Chapter 140 Punching the General
A gust of sand swept by, and Minos perfectly wrapped his fist with the purple flowing cherry blossom aura. The fist exuded a mysterious and powerful aura, as if even the air itself was being torn apart.
His gaze was sharp as he stared directly at Sakazuki, who was also enveloped in advanced Armament Haki. A confident smile played on his lips: "Then let's begin this great battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Minos raised his fist without hesitation and, with unstoppable momentum, slammed it down on Sakazuki.
The wind from the punch howled, as if even space itself was distorted by the force of the blow.
Sakazuki's lips curled into a disdainful sneer, a glint of fighting spirit flashing in his eyes. He swiftly raised his fist, enveloping it in advanced Armament Haki, and clashed heavily with the attack. (I believe Akainu possesses advanced Armament Haki.)
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The dull impacts rang out one after another, like heavy hammers striking war drums, shaking the entire battlefield.
Each punch unleashed a powerful shockwave, cracking the ground beneath their feet and sending debris flying.
Minos and Sakazuki were like two enraged bulls, their blows landing squarely on the ground, neither giving an inch.
They used their Observation Haki to its fullest extent, attempting to discern every subtle movement of their opponent in this intense clash and find a weakness.
However, Minos's advanced Observation Haki and unique Ryuo Haki gave him the upper hand in this battle.
His Ryuo Haki not only possesses extremely strong offensive power, but also contains a strange counter-force.
Each time his fist collided with Sakazuki's, the recoil would travel up Sakazuki's arm and penetrate his body, causing him waves of stinging pain.
As time went on, Sakazuki gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. Cracks began to appear on his magma fists, and his clothes were torn apart by Minos's punches, revealing his chest covered with fist marks.
A trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes remained fierce.
Minos looked at Sakazuki, who was spitting blood, and that mocking smile reappeared on his face. He said leisurely, "Sakazuki, you really are no good!"
"Without advanced Observation Haki that allows you to foresee the future, you are no match for me."
Sakazuki's face was grim. He casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stared intently at Minos, and said in a deep voice, "Minos, I must say, compared to Observation Haki, your Ryuo Haki is indeed quite extraordinary."
During his intense battle with Minos using Ryuo Haki, Sakazuki keenly sensed something extremely wrong.
Although both of them were using advanced Ryuo Haki, Minos's Ryuo Haki was extremely special, containing a powerful counterforce.
When he clashed fists with Minos, he not only failed to gain the upper hand, but was also injured in the process, which filled him with doubt and shock.
Sakazuki took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the discomfort within him, and said coldly, "However, you think you can defeat me like this? You're being too naive!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sakazuki's body suddenly erupted with scorching magma, and the surrounding temperature instantly rose.
His fist was enveloped in magma, as if it had transformed into a lava fist, carrying an aura of annihilation, and slammed towards Minos once more.
Minos's eyes flashed with disdain. He wasn't that old man with the white beard.
Minos took a deep breath, and the purple flowing cherry blossom aura condensed even more intensely on his fist, like an invisible armor.
He met Sakazuki's lava fist without hesitation.
"Boom!" The two fists collided, unleashing a deafening roar.
The power of magma and the Haki of Ryuo intertwined in the air, forming a huge energy vortex that tore apart the surrounding air.
While Sakazuki's Lava Fist was incredibly powerful, it still couldn't gain the upper hand against Minos's Ryuo Haki.
The recoil force invaded Sakazuki's body again, causing him excruciating pain. His fists began to tremble, and the magma was gradually suppressed.
Minos sneered and suddenly increased the power of his punch. His Ryuo Haki surged forth like a tidal wave, instantly shattering Sakazuki's Lava Fist.
Sakazuki's body was thrown backward by the force, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Minos stood still, the Haki on his fist slowly dissipating. He looked down at Sakazuki lying on the ground and said calmly, "Sakazuki, with your strength, you are not enough to contend with me."
"I only used a slight touch, and that was already your limit." (◣_◢)
Sakazuki struggled to his feet, blood still trickling from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with resentment and anger, but even more so with apprehension towards Minos's unique, powerful aura.
“Minos… what exactly is this about your Ryuo Haki?” Sakazuki asked through gritted teeth.
Upon hearing Sakazuki's words, Minos couldn't help but show a smug look on his face. A mocking smile appeared on his lips as he arrogantly said, "This is my own unique Ryuo Haki, so it is naturally different from others and extremely special."
Sakazuki fell silent upon hearing Minos's straightforward response.
He never expected that Minos's Ryuo Haki would be so unique, making it incredibly difficult for anyone to master.
Seeing Sakazuki remain silent, Minos chuckled and provocatively asked, "Sakazuki, are you stunned by some shock?"
Minos then changed the subject, "However, now is not the time to be distracted!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Minos enveloped his fists with his unique purple flowing cherry blossom aura and assumed an attack stance.
In an instant, a white energy appeared out of thin air. However, under the influence of this special purple flowing cherry blossom aura, the white energy was quickly transformed into mysterious purple flowing cherry blossom energy.
Minos's gaze was fixed on Sakazuki not far away, a slight smile playing on his lips as he chuckled, "Take this, Sakazuki."
He then shouted, "Flowing Cherry Blossom - Flowing Water Rock-Smashing Fist!"
Instantly, countless fists radiating a dark purple light rushed towards Sakazuki like a storm.
These purple energy fists rained down, and the powerful aura emanating from each fist shadow was enough to send shivers down one's spine.
The tattered-clothes Sakazuki opposite him snorted coldly, showing no weakness. His right hand instantly transformed into scorching red magma, which he raised high into the sky with imposing force, and he shouted in a steady and powerful voice: "Meteor Volcano!"
In an instant, the sky seemed to be ignited, and countless scorching magma fists poured down towards the ground like meteors, turning the entire sky blood red, as if it had been ignited by these endless magma fists.
"Bang bang bang..." The sounds of intense collisions rang out continuously as countless purple fists clashed violently with the magma fists raining down from the sky.
……
P.S.: The great battle is about to end. (◣_◢)
