Transcended as Lord Buggy

Chapter 147: Hasshoken’s Might

Chapter 147: Hasshoken's Might

The war between Clown Pirates & Kizaru's unit is still not finished. Buggy, Cricket, & Palu still fight their opponents. Their battles are the hardest among everyone's battles.

The power gaps between the Marine officers are quite big. Momonga and Dalmatian are much stronger than the officers below them. The same case applies to Kizaru who is much stronger than Momonga & Dalmatian.

Both Rear Admirals show equal strength and battle powers with Cricket & Palu. Their fights are stagnant and no one gets the upper hand since the beginning. The fights look boring to watch even though they fight with all their powers.

'This is bad, I can't go on like this. We can't fight these guys for too long or the Marine HQ will send reinforcements. That is the most problematic aspect from Marine, there will be no end of them,' thinks Cricket.

Palu thinks the same and they start to exert more power in their battle. They need to win before Marine's reinforcements come. Even though Ruff & Deon are trying to fool the Marine HQ, but it won't fool them forever. It's just a matter of time before they realize it and send reinforcement.

Cricket hasn't used Hasshoken since he started fighting Momonga. Now he starts to use it along with both of his Haki types. His Hasshoken surprises Momonga because it's a famous martial art.

"Hasshoken?! How can you use it? You aren't from Kano Country, after all," says Momonga in surprise.

"Why'd you care on how I can use it? You should care more about this fight," says Cricket as he punches Momonga strongly with Hasshoken.

Momonga gets pushed back by that punch even though he has blocked it with his sword. Cricket's punch has become much stronger since they entered Grandline. It will get even stronger if he uses Hasshoken too.

But Momonga isn't weak enough to get overwhelmed by one punch. As a Rear Admiral, he is considered as one of the Marine's strongest power. So he won't lose easily against strong pirates like the Clowns.

"Your Hasshoken is very strong for someone who stole it from Kano Country," says Momonga as he attacks Cricket.

Cricket blocks Momonga's sword with his haki-coated hand and says, "Stole it? Hah, we never steal it, they gave it to Captain after he beat them in their own game. We got it fair & square."

"Fair? Very laughable. As if pirates like you will play fair & square," says Momonga as he sends another attack.

"Hmph, it's up to you for believing it or not. I just tell you the truth," says Cricket as he dodges the sword before sending an uppercut.

Momonga evades Cricket's punch by tilting his head to the side. Then he blocks Cricket's knee attack that comes right after the uppercut. Both of them start to fight at close range again and exert more power.

Both of them are good at using Observation Haki. So they can read & predict their opponent's attacks and defend them. They haven't been injured since they started to fight because they can defend well.

But Cricket is better at using Armament Haki than Momonga. Most Rear Admirals can use Haki, but they're just proficient at one type. And Momonga is more proficient at Observation Haki. He can use armament though, but it's just the basic colorless armament.

Cricket keeps attacking with his Hasshoken & Armament Haki. While Momonga keeps blocking the attacks with his sword. Their fight is still stagnant, but then it changed when they hear a weak cracking sound.

*crack* They look at the source and see it coming from Momonga's sword. It has a visible small crack that caused that sound. But it also has many thin cracks that they didn't realize.

Momonga widens his eyes and Cricket grins happily. Cricket's strong attacks have caused the sword to crack slowly. It is a high-quality sword because it can survive this long without good Armament coating.

"You have a good sword, but this is the end," says Cricket as he prepares a big attack.

"No, this won't be the end," says Momonga very seriously as he tries to coat his sword with his imperfect Armament that still doesn't have any color.

Momonga keeps trying as Cricket prepares his punch. Cricket then rushes at Momonga with his right hand's fist ready.

"Hasshoken Secret Technique: Coiling Dragon!" says Cricket.

Cricket sends a full-powered punch toward Momonga who tries to block it with his sword. He spins his fist at the last moment before hitting Momonga's sword, which creates an image of a yellow Chinese dragon that coils on his hand. And right before the punch hits Momonga, the sword turns blackish.

'He improves at the last moment, what a guy. But it is too late for this battle,' thinks Cricket.

Cricket's punch hits Momonga's sword and gets stopped for a moment. But then it destroys the sword completely and shatters it into pieces. It continues to move toward Momonga and hits him very strongly.

Momonga can't block the punch and gets hit directly. He flies back and crashes onto trees, destroying them. He stops after 50 meters and is still conscious.

But Cricket chased him and send a finishing punch that he can't block at all. He can't use armament again like before because it's just luck. Momonga faints and the victory finally falls on Cricket.

In another place, Palu is fighting like a brute with Dalmatian who is in his hybrid form. They hit each other with their haki coated Warhammer & Fists. It's like they are competing on who's Armament is the strongest by using it to attack & block.

Palu & Dalmatian doesn't even bother to evade anything and take every attack with their bodies. But Palu has the advantage of being able to use Mantra or Observation Haki while Dalmatian can't use it at all.

Because of that, Palu can use his Armament Haki to block the correct spot every time. He covers the correct spot with minimal size & amount of Armament Haki. It makes him can save more Haki energy because he uses it efficiently.

Meanwhile, Dalmatian needs to cover wider areas because he can't use Observation Haki yet. He needs to guess where Palu will attack and cover a wider area to anticipate if he is wrong.

It makes him spend more Haki energy than Palu. Not only that, but he also gets more damages because he is wrong at guessing the attack spots many times. Palu can predict where he will defend and change the attack many times, so it damages Dalmatian greatly.

Minutes after they started their fight, both sides have started to pant hard. Dalmatian who should have more energy because of his zoan devil fruit is panting hard like Palu. He has too many injuries that his zoan devil fruit's power can't help him again now.

They get ready for a moment before moving at the same time to finish this battle. Palu swings his Warhammer horizontally from his right side, while Dalmatian sends a straight punch. Their attacks meet and cause a big clashing sound. But then ripples are formed from Palu's Warhammer.

"HASSHOKEN!?" shouts Dalmatian in surprise.

"Ho, so you know it. But that won't change anything," says Palu.

Palu exerts all his power and Dalmatian can't hold it anymore. Dalmatian flies back and hits a big boulder, destroying it. He cough a lot of blood and fall to the ground weakly. He looks at Palu in disbelief before fainting.

Palu puts his Warhammer on his shoulder and says, "Phew, Captain & Cricket are right. This Hasshoken is very useful for me. Luckily, I trained it since we entered Grandline. I will start using it more often from now on."

With every officer except Kizaru has been defeated, the war between the pirates & Marines has almost come to an end. The only battle that hasn't finished is Buggy's battle with Kizaru.

But the situation seems to be very bad for the pirates because Kizaru's light sword is stabbing Buggy's left chest and Buggy doesn't move at all.

"It's done," says Kizaru as he lifts Buggy like a skewered meat using his light sword.
