Chapter 583: Fire Blast

Hammer and Needle.

In a way, these two weapons were opposites. Sure, unlike Adam's past First Order, his needle was more like a sword, it could make slashing attacks instead of just stabbing or trying to cut something with only the tip.

If the hammer didn't have a sharp end, then only crushing attacks were possible with this weapon, stabbing and slashing ones were impossible.
