Swoosh...
The long, serpentine blade snaked and twisted as it thrust upwards. Luo Chen's eyes narrowed, his gaze precisely capturing the incoming blade, and he reached out with his right hand to grasp the hilt.
Clang...
Just as the sharp tip of the sword was about to pierce Luo Chen's eye, he finally made his move, drawing his sword and slashing out with lightning speed.
One Flash a flash, Diamante's slender, snake-like sword was severed before Luo Chen's eyes and fell to his feet with a clang.
"Ugh... No good, damn it, I knew I wouldn't get my way so easily..."
When Diamante saw his sword broken, a look of heartache flashed in his eyes. He immediately put it away and looked at the three people opposite him with a serious expression.
"Hahaha, your sword has been broken by the captain. What are you going to do next, you idiot in the red cloak?"
George was overjoyed to see Luo Chen cut Diamante's sword in half and shouted loudly to Diamante.
"Hey, you wretched brat, apologize right now for what you said! Lord Diamante is a hero of our Corrida Colosseum, not the idiot you're making him out to be!!"
Before Diamante could even get angry, a large group of gladiators behind him were already furious and shouted loudly at George.
"Hmph, apologize? Sorry, I won't apologize to a narcissistic and arrogant idiot."
George completely disregarded their threats and continued speaking to the group with a disdainful expression.
"You..."
They seemed to be provoked by George's words, their eyes widening as they glared at the three men, ready to continue their reprimand.
Before he could finish speaking, Diamante raised his hand to stop them, a sinister glint in his eyes, but his face remained smiling as he continued to speak.
"Heh heh heh, this is the only time you can laugh. I'll pull out your teeth and see how you say those words then... Come at me, Pica, Lao G..."
Having said that, Diamante waved his hand, shouted, and then rushed forward first.
"Behold my... Bullfighting Cape!!"
Diamante grabbed the red cloak behind him and unleashed his power.
It accelerated, wielding a cloak as hard as steel, and charged towards the group.
"I'll use... my Secret Technique... the Ape Demon Straight Punch!"
George stepped aside and walked forward, then activated his ability, his right arm transforming into a hairy giant hand that clenched into a fist and slammed forward with tremendous force.
Bang...
George's furry fist slammed onto Diamante's cloak with a deafening roar, the aftershocks creating ripples that spread outwards in concentric circles.
Bang...
The next instant, the recoil force propelled them back, and they slid a short distance before coming to a stop.
" Zoan user? Looks like you've developed your abilities quite well; you were even able to shake off my Bullfighting Cape..."
Diamante was taken aback when he saw George's thick, hairy arm, which resembled that of a wild beast, before praising him.
"Hmph... Same here!!"
Receiving praise from the other party, even though they were enemies, George couldn't help but feel pleased. He touched the tip of his nose with his finger and politely replied.
"Now, I'll show you my true skills... Behold my Bullfighting Glaive!!"
Diamante then transformed the broken blade of the rapier into a light, flowing shape, like silk, and continuously wrapped it into the shape of a bullfighting bull, restoring its original hardness to form a rapier with a bull-shaped blade at the front.
He gripped it and thrust it forward, using the hard tip of its horns to attack George.
" Secret Technique... Ape Demon Palm Strike!!"
George remained calm and slapped his hand forward.
Bang...
A furry palm patted Diamante's silver bull horn.
The two collided, producing a violent shockwave that sent ripples through the air once again.
brush...
Diamante reached into his pocket with his free hand.
"Fall down... Death Enjambre!!"
He pulled out several ceremonial cannons from his pocket and sprayed countless paper scraps into the air. The light paper scraps transformed into sharp iron balls of thorns high in the sky, and then turned into a dense rain of iron that fell from the sky.
"Don't even think about succeeding..."
roar...
Seeing this, George roared and his body changed drastically, instantly transforming into a giant ape six or seven meters tall, protecting Luo Chen and the other two from below.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Iron balls fell and struck the giant ape's back with a crisp knocking sound. After a while, the iron balls in the sky finally stopped falling.
"Is this Ancient Zoan ' ability? Lucky lad, but I won't give you time to react... Prepare to die... Half Moon Funeral!!"
Clang!!
After Diamante finished speaking, he raised his longsword and swung it out. A powerful wave of sword energy surged out, easily splitting the earth in two as if cutting tofu, and heading straight for the heads of the three people.
roar...
" The Ape Demon Great Palm Strike!"
The giant ape shifted its body and roared to the sky, then raised its arms, its beastly eyes narrowing, and as the slash came, it forcefully brought them together.
boom!!
The massive Palm Strike brought up surging air, causing the airflow to churn instantly. The slash was slammed down by those two huge and thick hands before it could even reach the target.
Buzz...
This palm strike caused even the air to tremble violently, and the surrounding air was filled with chaotic air currents. The strike instantly turned into bubbles and dissipated.
"Damn it... Die!"
Clang!!
Enraged, Diamante froze his longsword and thrust it forward with a fierce thrust.
The longsword, its tip severed, slashed towards the giant ape that George had transformed into.
roar...
" Ape Demon... Heavy Hammer!!"
A hoarse, low, trembling sound rang out, and the giant ape clasped its hands together, fingers pressed together, and swung them forward with great force.
boom...
Click click... bang!!
With a single strike, the ground trembled, and Diamante's sword was smashed to pieces by the giant ape before it could even pierce through.
The longsword in his hand shattered instantly, turning into fragments that fell to the ground.
"Alright, Phil, George, let's go!"
Taking advantage of the moment when the other person was in a daze Luo Chen looked up and reminded George and the other person.
"Yes, we have to get out of here quickly, Captain. Phil, stand in my hands, and I'll take you away from here..."
George bent down and stretched out his hairy, giant hand in front of the two of them, saying...
"Let's go!!"
Luo Chen and Phil jumped into George's palms, were placed on his shoulders, and stood up, then shouted loudly.
"Let me lend you a hand... Extreme Speed... Enhancement!!"
Phil stood on his left shoulder, his arm outstretched and pressed against his neck, a blue energy emanating from his palm and instantly coursing through his entire body.
"Hmm, I feel so much lighter now, thanks, Phil... We're here right now!!"
After thanking Phil, George emitted a Blue Light and sped forward, leaving a trail of dust. In the blink of an eye Luo Chen and his companions disappeared from Diamante's group's sight.
Cough cough...
"Damn it, they got away! I have to tell the young master right away!!"
Diamante used his cloak to shield himself from the billowing dust. After the dust gradually dissipated and the three had long since disappeared, he couldn't help but shout out.
Dudu ludu!!
Dudu ludu!!
Click...
"Hey, young master..."
Inside the palace, Doflamingo leisurely lay on a sun lounger and picked up the microphone, from which came Diamante's anxious and impatient voice.
"What's wrong, Diamante? This isn't like you. By the way, how's the thing I asked you to do? Was it successful?"
Doflamingo leisurely picked up a glass of juice, took a sip, and then calmly asked him.
"Young Master, it's terrible! Luo Chen and his men have just escaped from us, and they even took the things you entrusted to us!!"
"Across from me, "Diamante said anxiously.
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, Doflamingo could no longer sit still and raised his voice.
