One Piece: Nobody knows Devil Fruits better than me.

Chapter 50 Fishman Karate, do you even know what it is?

In the reflection of Hanafuda's suddenly contracting vertical pupils.

Roy's fist suddenly shot out.

The familiar fluctuations erupted once again.

But Roy's fist was not aimed at the Hanafuda ship, but at the sea below!
"Buzz!"

A surge of cold air erupted, and the chill began to spread.

"Click!" "Click!" "Click!"

The surging ocean currents came to a standstill at this moment.

Fish and shrimp swimming in the water are frozen in the sea at this moment.

Even the wind seemed to carry ice crystals, and the moisture in the air condensed into frost.

The sea was parted as always, but this time the waves did not fall, but instead turned into huge ice walls.

Yes.

After this punch was thrown, the sea around the 'Giant Dinosaur Fleet' was completely frozen!

"Aokiji's ability? No, not exactly the same. What is that fluctuation?"

Hanafuda, seeing this scene, naturally thought of the general 'Aokiji' immediately.

But then he shook his head—he had never heard of the Aokiji's technique in the glow and shockwave from Roy's punch.

But clearly, Hanafuda didn't have time to think about it at that moment.

"boom!"

Because the 'Tyrannosaurus Rex' beneath his feet had clearly stopped moving forward.

Or to be more precise—it's not just this one ship.

At this moment, the entire 'giant dinosaur fleet' was frozen on the sea surface by this punch.

But that's precisely the problem.
"That punch was powerful enough to destroy any ship, so why didn't he do it?"

Hanafuda murmured this question to himself.

If it were any other navy, he could certainly find a suitable reason—such as the other party not wanting to offend him, a Shichibukai, or being wary of his power and the 'Beasts' Kaido behind him.

But now, Hanafuda knows.
None of these reasons hold water.

Because he could see the look in the eyes of the navy man in front of him.

What kind of look is that?
Indifferent, calm, and resolute, without the slightest hint of retreat or hesitation—that was not a look of intent to back down!

And this is indeed the case.

In the very next instant, Hanafuda saw Roy move again.

He raised his hand again.

The difference is that this time he raised his right fist!
"Buzz!"

The golden ripples flowed once more, but this time, crimson appeared within them!

That's the color of high temperature.

And within Roy's arm, something red and hot seemed to be flowing, making his arm appear red.

"Flame Wave Fist: Boil the Sea!"

"Roar!"

At that moment, Hanafuda's expression suddenly changed.

"Everyone, abandon ship immediately!"

He let out a low growl, almost like a wild beast.

As a top-tier Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, he naturally possesses unparalleled beastly instincts.

At that moment, his instincts told him that this attack was extremely dangerous!

at the same time
On the distant sea.

"bake!"

The flames inside the stern of the Spedil gradually died down.

"Hahaha."

Sweat beaded on his skin as he gasped for breath, kneeling on the ground. "Damn it... that injury from earlier..."

Just as Hanafuda had said before.

Propelling the Spartil forward with high-intensity use was also a very strenuous task for him.

"Ace, take a break!"

"Captain Ace, are you alright?"

Seeing this, Deus and some of the able-bodied crew members struggled to their feet.

"I am fine."

Ace waved his hand, took a bottle of water and drank it, then said, "Ha, they didn't chase after us, did they?"

In the process of using his ability to escape, he naturally had no time to worry about anything else.

"No. Rather, the situation over there is a bit strange."

When this was mentioned, Deus's expression became somewhat subtle.

"strangeness?"

Upon hearing this, Ace also looked at the sea behind him in confusion.

They were now too far away to see clearly—they could only make out a few small boats shaped like katakana dotted sails.
"The sea is frozen?"

Ace was stunned as he stared at the frozen sea surface that remained in its surging motion.

"It's not a skill related to Hanafuda (Japanese card games)..."

He had fought against Hanafuda before, so he knew that his opponent did not have such an ability.

The only explanation is...
"That Marine named Roy?"

Ace murmured the name he had only recently learned.

"We think so too."

Meanwhile, Deus offered his own guess: "They're probably fighting with Hanafuda (flower cards), and the frozen sea might be their ability."

He analyzed the situation with a serious expression, while the other members of the Spade Pirates beside him nodded in agreement.

Their discussion stopped after only a moment.

Because both they and Ace saw that distant scene at that moment.

Then, something crimson appeared in the sky.

That was something Ace was very familiar with—flames produced by high temperatures!
"The captain's 'Fire Fist'?"

His companions behind him also subconsciously said the same thing.

"No!"

But Ace had already made his answer in his heart at that moment.

He watched as the massive pillar of fire, enveloped in a powerful shockwave, hurtled toward the Hanafuda ship!
He could clearly see the ashes kicked up by the rushing flames.

He instinctively had a feeling that the flame seemed even stronger than his own.

But Ace didn't have time to think about it.

He then saw the enormous torrent of flames sweep across and pierce through the Hanafuda fleet.

"boom!"

A massive cloud of smoke and terrifying flames instantly rose from the frozen ocean, blotting out the sky, and a huge shockwave spread in all directions.

"The Hanafuda fleet is finished!"

Even from such a distance, Deus was absolutely certain that after this attack, none of the Hanafuda ships would survive! But immediately afterward, an even bigger question naturally arose.

That is.
"Who struck this time?"

A member of the Spade Pirates asked this question.

The scene was completely silent.

The answer is actually not hard to guess.

They had just witnessed the kind of fluctuation contained within that massive fire shockwave not long ago.

Immediately afterwards, the only sound on the entire ship was Ace's murmured whispers.

"Loy Amos"

"Hey! Are you kidding me? The boss is absolutely terrifyingly strong right now!"

And obviously.

Those who share similar views with the Spade Pirates also include the members of the currently detained force.

At that moment, Hans and Fal were waiting on the deck.

They had already followed Roy's instructions and arranged for people to search the cabin for the two wounded men, and to repair the cabin as well.

However, they did not completely follow the instructions.

For example, at this moment, instead of following Roy's orders to dodge, they each took their own weapons.

They had already decided that if their leader lost, they would take his place.

But the reality far exceeded their expectations.

Even under the cover of thick smoke, they could still see the devastation on the frozen sea not far away.

The entire 'giant dinosaur fleet' was indeed almost completely wiped out at this moment.

Six of the auxiliary ships had vanished at the epicenter of the explosion, with only burning fragments remaining to prove their existence.

The only ship that still retains its complete appearance is the main ship 'Tyrannosaurus Rex' – but even so, its hull has broken in the middle, and the entire ship has been melted and penetrated.

"Just two strikes, and he actually defeated that legendary Shichibukai."

So at this moment, the marines in the detention unit felt a little dizzy.

"Um... do you guys think that's still the boss himself? Could he be General Zephyr in disguise?"

Hans's thinking was as unconventional as ever.

"What are you talking about? That must be the boss!"

Farfur punched him on the spot: "But did Admiral Zephyr give the boss a Devil Fruit to freeze or set the sea on fire?"

"Oh, you're right!"

Upon hearing this, Hans finally understood: "That's right—General Zephyr isn't a Devil Fruit user, so the one impersonating the leader wasn't him."

"Are you even listening to anyone?!"

And it was precisely during the argument that the two of them were arguing.

"You two have made two more mistakes."

They saw Roy descend from the sky using moonwalking techniques and land back on the warship.

His expression remained calm, even seemingly carrying a strange sense of 'comfort'.

"First of all, everyone knows I'm not a Devil Fruit user, nor have I eaten one. As for what you just saw, it was still the 'Hadouken'."

He looked at Far and Hans with a serious expression, who were both incredulous.

"Not long ago, my teacher told me that the Fishman's martial art, 'Fishman Karate,' can manipulate the moisture in the surrounding air."

"This gave me a slight insight, so I created a new style of Hadouken - called 'Hyou Hadouken'."

As he spoke, blue ripples appeared on his hands.

"In addition, my teacher also told me that there is a sword technique in Wano Country called 'Foxfire Style,' which can release and cut through flames."

"Moreover, there are quite a few people who can use friction to manipulate flames. For example, I know a pirate and his cook who can use similar techniques."

"I made some slight developments on this and created this second style of Hadouken - which is called 'En Hadouken'."

What he said offhand was, of course, complete nonsense.

The two so-called Hadouken techniques he is currently displaying are essentially the Human-Human Fruit: Buddha form, which combines the high temperature and extreme cold effects of the Magma-Magma Fruit and the Ice-Ice Fruit.

By amplifying these two effects with the help of shockwaves, such a powerful attack naturally develops.

However, since both Logia-type Devil Fruit abilities and the Great Buddha Fruit's ability are extremely energy-consuming, he had never used this idea in actual combat, even though he had it before.

But now, after recent physical enhancements, he has been able to grasp it to a basic degree!
As for what he's saying about a new style of Hadouken, it's completely without scientific basis.

But that's obviously not important.

because
"I see!"

"It's actually like this!"

"As expected of General Zephyr's disciple!"

"I must say, he truly lives up to his reputation as the boss."

Upon hearing his words, the marines chose to believe him almost without hesitation.

Roy was not surprised at all by this situation.

That's right.

This is the most critical point.

If it were Roy Amos, an ordinary major in the previously detained unit, then it would be unreasonable for him to demonstrate such a significant increase in strength in such a short period of time, and it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

But the situation is different now.

He is now a legendary admiral in the Navy, the undisputed strongest instructor, and a disciple of "Black Arm" Zephyr.

Almost every member of the Navy grew up listening to the legend of Zephyr!

So, what's so surprising about the fact that the disciple of former General Zephyr gets stronger faster?
“In Professor Zephyr’s eyes, I am a ‘monster-like genius’.”

"In the eyes of other naval personnel, I am 'the disciple of a naval legend'."

A smile spread across Roy's lips.

"So now I can be more unrestrained in displaying my power."

After a brief moment of surprise, Hans and Far quickly came to their senses.

"Boss, you said we made two mistakes, what's the third one?"

Far asked with some curiosity.

Upon hearing his question, Roy smiled again.

"The second mistake is that you said I defeated the Seven Warlords of the Sea with one blow."

"Although I've become much stronger now, it's still quite difficult to take down a guy like that in one hit."

As Roy finished speaking...

"navy!"

Hans and Far also heard the roar that echoed across the entire sea.
