"Is this how the new Shichibukai attacks? What a hassle." Reiju dodged the waves and hovered in midair. She shouted, "Yuji, how long are you going to keep playing around?"
In the sea, Yuji's jet shoes blasted out two streams of water, propelling him into the air. He snarled, "I'm going to tear him apart!!" When had he ever suffered such humiliation? He was the finest masterpiece of Germa 66—a war machine that had always crushed its opponents. When had he ever been treated like this?
"That kind of trick can confuse you too?"
"That was an accident! I absolutely won't be fooled by that trick a second time! Just wait, Reiju! I'll kill this guy!" With that, the jet shoes beneath his feet suddenly shot away.
"Fire Release: Head Carving Bitter!"
Fire-natured Chakra gathered in his mouth into a tiny fireball, which shot out in an instant.
"You dare show off such a pitiful trick in front of me?"
Yuji did not dodge. He prepared to catch the fireball with his bare hand!
Boom!
The violently condensed and compressed Chakra exploded the instant it touched Yuji. The power of a B-rank ninjutsu was considerable. Another figure was sent flying and fell into the water once more.
Reiju: "..."
Weren't you going to teach him a lesson?
It was only because of the Germa combat suit on Yuji's body and his modified physique. An ordinary person would have been seriously injured at best—or dead—after taking that attack. Judging by his condition, this guy was only moderately hurt. Not lightly, but not seriously either.
"This is the first time I've seen someone with such a hard head. Head Engraving Bitter is even more powerful than a cannon shell, yet he took it head-on at point-blank range. What a hard head." Rodney
