One Piece: Honey Badger Speedruns the World

Goss's expression turned serious, and the wooden plank beneath his feet shattered instantly.

He held nothing back, squeezing out every last drop of strength from his body, like a cannonball fired, swinging his fist covered in black and white hair, and smashing it fiercely against that insurmountable mountain.

"Get down...!!!"

Bang! ! !

Two fists, one large and one small, collided in mid-air.

There was no domineering aura or dark lightning, only the muffled thud of pure physical collision.

A strong gust of wind blew Pokemus's sunglasses off.

One second later.

Whoosh—Boom!

Goss flew backward like a rag doll, rolled more than a dozen times on the pier, and finally came to a stop after crashing hard into a lamppost.

His entire right arm hung limply, clearly dislocated.

"Cough cough... Pfft!"

Goss coughed up a mouthful of blood, wincing in pain, but he was still laughing.

"it's over."

Katakuri retracted his fist, without even brushing the dust off his gloves.

"End... my ass!!"

A loud shout rang out.

The moment Goss landed, he pushed off with one foot and bounced back like a rebounding ball!

He did not choose to use his Devil Fruit power to restore his body.

Since Katakuri didn't use a Devil Fruit, I definitely won't either.

"My right hand is useless... and then there's my left hand!!"

call!

A bloodied left hook whistled as it slammed into Katakuri's ribs.

Katakuri frowned slightly and merely turned his body slightly to the side.

Bang.

Lift your knees.

It hit Goss right in the lower abdomen.

"vomit--!"

Goss's eyes bulged out, and he almost vomited bile. He was once again sent flying like a cannonball.

But while he was in the air, his body twisted strangely.

Using the force of being thrown back, he forcefully swung his long leg, delivering a powerful whip kick to Katakuri's neck.

"Get it!!"

Snapped.

Katakuri raised his arm and easily blocked the attack without flinching.

The recoil caused Goss's shinbone to groan. He fell to the ground again, rolling seven or eight times, his face covered in blood.

That's enough.

Katakuri looked at the brat who had turned into a blood gourd and spoke coldly:

"Your bones are broken. If you keep hitting him, you'll die."

"Heh...hehe..."

Goss lay on the ground, panting heavily, blood dripping from his chin onto the wooden board.

He shakily propped himself up.

My right arm is broken.

My left hand is swollen.

Three ribs were broken.

A fractured shinbone.

But the fire in his eyes burned ever brighter.

"If your hand is broken, use your feet... if your feet are broken, use your head..."

Goss grinned, revealing a set of incredibly sharp teeth, the honey badger's last weapon.

"It still has teeth!!!"

Roar! !

Like a wild beast that had gone completely mad, he pounced on all fours.

Regardless of the consequences!

Completely haphazard!

Katakuri stared at the blood-red shadow rushing towards him.

He saw not a trace of cowardice in this newcomer.

Lacking skill, lacking dominance, and even nearly losing his rationality.

Only pure, unadulterated fighting spirit.

Bang!

Katakuri's large hand pressed down on Gos's head.

The immense force rendered him unable to advance any further.

Goss was suspended in mid-air, kicking his limbs wildly, his mouth wide open, frantically trying to bite the glove, his teeth grinding together like a mad dog whose head had been held down but who still wanted to kill.

"..."

Katakuri stared at the pair of crazed eyes so close to his face.

a long time.

He released his grip and took a step back.

Hey.

The sound of the leather boots hitting the ground was clearly audible.

Goss fell to the ground with a thud and could not get up again.

She completely fainted.

His broken limbs and wounds began to heal rapidly with a "crackling" sound, without the restriction of Goss's consciousness.

The life energy stored from consuming large amounts of honey earlier easily repaired Goss's injuries.

"Is it a Devil Fruit ability? It can heal injuries... Did you deliberately not use it just now, since you saw that I didn't use my Devil Fruit ability either?"

If he learns to be domineering, he'll truly be a warrior worth looking forward to; Mom's judgment is as sharp as ever.

"Even if you win, newbie."

Katakuri tugged at his scarf, his voice no longer cold, but instead carrying an unprecedented solemnity.

He turned and walked toward a huge mirror on the side of the street. His back was still tall, but this time, he no longer treated Goss as a prisoner who needed to be guarded.

"Hey crocodile, carry your captain on your back."

……

The New World, Zou the Elephant.

Whale Forest, the base of the Knights-Errant.

boom!

A huge cat paw slammed down on the tree stump table, making the teacups on it jump.

"Meow hahaha! Did you see that, Pedro!!"

The leader of the cat viper gang, with a pipe dangling from his lips, had a ruddy glow on his wild, lion-like face.

He waved the brand-new wanted poster in his hand, his beard trembling with laughter:

"I knew this kid was a menace! 3 million! A first bounty of 3 million Berries!! Meow hahaha! That's a feat even I couldn't achieve back in the day!!"

Under the shade of a tree.

Pedro leaned against the tree trunk, and a rare smile of relief appeared on his usually serious and tense face.

He took the wanted poster, looked at the arrogant expression on Goss's face in the photo—a look that suggested he wanted to tear the sky apart—and gently exhaled a smoke ring:

"It's truly astonishing. He defeated a Shichibukai as soon as he set sail. We thought he could escape, but we didn't expect him to have the guts to challenge a Shichibukai single-handedly. In the end, Zou still owes him a debt of gratitude..."

"And this! That little girl Mia has over two hundred million! Even that businessman Baal has ten million!"

The cat viper excitedly flipped through the newspaper, pointing at the photos and marveling at them:

"These kids are so energetic! They're making me want to go out to sea and cause some trouble! Meow!"

however.

As it flipped through the pages, the cat viper suddenly stopped moving.

He turned the newspaper over and over, shook it, and even brought it close to his eyes to examine the gaps.

"Um?"

The cat viper's smile froze, and his vertical pupils were filled with great confusion:

"Wait a minute, Pedro."

"Where's Carrot?"

"Carrot?"

Pedro was also taken aback for a moment, then immediately came over, and the two of them rummaged through the pile of bounty posters, their heads touching.

Goss, Mia, Soton, Bal.

Even the few minor figures who were just background characters were mentioned briefly in the report.

There was no sign of the rabbit.

"strangeness……"

Pedro frowned and pointed to the corner of the photo:

"Didn't Wanda say that Carrot left a letter saying, 'To see the outside world, I'm going to join Goss's crew on an adventure'?"

"Yes! That night she just packed her bags and ran off! She even took two baskets of carrots with her!"

The cat viper scratched its messy blond hair, looking completely bewildered:

"Didn't she catch the ship?"

Or perhaps...

The two exchanged a glance, and a scene simultaneously flashed through their minds:

On the vast ocean, a rabbit paddled along a tattered plank, crying and shouting as it chased after Goss's ship, only to watch helplessly as it disappeared below the horizon...

"No...no way?"

The cat viper swallowed hard, sweat pouring down its back.

"Is that girl still adrift at sea? Meow?!"

Pedro remained silent for a long time, looking thoughtfully at Goss's $3 million bounty poster.

"..."

Cat Viper thought about Carrot's usual goofy and adorable appearance.

"Meow hahaha! Whatever!"

With a wave of his hand, the cat viper Xin Dadi completely forgot about his concerns and raised his wine glass:

"Anyway, he's going to find that kid Goss, so he's in charge! If Carrot loses a single hair, I'll skin him alive and use his skin as carpet! Men! Prepare a feast! To celebrate the emergence of a 3 million bounty pirate in Zou!!"

"Banquet! Banquet!!"

A cheer erupted in the forest, but Pedro, clutching the newspaper without Carrot's name, gazed at the distant sea with a hint of worry in his eyes.
