Inferior Power!
"It seems they were attracted by the bloodlust over there."
Levi's deep gaze met the fiery red eyes of a 'Special Kabane' that was also perched on a tree branch in the distance.
Speaking of which...
The two 'Half-Blade Knife' in his hands were also covered with a layer of 'Kabane's Heart Membrane', so there were blood vessel-like red lines on the blades, which further enhanced the toughness of the 'Half-Blade Knife'.
Besides.
The gas tank for the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear on the waist has also been improved using the 'McRucky Engine' technology from the 'Kabane World'.
The main effect is to increase the compression of the 'Iceburst Stone gas', thereby increasing the jet power of the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear by about one-third.
It's just faster.
At the same time, the usage time of a single canister of gas has been increased by about two hours.
The most crucial point is that if you run out of 'Iceburst Stone', you can fill the container with water as a substitute for energy, although the power output will be much weaker than that of 'Iceburst Stone'.
But for Levi, it was still much better than moving on two legs, because he wasn't used to fighting without the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear.
"Skill Taker."
"A type of Kabane who has mastered a certain Swordsmanship or Physical Arts and is more agile and powerful than a regular Kabane."
"And the black armor it wears and the black sticky threads that shoot out from its palms are actually the same substance."
"This ability originally belonged to the 'Nue' form of the Kabaneri, but some special Kabane whose physical strength reaches a certain level will also Awakening this ability."
Just as Stella was explaining the Kabane information to the audience from the four worlds.
In the live stream, Levi and the knife-wielding Kabane leaped from the tree branches almost simultaneously, charging towards each other using their respective Omni-Directional Mobility Gear and black sticky threads.
[Clang!]
A black shadow mixed with red light collided heavily with a green shadow mixed with yellow.
The katana in Kabane's hand, almost as long as Levi's height, clashed fiercely with the two ' Half-Blade Knife 'Samurai that Levi gripped tightly, creating bright Starfire.
At this almost face-to-face distance, Levi noticed that the Kabane's blade also had fiery red, vein-like patterns.
This made him curse inwardly; the World Government really had equipped it with everything!
The next moment.
Levi felt an irresistible force pressing down on the opponent's blade. He didn't try to withstand it, but instead dodged to the side and used the steel cable to quickly dart between the trees.
"Roar!!"
Kabane saw the 'food' and tried to run away, it roared and used the black sticky threads sprayed from its palms to give chase.
The two sides engaged in a fierce one-on-one battle amidst the vast green sea of trees.
Gradually, Levi discovered that although this guy was very strong and his black armor was indeed tough, he was far inferior to him in speed and agility, and his Swordsmanship was also much worse.
"Perfect, I'll use you to test my new ability, monster from Otherworld!"
The next moment.
Levi controlled the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear to unleash 'Ice Blast High-Pressure Gas' once again, instantly increasing his speed as he charged towards the Kabane. At the same time, he repeated his previous tactic, spinning at supersonic speed once more.
However, this time the change is different.
The visible whirlwinds grew more numerous, denser, and thicker. In the blink of an eye, his figure vanished, transforming into a horizontally moving green Tatsumaki that engulfed the Kabane who was slashing with his sword into a dense barrage of Wind Blade.
"Wind Breathing, First Form, Dust Whirlwind - Slash!"
This scene left Ikoma, Hozumi, the Ubuyashiki family, and Shinobu Kocho, all from three different worlds, utterly astonished.
Even Imu was secretly amazed.
"An Ackerman from the Giant World, on an island in the world of One Piece, attacks using the Breathing Technique from the Demon Slayer World, and a special Kabane of the Skill Taker Type from the Kabane World —what an amazing scene!"
He turned to Historia sitting beside him and said casually, "It seems Levi is making good use of the resources you've been given."
Levi was the strongest Ackerman bodyguard under the enemy, so she used her power as the Empress to secure some high-level resources for Levi and Mikasa over the past few months.
Including the 'Wind Breathing Technique', the 'Perfect Type I Cell Strengthening Serum', and a Paramecia Devil Fruit, they also had their Omni-Directional Mobility Gear, 'Half-Blade Knife', and their clothes modified.
Imu was naturally aware of these things, since Historia always needed to inform him beforehand whenever she wanted something.
If he's busy.
You can also inform the Ubuyashiki Sisters, and they can report it to you when they have time; that wouldn't be considered a violation.
"Levi chose a good Devil Fruit ability."
Imu watched as Levi, displaying the sword technique of "Wind Breathing," defeated the "Skill Taker Kabane" in just a few rounds and then swiftly flew towards the central river once again.
Obviously.
No matter how special this Kabane, it is no match for the enhanced 'Dwarf Giant'.
Perhaps the 'Nue' form of Kabaneri could work.
Just as Imu was wondering under what circumstances Levi would use his Devil Fruit power, his sharp eyes caught a glimpse of an image on another screen next to him.
"Enlarge the perspective of Biba Amatori!"
"Yes."
A technician quickly typed on the keypad controlling the twelve Visual Den Den Mushi, and a few seconds later, Biba Amatori, who was in the middle of a battle, replaced Levi as the main character on the virtual screen.
West Blue Region, Royeia Island.
[Boom!!]
Suddenly, a massive explosion occurred on the eastern side of the island, less than two kilometers from the central river, penetrating through a forest that stretched for three to four hundred meters.
In the center of the forest clearing, now completely reduced to ruins, a hazy figure stood amidst the thick smoke and dust.
"Beautiful horse."
Beyond the smoke and dust, a woman covered in menacing black armor, with a ghostly blue light emanating from her chest, slowly lowered her right palm. "Is this the new power you gained after giving up 'Nue'?"
Horobi, expressionless, stared at the figure, feigning ignorance.
"Yes."
As Rafale wind dispersed the dust, Biba Amatori, dressed in a pink suit, slowly appeared, his handsome face still bearing a very approachable smile.
"While the 'Nue' can greatly enhance our Divine Power and even allow us to sense the fear in others, it also eliminates the possibility of further physical enhancement and prevents us from consuming Devil Fruit."
"What a despicable power!"
A look of disgust flashed in Biba Amatori's eyes as she looked at the way the Horobi.
He then turned his raised hand in front of him, his eyes filled with admiration. He had just used it to block the 'Fear Energy Bullet' fired by the opponent.
"Compared to other species, the Sea Star Person's physique, the Rokushiki of Physical Arts, and this incomparably powerful Haki can be described as a high-level power comparable to Divine Power!"
"Once I obtain another Logia Devil Fruit, I too can become an elemental god like Lord Crocodile!"
After hearing this, the Horobi could only sigh inwardly.
"Inferior, but this is the power you wanted most back then. Do you remember how many lives were sacrificed for Souei Wei's experiments in order to obtain the power of 'Nue'?"
She was one of them too.
"Heh, who would remember something so trivial?"
Biba Amatori smiled dismissively.
"By the way, I heard you've become Captain Guts' woman. Congratulations. It seems you're also trying to climb the ladder in your own way. So I won't kill you, but could you please stay away from me?"
