Chapter 206 - 64

Chapter 64Luffy instantly entered Third Gear, even imbuing his fist with Haki. Didn't Dorry just say he wanted to try a full-power strike?Why not indulge him?Dense, pitch-black Haki began to appear on his fist.The surface of his giant fist even rippled with eerie waves and black light due to the highly compressed energy."Gum-Gum...""Gomu Gomu no Bajrang Gun!"BOOM!When Luffy raised his fist, Dorry felt something was wrong.When it struck, he felt as if the sky itself was collapsing.A shockwave, carrying the signature elastic acceleration effect of Rubber, erupted violently from Luffy's giant fist, rushing forward like a white torrent of destruction.Although its scale and absolute power might not match Dorry's original version, its piercing power and highly compressed destructiveness were even more threatening.It carved a terrifying path directly between the two of them.Stand there and take it with my body?Screw that.Dorry wanted to curse. He raised his small round shield to block it, then used his longsword to forcefully deflect it from the side, sending the shockwave flying straight into the sky.An explosion echoed in the sky, and the scattered dark clouds instantly vanished. The sky was clear for miles, and the sun shone brightly."Huff, huff..."Luffy descended from the sky. Throwing that punch felt refreshing, but the side effects were slightly greater than he had imagined.He had actually shrunk back into his child form.This won't do; I need more training!It seems it's powerful enough to be a finishing move, but it's no good if I lose all my combat ability after one punch. Ultimately, my physical strength just hasn't caught up yet.It's like needing to sprint at a critical moment; you can't just stop and go. You need to be able to charge all the way to the summit to see the scenery of the four seas at peace.However, this scene looked a bit familiar to Nami. She reached out to catch him, but Robinintercepted him mid-air. Having extra hands is really useful."Hey, give Luffy back!"Vivi was instantly tense. Robin's current stance was ambiguous; if Luffy had no combat ability, what if she suddenly defected?"What's the rush? I just think little Mr. Luffy is so cute."Robin smiled and lifted Luffy high up just like Namidid. "Truly an interesting power."Vivi was about to say something, but Namisuddenly grabbed her hand and shook her head at her.Hm?Robin keenly sensed that something was wrong."Hey, Robin, you'll regret this."Before Luffy finished speaking, his body had already grown large, and he pinned Robin beneath him.Compared to when they were in the East Blue, Luffy's body was much harder. Of course, Robinwasn't a woman as helpless as Nami either; she pushed Luffy away instantly.Although she seemed unaffected and stood up after dusting herself off, Nami still found it satisfying to watch.But after her brain slowly processed it, she suddenly realized something seemed wrong.Did I just put a hat on myself?As for Dorry, when he saw Luffy unleash Hegemony, he felt like the sky was collapsing.He began to question his entire existence on the spot."Was I tricked by that old man Jarul?"What happened to the Giant Race's strongest move?What happened to the claim that learning Hegemony in ten years was the greatest talent in the history of the Giant Race?Then what does that make him?"Heeheehee, how about that? Dorry."Luffy flipped and stood up.Dorry was silent for a moment. "You son of a bitch, you really are a genius."Genius or not, that could wait; loud laughter was already coming from the other side of the mountain."GiaGiaGiaGia... Dorry!""KaBaBaBaBaBa... Here I come, Brogy!"Luffy looked up and saw another giant walking towards him from the direction Dorry was heading.A battle between the Giant Race?How interesting.[Warning...]"Stop nagging, can't I develop my Devil Fruit ability by watching them fight?"Luffy cursed inwardly and began extreme multitasking again.He felt that it wouldn't be long before he could split his focus.Compared to that, this grand battle before him was obviously more eye-catching.Two giants—Dorry, wielding a longsword and round shield, and the Brogy he mentioned, wielding a giant axe and round shield—collided fiercely while running.It made one's eardrums tremble."Dorry, today this duel will come to an end, and the winner will be me!""Hahaha, Brogy, you already said that fifty years ago.""Take this axe!"Their weapons collided.Chapter 84: Robin, do you feel like a prisoner?"Too noisy."Nami couldn't help but cover her ears."They talk like friends, even smiling, but when they fight, they aim for vital spots, each strike more ruthless than the last."Vivi didn't quite understand the so-called warrior's honor they spoke of.The massive sounds of battle had attracted Usoppand the others back."Master Brogy is so cool!"Usopp had just met Brogy and received a warm welcome. Now standing at a safe distance, he looked up, watching this battle that could be called a spectacle, his face filled with wonder.He was trembling with excitement. For someone who aspired to become a brave warrior of the sea, the scene before him was practically a legend coming to life."So strong, their power is on the level of the Shichibukai."Zoro had fought Hawkeye, so he had the right to speak. He said, "It's not just strength; their combat techniques and willpower have been honed over a hundred years and have become one. A duel of this level cannot be achieved just by being large."Two giants fighting for a ridiculous reason for a hundred years—calling them idiots wouldn't be an exaggeration, but this persistence was quite manly.Hot-blooded idiots are the easiest to understand and empathize with.Take Luffy, for example.He unexpectedly discovered that watching a high-level battle was quite rewarding.[Through observation training, your Observation Haki proficiency has increased...]There's such a good thing?How long had it been since he got a freebie?Luffy watched with great interest: "How about I try inviting them to join the ship? Having two Giant Race partners would be so cool."Nami vetoed it: "Don't even think about it. How big of a ship would they need for their size?"She was more concerned with practical issues now. She looked down at the log pose on her wrist; the needle was rotating slowly like it was drunk, and she couldn't help but sigh.At this rate, it would probably take a very long time to fully charge the magnetism.Doesn't that mean I have to watch two giants fight every day?I don't want that.However, Dorry, in the middle of the fight, gradually frowned.After another clash of weapons, Dorry asked suspiciously: "Hey, Brogy, what's up with your attacks? How come they're so soft? This isn't your level!"Brogy's forehead was beaded with cold sweat. He braced himself and roared: "Gababababa! Dorry, that's just your imagination. Watch me cleave you away with my next axe strike!"He swung his giant axe again, but his movements were clearly a fraction slower than before, and the force of his swing was far less than before."Something's wrong."Luffy quickly sensed it: "The giant with the axe's aura has weakened."His Observation Haki was already being used more skillfully; his proficiency was almost reaching level 2. The increase in level brought a huge increase in ability.Just as Brogy attempted to launch another charge, a sudden change occurred.Accompanied by a dull explosion, it erupted abruptly from inside Brogy's massive body.Brogy let out a painful grunt, his huge body swayed violently, his battle axe slipped from his hand and slammed heavily onto the ground.He fell to one knee, his face filled with pain and disbelief."Brogy?"Dorry exclaimed, his eyes wide with shock: "What happened?"Before Dorry could step forward to check, the ground beneath his feet suddenly softened, melting like a candle, and quickly solidified into hard wax shackles, instantly binding his legs firmly!Dorry struggled, but for a moment, he couldn't break free from this sudden restraint. His massive body lost its balance and he crashed to the ground with a boom."Heeheeheehee, it seems the plan is going very smoothly."A man with hair shaped like the number 3 walked out of the forest's shadows with a smug smile. It was the high-ranking agent of Baroque Works, Mr.3 Galdino.Following him were Miss Valentine (Haha-sister) and Mr.5 (Explosion Man), who had just been beaten up and sent flying by Luffy not long ago.What is called a high-crime with low-investment is exactly like this.Since a direct confrontation is unfavorable and letting the enemy slaughter is not an option, then engage in side-flanking combat."It's you guys!"Luffy's expression instantly darkened as he said: "How dare you interfere with their duel."Mr.3 elegantly adjusted his glasses and spoke in an operatic tone: "Interfere? No, no, no, we just cleverly utilized an opportunity. The two giant gentlemen were so engrossed in their battle that they neglected a small gift.Mr.5's booger bomb—the taste of it detonating from within must be quite something, right? As for Mr. Dorry, the shackles created by my Wax-Wax Fruit are harder than steel once solidified.""Damn it, Baroque Works again!"Vivi was very angry and also felt a bit guilty. Because of her, even the giants of Small Gardenwere implicated."We were careless last time, Straw Hat, this time we won't let you be arrogant again!"Mr.5 picked his nose and walked out arrogantly.Miss Valentine also floated into mid-air and giggled: "This time I will press you into a meat patty!""You guys."Luffy lowered the brim of his hat, and steam began to slowly rise from his body, "Do you know that a duel is a sacred thing?""Gear Second!"Luffy's body instantly turned crimson, and steam surged out.His figure flashed, and he almost vanished on the spot."Gum-Gum Jet Pistol!""Gum-Gum Jet Bazooka!"
