Ouf stared blankly at the white mist that had regrouped, clenched his fist, and threw a powerful punch.
"Navy and pirates? We've been that for a long time! Cass, you know nothing! Strike! Super Cannon!!"
The fist struck the surrounding air, creating a huge shockwave, and the punch landed squarely on the white mist.
Boom!!
The white mist rippled like water, but this time, it didn't break through.
Instead, the white mist surged forward along with the attack, wrapping around Ouf's body.
"This kind of thing..."
Just as Auf was about to break through, his body suddenly trembled. Within the white mist, there seemed to be an indescribable power shaking his mind and body.
“Ba…” he said, his eyes wide with disbelief.
"Auf!!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Cass emerged from the white mist, appeared in front of Ouf, stared intently at him, and punched him hard in the face.
Bang!
This punch may have been powerful, but in front of the battle-hardened Of, it was just an ordinary punch.
But even with that fist, it still managed to embed itself in his face, sending his body flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground.
"You bastard!!"
Ouf's right cheek was swollen high. He straightened up and pounced.
"Striking Tide, Roaring Waves!!"
Bang bang bang!!!
His fists moved like afterimages, carrying shockwaves as they struck directly at Cass.
The white aura surrounding Cass also coordinated with the area behind him to form a giant shield, allowing the attacks to strike the shield.
This frenzied attack only created ripples on the giant shield.
"Break it open! Break it open!!" Auf roared wildly.
No matter how he punched, the white mist that had just opened up would immediately heal.
"Human will is limitless."
From behind the giant shield, Cass's voice rang out, "Even if you break it temporarily, as long as your will remains, you will rebuild it. Give up, Of, you can't beat me."
Cass's words made Ouf's fist pause slightly.
"Give up, those people have already run away, and you can't beat them anyway."
A familiar voice, which seemed to have been absent for a long time, inexplicably rang in my mind.
I can win!
Ouf's eyes widened, bloodshot from the whites. He swung his fist back and slammed it down hard, roaring:
"I can keep winning!!"
BOOM!!!
The fist pierced through the giant shield, punching a hole that took a long time to heal.
A sinister grin spread across O'F's face as he looked at Cass's face appearing in the cave entrance: "See? I can win!"
He was stunned the moment he looked over.
Cass looked at him quietly, tears streaming down his face from his tiger-like eyes.
"My friend..."
He looked at Ouf with deep sorrow, "Why, why are you so sad?"
Auf froze as if struck by lightning, staring blankly at the tears on Cass's face.
Memories begin to resurface.
That was more than twenty years ago, shortly after Roger's death.
"Cass, you go first. After I've taken care of the people at the dojo, I'll come over too! You make a name for yourself over there, and then I'll come find you and fight for you!"
On the shore, the young boy, Of, grinned at Cass with a bright smile.
"OK!"
Cass, who was already showing signs of growing a lot of body hair, nodded emphatically, but then asked doubtfully, "Why don't you come with me? Wouldn't it be better if we joined the Navy together?"
Auf and Kas learned boxing at a dojo in Donghai.
The two had agreed to join the navy and were originally going to leave together.
However, Auf was recently confessed to by the daughter of the dojo master, so he can't leave for the time being.
“I also have an evil waiting for me to subdue!” Ouf said in a serious tone.
Um!
A great evil!
More than upholding justice, Naiko... no, love is more captivating.
Compared to someone like Cass who has no talent, Of is the strongest in this dojo.
He had mastered the art of boxing almost perfectly.
He was highly regarded by his master at the dojo. Even though he had never joined the Navy, he had encountered pirates who came ashore, and he had dealt with them all by hand.
Many naval branches in the vicinity also came to invite him after hearing of his reputation.
However, Of didn't agree. He enjoyed everything at the dojo, and he had made a promise to join the Marines with Cass.
But now...
“Some things change over time, Cass.”
Watching Cass's retreating figure, Of shook his head: "Friend, I'm sorry, I haven't experienced love yet. However, I will still fight evil, and being a bounty hunter is also an option."
As he spoke, he turned around, his eyes almost turning into hearts, his body undulating and running like a snake.
"Shana, I'm here~"
...
Things change over time.
As if it were a curse, Auf's words came true.
That day, he received news that pirates were nearby, so he went to wipe them out and earn some bounty.
But when they returned, all they saw were burning villages and completely destroyed temples.
The master who dismembered the corpse.
And Shana, whose heart was pierced...
"It was too late when we arrived."
Upon hearing the news, the Marines arrived apologetically, saying, "I'm sorry, Orf, we didn't expect another wave of pirates to come here."
"Why? Why are you all so slow!"
