Lida is very strong.
As the person who has been by Lida's side the longest, Kuro has witnessed her growth step by step.
At first, using the ability would make him hungry, but later, by mastering the fruit and 'Life Return', he gradually reduced the side effects of the ability.
Back then, during the Marineford War, Lida was already a formidable opponent in close combat, capable of taking on many captains single-handedly.
After that, once the curse of Luo Shen's abilities was broken and her own talent was no longer affected and even surpassed, her strength progressed rapidly.
The curse of the goddess Luo's power might enhance others, but for Lida, it limited her development.
After Luo Shen died, Lida's physical talents were fully displayed. However, Kuro's advice to her at the time was to develop her Devil Fruit abilities and physical skills in tandem. Now, she has almost fully developed both.
She possesses exceptional physical talent, and she was the first to decipher the principles of 'a thousand strikes in an instant,' allowing her to maintain perfect control over herself.
Lida herself possesses immense power. In addition to absorbing and releasing energy to recover, the Essence-Energy Fruit can also be used to create 'impacts'. Although it has always been in the form of shockwaves, that doesn't mean there aren't variations.
She recently developed a technique that combines her strength with impact, then punches outwards.
This has led to a phenomenon...
She didn't even look at the greatsword coming down; she just swung her fist forward, and the fist hit the air.
Thump!
A muffled, loud thud, like a wave, spread outwards from the fist. The ripples traveled across the steam greatsword, causing it to stop in its tracks.
The area in front of Lida's fist suddenly came to a standstill.
Like the calm before the storm.
Click!
After the ripples spread out, cracks began to appear from the center of Lida's fist, and the air seemed to shatter as if glass were breaking apart.
Seeing this scene, both Kuro and the three people on the pirate ship felt a sudden sinking feeling in their hearts, with a bad premonition.
A slight smile appeared on Lida's lips as she softly uttered, "Earth-shattering."
boom!!!
A loud bang echoed outwards, and the crack shattered, unleashing a massive shockwave that rippled forward.
The steam giant sword, along with the enormous steam giant, vanished under the massive impact, revealing William's figure inside. He groaned as he was swept backward by the force of the impact and shot like a cannonball onto the pirate ship.
*Smack*
Montblanc reacted quickly and caught William as he flew backward.
"That, that's..."
William coughed violently, staring at Lida, who was throwing a punch in front of him, his eyes almost overflowing with horror!
Rumble!!
The air vibrated, the sea roared, and the entire space seemed to tremble.
"Help!"
"Oh no, I can't swim! The current is too strong!"
The pirates who hadn't yet boarded the ship were shouting and yelling, and the seawater below was churning, causing the only intact pirate ship to tilt and sway.
"Start emergency treatment first..."
Elmira realized what was happening and was about to say the last word "person" when she suddenly stopped, her face filled with deep fear.
Because in front of him, the seawater rose without wind, as if it had been cut into a piece, and rose crookedly upwards, quickly engulfing their side. The huge square of seawater, along with their ship, bobbed up and down, lifting them above it, while the pirates who managed to board the ship in time were now submerged by the surging waves.
Tsunami!
With just one punch, the air vibrated and a massive tsunami ensued!
Seeing this, Kuro smiled and said with satisfaction, "Well done, Lida!"
Kuro's hand, which was adjusting his glasses, trembled as he watched Lida throw that punch. He stammered, "The Tremor-Tremor Fruit?!"
What's going on?
Blackbeard was secretly killed by Mr. Kuro? Lida obtained the Devil Fruit and then ate a second one just like Blackbeard?!
I've never heard of that!
"Who says that vibration can only be achieved with the Tremor-Tremor Fruit?"
Kuro happily lit a cigar and said, "As long as you have a similar ability, you can still shake the surroundings, but it's not as simple and straightforward as the Tremor-Tremor Fruit."
By developing the Devil Fruit's power and combining it with the impact characteristic, and then releasing it in one point, one can mimic the vibrations of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit. However, this requires a very high level of Devil Fruit ability development, unlike the Tremor-Tremor Fruit which can be used immediately upon acquisition.
However, it cannot be denied that the earthquake was still a natural disaster.
Only by mastering the ability of 'natural disaster' can one truly step into the threshold of becoming a top-tier powerhouse.
Lida did it!
From the beginning, Kuro had keenly discovered another use for 'impact', and then had Lida start practicing it. Reaching this point can be said to be a natural progression.
This shock alone made Lida fear nothing.
With this skill, even among pirates, she could easily surpass those 'first mates'.
As the sea level continued to rise, the seawater in the fan-shaped area in front churned wildly. Soon, the square, sloping sea area dispersed and transformed into a massive tsunami wave that crashed down.
The pirate ship floated on the waves, then crashed heavily onto the sea as seawater fell in, swaying and tilting for a while.
