42. The natural fruit is the place where it is laid
He stands gracefully like a dancer in the dark.
In the face of Smoker's offensive, there was no panic.
Instead, the latter heard a faint laugh.
"I miss it so much..."
Hao sighed.
Smoker's ability reminded him of the soul ghost mist he had also released when he was in the hunter world.
"Caught me?"
However, Hao's tone quickly changed, "I'm waiting for you." ”
"Lie down for me!"
In the smoke ahead, Smoker's grim face was conjured, and ten waving hands were revealed.
Sou!
The weapon made by the stone of the sea tower slashed through the air, and its strength and speed were so great that it made a whining sound, but it was retreated and dodged.
Almost as soon as the attack missed, the 'Smog' in front of him turned into wisps of white gas and disappeared.
And at the same time, it condensed from behind him.
Smoker's outstretched hand was about to press on his hat.
Bang!
At the last moment, Hazy suddenly turned around, and his bent elbow shot out like a cannonball, but only the smoke was blasted.
"This touch..."
Hazy looked at his fist and thought it was very interesting.
In his judgment, this moment was a must.
That is, if Smoker were an entity, he would definitely be injured.
"Immune to all physical attacks?"
Hazy muttered.
When I looked up, I found that there was a vast white area around me, and I couldn't find the location of the target with the naked eye.
In the perception of the soul, Smoker's soul is scattered like ions, and there is a certain connection between them.
It was as if the individual soul had become one with the smoke.
Devil Fruits, there is a 'Soul Inheritance'... This theory, if Hao remembers correctly, was mentioned by the Five Old Stars in the original book, and it seems that it also belongs to the 'animal Devil Fruit' is the most obvious. But looking at it now, it seems that there is also a saying about the fruits of nature...
The smoke is getting thicker and thicker, and it has completely engulfed the space.
Smoker was clearly activating the fruit ability, trying to make him unable to breathe, thus reducing his bodily functions.
Hold your breath and start running the internal breath cycle.
"White vines."
Suddenly, Hazy heard a cold snort.
Several solidified chains of smoke were like long snakes entwined around them.
Hao immediately used his footwork and body skills, and his flexible and vigorous figure shocked Smoker in the dark.
Because he controls the 'chains' formed by the smoke, he has blocked all angles from the front, back, left and right, but in the space that is compressed to the limit, Hao can still be as flexible as a fish entering the sea, and follows the sound source, and appears in front of his body in an instant.
Rumble!
Another punch was struck, and the smoke exploded, and along with it, Smoker's vague elemental incarnation.
"See?"
Smoker froze.
In the thick smoke, the other party should have lost his vision long ago, and it is impossible to find his position... The only thing he could think of with this kind of power was to see and hear.
"White Fist!"
He then counterattacked, his arms extending with the smoke for a long distance.
It's like two rockets that are constantly circling and galloping, being remotely controlled, hitting the door of the hazy face.
And the body of the cigar in his mouth also swept towards the obscurity through the ability 'White Wind'.
But soon, Smoker felt the pressure.
All his attacks were easily dodged, and the opponent's swaying body and coordination were simply inhuman! Even if he thinks he has done his best to attack, he just can't hit the opponent. It was as if the man had no foresight of all his lines of attack and thoughts.
And in the process of grappling, he was hit by Hazy's punches and kicks again and again.
The flesh was frequently blown up into smoke.
A few minutes later, after being blasted apart by Hazy's fist again, Smoker flew into the air like a jet, and only then did Hazy see that all around him had been crushed by a wall of white smoke.
Smoker's fruit ability, that is, the smoke of nature, can be solidified, forming a physical-like texture, not ethereal. The four high walls were all moving closer and closer to him, and the void above his head was also filled with smoke and began to press down.
"Sure enough... It's pretty impressive. ”
Hao couldn't help but praise it.
Smoker uses hand-to-hand combat to create confusion without giving him a chance to move.
"It's too late to regret it now... Rogue Town is not a place where you can come and go whenever you want. In the brief moment when the smoke above his head shrank, he saw Smoker's cold pupils floating in the air, and said in a tone that he was sure of victory.
As soon as the words fell, there was a deafening movement from the white smoke that enveloped the haze.
It was as if the dynamite had been detonated.
The wall of fog was slammed into a hole.
Instantly, a faint shadow burst out of it and escaped.
He increased the force of his punches and performed a martial art, Divine Fist.
Although the smoke solidification will have a certain offensive and defensive power, it is okay to deal with some small pirates, and it is impossible to trap him with this... Because Smoke's smoke solidification also has a force limit. His natural fruits, both in terms of development and natural attributes, are much worse than those of the three admirals.
Of course, it is mainly related to Smoker's own strength at the moment.
After withdrawing out, Hao slowly straightened his back, put his hands in his pockets, and looked like he didn't want to fight anymore.
"The ability of natural fruit is really very dependent... In the absence of domineering to squander, people like you are almost inherently invincible. Hazy commented with a smile.
After speaking, he began to retreat, obviously wanting to run.
With his move, Smoker, who was still in the air a second ago, flashed to Hazy's side in an instant.
The speed is faster than his fruit ability, the White Wind!
Bang!
The arm in his trouser pocket suddenly waved, and his five fingers were like sharp knives, trying to tear Smoker's 'flesh' apart.
It's going to be elementalized anyway.
But... His attack this time fell on Smoker, but his fingers seemed to touch a hard iron plate.
There was a screeching grinding sound.
"Huh?"
"Navy Six, Shaved... And, the iron block! ”
Hazy saw that it was greasy.
The previous series of elementalizations easily made Hao have a preconceived notion that the other party would still use this ability to 'retreat'.
But obviously, this is also a misunderstanding that Smoker deliberately created!
It was such a fleeting opportunity, and Smoker's ten hands were already facing the door of the hazy face.
The blow was so powerful that it seemed to pierce the head.
Fruit abilities aside, Smoker's combat experience, including physical strength, is amazing... Although the strength of flesh and blood is not as good as that of Lao G, it is stronger than the current Hao.
"Give me an honest acceptance of sanctions and judgment!"
Smoker said coldly.
He felt... If you take your hand by surprise, you will definitely be able to tilt the scales of victory.
Syllable.
However, with a dull thudding sound, the tip of the ten hands was blocked by the palm of his other hand before it could reach Hazy's face.
Blood flowed from Hazy's palm, and although he was injured, he defused the blow.
This caused Smoker's pupils to shrink.
Can even this be stopped?
Even if you can predict the attack, there must be a limit, right?
He launched the Navy Six Style Shave, approaching in an instant, barely giving the other party time to think... How can you still block?
Hazy's hand grabbed one end of Ten Hands, and as he wrestled with Smoker, the muscles in his arms bulging and slowly pushing Ten Hands to the side.
Smoker grimaced and tried to regain control of his weapon.
"It's too careless... Possessing the natural fruit is your absolute advantage in the face of me, and you actually took the initiative to give up..."
But what Smoker saw was a pair of playful eyes under the brim of his hat.
With the hazy teasing, the palm that was clasped on Smoker's body suddenly slapped lightly.
Slammed into Smoker's chest.
"Wow!"
In an instant, Smoker's face was stunned, and he trembled like an electric shock, opened his mouth, and spurted blood uncontrollably.
"I'm hurt?"
His eyes darkened in disbelief.
