Chapter 50 Armament Haki Externalization
Thinking of this, Enni's relaxed expression suddenly hardened. He turned to look at Jinbe beside him, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes, and then said, "Thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Jinbe's lips curled into a faint smile: "This is simply a common flaw among all geniuses... Back in my youth, I made a similar mistake. Hahahaha..."
A hearty laugh echoed in the air, carrying with it the open-mindedness and composure that comes with the passage of time.
Upon hearing this, Enni's heart skipped a beat, and he chuckled softly. But he quickly suppressed his smile, refocusing his gaze on Jinbe, and asked solemnly, "Then, may I try taking another move from you?"
Jinbe was slightly taken aback, but quickly regained his composure. His expression became slightly more serious as he slowly nodded and said, "Alright! Bring it on, I'll take it."
Aini took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling with the rhythm of his breathing. The relaxed expression on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented seriousness.
Immediately afterwards, he gripped the hilt of the Sandai Kitetsu at his waist with both hands and carefully sheathed it. Then, he slightly bent his knees, leaned forward, and assumed a standard yet tense drawing stance.
In the blink of an eye, ghostly energy surged forth from the Sandai Kitetsu once more, and then that eerie ghostly energy flooded his pupils like a tide.
At this moment, he was like a demon emerging from hell.
In an instant, a powerful force erupted from Aini's body. He pushed off the ground with both feet and shot out like an arrow. His speed was astonishing; he was like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky, reaching the front of the plane in the blink of an eye.
Facing the aggressive Enni, Jinbe showed no fear. He roared, his right arm muscles tensed, and his fist, as big as a casserole dish, swung out with overwhelming force, aiming straight for Enni's face.
However, at the crucial moment when the two were about to clash head-on, Aini's figure suddenly vanished without a trace, like a ghost.
Just as Jinbe was in shock.
Enni appeared to his left without him noticing. Before Jinbe could react, another figure flashed past on his right—it was Enni again. Then, behind him, above him… Enni's figure appeared in every direction. In an instant, there were nine Ennis on the field!
Indeed, nine identical Ennis surrounded Jinbe. Although only one of these nine Ennis was the true body, the other eight were illusions formed from sharp sword intent.
However, these phantoms are not only lifelike, but their movements and auras are also exactly the same as the real ones, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.
Seeing such a bizarre scene, Jinbe was also startled, but being a seasoned veteran, he quickly calmed down. He stared intently at the nine Ennis around him, trying to find a flaw in their strategy.
"interesting……"
Jinbe couldn't help but praise him, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis coming his way.
In the blink of an eye, Jinbe had no time to think and immediately unleashed his signature technique—Fishman Karate: Karakusa Tile Punch! He stood firmly in a horse stance, clenched his fists, and then threw a powerful straight punch forward with lightning speed.
As the punch was thrown, an invisible shockwave spread outwards from Jinbe, forming a 360° all-around protective circle.
This Karakusa Tile Punch is one of the signature techniques of Fishman Karate. It can be used not only to attack enemies but also as a powerful defensive measure. Once activated, attacks from any direction will be blocked or repelled by the shockwave, making it an excellent move that combines offense and defense.
"Bang……"
With a deafening roar, Aini was sent flying like a cannonball. The powerful impact seemed to tear the air around him apart, creating a visible shockwave. His eight clones vanished instantly, leaving only his true form standing alone.
Enni tumbled rapidly through the air, but amazingly, he adjusted his posture with the agility of a gymnast and landed steadily on the ground. After regaining his footing, he looked up at Jinbe again, his eyes now filled with astonishment.
You see, if that force had just been an ordinary shockwave, it wouldn't have just repelled him; with his strength and swordsmanship, he was confident he could have easily severed it. But now, the reality is quite different...
After a brief moment of deep thought, Aini finally spoke up: "Could this be the external manifestation of Armament Haki?"
Upon hearing this, Jinbe nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face: "Haha, that's right, it's the technique of releasing Armament Haki... These young people nowadays are all exceptionally talented and powerful. If I didn't master some formidable techniques, I'm afraid I would really have a hard time dealing with you rising stars!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jinbe gave Enni a deep look, then said slowly, "Let's end it here for today! Through our exchange just now, I have a general idea of your strength. And that's enough to give them a satisfactory explanation..."
After speaking, Jinbe turned and walked away, his figure gradually disappearing into the distance on the horizon.
Enni stood quietly, watching Jinbe leave. Only after Jinbe had completely disappeared from sight did he turn and walk towards his ship.
At the same time, he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and the injuries he had sustained in the battle with Jinbe were healing at an astonishing speed.
At this moment, Enni couldn't help but exclaim, "The regenerative ability of this Zoan-type Devil Fruit is simply too overpowered!"
Just now, although I only suffered some minor injuries, such injuries are actually not serious. They have almost no effect on a person!
However, even such a small wound usually takes several days to fully heal.
Just like if we accidentally cut a small piece of skin on our hand, even if the wound is small, it will still take a few days to heal completely.
However, incredibly, it hasn't been that long!
The injured area had miraculously recovered to its original state, as if it had never been injured at all.
Once you experience this amazing phenomenon, it's not hard to understand why those with Zoan-type abilities are all as resilient as cockroaches.
