Pirate's Freedom

After slowly regaining his breath, Katakuri slowly stood up straight and raised his fists again.

"It seems you don't want to answer," Tata Tot said calmly, "It doesn't matter. In that case, let us make a summary."

"First point," first he raised a finger, and then, Tata Tot clenched his right hand tightly, and the dark armed domineering energy lingered on it, gradually becoming deeper.

"Relying too much on the Haki of seeing and hearing, the Haki of the Armed Haki is not strong enough."

Tata Tot disappeared instantly, rushed in front of Katakuri, and punched him. The stern-looking Katakuri's right hand turned into a bar-shaped rice cake, and after covering it with domineering energy, he also punched——

"Horn rice cake!!"

There was a "boom"!Before the two fists came into contact, the armed domineering force released had already collided in the air. A large amount of black lightning burst out in all directions. The stalemate lasted only a moment. Then, Tata Tot's fist continued to move forward and collided with the end of the black rice cake. Together, they were slightly shocked.

"boom!!!"

The next moment, Katakuri flew out uncontrollably and crashed through more than a dozen suddenly raised glutinous rice hills. However, he managed to turn over the moment he touched the ground, drawing a long ravine on the glutinous rice plain. .

A moment later, at the end of the ravine, Katakuri stood up silently while lying on the ground. His right hand looked a little unnaturally twisted, but after standing upright, he waved his right hand again——

“Bird rice cake!!

A whip made of rice cakes roared through the air and whipped towards Tata Tot from a distance. "

"Second point," he raised two fingers. Tata Tot's body flashed, and he walked through the whip shadow in the sky without a second thought. Then, he exerted force under his feet again, and with an explosion of speed, he came to Kataku who was retreating rapidly. Chestnut side.

"Too much reliance on fruit abilities, physical abilities, that is, insufficient training in physical skills."

Katakuri, who quickly retreated, bent his legs, split them into hundreds, and kicked Tata Tot who was just around the corner——

“Double Willow Pancake!!”

A dense shadow of legs swept across, Tata Tot also kicked out his right leg, slashing and sweeping, instantly neutralizing Katakuri's kick, then stretched out his left hand to deflect the incoming left fist, and pressed his right hand on his There was a sudden force in his chest.

"puff!"

The shock wave turned into a strong shock and spread through the body. Katakuri suddenly felt as if he was struck by thunder. He staggered and almost fell backwards. He managed to steady his body, but fell to his knees and spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth, stained with blood. scarf on red face.

"The third and final point," Tata Tot raised a third finger.

"Mobile glutinous rice balls!!"

The next moment, the entire glutinous rice plain became turbulent. The undulating ground rose high and turned into huge waves made of glutinous rice. They surrounded Katakuri himself and Tata Tot from all directions, and the light became dim. Come down.

"Care too much about your posture and not enough desire to win."

The surrounding waves have surrounded them and turned into a towering cliff. The gap at the top is getting smaller and smaller. The sunlight shining down is only a narrowing beam of light, covering the two people in the center, Katakuri. Jumping high into the air, with his back to the light, his raised hands and forearms expanded and deformed rapidly, and the two huge maces rotated at high speed, turning into buzzing black shadows that occupied the space.

Looking up, the light from behind turned Katakuri into a black outline with blurred edges, like some kind of alien object. The increasingly dim light completely disappeared, and it was bombarded like a meteor hammer. With his transformed arms, Katakuri swooped down——

"Double·cut·cut·rice cake!!!"

Composed of slowly flowing glutinous rice, on the newly emerged vast plain outside Cake City, a huge semicircular dome of rice cakes suddenly bulged, like an inflated balloon that grew rapidly, covering less than half of the city in the blink of an eye. The plain has become the most eye-catching presence on Cake Island.

However, just when it expanded rapidly to occupy the entire cake island, the entire rice cake dome suddenly became stagnant. The next moment, the [balloon] that was blowing bigger and bigger seemed to have finally reached a certain limit. With a deafening bang, it exploded like a balloon.

"Bang!!!!"

On the Biscuit Island closest to the Cake Island, all the busy people heard the faint sound of balloon explosions inexplicably. They looked around for a while, but no one found anything. They could only shake their heads indifferently. It was another strange thing. pile.

The glutinous rice plain on the outskirts of Cake City has lost the ability of Katakuri's fruit. It has gradually returned to its original state. However, the permanently changed terrain cannot be restored. From now on, if there are no major changes, this place will become a new basin. .

In the center of the basin, at the lowest point of the deep depression, Katakuri was embedded in the ground and facing up, with two arms dripping with blood and twisted at an angle.

"How's it going?" Tata Tot stood beside him, his bent body casting a shadow, "Finally, don't you have anything to say?"

"Tell me, do you regard me as your enemy?" Katakuri's voice was weak as he was bleeding profusely. "Did you really go all out in the battle just now?"

"Hey, Katakuri," Tata Tot looked in the direction of the rooftop of Cake City and narrowed his eyes slightly, "This is not something you would say when begging for mercy."

"..." Katakuri closed his eyes, and his chest that was constantly rising and falling calmed down.

After a series of battles, the atmosphere was still in chaos. For a while, the strong wind that kept blowing became the only sound here.

"People become stronger because they have unforgettable memories. This is what is called growth."

After waiting for a while, Tata Tot took steps forward and spoke.

“But living a different lifestyle is tiring because there are no excuses.”

"I have made up my mind to become a perfect man who will not be underestimated by anyone."

Trying hard to turn over, but with no strength left in his body, Katakuri gasped, "I will never lose to you in the next battle."

"I don't hate naive guys," Tata Tot continued, turning to look at him, "but I hate guys who can't stick to what they say."

Air waves bloomed under his feet, and Tata Tot jumped up and ran high into the sky. A voice faintly sounded, "I will look forward to it without any hope. When we meet next time, surprise me."
