Ninth Section: The Annual Naval Martial Arts Tournament (Part 2)

  All that could be heard was the sound of clanging, like the sound of rain hitting a pipa. The yellow ape transformed into a burst of radiant light, surrounding Shen Bao's golden bell cover. In an instant, it had launched nearly a hundred attacks, but the aftermath of the fierce battle only managed to shatter the bricks and stones on the ground. However, Shen Bao's golden bell cover remained intact, without even a hint of dullness in its luster.

  This was really a blow to the proud young master Huang Yuan. But young people, even if they have been hit countless times, will get up quickly countless times, with full momentum and no discouragement. This is the characteristic of youth.

  The more Huang You was beaten, the more his fighting spirit burned brighter. His eyes, looking at Shen Bao, ignited with a fierce flame of determination.

  The rain grew heavier.

  The sound echoed on the golden bell cover, and finally, the cover... rippled with waves...

  The cheers for Huang Yi gradually subsided, and the shouts for Shen Bao grew louder.

  The officers on the judges' panel all looked shocked, and Lei Meng nodded secretly: "Good kid, hiding so deeply, able to release the body's energy externally, only one step away from the realm of returning to life!"

  Only Warring States was expressionless, while He Gan's eyes sparkled.

  His strength far surpasses that of a general, Kapu's eyes see further and think more, his heart also stirred up a huge wave: "Heavenly posture, heavenly posture! Energy is emitted, mixed with an unshakeable, impenetrable, and inviolable aura, he has already touched the edge of overbearingness!"

  Shen Bao didn't know about the commotion he had caused, and in his heart, he was secretly lamenting: "The defense of the iron block and golden bell is indeed powerful, but it consumes physical strength too quickly and excessively. Even at its longest, it can only last for a short ten minutes. If the golden bell disappears after ten minutes, my own physical strength will also be exhausted, leaving me helpless against others!"

  He didn't not want to counterattack, but his three absolute techniques of Iron Block couldn't restrain a speed-type opponent. And Huang Yuan just happened to be the speediest among speed-types, Flashing Man's attacking power might still be lacking now, but his speed was absolutely at the top of the world.

  So even if Shenhao has the means to attack, he doesn't have complete confidence in hitting Huangyuan. If he attacks randomly, it will only accelerate his loss of physical strength and cause the balance of victory to tilt towards Huangyuan.

  "Hurry up and pour it, hurry up and pour it!" Shen Bao cursed in his heart, wishing that Huang Yuan would absorb more of the Sea Building Stone powder, until his flashing ability weakened to a negligible level.

  Perhaps having heard his curse, the vigorous young monkey attacked even more fiercely.

  The light has formed a sheet, as if wrapped in white silk with golden round eggs.

  The cheers and shouts gradually subsided, as everyone was stunned by the power of the Flash Fruit. Even Raigyo, the great general, couldn't help but wonder: "If I were to face an opponent like this, would my speed be enough to keep up?"

  5 minutes have passed, 10 minutes are also slowly passing by...

  After 15 minutes, it was clear to anyone that Jinbao was in a passive position of being beaten, and as soon as his defense relaxed slightly, the fierce flash attack could immediately knock him to the ground.

  The onlookers began to murmur among themselves.

  "The power of the Devil Fruit is indeed strong! Even Shinsui's subordinate was suppressed and had no way to fight back!"

  "Yes, no matter how intense the training is, it's just an ordinary person after all. It's really too much to handle when facing a Devil Fruit user."

  "I also really want a Devil Fruit!"

  "Alright, alright, you devil fruit is worth 100 million Berries, isn't it? If I'm not mistaken, brother, you just lost a whole 10,000 Berries in that last gamble of yours."

  "Ah, I didn't expect that group of administrative clerks to be so ridiculously strong! Brother, I've put all my last hopes on Lieutenant Shenbao! Ah... looks like this time I'll lose everything, even my underwear!"

  "It's that bad?! Don't worry, the banker has just shown mercy and allowed us to change our betting object in the last round. Hurry up and change it to Huang Yuan, this is the last chance!"

  "Really? Then I'll hurry up and go! Thanks, bro!"

  No need to mention the changes in the stands, the reversal of the camps. On the field, however, Jinbao was already exhausted. For 15 minutes, he had been attacked by strong winds and heavy rains. Jinbao felt his vision blurring, even the golden bell shield had dimmed to its limit, leaving only a faint outline that seemed to be on the verge of collapse with just one more attack.

  "This time it's big, I should have mixed more hailuo stone earlier, regret!" Xīn Bǎo's consciousness was dazed and confused, as if he had returned to his own conscious space again.

  Ink-black consciousness space, possibly transformed by spatial heterodyne during traversal, has become as vast as the universe. This place is not lacking in color. Like stars, 7 spherical soul orbs are emitting dazzling brilliance.

  Very calm deep sea soul jade, dark blue as an abyss.

  The dragon sword soul jade of Long Ma, unparalleled and unmatched.

  Kurokas's Life Soul Jade, lush and green.

  Christina's Flame Soul Jade, Crimson Adorable.

  The twin soul orbs of the blue ogre and red ogre, clear blue and murky red.

  The wise soul of Silver Fox Fukusi, shining brightly with a silver light.

  They seemed to be saying:

  "Hold on tight, dear treasure, brother is supporting you from afar!"

  "Captain, you're on your way!"

  "Captain, refuel!"

  "Dear brother Shén Bǎo, you are forever my great hero, don't lose okay."

  "Boss!" "Boss!"...

  Xinbao only felt tears welling up in his eyes, and the warmth in the heart of this otaku was full. He cried out: "Thank you, thank you for everyone's concern, but it's no use, I don't have a single thread of physical strength left on my body."

  "Then we'll lend you the power!" This voice emerged from nothingness, grew from weakness to strength, and finally filled the entire universe-like conscious space with such a uniform roar!

  Seven gem-like Soul Orbs suddenly emitted a radiant glow like the sun, red, orange, yellow, green, silver, blue and purple!

  At this time, Shen Bao felt that there were 7 forces spreading from his heart to all over his body, and his strength had returned!
