boom...
Fukelike rose again from the rubble, his body gradually emitting crimson steam, his skin turning slightly red. Amidst the swirling steam, Fukelike's blood-red eyes shot out two beams of red light, shining directly on Phil.
"Hmm... Is this... increasing my strength by accelerating blood flow in my body? But how long can this last?"
Seeing the changes in him, Phil, being an expert in combat and with a thorough understanding of his own body, could naturally guess how Fukelike had achieved this state, and quipped slightly.
"Hmph, as long as my stamina isn't completely depleted before my abilities Awakening, I can continue. But I need to remind you that right now you should be concerned about your own safety, not whether my body can withstand... Savage Charge... Blast!!"
Swoosh...
Having said that, Fukelike launched an attack on Phil. He lunged forward, leaving only a shadow in his wake. His speed quickly exceeded the speed of sound, and with a loud bang, he appeared in front of Phil Charge down violently.
Bang...
Before Phil could react to Fukelike's sudden increase in speed, he was tossed about like a broken rag doll, spitting out a mouthful of blood as he fell to the ground with a thud.
Swoosh...
"What's wrong? Can't keep up with my speed already? I still have many moves to unleash on you... War Iron Hooves... Trample!!"
Fukelike pushed off the ground and landed above Phil, mocking his performance without any restraint.
Having said that, he used his limbs, which were as hard as steel and even harder than steel, to Rush down with his hooves, which were wrapped in Armament Haki.
"Not good..."
Faced with that powerful blow, Phil knew he couldn't withstand it, so he immediately used all his strength to move away from the spot. Boom! Another roar rang out as Fukelike's steel-like hooves shattered the stone floor below. The stones cracked inch by inch, and the cracks continued to spread, causing Phil, who had just escaped the danger zone, and the floor he was leaning against to collapse.
call out...
Fukelike returned to the spot shrouded in dust and smoke, using his Observation Haki to probe for Phil's presence.
"Hmm... no response? Dead? Looks like I overestimated you. I thought you'd become stronger after getting that ability and give me some fun, huh? Turns out you're just a piece of trash... Pah!!"
Not sensing Phil's presence, Fukelike assumed he had been defeated by his attack and spoke with utter disdain, spitting on the ground to express his contempt.
Tap... Tap... Tap...
After finishing, he turned and walked towards another battlefield without lingering.
"Um..."
Suddenly, after taking only a few steps, Fukelike abruptly stopped, as if sensing something, and clenched his right fist, swinging it to his side.
call out...
At that moment, Phil suddenly appeared at the location that had been sensed, and also used his right hand, which was enveloped in a faint glow, to blast towards his beast-shaped head.
Bang...
The two fists collided, creating another wave of turbulence. The rubble and planks in the area where they fought were instantly cleared away and swept around, making it impossible for others to observe what was happening inside or intervene.
"Hehehehe, very good. I can only sense a little bit of force in this punch. That's it. Hurry up, put in a little more force, and maybe you can defeat me."
Because of the fruit transformation and the special state he was in at the moment, Fukelike felt a strong sense of confidence, as if he could ignore everything. Naturally, he did not take Phil's punches, which were currently able to Wrestling with him, seriously, and shouted loudly and arrogantly.
"Hmph, if that's the case, then let's put in even more effort... Extreme-Speed Rush!!"
Seeing that his attack seemed to be despised, Phil was not angry. Instead, he calmly spoke, and then used a special way of exerting force and amplifying his speed. Phil's fist instantly blasted away Fukelike's right fist and hit him on the head with undiminished power, sending him flying.
Bang...
"Damn it, don't be so arrogant! I only managed to defeat you because I held back. This time I'm serious! Super Savage... Charge!!"
Click click...
Click click...
Wherever Fukelike passed, the floor cracked and Crushing Rupture, and his massive, ink-black body Rush relentlessly toward Phil.
"The same tricks won't work on me. Let me show you my newly developed move—die by this one!"
Reaper... Falling Strike!!
Facing Fukelike's imposing and awe-inspiring attack, Phil took a deep breath and said, "Immediately, a light blue field appears around me. My hands move faster and faster like a dance. Finally, just as Fukelike's massive body is about to collide with him, Phil is like two streaks of light, passing by his side and grabbing his sharp fangs. With all his might, he leaps into the air and crashes backward, slamming Focke against the metal outer wall."
Click...
A sound of bones breaking came from Fukelike's body, followed by the snapping of his two enormous, protruding fangs. His body collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon, motionless.
"Hmph, brute force alone cannot defeat my fighting technique, which combines speed and skill. Therefore, the title of ultimate victor belongs to me. Goodbye..."
Phil spoke to the unconscious and lifeless body of Fukelike, then waved his hand and left the battlefield.
Clang...
Meanwhile, on Sabo's side of the battlefield, Jessicano deflected a sword that swept towards her with a single strike, took a large step back, and turned her gaze toward Fukelike.
"Hmm... I didn't expect that arrogant jerk to be defeated. Honestly, I've told him so many times to change his habit of underestimating his opponents, but he never listens. Now he's finally finished."
However, although Fukelike was a bit overconfident, that Phil guy is no pushover, being able to defeat him at his full strength. Oh well, I'll test his strength after this battle. Now...
As he spoke, Jessicano turned his gaze back to the beautiful swordswoman Catherine in front of him, gripped the hilt of his sword, and prepared to end this protracted battle in one fell swoop.
"Hmm... You still have time to be distracted? Do you even care about me at all, Sword Shadow... Three Wicked Moons!!"
Clang... clang... clang...
Seeing that her opponent was distracted in the battle, diverting half of her attention to something else, Catherine felt deeply insulted. She clasped her hands together, gripped the hilt of her sword, and swung it forward with Extreme Speed. Three bright white slashes flew in like crescent moons.
"Heh heh heh, don't say that! I haven't underestimated you at all. But I have some things to take care of right now, so I can't continue fighting you. Watch closely, I'm going to end this battle with this move! Ultimate Technique... Iai... Dragon Slash!!"
Jessicano glanced indifferently at the slashing Flying Slash flying towards him, and smiled as if she were not threatened at all, before drawing her sword and unleashing her Secret Technique: Iai Dragon Slash.
brush...
Jessicano swung his sword, and a white Giant Dragon formed beneath his blade, roaring as it tore through several incoming attacks and swooped down with immense power towards Catherine.
