Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 464: Man of Light (asking for monthly ticket~)

"Troublesome ants!!!"

"You can't stop me with your own strength!!!"

Clang! ! !
The sharp blade and the black leather boots collided in the air, causing a burst of blazing flames to rise up, blooming like fireworks in the quiet dark room.

Faced with the terrifying force, a hint of blood red appeared at the corners of Sanji's mouth, and his entire expression seemed to be exerting force, extremely ferocious.

On the other side, Shamrock Saint, who tried to attack Zoro many times but was perfectly blocked by Sanji in rapid state, seemed to have finally found a trace of pleasure in brutalizing the Straw Hat Pirates.

Having lost his understanding of the peerless swordsmanship, he has now completely given up his original identity as a swordsman. The supreme sword in his hand has turned into a simple and handy weapon, and he fights against Sanji with his own strength and power.

"What a joke!!!"

Sanji, his body wrapped in crimson flames, shouted.

But under the power of Saint Shamrock, he was defeated step by step.

If he hadn't been able to constantly create opportunities with his outrageous speed, he would have been no match for Saint Shamrock.

And this is what makes Sanji even more angry!
"Why can that green algae-head do it, but I can't?!"

Zoro's slash was able to block even the attack of Shamrock Saint in his prime.

But now, he was having a hard time even facing a Shamrock Saint with a broken arm.

He has a technological body created by absorbing the most advanced technology of the Germa 66 Kingdom. He possesses super regenerative power, a super hard exoskeleton, and is adept at using various abilities such as fire, lightning, and invisibility.

but!

Even so, if it weren't for the advantage brought by the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit, his strength would not be able to compare to that of the green algae-head who relied solely on his own efforts!

Sanji knew this very well.

That's why he mocked that guy crazily when he was in power.

but……

"If I can't even deal with a guy like you...what qualifications do I have to fight him..."

Huh~!

A gust of wind blew, blowing the raging flames all around, making them dance in the air in a majestic posture.

Sanji took a deep breath, and the flame that he had originally released for burning suddenly flowed through his mouth into his body, as if it was being swallowed.

Under the flaming armor, Sanji's eyes flashed with unwillingness and madness.

It was not impossible for him to hold off Saint Shamrock for a few minutes.

only……

Sanji is unwilling to give up!
He was unwilling to follow in Sauron's footsteps forever.

Even this time... he still benefits from Zoro!!!
The surging flames were released crazily from Sanji's body in the form of Pokémon energy, but were also sucked into his mouth in a special way.

In the blink of an eye, all the fire Pokémon energy in his body was consumed.

Instead……

It is the boiling flame burning fiercely inside Sanji!!!
"What...what is this?!"

The blazing flames hit his face, making Saint Shamrock feel as if he was in a world of fire. Every corner and every cell of his body was being baptized by the high temperature flames.

And the supreme sword resting on Sanji's feet looked even more outrageous, as if it was about to be recast, gradually revealing a fiery red light.

Seeing this scene, Saint Shamrock was so frightened that he quickly drew back the sharp blade in his hand and retreated backwards repeatedly.

You know, the reason why the Supreme Sword is regarded as the strongest sword in the world is that in addition to its ability to better carry the sword intent and domineering power, it also possesses various powerful characteristics.

Abilities like being immune to water and fire, and invulnerable to swords and guns are standard features.

However, even such a world-famous sword almost couldn't withstand the high temperature released from Sanji's body and was turned back into liquid metal form.

This is really...

This is too outrageous!
These guys are not human, are they monsters! ?

Saint Shamrock was horrified.

But Sanji on the opposite side seemed to have entered a certain state. He did not continue to chase Shamrock Saint, but slowly closed his eyes.

From the beginning, he had been thinking, since Zoro can use his sense of oppression to develop a move that directly attacks the enemy's mind and soul...

So what can his characteristics do?
Sanji's special feature is a battle armor that makes his body extremely tough and has no weaknesses.

The effect of this feature can only be said to be above average among all the features that Chihong has encountered so far.

It’s neither high nor low.

The little bit of defense that was enhanced is better than nothing compared to Sanji's exoskeleton.

It’s just that no one in the Straw Hat Pirates had ever gained significant combat support by relying on their characteristics, so no one really cared about it.

But now, under the pressure from Zoro, Sanji's potential...

A brand new explosion has also arrived!!!

Sanji already knew the special effects of the combat armor.

After seeing that Zoro could even cut the enemy's soul with his ultimate swordsmanship, he finally realized...

Fire is his second attribute.

And fighting is his innate ability!
But in recent times, he has relied too much on the omnipotence of fire power and has been too intoxicated by this powerful and immediate instinct.

As a result, he hasn't seriously studied anything related to fighting for a long time.

More flexible fighting techniques? More avant-garde assault methods! ?
Under the roaring flames of the powerful flying bricks, everything seemed so pale.

Compared with his use of fire energy, Sanji's use of fighting attributes can be said to be still at the most superficial stage.

Even after he was fully transformed into a Pokémon, his Fighting attribute could only serve as a foil to his Fire attribute, condensing into a fighting armor to accompany Sanji.

Plus, he has never encountered any enemies worthy of his life, so Sanji's utilization rate of the fighting attribute is not even half of his second attribute, the fire attribute!
And until just now, he finally realized the wrongness of this matter.

And under the high pressure brought by Zoro, he developed new moves!
Man of Light, Transform!!!

Swah——

Under Saint Shamrock's astonished gaze, Sanji's body suddenly burst out with a dazzling hot light, as if the sun god himself had arrived, illuminating the entire room.

With endless heat energy, the high temperature melts everything around that can be melted.

Even the walls were too dry and cracked, and began to fall off piece by piece, with dust flying everywhere.

In an instant, the entire room seemed to have spanned thousands of years of time, entering the stage of "aging" prematurely, becoming fragile and like a dilapidated building.

But all these phenomena blocked Saint Shamrock's gaze from focusing on Sanji.

Under his sight, Sanji's body began to be assimilated by the blazing light from the inside out.

Until finally, his entire body was enveloped by the dazzling light, completely merging with the blazing flames.

Just and
"This is……"

At this moment, even Zoro, who was concentrating on learning the swordsmanship, couldn't help but open one eye and looked at Sanji's current state with some surprise.

"Hu~" A hot breath came out of Sanji's mouth.

The next second, a cold smile suddenly appeared on his face, which was glowing but still had a curly eyebrow.

Looking at Saint Shamrock in the distance, he chuckled and said:

"Tianlong people, put away your inexperienced face!"

"The real surprise is yet to come!"

Swish~!

The moment the words fell, Sanji's figure suddenly disappeared, but left a straight trail of light in the air.

However, even so, a look of fear suddenly flashed in Saint Shamrock's eyes.

because of him……

I can’t even “see” Sanji!!!

Although his soul was hit by Zoro, his Observation Haki did not weaken much. Having the same blood as Shanks and eating better, he naturally also has the ability to predict the future with Observation Haki.

So even if Sanji's Speed-Speed ​​Fruit can burst out at a speed far exceeding his dynamic vision, he will still be captured by his ability to predict the future.

But now...his ability is completely ineffective against Sanji!

There are only two possibilities in this situation. One is that Sanji's observation Haki level has surpassed his.

But this is obviously not true!
Observation Haki requires more talent than Armament Haki, and it is not so easy to cultivate. How can it be surpassed just by saying so?
But the second possibility is even more outrageous!
That is, the speed that Sanji burst out at this moment has exceeded the future he can detect!
The other party possesses the ability to change the future before it arrives!!!
So even if you can predict the future, you won't be able to catch Sanji's eye.

Because at this moment, he has transcended the shackles of time.

But the speed required... is it really something that humans can do! ?

At this moment, Saint Shamrock felt like his head was about to explode!

However, before he could react, an attack that arrived at an unknown time suddenly hit his abdomen.

"Divine Light BBQ Spin Kick!!!"

Sanji, transformed into the Man of Light, reappeared, but his body came in front of Shamrock Saint in an upside-down posture, with his legs spread out at a smooth angle like the wings of a helicopter.

next moment.

rustling rustling...

The endless path of light hit Saint Shamrock's body like a bullet, causing him to show pain in an instant and suddenly spit out a large mouthful of blood.

Under countless kicks, his body flew out like a meteor and smashed into the wall behind him.

tread!
After completing the attack, Sanji fell to the ground, and a dark brown burn mark immediately appeared where his feet touched the ground.

"What Chihong said is indeed correct!"

After landing, Sanji raised the corners of his mouth slightly and laughed softly:
"The power of the Speedy Fruit is not just about speed!"

Although Sanji didn't know why he suddenly broke through Shamrock Saint's ability to predict the future, he felt that as long as he wanted to, he could do it!
Sanji didn’t know if this could be considered a breakthrough in time, but he was certain that as long as he could continue along this path, his strength would experience a qualitative leap!
And all this is thanks to his new form.

Sanji temporarily named it [Divine Light Form]!
Now, he feels that even if he encounters the gods that appear in storybooks, he can defeat them!!!

The principle of this new form is actually not much different from his original Demon Wind Kick.

The power of the combat armor makes Sanji's entire body like a piece of iron plate, with the same endurance.

If that's the case, then the heat that his feet can carry, his body, his organs, his cells...

Nature can also bear it!!!
It is also by using this principle that Sanji first releases all the fire energy in his body and transforms it into real flames.

When the flame transformed from energy meets the air of nature, it burns more vigorously and hotter, which is equivalent to carrying the power of nature. Then, under his control, it all enters his body and fills every cell in his body!!!
Due to the characteristics of the combat armor, these flames and heat energy did not cause any damage to Sanji's cells. Instead, they were retained in the cells just like the Devil's Wind Kick.

That is to say, Sanji has the current appearance of the Man of Light.

Cells that absorbed a large amount of energy naturally became stronger, allowing Sanji to achieve a new leap as a whole!

Overall, the total amount of energy in his body did not actually increase that much.

It’s just that the energy that was originally used for the fire has now all become Sanji’s physical strength!

Physical fitness, strength, speed, burst... the all-round increase not only gives Sanji more room to play with his fighting attributes, but also allows Sanji to take the development of the Speed ​​Fruit a step further!
Although it didn't seem to have changed anything, it allowed Sanji's energy to focus on fighting and the physical body, severely raising his upper limit.

"damn it!!!"

"Why...why do some weird guys keep popping up one after another!!!"

boom! ! !
Under the collapsed ruins, Saint Shamrock suddenly pushed aside a huge stone slab, crawled out from the room covered in dust and let out an incoherent roar.

He's had enough!

He's really had enough!!!

It would be fine if the enemy was Luffy, or even the vice-captain Akane!

But today, he was treated like this by two "soldiers" of the Straw Hat Pirates! ?

What a shame! What a shame!

Shamrock Saint held the sharp blade and slashed at Sanji again.

Under such tremendous force, even without the support of swordsmanship, his attack caused the air around him to explode with terrifying shock waves.

But before he could get close to Sanji, Sanji's figure suddenly flashed and appeared directly above him.

"Your struggle is no longer necessary!!!"

"Divine Light·Downward Kick!!!"

boom! ! !
A simple kick suddenly hit Saint Shamrock's head, directly deforming his entire face.

The whole person smashed towards the ground below like a meteor! ! !
The fighting attribute, downward kick, not only has a power of up to 120 points, but also has a certain probability of causing the target to fall into a state of confusion.

Saint Shamrock, who was already unconscious, was naturally hit as expected. His body seemed to be out of control and twisted inexplicably.

No matter how he struggled, he could not get up.

It was not until several seconds later that he regained control of his limbs and quickly jumped up.

But when he raised his head, he was shocked to find a turbaned three-sword swordsman standing in front of him.

"Well done, you horny cook!"

Zoro, who had re-condensed the sword intent to slay gods, smiled slightly.

Swish~!

A flash of fire appeared, and Sanji stopped steadily right behind Shamrock Saint, and attacked him together with Zoro.

Listening to Zoro's praise, he did not look overly happy.

"I let you win again~"

"But next time, I will definitely be the one taking the lead!!!"

In the divine light form, the awakening of the Speed ​​Fruit is just one step away.

Sanji believes that after today's battle, he will be able to fully comprehend the power of the awakened fruit, and his combat power will once again be comprehensively sublimated!
