Allan flashed as if teleporting, and the next second he kicked Netero using Leaf Strong Whirlwind along with Armament Haki!
Neteroâs eyes flashed as his palm moved slowly toward Allan. But time seemed to stop as the palm moved while Allan is still in the air.
Suddenly, terrifying shockwaves spread out like a hurricane as the whole room trembled. Netero was surprised by the black-colored kick and looked at Allan with curiosity.
Allanâs power exceeded his expectations.
Allanâs heart was beating like crazy after his strongest physical attack was blocked so easily by Netero.
âWhat a crazy old man! He is too strong! Is he really in his hundreds?â
âAgain.â Netero laughed.
âOkay, here I come.â Allan nodded.
He knew well that Netero was letting him attack, so he didnât shrink back and attacked.
Armament-type: Hardening!
Allan clenched his fist, and his arm instantly turned black.
Allan instantly unleashed the strongest punch he could master at Netero while the latter was grinning: âI knew I was right! You are so young and promising!â
Netero looked at Allan in appreciation as he lightly sent a palm strike toward Allanâs fist. His palm glowed with a golden light that seemed strong enough to lighten up the world.
A golden palm met with a black fist!
Hm~!
The moment they collided, the black and the golden light intertwined as a great shockwave burst out.
After the fierce collision, Allan directly pulled back and retreated ten meters from Netero.
Allan looked at Netero seriously as he reached a certain conclusion, which was: âThe damn old man is way stronger than I expected!!!â
Allan knew that if he competes with Netero using Nen, he wouldâve lost already. Thanks to his Armament Haki, he could at least challenge him slightly, even though Netero could end the fight anytime if he was serious.
At this moment, Netero suddenly asked: âAllan, Your fist is so strong because of that black energy coating them, right?â
âItâs called Armament Haki.â Allan didnât hide anything.
âIt can freely cover any part of the body like Nen, and this can improve the offense and defense of the user.â
âSo, it can be used like Nen, but it isnât something produced by Nen, right?â
âYes, The Armament Haki isnât produced by Nen, but the two are somewhat similar to each other.â
âThen, come again, I want to see which is better, this armament Haki, or Nen!â Netero exclaimed.
âThen, here I come, Chairman!â
Allan instantly flashed out and appeared in front of Netero with Armament Haki covering his fist!
Netero sent out a palm with Nen covering it and strengthening it.
The black fist and golden palm kept flashing out as they collided at a high-speed, causing an explosion from Time to Time that could be heard all over the Associationâs building.
Allan was using Soru and Flash Steps at the same time, which resulted in extreme speed that left after images behind while Neteroâs speed didnât lose to the former.
The Black Fist and Golden Palm collided for the hundredth time, but neither of them was hit.
From Time to Time, A bodhisattva would block Allanâs attacks, but despite that, Allan didnât cease his attacks.
His greatest advantage in this fight is his body, which should be more durable than Neteroâs old aging body.
Of course, if Netero was serious, Allan would be on the floor almost as soon as the fight started.
Allan continued his attack, kicking and punching Netero with Armament Haki covering his limbs.
Suddenly, Allan sent a flying slash by kicking the air using Rankyaku. The slash was black, unlike the usual blue because Allan used Haki Along with it increasing its power.
This attack should be enough to force Netero to use another get slightly serious.
Neteroâs eyes flashed slightly as a golden bodhisattvaâs arms suddenly appeared behind him and blocked the attack.
At this Time, Allan stood in the air using Moon Walk as if waiting for an opportunity, and almost as soon as the attack collided with Neteroâs bodhisattvaâs palm, Allan rushed down.
He sent another toward Neteroâs back.
Feeling the attack from behind, Netero suddenly flashed out, and in the next moment, the Rankyaku slammed on the ground, creating a deep gash on the ground.
âHooh~ That seems dangerous.â
Netero looked at the deep gully on the ground as if sighing in relief because he wasnât hit.
Allan frowned slightly, as Neteroâs reaction was quite fast.
Neteroâs avoiding the Rankyaku didnât mean he couldnât stop the attack. Allan wasnât that naĂŻve to think he could face Netero and defeat him.
However, the power needed to dodge an attack was far less than the one needed to block it.
From this, it is clear that Netero wasnât a brainless fighter.
Allan started sending Rankyaku attacks all over the place, hoping to prevent Netero from dodging.
Sure enough, Neteroâs eyes flashed as he clasped his hands together.
Immediately a faint golden light burst out from his palms, forming a curtain covering him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Rankyaku slashes continuously slammed into the curtain, which caused ripples as if the curtain was made of water, but nothing else happened, and the curtain remained strong.
As soon as Allan touched the ground, he once again fierce kicked the air, and this Time, another slash quickly formed out and moved toward Netero at a high-speed.
The slash assumed a bird shape as it moved toward Neteroâs golden curtain.
âBreak it!â
Allanâs figure flashed as he once again sent another slash with all of his power.
Inside the Curtain, Neteroâs felt a slight pressure, but he didnât move, and in the end, the golden light around him repelled Allanâs attack completely.
âSure enough, it failed.â Seeing this, Allan sighed.
He used all of his power, but he still couldnât break through Neteroâs defense.
However, Allan stopped that train of thoughts. After all, he was fighting the worldâs strongest here. Only a few people could even dream of matching him.
Even though he was old and his power declined, his Nen was as strong as ever.
âYour moves are quite interesting and powerful. I was a little overwhelmed.â Netero said.
He wasnât exaggerating, as he believed that Allanâs techniques were quite interesting, fierce, and held a lot of power.
And he could tell that none of his attacks used Nen.
Itâs like another system of power independent of Nen.
This made him feel strange, and he couldnât help asking Allan.
âAllan, can you tell me, what were those moves?â
âOf course.â Allan smiled slightly as he wasnât afraid that Netero could steal his moves.
âThe Air Slash I used just now is from what is called Rankyaku, from the six powers. There are six techniques, which are quite apparent from the name, and each one is different.
The movement technique I use is called Soru, which generates quite the speed. The upgraded version of this technique is Moon Walk, which allows me to fly, and as for the other three techniques, I still didnât learn them yet, so I canât tell you about them.â
âHehe, itâs okay.â
He admired Allan, who was unreserved about his abilities, and smiled slightly: âArenât you afraid that I will learn those techniques? Or do you have something to counter them?â
Allan shook his head and said: âIf it was someone else, I would really worry, but if itâs you, Chairman, I wonât have to worry about that.
Because you are stronger than Iâm, moreover, my techniques are suitable for me, I donât think others can learn them.
Therefore, worrying about this wasnât necessary.â
âHehehe, Heâs really good!!â Netero smiled and asked with Interest: âThen, do you have any other abilities? Show me what you got.â
âOf course, I have. If Chairman wants to see, then I must go all out.â Allan showed confidence on his face, which meant he had an ace up his sleeve.
âCome on then. I will take it seriously.â Netero smiled.
âHere I come!â
In the next second, Cold air started filling the room as the mist formed out of nowhere.
Allanâs ace was the ability of his Devil Fruit.
The first thing he needs to do is turn the battlefield into a natural advantage.
Ice Field!
With Allan as the center, Ice spread all over the room, freezing the ground and the walls around very quickly.
The room turned into an Ice cube.
In three seconds, the room was completely frozen.
The ground, walls, ceiling, corners, and anything in between were sealed in Ice.
Allan looked at the freezer he created in satisfaction. He now had the home Advantage (Battlefield advantage).
This is a battlefield specifically created to benefit and increase the power of his Ice Ice Fruit. Allan wasnât confident enough to defeat Netero, but he would try his best to do so.
At this moment, Netero is standing on the Ice looking at the Ice covered room, and his face showed a serious expression, finally.
