Chapter 33: Fishman Island
Shaking the pain in his fist, Blaize grinned. 'As expected of a Sea Monster, it is strong. If not, it would be too boring!'
"Here I come!" Blaize shouted, 'Soru'
His figure vanished from the resin bubble and appeared above Sea Rhinoceros's head. This move startled Gion and the pirates alike as they knew very well about the devil fruit weakness.
"Did he lost his mind? Leaving the resin-bubble at this moment is sure death!" A pirate screamed. They can't help but show concern since all their lives depend on Blaize.
If he loses, the sea monster will definitely crush their ship. Gion squinted her eyes, but she remained calm as she knows he isn't someone who acts without a plan.
"Heat Smash!"
His hand fired a fist-sized, sharp, compressed air shockwave. It works under the same principle as the Rokushiki's 'Shigan' martial style. Instead of Finger, Blaize uses his fist combined with his devil fruit power.
This technique utilizes his devil fruit powers from within his body so he wasn't affected by the sea. Since the standard weakness won't work on him, he was perfectly alright fighting in the sea.
The fist-shaped phantom struck the Rhino's head, and the shockwave penetrated its thick hide pushing it back. Still, the attack was nowhere enough to tame the monster.
Shaking its head a little, the rhino opened its huge mouth and tried to swallow him whole. But Blaize effortlessly escaped by utilizing 'soru' and disappeared from the original spot.
"What the fu*k? Even such a powerful attack failed to injure the sea monster!" All the pirates exclaimed with their mouths wide-open while
Gion gripped the sword on her waist.
Blaize reappeared behind the Rhino and commented mentally: 'Good! I hope you are strong enough to withstand my next attack.'
Using Soru, his figure flickered around the Rhino, creating a miniature whirlpool. Once his speed reached a certain extent, it began to produce afterimages, confounding the sea monster.
After a few seconds, five afterimages appeared and surrounded the Rhino within the whirlpool. "Take this!"
At the same time, the five afterimages punched. They didn't stop at one but repeated the process. A flurry of punches rained on the Rhinoceros sea monster, battering it to the point it began to shed tears.
Blaize stopped the attacks with a final, heavy blow to its head. With a huge lump on its head, the rhino looked at him with tear-filled eyes.
Blaize returned to his bubble coating and commented: "Good boy! I won't beat you if you listen to my orders."
Saying this, he descended on its head and caressed the rhino's head with his hands affectionately. The Rhino roared a little as if answering to him.
On the ship, the pirates were once again shocked. They all thought, 'He really tamed a Sea Monster!'
Shortly, Blaize returned to the ship and ordered the pirates to chain something to the Rhino's horn so that the ship can be towed.
With the Rhinoceros sea monster towing the ship, it became easy for them to sail underwater. Even so, Blaize couldn't find the Demonbear pirates on the way.
There's a possibility they also used the same method as him. Well...it doesn't matter since he will reach Fishman Island in another hour or so.
He will catch them there.

Though he had already seen it in the anime, Blaize still marveled at the sight of Fishman Island, an island wrapped in a gigantic bubble, illuminated by a sunlight tree eve.
The pirates were dumbstruck by the stunning scenery. Gion was no better as this is her first time visiting Fish-man island.
Marveling for a minute, Blaize ordered the Sea Rhino to take them inside via the Front entrance. Guards of the Fishman island stopped the ship at the entrance and let them pass after enquiring their crew name.
Most of the pirates are violent in nature, the only thing stopping them from acting wildly is the Jolly Roger of Whitebeard pirates painted at the entrance.
Entering Fishman Island, they docked the ship at the port where many other pirate ships are docked. Unfortunately, Blaize and Gion failed to spot the ship of Demonbear pirates even after searching the entire dock area.
"Where did they go?" Blaize muttered.
"They may have sailed to a different port. Sengoku-san already said the crew captain is from the new world, it's not surprising that he's familiar with the different Fishman island regions." Gion commented.
As for Bullseye pirates, they decided to return to their homeland after touring Fishman Island once, as they won't get another opportunity to visit this place. Blaize has no qualms about them, he left the port along with Gion.
Left with no choice, Blaize and Gion decided to find the Demonbear pirates by themself. After probing a few passersby, they found the nearest town to them is Coral Hill.
Blaize knew about this town as it's famous for the Mermaid Cafe. Since Shyarly is a child now, he doesn't know whether there are other cafes.
As soon as they entered the town, Blaize noticed the entire place is filled with Fishmen of various races. True, their appearance differs but apart from that, he couldn't see anything unusual.
Like any other normal town, it was lively with happy residents. It's just some pirates make trouble occasionally, but the Fishman guards will take care of them.
"I don't know why humans discriminate against the Fishman race, they look all the same to me," Gion spoke as she had seen things in Sabaody.
"Humans fear the unknown and consider themself as a superior race, so they will naturally look down on other races," Blaize replied with a profound look.
Fish-man Island's situation is a tragic one if possible he wants to stop things that may happen in the future. For example, Queen's death, Hody jones's rise, and Fisher Tiger's death.
Especially Fisher Tiger, he admires him for scaling the Red Line and liberating the Celestial Dragons slaves from Mary Geoise.
Since Fishman Island is so huge, Blaize and Gion couldn't find the trace of Demonbear pirates and where they disappeared. After an hour of search, Blaize finally decided to cease his hunt for a while.
"Gion, I heard the foods in Fishman Island are so good, why don't we fill our stomach before searching again?" Blaize said licking his lips, sniffing a luscious aroma wafting from a nearby restaurant.
Gion instantly got angry, "Blaize-kun, we came here to capture a pirate crew, not to enjoy a vacation."
As for Blaize, he already disappeared from his original position and directly entered the restaurant before them. After transmigrating to One Piece, his desire to enjoy different kinds of food reached a whole new level.
Even with his firm willpower, he couldn't fight the appetite.
