Chapter 355 355: “Just as I Want It”
The moment Gals finished speaking, Joy Boy was already launched forward.There was no flashy energy burst, only pure speed and overwhelming physical pressure.
The more Joy Boy fought alongside these strong opponents, the more he understood what Ritt meant by "fun on the sea." How could battles like this ever be boring?
"Rubber Rubber Giant Rocket!"
Joy Boy laughed loudly as both of his arms instantly inflated dozens of times, swelling into massive siege hammers. He drove them in from both sides straight at Gals. The compressed air exploded with a sonic boom.
Gals narrowed his eyes and chose not to meet it head-on.
With a slight shift of his foot, he slipped cleanly through the narrow gap between the two giant fists at the last possible moment.
At the same time, his right hand transformed into a claw, coated instantly in pitch-black Armament Haki.
His strike landed on the joint of Joy Boy's extended rubber arm before it could retract.
Clang!
It sounded like steel colliding with steel.
Joy Boy's rubberized arm shuddered violently under the force of the Haki-infused blow, his attack briefly disrupted. A faint white mark even appeared on the rubber surface.
"Whoa! That's hard!" Joy Boy shouted, tilting his body backward to absorb the impact.
At the same time, his legs snapped out like springs, sweeping horizontally toward Gals' footing.
"Rubber Rubber Whip!"
Gals reacted instantly. He didn't chase the opening, nor did he overcommit after landing a hit.
He simply shifted his body backward with the recoil, effortlessly dodging the sweeping kick and landing steadily on the naval ship's railing.
He shook his wrist and commented in his usual cool tone.
"You've gotten stronger, rubber idiot. But you're still too straightforward. Not stylish enough."
"Hehe! Then how about this!" Joy Boy didn't care at all.
His body twisted and spun like a top, transforming into a violent rubber storm. His arms became twin whips, lashing out in chaotic but wide-reaching arcs.
"Rubber Rubber Random Barrage!"
In an instant, the sky filled with massive fists and kicks. It looked like a wild storm of rubber collapsing everything in its path.
However, none of the attacks struck the ships themselves. Both sides understood the unspoken rule. Fight all you want, but don't sink the ships.
Gals stood at the center of the storm, calm and focused. His Observation Haki was fully deployed, precisely reading every trajectory before it landed.
"Too chaotic!" A-Yang shouted, eyes wide. "This is Joy Boy big brother!"
"So amazing…" A-Xing whispered, holding her breath.
"Hey! Rubber idiot, pull your ear back from the kids. You're still fighting!"
"Ahh!" Joy Boy quickly retracted his stretched-out ear with great reluctance, pretending it had just accidentally flown over.
Ritt watched from the side, expression completely flat.
"Hm. Strength's improving, rubber brain, but the openings are still everywhere. Gals, on the other hand, is getting sharper. Both Armament and Observation Haki are well refined now."
The girl stood quietly beside him, ice-blue eyes tracking every high-speed movement, studying their rhythm and timing like she was analyzing sword principles.
In the center of the field, Joy Boy finally stopped spinning after failing to land a clean hit. His body still bounced slightly from inertia.
"Duang duang duang…"
He didn't feel discouraged at all. In fact, he looked even more excited.
"Hahaha! Gals, you're strong! Then try this!"
He inhaled deeply. His chest expanded like a bellows. His arm stretched backward endlessly until it reached its absolute limit, fist clenched tight.
"Rubber Rubber Giant Revolving Cannon!"
With a roar, the fully charged punch shot forward like a massive cannonball. It tore through the air with violent rotation, carrying overwhelming force straight at Gals.
This time, the power was on a completely different level.
Gals finally became serious.
He planted his feet firmly, crushing a section of the deck beneath him.
The ship: someone please speak for me.
Black Armament Haki spread rapidly across his right arm and half his body, giving it a metallic sheen.
He didn't dodge.
Instead, he unleashed a full-force counterpunch.
"Black Hawk Piercing Strike!"
One large and one small fist collided head-on.
No tricks. No hesitation.
BOOM!
A massive shockwave exploded outward. The sea beneath them caved in before erupting into towering waves. Both ships shook violently.
A-Yang and A-Xing grabbed the railing in panic. The girl froze the deck instantly beneath her feet, stabilizing their position with ice.
Ritt: See? No need for me to intervene.
At the point of impact, Joy Boy's giant rubber fist was violently knocked back. His entire body staggered several steps, shaking his fist in pain.
"Ow! That hurt!"
Gals was also pushed back more than ten meters, carving deep grooves into the deck. His armored arm trembled slightly, but he remained standing straight.
He exhaled slowly.
"Strong."
The two of them locked eyes across the turbulent sea. Instead of stopping, their fighting spirit only grew stronger.
"Again!"
"Just as I want it!"
Ritt remained relaxed. He could see it clearly.
Gals was confident in his strength. And if circumstances were different, the three of them might actually have become friends.
One-on-one meant one-on-one. They never did two-on-one fights.
There had been a time Ritt tried a two-on-one situation before, and Gals immediately called in two Admirals. So let's not get into that.
For now, the kids could still watch.
But if Joy Boy entered his "white cloud state," and Gals entered his partial beast transformation, Ritt would clear the battlefield.
He could tell A-Yang and A-Xing were not ready for this level. Their foundation was still shallow, their worldview too limited. They would learn later. There was no rush.
Because no one is born knowing everything.
