Chapter 90: Just for a Drop of Blood?
Yes, push the limits!
In that moment, Darren suddenly felt his strength, speed, and physique, which had been stagnant for a long time, clearly rising at a speed he had never seen before.
Physique: 62.251 (+0.08, +0.05, +0.06...)
Strength: 59.311 (+0.05, +0.04, +0.03...)
Speed: 61.623 (+0.04, +0.06, +0.03...)
The most obvious improvement was in his speed. After breaking through the 60-point mark, his speed and instant bursts underwent a qualitative change. He could move over short distances at high speed from time to time.
If this continued, in less than a few minutes, Darren would be able to learn the "Shave" of Marine Six Styles from both the attribute gains and his fight with Byrnndi Waldo.
Thinking this way, Darren simulated and copied Byrnndi Waldo's power-generating technique in his mind. With his increased magnetic field perception, every time Waldo performed "Shave," the muscle contractions, movement changes, and breath control were clearly presented to Darren.
"Die, Marine brat! Don't think about delaying time!" Byrnndi Waldo was furious. With a "whoosh," he appeared above Darren's head and delivered a fierce kick intended to crush the Marine Colonel's skull.
The wind blew threateningly, and the air burst into sharp explosions under Waldo's kick. Darren's eyes widened.
Whoosh!
Snow on the ground suddenly rolled up and flew. An unbelievable astonishment flashed in the depths of Byrnndi Waldo's pupils.
Boom!
As one foot came down, smoke and snow roared like a dragon, and the earth let out an overwhelmed whine. The Marine kid had disappeared!
In Byrnndi Waldo's heart, there was a stormy sea.
Shave!
The Marine kid had used Marine Six Styles' Shave!
"How can it be?" Byrnndi Waldo exclaimed in disbelief.
After their previous fights, he was very clear about the level of combat power of Darren, the so-called North Blue admiral. Darren had a non-human powerful physique, superhuman nerve response and perception, and that strange ability to control magnetic fields.
This was impressive but still not enough to face a big pirate like Waldo. If it weren't for Darren's exaggerated physical strength, he would have died long ago.
But now, in less than two minutes, Darren had actually "stolen" the "Shave" technique from Marine Six Styles?
No.
Byrnndi Waldo shook his head sullenly. He looked at the black-haired Marine who reappeared more than ten meters away, panting and bleeding, with killing intent surging in his eyes.
Not just Shave, but in his observation and Haki perception, Darren's speed, strength, and reaction were all visibly improving.
Byrnndi Waldo gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tighter. This Marine brat was using him to assist in his training!
"Who do you think you are facing?"
Anger filled his bloodshot eyes. Byrnndi Waldo roared, bursting out at an even faster speed, and appeared in front of Darren instantly.
"More More, 100 times faster! Die, Marine brat!"
Waldo's fist, wrapped with Armament Haki, showed the ultimate hardness and contained terrifying explosive power, causing ripples in the surrounding void.
Darren's pupils shrank. Too fast!
This speed was even ten times faster than Marine Six Styles. This punch was ferocious, strict, fierce, and terrifying.
He couldn't dodge!
Even though his magnetic field perception predicted Byrnndi Waldo's movement, the instantaneous explosive power transformed by this speed exceeded Darren's nerve response level at this time.
"This is... the smell of death!"
Darren gritted his teeth and smiled. He ignored Byrnndi Waldo's fist aiming for his chest and threw a punch of his own.
The space between them vanished. Like two roaring tigers charging at each other, their fists acted as sharp fangs, ready to tear apart their prey.
Boom! Boom!
Their fists collided.
Crackling...
Darren's chest sank with a bone-cracking sound that made the scalp tingle. Pain made him gasp, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned pale.
His punch landed on Byrnndi Waldo's cheek, leaving a bruise and a trickle of blood.
Boom!
The second explosion of Armament Haki sent Darren flying backward for hundreds of meters. He crashed into a snow-covered mountain.
A dull roar came from the mountain, and snow, like cascading waterfalls, tumbled down, raising waves as high as hundreds of meters.
"After spending so much energy, I almost lost my life—just for a drop of blood?"
Byrnndi Waldo walked toward the collapsed mountain, wiped the corner of his mouth, and looked at the blood on his thumb with a sneer.
On the rock face of the mountain, Darren lay in a huge pit, blood gushing from his mouth and nose.
"For me, that's enough."
The Marine Colonel's uniform was in tatters. His muscles seemed to ripple, and blood flowed from his mouth and nose. His eyes were full of spirited and unruly fighting spirit, with an indescribable joy and fierceness.
"The legendary great pirate, 'World Destroyer' Byrnndi Waldo, was injured by a kid who didn't master Haki... Hahahaha!"
Darren laughed heartily, showing blood-stained teeth.
Byrnndi Waldo, instead of getting angry at Darren's taunt, was silent for a moment.
"I have to admit, Darren, a lunatic like you... This is the first time I've seen it on this sea."
He looked at the young Marine who was covered in bruises, and for the first time showed seriousness and acknowledgment.
"In time, you will definitely stand at the peak of this sea. But unfortunately…"
Byrnndi Waldo shot forward like a cannonball toward Darren.
"Today you will die in my hands!"
The fist wrapped in Haki enlarged before Darren's eyes. But Darren's expression remained calm, his smile unchanged.
"This is not necessarily the case. The fastest speed on this sea is on our Marine side."
Suddenly—
A golden beam of light traveled through the void at an unimaginably fast speed. Countless photons gathered to form a foot wearing a white leather shoe, blocking Byrnndi Waldo's punch.
Boom!
A majestic air wave spread, lifting a wide cloak of justice.
"It was horrible... you almost killed our Colonel Darren."
Light particles condensed from that foot, forming legs, a waist, a neck, and finally a face wearing exaggerated toad sunglasses.
Borsolino looked back at Darren with a smile.
"If you die here, Admiral Sengoku will trouble me."
Darren shrugged and smiled.
"I thought you would be late at the speed of light too... Rear Admiral Borsolino ."
