One Piece: Fist of the World-Chapter 44: Law’s Battle

The Brawl Continues

"Big Sister Nia, let me help you!" Seeing that Nia was giving her all but couldn't even touch her opponent, Bepo jumped out, ready to offer support.

"No, no, no, that's not necessary!" Penguin grabbed Bepo.

"Why? Big Sister Nia is no match for the other party. Why don't you two attack together?" Bepo grasped Penguin and Shachi, preparing to drag them into the fray to support Nia.

"Idiot! Can't you see that?!" Penguin shook off Bepo's bear paw and couldn't help but scold him. "He is basically teaching her on the spot!"

"Ah? Is that so?" Bepo scratched his head, looking at the two fighting. Although Nia was clearly at a disadvantage and couldn't hurt her opponent, the opponent wasn't resorting to any truly ruthless attacks.

"Of course! They are siblings!" freёnovelkiss.com

"Eh? Are they brother and sister? The bear didn't even notice."

"Don't you realize that they look very similar? Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they are from the same family!"

"I'm sorry..." Bepo lowered his head.

"Don't apologize at a time like this!" Penguin patted Bepo's back hard. "Just leave this to them. Shachi and I will go check on Captain Rhodes and his men. Bepo, keep an eye on Law."

"Law is in trouble! He was trained too hard by the captain before, and he's covered in wounds!" Seeing Law in danger under the opponent's attack, Bepo was horrified. "I'll help you! Law-zai!"

"What the hell is Law-zai..." After a final complaint and a glance at the two battlefields, Penguin and Shachi quickly ran towards the northern area of Tiger Shark Island.

"It seems a bit too much..." Without paying attention to Penguin and Shachi leaving, Neo glanced at his father, Gula, who was fighting Law not far away, and muttered. "I hope no one noticed this."

While dodging Nia's attacks with ease, Neo reflected on his childhood. He had always adored his sister. In Neo's memory, his sister was curious about everything and very brave. She would always take him for walks and find all kinds of fun and delicious things. Likewise, she was a rebellious person who would never obey their father's orders and would always get into all sorts of trouble.

But such a childhood had been very happy!

However, as they grew up and began to receive family education, the smile on his sister's face became less frequent. She quarreled with their father more than once, until she finally left home quietly.

After that, he took over his sister's duties and all aspects of the family affairs. He also came to understand the reasons why his sister and father had been arguing. However, he did not possess the courage to leave the family at all costs like his sister. So, he could only follow his father's arrangements and delve into the bottomless darkness.

However, it was also because of this that he gained the power to protect his sister. If she truly didn't want to return to their family, she should at least improve her strength, because this sea was full of dangers.

I just don't know how much you can learn. Neo muttered to himself as he avoided Nia's attack again.

"Your ability is very special!" Gula clenched his fists, looking at Law. The Surgeon of Death, Trafalgar Law, user of the Ope Ope no Mi! As someone who once headed the Military Intelligence Department of the Dawson Kingdom, he naturally had intelligence on the Rhode Pirates, where Nia was involved.

The Ope Ope no Mi had caused a huge stir in the North Blue that year, involving many forces. However, after their fight and his observations, he had confirmed that this young man had not yet mastered Haki.

Then, there was nothing to be afraid of! No matter how special his abilities were, without the blessing of Haki, he was nothing to be feared.

"It seems that you have rejected my kindness, little pirate! However, the outcome won't change. Nia will come home with me. And you, you have no chance to continue sailing. If you're lucky, you may regret your choice in Impel Down!"

"It sounds like you have a lot of prejudice against pirates!" Law spoke up, seizing this opportunity to try and squeeze out all his remaining physical strength, attempting to activate his abilities more times.

However, I will not be able to maintain such high-intensity training in the future. If I encounter any unexpected situation again, I will not be able to enter combat status immediately.

"This is not prejudice, it's the truth!" Gula didn't seem to be in a hurry either. In his opinion, as long as Vice Admiral Onigumo could eliminate the rest of the members of Rhodes's Pirates on the island, the remaining few people wouldn't be a threat at all. It would be better if they could avoid fighting and wait until Vice Admiral Onigumo arrived.

It would be very troublesome to deal with the kid opposite him if he only relied on his abilities. He also couldn't defeat the opponent in a short time.

"So-called pirates are nothing but the scum of the sea. Whether they go out to sea with ambition or out of necessity, they are all low-class individuals."

"Even the so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea are just taking shelter under the World Government."

"And our Ernest family has served the World Government for generations, and we enjoy a higher reputation within the World Government than the royal family of the Dawson Kingdom."

"Oh? Is that why you're so arrogant?" Looking at the arrogance on Gula's face, Law's face showed a slight sneer. "But you so-called people in power always maintain a high and mighty attitude, claiming to be gods looking down on the world."

Law thought of his hometown, the white town of Flevance. It was because of the greed of the so-called nobles and royal family, who disregarded the lives of the people, that the tragedy happened. However, the so-called World Government and Navy turned a blind eye to this situation.

There were countless towns like Flevance in every corner of the world, and countless people like him. And thousands upon thousands of people like him would gather together sooner or later and burst out with a force strong enough to overturn the world!

Moreover, there were people like Rhodes!

"But they don't know that even the gods flying in the sky can be pulled down by people walking on the earth!"

Hearing what Law said, Gula's face changed slightly, then he returned to normal and sneered. "Just you guys?"

"You'll know if you try it!"

A blue halo instantly enveloped the entire venue.

"ROOM! Tact!"

A huge barbell placed on the deck for exercise flew up under Law's ability and slammed towards Gula.

"You can't hit me with that slow move!"

Soru!

Gula's feet shook, and he instantly appeared in front of Law, raising his right leg high to prepare for a kick, but the flying barbell fell behind him.

Swoosh—

Just as Gula was about to attack, Law in front of him suddenly disappeared, replaced by the barbell that had flown over before. Law's body appeared behind Gula, his Kikoku aimed at Gula's back.

"Too slow!"

With a loud shout, Gula not only didn't stop his attack, but instead accelerated it. He kicked directly at the barbell in front of him, hooked the barbell with his instep at the moment of contact, and then used his left foot as a fulcrum. His whole body instantly flipped over and swung the barbell towards Law.

What a strange move!

Faced with Gula's response, Law felt a little headache, and immediately changed the move he was preparing to launch. He swung the sword in his hand horizontally and cut the oncoming barbell.

However, this also gave Gula a chance to attack again. The opponent got close to Law again and hit him with a heavy elbow. There was even a layer of Haki wrapped around his elbow.

"Aaaaaa——"

With a strange cry, Bepo fell from the sky and kicked Gula, sending him flying.

"Where did this bear come from?" Gula patted the large footprints on his body and looked at Bepo, who had suddenly appeared.

"I'm a white bear!" Bepo was furious then assumed a fighting stance once again.
