#173 - Chapter 173 I'm Not Enough Yet

"Talk is cheap!"

Charlotte Oven wasted no more words.

As soon as he finished speaking, scorching heat surged from his entire body, distorting the surrounding air.

He sneered and said:

"I'm a High-Heat Man who ate the Heat-Heat Fruit. Prepare to face the wrath of the Big Mom Pirates!"

He suddenly raised his naginata, leaping into the air with intense heat waves, cleaving down at Jin-An.

The heat seemed to incinerate everything, and the surrounding air was filled with a burning atmosphere, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Charlotte Oven's subordinates felt the high temperature emanating from him and couldn't help but exclaim:

"Here it comes!"

"No one dares to take Oven's heat head-on except for Katakuri."

Their eyes revealed a look of awe and anticipation, filled with trust in Oven's strength.

At this moment, Jin-An remained fearless.

Without dodging or evading, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, his stance firm and steady.

He took a deep breath, casually gathering his strength into his right fist, directly facing Charlotte Oven's naginata.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Jin-An's fist and Oven's naginata collided fiercely in the air.

A massive shockwave spread out, causing the surrounding people to retreat a few steps involuntarily.

The air was filled with intense shockwaves, and the ground trembled slightly due to the fierce clash.

Jin-An met Charlotte Oven's high-temperature attack without yielding.

His fist and naginata were locked in a stalemate in the air, forming an invisible barrier that blocked Oven's scorching blade.

Two enormous forces collided at this moment, neither giving way, and neither could easily gain the upper hand.

A trace of surprise and anger flashed in Charlotte Oven's eyes.

He had not expected Jin-An to be so powerful, able to withstand his full-force attack without retreating.

"Not bad!"

"But it's not enough!"

He roared, trying to increase his strength and completely crush Jin-An.

However, Jin-An remained calm and composed, a faint light flickering on his fist, and he pushed forward slightly with force.

His fist suddenly thrust forward, colliding with Oven's naginata again.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the sound of violent collisions and scorching flames in the air.

Finally, with a muffled explosion, Charlotte Oven was knocked back, his naginata was shaken off, and he was forced to retreat several steps.

Jin-An stood still, a trace of residual heat remaining on his fist. He stared coldly at Oven, his expression unwavering with calmness and confidence.

"Is this the power of your Heat-Heat Fruit?"

His voice was low, looking at his fist. The other party failed to leave even a single mark.

Charlotte Oven wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness, but he had to admit the strength of the opponent in front of him.

"Don't get too cocky, Jin-An, this is just the beginning!"

Oven said through gritted teeth, gripping his naginata tightly again, preparing to launch another attack.

Jin-An remained unmoved, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, ready to meet the enemy's next wave of attacks.

The others saw Charlotte Oven's disadvantage.

Expressions of shock and anger appeared on their faces.

They exchanged glances, and without hesitation, they drew their weapons and launched an attack on Jin-An together.

Countless blades flashed in the sunlight, everyone displaying their abilities, a faint murderous aura permeating the sky, and the entire square boiled over.

Thousands of pirates converged into a surging torrent, roaring as they charged towards Jin-An, vowing to drown him in this sea of people.

Such a spectacular scene caused the residents of the town, even those far away, to change color.

The scene of thousands of people besieging him was so breathtaking on this land.

Jin-An stood in place, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes. He smiled faintly,

"Are you all attacking together?"

Then, he shrugged, and the corners of his mouth rose, revealing a disdainful smile:

"Interesting."

Without fear, Jin-An charged directly into the thousands of pirates.

His figure was like a cannonball, instantly rushing into the enemy ranks.

What followed was a clash of fists and blades, explosive energy waves scattered, dust flew, and the air was filled with a strong fighting atmosphere.

Jin-An's movements were swift and precise, every fist and every kick carrying devastating power.

He swung his fist, the force of the wind whistling, and a pirate was punched away, crashing heavily to the ground, with no strength to stand up again.

Then, he swiftly dodged the attacks of several assassins, and kicked them away, knocking down the enemies behind them.

Faced with the siege of thousands of people, he seemed to be handling it with ease, his figure flickering like a ghost.

Jin-An constantly changed his shape, dodging attacks coming from all directions, while counterattacking with fatal blows.

Each time his fists and feet landed, it was accompanied by screams, and enemies were knocked away.

Charlotte Oven got up from the ground, looked at the scene in front of him, and his face was livid.

Unwilling, he roared and picked up his naginata again, rushing to the front line.

Oven's high temperature broke out again, his naginata turned into a fire dragon, and went straight to Jin-An.

A cold light flashed in Jin-An's eyes, he quickly turned around and met Oven's attack.

Fists and naginata collided again, sparks flew, and hot air swept around again.

But this time, Jin-An did not give in, but took the initiative to attack, he punched out one punch after another, the speed was as fast as lightning.

Oven was overwhelmed by Jin-An's fierce offensive, his naginata kept retreating, and Jin-An's fists gradually approached, and finally in a burst, Oven's naginata was beaten away, the whole person was shaken back a few meters by the huge impact, fell heavily to the ground, and spurted blood from his mouth.

The surrounding pirates were even more horrified when they saw this, but their offensive did not stop.

They knew that if they didn't knock Jin-An down, all of them might be buried here today.

Therefore, they tried their best to fight against Jin-An tenaciously.

However, Jin-An was still calm and unhurried, he was like an indestructible battle machine, traveling among thousands of enemies.

His figure was as fast as wind and electricity, and every shot took away the combat power of several enemies. The sound of falling gradually sounded on the field, and the enemies fell to the ground like mowing wheat.

As time went by, the number of thousands of pirates gradually decreased, and Jin-An was still calm and relaxed, without a trace of fatigue.

Every punch and every kick of his carried irresistible power, and the battlefield became his solo dance. The surrounding enemies could no longer do anything to him.

Finally, there were only a few scattered pirates left on the battlefield surrounding him.

Their bodies trembled, and their eyes were full of fear and despair.

Jin-An glanced at them coldly, stepped forward, and the powerful aura made them kneel on the ground involuntarily, without any intention of resisting.

This thrilling battle came to an end with Jin-An's overwhelming victory. He stood in the center of the battlefield, his figure as tall as a mountain, like the arrival of a god of war.

The silence after the end of the battle echoed in the air, only the wind blowing, bringing a bit of coolness, indicating that the remaining power of all this had not dissipated.

Jin-An slowly withdrew his fist, raised his head and looked into the distance, his eyes flashing with endless fighting spirit.

The pirates of the new era, in the face of his power, can only surrender.

He said softly: "This is the result today."

The voice was full of unparalleled confidence and domineering, making everything on this battlefield seem so incredible.

"The rest of you, come at me together."

"I'm not satisfied yet..."
