Chapter 43 A Major Unexpected Event! Fly into the Sky, Soaring Sea Current!
Controlling the poison vines to form a two-meter-wide non-venomous circle around him, Bazel, carrying the Heavenly Moon on his back, charged towards the enemies who were still flying towards the sea.
"Is the enemy at sea?" Amatsuki asked.
"Hmm, they probably want to use the seawater to restrict my movements."
The red light representing Observation Haki flickered at a very steady frequency within his eye sockets as Bazel analyzed the upcoming battle situation.
"Aside from the seawater, Bundy Wald has learned the Navy's Moonwalk technique, and with his exceptional physical abilities, he shouldn't fall into the sea, at least not for the time being."
"In his view, we may only have two choices."
"I know!"
Tianyue raised his hand:
"The first approach is to stand on the shore and engage in ranged combat!"
"The second option is to risk going out to sea to pursue the enemy, but this would lead to falling into the enemy's trap."
"Bondy Wald is a user of the Multiply-Multiply Fruit, and his ranged attacks are much stronger than ours, so no matter how we fight, he has a higher chance of winning."
"Theoretically speaking, that's correct."
Bazel smiled knowingly:
"But he overlooked one point: I can also use aerial techniques like Moonwalk, and the power of Poison Ivy is not just as simple as the Poison Domain."
"If fate doesn't favor him, today will be the end for the Wald Pirates."
"The toxins accumulated in his body are no longer enough to sustain him in the second round of combat."
……
Jaya Island, located in the northwest near the sea.
Bondi Wald hovered high in the air, his gaze occasionally sweeping across the coastline to confirm the enemy's tracks.
"So you've come after all. Come, enter the sea and fight me. I will make this your grave."
A figure sped out of the forest; it was Bazel, carrying the Heavenly Moon on his back.
"Bondy Wald, your pirate career is over."
"Ara ro ro ro~~~"
"Stop joking, kid! While I was fighting on the high seas, you were still nursing in your mother's arms!"
Bondi Wald toyed with the pebbles in his hand, his eyes filled with amusement.
"Come on, kid, either you kill me today, or I'll make sure you can't sleep tonight."
"..."
Bazel slowly walked towards the nearshore waters, jumped onto a nearshore reef, and stretched his right hand into the sea under Bondi Wald's incredulous gaze.
"What, you know you can't beat me and you're planning to surrender?"
"Surrender? You'll find out soon enough."
The white poison ivy coiled around Bazel's arm and burrowed into the sea.
Knock knock~~
The waves near Bazel began to pulsate as if they had come to life.
This detail was naturally noticed by Bondi Wald.
"wrong!!"
"Ten Times Speed Shotgun!"
The gravel flew toward Bazel at an extremely high speed.
but……
"Disintegrate, Poison Ivy, Heart of Poison!"
Buzz---!
In the time it takes to breathe, the sea within a kilometer radius suddenly turned a deep purple, just like the scales of the Balzer.
"Awaken, sea of poison!"
boom!
A wave hundreds of meters high suddenly surged up, engulfing the stones that were flying toward Bazar.
"Only 3 minutes? That should be enough."
Because of the activation of the second level of Poison Body, only three Phantom Serpent Spirits of Poison Vine Serpent are activated.
Moreover, after releasing this disintegration skill, the three Phantom Serpent Spirits will disappear immediately.
Bazel could only use the Redeemer to transform into a new Phantom Serpent Spirit afterward.
"A massive tsunami."
Taking advantage of the giant waves rising from the sea, Bazel returned to the coastline, carrying the already drawn sword, Tengetsu.
"Are you ready?"
"Charge! Charge! Charge!" Tenzuki Toki waved his sword excitedly.
Shave, Moon Walk!
Bundy Wald's expression changed slightly as he dodged awkwardly.
"Why do you know the Six Styles of the Navy!?"
"Isn't this simple method of action easy to understand at a glance?"
Bazel retorted with the same words Bondi Wald had said before, supporting his partner's glutes with his left hand and making a fist with his right.
Armament Haki turned his entire right arm black.
"Let's go!"
"Oh! Behold my flying slash!"
Tengetsu swung his sword forcefully, and a flying slash less than ten meters long shot towards the enemy.
Bazel: ...
Having grown accustomed to the Golden Lion's hundred-meter slashing attacks, seeing such a tiny one feels a bit strange...
And indeed, that's exactly what Bazell thought.
The flying slash that Tengetsu unleashed didn't even bother Bundy Wald to dodge, let alone injure the enemy.
With a casual wave of his hand, he destroyed the slash.
The toxins flowed from his body to the surface of his right fist. Bazel approached his enemy at lightning speed and then threw a punch.
bang~
"Tsk, what a troublesome ability."
Bondi Wald frowned as he watched the Armament Haki on his arm turn purple.
"Doubling speed, one hundred times faster".
After stacking the speed buff on himself again, Bondi Wald first retreated, then circled around at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, arriving at Bazel's side.
He punched the enemy in the face.
Bazel sensed the punch with his Observation Haki, but he had no intention of dodging.
First, the poison is directed to the area attacked by the enemy, followed by a full-force whip kick.
"hateful!!"
Although he successfully hit the enemy, Bundy Wald knew that he was the one who suffered the loss in this attack.
The fist that struck the enemy was once again contaminated with the poison, as was the side of the waist that was kicked by the enemy.
Reverse quickly.
Bondi Wald shook his severely dizzy head.
The number of enemies in sight has increased from one to three.
Seeing the enemy's pupils begin to dilate, Bazel understood.
The accumulated toxins had exceeded Bondi Wald's tolerance limit; a few more attacks would suffice.
After that, he didn't even need to take action himself; the toxins were able to self-destruct and devour the enemy's body and nerves.
Step back a little distance, open your right hand, palm facing the enemy.
"Devour!"
The purple sea that moved to the feet of Bondi Wald was bubbling like boiling water.
Before the sea could even rise and create waves, several rotting bone fish flew out of the water, their sharp teeth embedding themselves in Bondi Wald's legs.
"Damn it!!"
With a casual crushing of the bone fish's bodies, and dodging the oncoming venomous waves, Bondi Wald stared intently at Bazel.
He knew he had to retreat; if he delayed any longer, the poison in his body would become the final bullet to kill him.
"I'll remember you, Bazel!!"
Upon hearing this, Bazeir knew the other party was about to run away.
He immediately disregarded the poison stacks and used Moonwalk to rush towards the enemy.
boom!
As their fists collided, Tengetsu extended his blade to block another punch thrown by the enemy.
"Poison Ivy!!"
With Bazel's roar, the sea erupted completely.
But what awaited them was not a pure sea of poison.
Bondi Wald's expression changed drastically upon realizing something was wrong.
"Hey, wait a minute, you bastard, let go of my hand! This isn't an attack!!!"
Bundy Wald tried to break free from Bazel's grasp, his face filled with anxiety.
"This is the Sky-Reaching Current. If we, as ability users, are swept away by it, we will face a great crisis!"
A surging ocean current?!
Bazel suddenly looked down at his feet.
The blue-purple seawater had already surged half a meter below, leaving almost no time to escape.
"Ashi!"
Bazel didn't bother to finish off the enemy; he pulled Amaterasu into his arms, with her back to him.
Armament Haki covered his entire body.
"Shrink up, don't show any part of your body!!"
Tianyue did as she was told without thinking, but when she realized what she had done, she looked at the man with a look of horror.
"Wait, Bazel, what are you going to do!?"
"I won't die, it's just a mere ocean current."
Bazel lowered his head, grinned at Tianyue, and said:
"If we reach the Sky Island, I'm entrusting my safety to you!"
boom---
The surging current arrived, and the wildly swirling seawater swept the three of them into it, then continued to move towards the sky.
Bazel coughed up a mouthful of blood.
With her face scalded by hot blood, Tengetsu didn't bother to wipe it off, her little hand trembling as she placed it on Bazel's face.
"You'll be alright..."
Bazel had no strength left to reply; the power of the surging current had completely exceeded his expectations.
I thought that as long as I could withstand the force of the first wave of contact, the rest would just be exhaustion and being carried into the air.
Unexpectedly, after coming into contact with the impact current, the rapidly spinning tornado began to tear his body apart.
Fortunately, the seawater also contained the poison released when the poison ivy disintegrated.
Without time to worry about whether Tianyue would be poisoned, Bazel manipulated the Poison Sea to form a spherical membrane around the two of them.
"The rest..."
Bazel opened his eyes, and the pent-up fatigue and injuries surged into his heart at that moment.
"I'm counting on you."
