Black Flash
"I don't have an attack strong enough to kill this monkey... Ugh," Toshiro muttered through gritted teeth, struggling to use his Reverse Cursed Technique to heal his destroyed left arm. His cursed energy output was at its lowest, leaving him vulnerable and frustrated. He felt a wave of exhaustion wash over him, his normally sharp focus wavering. "I need to figure out something, fast."
Dorry, his face contorted with pure, unbridled rage, stood up and charged at Toshiro with a roar, his massive fist aimed to crush his opponent with all his might. The ground trembled under the force of his assault, a testament to his immense strength and fury.
Despite his fatigue, Toshiro activated his Observation Haki. Though his energy was depleted, his physical strength and instincts remained sharp. With a burst of speed, he dodged Dorry's powerful punch, the air whistling past his ear from the close call. In a fluid motion, he leapt onto Dorry's arm, running along its length with agility and precision. His goal was clear—reach Dorry's head and deliver a decisive blow.
As he closed the distance, Toshiro mustered all his remaining strength. His muscles coiled like springs, and with every ounce of power he had left, he punched Dorry's head. To Toshiro's complete astonishment and exhilaration, black sparks erupted from the point of impact, crackling with an intensity he had never felt before.
His eyes widened in shock and delight as he realized what was happening. "BLACK FLASH!" he screamed, his voice echoing with a mix of triumph and amusement. Black and red sparks, like lightning, surged from his fist, channeling an extraordinary amount of destructive energy into his punch. The impact was devastating.
Dorry staggered, the force of the blow reverberating through his massive frame. Toshiro's heart pounded in his chest, a wild grin spreading across his face. He had done it—he had awakened his Haki in the heat of battle, and the power coursing through him was beyond anything he had ever imagined.
"I'm in the Zone, huh?" Toshiro said with a smile, exhilaration coursing through his veins. "My output is returning slowly too, along with my stamina. What a weird effect of the Black Flash." He could feel the changes in his body, his energy replenishing, his senses sharpening.
Suddenly, a massive shadow loomed over Toshiro, darkening the ground where he stood. He looked up just in time to see a huge axe descending upon him with terrifying speed and force. His eyes widened in shock as he recognized the attacker—it was Brogy, Dorry's friend and fellow giant.
Instinctively, Toshiro activated his Observation Haki once more, his body moving with a newfound agility. He leapt backward, narrowly avoiding the deadly swing of the axe. The ground where he had been standing exploded in a shower of dirt and debris, testament to the immense power behind Brogy's strike.
"Deadass?" Toshiro said, but there was no time to finish the thought. Brogy's eyes were filled with fury, clearly enraged by the lies Toshiro had told earlier.
"You dare deceive us and insult our honor?" Brogy roared, his voice booming like thunder. "You will pay for your treachery, human!"
Dorry, sensing his friend's arrival, somehow woke from his unconscious state. Despite the severe injuries he had sustained—a gaping hole in his cheek and the loss of an eye—he rose as if nothing had happened, his resolve unbroken.
Toshiro watched with a mixture of awe and frustration as Dorry stood tall once more. "Is it 2 vs 1 now?" Toshiro muttered, wiping the dirt from his tattered clothes. "Did I inherit the 'Jumpjutsu' effect too because of the fruit too?"
He felt the weight of the situation pressing down on him. Both giants were back on their feet, their fury directed solely at him. But this was what he had wanted—a fight that would push him to his limits.
"Let's try to land another Black Flash to guarantee a win, but it's purely based on luck," Toshiro said to himself as he raised his middle finger towards the giants and sent out a Dismantle attack. The slashing attack was weaker than usual, barely grazing the giants.
"Come at me, monkeys! I don't understand how you don't puke when you see yourselves in the mirror," he taunted, his voice flat and cold.
The giants roared in anger, their combined wrath fueling their attacks. Brogy's massive axe swung down with terrifying force while Dorry charged, his fists ready to crush Toshiro.
Toshiro's heart raced. He needed to stay focused. With his Observation Haki, he anticipated Brogy's axe swing and dodged to the side, the blade slicing through the air where he had stood. Using the momentum of his dodge, Toshiro leapt towards Dorry, his mind set on landing another Black Flash.
As he closed in on Dorry, Toshiro quickly sent two Dismantle attacks towards Dorry's eyes, the slashing energy aiming to blind the giant. The attacks connected, causing Dorry to roar in pain and momentarily halt his advance. Seizing the opportunity, Toshiro channeled all his strength into a punch aimed at Dorry's forehead.
However, this time, the punch did not result in a Black Flash. The impact was solid, but not as devastating as he had hoped. Dorry staggered but did not fall.
Toshiro gritted his teeth, his mind racing. "I need something to change the way of the battle," he thought, his expression cold and determined. He had to push himself further, beyond his limits.
Standing on Dorry's head, Toshiro tried to think of his next move. In a moment of desperation, he started making hand signs. "With this treasure, I summon—oops, wrong technique," he muttered to himself, realizing that he was attempting to summon Mahoraga, a technique that wasn't his. The absurdity of the moment was almost comical.
Dorry, taking advantage of Toshiro's brief lapse, swatted at him with a massive hand. Toshiro barely managed to dodge, his mind snapping back to the reality of the fight. He knew he couldn't afford any more mistakes.
Toshiro fell against a tree, instantly cutting it with Dismantle and hurling the massive trunk at Brogy. The giant was momentarily distracted by the flying tree, giving Toshiro the opening he needed. He charged at Brogy's leg, attempting to cut it with his Cleave technique, but his output was still low.
Determined to make an impact, Toshiro started jumping around Brogy, sending out Dismantle attacks as rapidly as he could. The slashing energy cut into Brogy's body, targeting vulnerable spots that could slow him down or cause severe blood loss. Each attack was calculated, aiming for joints, arteries, and other weak points.
Brogy roared in pain and anger, swinging his axe wildly to fend off Toshiro's relentless assault. Toshiro continued his barrage, his movements fueled by sheer willpower and desperation. He knew he had to keep pressing the attack, to push through the fatigue and pain.
With each Dismantle, Toshiro could see Brogy weakening. Blood poured from the giant's wounds, his movements growing sluggish. Sensing an opportunity, Toshiro focused all his remaining energy for one final assault. He leapt high into the air, positioning himself directly above Brogy.
"Black Flash!" Toshiro screamed, channeling everything he had into his fist. The black and red sparks ignited once more, the energy crackling around his hand. He brought his fist down with all his might, aiming for Brogy's head.
The impact was cataclysmic, the force of the Black Flash sending shockwaves through Brogy's massive frame. The giant's eyes widened in shock and pain as he staggered, then fell to the ground with a thunderous crash.
Toshiro landed, panting heavily, his body trembling from the exertion. But he could feel the surge of energy coursing through him, his stamina and power returning. He turned to face Dorry, who was struggling to rise from his previous injuries.
With renewed strength, Toshiro raised his hand once more, summoning Dismantle with a fierce determination. The slashing energy surged forward, cutting through Dorry's defenses like a hot knife through butter, leaving deep and jagged gashes in its wake. Dorry staggered back, roaring in pain as blood dripped from his wounds.
Not wasting a moment, Toshiro swiftly followed up with Cleave. His mind focused and honed from the intensity of battle, he manually adjusted the attack, directing the slashing energy to maximize its effectiveness against Dorry's toughness. The energy tore through the giant with unrelenting force, bringing him to his knees.
The battlefield fell silent save for the heavy breathing of Toshiro amidst the wreckage. His expression remained emotionless, a stark contrast to the victory he had just achieved.
