"Ugh."
Phil's Iron Body was broken, and he staggered backward.
Clutching his stomach, covered in cold sweat, he opened his mouth.
He wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
The crowd exclaimed, and Zeff looked over.
Seeing Phil's predicament, he said,
"Phil, step down first."
"Yes, cough, cough!"
"Sakazuki, not bad. As a Logia-type user, you haven't neglected your physical skills."
"Next, I will personally..."
Garp, who was nearby, became interested and said ahead of Zeff,
"Hahahaha, this is interesting."
"Zeff, let me do it!"
Zeff thought for a moment.
"Well, alright."
"Sakazuki, do you have any objections?"
Sakazuki wanted to feel the difference between himself and the top powerhouses, so how could he refuse?
"No problem."
After agreeing, he adjusted his posture.
And looked at Garp opposite him.
Garp crossed his arms and grinned at Sakazuki.
"Come on, kid."
Sakazuki's Crimson Lotus state exploded directly.
With a stomp of his foot, a volcanic eruption-like impact force erupted from beneath his feet.
It was three times faster than just now.
"Magma Burst!"
He arrived in front of Garp and punched him.
Garp had expected this and raised his left arm to directly punch him.
The two fists collided. *Boom!*
Endless impact force erupted from Sakazuki's fist.
The collision with Garp caused a hurricane to rage around them.
The surrounding soldiers raised their hands to block the wind, but Garp did not move at all.
He continued to grin.
"Again!"
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
*Boom, boom!*
Figures flashed in the arena.
The two men exchanged punches in rapid succession, evenly matched.
But only Sakazuki knew that after such a short time of continuous punching.
The Crimson Lotus mode consumed a lot of energy.
His condition was about to deteriorate.
The Crimson Lotus state uses the eruptive nature of magma to circulate inside the body.
So, in a short time, it can greatly increase one's own strength.
But it also consumes a lot of physical strength.
After fighting for three minutes, he had reached his limit.
If he kept it up, he would probably have to be carried out.
The figures intertwined, and Sakazuki exited the Crimson Lotus state.
His right hand turned into a magma arm, and he punched the ground.
Looking at Sakazuki, who punched the ground,
Garp remained unmoved.
"A Devil Fruit ability, huh."
Suddenly, he sensed something.
Shave!
*Bang!*
A magma blast burst out from the ground, scattering everywhere!
And the location was exactly where Garp was standing just now.
*Bang!*
*Bang!*
*Bang!*
In an instant, eighteen magma columns erupted from the ground. *Is there nothing more?* Garp, who had just flashed to the side, thought.
"Dark Hound!"
Before Garp could react, a figure made of magma appeared.
He slammed into Garp with a punch.
Instantly, the magma erupted and engulfed Garp.
"Hiss!"
"So strong!"
"Sugoi!"
"This..."
The surrounding students exclaimed.
The surrounding officers were also full of surprise, while Zeff smiled with admiration.
"Thorough thinking, step by step, not bad."
After the attack, Sakazuki exited the magma state.
He stood in place, waiting for Zeff to speak.
As for the figure wrapped in magma on the ground.
*Bang!*
The magma burst out, revealing Garp's figure inside, unharmed.
"Strong enough, kid. Join my ship after you graduate, hahahaha!!!"
"Enough, Garp, don't mislead people!"
Zeff, who was on the side, was covered in black lines and quickly stopped him.
Such a good soldier could not be swayed by Garp.
"Alright, Sakazuki, get in line."
"Yes."
Testing continued.
Only two-thirds of the original people were left.
Time flew by.
Unknowingly, it was 1484 in the Marine Calendar, and a world-shaking event broke out.
