"Let's go!"
Chaton pushed off with his feet and shot towards Roy.
He was incredibly fast, leaving a white afterimage in the air.
This is one of the abilities of the Cloud Pig Fruit.
High-speed surprise attack, utilizing the explosive force generated by air compression and release, achieving speeds comparable to shaving over short distances.
His right fist was covered in Armament Haki, and a ring of rapidly spinning air blades surrounded his fist.
This punch combines the damage of physical impact with the power to cut through air, and it's his signature opening move.
" Momonga, Doberman, Dalmatian —flank from the side!"
The Momonga and Doberman charged at Roy from both sides simultaneously.
The Momonga's longsword was wreathed in Armament Haki, Doberman's twin swords swung around in a dense, impenetrable manner.
Dalmatian Dalmatian circled behind Roy, its claws extended, ready to launch a surprise attack from behind at any moment.
Roy's smile deepened as he watched the four work together seamlessly.
"So it's Mythical Zoan?"
His gaze fell on Chaton, his interest growing even stronger than before.
"That's really good."
Chaton didn't respond. His right fist had already slammed into Roy's face, the air blade cutting through the air with a piercing shriek.
Roy raised his left hand, palm facing Chaton's fist.
Telekinesis: Barrier unfolded in front of his palm, its translucent surface gleaming with a pale golden light.
Chaton's fist slammed into the barrier, and the air blades spun wildly across the barrier's surface, emitting a piercing screeching sound.
But the barrier remained completely still, without even the slightest ripple.
Chaton's pupils contracted slightly.
He knew how powerful his attack was; a full-force punch could blast a hole in even a wall of Seastone.
But when it hit Roy's Telekinesis: Barrier, it was like hitting an insurmountable wall.
Just as Chaton was about to retract his fist and change his move, Roy's right hand moved.
Shusui slashes horizontally, aiming straight for Chaton's neck.
Chaton instinctively leaned back, the blade grazing his throat, the wind from the blade leaving a thin trail of blood on his neck.
But before he could even catch his breath, Roy's knee came crashing down on him.
The knee strike landed squarely on Chaton's abdomen, cracking the rock armor and sending fragments flying everywhere.
Chaton was thrown into the air, tumbling twice before barely managing to regain his balance.
"Mr. Chaton --!!!"
The Momonga slashed in from the left, its long blade aimed straight at Roy's temple.
Roy dodged to the side, then swung his sword at the Momonga's waist.
The Momonga sheathed his sword to parry, and the instant the blades collided, he felt as if an elephant had stepped on his arm.
His hand was instantly shattered, and the long sword almost flew out of his grasp.
Doberman's twin swords slashed down from the other side.
His attack style was even more ferocious than the Momonga's; he wielded his twin swords in a relentless, impenetrable flurry, each strike carrying a ruthless, death-defying ferocity.
Roy gripped the Shusui in one hand, casually parrying Doberman's fierce attacks.
Each clash of blades produced a crisp sound, and with each impact Doberman was forced back half a step.
But he gritted his teeth and advanced instead of retreating, continuing his frenzied slashing with his twin swords.
" Dalmatian —now!"
Doberman roared and slashed down with both swords at the same time, using all his strength to hold off Roy's Shusui for a moment.
In that instant, Dalmatian Dalmatian leaped up from behind Roy.
His claws extended, covered in Armament Haki, and all ten claws simultaneously clawed at Roy's back.
This move is his signature technique – Dalmatian Sky Claw.
Its ten claws can tear through steel, and with the added enhancement of Armament Haki, it can even leave scratches on Seastone.
Roy didn't turn around.
He pointed backward with his left hand.
A Telekinesis shockwave, as thin as a hair, condensed at his fingertips and shot precisely at Dalmatian's brain.
Before Dalmatian's claws could even touch Roy's back, he was struck head-on by the Telekinesis shockwave.
His body froze in mid-air for a moment, then he flew backward as if struck by an invisible hammer.
It crashed onto the ice, slid more than ten meters away, and only stopped after smashing through a broken wall.
Doberman's twin swords were still aimed at Shusui.
But he could feel the power on the Shusui gradually increasing.
It felt like trying to push against a slowly descending mountain with your bare hands; no matter how hard you tried, the mountain just kept pressing down.
You think you can handle me?
Roy turned his head and looked at Doberman's bloodshot eyes, which were filled with tears from exertion.
Then he jerked his arm.
Doberman's two swords flew out of his hands simultaneously.
His thumb and forefinger were completely torn open, and blood dripped down his fingers.
The force of the impact sent him staggering several steps backward.
Roy's Shusui swept across the battlefield with ease.
A pale white slashing wave flew out from the blade, as thin as a sheet of paper, yet sharp enough to cut through anything.
Doberman tried desperately to dodge, but the distance was too close, and he couldn't react in time.
The slashing wave sliced through his body, leaving a long gash from his chest to his abdomen.
Blood gushed from the wound, his body swayed, and then he knelt on one knee on the ice.
Just as Chaton regained his balance, he saw Doberman also fall down.
His face was extremely pale.
Five people ganged up on one person, and three of them fell in less than three minutes.
The remaining Momonga was still barely holding on, but the web between his thumb and forefinger was split open, and his hand gripping the knife was trembling violently.
The few clashes with the blade had already torn the muscles in his arm in several places.
"Mr. Chaton --I can still--"
The Momonga gritted its teeth and raised its long knife again.
Before he could finish speaking, Roy had already vanished from the spot.
The next second, he appeared in front of the Momonga.
The Shusui pierced straight down, its tip striking the Momonga's blade with pinpoint accuracy.
The blade couldn't withstand the concentrated force and broke in two.
The broken blade tumbled through the air and flew out, embedding itself in the ice in the distance.
The Momonga, holding the remaining half of the broken knife, paused for a moment.
In that instant, Roy's left palm struck his chest.
Telekinesis shockwave blasted through his body, sending the flying Momonga flying backward.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his body tumbling several times in the air before crashing into the distant ruins, rubble raining down on him.
Chaton looked at his colleagues lying on the ground around him, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
All four Vice Admiral he brought with him fell.
Roy, on the other hand, didn't even catch his breath the entire time.
His clothes were still clean, without a single drop of blood on them.
"Your turn."
Roy turned around to face Chaton.
Black Blade Shusui twirled the blade in his hand, the tip pointing diagonally at the ground.
Sunlight shone on the blade, reflecting a blinding, cold light.
" Mythical Zoan Fruit, quite rare."
Roy's voice was calm, as if stating a fact.
I will accept it.
