"Huh? Did it work?! No, who are you? Do you want to join the war too?"
As the blade pierced Sabo's body, spurting out a large amount of blood, Jessicano thought the battle was over. However, at the last moment, the blade deviated from its trajectory and was slashed open by the little girl in front of her with her sword. It only pierced Sabo's right chest and was stuck in the bone.
"Thank you so much! Although I don't know who you are, I still need you to leave. This place is too dangerous; it's not something a woman like you should get involved in. Quickly leave while I hold him off..."
Hey, miss, are you listening to me? We'll be late if we don't hurry!
Sabo glanced anxiously at Catherine, who had suddenly appeared beside him to save his life, but saw that she didn't seem to listen to him and leave obediently. Instead, she was staring intently at Jessicano, her fighting spirit as if she wanted to compete with him. Sabo quickly tried to persuade her.
"Hehehe, no need to try and persuade me anymore. I wasn't here to save you at all; I only intervened to spar with him, Revolutionary Army Sabo!!"
Catherine did not obediently turn around and leave as Sabo had told her. Instead, she shook her head and explained her purpose. At the same time, the aura of a swordsman slowly rose from her body, and she stared at him with fierce fighting spirit.
"Hahaha, very good, very good! I never expected to encounter so many powerful opponents on the same day. It seems that choosing to join Lord Carlos's ranks was a very wise decision. Very well, let me test just how strong you are, swordsman! One Flash... Swallow Reversal!!"
After saying that, Jessicano Noble swung his hand back, and a silver-white slash flew down.
clatter...
clatter...
clatter...
" The Flowing Shadow... Severed!!"
Faced with this attack, Catherine did not dodge, but instead ran straight to meet it. She leaped into the air and slashed at the oncoming strike. With a One Flash sword light, Jessicano's strike was cut in two.
Bang... Bang...
The separate slashes struck the wall behind Catherine with a loud boom.
"Hahaha, very good, your strength is quite impressive. Then take this attack from me again, Iai... Tiger Slash!!"
Yes, Jessicano used the same move as before, only slightly less powerful. The slash transformed into a white Raging Tiger roaring towards the sky and Rush forward.
"A tiger? It's less powerful than the Giant Dragon from before, but it's useless against me. Flowing Light... Tch!!"
As she spoke, Catherine swung her sword down from mid-air with both hands. A flash of light appeared, and the sword energy instantly transformed into a giant tiger. Jessicano's white tiger, formed from the sword energy, ran a few steps before being cut in half, turning into pure slashes that scattered on the ground.
Clang... clang...
The two slashes struck the ground, creating violent shockwaves and leaving two deep craters.
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad, let's do it again!!"
call out...
As soon as he finished speaking, Jessicano disappeared from Catherine's sight.
"Is that... Geppo? I didn't expect Carlos to be so skilled; he even managed to teach his subordinates a secret technique from the Navy."
"Shave!!"
Catherine was surprised to see Jessicano's body suddenly disappear from her sight. She muttered something and used Shave to give chase.
Swoosh...
brush...
Clang!!
call out...
Clang!!
Swoosh...
Clang!!
In a very short time, the two sides clashed several times. Each time they fought, they quickly separated and then intertwined again. Sword light flashed all around, accompanied by a series of collision sounds. The two sides had already exchanged dozens of blows, but neither could gain the upper hand.
Meanwhile, as Catherine and Jessicano clashed, Phil and Fukelike, who had just entered the fray, also engaged in a fierce battle.
"Unforgivable! Absolutely unforgivable! How dare you eat the Devil Fruit we prepared! No matter who you are, I, Fukelike, will not let you go. Are you prepared to face my wrath?"
Savage... Charge!!
After finishing his speech with a blank expression, Fukelike leaped forward, transforming into a Giant wild boar and charging towards him with its powerful limbs.
"Hmph, just in time. Let me try out this new ability I just acquired: Speed Domain... Supersonic Heavy Punch!!"
Seeing the charging Colossal Beast, Phil showed no panic. A slight smile played on his lips as he extended his right hand. A pale blue light flowed beneath his palm and scattered around him, forming a circular area with a radius of about 2 meters. Within this area, Phil swung his right fist forward, his arm moving at supersonic speed, hurtling towards Fukelike's pig head.
Bang...
The fist imprint landed directly on the Colossal Beast's head, stopping its forward -Charge body. The overflowing fist force created ripples that spread through the air.
Tap... Tap... Tap...
After being punched directly in the face, the Colossal Beast that Fukelike had transformed into was unsteady on its feet and staggered back several steps, each step leaving a crater in its wake.
Buzzing...
Fukelike felt a buzzing in his head, and after shaking his head a few times, he finally calmed down.
brush...
The Colossal Beast quickly transformed back into its Human-Beast Form, took a step back to steady itself, and stared at Phil with a serious expression for a long time before finally speaking.
"You're quite good... That was the power of the Speed-Speed Fruit, right? It's incredibly powerful, and you managed to unleash such power in such a short time. You're no ordinary person!"
Who are you? There are many people here today, but I don't think I've seen you before. Someone as strong as you shouldn't be an unknown figure!
Clearly, Phil's demonstrated abilities had earned his approval, which was why Fukelike asked for his name. After all, ordinary people wouldn't even catch his eye, given that his head was worth 390 million Beli.
Moreover, most people wouldn't have such a high level of ability to use Devil Fruit. Only those with exceptional talent can master it so quickly and apply it in battle, just like Phil in front of us.
"Me?! I am Frank D. Phil from the South Blue, a fighter who entered the Grand Line in pursuit of greater power."
I happened to learn about something amazing that was going to be auctioned off a few days ago, which is how I managed to sneak in. I never expected it to be a treasure from the ocean! When I first heard the high bid, I was shocked; I thought I was going to miss out.
To be honest, I really have to thank you all for this plan. Without you, I wouldn't have gained such amazing abilities. Now, let me show you what I'm capable of again... Extreme Speed... Million-Style Onslaught!!
Ah da da da da..."
After explaining the situation, Phil launched another counterattack against Fukelike.
Bang bang bang...
A series of fist Shadow Flash, making it almost impossible to see the trajectory of his punches. Although Phil did not put much power into these punches, the force of the punches was still stronger due to the high speed, and they hit Fukelike.
boom...
Faced with these attacks, Fukelike didn't swing his arms but instead placed his hands in front of his chest to block all of Phil's attacks. However, he still couldn't withstand Phil's powerful and relentless punches. The floor beneath his feet gradually cracked and then exploded, and his body was blasted away at the same time.
