Chapter 485 Killer
Vic would usually discuss the ability of Observation Haki to foresee the future with Fredek, because it was really helpful in actual combat, but Fredek's ability to foresee the future was innate, and he didn't know how to help Vic practice to a higher level.
Vic could only ask Fredek to talk more about his feelings when he foresaw the future, but the results were not as expected and Vic still didn't know how to do it.
Although Vic's body has a talent similar to proficiency, which allows it to slowly accumulate skills and domineering power, and slowly strengthen its fruit abilities, the prerequisite is that there is no bottleneck.
When a bottleneck appears, this talent will be useless. Vic himself must break through this bottleneck, and the natural proficiency will be activated again to strengthen it, just like the advancement of the six styles, the advancement of domineering, and the awakening of fruit abilities, which are things that talent cannot do.
So when Vic saw Katakuri's Observation Haki was on the verge of advancement, he became interested. He couldn't get any useful experience from Fredek, so wasn't there something ready-made in front of him?
So Vic decided to fully stimulate Katakuri's ability to foresee the future before killing him, to see if there was anything good about this breakthrough process and whether it could help him break through as well.
As for what Katakuri will do after learning to foresee the future? Will he be able to turn the disadvantage around? This Vic is not worried at all. Foreseeing the future does not mean he is invincible!
Fredek can also foresee the future, but he is no match for Rebecca. Being able to see the opponent's attack moves and trajectory in advance does not mean that you can avoid them.
With so many flying swords from Rebecca, Fredek could only dodge a few or a dozen, but he couldn't dodge the hundreds of swords attacking at the same time. If Katakuri was a true nature-type ability user, with the ability to foresee the future, he might have been able to escape the death, but he is not!
So Vic ignored Smoothie and went straight towards Katakuri. He needed to control the degree of his next move so as not to kill Katakuri directly.
You can't just attack him randomly to make him feel no sense of crisis. That's how Observation Haki works. The stronger the sense of crisis and the stronger the emotional fluctuations, the easier it is to awaken. When thinking this, Vic had already raised his big sword.
Katakuri looked at Xuanlong who was attacking him, his eyes were cold and full of murderous intent. He knew that Xuanlong's murderous intent was getting stronger, and he guessed that it had a lot to do with his foresight of the future just now.
This was intended to kill him before he could fully master the Observation Haki of foreseeing the future to prevent any accidents. He knew that without the domineering power of foreseeing the future, he and his brothers and sisters would surely die today!
He carefully recalled the situation when he had foreseen the future just now, trying to get back to the state he was in at that time, with flashes of light in his mind.
He thought of two factors. Because his opponent was Xuanlong, the pressure on him was too great, so he activated his Observation Haki to the maximum and did not dare to be careless at all, otherwise he would not be able to react to Xuanlong's attack at all!
Then, Xuanlong's sudden abnormality gave him a very bad premonition. His emotions fluctuated greatly and he was worried about his sister's safety. It was only after combining the two that he saw a glimpse of the future!
Katakuri's eyes lit up, his observation Haki had reached the final level, which was the most critical factor in breaking through to foresee the future. After that came emotional changes and a sense of crisis, the latter being the triggering condition!
Katakuri had a vague understanding in his heart, and his excitement was quickly suppressed. He wanted to concentrate on the next battle.
Thus, under Victor's intentional control, Katakuri had many more wounds on his body, which were left after he barely avoided fatal moves.
If he couldn't avoid it, he would really die. That kind of intense life-and-death crisis constantly stimulated his Observation Haki, allowing him to see more future scenes, allowing him to avoid fatal crises time and time again, and making his foresight of the future more and more stable, until he completely mastered it!
During this time, Smoothie wanted to come over to help, but was stopped by Katakuri. Such a battle was both a crisis and an opportunity for him. If he caught him, he could enter another level, so he didn't want to be disturbed.
"Foresee the future! Have you mastered it completely? Is it really fate? What is yours will eventually be lost, it's just a matter of time! Next, I'm really going to kill him!"
Looking at Katakuri who has already mastered the ability to foresee the future, Victor feels a little emotional. Katakuri learned the ability to foresee the future in advance due to his intervention.
It was being mastered bit by bit right in front of him. He watched the whole process and already had some guesses. Next, he was going to kill this future vice-emperor who had just learned to foresee the future.
"What did you say?...Smoothie! Watch out!"
Katakuri was surprised by Vic's words. What did he mean by "really going to kill"? Wasn't it real just now? He couldn't say anything more. The scene he saw with his observation Haki made his heart skip a beat and his face changed drastically. He quickly reminded his sister who was still watching the show.
As soon as Katakuri finished his words, Vic swung his sword and slashed out a huge sword energy in the direction of Smoothie. With Feng Yi's help, the sword energy was incredibly fast and arrived in front of Smoothie in an instant.
Fortunately, with Katakuri's reminder, Smoothie managed to hold the sword in front of him, but Vic's sword energy was too powerful, and Smoothie had no good place to leverage in the air, and was directly pushed far away by the sword energy, and his figure disappeared in an instant.
After slashing out with the sword energy, Vic no longer paid attention to Smoothie. He disappeared from the spot with a light step. When he reappeared, he was already close to Katakuri, and the Blood Dry, which was wrapped in Armament Haki, was already raised.
Vic's original purpose was to separate the two people, prevent Smoothie from interfering with him, and then kill Katakuri in a short time. Katakuri, who has learned to foresee the future, is obviously a greater threat. If there is a master like Smoothie cooperating with him, the battle will not be over in a short time.
Although Katakuri saw the future, Vic's speed was too fast. He was distracted by reminding his sister. Although the flesh and blood on his waist turned into glutinous rice paste, when the black knife just cut his waist, it was still flesh and blood. It was only after being cut that it was urgently separated and turned into glutinous rice paste.
In other words, Katakuri was still injured by Victor's attack, but he stopped the damage in time and his body was not cut in half.
Katakuri, who was cut in half after being transformed into a pseudo-element, looked solemnly at Vic in front of him. Glutinous rice paste grew in the middle of the two parts of his body, pulling the upper and lower body together.
The ability to foresee the future and his fruit ability does not make him invincible. As long as there is interference, he may be injured if he cannot turn his body into glutinous rice paste in the first time. His domineering aura cannot be defended at all, so he dare not use domineering aura to resist Victor's slash, and can only dodge by pseudo-elementalization.
Seeing that Katakuri was only slightly injured, Vic did not stop his attack, but came close to him again, slashing with the two black swords, ready to kill Katakuri in one fell swoop!
