Chapter 25: Tigerman Ryan

"Hahahaha, not bad, not bad. Once you become familiar with and master this power, there will definitely be a place for you in this ocean!"

Kuro looked at Ryan, and the more he looked, the more he felt like he was seeing little Kaido, but he didn't know how his recovery ability was.

"Don't worry, Captain. I will definitely master this power as soon as possible!"

"Then use this power to kill all the enemies that stand in your way!"

Ryan patted his chest and swore.

"Hahaha, it's up to you from now on, Ryan."

"Captain, there is a small island ten miles ahead. It doesn't look like it has any inhabitants."

While Ryan was chatting with the captain, Clo came over.

"Go ahead with all your strength. I want to test Ryan's fruit ability."

After hearing Kuro's instructions, Kuro walked over and asked everyone to row hard.

"Ryan, restore your human form and take a rest. Then get off the boat and fight me with all your strength. I want to see how much your strength has improved."

"It's the captain."

After Ryan finished speaking, he returned to his human form, but his height grew from over three meters to just over four meters.

"Oh, the devil fruit is really good. It can make me grow taller, and the muscles all over my body seem to be much stronger than before."

After Kuro finished speaking, Ryan realized that he had grown taller.

He pounded his muscles and found that he was indeed much stronger than before.

As they were chatting, the black ship docked at the shore of the island, and Kuro and Ryan got off the ship.

After finding an open space, Ryan entered the human-beast form, and Kuro pulled out the Budd Soul.

"Then be careful, Captain. I'm very strong now!"

Ryan's face was full of confidence.

"Hahaha, you have to be careful too, Ryan. My knife can devour even the soul."

"Okay, you attack first Ryan."

After Kuro finished speaking, Ryan opened his mouth and roared, "White Tiger Roar!"

White light waves flashed and sprayed towards Kuro.

Kuro swung his sword from left to right and cut directly at the light wave.

As soon as it came into contact, Kuro thought something was wrong. This was not light waves, but metal!

Ding Ding Ding Ding!

A sound of metal striking was heard, and upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there were metal particles mixed in the light waves.

"White Tiger, the lord of the west, is in charge of killing and its five elements are metal. Does it have the power to control metal?"

"No wonder Ryan's mace suddenly grew so big!"

Kuro suddenly thought, since the ability of the fruit can make the mace grow bigger, can this ability be used to affect the enemy's weapon and make it smaller?

Wait a minute, after the fight is over, let Ryan try it.

"I'm going to unleash my full strength, Ryan!"

"Hahaha, let me challenge you at full power, Captain!"

After Ryan finished speaking, Kuro no longer held back. The armament color wrapped around the blade, and the blade instantly turned pitch black.

Then there was a flash of knife light, boom!!!

The white tiger's roar was shattered with one strike.

There were metal particles all over the ground.

Then, Kuro held the Budō Tamagotchi and stepped on the ground repeatedly, and flashed directly in front of Ryan.

Then with a knife in both hands, he used a move to smash Huashan!

"Kill me!"

boom! ! !

The mace in Ryan's hand was almost blown away, but fortunately he gritted his teeth and held on.

Kuro felt Ryan's power, which was completely different from before.

He smiled with satisfaction, that's great, Ryan.

Bang, bang, bang!

Clang, clang, clang!

The two men fought each other wildly with knives and sticks on the island.

Although Ryan is not yet able to wrap his weapon with armament color, with the help of the fruit's ability, his mace has grown greatly and is not at all inferior to Budōmyouhun when he fights against him.

"Hahaha, so happy!"

"One Sword Style: Great King Slash!"

Kuro, who was enjoying the battle, released his ultimate move directly.

The blade of Butu Yuhun's sword suddenly ignited with blood-red flames, and Kuro held the sword with both hands and chopped it down vertically!

I saw a blood-red flame roaring towards Ryan.

Seeing the captain's fierce attack, Ryan also released his ultimate move.

"Tiger convex!"

The mace in Ryan's hand had spikes protruding from it, and the shaft was surrounded by a white and gold aura.

Ryan twisted his hands and chopped it out horizontally!

Boom! Buzz! Buzz!

The knife and the stick collided, sparks flew immediately, and the stalemate continued, during which the mace kept shaking!

“Hahaha, has your strength exploded to this level? Ryan! Hahaha!”

Seeing Ryan's strength in all aspects increase exponentially, Kuro laughed happily.

After all, one person cannot support the whole thing alone. No matter how strong a person is, he will die if he is besieged by others.

Now that he sees Ryan has become stronger, Kuro can rest assured and trust him with his back.

Kuro was still able to talk and chat during the battle, looking very relaxed.

On the other hand, Ryan clenched his teeth, said nothing, and tried his best to deal with the pressure from Budu Yuhun.

Ryan thought to himself that the captain's strength was still so terrifying, even though his current strength was far inferior to before.

However, he was still crushed in the battle with the captain. It seems that he still has a long way to go to catch up with the captain.

Just when the two were in a stalemate, they suddenly heard a cracking sound. Kuro tilted his head and found that Ryan's mace was cracked!

boom!

With a direct slash of the sword, Butu Yuhun cut off the mace.

If Kuro hadn't retracted most of his strength in time, Ryan would probably have been seriously injured.

But a small part of the force still passed through Ryan's body and directly cut a wound on his chest!

"Hey, Captain, you are too abnormal! My strength has increased so much, but I can't even withstand your sword."

Ryan looked frustrated.

Holding a half-broken tooth extraction stick in his hand, he released his beast mode, knelt on one leg on the ground, and covered the wound on his chest with his hand. Blood continued to seep out from between his fingers.

"You can't blame me, it's because your mace was not strong enough, so it was cut off by Budu Yuhun."

"By the way, can your fruit ability manipulate metal?"

Kuroo asked and Ryan looked surprised.

"Captain, how did you know that? It is true that I can manipulate metal, but for now I can only use it to modify my weapons and attach it to my attacks."

“It’s just like that.”

As soon as Ryan finished speaking, the half of the mace that had just been cut off on the ground turned into metal particles and flew directly into his hand.

Then it merged with the remaining half of the mace in his hand to form a mace.

It turned out to be the case.

"Ryan, can you affect other people's weapons during a fight?"

"Yeah, hahaha, actually I tried to influence your Budu Soul just now, but just when I wanted to make it smaller, I felt that I was locked by a murderous intent, so I couldn't influence it."

"Hahaha, Budu Yuhun is a sword with soul. Fortunately, you didn't continue, otherwise you would have been seriously injured by him."

If Budu Yuhun gets angry, he will directly attack your soul. At that time, even if your body is strong, you will not be able to resist.

After Ryan finished speaking, Kuro asked the crew on the ship to throw down the long steel sword he had brought with him.

"Now, Ryan, see if you can influence him."

After saying this, Kuro slashed at him with a knife, and Ryan took the attack with his mace.

The two collided, and the long sword in Kuro's hand suddenly shattered into metal fragments.

"Look hahaha, it really works!"

"That's right Captain, I can change metal structures if I can touch them."

After Ryan finished speaking, he restored the long sword.

"I'll bless him with Armament Haki, you try again."

After Kuro finished speaking, the armament color wrapped around the blade, and Ryan tried to use the power of the fruit.

The experimental result is that there is an impact, but it cannot be turned into pieces, it can only bend.

After all, after being wrapped in armament color, it is equivalent to the weapon being coated with a film of armament color, and the surface is no longer made of metal.

The ability of the fruit can only have some impact on the blade under the armament color.

But blocked by the Armament Haki, the impact was not as great as before.

Considering that Ryan is not yet proficient in the use of the power of the fruit, once he truly masters the ability in the future, he will be able to destroy weapons even with armament color.

After the test, both Kuro and Ryan were very excited.

One is curious about the power of the devil fruit, and the other is happy that his own strength has improved greatly.

During the time of testing his abilities, Kuro discovered that the knife wound that had previously inflicted on Ryan was slowly healing and had now formed a scab.

"Ryan, look at the wound on your chest."

Hearing this, Ryan looked down.

"Captain, the wound has healed!"

"Hahaha, it seems that the fruit not only increases your strength, but also greatly improves your body's recovery ability."

"Okay, your main task next is to master and develop the ability of the fruit. Do your best to familiarize yourself with it and master it."

"But you can't give up your daily training, understand?"

"When you can use Armament Haki to entangle it, combined with your platinum aura, then even my Butsuji Soul will not be able to cut it off."

Kuro finished speaking and Ryan nodded quickly to show that he understood.
