Chapter 83: Aramaki vs. Dragon
Long slowly raised his hand, and a mini tornado emerged from his palm. Huangmu sneered, and all ten fingers turned into tentacle-like vines.
When the newcomers on the field saw this situation, they all moved towards where Jiger was. When they got closer, they found that their seniors had already been standing there.
There's no way. Jiger, Kizaru, Akainu and others can give people a strong sense of security just by standing here.
With these people around, they just need to watch the show with peace of mind. After all, the natural battle scenes are still very shocking.
With the big guys shaking around, the students have already started to discuss in a relaxed manner.
"Hey, isn't that Long? I haven't seen him since school started."
"He's recovering from his injuries. Didn't you see how badly he was beaten up by Senior Jiger that day?"
"It's because he's a bad mouth. I heard everything on the day he joined the army. He came up and started giving orders to Senior Jiger like a fool."
"He's a naturalist after all. And he's the son of Vice Admiral Garp, so of course he's different from us!"
"Tsk! What's so great about this? Senior Jiger is also a nature-type. Tsk, tsk, he defeated three nature-type ability users at once. He is worthy of being my idol!"
"Yeah, look at how calm Senior Jiger is. Oh my god! I really admire him so much!"
"Okay, wipe your saliva. Why are you such a nymphomaniac as a man?"
"..."
As the user of the Wind-Wind Fruit, Long has extremely sharp perception. The students' discussions were carried to his ears by the wind, making his face even uglier.
In fact, Huangmu had been observing Jiger's movements. After confirming that Jiger had no intention of coming out to stop him, he picked his nose and flicked a black booger towards the dragon opposite.
The booger passed through Long's body and fell on the ground at his feet. Although he didn't touch it, Long still showed disgust on his face and said,
"You are so disgusting!"
He suddenly threw the tornado in his hand towards Huangmu, and Huangmu grew a dandelion behind him and floated away with the wind.
Long Huafeng wanted to chase him, but the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked open. A huge man-eating plant opened its mouth, revealing a row of black teeth. Long's expression changed.
"What? It's from just now..."
puff!
The Piranha Plant suddenly closed and swallowed the dragon whole. Huang Mu in the sky laughed when he saw this.
"How was it? How does it feel to have a booger in your mouth?"
As a vegetative person, the booger he just dug out could naturally turn into seeds, and they were seeds that were wrapped in armed colors.
"You bastard!!"
The dragon's angry curse came from the mouth of the carnivorous plant, and then the carnivorous plant exploded with a loud bang. A hurricane rose into the sky, and several wind blades shot out from it. Huangmu's body was instantly cut into several pieces.
However, soon, dense branches emerged from the bodies and quickly connected together. Huang Mu crossed his arms and sneered,
"This move is useless to me. The element of wind has no substance, and with your attainments in armament color, you can't attach domineering aura to the invisible wind."
Long said with a cold face,
"so what?"
"Haha, try this, Forest Snake Strangulation!"
Huang Mu spread his arms and turned them into two thick tree trunks, from which a large number of wooden thorns gushed out, and each thorn tip was shining with a dark luster.
Then, all the wooden thorns grew wildly and rushed towards the dragon in the center from all directions.
The attack range of this move is really too large, and it is all armed with armament color, which directly blocks the dragon's retreat.
Long's eyes focused, and the air around him gathered, forming a spherical shield made of wind around his body.
"Wind Barrier!"
The wooden thorns that flew towards him were shredded into pieces by the violent wind the moment they made contact, but there were too many of them, and soon the barrier began to flicker, and finally dissipated completely with a puff.
Fortunately, Huangmu's attack had reached its limit. Long roared and released a spiral hurricane, which crushed the remaining wooden thorns and broke away, rushing towards Huangmu on the opposite side.
Huangmu raised a pair of thick eyebrows, entered the tree man state, and fought with the dragon that was pouncing on him.
He used to be a member of CP0, so he was naturally strong in physical skills. But Long had received one-on-one coaching from Garp after all. At the beginning, the two of them fought back and forth, but as time went on, Huangmu's side had clearly shown signs of decline.
In close combat, Long can use physical attacks that are entangled with domineering power, and also has the cutting attribute of wind.
On the other hand, Huangmu was at a disadvantage. When the distance was shortened, his fruit ability could only be to grow vines or thorns from his body to harass the opponent, but the plants without any domineering power could be easily crushed by the dragon's wind.
Huangmu's Armament Haki was not at the level where he could use it casually, so he had to defend himself. However, the dragon still caught his weakness and knocked him down from the air with a dragon claw.
With a loud bang, Huangmu's body fell to the ground, leaving a big hole. Long followed closely, raised his hands, condensed a spherical wind ball, and threw it into the big hole where Huangmu was.
The wind group exploded in the pit, erupting into a powerful air storm that crushed everything underground.
A seed floated out of the pit and began to grow immediately after falling to the ground. A large number of vines intertwined together and condensed into Huang Mu's body again.
Huangmu looked a little unwell. He lay on the ground gasping for breath. Aokiji in the distance saw this and shouted,
"Stop fighting Huangmu! You'll get hurt if you keep fighting!"
Huang Mu raised his eyebrows and habitually wanted to say something to Aokiji, but when he turned around and saw Aokiji with a worried look on his face, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He stood up and muttered,
"Tsk! Who wants you, an idiot, to meddle in other people's business?"
As he spoke, he looked up at the dragon that was slowly descending from the sky and said to himself,
"I can't let a fool like you look down on me! I hate you so much!"
Huangmu directly entered the form of a giant tree man, and rushed towards the landed dragon with a sea of trees. The dragon then brought up a hurricane and collided with Huangmu.
In fact, the difference in strength between the two is not that big, especially on the ground, Huang Mu has the advantage, and it is much more difficult for Long to deal with it than in the sky.
Therefore, it is impossible for Long to defeat Huangmu in a short period of time. During this period, Huangmu kept verbally attacking Long. Long had a sullen face and did not talk back because he was confident that he could win. The more Huangmu talked, the more miserable he would lose.
After the two fought for a while, Huangmu could no longer hold on and the giant tree man's body collapsed.
Seeing this, Long, who was in better condition than him, couldn't help but smile like a winner and used his special move, the dragon hook claw, to hook towards Huangmu.
At this time, Huangmu has reached his limit. Once this move hits, it means the end of the battle.
Just when Long was about to enjoy the joy of victory, a dark vortex emerged from his side, and Jiger finally took action.
With a snap, Long's wrist was firmly grasped by Jiger. Jiger's light voice came into his ears as he was sweating profusely.
"Okay, that's it."
"puff!"
