Chapter 1114

"No!"

"More precisely."

"A madman!"

"An unrestrained madman."

Lei Li cursed inwardly.

Gradually.

Even his own body was covered in numerous wounds.

Lu En had shattered several of his rib bones with a single punch to the waist.

Of course.

Lu En had also sustained some injuries.

Struck by Lei Li's slash across the abdomen, a grotesque, terrifying crimson wound had opened, blood slowly oozing from it.

Exposed to the sea water's erosion…

Causing the wound to send a constant, piercing pain through him.

"Shave!"

Ignoring the wound on his abdomen, Lu En activated the Six Powers technique: Shave, vanishing into the air with Moon Step.

Instant teleportation…

In an instant,

he appeared beside Lei Li.

"Fight me face to face!"

Grinning, Lu En threw a punch.

A devastating, world-shaking punch struck the blade Lei Li had raised in time to block.

The clash of their Armament Color-armored attacks unleashed an intense burst of air.

The sea surface erupted again into towering waves…

Waves surged skyward, covering the heavens.

They tumbled down from hundreds of meters above, like a torrential downpour.

Lei Li, having blocked Lu En's punch, swung his sword in a sharp turn and brought it down hard against Lu En's back.

Without mercy,

his movement was swift and decisive.

"Good!"

Lu En was not alarmed—he was delighted.

Raising his Armament Color-armored fists, he slammed them into the incoming sword.

Boom—

A thunderous, world-shaking roar.

Terrifying shockwaves radiated outward from their bodies.

Violent energy currents churned the surrounding sea currents.

If there had been debris nearby…

It would have been instantly crushed to dust.

"Such immense power!"

"This kid must be born with divine strength."

"At such a young age, he's forced me into this situation."

"He's truly an absolute monster!"

Feeling the tremendous force surging through his blade, Lei Li's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes held a faint, somber gloom.

He felt great difficulty.

Lu En's formidable combat power filled him with overwhelming pressure.

He had not endured such an intense battle in many years.

To adjust his physical condition to peak period within a short time…

That was clearly unrealistic.

And Lu En remained constantly in peak period.

Whether in strength, speed, instinctive reflexes, defense, healing, or any other aspect, Lei Li was inferior to Lu En.

In terms of strength, speed, instinctive bodily reactions, defense, healing, and every other aspect, Lei Li was inferior to Lu En.

Lei Li could only rely on his vast combat experience to sustain the fierce exchange with Lu En.

"If we keep fighting like this, we won't settle this even after three days and three nights."

He thought to himself.

Yes!

He had a strong premonition.

If this battle continued, both sides would need at least three days and three nights to determine a victor.

And this, clearly, was not what Lei Li wanted to see.

And this, clearly, was not what Lei Li wanted to see.

Who is he?

He is none other than Roger, the Pirate King's right hand!

As the first mate of Roger's pirate crew!

Once a top-tier pirate of the old era!

Now,

To fight a mere five-year-old brat and still need three days and three nights to decide victory?

How could this be borne by Lei Li?

"This brat isn't some ordinary piece of trash."

"His strength…"

"Is certainly no weaker than Barrett's in his prime!"

"In fact, he's even stronger than Barrett was in his prime!"

"If I want to defeat him, it's nearly impossible in a short time."

Lei Li's heart sank.

He took a deep breath, turned his gaze toward the large merchant ship not far away.

Now,

He could only hope.

That Laopo could rescue the person from that ship.

Then he wouldn't need to endure a three-day, three-night stalemate against the Fist Demon Lu En, this monster.

"This old bones of mine can't take such intense combat."

Lei Li sighed helplessly.

After all,

He was no longer the famed King of the Underworld from back then!

After years of retirement, his strength, fighting spirit, and every other aspect were far inferior to his peak period.

Since retiring,

He lost the drive of a pirate.

He also lost that battle lust.

Thus,

Though his strength hadn't plummeted, it was certainly nowhere near his peak period.

Only as a pirate, living a life of razor's-edge danger, could he maintain his peak period.

But once he hung up his sword…

He lost the many threats and pressures from this sea.
