Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: VS Marineford Rear Admiral

Unfortunately, under the cover of Kenbunshoku Haki, Jenos's movements were completely within Nox's control.

The moment Jenos's body shifted, Nox's sword edge also shifted, then slashed towards Jenos's back.

"Chi chi!!!"

When the sword edge arrived, Jenos subconsciously used Busoshoku Haki and Iron Body to defend, but the sharpness of the Po Jun sword edge was even greater than that of the Cross Slash.

His Busoshoku Haki and Iron Body were instantly cut through, leaving deep sword marks on Jenos's back that went down to the bone, his stark spine clearly visible.

"Damn guy!"

Jenos was sent flying into the air by a single Po Jun slash. He endured the intense pain and used Moonwalk to stabilize his body.

"Where did he go?"

However, when he looked down to search for Nox's figure, he found that Nox's figure was nowhere to be seen below.

"He's above!"

Not finding him below, he subconsciously looked up. Sure enough, Nox's figure had appeared above him at some point!

"Limitless · Busoshoku · Collapse Mountain Slash!!"

Nox, who was in the air, used Moonwalk to rapidly descend from the sky. He raised his long sword above his head, and a powerful sword energy was attached to the sword body.

The moment Jenos looked up, the long sword in Nox's hand met the strong wind and slashed down fiercely, like a mountain descending from the sky, unstoppable.

"Damn it, does this kid also have Kenbunshoku Haki?!"

Jenos's eyes were bloodshot, almost bursting open. He felt as if he was locked onto by the opponent's sword, and no matter how he dodged, he couldn't avoid that one slash.

He had felt this kind of feeling before from a Vice Admiral; it was a usage of Kenbunshoku Haki.

"Busoshoku · Iron Body!!"

Facing Nox's descending slash, Jenos didn't think much and subconsciously crossed his hands in front of his head, using Iron Body plus Busoshoku Haki for defense.

"Crack!!"

"Bang!!!"

Both Busoshoku Haki and Iron Body were shattered by the Collapse Mountain Slash. If Jenos hadn't switched hands to block, his hand would probably be broken by now.

The powerful Collapse Mountain Slash sent Jenos crashing down from the air, landing on the ground and creating a ten-meter wide, one-meter deep crater.

The intense shockwave also penetrated Jenos's hand defense and impacted his head, causing him excruciating pain.

"Limitless · Busoshoku · Silverlight Falling Blade!!"

However, just as Jenos stood up, a silver sword light in the sky descended rapidly like a meteor.

The immense momentum of the sword light even intimidated Jenos below.

"Busoshoku · Hook Kick!!"

Jenos knew his hands could no longer block this attack, so he quickly covered his feet with Busoshoku Haki. With a raised leg, he delivered a side kick, trying to deflect the falling silver sword light.

"Chi chi!!!"

However, the sword light carried a powerful suppressing force. Jenos's leg was held still in the air, and the silver light instantly pierced into Jenos's abdomen.

"Get lost!"

Jenos was also a ruthless person. He grabbed the sword body in his abdomen with one hand to prevent it from piercing further, and clenched his other hand into a fist to strike Nox's wrist.

Seeing this, Nox forcefully pulled out his long sword and dodged Jenos's punch. At the same time, while dodging, he kicked Jenos flying.

"He is a Rear Admiral with very rich combat experience."

Nox thought as he stared at Jenos. Nox himself lacked combat experience; otherwise, with his current strength, killing Jenos would be very fast.

But now, he couldn't be fast, because Jenos always paid some price and dodged the fatal blow when Nox thought he had him.

"This guy is a monster!"

Jenos no longer underestimated Nox as he did at the beginning. He had felt several fatal crises from the opponent's hands just now.

And the Finger Pistol wounds that were originally riddled all over the opponent's body were now scarred.

If not for long, the wounds would probably heal. He found this recovery ability terrifying just by looking at it.

"Kill!!!"

Nox didn't give the opponent a chance to breathe and charged forward again with his sword.

He had many sword techniques, and they were very unusual. Many of the sword skills from his memory could be developed under his Sword Master sword art foundation and powerful physique.

Powerful sword techniques combined with the enhancement of Busoshoku Haki elevated Nox's combat power to another level.

Jenos, being a Rear Admiral and possessing Busoshoku Haki, could only constantly defend in front of Nox.

"If I can't block it, then I won't block it!"

Even with full defense, Jenos was still constantly being hit by sword attacks, in addition to his previous injuries.

The more he fought, the more he fell into a passive and disadvantageous position. If this continued, he would be the one to die.

The maddened Jenos abandoned the idea of defense and directly clashed with Nox head-on.

When the sword struck him, he also attacked Nox with his strongest power, playing a game of mutual damage.

"Hahaha, if that's the case, let's hurt each other and see who can't hold on first."

Seeing this, Nox laughed heartily. He also didn't defend against Jenos's attacks, letting the opponent's attacks land on him.

With his powerful physique, as long as it wasn't a fatal injury, he could completely ignore it.

With Nox intentionally holding back a bit, Nox and Jenos fought continuously for half an hour.

However, after half an hour, Jenos was covered in sword wounds.

The most terrifying wound was the one on his chest, which almost cut through his heart. You could even clearly see his heart beating from the outside.

"Cough, cough, cough, kid, I am a Marineford Rear Admiral. If you dare to kill me, you will definitely be wanted and hunted by Marineford."

"My superior, Admiral Candidate Hormans, takes very good care of me. If he personally takes action, you will definitely not escape."

Fighting up to this point, Jenos already knew that there was absolutely no way he could escape.

He wasn't stronger than the opponent in speed, strength, defense, or Haki. It was only his lifetime of combat experience that allowed him to last until now.

Facing this kind of suppression made him feel extremely frustrated. The only hope he had of surviving now was his position as a Marineford Rear Admiral.

"Hehe, just a mere Marine. At worst, I'll become a Pirate and join the Rocks Pirates."

"With my talent and strength, it won't take long for me to become a strong person in this World and not fear the Marine."

"Admiral Candidate Hormans, huh? I've remembered him. In the future, when I see this guy, I'll give him a good greeting for you."

Nox said disdainfully. In this World, there were very few people he feared. He was confident that he was definitely not weaker than anyone!

"Now, you can die in peace."

The battle had reached this point, and Jenos's value had been fully utilized. Nox would definitely not let go of this person who dared to attack his master.
