Chapter 635 The Gift of Destiny
Looking at "Da Runti" who was brazenly venting his momentum on the field, Adrian's eyes couldn't help but shine slightly.
Is this the special ability of the ghost clan?
When he brought Runti and Peggy Wan out of Wano before, Adrian also asked them about the innate abilities of the ghost tribe, but unfortunately he could not get an accurate answer.
The fathers of Runti and Peggywan died too early, and they could not tell much about the ghost clan;
As for the Beast Pirates that the two siblings later joined, although the boss was an out-and-out "big ghost" with a very pure bloodline, they simply looked down on the Runti siblings who had not fulfilled their potential and abilities. It was impossible to reveal any information about the abilities of the ghost clan to the two of them.
At that time, Adrian only speculated from Runti's few words that the ghost clan might possess a technique similar to [Crazy Transformation].
Now it seems that it is indeed the case!
And compared to the originally predicted "madness", the ghost tribe's innate abilities also have an "ageing" effect.
For example, Xiao Runti directly became Big Runti.
'Then why doesn't Kaido use... Oh, Kaido's reckless man doesn't need the madness talent. Anyone who can beat him can just hit the mace to death with a flat A swing. It's useless to use madness for those who can't beat him...'< br>
Adrian gathered his thoughts and returned his attention to the competition on the field.
Runti, who awakened the ghost race's natural abilities through "boiling blood", has already surpassed Guina in terms of basic attributes.
But unfortunately, battles are never limited to each other's attributes.
Otherwise, when people with low attributes fight against people with high attributes, they only need to raise their hands and surrender.
Especially the battle between swordsmen, in addition to competing with each other's strength, agility, endurance, etc., what is more important is the use of swordsmanship and tactics!
And as the name suggests...
Madness, to a certain extent, can be directly related to "low IQ"!
When "Darunti" awakened for the first time, it was obvious that he was not able to perfectly control his own abilities, and even showed quite obvious "dementia" behavior.
The swordsmanship that was originally taught to Adrian was not able to be used even one-tenth after awakening. He simply relied on his excellent physical fitness and reaction speed to fight.
Guina's swordsmanship talent is very outstanding. After witnessing the roaring birth of "Darunti", especially the inhuman and terrifying aura that erupted from "Darunti"'s body, she did not immediately act aggressively. Instead of taking risks, he played it safe and assumed a defensive posture.
Even if "Darunti" did manage to completely suppress Guina in the tens of seconds after her transformation, she even forced the opponent into danger.
However, relying on her excellent swordsmanship and a strong heart honed in the Ishin Dojo for several years, Kuina, who withstood the first few attacks of "Darunti", was able to basically protect herself.
Although it was still unable to launch a counterattack, "Darunti" was basically unable to break through Kuina's layers of sword defense.
One burst of strength will lead to failure, and three times it will be exhausted.
"Da Runti"'s eyes were red, and he relied on his body's instinct to wave the "weapon" in his hand. The snow-white sword blade broke through the air and made a sharp whistling sound.
Facing this "powerful swordsmanship" without any rules, Kuina did not dare to be careless. She held the handle of Wado Ichimonji's sword with both hands, gathered all her strength, clenched her teeth, and blocked the long sword. In front of the body, used to block.
Dang——
A buzzing sound like a bell or a bell erupted from the collision of two famous swords handed down from ancient times. The terrifying volume made the ears of several people around them buzz.
'What a powerful force, but...compared to before, the power transmitted back from the weapon has weakened! ’
A light flashed in Guina's eyes. She had been waiting for this moment!
She used both arms to push away the famous sword Ying Ju who was slashing towards her.
The next moment.
Wado Ichimonji's blade drew a perfect circular trajectory in mid-air, slashing towards the enemy's head!
But at this moment, Guina suddenly saw that Runti, who was originally looking like a madman with red eyes, had closed his eyes for some reason, and his ghost-like aura disappeared without a trace.
'Oops! ’
Kuina screamed in her heart, but how could it be so easy to take back the Wadao Yimoji she slashed with almost all her strength?
Just when Kuina was feeling desperate, two fingers with distinct knuckles firmly clamped the whistling Wado Ichimonji blade between them without any trembling.
Guina's pupils shrank to the extreme in an instant.
With just two fingers, he caught Wado Ichimonji's blade?
What a vision! What speed! What a physique!
Adrian clamped Guina's long knife between the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and with his left hand held "Big Runti" - no, now she had returned to her original normal appearance of "Little Runti" - — in my arms.
No matter what the ghost clan's innate ability is called, its duration is limited.
What's more, Runti is still young, and it's the first time she has awakened her racial abilities...
After "exploding" for less than two minutes, he fell directly into a coma.
Guina didn't care about anything else, looked at Runti who had passed out, and asked with great concern: "Is she okay?"
Love, Robin, Perona and others also immediately gathered around, and Peggy Wan knelt directly beside Adrian, looking at her elder sister with worry.
Adrian held the "girl who transformed into a ghost in two minutes" in his arms, conducted a preliminary test through his own medical skills, and then made a judgment to appease everyone.
"The awakening of talent, coupled with the continuous fierce battles, led to a coma from exhaustion. Just rest for a while."
After hearing this, the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Adrian handed the unconscious little Runti into Perona's arms. After taking the Piao Piao Fruit, she was most suitable to be a porter - ahem, she needed daily training every day.
Then Adrian looked at Guina again, his eyes lingering on her bloody palm for a moment.
The explosive power of "Darunti" is very terrifying, and the racial bonus of the ghost race is stronger than that of ordinary humans.
Even though Guina successfully withstood Darunti's explosion with her own swordsmanship, and even managed to counterattack to the limit at the last moment, the tiger's mouth of her sword-holding palm was still dripping with blood from Darunti's power.
"You are good at swordsmanship. As time goes by, the sea should have a place for you."
Adrian was generous with his praise.
Guina smiled slightly and nodded her thanks to the "Senior Brother, the World's Greatest Swordsman". Then she realized the tearing pain that was transmitted from her palms, and couldn't help but take a few breaths.
"It's just that his physical fitness is a little weaker." Adrian added.
Guina, who was already frowning slightly, had a dim look in her eyes and bit her lip lightly.
Isn't this her regret?
Guina knew very well that even if she was willing to put in hundreds of times the effort of ordinary people in the art of swordsmanship, the natural gender gap was not something she could catch up with through hard work.
"So, junior sister, are you willing to accept this meeting gift?"
Adrian's right hand lightly touched the lead-gray pocket watch, invisible fluctuations spread, and a strange-shaped Devil Fruit was lifted up in his hand and placed in front of Kuina.
"In other words, are you willing to accept this gift of fate?"
"Hiss——"
Shuangyue Niuwan gasped in air-conditioning. (End of chapter)
