Woosh!
The slave trader felt a gust of wind passing by his ears, and then the kanabo smashed onto his head. At that moment, he understood that Yamato’s kanabo wasn’t an inflatable toy; it was real.
The immense force traveled through his skull straight into his brain. In an instant, his vision darkened, and he staggered for a few steps before falling to the ground with his eyes rolled to the back.
Currently, Yamato’s Thunder Bagua was only the form and not essence. Although her swing was no different from Kaido’s Thunder Bagua, the core of Thunder Bagua was its fusion with Haki.
Only by coating it with Armament Haki or Conqueror’s Haki can Thunder Bagua’s true power be unleashed. However, Yamato, who was still honing her body and skills, hadn’t mastered Haki yet, so her Thunder Bagua was just a simple swing.
However even without Haki, she has become proficient in the swinging technique, which is why Kaido has to use two fingers.
The milk from Miltank and the eggs from Chansey has provided her with ample nourishment. Prolonged training, combined with inheriting Kaido’s bloodline, bestowed upon her strength far beyond that of an ordinary person.
During the training in the Stone Sentinel Maze, even the stone figures casually created by Arceus would be damaged by Yamato’s attacks, not to mention a flesh-and-blood person.
“Don’t mock my Takeru No. 4!”
Having knocked him down with one strike, Yamato stood proudly before him. She repeated her declaration, but he couldn’t hear anymore. That blow was too much for him, and the foam at the corners of his mouth indicated that his brainstem had suffered a severe blow.
Not everyone hit by kanabo is called Kin’emon; he didn’t have that high resistance.
“Poof!”
The sound of a bubble bursting resonated throughout the nearby area. After Yamato’s strike, the scene fell into a quiet stillness. The slave traders gazed at Yamato with complete bewilderment, momentarily frozen in their tracks.
“Attack! Catch that little brat! She can be sold for a fortune, enough for all of us to live a carefree life!”
Beautiful young girls could fetch high prices, and there is a huge market for powerful people in the auction. But when these two qualities were combined, the price could multiply by several times, which is also why slave traders take the risk of capturing people from the Kuja Pirates’ ship.
In the first half of the Grand Line, Kujas were synonymous with powerful female warriors, and women marked with the Kuja tribe’s symbol fetched even higher prices.
Wealth entices the heart, and tempted by the bounty, the group of slave traders rushed forward. Meanwhile, Yamato also began searching for her next target.
There were many slave traders, and their target was not just Yamato alone. Yamato’s display of strength led five or six people to charge at her, while the others attacked Maria and the rest.
As the people charged towards Tesoro, he threw the lime from his pocket, temporarily blinding some of them, and then pulled out a dagger to attack.
He had promised Stella that he would not turn evil, but this was self-defense. In this world, there was no such thing as excessive force when defending oneself. If he didn’t attack these slave traders with enough ruthlessness, he would suffer even more tragically.
Three years of labor had forged his body into a powerful physique, but he was still just one person. Although he managed to stab one person, his dagger was knocked away, and he ended up in a scuffle with others.
On Jack’s side, it was also a chaotic fight. Most people subconsciously believe that male are far superior to females in strength. Yamato’s performance made them wary, so a lot of them targeted the robust and burly Jack.
A rope snared Jack, but the slave trader holding it suddenly felt a tremendous force. The strength coming from Jack’s body far exceeded his expectations.
Fish-Man’s physique has an innate advantage when facing an opponent of this level. Jack easily broke free from the rope using brute-force and then charged towards his opponent with his blade.
“I’m going to be Boss Kaido’s right-hand man. Who do you think you are?”
Observing the three or four individuals closing in, Jack made his decision. He hurled his blade at one of them and used the opportunity when they dodged to charge past the group.
They were already at the edge of the mangrove tree, with turbulent seawater below. Jack charged towards one of them, his immense brute strength causing those around him who were trying to hold onto him to be pulled into the water as well.
“Splash!”
Several splashes erupted from the sea surface as Jack arrived in his domain. Being a Fish-Man, his abilities were greatly amplified in the water compared to on land.
However, the slave traders were unaware of this. The sea at night was extremely cold, and as they attempted to locate Jack, he seized their ankles, pulling them into the depths of the sea.
He might be reckless, but not foolish. Dealing with so many people on land was challenging, but underwater, it was a breeze.
Robin and Maria weren’t worried about Jack; they knew he was a Fish-Man.
The slave traders weren’t concerned about their companions either. Unaware that Jack was a Fish-Man, they believed a mere brat diving in was a death wish.
Struggling intensified their oxygen consumption, while the frigid currents incessantly sapped away their body heat. When they could no longer hold their breath and began to choke on water, Jack saw his opportunity.
Although one slave trader remained above the water surface, his human vision couldn’t see clearly and due to the overhead lights reflecting off the water’s surface, it turned him into a blind person.
So, by the time he spotted two floating comrades and attempted to climb up, it was too late. Jack burst out from the water, gripped his neck and forced him downward.
Meanwhile, on land, Tesoro ironically became the weakest link. He engaged in a back-and-forth brawl with a slave trader. Several others charged at Maria. Initially she could still handle them, but as their numbers grew, she struggled to hold them off.
Unlike Yamato’s abnormal physique or Jack’s Fish-Man talent, she didn’t possess such advantages.
“You ba*tards. It’s your fault for forcing me to use this ugly form!”
Maria’s body started to transform. Six arms emerged from her back, and a spider’s abdomen appeared on her body. However, unlike before, her spider’s fur had turned yellow.
During their journey, Arceus had transformed her spider from Rosamygale Grauvogeli to Galvantula.
“Zzt, zzt…”
The sound of electricity crackled in the air, followed by several strands of spider fur shooting out from Maria’s body.
This was Galvantula’s ability. Besides its own spider web, its fur was also a powerful weapon. The fur shot out from its abdomen like flying needles, and they carried powerful electricity.
Normal people would be paralyzed if struck by this fur, and their mouths would twitch before a yellow spider web was spat out.
Galvantula’s silk was electrically charged, making it useful for both defense, setting traps and launching attacks.
If it weren’t for the fact that her spider form was not suitable for combat in this environment, she would have preferred not to use this form.
