Just as Bullet was about to deliver the final blow and kill Randall for good, the sea suddenly began to churn.
It felt as though a pillar holding up the heavens had plunged into the sea and was stirring it relentlessly.
The seawater erupted into turmoil, raging currents sweeping everything into their grasp.
Randall, utterly spent, was dragged in without the slightest ability to resist.
Bullet stopped just as he was about to charge forward, then shot backward at top speed.
His Armament Haki had no trouble holding back a calm sea.
He could even withstand the water pressure ten thousand meters beneath the surface.
But he could not withstand these surging currents and the forces tearing in every direction.
So he decisively retreated.
The scene relayed by his Observation Haki proved that he had made the right choice.
Not far away, an enormous whirlpool was spinning wildly, dragging everything toward it.
Bullet had been so focused on beating Randall that he had paid no attention to anything else.
All along, they had been drawing closer and closer to that natural disaster from earlier—the super whirlpool.
Bullet glanced at Randall, who had already been swept to the whirlpool's outer edge, curled his lip, then turned and left.
In his view, Randall's injuries alone would make survival unlikely without immediate treatment.
And now that he had been dragged into a whirlpool of this scale, how could he possibly survive?!
Bullet had better get out of there. If he waited until the whirlpool reached him, even he might be done for.
Meanwhile, Randall was in dire straits inside the whirlpool.
He had already been on the verge of passing out.
The whirlpool's churning and the currents' pulling sent him straight into unconsciousness.
The currents tore at his body, and blood kept seeping
