boom...
Awooo!!
At this moment, Jack, who had been buried underground by his power, broke free and transformed into a huge Colossal Beast, treading on the glutinous ground and landing on the deck, letting out a deafening roar.
"Oh no, even that brute has escaped. Although we know we can't hold him for long, it's still too urgent..."
Hearing the roar of a mammoth behind him, he knew that Jack had escaped from his control, adding another variable to the equation. His head was spinning, and he thought to himself.
Thump...
Thump...
Thump...
" Katakuri, how dare you trap me with your power! I'll take your life!! Mammoth... Primordial Trample!! Awooo..."
Jack transformed into a mammoth, roaring as he Charge at him with his powerful limbs.
"Why? Why not just stay where you are? Why keep coming up here to die... Mochi Super Thrust..."
Katakuri turned around and looked at the charging giant elephant, speaking coldly. After saying that, he raised his right arm, which was a ball of dough that Expansion, and used it to forcefully stab the rapidly spinning Mogura.
"Hahahaha, who do you think you are? Kaido couldn't kill me, and you think you can? Die! I'll use these fangs that have pierced through countless powerful beings in the New World to pierce you through completely..."
As he spoke, while Charge at Extreme Speed, Jack's two thick, white, and extremely sharp tusks on his elephant head burned with an aura of death as deep as an abyss, aiming to pierce Katakuri's heart.
Swoosh...
"Die!!"
Just as he was about to reach Katakuri, Jack suddenly pushed off the ground with all four limbs, his body instantly leaping into the air, and brandishing Reaper scythe-like teeth to stab at him.
"Nuonuo..."
brush...
Faced with this terrifying attack, Katakuri did not choose to dodge. His mind remained incredibly calm; as the attack came, he used his Observation Haki to sense it and teleport its physical form away. Jack's fangs pierced straight through his body, creating two large holes, but no blood flowed out. The openings were filled with a sticky, glutinous liquid that gradually healed.
Katakuri seized the opportunity, pressing down on Jack's head with one hand to immobilize him, while thrusting his other hand, wielding the Mogura Armament Haki, straight at him.
"Um..."
As the tip of the Mogura's spear drew ever closer, Jack's beastly eyes narrowed, and his body Extreme Speed transformed, quickly breaking free of Katakuri's Bind in his Human-Beast Form. However, he still couldn't completely evade the attack. The Mogura instantly pierced through his defenses, penetrating his abdomen. Then, with a powerful push of his arm, Jack's body flew backward like a cannonball, crashing into the fence with a loud thud, once again creating a cloud of smoke and a shower of wood chips.
"Cough... Holy crap, that was intense? Did it get enraged and unleash its full power? That won't do, I have more important things to do, I can't collapse here..."
Luo Chen, who was standing to the side, stood up and glanced at Jack, who had been swept away by him. He couldn't help but be surprised by the strength Katakuri was displaying at this moment. Then, with an even more serious expression, he looked at him and said earnestly.
Rumble...
Swoosh...
"Damn Katakuri, how dare you leave me so badly injured... I'll kill you... Giant Elephant Stomp!!"
As soon as Jack stood up from the fence, he angrily charged at him with his beast legs.
A Shadow Flash, and Jack appeared in front of Katakuri, transforming his body back into a beast form and stomping down on him with his forelimbs.
brush...
Thump!!!
Katakuri wasn't surprised when Jack suddenly appeared in front of him. He swung his right hand, the Mogura, and then gripped the gun handle tightly with both arms to block in front of him. With a loud bang, Jack's forelimbs slammed into the Mogura gun handle, creating a violent Impact that sent wood chips and ash flying everywhere.
call out...
"Although I feel deeply ashamed to end this battle this way, I have no choice but to use it in order to leave as soon as possible. Fall down, Katakuri... Rankyaku Secret Technique... Bursting Leg!!"
boom...
Taking advantage of the stalemate between Katakuri and Jack, Luo Chen One Flash to his side, raised his right leg to create a storm of air, and concentrated a large amount of Blood Breath in his leg before stomping on Katakuri's waist. With a loud bang Katakuri was blasted away and crashed into the cabin.
Swoosh...
"Hehehehehe, thank you so much for your help! I've been wanting to send him flying for ages. I'll repay you properly with your life, Pirate Luo Chen... Death Scythe Blade!!"
Seeing Katakuri, whom he had attacked with all his might but failed, being sent flying, Jack grinned, his body transforming into a black shadow One Flash he flashed behind Luo Chen, wielding his twin blades and slashing down fiercely.
" Extreme Speed... God-Slaying Fist... Death Blast!!"
Just then, as his ivory blade was about to strike, a faint voice sounded behind him, followed by a powerful shockwave that blasted him away with a loud bang.
"Hmm... so it was you who appeared just now. I remember you were that person at the auction. What? You have time to come here and interfere in our affairs? Aren't you afraid of offending two major powers?"
Luo Chen turned around and saw that it was the same person he had seen at the auction on Supomachi Island. He asked in slight surprise.
"Hehehe, this isn't the right place to talk. If you want to discuss this, let's go to your ship. Now is the perfect opportunity, so hurry up and leave, or it'll be too late..."
The man who appeared on the Katakuri ship, Phil, who had followed closely behind, shook his head and did not immediately answer Luo Chen's question. Instead, he gestured for Luo Chen to leave first and they could discuss other matters later.
"Hehe, that's right. Let's discuss this in detail aboard the Isel. Let's go..."
brush...
Upon hearing his reminder, Luo Chen naturally knew that this was not a good place to chat, so he once again used his ability to conjure a pair of large, blood-red wings and flew into the sky towards the location of the Isel.
Swoosh...
At the same moment, Phil's body also began to glow, and then he transformed into a blue Flowing Shadow, Extreme Speed sweeping across the sea and following after it.
Bang...
"Don't even think about escaping..."
Just as they left the ship, Katakuri got up again, rushed out of the cabin and onto the deck. Seeing that Luo Chen and the other were preparing to escape, he immediately turned his hands into sticky, glutinous balls and stretched them out in two directions to grab them.
Bang...
"Hehehehe, that hurts, you bastard..."
Just as Katakuri's soft hands were about to grab them, the deck shook again, and Jack stood up once more, took a step back, and slashed down towards Katakuri's location.
"Um..."
Whoosh... Clang!!
Seeing the blades about to strike him, Katakuri had no choice but to abandon his plan to grab them, and once again keratinized his fists to meet the attack.
"Hey, it's not that guy from before, it's you!!"
The attack was easily blocked once again, and Jack realized that the person in front of him was not the one who had just ambushed him, but Katakuri. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Damn it, it's all your fault, you brainless brute, letting them get away! I'll never forgive you, Jack the bastard!!"
When Katakuri caught sight of Luo Chen and the other two getting further and further away from them, and realized there was no hope of catching them, he suddenly became furious. His mouth, hidden by his scarf, made a grinding sound as if he wanted to tear the man in front of him to pieces to vent his hatred.
"Heh heh heh heh, then let's go! I've been wanting to see if you, the leader of the Sweet Commander, are stronger than me, Drought. Let's settle this right here... Mammoth..."
Instead of being angry, Jack laughed, becoming even more excited by Katakuri's actions. He no longer cared about Luo Chen or the mission, focusing only on determining who was better than the person in front of him. With a deep shout, he wielded his ivory twin blades and slashed fiercely.
Splash...
Dozens of kilometers away, a magnificent giant ship sailed smoothly on the sea, while several people on board gathered together, looking worried and talking.
"Hey!! We've all escaped, but I wonder how the captain is doing now? Did he manage to get away from that guy safely and return here?"
George glanced around at everyone and then said with a somewhat dejected expression.
"Don't worry, Luo Chen won't fall down so easily. He still has even more exciting adventures to come on his journey with us!"
Catherine, the group's leader, had a better understanding of Luo Chen's strength and knew he wouldn't fall down like that, so she confidently reassured everyone.
