Phantom God Twins (1)

"Well said! Then today, I'll show you my real skills!"

Burufatt tore off his jacket, revealing the short shirt underneath and his streamlined upper body muscles.

You couldn't tell when he was wearing his jacket, but Burufatt's muscles weren't as bulky as one might imagine; on the contrary, they were very well-proportioned and coordinated.

"If you lose, remember to change how you address me!"

Stretching his arms and assuming a Fish-Man Karate stance, Burufatt's aura gradually became dangerous.

"No problem! A gentleman's word is his bond!"

"Good!"

"Gulp~ B-Brother Burufatt is serious!" A fighter under Burufatt's command couldn't help but swallow as he saw his stance.

"Fish-Man Karate—Grass Pattern Tile Straight Punch!"

From a considerable distance, Burufatt threw a punch. The air in front of him instantly vibrated like ripples, and then a powerful impact exploded forward violently!

"Don't bother showing me moves of this caliber, old man."

Oshi felt the impact coming at her. Without any attempt to dodge, she took the blow head-on with her body.

The powerful impact hit Oshi's body, but the result was merely a plume of dust. The small figure only swayed slightly, not even taking a step back.

[This kid's physical strength... quite interesting!] Kaido was increasingly satisfied with Oshi's performance.

"Fish-Man Karate—Strike Water!" Several water masses, like cannonballs, attacked Oshi's position under the cover of the dust.

"I was expecting this from you!"

Ever since her last encounter with Obe, Oshi had become particularly sensitive to tactics involving dust clouds. Thus, she merely shifted her body slightly to evade the Strike Water.

"It's my turn to counter, Pirate Great Iron Fist!"

The moment she dodged the attack, Oshi charged forward and threw her right fist.

Although the name sounded strange, this was a fist genuinely imbued with Armament Haki.

On the way here, Oshi had secretly discussed with Obe that they wouldn't use their divine powers in this match, but would defeat their opponents using only Haki.

This was mainly because the two wanted to verify their Haki levels. Of course, there was also a small part of them fearing that Ra would notice that they still hadn't made any progress in controlling their divine powers.

Returning to reality, the fist without any divine power attached looked ordinary. However, such a simple and unadorned attack brought Kaido and the other two a shock far greater than anything before.

Kaido glanced deeply at Ra.

[As expected of blood relatives, their talent is terrifyingly strong! What is the origin of these three brats...]

On the other side, Burufatt's eyes widened abruptly.

"Flowing Armament Haki, how is that possible!"

This was a supreme skill that few in the New World, a place teeming with powerhouses, had managed to master. Those who could master the flowing technique of Armament Haki were all first-class experts on this sea!

"When did you learn this?!"

Burufatt, who had been preparing to counter the punch head-on, immediately retracted his arm and retreated to dodge the punch. However, he was still repelled several steps by the force of the attack.

"Learn what?"

Seeing her punch miss, Oshi did not immediately initiate her next move.

"The flow of Armament Haki! How did you learn it?" Burufatt, having adjusted his body, asked again with a shocked tone.

"Sister Ra taught me? It's not a difficult thing to learn? What are you so surprised about... Oh~ Hehehe~ Bull-headed uncle, you don't mean to tell me you can't do it~"

Oshi suddenly had a mischievous smile on her face as if she had thought of something.

"If you respectfully call me 'Teacher Oshi' three times, this young lady might mercifully teach you~"

"What an arrogant brat!"

"Alright, it seems I'll have to use some of my trump cards today. I can't be defeated by a little girl in front of my brothers."

The successive setbacks finally made Burufatt get serious.

"Fish-Man Karate—Water Illusion Strike Fist!" A cloud of water mist rose again, followed by countless indistinguishable fists fiercely attacking Oshi.

"Muda muda! The same move is useless against a Saint!"

Oshi, relying on her keen Observation Haki and agile movements, easily dodged all of Burufatt's punches.

"I wouldn't be so foolish as to think a deciphered move would still work on you! Watch this, kid."

"Fish-Man Karate—Spear Wave Shower!"

The water droplets in the air, under Burufatt's movements, transformed into countless dense, tiny bullets that attacked Oshi from all directions.

Oshi, unable to dodge, instinctively shielded her eyes with both arms.

Although the water droplets had immense power, Oshi, defending with Armament Haki, was still unharmed.

"Now! Fish-Man Karate—Demon Tile Straight Punch!"

A powerful punch, far exceeding its previous might, directly hit Oshi. Due to her small size, Burufatt's fist almost struck her entire torso.

Oshi turned into a streak of red light, flying backward at a speed far exceeding how quickly Burufatt had been sent flying earlier.

"When your Observation Haki isn't trained, covering your eyes during a fight is quite dangerous, Red-haired brat."

Watching the dust kicked up in the distance, Burufatt slowly retracted his fist.

"She... she flew out, that kid!"

"It's the Demon Tile Straight Punch! Is Brother Burufatt really getting serious?!"

"Isn't that kid dead? Why isn't there any movement?"

"Probably not~ I don't see any reaction from Lady Ra's side at all."

Oshi, lying on the ground in the distance, didn't respond.

Honestly, taking that punch head-on without time to defend with Haki was quite unpleasant, making her feel a little nauseous.

"Inhale~ Exhale~~"

She silently circulated Divine Power within her body, and the urge to vomit quickly subsided.

This was a method Ra had taught her for quickly recovering her state. In just a few breaths, Oshi's body had returned to normal.

However, she didn't rush to get up. She remained still, lying on the ground, while her mind continuously replayed the recent combo—first using an illusion to draw her attention, then a saturation attack to distract her, and finally, the real killing blow delivered when she least expected it...

[As expected, none of these old dogs who've been around the sea for years are simple!

But if it were Sister Ra, she probably wouldn't fall for it, right? It's hard to imagine her being ambushed...]

For some reason, Oshi thought of Ra and her peculiar Observation Haki, which was like an [Epitaph]. Her thoughts then spiraled further and further off track until someone couldn't help but call out to her.

"Hey! Oshi, you slacker, are you planning to sleep there until dinner?

Hurry up and finish this fight, I still need to get on stage and teach this masked man a lesson!" Obe, standing at the edge of the training ground, couldn't help but urge Oshi on.

"Got it, got it! I was just thinking~"

Oshi slowly got up at the sound, dusting the dirt off her face. Her clothes, woven by Ra, hadn't gotten dirty at all.

"Yo~ Uncle, that punch just now was good~ A spectacular three-hit combo!"

With a confident smile curving her lips, Oshi walked back to the center of the training ground, her head held high.

"Are you ready now? Round two!"

"You brat, you're truly a monster through and through."

Burufatt couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at Oshi, who seemed completely fine.

He hadn't held back much with that punch; it was almost the maximum power he'd use in a sparring match. Anything more, and he wouldn't be able to stop himself from delivering a killing blow.

"If you're not going to make a move, I will~ I'll show you something good."

Oshi walked back to her original position and stopped, striking a familiar pose.

Burufatt froze when he saw her stance.

"This is!"
