Mythical Zoan

"That is..."

"Hey, hey, hey, could that be it?!"

"Seriously?"

"That's right, it's the legendary Zoan Type—Mythical Zoan—the Mud-Swamp Frog Fruit!"

The spectator stands instantly erupted, every face showing envy and jealousy!

This was a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, even rarer than a Logia Devil Fruit!

"Hahaha!"

"Luo Sa, compared to you, I was only lacking a Devil Fruit!"

"Now that I've obtained this Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, you're no longer my match!"

"Your Bird-Bird Fruit is trash compared to my Mud-Swamp Frog Fruit!"

Sakartam burst into hearty laughter, his voice brimming with confidence and disdain!

"Is that so?"

As his voice rang out, two more wind blades slashed fiercely forward!

Boom!

Just as the wind blades were about to strike Sakartam, he suddenly burrowed into the ground and actually vanished beneath it!

As the explosion rang out, the ground was blasted into a huge crater, but Sakartam was nowhere to be seen!

"An Earth Style ability?"

"You think hiding underground will keep you safe?!"

"I remember that aside from earthquakes, this move is also very useful against enemies underground!"

Luo Sa sneered inwardly. Then, the Normal-type energy throughout his body suddenly began to surge!

"Supersonic!"

The next moment, an invisible sound wave burst from his mouth, covering the entire battlefield!

In the game, Supersonic was described as emitting special sound waves from the body to confuse the opponent.

But the effect of Supersonic in the anime was even stronger. Its impact could leave both Pokémon and humans in extreme discomfort.

Silently and invisibly, the Supersonic shockwave swept toward the ground and surged deep underground!

"Damn it!"

"What is this?"

"Stop! Stop it!"

Suddenly, furious roars echoed from deep underground. The ground burst open, and a tan frog shot out from beneath it.

"As you wish!"

Luo Sa sneered and stopped his Supersonic attack. In its place came two powerful wind blades!

"Mud Cannonball!"

Sakartam knew that if he burrowed underground, his opponent would definitely use that Supersonic attack again. Forced into a corner, he could only face him head-on!

Boom!

In midair, the Mud Cannonball and wind blades collided violently!

Screech!

Almost instantly, the Mud Cannonball was sliced apart by the wind blades!

In a direct clash, the Mud-Swamp Frog Fruit Sakartam had only just obtained was completely unable to contend with Luo Sa's long-developed Wind Power!

"Damn it!"

Sakartam let out an irritated growl and burrowed into the ground once more.

"Supersonic!"

Luo Sa snorted coldly and used Supersonic again.

But this time, Sakartam seemed determined to endure it, actually hiding underground without coming out!

Luo Sa remained unhurried. Supersonic did not consume much Normal-type energy, and he refused to believe Sakartam could withstand it for long!

"Damn it!"

Sakartam roared and burst out of the ground. In the end, he could no longer endure the brain-piercing sonic assault!

"Hurricane!"

Luo Sa, who had long been prepared, instantly unleashed his strongest move. Flying Attribute energy surged wildly through his entire body!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

In an instant, a violent gale erupted, whipping up sand and stones. Powerful Wind Power ravaged the air, darkening heaven and earth!

Sakartam's expression changed drastically. He still vividly remembered Luo Sa using this move before—the Monkey had died beneath it.

He immediately launched a counterattack, spewing countless Mud Cannonballs from his mouth.

But the Mud Cannonballs came to an abrupt halt the moment they touched the gale in midair.

The next moment, the gale swept the Mud Cannonballs down from the sky.

Boom!

Sakartam's body was instantly hurled into the air. The Flying Attribute within the gale turned into blades of wind, carried along by the raging currents.

They began cutting through Sakartam's body again and again, stripping away the layers of mud covering him as flecks of blood scattered through the air.

"Control over water?"

"Looks like I can't let you live!"

"Die!"

Sakartam's earlier question flashed through Luo Sa's mind, and killing intent burst from his eyes!

In an instant, even more Flying Attribute energy surged into the gale, turning it into a tornado that shot straight into the sky!

"This is bad! Save Sakartam, quickly!" Akainu was the first to notice something was wrong and abruptly rose to his feet.

The next moment, Kizaru vanished from beside him, transforming into a streak of golden light that shot into the tornado!

"Ohoho, what a truly terrifying gale, Luo Sa!"

A lecherous voice came from within the tornado.

The next moment, countless golden rays ravaged the tornado and reduced it to nothingness.

"Kizaru!"

Luo Sa stopped beating his wings and hovered in midair, staring gravely at the figure who had suddenly appeared.

"Ah, Luo Sa, you won."

Kizaru gave Luo Sa an amused look and announced the result in the referee's place.

"Whew, the battle is finally over. Thank you, Admiral Kizaru. That was truly a hard-fought battle."

Luo Sa smiled at Kizaru, though the hand hidden behind his back had long since clenched into a fist, his nails digging deeply into his flesh.

I was only one step away, damn it!

Still, the moment he saw Kizaru appear, he knew there was no hope. He had no way to eliminate this threat for the time being.

"Hahahaha, that was truly a wonderful battle. As expected of Vice Admiral Garp's grandson—the newcomers these days are getting more and more terrifying."

Kizaru laughed heartily and gave Luo Sa a lecherous grin before turning into golden light and returning to his seat.

"Don't test my patience, Sakartam!"

Luo Sa coldly left those words behind and turned to leave. Now, he could only hope Sakartam would keep his mouth shut!

In the arena, Sakartam lay sprawled on the ground like an old dog. When he looked at Luo Sa now, there was nothing left in his eyes but boundless terror.

He opened his mouth where he lay, then finally swallowed the words already on the tip of his tongue with difficulty, his face filled with confusion.

Just now, he had truly felt death descending upon him!

If Kizaru had not been a Glint-Glint Fruit user, he would certainly have died!

"No, this Luo Sa is too terrifying!"

"He wanted to kill me. I could feel it—he wanted to kill me!"

"Damn it!"

Scene after scene of his encounters with Luo Sa flashed through Sakartam's mind.

He suddenly realized that this Luo Sa really seemed like the kind of person who would directly kill every single enemy!

What kind of person was he?!

Sakartam's gaze flickered, as though he had vaguely made some sort of decision!

Fine, fine, I'm just that softhearted. It'll be fine if you meet my requirements after National Day. Then I'll go all out—but you can't bully an honest man!
