"Why think so much? This arrogant human, let me blast him to smithereens!" Teapot Shukaku said, brimming with killing intent.
"Wait, raccoon dog, let us do it this time!" Nami said.
"Are you serious? If anything happens to you, Boss and Big Sister will skin me alive!" Shukaku immediately became nervous.
"Relax, nothing will happen. We have the strongest secret treasure given by the captain!" Nami said confidently.
Finally, after a round of drawing lots, Vivi and Karu got the first battle opportunity.
"The strength of the Ox and the healing of the Horse. Go ahead and fight, Vivi!" Nami handed the Ox Talisman and Horse Talisman to Vivi.
"Understood!" Vivi held the Ox Talisman, feeling an endless surge of power.
"Bastards, Blue Sea people, don't joke around! Who do you think I am? I am the priest who presides over the Ordeal of String with a 3% survival rate—Azure Knight Shura!!!" Seeing the frail Vivi actually preparing to face him alone, Azure Knight Shura was so angry his nose twisted.
"Karu, let's go!" The bamboo-copter on Karu the Fast-Running Duck's head spun, carrying one person and one duck soaring into the sky.
"Enough! Since you are determined to seek death, then I shall grant it to you!" Azure Knight Shura sneered and thrust his knight's spear forward fiercely.
The next second, something shocking happened to Shura.
Vivi, sitting on Karu's back, didn't make a move.
Instead, her mount, Karu, thrust out a shining leek.
Shura's spear tip collided with Karu's leek tip.
Like a needle point against an awl, astonishing light burst forth.
The stalemate was only for a brief moment.
When Vivi pressed the Ox Talisman onto Karu's body, Karu's Meteor Rush's power instantly surged.
Boom! Whoosh!
Azure Knight Shura, along with his mount San Zhang Bird Pan Tui, were sent flying backward simultaneously.
Shura: "???" Ah??? What's happening?
I, a priest, was sent flying by a duck using a leek?
My strength is actually inferior to… a duck.
Just as Azure Knight Shura was shocked and dumbfounded, he heard Karu the Fast-Running Duck quack twice, actively pursuing, wielding a leek-sword with fierce, tiger-like winds.
A series of wild swings struck San Zhang Bird Pan Tui's head, making it dart left and right, buzzing loudly.
Seeing that it was about to fall, Azure Knight Shura finally came to his senses and blocked with his long spear.
However, just then, Shura suddenly noticed that Vivi, who was on Karu's back, was gone.
The sunlight was blocked by a slender shadow.
A fatal sense of threat descended from above.
Azure Knight Shura's expression changed drastically, and he quickly raised his spear to block.
At the same time, blazing flames were released from the Heat Dial, coiling around the spear, attempting to make Vivi retreat in fear.
However, he underestimated Vivi's determination; even facing the blazing flames, Vivi's delicate fist showed no sign of retreating.
Vivi no longer wanted to be just a protected vase; she also wanted to fight and be useful.
Bang!
Vivi's heavy punch, empowered by the Ox Talisman, collided with Shura's flaming long spear.
The scorching flames burned Vivi's fair skin, but the moment the damage was inflicted, the Horse Talisman glowed brightly.
The pain nerves didn't even have time to transmit the pain before the wound healed as good as new.
With the Horse Talisman in hand, Vivi could be said to be immune to all attacks, needing no concern for the enemy's attacks, only needing to unleash her own power.
Bang! Bang, bang, bang!
Vivi's heavy punches continuously rained down, forcing Priest Shura and his mount San Zhang Bird to retreat repeatedly.
Finally, with a crisp crack, Priest Shura's flaming long spear was forcefully shattered by Vivi.
When Vivi's fist landed on his face, Priest Shura felt nothing but endless regret.
He regretted underestimating Vivi and Karu, thinking they were rookies and being careless, not setting up his Specialties rope cloud traps.
One wrong step, every step wrong.
However, what Priest Shura didn't know was that even if he had prepared beforehand, the final outcome would not have changed in the slightest.
Boom! Rumble!
Accompanying a thunderous boom, the forest ground exploded, forming a deep pit.
Azure Knight Shura and his mount, San Zhang Bird, lay sprawled in the center of the pit like dead dogs, heavily injured and unable to rise.
"Hoo~ Nicely done, Vivi!"
Nami whistled and high-fived Vivi.
"That was a clean and decisive battle!"
Kuina nodded seriously.
"What an amazing Princess, isn't she~"
Robin said with a smile.
"No, no, no, it's all thanks to Roland's miraculous talismans!"
Vivi scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Hmm? There's still a mouse? Hey, old man on the Pegasus over there, are you an accomplice of this so-called God Official? Do you want to avenge him?"
Teapot Shukaku, constantly vigilant of his surroundings, spotted the armored knight riding a spotted Pegasus in the sky.
"No! No, no, I am not Enel's subordinate!"
The former God of Skypiea, Sky Knight Gan Fall, waved his hands repeatedly, indicating he had no ill intentions.
Not long ago, while resting in the clouds, he noticed an unusual disturbance from the direction of God's Island.
He immediately rode his Pegasus, Pierre, to the scene and then witnessed an unforgettable sight.
He watched as the delicate young woman, with her slender fists, powerfully defeated the Cang Tian Knight, whom even he couldn't beat!!!
"My name is Gan Fall, young ladies, you must be from the Blue Sea. Without further ado, I will lead the way now; you must leave Skypiea as soon as possible!"
