Chapter 973 There's Still a Fight

Hades watched the battle closely, waiting for Garp's arrival.

The battle with Garp is the real test for Teach.

Teach, who was only twenty years old, faced Garp, who was at the peak of his powers.

The age gap is thirty-seven years.

I have to say, this will be a very difficult battle.

Experienced countless battles in the Sky Arena in the past.

But in terms of top-level combat power, it is another level.

Except for skill flows like Hades.

Combat will be much simpler, easier, and more deadly.

The way of the truth is simple. It is a competition of strength, a competition of reaction, a competition of three colors of dominance, and a competition of physique.

In all these aspects, Teach is at a disadvantage.

Anyone who possesses top combat power at the age of 20 is an absolute monster.

But to become a strong one among the top combat forces, you need to reach the admiral level or even the peak combat force of the ocean.

This age is far from enough and there is not enough accumulation.

Even adding a gravity field is not enough.

Unless you have a time machine, ten days of exercising will actually only mean one day has passed.

That hundred times effort is just a joke.

Everyone has the same amount of time, so does a hundred times the effort equate to a hundred times greater exercise efficiency?

The future Pirate King is just an example.

Even if he awakens the ability to foresee the future and comprehends the technique of internal destruction of domineering, he will be able to perform domineering color entanglement.

It also doesn’t mean that he has truly reached the pinnacle of the ocean.

Hades also mastered all these key skills at a young age.

In the final analysis, he only relied on the power of the Nika Fruit.

The impact resistance brought by his rubber body and the destructive power obtained through elasticity completely make up for his physical defects.

Plus that extraordinary resilience.

But in terms of his own strength, his body and physical strength cannot even withstand the awakening of the devil fruit.

Therefore, the experience card only lasts for a few minutes. If it lasts too long, it will drain your vitality.

Teach doesn't have a rubbery physique that would weaken his damage, nor does he have an amazing elasticity that would increase his strength by several or even dozens of times.

His physique was shaped through constant tempering over the years, relying on his own talent and hard work.

Especially in the past three years, he has been training under strong gravity most of the time, pushing his body to the limit time and time again.

You know, Teach has a special physique, with strong vitality and strange strength.

His abundant energy made him unable to sleep, so he didn't need to, and he had more time to exercise.

With the power of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit, Teach's physique in defense has been greatly improved.

This is the only place where he won't be too suppressed when facing Garp.

And this is also the foundation of a strong person.

In Hades' opinion, Teach still has a chance to fight.

By storing a large amount of food in the internal space of the Swallow Swallow Fruit, Teach can have more physical strength and recover from injuries quickly.

Besides, Teach also has the ability of the Dark-Dark Fruit.

He was also looking forward to seeing how far Teach would develop the Dark-Dark Fruit over the past three years.

This was an opportunity for Teach.

Kap is a huge grindstone.

As long as he can withstand the pressure brought by Garp, Teach's strength will undergo an amazing transformation through this battle.

Fighting is always one of the fastest ways to improve your strength.

Especially the two-color domineering, the armed color domineering can become stronger with battle and pressure.

Observation Haki is even more difficult to train, and can only be improved through combat.

This battle will also make Teach and the Black Emperor Pirates famous in the New World.

It will be beneficial for their future expansion after arriving in the New World.

Facing the upcoming Cap, Teach did not relax. He closed his eyes and rested, trying to gather his strength.

The atmosphere became increasingly silent, like still dead water.

On the battlefield, only Lister and Lafitte from the Black Emperor Pirates took action.

Harolant protected the pirate ship, and after blocking Borsalino's attack, he had no intention of continuing to attack.

Having Liszt and Lafitte seems to be enough for now.

Lafitte was no match for Borsalino, but with Lister's interference and assistance, his pressure was reduced to a certain extent.

The terrifying laser released by Borsalino at full power was enough to penetrate the phantom beast created by Lister, and even threaten Lister himself.

The inability to use Haki is a flaw in Lister's ability creation.

However, Lister had already arrived on the pirate ship and was protected by Haroldt.

The power of the Rebound Fruit can easily counteract Borsalino's flaws.

Harolant is not invincible. The barrier of the Rebound Fruit is hemispherical. When he uses the ability of the Rebound Fruit in a certain direction, his back is equivalent to being unguarded.

In actual combat, there is no need to worry about this problem because his reaction is fast enough.

Perhaps, when his ability is awakened, the rebound fruit will truly become unstoppable.

With the protection of Hallorant's "Absolute Defense", Lister doesn't need to worry about Borsalino's attack at all and can attack at will.

Even during the war, problems were discovered and adjustments were made.

Liszt's combat awareness was not strong, but that didn't mean he was a fool. As a talented musician, he could be said to be very smart.

The giant phantom beast disintegrated, allowing people to see the situation on the sky battlefield more clearly.

Maybe other ways are better than shaping life.

As the music changed, musical ripples appeared in the air, transforming into countless sharp blades that slashed towards Borsalino.

Liszt's performance was stunning enough, accompanied by countless sonic booms.

Lafitte took the opportunity to look for an offensive opportunity.

Liszt's sonic boom had no effect on him. The special notes stuck to his body, forming a transparent shield that could easily withstand the damage caused by the music.

Essentially, in Liszt's musical realm, everything produced by music is false.

But it can turn into substantial damage.

Liszt's protection is equivalent to transforming the sonic boom back into music.

With such capabilities, anyone can see the terrible war potential.

If the range is larger, these sonic booms can even destroy an island without affecting their companions.

This is a very terrifying ability that hurts others without hurting yourself, and it has no scruples at all.

Especially in war, it will arouse the fear of countless people.

Of course, Lister’s flaws are obvious. Apart from the amazing effects of his fruit ability, his own strength is too weak.

If you are not careful, you may be assassinated.

At that time, you might die without even using your abilities.

This is also the main reason why Hallorant protected Lister.

Otherwise, if Borsalino got serious, he would be able to kill Lister.

Pierce the Xuanwu that was protecting Lister, transform the element into the Xuanwu's body, and kill Lister with one blow before it can recover.

At that time, Lister wouldn't even have time to react.
