Chapter 39 Ajin's Might
Upon seeing this, Mr. 1 had a bad feeling and immediately warned, "Be careful!"
When Annie reappeared, she was already standing beside Mr. 3.
"Ok?"
Mr. 3 had also spotted Aini by this time, and his pupils contracted sharply, causing him to tremble.
"Candleball!"
It must be said that Mr. 3 reacted very quickly, using wax to form a ball and wrap himself up to protect himself.
"call..."
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "What incredible luck! Out of so many people, why did they choose him?"
"brush...."
At the same time, Aini instantly drew his Sandai Kitetsu sword. As a swordsman, he could immediately sense the weakness in the candle-shaped ball.
Just as one can sense the flaws in iron and thus cut through it.
The Sandai Kitetsu drew a graceful arc in the air, slicing the candle ball in two.
Then you see the candle ball being cut open, and the upper part slowly slides down and hits the ground.
"hiss..."
Mr. 3 gasped, a chill running from his tailbone straight to his head. His hair even felt like it was standing on end!
In that instant, I was drenched in cold sweat...
Because I just brushed my hand against his face.
It was as if his candle bulb was made of paper. He simply sliced it open... Keep in mind, the wax he made was as hard as iron!
How could it be cut open so easily!
Most importantly, if the knife had gone down just a little bit further, his head would have been sliced open like this candle.
This was the closest he ever came to death.
"You're asking for it..."
Mr. 1 was furious. For someone like Aini to bypass him and attack Mr. 3 was simply an insult.
You should know that he is the strongest person here.
Aini's opponent should also be him.
"Dust-Slicing Speed Blade!"
He took a deep breath, then focused his mind, and the power of the Devil Fruit surged from within him instantly. Then, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded—his feet began to deform, magically transforming into incredibly sharp blades! Those blades gleamed with a cold light, seemingly capable of easily slicing through anything.
After completing the transformation, he shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, moving with lightning speed. His figure was as fast as lightning, leaving only a blurry afterimage. In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of Aini, his entire movement fluid and without the slightest hesitation.
At the same time, his hands began to undergo a wondrous transformation. His palms and fingers rapidly materialized into sharp blades, as thin as cicada wings yet incredibly hard, exuding a deadly aura. With a flick of his arm, these blades, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, pierced straight towards Aini.
Such a swift and ferocious attack would leave an ordinary person with no time to react. The consequences of being stabbed would be unimaginable. It wouldn't just be a simple stab wound; the victim would likely be sliced into several pieces on the spot—a gruesome sight!
"shave...."
At that moment, Akin disappeared from the spot and reappeared in front of Miss Golden Week.
Miss Golden Week froze, her pupils shrinking to pinpoints.
"Gurgle..."
He even instinctively swallowed.
"not good...."
Mr. 3's expression changed drastically.
Aini's lips curled into a sly smile. Just now, his attack, which seemed to be directed at Mr. 3, was actually nothing more than a carefully planned feint.
The reason is simple: Mr. 3 and Miss. Golden Week have been partners for a long time and have developed an excellent rapport. This rapport makes their teamwork in battle seamless.
Mr. 3 was constantly watching Miss. Golden Week's every move, because he knew her weaknesses. If he rashly launched an attack on Miss. Golden Week, given the distance between them and Mr. 3's strength, rescuing her in time would be a piece of cake.
In this way, not only will they fail to capture Miss Golden Week, but they may also find themselves caught in a pincer attack.
Just like now, once he realizes what's happening, Mr. 1 will come to the rescue immediately.
After careful consideration, Aini decided to launch a feint attack. This would attract everyone's attention and distract Mr. 3 from Miss Golden Week.
Miss Golden Week, having lost the protection of Mr.3, is like a lamb to the slaughter.
After all, her strength lies in her powerful control. However, her physical skills are quite poor. Once she gets an opening, even with Akin's strength, she'll likely fall to his hammer before she can even react.
"Oh no..." Just then, Mr. 1 and Mr. 3 snapped out of their daze, but it was too late. Everyone else, just like them, was completely absorbed by Annie, so much so that they completely ignored Miss Golden Week's presence.
With a loud bang, Ah Jin raised his hammer and brought it down, the heavy blow striking Miss Golden Week. Instantly, her eyes became unfocused, as if she had lost consciousness, and her entire body slumped to the ground.
Almost simultaneously, Aini swung the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand forward with lightning speed, precisely blocking Mr. 1's sudden attack. In an instant, an astonishingly powerful recoil force traveled along the blade, causing Aini's body to sway slightly, but he quickly regained his balance.
In contrast, Mr.1 was forced back by the force of the impact, taking a full three steps before he could barely regain his footing.
The difference in quality is immediately apparent.
“Miss Golden Week....." Mr. 3 exclaimed.
"Melt, Melt, Carve - Sword!"
The once soft wax rapidly solidified, forming a massive and incredibly hard sword in the blink of an eye. The sword gleamed with a chilling light, seemingly imbued with boundless power and majesty.
It's worth noting that in the original comics, Mr. 3 used this move to successfully pin the powerful Brogy's hand firmly to the ground. This demonstrates that the power of this technique should not be underestimated.
However, at this moment, Mr. 3's target is not Brogy, but Arkin!
Facing such a formidable enemy, Akin showed no fear whatsoever. He took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, and then suddenly began to spin in place.
He was like a spinning top, getting faster and faster until he spun a full 360 degrees! Just as the spin stopped, using the powerful force of the spin, Akin swung his cane hammer with tremendous force at Mr. 3's greatsword.
