Chapter 44 Seven Days (Part 2)
"He is indeed my valued opponent!"
Jhin smiled, without any hesitation, and charged forward with another burst of speed.
Katakuri wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, smiled fiercely, and actually put away his awakening ability.
The ground immediately returned to a messy state.
Then, a bright trident wriggled out from his Nian Gao arm. This was his weapon "Tulong".
Apparently, Katakuri, who was aroused to fight, has given up on using the extremely stamina-consuming Devil Fruit awakening ability, and decided to use physical combat to decide the outcome with his opponent.
Although this was undoubtedly a way to attack the enemy's strengths with his own shortcomings, it was also a helpless move considering the little physical strength he had left.
As expected, the human-animal Jhin knocked the opponent back repeatedly with just a pair of strange slashes from his wings, causing sparks to fly.
Katakuri also waved his weapons to resist again and again, but was unable to fight back for a moment. However, relying on his knowledge and color, he was still able to maintain a watertight defense and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
Jhin attacked fiercely and said with a happy smile: "What's wrong? Is this all you have without your ability?"
Katakuri, however, was completely unaffected by the opponent's provocation. While resisting, he said calmly: "I was wondering before, why you didn't see you with a weapon this time, and now you have to transform to fight me!"
Jhin said indifferently: "The sword was broken before, but I am not a swordsman anyway! There is no style in fighting, it doesn't matter how you fight, winning is the most important!"
Katakuri also knew that Jhin's entire body could be used as a weapon, and said calmly: "The killing weapon of Beasts Pirates is truly well-deserved!"
"Are you still interested in talking about this now?"
Jhin let out a dull roar, and immediately increased the intensity of his two-wing attack. With one powerful blow, he pushed the opponent's body directly away, and took the opportunity to stretch his wings and pursue him, without giving the opponent any chance to breathe.
Katakuri was hit by the strange force and slid backwards rapidly, until a wall cracked and collapsed before the impact was offset.
Before he could adjust his breath, red light flashed in his eyes, and the opponent's attacks were already coming one after another.
At this time, he could have chosen to deform his body in advance to avoid the attack, but he still kept his previous promise and chose to take the attack head-on.
The trident in his hand instantly took on a dark armament color, struggling to resist the opponent's black wing slash.
The extremely strong black wings were comparable to two giant knives, beating the trident to the point of bursting into flames and even bending.
Unfortunately, Katakuri's earth dragon was extremely tough, and even so it never broke.
Then the curved weapon straightened instantly, and he quickly retreated with the help of this elastic force, widening the distance.
Jin, who was in full momentum, was not willing to give the opponent a chance to breathe, and instantly turned into a black afterimage and attacked.
"We have to find a way to fight back!"
Katakuri frowned, adjusting his breath while thinking about ways to reverse the situation.
Jhin, who gave up defense and attacked with all his strength, was astonishingly fast, almost on par with him, and was clearly better than him in terms of armament and strength.
And without giving up the fruit ability, Katakuri's advantage is only one of seeing and hearing.
So, he decided to make good use of this card.
Thinking of this, Katakuri's pupils turned into a light red, and the peak Observation Haki was opened to the maximum extent.
"Unlimited pre-reading!"
This is his most terrifying trump card. He can continue to turn on his ability to foresee the future for a period of time, forming a 360-degree dynamic vision that can easily read the enemy's next combat action. All movements will be reflected in his eyes, including the short future that is about to happen.
It can be said that this is the ultimate use of human knowledge. The requirements for Haki's cultivation are very high, and Haki's consumption speed will be accelerated. Even Katakuri can only activate it for a short period of time.
In an instant, even Jhin at high speed seemed to slow down in his eyes.
Just before the black wing slash came, Katakuri's figure disappeared from the place in an instant, and the next moment he appeared directly above the opponent.
The pitch-black trident struck fiercely, hitting his back directly.
Jhin himself didn't react at all. He groaned and was slapped on the ground so hard that the ground cracked and collapsed.
And he also kept his promise and did not use the flame state to defend against the opponent's attack. He was caught off guard and his energy and blood surged.
But Jhin's physique was still strong, and he adjusted his condition instantly, soared into the air, and launched another feint attack.
However, he didn't know that his thoughts had been read by the other party again.
Katakuri sneered and said to himself: "Thinking in the east and attacking in the west? This is simply ridiculous!"
He moved and once again dodged before the opponent's attack arrived.
This time Jhin also discovered the clues. The opponent was not much faster than him, but he could always launch a counterattack one step ahead of him.
"Could it be that?" Jhin was suddenly startled, and his body suddenly retreated.
As everyone knows, his retreat direction was also predicted by the opponent.
"There's no point in hiding in front of me!" Katakuri had already arrived behind him one step ahead.
The swift armed trident swung out again and slashed away.
Jhin tried his best to speed up and resist, but only had time to raise his wings to block.
The air exploded, like a muffled thunder on the ground, echoing in the mirror world.
Katakuri was waiting for work. This extremely fast and extremely hard blow gave Jin no time to resist with all his strength. He was immediately ejected by the missile. Blood stains spattered out, and several stone pillars were broken with a bang. Finally, he hit the wall hard. Deeply embedded in the cracks.
Katakuri held the trident and walked over slowly, but his sight color was still turned on, locking the opponent tightly.
At this time, Jin, who was stuck in the crack of the stone, slowly raised his head, broke free from the shackles of the rock and jumped down. He covered his chest with blood bleeding from the corner of his mouth and said with sincere admiration: "It's really tricky to predict the future! I didn't expect that a person who has seen and heard can be... If you apply it to this extent, no wonder BIG.MOM has been able to sit on the Four Emperors position for so many years!"
Katakuri was not complacent, but said seriously: "Your strange strength and weapon color are also very troublesome. In a head-on confrontation, I am indeed not as good as you! So I have to use tricks!"
Jin smiled and said: "I said before, the way of fighting is not important, winning is the most important!"
"Now that you have shown your trump cards, I can no longer hide my clumsiness!"
Katakuri frowned, an ominous premonition welling up in his heart.
Jhin once again stretched his wings and took off into the air, coldly looking down at his opponent below.
"Dan Gong Black Emperor!"
His wings were covered with a strange black sheen, and with a sudden wave, an afterimage was shot out. In a trance, it seemed as if his wings suddenly stretched dozens of times, like a huge black scythe being swung down.
The fast Ultimate, the kind of speed that even cuts through the air resistance is Katakuri's first experience. The speed of slashing is comparable to that of a laser beam.
He had obviously foreseen it, but his body was moving too fast to react.
Katakuri could only raise his trident to resist.
The black whirlwind split straight through the surrounding walls and ground, forming a terrifying gap hundreds of meters long.
Katakuri, who was forced to resist head-on, felt a force of heaven-collapsing force coming from the end of the weapon. His arms went numb for an instant, and the ground beneath his feet shattered and exploded. His body suddenly slid backwards. It dragged out two deep long ditches, and finally slipped, and the body rolled backwards, smashing a hole of dozens of meters in the ground.
The next moment, he jumped up with his weapon in hand, and couldn't help but cough up a pool of blood.
He had already seen what he had seen before. The phantom shot by the opponent just now did not really lengthen the wings, but used a very strong armed color to wield the sickle wind, just like the slash of a great swordsman, and the speed was as fast as It makes it impossible to dodge at all, and it is even more powerful.
Similar to his infinite pre-reading, Jhin's move also develops the weapon color to a very high level, but it is also extremely draining on Haki.
"It's useless to see and hear!" Katakuri felt awe-struck in his heart, and his pupils returned to normal.
Jhin then slowly fell down and asked, "How long have we been fighting?"
Katakuri replied: "It's been seven days and seven nights, it doesn't matter anymore!"
Jin nodded and continued: "There's no point in delaying it any longer. Let's decide the outcome with the next move!"
Katakuri was startled, then smiled and said, "Just what I wanted!"
The physical strength of both of them and Haki's consumption have reached the critical point.
"Emperor Dan Gong!"
Black Wing flashed away.
"Nutuan thrust!"
The trident also rotated rapidly, and all the remaining Haki was poured into it.
The moment the two violent attacks collided, the air waves and impacts spread out in circles, setting off a wave of gravel, dust and smoke.
All the mirrors with a radius of 100 meters exploded.
The entire mirror world was engulfed in terrible vibrations and loud noises.
