In the circular martial arts arena, the fierce battle continued.
No matter how violent the storm was, there was a time when it would stop. Luffy's "Rubber Storm" had to stop after punching thousands of punches. The two of them had already risen to nearly a hundred meters in the air.
"Damn...so hard!"
Luffy gritted his teeth, and the surface of his fists were all blue and purple. On the opposite side, Ace's body had no scars except for the initial fist mark. Large flames flew away from Ace's body, forming a huge flame vortex.
He wetted his fist with sea water and actually hit it, but why... When he hit Ace, he felt a long-lost bruise and pain, as if his bones were about to be shattered. When he hit, he felt something different.
Instead of bombarding the flesh, you are striking in vain against an indestructible piece of iron.
Ace was no less surprised than Luffy.
His natural type of burning fruit does have a weakness like water, but the little sea water covering his fist is not enough to capture his own body. How did this kid do it? And the weapons he subconsciously displayed
The Se Haki Armor should be able to knock all of Luffy's fists away, but it seems that armed with the Se Haki Armor, it doesn't have the desired effect.
"Rubber rubber..."
Luffy, who was in mid-air, suddenly extended his right arm downwards, and half of his arm fell directly into the sea water. You can see that his right arm was spinning at high speed and twisted into a twist. With a loud roar, his right fist was wrapped in the sea water.
The surface of the sea collapsed and flew towards Ace in the sky with a high-speed rotation!
"[Spiral Bullet]!"
Ace did not believe in evil, and the flame vortex behind him turned violently. He stretched out his right palm, and a huge pillar of fire suddenly shot out from the palm, flying towards the rubber arm that was blasting towards him.
"[Kage Flame]!"
The pillar of fire collided with the rubber arm, making a huge explosion. But the stalemate didn't last for two seconds. The pillar of fire was directly blown away by the rubber arm, and hit Ace's crossed arms in front of him, knocking him out.
He hit the sky again and flew dozens of meters.
"How is that possible?" Nami's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief. She was good friends with Ace and knew his fruit abilities quite well. How could such a small amount of sea water capture a person with natural-type Burning Fruit abilities?
Ace's true form?
Usopp and Karina didn't care about it and didn't know what it meant. They just happily cheered for their captain on the deck and jumped up and down.
"Master, what exactly is this..." Nami was full of doubts and could only turn to look at Victor.
Victor put his hands in his pockets, looked up at the two people fighting fiercely in the air, and smiled slightly: "What a child full of potential."
"potential?"
"It's impossible for a little seawater to have an impact on Ace's flame body, but this kid just did it."
Victor narrowed his eyes slightly and locked his gaze on Luffy: "He himself has very strong talent potential, and he has been tempered by an expert in an almost random method to fully stimulate his life potential. This happens to be in line with the armed domineering
The entry threshold. It can be seen that this expert wants to lay a solid foundation for this child, and wait until the time is right to activate the weapon color for him, and then he will get twice the result with half the effort."
Nami couldn't accept it: "Did this kid have awakened his armed color during the battle?"
Not to mention her senior brothers Trafalgar Law and Ace, it took her a full five years to lay a good physical foundation and learn how to use weapons. This little monkey-like boy was actually...unacceptable in battle!
"Don't be too surprised, some people's 'combat talents' are so amazing. Didn't Ace also awaken his armed color when he fought the Vice Admiral in the Chambord Islands?"
Victor put his hands in his pockets and said in a relaxed tone: "The firm belief that he does not want to lose to his brother, coupled with the fact that he subconsciously began to explore after knowing the concept of armed color, this child already has some signs of armed color. In 'Water'
With the help of the assistant, it is not impossible to touch Ace's true body. However...is Ace going too far?"
In mid-air, during the battle with Ace, Luffy relied on his rubber body to continuously resist the heavy punches from his brother, and kept using his extended arms to scoop seawater from below and splash it on himself to fight against Ace's flames.
A solid punch hit the side of Ace's face!
Kicked Luffy hard on the chest!
The two brothers struggled together while falling. Luffy's unique fighting style was completely unfazed by Ace, who had been strictly trained by Victor and Barrett. Due to the special properties of rubber, he even had a small advantage in close combat.
A small advantage. Even if Ace is losing his temper, this is a gratifying growth.
Bang!!
Both of them fell onto the circular martial arts field and jumped to both sides.
"Ace, have I become stronger?" Although there were bruises on his face, Luffy's face was filled with an optimistic and cheerful smile.
"Idiot... stop talking nonsense." That's what he said, but Ace couldn't help but laugh. What could be more gratifying than watching his little brother grow up and thrive?
Ace was about to chat for a few more words when he suddenly saw Victor on the deck of the restaurant not far away with his hands in his pockets and a playful smile on his face. He immediately shuddered and turned to look at Luffy seriously: "Luffy, let's get real.
Got it!"
"Oh!" Luffy responded loudly with his arms wrapped in sea water and a serious look on his face.
The substantial flame surged and condensed into a flame cloud that wrapped around Ace's shoulders and behind him, like the statue of Nioh in the temple of Wano Country. He opened his posture and lowered his body slightly, raising his flaming fists one after another.
, even the black hair on his head turned into a blazing red flame:
"[Fire God Martial Body]!"
"That's so cool, Ace!" Luffy cheered loudly when he saw this, with stars in his eyes, and then he remembered that he was still fighting. He broke off a large piece of the circular martial arts arena floor, bent it hard, and scooped up a big
A basin of seawater was poured on his body, and he raised his fists one after another in a wet posture, looking like he was unwilling to lag behind:
"Uh, sea...sea water...[Seawater Luffy]!"
"No need to bother coming up with a name!" the onlookers shouted.
Nami looked at Victor and said in a low voice: "Master, how easy was it for him to open your 'zipper arena'?" The implication is that you have already let yourself go, so don't be too nervous after the battle is over.
Blame it on Ace.
Victor chuckled: "Haha, that kid is really strong."
Seeing that her master was determined not to let go, Nami had no other choice but to silently give Ace some incense.
Looking towards the huge circular martial arts arena, rubber and flames have converged to start a fierce close combat.
