Chapter 466: Phantasm Smoker Defeat

"Let's defeat him," Ben stated. "Hina, Tashigi, he is not the Smoker you know, he is a mere clone, a fake he is Phantasm Smoker," Ben added.

"I know," Tashigi responded as she held her sword out. 

"Hina knows," Hina stated. 

"One other thing, we don't need haki, to take down logias here," Ben added. He saw how Vivi's gun did damage to Phantasm Smoker. 

Phantasm Smoker charged toward the girls. Mikita dashed forward to meet him head-on. Phantasm Smoker swung his fist. "Meteor Fist!" Mikita shouted, channeling her power to dramatically increase the weight of her hand. With a powerful swing, she aimed her fist directly at his. Their fists collided with a thunderous impact, the clash generating a shockwave that reverberated through the ground, sending dust flying. The force of the collision threw Phantasm Smoker backward, but he managed to twist mid-air and land firmly on his feet, skidding to a halt. 

"White Out," Phantasm Smoker said as he shot a cloud of smoke from his arms towards Mikita. 

"Inferno Strike," Conis said as she channelled the intense heat into the tip of the javelin. She thrusted it forward, releasing a scorching blast of flames at Smoker`s attack. The flame and smoke clashed creating a small explosion. 

"White Launcher," Phantasm Smoker said as transformed himself into smoke and launched himself at Conis. He flew through the air and directly went for Conis. His fist was raised. 

Alvida ran towards Phantasm Smoker. "Kanabo Swing," Alvida said as she gripped her iron mace tightly and swung it with full force. She struck Phantasm Smoker in the face. Smoker got hit, his face turned and he went flying. He landed on the ground with a loud thud. 

Phantasm Smoker got up. There was a huge mark on his face. Then he released a puff of smoke from his body. 

"He seems a bit different," Robin noted. 

Maya held Eros Edge in her hand. "Hex`s Fire," Maya said as she scraped the sword on the ground. The friction created a black-coloured flaming projectile that she launched at Phantasm Smoker. 

Phantasm Smoker saw the attack and jumped out of the way. The girls were surprised by this. 

"He seems to be learning," Zala added. 

Phantasm Smoker raised his hand. "White Blow," he said as he shot a cloud of dense smoke from his arm towards Alvida. 

"Shave," Alvida said as she moved quickly towards the left, dodging the attack.

Vivi held up Succubane. "Neo Fire," Vivi said as she scraped the sword on the ground. The friction created a dark purple-coloured flaming projectile that she launched at Phantasm Smoker. 

Phantasm Smoker jumped out the way, just missing the attack. However, Tashigi was ready. She aimed Shichiseiken at Phantasm Smoker. "Mystic Beam," Tashigi said as the sword glowed green. A green projection was fired. Phantasm Smoker saw the attack at the last moment and got. He slid backwards. 

Zala started to transform her body elongated, muscles rippled. Her skin darkened and hardened into rough, scaly armour. Her arms shrank slightly and had sharp claws. Her legs bulked up. Her feet had large claws. Her head morphed, stretching into a long, ferocious snout filled with razor-sharp teeth. She jumped into the air and slammed down onto Phantasm Smoker. There was a large thud. Phantasm Smoker eyes widened. 

Hina and Tashigi looked surprised. They thought did she not have a different devil fruit. 

Phantasm Smoker raised his hand. "White Blow," he said as he shot a cloud of dense smoke from his arm towards Zala`s Carnotaurus form. The smoke lifted Zala up towards the air slowly. 

"No you don't," Saphir said as she leapt into battle. "Bleu Vortex Drill," Saphir added as she gripped her spear tightly and twisted her body, driving the spear forward in a spiralling motion at Phantasm Smoker`s hand. She stabbed his hand and pierced it. The smoke dispersed and Zala landed on her large feet. 

Phantasm Smoker got his hand back. He looked at Marianne. "White Launcher," Phantasm Smoker said as transformed himself into smoke and launched himself. He went towards Marianne. He got closer and was about to swing his fist at her head. 

Marianne pulled up the Impact Dial and absorbed the attack. She smiled. "Impact Dial," Marianne said as the force of the punch and other attacks were sent out as a shockwave. Phantasm Smoker got hit by the attack and went flying back. The shockwave sent a vibration across his body. 

"Good job Marianne," Ben said. Kaya transformed into her beast form. Ben looked at Kaya and thought his beast form was different. "Angel HyperBeam," Kaya said as she opened her mouth and shot a golden beam at Phantasm Smoker who was still in mid-air. There was an explosion and a large smoke cloud. Phantasm Smoker was tossed onto the ground. He slid back on his back. 

Phantasm Smoker got up once again. His body was shaking. "Storm Leg," Kalifa said as she kicked at high speed and strength which launched a sharp compressed blade of wind at Phantasm Smoker. 

Phantasm Smoker saw it at the last minute and got hit with the attack. He was lifted from his feet by the attack and was thrown like a rag doll backwards.

"He can take a few hits," Mikita remarked. 

"They are stronger but weaker than their real life counterparts," Robin noted. 

"White Snake," Smoker said as he launched a long snake of dense smoke from his hand. The snake tried to reach Zala once again. 

"Liquid Serpent!" Honey declared as she raised her hands, a swirling mass of red liquid. The liquid began to coil and twist, taking on the shape of a massive, sinuous serpent. Its scales glistened like molten metal, its eyes glowing with an ominous light. With a flick of her wrist, Honey sent the liquid serpent hurtling towards Phantasm Smoker`s snake. The serpent slithered through the air with incredible speed and clashed with Phantasm Smoker`s snake and exploded.

Smoker once again was thrown back and hit the pillar where the orb was. Ben thought it was time to end this. He could feel he was on his last breath. He formed a spear-shaped projection of dark energy. "Demon Abyssal Lance," Ben said as he hurled it at high speed towards Phantasm Smoker. The lance struck him in the chest. His mouth opened wide. His eyes widened. 

Phantasm Smoker let out a groan and suddenly levitated from the ground. His body spun around and turned into light and went back into the orb. 

"He is gone," Marianne remarked. 

The orb started to shake as it also levitated and turned into a light and went towards the orb Vivi had. The momentum which held the orb started to throw various aprons.
