The top of a broken building.
Ficheux Erman chewed peanuts, turned to Ross and said with some hatred, “You’ve cost me 400 million Berries.”
Ross, who had worked for a long time before as Pirate Hunter has heard the name Ficheux Erman, the person who is standing on the top of Pirate Hunters. He looked at Ficheux Erman and said:
“400 million Berries should be nothing to you, You must have been quite bored to come here.”
Ficheux Erman crooked his head and said, “Yeah, it’s boring.”
“It’s better to change your goal, such as conquering the world… Come to my s.h.i.+p.” Ross slightly smiled and invited Ficheux Erman.
He does lack a powerful gun expert on board.
“Ha? What did you say?
Ficheux Erman looked at Ross in silence and said, “I know you, a bounty of 440 million Berries, Ghost Hand Ross, but what about conquering the world? Are you crazy?”
As he spoke, he pinched a peanut and shot it towards Ross.
Sneer!
This ordinary peanut, at the moment he pops it up, presents a very weird superposition of speed. In a moment, it surpa.s.ses the speed of sound by more than double!
Speed means power. In front of such speed, even a peanut grain has terrible lethality.
Buzz!!
After his Devil Fruit awakened, the power of distortion can be aroused by Ross’s thoughts. At the rate of the explosion, the peanut invaded the three-foot area in front of him, then slowed down abruptly, moved forward inch by inch, and was finally crushed to powder.
Ficheux Erman looked at the scene and was surprised and said: “It seems that I underestimated you, but even if you have such strength, conquering the sea or something, your goal is still too impractical.”
“Well, your bounty must be more than 440 million next time and I won’t be fighting with you.” Ficheux Erman dropped another peanut into his mouth and disappeared in a flash.
A few seconds after he disappeared.
Robin looked at the direction in which he disappeared and said with grave eyes, “He is fast.”
“He is indeed very fast, but it’s not his own speed. It should be his Devil Fruit ability.”
Ross nodded, thinking a little bit: “He can instantly accelerate the Peanuts to that extent, if not mistaken, it should be Paramecia speed fruit.”
There are many devil fruits of the time branch. In Ross’s memory, there are slow devil fruit, retrogressive devil fruit and so on. This speed devil fruit should correspond to slow fruits, one is slow devil fruit and the other is speed devil fruit.
And just now on that peanut, he also attached to a strong enough Armament Haki, the penetration power of that peanut must be very strong.
“Even if he can’t beat a Marine Admiral, His power level should be similar to mine. It’s hard to tell who wins or loses without fighting.”
Ross judged Ficheux Erman’s strength in his mind.
It was too late for him to raise his arm to resist the speed of the peanut grain just now, but after the awakening of Distortion Fruit, his whole body could activate the power of distortion and form a wall of Distortion. Without breaking the wall of Distortion, no one could do any serious harm to him.
Even if it can be pierced, it will be slowed down, so that he has enough time to avoid, such as the peanut just now.
This is also the reason he could finally escape under Aokiji’s pursuit, otherwise, he would have been caught by him.
“My speed is still slower.”
Ross murmured, and his mind evoked the Interface of the Talent System.
After Distortion Fruit awakened, although the power of distortion has improved a lot and he was able to release it outside of his body and into the air, the burden on his body is reduced a little and the devil fruit power and his physical body are once again in equilibrium so there is no need to fill the physical enhancement.
After thinking about it, Ross put 40-Proficiency Points to the Agility Enhancement.
Agility Enhancement: 260 (Top Level Strengthening)
Physical Enhancement: 400 (Top Level Strengthening)
Spirit Heart: 0(Basic Level Strengthening)
Tenacious: 50 (Mid Level Strengthening)
After putting 40 points in agility, the distance between his body speed and Aokiji is much closer, and even if it is still not comparable, he will not fall into too great a disadvantage in the frontal combat.
As for the remaining 50 proficiency points, Ross hesitated for a while.
Now Distortion Fruit has reached 510 points of proficiency and has reached a balance with his body. If it continues to go up, the scores will be allocated to Distortion Fruit and Physical Enhancement, respectively, with little improvement.
By contrast, If he put the 50 proficiency points on Observation Haki, Armament Haki, or Tenacious, Spirit Heart of General Department, he can make it break through the current stage, upgrade to Mid Level or High-Level Strengthening and achieve a huge single improvement.
Thinking about it.
Ross suddenly thought of something and immediately made a decision to put 50 proficiency points to the Observation Haki.
Buzz!!
The golden light flashed, and the Battle’s talent interface changed for a while and finally stopped.
Firearms Shooting: 50
Close-Combat Fighting: 100
Distortion Fruit: 510
Soru of Marine’s Rokus.h.i.+ki: 0
Kami-e (Paper Drawing) of Marine’s Rokus.h.i.+ki: 0
Marine’s Rokus.h.i.+ki’s Geppō (Moonwalk):0
Observation Haki: 100
Armament Haki: 50
As the data is frozen, Ross clearly feels that his Observation Haki’s range of perceptions has increased by a large margin, and the details that can be captured have also increased by a large margin.
In the previous encounter with Aokiji, in the state of activating Spirit Heart, he concentrates and makes full use of Kenbonshoku (Observation) to capture Aokiji’s full-speed movement.
If he encounters Kizaru, His Kenbonshoku (Observation) is obviously not good.
Here is the Sabaody Archipelago, the possibility of encountering Kizaru is not small, with the 50 proficiency points to Kenbonshoku (Observation) and 40 proficiency points to Agility Enhancement. He can now keep up with Aokiji in speed and he can react and rely on the power of distortion while facing Kizaru.
“Robin, inform Laffitte to go back to the s.h.i.+p and you also go back.”
Marine Admiral has a good chance of arriving quickly. If it comes to Kizaru, he is not afraid, but it is not so easy to protect Robin and others. Laffitte and Robin and others are weak in strength after all.
As for himself… He doesn’t mind playing a game of tricks with an Admiral. It would be even better if he could kill a few tenryubitos on the way and make the government and Marine’s top leaders jump like thunder.
Now, he is not a small person who can be easily manipulated by the World Government and Marine!
……
At the same time, Marine Headquarters.
In the top office, Sengoku was standing in the middle of the room, frowning slightly at his subordinates’reports, just as Kizaru, dressed in a justice cloak, came in.
Looking at Kizaru coming in, Sengoku nodded at him slightly and said, “Ghost Hand Ross appeared on the Sabaody Archipelago, killing Strange Guest Byron, one of the Supernova’s.”
“The man who is defined as a wicked criminal is constantly killing pirates.” Kizaru went to the tea table, poured a cup of tea, sipped it, and answered in a long tone.
Sengoku’s face darkened instantly, but Kizaru’s statement was true.
“Although those pirates can indeed be sentenced to death, they have been deprived of their lives without legal trials, it is a contempt for the government and he is still a wicked criminal!”
“That’s true. Now that he’s on the Sabaody Archipelago, we can’t sit back and ignore him. Otherwise, the government will condemn us again. I’ll go there.”
Kizaru took another sip of tea, stood up and walked outside.
To let him deal with Yonkō (Four Emperors), he must be dragged and dropped at that point, but to deal with the existence other than Yonkō (Four Emperors), it is a casual run for him.
Grasping nature is merit and there is no loss in catching it, not to mention that Ross and others can escape from Aokiji’s hands doesn’t mean that they will be able to escape from his hands.
At least in terms of speed, he’s much faster than Aokiji!
