200: Fierce Battle, Victory (5)

The next moment, four sharp white bones fell on his body. Two of them, one of which pierced his right upper arm, the sharp bone penetrating his flesh and bone at the same time.

Kankani's bones cracked; how could his bone strength compare to Kaguya she ate the Bone-Bone Fruit?

Another bone pierced his lower abdomen, penetrating deeply.

Despite the excruciating pain, Kankani's body trembled violently. The remaining two bone spurs were blocked by his steel arm guards, but even so, his arm guards were still pierced, with the bone tips embedded in his flesh.

Before he could even make a move, Kaguya had already pulled two bone swords she had created from her own body and swiftly attacked him. Kaguya wouldn't give him a single chance; in the battle, she maintained absolute rationality.

This is the perfect Killing Machine.

Seeing this, Kankani did not remove the bone spurs stuck in his body. Kaguya would not give him that time. Besides, removing the bone spurs would further hinder his combat ability.

Raising his fist and enduring the pain, Kankani faced Kaguya, fending off her Kaguya attacks.

The steel arm guards were slashed with numerous cuts, and his body was covered in bloody gashes from Kaguya's sharp blade. While fending off Kaguya's fierce attacks, Kankani was also looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

However, what he didn't notice was that the bone spurs on his body, and even the knife wounds Kaguya had inflicted on him, contained remnants of highly active bone tissue. This bone tissue seemed to be growing, flowing, and poised to erupt, waiting for a trigger.

With a fierce punch, Kankani seized an opportunity and threw a punch at Kaguya, aiming Kaguya for her face.

Compared to Kankani's physique, Kaguya was undoubtedly much smaller, which gave her great agility. Combined with her strong fighting instincts, Kaguya bent down and shifted her body to the right, avoiding the punch.

As Kaguya dodged the punch, a sharp bone spur suddenly emerged from Kaguya shoulder, pointing straight upwards, aimed directly at Kankani's approaching arm.

Caught off guard, Kankani's arm was pierced directly by the bone spur. "Bone Kai - Pierce!" Kaguya grabbed Kankani's arm tightly with one hand.

Kankani closed his eyes in pain and jerked backward, but was pulled back by Kaguya. Having witnessed Kaguya's abilities and heard the name of this technique, he could already imagine how dangerous it was.

In an instant, sharp bone spurs pierced through Kaguya's skin, protruding from Kaguya body. Under Kaguya's control, these sharp bone spurs hurtled towards Kankani.

However, Kankani had already left. In a desperate move to save his life, Kankani dodged the attack, but lost a hand in the process.

At that crucial moment, he gave up his hand. There was nothing he could do. He had already felt Kaguya's bone spurs. At such close range, those bone spurs would undoubtedly turn him into a beehive.

Kankani's decisiveness surprised Kaguya, but his fate was already sealed.

Watching Kankani retreat, Kaguya controlled the growth of bone, creating more bone.

Having just escaped Kaguya's clutches and before he could even catch his breath, Kankani froze, standing there dumbfounded. On his abdomen, the wound was now covered with a layer of white bone.

Meanwhile, the sharp bone that had pierced through his right upper arm had somehow disappeared, melted, and dissolved into his body and blood.

Also gone were the two bones that had pierced his wrist guard.

Kaguya can create bone and control its shape. When attacking Kankani, she generates bone that flows into his bloodstream and body through contact and wounds.

If there is only a small amount of bone in the body, it will not have any impact and will not harm a person's life. After a period of time, or if one distances oneself from Kaguya, this bone will lose Kaguya's control and disappear. This is a creation of Kaguya's ability.

However, if the opponent has too much bone material from Kaguya, they will end up like Kankani, under Kaguya's control, coughed up blood, looking pained and wide-eyed.

He was no longer in control of his own body. With so much of Kaguya's bone invading his body, it would have been better if those bone spurs stuck in his body had been removed beforehand.

Kankani lowered his head and looked at his chest, where a sharp bone spur was protruding, heading straight for his heart.

Kankani died at Kaguya's hands, just like that.

On the other side, Pito's fight was effortless. With his agile speed, his figure flashed around Xinzi constantly, and his sharp Cat Claws occasionally slashed at Xinzi.

In terms of reaction time, Xinzi was far inferior to Pito, and this was even more true in terms of speed.

Therefore, the initiative was firmly in Pito's hands. Xinzi was fighting very hard, raising his vigilance to the highest level, because if he was not careful, Pito might seize the opportunity.

Although Pito was fighting Xinzi and his gaze was fixed on Xinzi, he seemed somewhat distracted, his eyes vacant, as if his attention was elsewhere.

It turns out that Pito was watching Teach's fight even while he was fighting.

Pito's behavior angered Xinzi. Although he didn't know why Pito did this, he guessed it was because Pito didn't take him seriously.

Gripping his greatsword tightly in both hands, he, confident in his experience, wanted to teach this girl who underestimated him a lesson, and this was also his chance to turn the tide.

As for the battle inside the palace, they were very close to the battlefield inside the palace, and they could easily feel the huge commotion inside; the ground was trembling, as if an earthquake was happening.

Pito didn't use his full strength; he was multitasking, focusing most of his mind and attention on Teach and the others' main battlefield while fighting Xinzi!

In his battle with Xinzi, he mostly relied on his physical fighting instincts.

Maintaining a roughly the same rhythm, Xinzi gradually got used to it and figured out Pito's attack patterns, which had a clear pattern.

As Pito lunged at him with another claw, Xinzi already knew the direction of Pito's attack and dodged in advance.

Having dodged the claw, Xinzi shouted, "Die, brat!" and with all his might, swung his greatsword, aiming it directly at Pido, Pito attack had missed.

Xinzi's avoidance brought Pito back to his senses. He was a little surprised, but his expression didn't change.

Facing the greatsword slashing down, Pito raised an eyebrow slightly, reacting quickly.

She raised her paw, and from her furry palm, sharp Cat Claws extended further, gleaming coldly in the air.

Facing this powerful sword strike, Xinzi was no weakling. Pito in terms of speed. He was very confident in his full-force sword strike, and his eyes were filled with an excited smile, as if he could already see Pito being split in two by his greatsword.

However, in the next moment, his smile froze, as Pito's body moved instantly, easily dodging the attack.

Pito used Kami-e, releasing all his strength and controlling his body as easily as drawing on paper, nimbly dodging the sword strike during the battle.

While trying to dodge, Pito had already charged forward. How could Xinzi resist? At such close range, Xinzi's body simply couldn't react in time, coupled with the inertia from the immense force of swinging his sword with all his might.

Pito's figure appeared before him, his bright eyes so pure, yet they filled him with fear.

In these critical moments, amidst the threat of life and death and the carnage on the battlefield, Xinzi repeatedly faced the brink of death, but each time she survived.

Death and desperate situations can push people to their limits, unleashing power and abilities beyond their own capabilities.

Xinzi's eyes actually saw it; he saw Pito's movements, and at that moment, they were exceptionally clear.

His body moved involuntarily; he couldn't have done that in such a short time.

However, he actually managed to dodge Pito's sharp Claw Strike with pinpoint accuracy. At the same time, he withdrew his greatsword, then gripped it with both hands and slammed the blade down hard against Pito.

All of this caught Pito completely off guard. Instinctively, he raised his arm to block, and Xinzi's greatsword struck Pito directly.

Pito's body flew out, traveling more than twenty meters before stabilizing in mid-air. His legs landed on the ground, and Pito bent over, moving his body backward and rubbing against something.

Pido stopped and slowly straightened up, Pito gaze falling to the side. Kaguya had already dealt with her opponent and had no intention of interfering in her battle, waiting for her to finish. Only then did she realize that she had been focusing on Teach's fight and that she was now somewhat behind.

Pito possesses extremely keen perception. Her Observation Haki not only allows her to observe the battle situation on Teach's side, but also covers the entire palace inside and out. Her companions in other places have also finished their battles one after another and are rushing in this direction to watch Captain Teach's battle.

"Let's take care of you first." Pito curled her lip, her tone impatient. She didn't want to hold back anymore and wanted to eliminate this enemy in front of her directly.

As soon as he finished speaking, his cat-like eyes stared intently at Xinzi, and he crouched down slightly, leaning forward.

"Sizzle!" Pito's tight leg muscles seemed to swell, making a series of sounds.

Despite his small stature and slender build, Pito possesses astonishing strength and speed. Whether it's due to his Devil Fruit or his Pito talent, Pito's strength continues to increase, and his abilities are rapidly improving, seemingly unaffected by age or physical limitations.

This is a talent that even Teach: extraordinary innate abilities, powerful upper body strength, and sharp Cat Claws that can tear apart a person's body and head.

Her legs also possess extraordinary explosive power, allowing her to leap hundreds of meters in a single bound, reaching the enemy in an instant, naturally aided by the Life Return enhancement.

Pido's astonishing strength and speed will make Pito a nightmare for his enemies.

Now, Pito can be said to have grown up and fully demonstrated his talent, except that he has not yet learned Armament Haki.

Pito's Observation Haki release is accompanied by a strange magnetic field, which Pito can control. This is the special characteristic of Pito's Observation Haki. Being in such a magnetic field will make people feel irritable and have a strong malice. This malice is very oppressive and makes people feel fear.

Teach had studied this strange magnetic field, which could cause a reaction in the human brain, leading to a feeling of negative malice. It was precisely because of Pito's simple nature that he was able to bring out this effect, this negative malice, to its fullest extent.

Once their strength increases, such intense malice can easily break the spirit of most opponents, rendering them powerless to resist and causing them to be defeated without a fight.

"Black Child Dance Thought!" Pito's voice rang out, calm yet slightly cold.

His body radiated a pale red light, which was the manifestation of the strange magnetic field attached to Pito's Observation Haki, making anyone who saw him feel intense malice.

Black Child Dance Thought is Pito's strongest move, an ability used in all-out battle, an ultimate strike that takes only 0.1 seconds from initiation to attack.

Upon hearing Pito's words, Xinzi was about to retort, but the next moment, he froze, staring at Pito, his body trembling involuntarily. Looking at Pito, he felt a deep fear and sensed a profound malice from the bottom of his heart.

The next moment, Pito vanished from his spot, his body enveloped in a pale red light. The immense speed that erupted from his legs allowed him to pass right through Xinzi's body before Xinzi could even react.

Xinzi's arms were brutally torn off by Pito, and two fatal scratches appeared on Xinzi's neck.

Because it was too fast, Xinzi didn't have time to react before she died, her body slowly falling to the ground.

This was the first time Pito had used this move, and its power was astonishing, something even Pito himself hadn't anticipated. However, the final outcome was exactly as Pito had expected.

Inside the palace, Teach and Pande continued their battle amidst ruins. No one dared approach within 150 meters, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire of their fierce fight.

Faced with Pande, Teach Teach Pande's tentacles while simultaneously reaching out with Pande claws.

With a series of slashes, Teach's powerful whip kick also unleashed a massive, twenty-meter-long gust of wind.

Seeing this, Pande relied on his powerful tentacles to defend himself. Due to the vast difference in size, Pande's tentacles did not suffer significant damage from Teach's slash. At the same time, with Teach's current attack power, he managed to cut large wounds on Pande's tentacles.

Soon, with Pande's monstrous regenerative abilities, these wounds would heal again. Pande's tentacles did not bleed; they merely split open and then healed once more.
