mad!
That's utterly outrageous!
Upon hearing Bai Yu's reply, Water Buffalo Atmos paused for a moment.
He immediately the Roar anger.
"Good, very good. A mere newly recruited naval officer who's been hyped up dares to be so arrogant."
"I'm the Thirteenth Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, not the Beasts Pirates. Those so-called Headliner can't compare."
"Since you want to see your Pops, if you can defeat me, I might consider helping you find your way."
"But now, keep your arrogance and get out of here!"
Bang!
With each powerful stride of the Water Buffalo Atmos, its massive body unleashed unexpected speed.
He took the lead, straddling two pirate ships, and charged straight at Bai Yu.
Despite its seemingly heavy body, the speed of the Water Buffalo Atmos was not affected in the slightest at this moment.
The distance of tens of meters was covered in a single leap.
Holding the giant sword in both hands, without any fancy moves, he slashed it directly at Bai Yu.
"Get back now!"
Yamakaji's expression changed drastically, and he shouted a warning in a high-pitched voice.
Those present were jolted awake and, without a second thought, hastily retreated.
However, throughout this process, no one's eyes were ever off Bai Yu.
The next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Boom!
A pair of giant swords, unleashing tremendous force, slammed down on Bai Yu.
As the massive blast wave receded...
That slender figure, several times smaller than Water Buffalo Atmos, remained standing like an iron tower, giving the impression of being completely unmoved.
The immense recoil force caused the greatsword in Water Buffalo Atmos's hand to bounce back.
This crazy scene left everyone speechless.
"A decent strike; even I, wielding Tekkai, felt a slight pain."
Bai Yu smiled bloodthirstyly. This was the Tekkai he had created after becoming the Fourth Admiral, through his own research and development of the Six Powers.
As a monster who extremely enjoys the visceral impact of swords and takes pleasure in slaughter.
Bai Yu was quite interested in these methods that could enhance his own defense.
Looking at the Water Buffalo Atmos casting a huge black shadow before him, Bai Yu took a sip of his drink, his bloodthirsty fighting spirit growing stronger. In the instant he crushed the bottle in his hand, the Demon Sword Murasame at his waist was drawn in a flash.
"As expected of the Thirteenth Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, you deserve a beating!"
Bang!
One strike!
It gives people a feeling of great power and strength.
The Murasame, shimmering with golden light, struck the Water Buffalo Atmos with lightning speed and overwhelming force.
Water Buffalo Atmos's expression changed drastically, and he quickly raised his greatsword to Guard.
Bang!
Its massive body was sent flying backward by the shockwave from the collision.
It crashed headfirst into the mast of a pirate ship.
The entire pirate ship began to shake violently.
The sudden outburst instantly silenced the previously chaotic situation.
The pirates, who had originally planned to watch the show, were especially dumbfounded.
"The team leader has been defeated!"
"Oh my god, what on earth is going on?!"
Hundreds of pirates were present, and many couldn't help but rub their eyes.
Even worse, some people slapped themselves in the face.
In their eyes, their captain was a well-established and famous figure.
Now, however, they've cleaved this newly popular figure, whom they've been hyping up, in two with a single blow.
Is this still just a newbie?
Are all newcomers these days so incredibly talented?
"Captain Atmos, are you alright?"
A pirate hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Yes, the captain must have been careless to allow them to take advantage of the situation!"
These words immediately drew nods of agreement from the pirates present.
Rather than trust their captain, they were cleaved in two by a single blow.
They were even more convinced that it was all due to carelessness.
However, Water Buffalo Atmos did not respond to this scene. He forcibly suppressed the surging blood in his body and slowly walked back to the bow deck.
Others might not know, but he knew for sure that the power Bai Yu had just unleashed was definitely no less than his own.
Moreover, if this can be considered carelessness on his part...
So what was the scene where Bai Yu stood there blankly, letting him hack away?
"Kid, you really are a surprise!"
Water Buffalo Atmos spoke in a deep voice, gripping his two greatswords tightly, and once again came to the front of the bow deck.
"I've put aside my earlier contempt and will use my full strength to fight you, a rookie in the Navy."
"If you can beat me in a strength contest, I can promise you I'll take you to see my Pops."
The words had barely left his mouth!
The jet-black Armament Haki spread rapidly across Water Buffalo Atmos's greatsword.
Seeing this, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.
This is serious now.
"Kid, I'm getting serious now. I hope you won't get hacked to pieces without being able to fight back!"
Bang!
With a bang, the Water Buffalo Atmos charged straight at Bai Yu like a cannonball once again.
Watching the rapidly approaching figure.
Bai Yu rose with a bloodthirsty laugh, and the Demon Sword Murasame in his hand once again burst forth with dazzling golden light.
"I completely admire your fighting spirit."
"Then let's have a fierce battle, one where neither side will back down!"
Buzz!
Armament Haki was also applied to the demon sword.
Facing the massive sword that was cleaving down with tremendous force, Bai Yu did not hesitate at all and met it head-on with a slash.
Boom!
The collision, neither giving an inch, created a massive shockwave that rapidly rippled outwards.
Amidst the flying sparks, Bai Yu and Water Buffalo Atmos retreated rapidly.
However, compared to Bai Yu, Atmos clearly took a step back.
Feeling a slight stinging pain in his wrist, Water Buffalo Atmos's expression changed slightly.
Among all the squad leaders, he is indeed not the strongest.
However, in a simple contest of strength, he is slightly inferior to Jozu.
Now, however, he is being repelled head-on by Bai Yu in succession.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Water Buffalo Atmos would never have believed it.
Seeing Bai Yu's bloodthirsty expression, Water Buffalo Atmos's face darkened, and he erupted in anger once more.
However, the moment he moved, what first caught his eye was the powerful and domineering Haki that was once again erupting from Bai Yu's hand.
Like ripples spreading outwards, they exude a Ryuo Haki aura.
Seeing this sudden turn of events, Water Buffalo Atmos was momentarily stunned.
I glanced at it subconsciously and saw that the greatsword was also wrapped in Ryuo.
He never expected that Bai Yu, at such a young age, would understand the Ryuo Haki, which he considered the key to victory in this battle.
Both sides are currently launching the same attack.
So, wouldn't another head-on collision likely result in the same outcome as before?
Boom!
The black, Haki Inazuma forth like fireworks.
At that moment, the entire sea seemed to be stirred up, churning up towering waves.
