Everyone on the ship erupted in uproar. They had long heard of Uchiha Hiko's name—supposedly, he had defeated the commander of the G5 base, a Sweet Commander, and one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. At the height of his fame, people all over the New World were imitating him. But news read in the papers had always felt somewhat unreal.
Now that they finally saw Uchiha Hiko make a move, and even the commander of the Germa army was instantly subdued, they finally witnessed Uchiha Hiko's formidable strength firsthand.
"What did you say?" Though Niji had been restrained by Hiko, his expression remained arrogant. "You dare threaten me?"
Crack!
Hiko exerted force through his arm, sending a surge of power jolting through Niji's arm. A bone-cracking sound rang out, and Niji's left arm snapped at once.
"Urgh!" Niji had no emotions, but he could still feel pain. He had not expected Uchiha Hiko to attack the moment he said he would, without the slightest hint of bluffing.
"Broken bones can still be set." Hiko sneered. "But if they're chopped off, I can't guarantee they can be reattached! Oh, one of my men can reattach severed limbs, but his price is much higher!"
Niji's eyes turned icy. Even with his arm broken by Uchiha Hiko, his unyielding attitude only made the teasing smile on Hiko's face deepen.
"You still don't seem to understand. The Germa army poses no threat to me whatsoever!" Hiko exerted force again. Niji's bones crackled and popped all over his body. Not only were his limbs shattered, but many other bones were broken as well. "I don't even put the Four Emperors in my eyes. Do you think your mere Germa can make me wary?"
The others on the ship fell silent as cicadas in
