The Limit of Longinus

When they heard the voice that implied anger ring out, everyone turned their heads to look on their own.

The slit-like eyes, the wave-like ears, the six-sided head, all the dissonant features, has pieced together to form a face that amazes the world.

It is ugly and obscene.

If the obscenity of Kizaru rooting in the inner, then the obscenity of Tokikake is the handiwork of the exterior.

Perhaps it is for this reason that he does not have many followers around him, even when he had always been rumoured to be the strongest newcomer.

Of course, this does not prevent him from being powerful.

Even if Tokikake lost to Gion because he underestimated his enemy, many people still believe that he is the strongest.

It is because everyone knows very well that Zoan is the devil fruit with the largest growth in the early stages, and Mythical Zoan species has the potential to make people grow into top powerhouses.

Because of this, when Tokikake put up the challenge, the crowd burst into uproar with arguments.

"Are these two monsters going to start a fight too? The last battle between Tokikake and Gion was over too quickly. Let's hope not this time!"

"I wonder who can win between the two of them?"

"We all know very well the strength of Tokikake. Since he suffered a loss last time, he will definitely not take it lightly this time. That fellow named Longinus has no chance of winning."

"Smartass, are your vision as good as Admiral Zephyr's? Since Admiral Zephyr ranked Longinus in the first place, it means that he is clearly above that fat pig!"

"I also think the chances of Tokikake winning are not good. Longinus is a monster with a full S rating."

"It's still Admiral Zephyr who has a good eye! You idiots watch. The boss's strength is not compared to that guy!"

Even the instructor camp is quietly talking about it. There hasn't been a monster at this level for many years, let alone a clash between monsters.

They recall that the last time this calibre clash was back in the first session with Sakazuki and Borsalino.

"Dragon, what do you think?" Zephyr asked with a smile to the man beside him.

"Longinus will win." Dragon said it with a decisive one, and after a long time, added, "He will crush him!"

A commodore who heard their talk asked in disbelief, "Vice Admiral Dragon, are you saying that... Longinus will defeat Tokikake with an overwhelming margin?"

Dragon nodded and stated sagely, "Yes."

"Longinus, who has grasped Kenbunshoku Haki, may indeed be stronger than Tokikake, but how can it be crushing? Tokikake is also a monster with an S-rank rating!"

The Commodore next to him also asked, "Although Gion previously beat Tokikake by an overwhelming margin, he was too reckless not even to use his fruit power. He can't be reckless again this time, right?"

"The S grade given to Longinus is because the rating limit is S!" explains Dragon so concisely.

"This... how is this possible?" A bunch of commodores and rear admirals are a bit hard to believe. They know that Longinus is very strong, but being this strong is too ridiculous.

As a result, they all turned their eyes to Admiral Zephyr and waited for his answer.

However, Zephyr sighed, "I just said that a large part of the reason is to give Tokikake a blow. He is a very talented child, and his previous efforts were also seen in my eyes. It's just a pity that the huge power given to him by Mythical Zoan has made him lose his focus and become gradually slack and lazy. I hope this blow will make him come to his senses once and for all!"

"Is the Devil Fruit really changing people that much? Why did the gentle and calm, humble and polite Tokikake in the past become this way now?" Zephyr sighed in his heart.

A bunch of commodores and rear admirals are shocked to hear that. Although Admiral Zephyr did not say it clearly, but the meaning of the words has not been hard to deduce that he also thinks that Tokikake will suffer a crushing blow at Longinus!

Longinus nodded and took a big step forward.

He would not naturally refuse Tokikake's call to fight.

Longinus has long known those private rumours but never thought to prove his strength by challenging each other. It is because if he could not wait to challenge each other, it would be out of line with his "hero" persona. However, if the other party takes the lead in asking for a fight, there will be no such concerns.

When Tokikake saw Longinus walk out without saying a word, he seemed to be ignoring his presence with contempt. He could not help but feel more anger in his heart, and his body rushed towards the way where Longinus was like a shell.

While his body is a bit clumsy, but Tokikake's speed still surpasses most people on the field, and it was already even a residual shadow under the full outburst.

It's just a pity that Longinus is faster than him by more than one step.

Tokikake, who was charging, was horrified to find that his charge had lost its target. The figure of Longinus had vanished abruptly from his eyes at some point.

Before he could react, the next moment, a strong wind swept in his ears. Tokikake could not help but narrow his eyes and look aside with his glances. An axe-like right leg keeps enlarge in his vision and finally covers the whole pupil.

Boom!

It was like a football being violently kicked. Tokikake's sturdy body flew straight out of the field and crashed heavily into the edge of the hills, causing a lot of dust.

"Are you kidding? Tokikake actually got knocked off with a kick?"

"When exactly did Longinus move? I didn't even react before I saw Tokikake fly out!"

Zephyr, who was stood in front of the drill ground, frowned and said in wonder, "Why didn't Tokikake change to beast form the first time? Has he really gotten cocky to this point?"

A stout figure rushed out of the dust that concealed the view.

The only thing visible is that Tokikake's limbs have become more stout, and his body is somewhat swollen, giving him a sense of lack of synchrony.

"Human-Beast form? Do you think you can beat me with this level of improvement?"

The three forms of Zoan actually have their own strengths and weaknesses. The human form is flexible, the beast form is strong, and the human-beast form is both, but he can only maximize the unique ability of Mythical Zoan in the beast form.

No matter how amazed Longinus was, the others couldn't figure it out. From the brief clash just now, they could see that the gap between Tokikake and his opponent could only be described as a huge gap. They didn't believe Tokikake himself wouldn't be able to know that he was still holding himself together at such a time and not using his ability, so couldn't this guy actually be an idiot?

"It is not your business! Wait until you've beaten me!" Tokikake, in his human-beast form, roared. Under the savage charge, even the ground was cracked into a narrow trench along the line. It is like every step could cause the ground to move.

"Although I don't know why you are doing this, but any act of holding back your strength in front of me... is an unwise move!"

Longinus appear in front of Tokikake like a flash. In the opponent's sharply shrunk pupils, he struck hundreds of punches in a moment, which all outburst at the small of Tokikake's stomach.

This time, Tokikake was not blown away but vomited out a large mouthful of blood. It was obvious that he seriously injured even the internal organs. This tragic situation made many students who were a little soft-hearted could not bear to look at it.

"Bastard, don't be too cocky..." Tokikake rushed up in a rage, yet again, sending him flying backwards twice as fast as he came.

Those commodores and rear admirals now realize that Dragon said that Longinus's S-rating was because the limit was only S.

It is clear that the strength and physique of the two are S-class. It is logical to say that after Tokikake has transformed, he will be able to surpass the other. However, the fact is the opposite, as if there is an unseen gap between the two.

If Tokikake didn't eat Zoan, who has recovery power, he could already declare the end of the battle first.

At the moment, the battle is still going on.

With the advantage of Zoan, Tokikake has been struggling all the way, and Longinus is not in a position to use too ruthless means, which in turn makes the battle stalemate.

Finally, there seems to be tired of this endless battle.

"Since you're never willing to use your abilities, there's no point in keeping this boring fight on!"

"Boring? No point? You think you're... uhhhhhhhh!" Tokikake hissed furiously but abruptly found his face wrapped in endless threads. It turned out that he could not breathe by now!

The long hair of Longinus flew like a snake wrapped tightly around Tokikake's face and bind him.

The scene, in the eyes of the crowd, can be described as horrific!
