"Die, pirates!"
Neferpitou looked like a beautiful, mature woman, but Doberman was obviously not distracted by her appearance.
On the contrary, his killing intent was fierce.
The moment he saw Neferpitou's attack, Doberman roared and swung his sword violently.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The cat's claws repeatedly collided with the blade.
Although Neferpitou was at a disadvantage during several of their exchanges, that clearly did not make her retreat.
She firmly held Doberman back and continued engaging him in a fierce battle.
BOOM!!!
A blade collided violently with a massive spiked club.
Amid the deafening roar and rolling shockwaves, Momonga's expression changed.
The enormous force transmitted through his blade sent him flying backward.
"Hellsplitter: Storm!"
Although Mangu had been injured when he intercepted Kuzan's Ice Block: Pheasant Beak earlier, those injuries obviously hadn't weakened him enough to affect his fighting ability.
Just like Neferpitou, Mangu, one of the Four Uranus, had stepped forward without hesitation to face a Marine Vice Admiral.
After forcefully knocking Momonga backward, Mangu didn't stop.
Hot air blasted from his nostrils as he swung his vicious spiked club wildly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The massive club transformed into a series of afterimages, tearing through the surrounding air with terrifying force.
Momonga's pupils contracted.
He hurriedly raised his sword to block.
The blade and spiked club collided violently once again.
Another series of deafening roars and shockwaves erupted as Mangu and Momonga quickly became locked in fierce combat.
"Six Powers: Soru!"
"Six Powers: Shigan!"
Dalmatian had transformed into his human-beast form through the powers of the Dog-Dog Fruit and had also encountered a powerful opponent who intercepted him.
His figure shot forward.
His index finger, wrapped in Armament Haki, stabbed forward with tremendous force.
The person standing in Dalmatian's path was Law, one of the Four Uranus.
Ding!
Sparks flew from the collision.
Dalmatian's attack was extremely powerful, but Law's Observation Haki was clearly not weak either.
Facing the sharp Shigan, Law quickly swung Kikoku.
The blade slashed forward with precise timing.
The hardened index finger collided violently with the blade.
A powerful wave of force spread outward, forming a visible shockwave that swept across the surrounding area.
Suddenly, Law's expression changed slightly.
He was unable to match the strength behind Dalmatian's Shigan.
His body was immediately sent flying backward.
It was obvious that Law was at a disadvantage when it came to raw physical strength.
"ROOM: Amputate!"
After sending Law flying, Dalmatian aggressively pursued him.
However, just as Dalmatian charged forward, a spherical energy field rapidly expanded from Law's body as he flew backward.
As the field expanded, it quickly enveloped the pursuing Dalmatian.
Law stabilized himself and landed on the ground.
Without hesitation, he swung his sword toward Dalmatian.
An invisible slash flew through the air.
To the naked eye, the invisible slash created by the Op-Op Fruit was naturally extremely difficult to detect.
But Dalmatian's mastery of Observation Haki was also quite impressive.
Danger!
Dalmatian's Observation Haki immediately sensed the incoming invisible slash.
His pupils contracted.
He instantly leaped into the air, narrowly avoiding the attack.
As expected of a Marine Vice Admiral. Both his Armament Haki and Observation Haki are extremely powerful.
The slash missed.
A solemn expression appeared on Law's face.
"Six Powers: Rankyaku!"
Dalmatian, who had jumped into the air, looked toward Law.
He didn't stop.
Instead, he violently kicked with his right leg.
A huge crescent-shaped vacuum slash erupted from his foot and tore through the air toward Law.
Facing the incoming Rankyaku, Law narrowed his eyes slightly.
He immediately activated the power of the Op-Op Fruit, intending to switch positions with Dalmatian and redirect the incoming vacuum slash toward its original attacker.
Turn the attack back on its owner.
However, Dalmatian was extremely vigilant.
The moment he noticed the strange force beginning to act on his body, he immediately activated Armament Haki and wrapped it around himself.
His powerful Armament Haki surpassed the extent to which Law had developed his Op-Op Fruit's ability.
As a result, Law's spatial transfer failed to affect Dalmatian.
Having no other choice, Law shifted his transfer target to a piece of broken ice nearby.
Swish!
The transfer was completed instantly.
Law disappeared from his original position.
The incoming vacuum slash merely destroyed the piece of ice that had taken his place.
Law maintained his ROOM and swung Kikoku again.
However, his target wasn't Dalmatian.
Instead, he slashed toward the glacier beside him.
"ROOM: Baton!"
The invisible slash cut a massive square section from the glacier.
In the next instant, an iceberg roughly the size of a warship rose from the frozen sea.
Law sent it crashing toward Dalmatian.
"Six Powers: Tekkai!"
Dalmatian had only just landed when he saw the massive iceberg descending toward him.
His expression changed.
He quickly crossed his arms in front of his body and activated Tekkai to defend himself.
BOOM!!!
The violent impact produced a deafening roar.
The iceberg crashed down onto Dalmatian's arms.
The tremendous force caused his feet to drag across the glacier as he was pushed backward.
He continued sliding for nearly a hundred meters before finally stopping.
At the same time, Dalmatian pulled back his leg.
His right leg was wrapped in Armament Haki.
He swung it violently.
BOOM!
The kick shattered the iceberg into countless pieces.
Swish!
Law immediately shifted his position again.
Among the scattered fragments of the shattered iceberg, one piece of ice suddenly disappeared.
Law transferred himself to its location.
"High-Frequency Scalpel!"
High-frequency electricity wrapped around the blade of Kikoku.
Law charged forward and slashed at Dalmatian with terrifying sharpness.
"Six Powers: Kami-e!"
Dalmatian's reflexes were extremely quick.
He didn't blindly rely on Tekkai's defensive power.
The moment his Observation Haki sensed the danger contained within Law's slash, he decisively chose to evade.
The blade cut through empty air.
Although High-Frequency Scalpel was exceptionally sharp, there was nothing it could do if it failed to hit its target.
After successfully dodging the slash, Dalmatian immediately counterattacked.
"Shigan!"
His index finger shot fiercely toward Law's head.
Law's Observation Haki immediately detected the counterattack.
He shifted his position once again.
Dalmatian's Shigan merely shattered another piece of broken ice that Law had transferred into his path.
With these strange attacks and his ability to constantly switch positions, this battle will probably turn into a prolonged fight.
After destroying the ice, Dalmatian immediately looked toward Law, who had appeared farther away.
His expression remained solemn.
Then, without hesitation, he launched another attack.
He's a Marine Vice Admiral. If I can't even defeat the opponent standing in front of me, how am I supposed to defeat the others?
Law's Observation Haki once again detected Dalmatian's incoming attack.
Although his expression remained serious, a powerful fighting spirit burned within him.
He had no intention of showing the slightest weakness.
Law immediately confronted Dalmatian head-on once again.
