Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 88 Fear is a primal instinct

"Haohime is injured!"

The blood stained his palms was glaringly obvious, shocking the students who were secretly watching.

Even among the top ten geniuses, Hao Huo's defense can be considered the best, with his towering five-meter-tall physique, marble-like muscles, and the added benefit of Armament Haki.

A born heavy-armored warrior.

They had witnessed more than once the sharp blades striking Hao Huo's body, only to be shattered and destroyed by Hao Huo's flesh.

Hao Huo stared at the returning Luo Ya, a rough smile spreading across his face. This was the kind of opponent he craved.

"Only when both sides have the ability to kill each other can it be called a battle!"

"That's right."

Loya agreed.

"Hahaha, fight with the resolve to kill your opponent."

Hao Huo laughed as he put on the steel boxing gloves. Unlike the style worn by Finbdi, the gloves protected the joints and had cylindrical protrusions on the surface.

If you keep hitting the enemy's body, you can easily turn them into mincemeat.

This is getting serious!

Hao Huo clenched his fist and shouted, "Put aside all your worries. We are warriors. Even if we die in battle, we will not be held accountable. If you kill me, then I am nothing more than a weakling of this level."

That's what I'm planning to do too.

Loya's gaze was cold.

If he hesitates and acts timidly because he is afraid of killing his opponent, and ultimately loses, he will never be able to forgive himself.

He would never joke with his own life!

In addition, injuries and deaths are unavoidable during intensive training. With so many soldiers participating in live-fire exercises, it is impossible to be without any risks.

As long as it's not intentional killing for amusement, even if you accidentally kill someone in battle, you won't be severely punished.

After all, being in the navy is a high-risk profession, requiring true strong individuals. The more outstanding one's performance, the higher the tolerance from above.

Hao Huo clenched his fists, his muscles bulging and tensing, and his originally loose martial arts uniform showed signs of tearing.

Despite being ten meters apart, Hao Huo launched an attack, his fist striking the air, creating a scorching shockwave around it!

"Bang!"

The air exploded with a muffled sonic boom, followed by a visible fist of fire that shot out!

"Fiery Fist!"

"This is!"

Loya's hair stood on end. He stomped his right foot repeatedly on the ground and vanished from his spot just before the fiery fist was about to strike him!

The fist of fire passed right through him and slammed into the big tree behind him!

"Snap!"

The tree trunk broke, and flames rose up.

Loya appeared a few meters away and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was an air bomb!

That punch from the opponent just now must have used the technique of the Tempest Kick, combining the vacuum wave generated by the extremely fast punch with the flames produced by friction with the air.

This requires extremely strong explosive power.

As he had anticipated, these top-ranked elites had all mastered the Six Styles techniques to varying degrees, and some had even developed their own unique moves.

"They're here!"

The Fist of Flames was just the prelude!

The sky darkened!

Loya suddenly looked up at the burly giant descending from the sky, quickly exerted force with his legs, and leaped backward.

A fist gleaming with cold light grazed his body and slammed into the ground. Instantly, the ground within a radius of several meters exploded, and a large amount of debris splashed onto Loya, leaving streaks of blood on his body!

Loya crossed his arms in front of him, and as soon as he landed, Hao Huo rushed in front of him again, his massive body like a lion pouncing on its prey.

If you slack off even a little, you will be torn to pieces.

"Clang!"

Rain Cutter blocked the fist, the blade rubbing against the steel gauntlet and sparks flying!

"Hahaha, that's great!"

Hao Huo grinned and suddenly twisted his fist, the metal spikes on its surface instantly jamming Loya's Rain Slash!

Oops!

Loya's gaze sharpened, and he immediately understood that the cylindrical protrusions on the opponent's gauntlets were not only for increasing attack power, but also for countering weapons such as swords.

"Click!"

The rain cutter was thrown away!

Immediately afterwards, the great fire rushed towards Loya!

"Don't get too cocky!"

Loya coldly stared at his opponent, and just as he was about to be caught, he leaped into the air.

He lifted his right foot!

Loya stared at Hao Huo's unguarded back, his right leg muscles rapidly contracting and stretching, putting his leg muscles in a highly active state, while his Haki wrapped around his foot!

Then, kick it out continuously!

"Storm Kick - Chaotic Stomp!"

"Iron block!"

With a powerful right foot, Hao Huo was repeatedly kicked in the back like raindrops. Even though Hao Huo tensed his back muscles and made his body as hard as iron, he was still kicked so hard that he couldn't stand up and his upper body slowly pressed against the ground!

"Click!"

Both feet sank into the ground!

"Such powerful kick! The iron block is almost collapsing!"

Hao Huo's eyes gradually rolled back, and his consciousness trembled.

When the attack stops.

Hao Huo pressed his hands to the ground, half-kneeling and panting heavily, his muscular back bearing numerous bright red, smoking shoe prints.

It looks like it's been branded with a hot iron!

pain!

"Clatter!"

Someone stepped on his back!

Hao Huo's pupils trembled. The physical pain and the humiliation of being trampled on made him furious, and even his hair danced.

"You bastard!"

He suddenly stood up and reached for the back of his head with both hands, but he grabbed nothing. The next second, Loya appeared on the side of his head and grabbed his hair with his right hand.

Apply downward force!

"Bang!"

Hao Huo landed face down, crashing heavily to the ground!

"You bastard!!!"

Hao Huo furiously got up, grabbing wildly at his surroundings. Although he wasn't seriously injured, the feeling of being suppressed drove him crazy.

"Huh?!"

He saw Loya, who had pulled out the Rain Cutter, a dozen meters away, and was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Loya was there.

Just now, I was right next to him.

"Could it be shaving?!"

Hao Huo was startled.

The opponent had previously demonstrated a move similar to Shave, but it wasn't as fast. However, now that he has appeared so far away in the blink of an eye, it can only be Shave.

If you master the "Shave" technique, you've likely also mastered the "Moon Step" technique, because the principles of "Shave" and "Moon Step" are similar, or rather, "Moon Step" is a derivative application of "Shave".

And there's also the "storm kick"!

That powerful kick almost broke his iron block; it couldn't have been done with just brute force.

This kid is clearly from the East Sea, so why is he so proficient in the Six Styles? Why was he able to easily break through his defenses?

Even he only possessed the iron block.

"Unforgivable!"

Hao Yan roared to the sky, unable to tolerate that a mediocre student from the East Blue was more skilled in the Six Styles than him, an elite who had joined the Navy at a young age!

"Blazing Flame - Heavy Punch!"

"boom!!!"

Time passed by, bit by bit.

The vast woodland was riddled with cracks left by violent destruction, and the two men were covered in more and more wounds, their strength rapidly waning.

"Damn it, why can't I hit it!"

Hao Huo furiously swung his fists, chasing after Luo Ya's figure. He knew that one punch would end the fight, but each time he missed by a hair's breadth.

He could clearly feel that Loya was getting faster and faster, and that his movements were becoming easier and easier to dodge.

If things continue like this, he will lose!

As the thought of defeat arose, Hao Huo's emotions became even more volatile, and his attacks became even more ferocious, resembling a maddened beast.

"That madman!"

Loya dodged awkwardly, constantly getting caught in the extra damage from the powerful fire attacks, causing his wounds to multiply rapidly.

Each of the opponent's punches had tremendous destructive power, easily shattering rocks and affecting a wide area.

Faced with such a fierce attack, he could only temporarily avoid the brunt of the attack and wait for an opportunity; a head-on confrontation would only put him in a disadvantageous position.

The more ferocious the opponent's attack, the more exhausted they will be after the initial burst of damage. The best time to counterattack is the moment when the opponent stops causing destruction.

Within the surrounding forest.

"The Fireballs are going to lose."

"Huh? That black-haired guy is stronger than Gouka?"

"No, the two are evenly matched. Although the black-haired one has the upper hand, his own consumption is far greater than that of Hao Huo, and he cannot afford to make a single mistake. Hao Huo's winning probability is actually higher."

"Then why?"

"Haohuo felt a sense of fear."

The brave prevail when paths cross, everyone knows this principle, but when faced with a powerful enemy who can kill you, or a terrible situation that is out of control, the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune will make people want to escape.

Those who have never experienced setbacks are more easily influenced by instinct, and when they can overcome this instinct, that is transformation!

"Fiery Fist!"

"boom!"

The rocks exploded!

Hao Huo remained in a punching stance, panting heavily, his entire body emitting white steam and heat waves.

Not far away, Loya coldly watched him. Despite being covered in blood, his aura was even more fierce than before, as if he didn't care about his own condition at all.

Doesn't this guy feel fear?

Hao Huo instinctively took a half step back. When he realized his weakness, anger made his muscles swell and his veins bulge.

"Hao Yan·Punch!"

An even larger fist of fire roared as it charged toward Loya!

"Fully flawed!"

This time, Loya did not dodge, but instead raised Rain Cutter with both hands, coldly staring at the incoming fist of fire.

Although it appeared more ferocious on the surface, it was far weaker than the previous air blast; this punch lacked a firm belief in victory.

The blade falls!

"One-Sword Style: Sky Slash!"

The flames split open!

A blue wave of light was imprinted on Hao Huo's body!

"puff!"
