Chapter 44: Card Draw!

Boom!

Stones scattered across the streets of the royal city, and dust filled the air.

In the deep pit on the ground, Rorschach's mouth was bleeding as he tried to get up.

But from behind, a great force was pressing him down firmly.

Jones' thick, long neck, like a giant python, was pressing on his back.

Sharp fangs appeared outside Jones' mouth, rotating and cutting towards Rorschach's back!

"Why can the teeth rotate too? Is this really a normal animal type?"

Although Rorschach used the Iron Body technique, he had only mastered it at a basic level, so its hardness wasn't high enough.

With Jones' high-speed rotating teeth, Rorschach let out a muffled sound as his flesh was torn apart.

"Life Return!"

A massive amount of energy surged out from within him, causing his body to swell instantly.

Tendons wrapped around like pythons, pumping endless strength.

Boom!

The ground shattered beneath him as Rorschach flipped his body, spreading the fingers of his left hand to grab the edge of Jones' mouth, forcibly stopping the rotation of the teeth.

Despite his hand being shredded by the sharp teeth, Rorschach did not let go.

With his right hand, whose muscles were bulging and veins protruding, he threw a powerful punch into Jones' mouth.

Boom!

The huge fist, like it was forged from steel, broke the giant teeth in Jones' mouth.

Wherever the fist passed, flesh burst apart.

"Roar!"

Jones screamed in pain, shaking his long neck, trying to throw Rorschach off.

Rorschach's body was lifted into the air, seemingly about to be thrown down again.

However.

Boom!

His feet shattered the rock beneath them, sinking into the ground.

Grabbing the fierce mouth in front of him with both hands, he shouted loudly, lifting the over ten-meter-long giant worm along with Jones' unchanged body into the air.

"ROOM!"

A transparent dome appeared, and Law, holding a long sword, flashed into the air, striking towards Jones' heart.

"Useless! Your weapon can't break through my Haki defense! Mihahaha!"

Jones' long neck contracted, turning into a human head, laughing loudly as Law's sword hit his heart.

A layer of light black Haki reappeared on his exposed chest.

But Law didn't stop, arcs of electricity flickered on the long sword in his hand.

"Heart Shock!"

Zap!

Electric arcs hit Jones' heart, causing the smile on his face to freeze, as a sharp pain surged from his heart, making his vision go black and he fell down.

Seeing this opportunity, Rorschach, who was about to end the Life Return state, quickly moved.

With rapid steps, Rorschach lunged towards Jones, transforming his right hand from a fist into a pointed finger, piercing towards Jones' single eye!

Psh!

This time, Jones' eye didn't turn into a fierce mouth.

Rorschach's index finger straight through, bursting his single eye.

"Ah!!"

The piercing pain brought Jones out of his dizziness instantly.

He covered his blinded eye with his hand, letting out a piercing scream.

"Good job, Rorschach!"

Law, his face pale from exhaustion, landed from the air, blood still at the corner of his mouth, looking towards Rorschach.

"Watch out!"

Rorschach shouted.

"Die, all of you little brats!"

Jones, releasing his hand covering his face, revealed a bloody eye socket, his body swelling rapidly like Drake.

In an instant, he transformed from a four-meter-tall humanoid into a twenty-meter-long giant white insect, filling the entire street!

The giant insect opened its mouth full of fangs, descending towards Law.

Boom!

The ground beneath Rorschach's feet shattered, and he launched himself like a wild beast, slamming into the giant insect, lifting it high and smashing it into the nearby houses.

On the adjacent street.

"Hehe, your companions seem to be in trouble, Jones has started moving."

Cis chuckled evilly, wielding dual swords, pushing Hawkins back step by step.

Deep wounds already covered Hawkins' body, staining his long robe with blood.

His sword seemed ordinary, already chipped from Cis' dual blades.

Hawkins retreated step by step, leaving shallow pits in the hard ground.

"For a swordsman, if their breathing is disrupted, it means..."

"You're dead!"

Cis grinned evilly, suddenly slashing towards Hawkins' abdomen with his left sword.

Before the sharp slash fully reached Hawkins, it tore his clothes, leaving a bloody wound.

Hawkins raised his sword again to block the strike.

However, Cis was a dual-sword style swordsman.

While slashing with his left sword, his right sword didn't stop.

A sharp whistling sound as Cis threw his right sword!

Psh!

The sword shot out like an arrow, passing through the gap under Hawkins' left armpit.

Hawkins' underarm clothes tore, his skin and muscles were cut, blood gushing out.

The intense pain caused his body to tremble instinctively, weakening his grip on his sword.

Cis grinned with success, lowering his body, rolling quickly towards Hawkins' legs, slashing horizontally with his broadsword.

Hawkins, enduring the excruciating pain, gripped his sword with both hands, planting it into the ground in front of him to block Cis' blade.

Crash!

With a crisp metallic sound, Hawkins' sword broke.

The broken tip of the sword flew high, reflecting Cis' triumphant smile.

Hawkins' forehead beaded with cold sweat, not from fear, but a natural bodily reaction.

The intense pain under his armpit had significantly weakened his combat ability.

Seeing Cis' wild smile, Hawkins suddenly released his grip on the broken sword, grabbing the flying sword tip.

The sword blade was extremely sharp, instantly cutting his fingers and causing blood to flow.

But Hawkins was unfazed, using the momentum to throw the sword tip at Cis.

Cis' pupils contracted, trying to roll to the side, but Hawkins' left foot blocked his instinctive roll to the left!

In a split second delay, the broken sword tip pierced Cis' shoulder deeply, making him scream in pain.

"Bastard! You'll die!"

Cis' eyes turned blood-red.

He didn't pull out the sword tip in his shoulder, gripping his long sword tightly, slashing towards the exhausted Hawkins.

Seeing the sharp blade coming, Hawkins showed no fear, raising his right hand.

Between his index and middle fingers, there was a tarot card.

The tarot card showed -

Justice!

"ROOM! Command Stick!"

As the transparent dome fell, a violent figure charged forward, opening its steel-like chest to face the incoming blade!
