"Little brat!"
Z was excited in his heart. This little brat was very strong. He was really very strong. His appearance was completely different from his age. His strength was not limited by his age. This little devil was very strong !
Whether it was Haki or physique, they were perfect without any shortcomings. Although it seemed that he had a very strong devil fruit, but he didn't rely on the power of the devil fruit. His own body was the thing that the little devil relied on the most. Although the other side was a pirate, Z still praised this point.
For an expert like Z, his own strength was the real strength. Roger, Rayleigh, Z, these experts of the last generation were all pure physical skills. For these legends on the sea, as a man who always galloped on the sea, it was really unbearable for these people to not be able to swim.
What's more, with their strength, they don't need the devil fruit to increase their strength. In fact, with the strength of these people, unless they give them a devil fruit of the same level as the shock fruit, their strength will not improve too much. After all, humans still have their limits.
Vlad didn't know what Z was thinking. If he knew, he would probably laugh with disdain. For Vlad, no matter how the form of strength was, it was just strength. If he could use his own strength, then there would be no problem. Whether it was the devil fruit, physical skills, Haki skills or other things, it didn't matter. If he could become stronger and compete with other heroes, then it didn't matter.
"Hahahaha!"
"So strong, so strong!"
"Mr. Z!"
The two men fought fiercely in the sky. Vlad, who could fly, was like a strong bird. Air combat was his home field. He was unrestrained.
Z also didn't lose his momentum. He used Moon Walk in his hand and it felt like he had returned to his original state. It was not like he was stepping on the air but he was running on the solid ground.
"Brat!"
Z's huge mechanical arm swept directly toward Vlad's head. Although the other party was the son of his beloved disciple, pirates were pirates and enemies were enemies. As a soldier, there was no need to hold back.
What's more, Z was very clear that this guy in front of him was not a man who needed him to hold back. His strength was extremely strong. After all, he was already 70 years old. His originally strong body had a broken arm and was suffering from asthma. He was afraid that he had no chance to hold back against this man.
"Woo ha!"
Vlad suddenly lowered his head and directly let go of Z's huge mechanical arm.
"Dragon Tail Whip!"
The thick right leg was instantly wrapped with solid Busoshoku Haki. It tore through the air and swept towards Z's neck.
The wind made Z's soft hair tremble, but Z didn't hesitate at all. His sight and smell were also terrible, even more than Vlad.
He clearly saw Vlad's attack.
"Humph!"
Z coldly snorted and raised his left leg. His hardened calf directly blocked Vlad's whip leg.
"Bang!"
High in the sky, a strong wind blew. The confrontation between the two men was already shocking.
The two people separated when they touched. Vlad and the huge power contained in them instantly separated the two people. Whether it was Vlad or Z, both of them could not help but retreat. After all, they were not monsters like Kaido. Their body size and strength were far beyond ordinary people.
"Hahahaha! How satisfying!"
Vlad was like a madman, he shouted crazily, he had no intention of stabilizing his body.
The huge wings on his back flapped and directly changed the momentum and rushed toward Z.
"Crazy kid!"
Z's face was calm as he calmly spat out a few words. His right leg stepped in the air at a speed that ordinary people couldn't see. It was as if he stepped on the ground. A ripple spread in the air and Z's heavy body shot out at lightning speed. He also rushed toward Vlad.
"Wahahahaha!"
"Mr. Z!"
The muscles on Vlad's right arm were bulging. The entire right arm looked thicker. Even though it was covered with thick scales, it was easy to see the blue veins on his arm bulging. It looked like small snakes, extremely horrifying.
"..."
Z didn't say a word, but his eyes looked very serious, and the heavy mechanical arm seemed to be light in his hand, and he swung back at Vlad viciously.
"Bang!"
"Crack! Crack!"
Vlad's fist directly hit Z's huge mechanical fist. Even the hard mechanical arm made of sea stone cracked. It can be seen how terrifying Vlad's attack was.
"Kid, you have some brute force!"
Z said in a mocking tone.
"You flatter me!"
Vlad showed eight white teeth and looked very polite.
"Haha!"
Z's eyes narrowed but there was a smile on his lips. Vlad instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"Crush!"
Z shouted.
Light, a strong light appeared.
"Boom!!"
A huge explosion resounded through the sky.
"Damn it!"
Vlad only had time to curse before he was engulfed by the intense explosion.
-----------------
On the ship below, the confrontation between the two groups of people continued.
"Ah! What a troublesome ability!"
Baby-5 lightly jumped and dodged a ball of red light. He said somewhat angrily. The ability of this woman in front of him was indeed as difficult to deal with as the bastard captain had said. The thing that was hit by the red light, regardless of the material, whether it was alive or not, would be forced to retreat for twelve years. It was really too much of a bug.
If it was an old man facing this woman, it would be fine. After retreating for twelve years, his strength would greatly increase. However, Miss Maid was in her prime, twenty years old. If she took one hit, wouldn't she be finished?
"Hu --" Baby-5 slowly spat out a puff of smoke. Her expression was very unfriendly. "Since she can't be hit, then she can't do anything!"
The maid lightly jumped and dodged another ball of light. The red ball of light directly hit the deck. The solid deck was instantly covered with tree bark. It was a terrifying ability.
"Ten-Finger Piercing Bullet!!"
The female servant stretched out her hands in mid-air. Her ten slender fingers were already aimed at Ain, who was on the other side. "Now, dance, idiot!"
The female servant's fingers instantly turned into ten barrels. There was no need to prepare at all. She spat out flames, and the ten barrels were like ten guns that did not need to be loaded. They continuously fired bullets.
"What?"
Now, it was Ain's turn to be confused. She really did not expect her opponent to have such outstanding fruit ability.
"Damn it!"
Ain turned over and barely managed to dodge the shot, but in just an instant, there were several more holes under her feet.
"Hey, hey, woman, don't stop!"
Baby-5's tone was very disdainful. "Dance properly!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
This was the suppression of firepower.
