BXBX NOVEL Chapter 38 - Demon Bear Ridge
Glave observed Blaize and Gion. He can see Blaize is strong and possess devil fruit power but what startled him is, the other one is also equally strong.
\'When did the DemonBear Pirates provoke such scary youths? Are they Captain\'s enemy?\' Glave couldn\'t make a head or tail.
The Pirate who carried a Den Den Mushi noiselessly trod to Glave\'s side and dialed his Captain.
Blaize noticed this little action but he didn\'t care. Ignoring Glave and another three Demonbear pirates who came out of their ship, he calmly walked towards the net which held Shyarly.
When Shyarly noticed Blaize is walking towards her, she cringed a little and gazed at him in fear.
Blaize smiled a little and comforted, "Don\'t be afraid, I will release the net."
Saying this, he bent down and touched the net. His heat ability directly melted the metallic net, freeing shyarly.
As soon as she was freed from the net, Shyarly without even thanking Blaize fled from the area and slipped into the dilapidated wooden house in the distance, disappearing from his view.
Chuckling, Blaize then freed the other slaves who all fled in different directions.
During the whole process, Glave just stood in his spot without interfering while his eyes followed Blaize\'s every move in vigilance.
A stifling silence ensued the whole area while the fleeing Fishmen and Merfolk became spectators.
Freeing the slaves, Blaize turned towards Glave and said, "Well... let\'s get down to business, shall we? Entertain me till your Captain arrive!"
As soon as Glave heard the words, he instinctively gripped the hatchets in his hands. His eyes were on full alert as that of a wild animal, ready to pounce.
Blaize clenched his fist while reddish-orange flames formed around them. Standing in the same spot, he punched Glave who was some distance away from him.
As soon as he punched, a dense column of fire erupted from his fist and blazed towards Glave. His move isn\'t as flashy or as big as Ace\'s Fire Fist but it\'s enough to shock the onlookers.
As the target of the attack, Glave quickly whirled his body in fast motion creating a mini-tornado around him. With his body in spin, he utilized his slash-slash fruit ability.
His hatchets flung multiples slashes at the incoming fist of fire. His slashes were sharp and powerful but they were easily devoured by the fire.
"Ahhh!" Failing to stop the momentum of the attack, Glave screamed and projected his entire strength into his arms.
With both his arms bulged a little, he positioned them in a spot such that both his hatchets graze against each other.
\'Frictional crescent!\'
A ferocious, half-moon-shaped wind hurled towards the fire and cleanly sliced them into two sections. Finally, Blaize\'s Fire Fist was cut off and scattered across the area.
Glave gasped for breath, there wasn\'t an ounce of accomplishment in his heart for stopping such an overpowering attack. There was a sense of defeat in his heart.
Just to stop a casual attack from his opponent, he was forced to utilize his entire strength. If the attack was a little bit more powerful, he would have been injured.
His deep blue eyes looked at Blaize with a heavy expression. \'Too strong! How can he be this powerful at such young age?\'
Ignoring Glave\'s heavy expression, Blaize focused his eyes on his fist. \'Weak! My attack is nowhere near Ace\'s Hiken, is it because my devil fruit attribute is too low?\'
Gion stood still in her spot with her mouth wide open. Blaize\'s fire-based strike astonished her. Sprinting next to him, she asked in a doubtful voice, "Blaize-kun isn\'t your devil fruit abilities related to heat? How can you use flames?"
"It\'s not flame. What you saw is the next level of heat manipulation, once the temperature of heat reaches a certain degree it will look like a flame." Blaize answered with a smile.
"is it?" Gion gave him a dubious look. Don\'t know why she couldn\'t believe his words.
Before she could refute his words, they both sensed something powerful with violent breath heading towards them from the distance at breakneck speed.
Blaize\'s expression turned grave, "Gion, you care of Glave and the minions. I don\'t think it will be an easy fight."
Without a doubt, the person who\'s coming is DemonBear pirates captain Ridge. It\'s just his breath is a lot stronger than Blaize expected. Even so, there wasn\'t a trace of fear in his face but only exhilaration.
Drawing her sword, Gion braced herself for the battle. "Be careful!" Uttering these words, she went to face Glave.
In the time of heartbeat, a huge figure appeared before them. The spectating Fishmen and merfolks in the vicinity were terrified by Ridge\'s scary breath and backed away unconsciously.
With a gloomy face, Ridge looked around and saw nearly exhausted Glave. He also noticed the injured and dead pirates.
His voice thundered through the whole region, "Who is it?"
"It\'s me! What took you so long to arrive here, Captain Ridge? I got tired of waiting!" Blaize cracked his knuckles with an excited face.
"You?" Ridge scrutinized Blaize.
With a bounty of 150 Million, Ridge is definitely a terrifying foe having eaten Zoan type devil fruit and possessing explosive strength.
As for Blaize, he wasn\'t sure of his current strength. After his attributes broke through the \'20\' bar limit, he hadn\'t fought a worthy opponent yet.
Ridge is the perfect opponent to gauge his current strength. A strong fighting intent burst out of him, confronting Ridge.
Facing Blaize\'s vigorous fighting intent, Ridge chuckled, "A brat who\'s wet behind the ears wants to pick a fight with me, pretty brave for a youth!"
Ridge\'s leg bulged a little, the ground below him cracked like spider webs. The next moment, his figure shot at Blaize at blinding speed.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived before Blaize and roared in anger, "But, who gave you the courage, huh?", while his Fist targeted the latter\'s face.
The punch prompted a booming noise as it was aggressive and carried overwhelming strength. Anyone below 100 million bounties would be pulverized to meat paste if they confront it head-on.
But Blaize calmly responded to the strike by throwing a punch of his own, utilizing his entire strength and \'Tekkai\' skill.
"Bang!"
Both their fists collied against each other in mid-air producing a deafening sound while shockwave spread in all directions sweeping everything within few meters.
