Sazir was a little confused, really.
Haki is essentially a manifestation of willpower. Whether it's Armament Haki or Observation Haki, this is the most basic requirement. Everyone in this world possesses the aptitude for Haki in both Armament and Observation Haki. Once the willpower is sufficient, one can acquire Haki through training.
Are there any Haki users in the world? Of course there are. People who escape from the Grand Line may have weakened wills after experiencing defeat, but there are always some with high moral standards who can use a bit of Haki. That's normal.
But this is the East China Sea!
The East Blue, with an average bounty of three million, is a place where even Devil Fruits are considered legendary!
Three people with domineering auras have appeared in a row, and judging from the situation, their domineering aura skills are quite high. What's going on here?
Wait a minute! The script is wrong!
Having finally reached the weakest sea in the East Blue, and having finally encountered pirates there, the double joy overlapped, and this double joy should have brought even more joy. It should have been a dreamlike time of crushing the weak, a chance to initially demonstrate Sazel Kuro's power to the pirates of the East Blue.
I was first! Everything was my first time. I was the first to come here to find this treasure chest uncle. Whether it was finding the pirates or crushing the weak, I was the first to do it all!
"Damn it! Why are you still in the East Sea?!" Sazir roared.
"Kill him!"
William answered him, clenching his fist and slamming it into the ground. Hot steam burst from his arm and shot straight into the earth.
In an instant, Sazir felt a burning pain all over his body. Instinctively, he turned around and shouted, "Everyone, retreat!"
At the same time, he pushed off with his foot and was about to back away.
Whoosh!
Montblanc quickly approached Sazir, leaping into the air and raising his legs high, then forcefully cleaving them down like a battle axe.
"Diamond Smash!!"
Sazir's pupils contracted, and he felt a chill run down his spine. He felt as if his head was about to shatter as the kick came down from mid-air, but there was no time to retreat.
He gritted his teeth, his arms exuding an aura of dominance, his fists crossed, and a burst of energy emanated from his arms, his whole body tense.
"Strike Tide, Nail Fist Technique, Iron Body—Ming Wang Xiang!!"
BOOM!!!
The leg struck down like an axe, creating a deafening roar and sending shockwaves that sent the upper parts of nearby trees flying.
Sazir's body slammed down heavily, causing the already cratered ground to expand even further.
Meanwhile, Montblanc, seemingly thrown back by a shock, spun around in the air before landing next to William. He shook his numb legs and grinned, saying, "You actually blocked my kick! No wonder you're Kuro!"
“This is troublesome!” Elmira said solemnly.
In their eyes, Sazir stood in the pit, his head slightly lowered, his expression unreadable, but the more he looked like that, the more terrifying they felt about the man.
In their view, Sazir was unharmed after the attack.
And Sazir...
He wasn't just posing; he was using almost all his strength and was now adjusting his breathing, hence the posture.
This move, 'Ming Wang Xiang', is a new technique he developed by combining his abilities, fist techniques, iron body, and Haki. It was designed to prevent him from being beaten up... no, it was designed to showcase his ultimate defense. Although it was newly developed, he had used it once in front of Mr. Kuro, and even Mr. Kuro praised it. This move requires the opponent to use most of their power in their beast form to break through his defense.
Mr. Cloth praised her with the compliment of being a "durable punching bag"!
Even Vice Admiral Kuro expressed his surprise, saying, "What happened to you?"
This means that his divine king appearance is recognized!
But this man was actually able to break through it. The force of that kick was not low, but it didn't seem to be his full strength.
His domineering aura far surpasses his; this guy... Sazir is no match for him.
So, why are there these guys in the East China Sea?
Where did it come from?!
"alright!!"
Just then, William suddenly roared and slammed his arm into the ground again.
However, in that instant, Sazir laboriously moved his feet and moved a distance away.
boom!
From his previous position, the soil was directly blasted open, bursting out a jet of gas like a pillar.
Boom!!
The surrounding earth also burst forth with scorching white gas, breaking through the soil and shooting almost directly into the sky, making the surroundings hazy, especially the sky, which was densely covered by this gas, as if the sky were covered with white fog.
“I fear you, but sometimes I also think about what it would be like if I defeated you.”
"So, amidst fear and anticipation, I am gathering my strength. I do not wish to clash with you, but at this point, we must have a battle. I must break through the obstacles you have placed upon me!"
William drew his rapier, and his body also transformed into white gas. His body began to combine with the white jet of gas, gradually forming a terrifying white giant. His lower body merged with the gas, while his upper body also transformed from gas into a huge human shape. The rapier was also wrapped in gas, turning into a scorching giant sword that jetted gas.
This gas...
“Steam…” Sazir murmured, looking at the enormous gas giant.
"That's right, I am a Steamman who ate the Steam-Steam Fruit, but I never thought that Logia-type Devil Fruits were anything special. However, I'm sure I can put up a fight against you!"
The steam giant opened its mouth and roared at Sazir, "Come on, Kuro!!"
