Zephyr's Utter Shock

It's important to know that this enormous iron arm possesses the power to shatter anything. In the original story, even a Marine Vice Admiral of the Giant Tribe race would be easily defeated.

Its power is evident.

Unfortunately, Zephyr is already too old.

His body is no longer what it used to be in his youth. As a result, his arms are heavy, which slows down his movements.

Moreover, medication is required every time the Crusher is used in combat.

Sure enough, while attacking, Zephyr had already taken out the medicine and put it in his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Moke felt a pang of emotion.

Even heroes grow old, and Lian Po is past his prime...

Like Whitebeard, like Garp... they've long passed their prime. Especially in the original story, when Garp went to Hachinosu to rescue the runaway Koby, he punched Aokiji again and again, but didn't cause him much damage.

The treatment is jokingly referred to as "gua sha" by Bie Haifen.

But when Garp unleashed his first punch upon arriving on the island, seeing a group of pirates who could still stand up after being hit by his punch, he also realized that he was getting old.

Clearly, he realized this too.

My skills have declined significantly, and most importantly, my stamina has decreased drastically with age. I can barely unleash a few powerful moves before I get tired...

Moke didn't even draw his knife.

He threw a punch to meet the attack.

Their attacks collided violently in mid-air. The powerful force of the impact sent both of them flying backward in an instant.

Moke only took two steps back before regaining his balance, while Zephyr took seven or eight steps back before barely managing to stay upright.

He even trampled the ground.

This attack clearly gave Moke a significant advantage.

Zephyr's expression changed again, and his gaze towards Moke became extremely solemn. He knew that Moke was very strong and experienced, but... he really didn't expect that he would be at a disadvantage so quickly after just a probing attack.

This is troublesome!

His specialty is close combat, but now he's at a disadvantage in terms of strength. It seems he's in for a tough fight.

Fortunately, his mechanical arm isn't capable of long-range attacks.

"Smasher Blaster!"

Hanfa aimed the Crusher at Moke. Then, a powerful barrage erupted from the Crusher...

Brush!

Moke simply tilted his head slightly, easily dodging the attack.

"Rumble..."

The next second, the shell exploded a hundred meters behind Moke. The explosion created a powerful Shockwave that swept around, making the clothes on the two men rustle loudly.

"Shave!"

The next second, Moke vanished from his spot. Clearly, he had entered a high-speed movement state.

"Cut..."

Zephyr showed a disdainful expression. However, despite his disdain, he used his Observation Haki to its fullest extent.

The next instant, he turned his head to look at the area to his right. There he was, pointing his index finger at that spot and poking it.

"Shigan!"

At the same time, their hands were wrapped in Armament Haki.

Immediately afterward, Moke appeared in that spot, immediately seeing the finger pointing at him, his expression slightly changing. He then pointed back...

"Collapse..."

A powerful force exploded between the two fingers. The strong recoil once again sent both of them flying. However, this time, it was far more intense than before. Even Moke was sent flying by this force!

However, after somersaulting in the air, it landed steadily at a height of ten meters.

But Zephyr was in a terrible state; he was sent flying backward, crashing into everything within a hundred meters and destroying it. In the end, he crashed into a small building, burying him completely underneath.

"Gurgle..."

Reiju couldn't help but swallow.

He murmured, "Is this the Admiral between a veteran naval Admiral and one of the Four Emperors?"

She could tell that neither Moke nor Zephyr had gone all out. Yet, even so, the level they had reached was comparable to that of Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji.

Only now did she truly understand just how terrifying the strength of the Marine Admiral and the Four Emperors was.

"Shave!"

Moke disappeared from the spot once again, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of the collapsed building.

"Fist Shock!"

Moke clenched his fist and then swung it out violently. Terrifying power, imbued with even more terrifying Armament Haki, erupted directly.

This created an unprecedented impact.

It blasted a huge crater into the area dozens of meters in front of them.

"Um?"

But to everyone's surprise, Zephyr disappeared.

At that moment, Zephyr's furious roar echoed through the air, "Boy, aren't you underestimating me...? I'm not only a former Marine Admiral, but also the Dean of the Marine Academy. Most of the naval officers and soldiers are my students."

Moke looked up and saw him using Geppo to fly through the air.

Moreover, a gust of Tempest Kick Slash was already heading towards him.

That's more like it!

As the head instructor of the naval academy, who trained so many outstanding naval officers, and being a master of physical combat himself, how could he possibly not know the Navy's signature Six Powers of martial arts?

However, Moke remained completely unperturbed.

He swung his leg across the ground, and a similarly powerful Tempest Kick Slash erupted, meeting Zephyr's Tempest Kick Slash head-on.

"Rumble..."

The two Tempest Kick Slash collided violently in mid-air.

"Rokushiki Ogi - Moon Shave..."

Brush!

Zephyr, who was in the air, suddenly disappeared into the plains, and when he reappeared, he was already beside Moke.

"Smasher Tornado!"

Zephyr used the Crusher to smash the ground, causing it to crack and sending Moke flying into the air. Then he fired a series of Gatling gun-like bullets at Moke in mid-air... a very dense barrage.

It directly enveloped Moke.

"Clang clang clang clang..."

Most of the bullets hit Moke, but it was as if they had hit a metal plate. Not only did they fail to injure Moke in the slightest, but they were all bounced off as he fell to the ground.

"Ah, this..."

Reiju was completely stunned when she saw this. You see, all of Zephyr's bullets in this attack were coated with Armament Haki.

However, Moke managed to block it entirely with his own body.

That's right.

He relied entirely on his own body, without using any abilities, physical techniques, or even Armament Haki...

What kind of body is this?

He murmured to himself, "Even the strange defenses of Ichiji, Niji, Yonji can't be broken, right?"

With such a powerful physique, one is practically invincible.

Zephyr, of course, also witnessed this scene, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

His face was filled with disbelief.

He couldn't believe that such a powerful body existed in the world.

How can we fight like this?

They can't even break through the defenses!

This made him think of a race... the Lunarian Tribe... a powerful race whose flames never die and whose bodies are indestructible. Compared to the Celestial Dragons, the Lunarian Tribe are more like descendants of gods.

But there was no flame behind Su Jun!

Her skin isn't brown either!
