Chapter 243: Surrender? Not a chance.
call!
As the old man finished speaking, the flames that had been burning fiercely behind him began to slowly die down.
"Kid! Open your eyes wide and watch closely, this is the ultimate speed you've been waiting for!"
boom!
"what?"
In an instant, the old man vanished from his spot. Mu Chong and Enel, who was watching from the sidelines, both showed expressions of surprise, because in their Observation Haki perception, the old man's movements were all afterimages.
"Wow! After the flames on Lunalia's back went out, was she really that fast? Even in the anime, King's speed wasn't this terrifying, was it?"
In the instant of his surprise, Mu Chong resumed his battle stance, unleashing his Observation Haki to its fullest extent as he frantically sensed everything around him.
call!
The next second, the old man's jet-black fist appeared on Mu Chong's left side, attacking with terrifying power.
"So fast! Can't keep up?"
The moment the old man's fist appeared, Mu Chong sensed it with his Observation Haki, but his body was unable to perfectly defend against it.
boom!
The old man's dark fist struck Mu Chong's half-raised arm, sending him flying. Mu Chong's body crashed rapidly against the stone wall behind him.
call!
"What's wrong, kid! Why aren't you fighting back? Can't keep up with my speed?"
The next second, the old man appeared directly behind Mu Chong, and before Mu Chong could adjust his body, he was once again blasted away by the old man's punch.
boom!
Rumble!
This time, Mu Chong's body slammed into a stone pillar inside the palace, the immense force of the impact causing the entire Colossus to shake violently.
Hey!
The old man's figure froze in mid-air, looking down at Mu Chong, who had fallen to the base of the stone pillar. A hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes, but his words remained unrelenting.
"Hahaha! Kid! Do you regret what you just said? The power of my clan is not something that just anyone can withstand! Huh?"
Just as the old man began to mock Mu Chong, Mu Chong, who had fallen to the floor, stood up with a smile, easily straightened his clothes, and casually unfastened the long sword, White Dragon, from his waist.
"Wow, that's fast! Old man! The speed after sacrificing so much of your own defense has made it impossible for my limbs to make an accurate defense. That's amazing!"
Swish!
Mu Chong spoke casually to the old man, while slowly approaching Enel. He then tossed the longsword, White Dragon, to Enel.
"Oh? Dropping your weapon? Hahahaha! Kid, are you trying to admit defeat? No problem, no problem! I never really wanted to fight you..."
The old man's eyes flashed with disappointment upon seeing Mu Chong's actions, but he didn't show it. He slowly descended from mid-air while laughing.
"Hehehe! No! Old man! Fighting against the strong is something I've always looked forward to! Surrender? In my understanding, those two words have never existed!"
After handing the white dragon over to Enel, Mu Chong slowly returned to the battlefield, his expression gradually hardening.
"Old man! Your speed is indeed very fast! But my Observation Haki can still detect your attack. It's just that my body is affected by certain factors, so I can't perfectly defend or even counterattack!"
hum!
Mu Chong paused here, and the power of his Strength-Strength Fruit activated instantly. In a flash, his white robe fluttered without wind.
"However! If I can eliminate these factors that affect my combat as much as possible, then your speed will no longer be a problem!"
boom!
Under everyone's bewildered gaze, waves of white energy erupted from Mu Chong's body, instantly enveloping the entire Giant God Palace.
But this wasn't the end. The white ripples that had spread outwards suddenly began to recede rapidly back towards Mu Chong's body.
Spread it out! Bring it back in! Spread it out! Bring it back in!
This phenomenon continued until the white ripples completely converged within five centimeters of Mu Chong's body, at which point they finally stopped moving. At this point, the energy waves had transformed into an extremely dense, milky white.
"Hahahaha! Come on! Let's fight!"
boom!
With a loud shout from Mu Chong, a terrifying shockwave erupted, instantly engulfing the entire Colossus Temple and even causing the summit to tremble.
"Hahaha! What unexpected fighting power! Kid! Let me see if your reliance can protect you!"
"as you wish!"
boom!boom!
Two explosive sounds rang out almost simultaneously, accompanied by powerful sound effects, as Mu Chong and the old man's fists once again slammed towards each other.
Swish!
The next second! The old man's body vanished again in mid-air. After the flames behind him extinguished, the movement speed of the Lunaria clan increased to a terrifying level.
call!
Just as Mu Chong adjusted his body in mid-air, a jet-black foot seemed to appear out of thin air, kicking towards Mu Chong's head with a fierce attack.
"Hey! That's more than enough!"
boom!
With a cold laugh, Mu Chong's hands, enveloped in Armament Haki, suddenly appeared directly in front of his feet. With a deafening crash, Mu Chong's hands forcefully blocked the old man's attack.
"Ok?"
Mu Chong's defensive move made the old man, who was under attack, frown instantly, his face filled with surprise. The guy who was just struggling to defend had actually blocked it?
"Humph!"
The old man snorted coldly, retreating rapidly and moving at high speed once more. He then unleashed a barrage of attacks on Mu Chong with unrestrained force, convinced that what had just happened was merely a coincidence.
boom! boom! boom!
But as the old man continued his attacks, the surprise on his face became increasingly apparent.
"Accepted it? Completely accepted it?"
Indeed, the old man's attacks were completely parried by Mu Chong. Even though Mu Chong didn't block several attacks, he was able to perfectly dodge them with his fast-moving body.
boom!
With surprise and confusion, the old man stopped fighting after exchanging a punch with Mu Chong, flipped in the air, and landed steadily on the ground.
"Tell me! Kid! How did you do that? I don't believe that the white substance surrounding your body could predict my attack!"
The old man's tiger-like eyes widened, staring intently at the smiling Mu Chong before him, desperately wanting to know the answer.
"Whew! Hehehe! I did it!"
Mu Chong simply exhaled deeply, then gave the old man a thumbs-up, said something excitedly, and then fell silent.
"you……"
The old man trembled with anger at Mu Chong's behavior, pointing a finger at him but remaining speechless for a long time.
"Hahahaha! You rascal! Very good! Knowing how to conceal your talents is indeed a good trait! Sigh! I'm really getting old!"
The old man lowered his hands, praised Mu Chong, then slowly turned around with his hands behind his back, walking towards the back of the Colossus. The flames behind him reignited, but his silhouette appeared so forlorn.
"Captain! How did you do that?"
Just then, Enel and the white cat Mumu, who had just finished the battle, quickly approached. Enel immediately asked...
"Hehehe! It's just a Devil Fruit ability..."
"Hey! Kids! Come with me! Since fate has brought you here, then some things belong to you!"
Just as Mu Chong and Enel were talking, an old man walking ahead said something that caught their attention.
Upon hearing this, Mu Chong and Enel exchanged a glance, then followed without hesitation.
