Chapter 636

"Shut up!!! Ifrit Jambe: Boeuf Burst!!!"

Sanji combined the "exoskeleton," "strength," and "speed" gained from lineage factor modification with his own Armament Haki to develop this move. In this state, his body becomes tougher than before and can withstand higher temperatures, allowing him to deliver kicks with higher heat and power than Diable Jambe. When using Ifrit Jambe, blue flames with higher temperatures are generated around his lower legs.

"Neck Meat! Shoulder Meat! Shoulder Loin! Rib Meat! Loin! Belly Meat! Tail Meat! Thigh Meat! Shank!!!"

Unfortunately, he didn't land a single kick.

"Keep going, you almost kicked me!"

Mockery maxed out.

Just as Sanji was rolling up his sleeves in anger, ready to fight Kizaru for three hundred rounds, a powerful drum sound—or perhaps... a heartbeat—came from deep within Diterre Island.

Thump thump~

Thump thump~

Thump thump~

This drum sound became louder and clearer, penetrating the earth, penetrating the air, and reaching everyone's eardrums.

"What is this sound?"

"Is Straw Hat Luffy still alive?"

Jinbe, Zoro, and Sanji's expressions were filled with ecstasy. They knew it! Luffy wouldn't fall so easily!

"Rumble~"

Earth-shattering, Luffy, with "steam ribbons" wrapped around his neck and limbs, rushed out from the rift, holding his forehead and laughing: "Hahahahahaha! This is so interesting! Uncle Karl, you're really amazing!"

"Holy Arbiter" Karl stroked his chin, wondering if this was the legendary "sit-up."

However, Karl didn't expect to defeat Luffy with just one fatal attack. That wasn't very realistic. Luffy in Nika form was indeed fierce like a war god.

"Uncle Karl, let's continue this duel! It's so interesting, I will definitely enjoy the fun of this battle!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy spread his hands and lifted them upward. The surrounding ground was lifted like plasticine, forming a relatively abstract slingshot base. Luffy used his hands as the rubber band, held the support points on both sides, and kept moving backward.

"Gomu Gomu no... White Rocket!!! BIU!!!"

Watching Luffy rushing toward him at high speed, Karl raised Raven and threw several huge flying slashes in Luffy's direction.

"Swish swish swish~"

"Useless, useless, useless!" Luffy shouted while deflecting Karl's flying slashes, shouting loudly: "Gomu Gomu no... Lion Rocket Launcher!!!"

Fists retracted into his body to store power, then launched!!!

Just as he was about to attack Karl, Karl suddenly dissipated into light particles and appeared beside Luffy, backhanding Raven entwined with golden lightning toward Luffy!

Sss~

"AAAAAAHHHH!! So painful!"

Luffy clutched his back and fell to the ground, blood gushing out. This cut was deep enough to see the bone, and Luffy rolled on the ground in pain.

But not long after, Luffy stood up as if nothing had happened. Looking again, the wound had almost healed. This left Karl speechless.

Awesome!

"What a fast blade, but I will definitely hit you. You can't escape!"

"Gomu Gomu no... Hydra!!!"

Shoo shoo shoo~

A sky full of fist shadows attacked Karl. Karl had no choice but to enter the "intangibility" state again to avoid being hit by Luffy's fists.

While intangible, Karl also kept approaching Luffy.

"I don't believe I can't hit you!!! ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!"

Luffy's fists became a bit more violent, and Karl's phantom was almost beaten into "powder." ===== CHAPTER 638 =====
