Two days later.
The sun rises and the moon sets, the moon rises and the sun sets, repeating this cycle twice. The sky is still the same sky, though now stained with crimson blood and black lightning. The sea is still the same sea, only now it is much raging, churning up waves.
On that small island, several people gathered together, with a campfire burning in the center. On the coastline, there was a huge, blind sea monster with a hole missing from its most prized part. And on the campfire, sizzling, juicy meat was roasting.
"Still not awake?"
Onigumo held a skewer of grilled meat and looked at the lying Marine over there, his gaze slightly sharp.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Crocodile let out a strange laugh, then said, "They definitely won't wake up. Their will isn't strong enough to handle this mixture of killing intent and Conqueror's Haki."
"Crocodile..."
The flying squirrel beside him frowned as it watched him.
This person is no longer a Shichibukai; he's just an ordinary pirate. Logically, we should be able to capture him, but if we act now, we might force Crocodile to Barrett's side, since he helped these people in the Barrett matter.
The island was almost split apart before, and it was he who used his power to forcibly reunite the island.
Now is not the time to deal with him.
"Hey, Lida, have some..."
Kro, still in his werewolf form, walked toward Lida, who was standing on the edge of the island, staring intently as she drifted further and further away. Lida's island had been divided into large and small rocks and sand islands.
Lida shook her head. "You eat it yourself. I'm not in the mood right now."
As she spoke, she glanced at Chloe and asked, "Why are you still holding onto your abilities?"
"I'll faint if I don't maintain this form," Kro said bitterly.
Lida didn't reply to him and continued looking ahead.
At this distance, she can't see much, because it's already quite far away, and with the intense, high-speed battle scene, all she can see are the occasional shattered rocks and the tsunami that seems to appear out of nowhere.
Even the sea monsters that landed on the island to be shared with those people were brought there by the aftershocks of Kuro and Barret's battle.
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
After two days of fighting, this was the kind of sound Lida heard most often.
Each time the sound rang out, either a huge blood-red light could be seen, or an exaggerated shockwave could be seen. When it hit the sea, it either split the sea into an abyss or directly exploded into a mushroom cloud in the sea area.
The island they had fought on before was already shattered; it crumbled into pieces in less than an hour when the battle began.
The intensity of their battle was such that every strike was delivered with full force. This sound continued for two days without interruption, but the fact that each sound was so loud indicated that their stamina had not been depleted during these two days and they had not reached the point of being 'tired'.
This was two days of unleashing full power, not the kind of fighting style where they held back. Kuro's stamina is strong enough, but why is Barrett also so monstrous!
"There's still no winner!"
Lida gritted her teeth as she watched the seawater rippled apart by the flying pebbles and sand.
She really wanted to help, but even after two days, Lida didn't find an opportunity.
Bang!
No sooner had the words left his mouth than another explosion rang out, filled with crimson light and blue flames.
But the sound made Lida's ears twitch and her eyes widen.
"It's smaller, it's changed, the intensity has changed!"
Lida shouted back, "Their strength has decreased!"
Upon hearing this, the elite lieutenant generals stopped grilling the meat and headed straight for Lida's location.
...
when!!!
In front of the small island, on the sea full of pebbles, as the sand and sea rushed up, only a blood-red light and blue flames could be seen intersecting. As the seawater receded, two voices appeared there.
Kuro floated in the air, wielding the Luo Gui sword and slashing down. Barrett stood on a large rock and blocked the blow with his hand.
At this moment, both sides began to catch their breath.
"You're no good!" Kuro grinned.
"Why don't you give it a try!"
Barrett grinned maliciously, punched Kuro with all his might, and then stomped his leg heavily on the rock. Purple mosaic-like particles emerged from his leg and quickly covered the nearby rocks and sand island, combining them to form another small island.
The ability of the Fusion Fruit does not allow flight. Although he can 'fuse' with the air to create shockwaves, flight is more about maneuvering.
Although it cannot fly, its powerful hang time is almost equivalent to flying; it just needs to find a place to land.
To prevent Kuro from shattering all his footholds and using the ocean to deal with him, he would occasionally use his ability to combine the fragments of these broken islands to form new small islands.
They masterfully navigated the clashes and battles of ability, dominance, strength and speed, physical skills and swordsmanship.
Besides IQ and EQ, there is another type of 'quotient' called 'competitive quotient'.
This was created by Kuro himself. He discovered that even if some people weren't very bright, they were incredibly skilled in combat.
Barrett's punch sent him flying into the air, and Kuro followed up with a downward slash, unleashing countless black and red slashes with gold outlines that crashed down.
Barrett then unleashed blue flames from his fists, sending afterimages flying upwards and shattering all the slashes.
"It's starting to contract again?"
Both Kuro and Barrett were stunned when they looked at each other after their attack.
I'm conserving my energy again...
Why use "again"?
