Chapter 25, The Twenty-Fourth Full Moon! Two Major Cadres Defeated!
"What?" Croobi was shocked. Chu had actually been killed with a single blow?
Even though Chu's combat power ranks last among the three executives, he is not someone that an ordinary person can defeat, enough to shatter Croobi's firm belief in "Fishman Supremacy".
Croobi put on a serious expression and said, "I'm really angry. I'll let you taste the essence of Fishman Karate: Ten-Waisted Fist."
Croobbi assumed a horse stance, placed his right fist at his waist, and threw a punch at Kuina with his left hand.
"Um?"
Kuina jumped back alertly. The next moment, an invisible force struck the tree behind Kuina, and with a loud crash, the tree, which was large enough for one person to hug, snapped.
Beach.
The shouts of battle were deafening.
The fish-man pirates and the merchant ship guards clashed. It must be said that the individual strength of the fish-men is indeed stronger than that of humans. They do not need to train; once they reach adulthood, they will have ten times the strength of humans. With a little training, they will become even more formidable.
The merchant ship's guards, relying solely on their numerical advantage, managed to fight the fish-men pirates to a draw, or rather, barely hold their own.
Black Cat Kroo battles Octopus Hachi.
"Damn humans, don't hide!" Hachi, with six arms, gripped six knives and looked around, searching for the black cat, Kuro.
Kuro suddenly appeared behind Hachi, and silently, his cat claws stabbed down.
"Silent Step!"
It moves at supersonic speeds without making any noise, and attacks enemies by changing its position.
This is one of Kro's signature moves.
when!
But when Kuro's cat claws fell, Hachi's sword was able to block them just right. Fishmen are not only stronger than humans, but also more perceptive. Kuro's moves that made him so fierce in the East Blue had no effect on Hachi, and he was immediately caught in a tough battle.
Ultimately, while Kro has not forgotten the importance of fighting, he prefers to use his intelligence to devise plans and achieve victory.
In the mountains and forests, along the road.
"How about that? You've taken my hundred-watt straight punch and can't get up anymore, right?" Croobbi squatted into a horse stance, sweat dripping from his forehead.
Right in front of him, more than ten meters away, Guina lay on the ground, and the surrounding trees were completely destroyed, all broken, as if they had been ravaged by a storm.
"Cough cough..."
Guina coughed and struggled to get up. Her wounds burst open, blood staining her bandages, and blood also spilled from the corner of her mouth.
"It's not over yet!" She stood up, gripping the katana with both hands. It wasn't a famous sword after all; after several battles, the blade had broken, leaving only a short section.
"Oh? I didn't expect that someone in the East China Sea would actually take my Tile-Straight Fist head-on and still be able to stand up. You are indeed strong, but taste my newly learned Thousand-Tile-Straight Fist!"
The shockwave, launched from a distance, created a chaotic airflow that swept towards Kuina.
Kuina, who was in a sword-drawing stance, suddenly disappeared from view.
"What?"
Croobi suddenly turned his head, and Kuina appeared to his side.
"When you throw a punch, that's when you're at your weakest. One-Sword Style: Full Moon!"
With a slash of the half-sword, in the instant the blade was drawn, Kuina unleashed thirty-six slashes at incredible speed, drawing a circle with dazzling sword light, like a full moon in the sky.
Croobi tried to dodge, but as Kuina said, the Thousand-Watt Punch required him to concentrate all his strength. At the moment of punching, the power poured out, and he was in a "weak" moment where the old power was released and the new power had not yet been generated. His consciousness reacted, but his body stiffened for a moment.
Puff puff puff...
Thirty-six blood flowers exploded on Croobbi's body. He stared in astonishment at Kuina, who had fallen to the ground, her tall body collapsing helplessly backward.
"Whoosh..."
Guina braced herself, staggered a couple of steps, and managed to stand up.
Snap snap snap...
Clapping sounds rang out.
"who?"
Guina suddenly looked up.
"Not bad, Kuina!" A figure walked in the darkness.
Kuina?
She hadn't heard that name for over a year; in the East China Sea, she had been operating under the codename "Penguin."
A familiar voice.
As her body relaxed, the pain and fatigue overwhelmed her, and she could no longer hold on, falling to her side.
An arm caught her and helped her up.
"Is it you?" Guina said weakly.
After capturing and interrogating the two fish-man pirates, Lister, who had been chasing them all the way, said calmly, "You wouldn't be so useless as to die now, would you?"
"Damn it, I'm going to become the strongest swordsman, how could I die here?"
"Then don't move!"
Under the moonlight, Lister examined Guina's injuries and said, "She's badly injured; we need to find a doctor quickly."
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Lister picked up Guina, pushed off with his right foot, and moved quickly using "moonwalk" to a high place, where he discovered a bright light in the darkness.
"Found it!"
Lister carried Kuina to the village that was emitting light, where Arlong and the fish-man pirates blocked the way.
"oh?"
The burning torches dispelled the darkness, and Ah Long immediately spotted the woman who had murdered his compatriots, even though she was unconscious.
Ah Long's gaze shifted upwards, scrutinizing the young-looking man before him: "You're her partner? The guy who sank our ship?"
Lister stopped and looked at Aaron.
This guy has a long, sharp, jagged nose, wears a felt hat, an open-front trench coat, and floral shorts. His abs are exposed, and he has the red sun symbol of the "Sun Pirates" tattooed on his left chest and the symbol of the "Arlong Pirates" tattooed on his left forearm. His eyes are fierce and cunning.
"Looks like your partner is in bad shape. Want to go into the village to find a doctor? But it's a bit difficult to get in from here! However, if you kneel down and apologize to me, maybe I'll take pity on you and find a doctor! Hahahaha…" Ah Long laughed.
Lister raised his head and said calmly, "You must be Arlong, right? The guy who hates humans and practices racism because he witnessed his fellow humans being bullied. It seems you still don't understand why merfolk are discriminated against and exploited!"
Aron's expression changed instantly. He glared coldly at Lister, while the other laughing fishmen, like ducks with their necks being choked, all showed angry expressions.
"Did someone hit a sore spot?"
Ah Long said menacingly, "Boy, who are you?"
Why should I tell you?
Lister put Guina down and let her lean against a tree nearby.
"No matter who you are, you're dead today. Kill him!" Ah Long ordered.
"Yes, Brother Long!"
The fish-men and pirates drew their swords and swarmed forward.
"kill!"
"Kill him!"
"Damn humans!"
Lister stepped forward, ignoring the fish-man pirates who were pouncing on him.
"A bunch of scum, get out of the way!"
The fish-men pirates were blinded and couldn't see how they were attacked. They only knew that they were hit hard, thrown into the air, and then crashed to the ground, losing consciousness.
