Chapter 354: 2 Strokes

Boom!

Sengoku, who was standing on the deck of the Buddha-shaped boat under the many splashes of falling water, abruptly jumped forward and fell to the shore, severely damaging the pier.

This Buddha form is about twenty to thirty meters high.

An imposing giant covered in a golden glow.

Majestic and imposing.

"Admiral of the Navy..."

"Sengoku Buddha..."

Robin, surprised by the Admiral's terrifying strength and momentum, hid behind Yeruashi and spoke his name with a tremor in her voice.

Sengoku looked at Robin, who was standing behind him, then looked at Yeruashi and said coldly, "Do you know how terrible this criminal wanted by the World Government is? She was sentenced to death!"

"You haven't committed any crime in the past, so the punishment won't be too severe if you hand over the Demon Girl right now, otherwise... you'll receive the same sentence as her!"

Robin began to tremble violently after hearing Sengoku's words.

He felt a strong sense of dread, waiting for Yeruashi's reaction.

Yeruashi slowly raised his head, looking at the Buddha-like Sengoku.

Despite the large difference in height, this look gave Sengoku the feeling that he was the one being slighted.

"To your regret..."

"Robin is now my servant, and no matter what I have been accused of in the past, I will never give you to my man."

Robin felt a warmth in her heart when she heard Yeruashi's resolute reply.

Although the figure of Yeruashi, standing in front of the majestic figure of the Navy Admiral, giving a terrifying oppression, was not tall, but at this moment, Robin swallowed nervously, feeling as if this small back could reliably protect her. any wind and rain.

Eleven-year-old Robin felt a long-forgotten emotion, and in her eyes was only Yeruashi's back.

"In that case..."

"I condemn you with her!"

Sengoku said angrily, and a flash of coldness crossed his eyes, at the same time he raised his palm and pressed down on Yeruashi.

With the fall of the palm, a huge shockwave of golden light swept through the air, enveloping Yeruashi along with the entire harbor.

In the face of Sengoku's attack, Yeruashi simply raised a small white palm that didn't seem to hold much power.

Yeruashi's size was completely incomparable to the huge Buddha-shaped Sengoku.

But with a simple push of the palm, the air suddenly shuddered and a terrible invisible force shot through it, greeting Sengoku's golden shockwave.

"Shinra Tensei!"

Boom!!!

The two forces collided in midair with a terrifying roar.

A powerful shockwave, visible to the naked eye, rolled in all directions and black cracks began to appear at the epicenter of the collision, as if space had been torn apart.

Rumble!!!

The entire island shook violently under this blow, and great waves rolled across the sea, crashing against the ships in front of the dock.

Marines clung to the masts and railings, trying not to fall off their boats.

"Admiral Sengoku!!!"

"He... stopped Sengoku's shockwave..."

The marines were very surprised to see the confrontation between Yeruashi and Sengoku, and it was extremely rare for them to encounter criminals capable of resisting Sengoku's attack.

In the whole sea, only Whitebeard, Kaido Beast and some other pirates can do this.

Now.

Yeruashi simply raised his hand and stopped Sengoku's shockwave, seemingly effortlessly!

"Damn it... How far is his devil fruit ability developed?!"

Sengoku, who was pointing his palm down towards Yeruashi, was releasing more and more of his ability in an attempt to crush his opponent, but the palm seemed to collide with an extremely hard rubber ball, barely moving a few tens of centimeters and unable to move another millimeter.

In the end, the giant golden palm shook violently, and Sengoku staggered back a few steps, while a powerful shockwave rolled in all directions.

Whoosh!!!

Yeruashi's figure disappeared.

In the next instant, he appeared right in front of Sengoku, immediately slamming his fist in the direction of his head.

The surrounding air was heavily distorted, forming a huge fist print.

"So fast!"

Sengoku's eyes widened abruptly, but it was too late to strike back, he only managed to raise his left hand in an attempt to block Yeruashi's attack.

A layer of black armament enveloped the huge golden arm.

Auge!!!

With the fall of Yeruashi's strike, it rang like the sound of a bronze bell.

Sengoku's massive body lurched violently, staggering back a few steps before barely stabilizing his position.

"This power..."

Sengoku's face became extremely grim.

In Buddha form, he has extremely powerful defense, and in combination with high-level Busoshoku haki, the defense is strong enough to resist even Whitebeard's attacks, but now he could barely hold back a blow from Yeruashi, and his hand is still tingling violently!

This blow was barely weaker than Whitebeard's and Garp's blows!

"Blocked my punch? Your defense isn't bad."

Yeruashi, who was floating gently in the air, lowered his fist and looked at Sengoku in front of him with a smile.

At the moment, he hadn't activated Six Paths Mode or opened any of the Eight Gates, but even his normal punch wasn't as easy to take, as before, the force of the blow was enough to kill Akainu.

Akainu would definitely have died on the spot if it wasn't for the Logia-type Devil Fruit ability.

While Sengoku's defense was enough to firmly block his normal punch, moreover, he only retreated a few steps without receiving any injury.

Of course, there is a significant gap between the future admirals Akainu and Aokiji, who have yet to reach their peak, and Sengoku, who is at the peak of sea power.

"..."

Yeruashi's words made Sengoku gnash his teeth.

With a furious roar, he ran towards Yeruashi and threw a punch, "Don't be too arrogant, kid!!!"

Yeruashi smiled and greeted Sengoku's fist without any fear.

Two disproportionate fists collided in the air.

Boom!!!

A shockwave erupted.

Sengoku and Yeruashi stood motionless.

The big fist and the small fist blocked each other, but a terrifying momentum spread out in all directions.

On the ground, at the point of their collision, a wide crack appeared and quickly spread to the sides of the island and to the bottom of the sea, forming a deep abyss!

The consequences of this collision broke part of the island!
