The battle quickly passed in three hours. On the pirate ship, several high-ranking agents got too close to Olvia's Desktop World while besieging Kanbo, and were then sucked into the small world.
Like the two agents before them, they lay side by side on the ground, struggling desperately. They tried to get up and find the unknown enemy, but their struggles were in vain. Apart from nearly grinding their teeth to pieces, their bodies seemed to be welded to the ground.
The two who had entered earlier had given up struggling, because they had struggled for a long time to no avail, and now they were unwilling to move any further.
Seeing their companion disappear as soon as he approached the miniature sandbox world on the desktop, the other senior agents became wary and stopped moving closer to the desktop world.
However, with fewer men, they were no longer able to suppress Kanbo, Kanbo was now capable of launching a counterattack. The three men besieging him were already struggling to hold on.
But even as they fought with all their might, their injuries gradually increased, and they would soon lose their fighting ability. Meanwhile, Kanbo realized that Olvia's abilities were powerful and effective, so he intentionally or unintentionally forced the enemy in that direction.
The battle on the pirate ship is already going well for Vic and his crew. I believe it won't be long before all the agents over there are stuck in Olvia's desktop world.
Meanwhile, Rebecca, facing a prolonged siege, became increasingly adept at controlling her flying sword, a testament to how external pressure had enhanced her mental strength.
Some people hone their spirit and will through harsh natural environments, while others hone themselves through fierce battles; both can enhance their mental strength and willpower.
Rebecca doesn't need mental power to control flying swords; she just needs to develop her Float-Float Fruit. Once she masters her abilities, she can control several islands like Shiki the Golden Lion.
Rebecca is currently controlling flying swords, and dozens or even hundreds of them. In the future, she will be able to control thousands upon thousands of flying swords. If she were to use the power of the Float-Float Fruit, Rebecca could also control them, but that would only be unified control, with only one general direction. She wouldn't be able to give each flying sword she controls its own trajectory and flexible changes.
It's like playing a mobile game. Some people can only use two fingers to operate it, while others can use all ten fingers to control it skillfully, and some can even use their toes to control it.
Although both involve controlling a game character, there are significant differences. Having more fingers allows for smoother and more complex maneuvers, something that two fingers simply cannot achieve.
However, the number of fingers can be improved through long-term training and adaptation. Rebecca also improved her control over the flying sword by using, adapting to, mastering, and changing under such pressure.
Of course, Rebecca's rapid progress is not entirely due to these three hours; it's just that her progress was more noticeable during those three hours. But it also owes much to her previous development and efforts. It's just that all her hard work and cultivation have blossomed and borne fruit at this moment. Without the usual nurturing and fertilization, there would be no such result.
Just like the jokes Vic saw in his previous life, Rayleigh's teaching of Luffy for a year and a half was not as effective as Kaido's few blows, labeling Rayleigh as a mediocre teacher and completely denying Rayleigh's role and Luffy's efforts and accumulation over the past two years.
Cultivation also requires a gradual approach; you can't become fat overnight. Whether you can become fat Vic uncertain, but you'll definitely die from overeating. Only by accumulating enough knowledge can you have an epiphany at a certain moment.
Rayleigh was like someone who taught Luffy to read and some advanced rhetorical devices, while Kaido taught Luffy how to use rhetorical devices to create simple and easy-to-understand articles.
Just like when you were in elementary school doing math problems, there were many ways to solve a problem, but you only knew one because you only knew one method at that stage. However, the teacher could solve the problem in many ways, but those methods were all beyond the scope of the curriculum.
The teacher might explain one or two solutions that are beyond the scope of the curriculum, but you wouldn't be able to understand them at your level at the time, and you might even forget them soon. You might only remember them when you actually learn that content. I think the teacher mentioned it briefly when explaining elementary school problems, and it turns out that it's really simple to do them using the current methods.
Luffy is like that. When Rayleigh taught him advanced Haki, he couldn't understand it. He could only focus on building a foundation and accumulating experience. He simply didn't have the energy to worry about using advanced Haki; he didn't even know how to use the basics yet.
It wasn't until he had a solid foundation and saw others using these techniques that he remembered Rayleigh had mentioned them all, but he hadn't understood them at the time. Now, looking back, he was filled with emotion!
Rebecca's previous control of the flying swords was somewhat stiff, and her speed wasn't particularly fast. However, after her previous experience and three hours of intensive adaptation and familiarization, she has become quite adept at controlling these flying swords, and her speed has increased significantly.
The previously evenly matched situation changed. The slender blade of the flying sword, combined with its increased speed and perfect control, easily pierced through the bodies of the two senior agents and continued its attack on the next victim.
In an instant, Rebecca's top agents rained down on the sea, all of them unable to dodge and struck by her flying swords.
You can dodge the first attack of the flying sword, but it's hard to avoid the continuous barrage of flying swords darting around you. It's just like the old saying, you can dodge the first day but not the fifteenth. The senior agents suffered heavy losses.
Rebecca didn't hold back this time. She was extremely angry that the World Government had ruined her dreams and life, so these high-ranking agents were basically all fatal penetrating wounds, and there were probably very few who could be saved.
After eliminating the high-ranking agents who had surrounded her, she turned her blade on the agents who had besieged Wendy and her group.
The situation was initially balanced, but with her intervention, it instantly became one-sided, and soon another high-ranking agent fell into the sea!
After Rebecca and Frodeku's group had killed several of the high-ranking agents brought by Abraham's three Celestial Dragons, few remained. This enraged the three Celestial Dragons had been observing the battle. Even when beating a dog, one should consider its owner, let alone killing their loyal hound right in front of them.
"How dare you!"
Burns roared and abandoned Vic, teleporting several times to a spot not far from Rebecca. His fist, wrapped in Ryuo, was about to kill her with a single punch.
"Watch out! Behind you!"
While entangled in a battle with Abraham, Vic kept a close eye on the movements of the other two. Seeing that Burns had abandoned him and ignored the two men watching him intently, he immediately used his Observation Haki Secret Sound Transmission to send a warning to Rebecca!
