Chapter 133 - King And Jack
The sudden attack of Blaize caught both King and Jack off guard as their expression's suddenly changed feeling the intensity of the flames. If they let the flames hit them, it would definitely torch their ship and blow them to bits.
Without wasting time, King transformed into his Pteranodon form and shouted, "Jack!"
"Yes, big bro" Jack transformed into full mammoth form. He then sucked the water from the sea using his trunk and sprayed them at the incoming raging flames with explosive force.
Though it couldn't stop Blaize's attack, they reduced the intensity of the flames as there was no haki imbued in it.
At the same time, King leaped from the ship, flew towards the flames, and flapping his wings vigorously creating a strong wind current that divided the flames into two.
Thanks to that, Blaize's flame breath avoided burning the ship.
King, who was now in his Pteranodon form, clad in flames shot at the Marine ship at extreme speed. There was a sonic boom as he streaked forward..
Seeing King's figure approaching their ship, Regis commanded the soldiers onboard. "Fire!"
The Marine soldiers who were waiting for the order took aim and fired the bullets and cannons but nothing hit him as King evaded everything with ease.
Blaize knew this kind of attack won't hurt the latter so he smirked and jumped from the deck, faced King's dive head-on. He knew, in the pteranodon form King's beak is long and sturdy, and an effective pointed weapon capable of tearing anything in its way.
The combination of great speed, strength, and size bestowed by the Pteranodon transformation gave him the power to force destroy things. If he let King headfirst into the ship, it would break into two.
"Come!" Blaize channeled a huge amount of haki, pushed all his physical strength to his arms, and punched forward.
"Boom!" His punch clashed against the pointed beak of King's creating lightning ripples and shockwaves that swept past in all directions.
But that's not the end, as soon Blaize's punch made contact, it triggered a terrifying explosion. Golden flames burst forward and swallowed King completely.
In the next moment, King's figure shot back like a cannonball and crashed into the Beast Pirate's ship while his entire body emitted steam. Blood trickled from his pointy beaks.
"Big Bro" Jack came to his side, transformed into his human form but was shoved aside by King, who stood up and faced Blaize who already landed on their ship.
King's body also slowly transformed back to his human form.
Looking at his condition, Blaize was surprised that King was only slightly injured even though he was in the eye of the explosion.
'His reaction is fast, he was able to clad his entire body right before the explosion went off. Besides, his Lunarian bloodline isn't for a show as he's somewhat immune to heat.' Blaize mused.
There was silence and the atmosphere was extremely tense as all the Beast pirates onboard pointed their weapons at Blaize, ready to attack at moment's notice.
At the same moment, Blaize's marine ship collided with the beast pirate's ship while the Soldiers on board aimed their rifles at the beast pirates. Regis and Rosinante stood at the front while Kuina stood behind them.
"I suppose you are Rear-Admiral Blaize, the one who said to have defeated Speed. Now I know the rumors are true." King spoke.
The Beast pirates once clashed with the Speed pirates. Without a doubt, they are a formidable crew. Especially Speed, he was able to escape even after facing their Captain Kadiou.
"Yes," Blaize replied while an overbearing haki broke out of him. The air around twisted and rippled while an invisible shock wave exploded forth.
"Thud...thud...thud..."
The next moment, most of the beast pirates fell to the ground with their eyes rolled back and foams coming out their mouths. He doesn't want to have any distractions and leaving them may endanger the lives of his subordinates.
The Beast Pirates are knowledgeable and knew what this means. The ones who are able to remain conscious gulped while their hands trembled in slight fear as they knew the man before them is strong.
"King The conflagration and Jack the Drought, surrender yourself and hand me the devil fruit. I will let you live." Blaize let out some arrogant words for fun. Of course, he knew they won't surrender.
"Why don't you come and get it." Jack exuded killing intent as he unsheathed the scythe-like blades from the tusks on his shoulders.
"As you wish," Blaize uttered and exploded with terrifying strength while golden lightning flickered around his body multiplying his speed to the utmost limit.
On the other hand, Jack roared loudly as his arms and weapons were shrouded in Armament Haki as if clad in dark armor. At the same time, King conjured a flame in his right hand.
Blaize's target is Jack. His figure blurred and reappeared before Jack stunning the latter as he couldn't even react.
Though Jack is strong he's slow in the movements. Moreover, Jack of now isn't as strong as shown in the original timeline as he's just nineteen years old right now.
A fist bubbled with golden energy smashed Jack squarely in the face. The flame-clad punch didn't make contact with the skin, but the force behind the attack directly bypassed his defense and shredded his inners.
In that fraction of the fraction, Blaize dealt another blow by slightly turning his body to the left. His left elbow struck the center of Jack's chest blasting him away.
In both the blows, Blaize used everything in his arsenal. His attack carried strength, speed, advanced Haki concept, and devil fruit power. He held nothing back!
Jack's body smashed into the railings of the ship and slide to the floor, completely unconscious. His face was completely deformed while blood oozed from his mouth, ears, and nose while a scorching dent could be seen in his chest.
Just two full-power attacks, It's all it took to force Jack to the brink of his death.
