At the center of the harbor.
Shattered boulders were still raining down.
The next second, a massive figure charged in from the side.
"You two—!"
"How dare you look down on me!"
Burgess stomped the ground apart.
His right fist was coated in thick Armament Haki, his entire arm bulging as he swung straight at Hancock and S-Snake.
"Get the hell out of my way!"
Hancock and S-Snake turned their heads at the same time.
Boom—!
Burgess's punch missed.
The stone paving across half the harbor shattered on the spot, huge chunks of rubble sent flying by the force of his fist.
"Where are they?"
Burgess had barely looked up when the sound of something cutting through the air came from both sides. One large and one small figure spun at once.
"Double Perfume Femur—!"
Bang! Bang!
Both flying kicks landed, and Burgess's expression changed sharply.
The spots struck—his left arm and right shoulder—rapidly turned grayish white.
—Petrification!
"What?!"
He let out a low roar.
Armament Haki erupted wildly across his body as he tried to forcibly suppress the spreading petrification.
He actually held it back for an instant, but only for an instant.
Hancock landed and turned, her long leg sweeping out again.
Almost at the same time, S-Snake lowered her body and kicked at his knee.
Bang!
Crack!
Burgess's chest jolted violently, and his knee rapidly turned grayish white as well.
The petrification could no longer be suppressed. In the blink of an eye, it crawled from his limbs over his entire body.
"You—"
Before he could finish cursing, his whole body had completely stiffened.
His enormous body remained frozen in the posture of throwing a punch, transformed into a stone statue standing amid the ruins.
S-Snake lifted her chin the moment she landed.
"This one is mine."
