"Got you!"
Enel's eyes flashed with ferocity, violent lightning surged on the trident, however, just at the moment it was about to hit—
"Bear Paw Impact."
Kuma's expression was calm, without even turning his head, his right hand suddenly swung backward at an inhuman angle and gently slapped, the palm's pad precisely met the tip of the trident.
Buzz!
A terrifying shockwave burst out in a spherical shape, Enel only felt an irresistible mighty force come through, and the trident instantly twisted and deformed!
The whole person was once again blasted hundreds of meters away, crashing heavily into the depths of the ice layer.
"Cough!"
In the ice cave, Enel spat out a mouthful of blood, the golden trident was already broken into two pieces.
He was horrified to find that this time, his elementalized body couldn't fully immunize against this impact, his internal organs were severely shaken.
"An inexplicable ability..."
He struggled to get up and suddenly heard a sound breaking through the air above him. Looking up, he saw Kuma's figure descending from the sky, a giant shadow enveloped him.
"Pressure Cannon · Three Hundred Strikes."
Kuma spoke in a deep voice, his palms striking continuously at a speed difficult for the naked eye to discern, countless transparent bubbles in the shape of bear claws poured down like a torrential rain!
Boom boom boom boom boom!
In the endless explosion sounds, the entire ice plain was trembling.
But...
Enel transformed into a flash of lightning darted quickly, dodging all the pressure cannons.
Kuma quietly watched that flash of lightning.
He had already anticipated this; this was the troublesome part he had minded earlier.
If the opponent took the initiative to attack, he could seize the opportunity to inflict severe damage.
But if the opponent became fearful, unwilling to take a direct hit, only using that powerful Observation and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's high-speed nature for dodging...
Even he would find it difficult to entirely end the opponent in a short time.
But it doesn't matter.
As long as he maintains the upper hand, it's enough, as time goes, the accumulation of injuries will eventually lead to qualitative change.
Lack of patience has never been his shortcoming.
......
Apart from Kuma and Smoker.
The rest of the Endgame cadres were scattered among the various corners of the ice plain, all engaged in fierce battles.
Jack was up against Doberman and quickly gained the upper hand, forcing him into a breathless state.
He didn't transform into a mammoth but was in a state between human and mammoth.
—The so-called "Half-Beastification" form.
The originally burly body rose to over ten meters tall, with a long trunk like a third sword held in someone's mouth.
It seemed useless but could defend the face and occasionally take the initiative to strike unexpectedly, with astonishing effectiveness.
The reason for not turning into the usual mammoth form...
This was something Shano had taught him.
Zoan-type Devil Fruit ability users, especially those with larger and clumsy physiques, turning fully beast form in intense battles is the most foolish combat style.
"A true powerful being must learn to wield the fruit ability flexibly, not be dominated by it!"
"Though the mammoth form is surely powerful and has incredible defense, its speed will drop drastically, becoming a live target for agile opponents!"
"In such cases, timely adjustment to half-beastification, balancing power and speed, is the right approach! Just like that Kaido you have seen!"
Shano's words seemed to still echo in his ears.
Jack deeply agreed with this.
Not to mention, fighting on this ice plain without using your head, turning straight into a mammoth?
Too easy to fall through, sinking into the sea... He has indeed suffered for real in this area, enough to have a psychological shadow.
Thud thud!
His black and hard giant fists slammed against Doberman's saber, creating continuous vibrations, even showing signs of deformation and distortion.
Jack found it easier and easier to fight, even starting to think about Shano's teachings, trying them one by one, incorporating them into actual combat.
But Doberman was completely opposite.
Initially there was a back-and-forth, but as time passed, the fierce battle reached this point, and the saber was showing signs of struggling.
His body was the same.
His tiger's mouth had already cracked open, blood continuously dripping along the handle onto the ice, his entire consciousness growing blurry.
He was just barely holding on with his strong willpower until now.
At this moment, a loud and vibrant shout suddenly came!
"Hold on, Doberman, I'm coming to help you!"
Jack glanced over.
A Vice Admiral draped in a Cloak of Justice was charging towards him.
With a burly figure, a cigar in his mouth, he seemed to be wearing a dog-head hat, but upon closer inspection, one would realize...
The opponent, like him, was a Zoan-type ability user maintaining a Half-Beastification form.
Seemingly called Dalmatia?
Jack licked his ivory, finally showing some spirit.
He had heard from Smoker before, back before he boarded the ship, this guy was with Akainu and had besieged them.
Single-handedly forcing Kuina, the big sister back then, into a disadvantage.
Though they were both Navy Vice Admirals, according to Shano, the gap between vice admirals could be, at times, larger than between man and pig.
This guy is considered a deeply experienced, rather tricky type.
But...
Just in time!
Facing two veteran vice admirals simultaneously, now that's barely interesting enough!
"You think a two-on-one can take me down?"
Jack laughed wildly, his sturdy legs suddenly stomped the ice, his ten-meter-tall body bursting with astonishing speed, closing the distance in an instant.
