Chapter 342: Lion's Might - Ocean Scroll
Although it is difficult to dodge these flying slashes, you can use slashes to offset them, or simply chop them away with the weapon in your hand. Vic chose the latter.
He waved his hands continuously, deflecting the golden lion's flying slashes. Several islands nearby were affected by these slashes, and many of them were cut off from some corners and fell into the sea below. Although they were small pieces, they were much larger than the warship. One or two of them hit the dog-head warship below.
There was no way Garp would just watch the warship being destroyed, so he disappeared directly on the warship, punched out a few times to smash the scraps of the islands, and then fell freely with the fragments.
The cloak of justice on his back fluttered in the wind, and his agile movements made it hard to tell that he was a man in his fifties.
He could also easily smash the falling island just now, but his reputation had already spread throughout the sea, so he didn't need to show it more. But Vic was a rookie, he needed these positive publicity, he needed to show how powerful he was.
"Lieutenant General Garp!"
Garp's attack caused the marines on the warship to scream collectively, with stars in their eyes. Although it was more shocking that Wick directly annihilated an island, Garp's prestige was not comparable to Wick's, and Wick had only been on the ship for a short time. They didn't know Wick very well and were not so relaxed.
"Neptune type!"
"So many sea kings!"
"You must be kidding, right? I've never encountered this before!"
……
The Marines exclaimed!
"Don't get in the way!"
Garp narrowed his eyes and turned with a hostile look to look at the giant sea kings that were startled by the island fragments falling into the sea.
The sea kings were curious and thought they could have an extra meal today, but they didn't expect that there was such a scary old man here. One look from him made their hearts tremble. They felt that their lives would be in danger if they took another step forward. They didn't dare to have any other unreasonable thoughts and turned around and sank into the depths of the doldrums!
The marines who had been terrified when they saw the warship being surrounded by sea kings just now suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that Vice Admiral Garp was still reliable. Even the giant sea kings had to give him face and retreated just because of one sentence. He was indeed worthy of being the man with the title of naval hero!
After Garp's action, the sea returned to calm. The marines were very curious about what kind of battle had taken place on the island above. However, only a few of them could use Observation Haki, and only Garp could know exactly what happened there.
……
After deflecting the Golden Lion's flying slash, Vic did not wait for the Golden Lion to continue attacking. He wanted to play to his advantage, which is the extreme speed brought by the Thunder Fruit and the Speed Fruit.
Vic seemed to have teleported, and as soon as he disappeared from the spot, he had already arrived at the place where the golden lion was floating. This time the golden lion was really surprised. He could think that the reason why he didn't react and was repelled was because of the sudden attack.
But now he has been fully alert, but Vic still approaches him. At this moment, he is a little envious of Vic's natural ability. He can fly and run at a super fast speed. If he had this ability back then, he might have taken down Roger.
The Golden Lion could only move his legs to block the oncoming knife. Now, stepping in the air was as easy as eating and drinking for Vic, and fighting was no different from fighting on the ground, which made the Golden Lion misunderstand that his Thunder Fruit ability was very powerful.
Vic was full of energy and strength. He swung his arms and chopped at the golden lion as if it was free.
Half an hour passed quickly. Golden Lion had not moved his legs for such a long time since he broke his leg. He felt like he had participated in a marathon and was so tired that he wanted to stick out his tongue. Moreover, it was the kind of marathon where he would die if he didn't run, a death marathon. He dared not relax for a moment.
"Lion Power·Earth Scroll"
This was not a solution, so Golden Lion could only use the ability of his Float-Float Fruit. The island below the two of them seemed to have grown thorns. Many stone pillars grew on the island, getting taller and taller. They became thinner as they went up, surrounding and stabbing towards Vic at an extremely fast speed, and if he wasn't careful he would be pierced through the heart by thousands of arrows.
Vic had no choice but to temporarily retreat from the pressing attack. Several sword energies flew out from the big sword, splitting and cutting the stone pillars one by one, and then continued to attack the golden lion.
Golden Lion just wanted to take the opportunity to take a break. This young man was too fierce. He didn't give him any chance to breathe. If he didn't concentrate, he would be chopped. Now he finally separated from him and didn't let Vic get close to him again.
The Golden Lion continued to activate his ability, stabbing at Vic with ground spikes like crazy, just to rest for a while. Although he could still use Armament Haki to block if he was hit by Vic, the Armament Haki used for blocking would consume more than that for attacking. Otherwise, he would just choose to defend, so it was better to stay away from Vic if possible.
Looking at the endless ground spikes, Vic was annoyed and too lazy to consume his sword energy. He directly used the ability of the Thunder Fruit to send down thunder before the ground spikes could completely attack him, and the stone pillars were destroyed in an instant.
Moreover, Vic himself is a user of nature-type abilities, and these spikes do not have armament color attached to them, so it is useless even if they hit him. However, Vic did not make such an uncertain attempt. The water of armament color domineering is too complicated, and he would not take the risk.
Moreover, Golden Lion is a man with domineering aura, so it is not surprising that he is domineering. If he is tricked, he will be seriously injured. Legendary pirates are not simple characters.
Golden Lion was very surprised to see that Vic, a nature-type person, was still so cautious. A man of this age possessed the ability of nature and was not careless at all. He did not have the slightest pride or desire to show off. Is he really a young man?
Golden Lion had seen countless young people who, as soon as they had a little strength, acted arrogantly and always wanted to show how powerful they were. However, they were taught a lesson every minute. Only Vic was completely beyond his expectations. Golden Lion sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being Garp's disciple, as he had the demeanor of a navy admiral at such a young age.
Seeing that Vic really had no flaws, the Golden Lion decided to change his tactics. This time he directly used the Lion's Power - Sea Scroll to control the sea water and mobilized the sea water that was wrapping around an island.
It doesn't matter if you are not afraid of the spikes. You are a person with special abilities anyway, and people with special abilities will be afraid of sea water. I will use sea water to deal with you. So water tornadoes swept towards Vic, vowing to wrap up Vic and drown him alive.
Lightning is indeed effective against ground spikes, but it has little effect on seawater. It may also be because Vic has obtained the Thunder Fruit for too short a time, and many of his extended abilities have not yet been developed. So for the sweeping seawater, eating the Thunder Fruit not only did not provide any help, but also dragged down Vic's body!
If he was really covered by sea water, it would be quite dangerous. He has not yet adapted to the feeling of powerlessness in the sea water. However, if anyone attacked him in the sea water, he could use lightning to kill the opponent. Although sea water would restrict the movement of the body, it would not restrict the use of abilities, which was different from seastone.
