Vongola Primo in One Piece - Chapter 358
“Then I’ll leave it to you, but just this once, or else I’ll beat you up along with him.”
He still wanted to enjoy the battle, but Knuckle just had to come and ruin it. However, since they had already made their bet, Alaudi naturally couldn’t say anything. After all, from a broader perspective, this battle indeed should come to an end.
Although being interrupted in the midst of battle made him upset, a warning would suffice for now. If Knuckle did it again, he would definitely give Knuckle a beating!
“Glad to see you understand. Well, the next battle will be an ultimate one! Garp, the Vice Admiral, and the Marine Hero. Just thinking about it gives me chills!”
Knuckle walked slowly towards Garp.
At this moment, everyone stepped out of the way. Even someone as temperamental as Akainu cast his ego aside at this moment.
On the entire battlefield, only Mihawk and Ugetsu Asari refused to step out of the way. Ugetsu Asari did say that the outcome would be decided in one move, but until now, neither of them had made their move, the decisive strike had not yet to come.
Mihawk wanted to show Ugetsu Asari his best, dishing out an unparalleled attack. Meanwhile, Ugetsu Asari was waiting for Mihawk to show him a swordsmanship that would truly impress him. Otherwise, he would have played his Requiem of Soul long ago and ended the battle.
This indicated that Ugetsu Asari’s swordsmanship was indeed superior to Mihawk’s.
“Young man, how about showing a little respect for your elders? Let me punch you three times before we begin.” Garp flexed his colossal fists and said with a smile. It must be said that he was quite shameless, as he was one of the most prominent fighters in this world. Who in the world would let him punch them three times without defending? Not even Kaido or Big Mom would do that.
If you really had to find someone like that, it might be Skull. As Skull did withstand Whitebeard’s Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability during their fight in Wano.
“Of course, that’s… impossible, Old man. Don’t make jokes like that. If you throw those three punches, it will be over right away.”
Although Knuckle could be an honest and straightforward person sometimes, he was not a fool!
“Hahaha! I was just joking. But go easy on me, yeah?”
As he spoke, Garp took a heavy step forward. As if an unstoppable beast charging ahead, with each step, he made the ice beneath him shook.
It was such an overwhelming power that even Knuckle felt slightly intimidated.
With this kind of momentum, Garp had no more need for words. He immediately made his move, throwing a punch at Knuckle! The sheer force tore the air, and even the ice was cracking under the pressure.
“The ultimate fiery spirit!”
Knuckle burst into laughter and then leaped forward, countering Garp’s punch with his own.
The golden Sun Flames enveloped everything in front of it, crushing them with overwhelming force.
The ice surface created by Aokiji was simply unable to withstand this level of power.
“So this is Vongola Family Sun Guardian, huh?”
Garp couldn’t help but say as his opponent’s punch was extremely powerful, and under the cover of the golden light and flames, even his expression couldn’t help but become serious. He immediately braced himself as he clashed with Knuckle’s attack.
The clash of the two incredibly overwhelming forces created a loud sound, and neither could push back their opponent with this attack.
At the same time, as if having a telepathic connection, neither Garp nor Knuckle cared about the outcome of their previous clash. Thirty meters was just a blink of an eye for the two of them. Before anyone could even blink, they already closed the distance and punched each other mid-air.
Another loud bang echoed, and the incredibly intense aura swept through the area. Even Garp and Knuckle were pushed back because of this clash.
The dreadful shockwaves from their clash completely crushed the ice around them. If Aokiji hadn’t frozen the sea deep enough earlier, they probably wouldn’t even have a place to stand right now.
“Well done, young man. There are very few people in the world who can clash head-on with me… Bring it on!”
Garp shouted and immediately closed in on Knuckle. He aimed a kick towards Knuckle’s waist.
Seeing the opponent’s move, Knuckle quickly sidestepped and countered with a punch.
It was like two hard metals colliding. Both of them were pushed back upon collsion.
“Interesting!”
Knuckle shouted, and his eyes were filled with fighting spirit. His aura had grown even more intense. Like the blazing sun illuminating the world, anyone who saw it would be in awe.
Then, Knuckle enveloped his entire body with Sun Flame. This was a technique he could also use. However, most opponents couldn’t even force him to use this technique. When Knuckle enveloped his entire body with Sun Flame, it would produce the same effect as Giotto’s Sun Tattoo. In fact, it might even be stronger!
