Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Rorschach's Growth
Boom!
The ground at the restaurant's entrance shattered, and Dikalban's body was slammed headfirst into the earth.
"What... What?! The captain has... This is impossible!"
A hundred pirates crowded behind him watched the scene in disbelief, almost thinking they were witnessing an illusion.
Since they had officially set sail and become pirates, the Dikalban brothers had never experienced defeat.
This was not because their strength was truly immense, but because their coordination was like a single person; they shared a profound level of understanding.
Their bond reached the point of mental synergy, and when applied in combat, its effect exceeded the result of one plus one.
This made the Dikalban brothers capable of facing stronger opponents without being at a disadvantage.
But today...
"It's Haki!"
When the dark blue hue appeared on Rorschach's face, the fat man's expression immediately changed.
It was clear that he was an experienced pirate, familiar with the existence of Haki in this world.
But this wasn't ordinary Haki.
The Dikalban brothers had experience dealing with strong Haki users. Even though they didn't possess Devil Fruit abilities, they had naturally strong bodies, and with their special cat claw gloves, they could execute powerful combat moves that rivaled Zoan Devil Fruit users.
However, they had no prior experience facing someone like Rorschach, who dared to use his eyes, the most vulnerable part of his body, to block a claw attack.
The silver-haired man before them was strong.
"Ah! Unforgivable!"
The other Dikalban shouted in rage and shame, while his head was still buried in the ground under Rorschach's foot.
His body began to swell, with bulging veins appearing across his skin.
He roared in anger, pushing the broken earth with his arms to lift his upper body slightly, glaring at Rorschach with eyes full of fury.
"You've angered me! I don't care who you are, I'll make you pay..."
Boom! Rorschach pressed his right foot down harder on the man's head, interrupting his outburst and pushing his head deeper into the ground.
This time, the pressure was stronger, forcing the upper half of Dikalban's body entirely into the earth, leaving only his trembling legs visible.
"Release my brother, you scoundrel!"
"Why are you standing there like fools? Attack him! Kill him!"
The other Dikalban charged again, his body appearing larger and his strength seemingly magnified.
He lunged with his cat claws, tearing through the air in front of him, producing a sharp whistling sound as he aimed for Rorschach's chest.
But before Rorschach could respond, he suddenly noticed the young girl Hibari raising her leg like a whip and striking the stunned Dikalban in the jaw.
Boom!
Despite her small size, Hibari's strength was immense, sending the heavy Dikalban soaring two or three meters into the air.
"Oh no! Unforgivable! Unforgivable!"
Dikalban yelled frantically, his eyes red and his body swelling again as his energy erupted. Like a raging tiger, he rushed toward Rorschach on all fours.
"Don't destroy the restaurant; I don't have enough money for compensation."
Rorschach glanced at the pirates charging at him and clenched his right hand.
"Fwooosh!"
Suddenly, a fierce wind swept through the restaurant.
Invisible air currents gathered to form tangible chains, binding all the pirates rushing with their weapons, and then pulling them outside all at once.
Boom! A massive explosion echoed as the front wall of the luxurious restaurant burst open, turning into scattered debris.
The pirates, who had been bound by the invisible chains, let out terrified screams and flew out of the restaurant like scattered leaves, crashing into the wetlands outside the Soap Bubble Park.
The restaurant owner, who had just woken up, looked at the place, now in ruins, with a face filled with deep sorrow.
"Sorry, you can go to the Navy base on this island later to request compensation."
Rorschach said as his silver hair moved like snakes, suddenly extending to wrap around the neck of the fat man who was charging at him madly, then flinging him backward!
"Shhh!"
The swollen Dikalban, whose body had turned red, flew even faster than the other pirates who had flown earlier, crashing into the Mangrove Tree No. 33 hundreds of meters behind Rorschach.
As for the other Dikalban, who lay on the ground beneath Rorschach's foot, he couldn't escape no matter how hard he struggled. Rorschach's foot weighed like a mountain, pinning his head firmly.
"Impossible! Impossible! I don't care who you are; you'd better let me go right now, or I'll catch you and turn you into bait for fishing!"
Dikalban shouted stubbornly.
But the next words Rorschach spoke caused the fat man's body to tremble slightly, and his struggling movements weakened.
"Hibari, what's the background of the Dikalban Pirates? Can we get rid of them?"
Rorschach directed his question to Hibari.
In the past three months, he had spent his time solely in combat.
Rorschach hadn't learned any of the courses that new soldiers or officers were supposed to take.
Navigation, battle command, intelligence gathering, military affairs management, analysis of old and new pirate forces... He hadn't touched any of it.
This kind of training brought him a significant advantage: his combat strength increased rapidly.
But the downside was obvious.
He now knew nothing except for brute strength. For example, if asked to sail alone to confront pirates in a specific area, he might end up steering the ship far off course.
Meanwhile, Hibari and others had undergone comprehensive training that included learning these skills.
Thus, they possessed a wide range of knowledge that went beyond combat techniques.
Especially Hibari, being the daughter of Admiral Akainu, her combat talent was notable, and she had also studied many other courses thanks to the presence of Vice Admiral Tsuru, an expert strategist.
When Hibari heard Rorschach's question, she answered without hesitation:
"The Dikalban brothers are new pirates who emerged this year. They're one of the few twin pirates in the seas. In terms of strength and bounty, they rank just below the Aristo brothers."
"Only our bounty is lower! Our strength is definitely superior to theirs!"
The fat man underfoot kept shouting.
"Zzzzz."
Rorschach released bright electrical sparks from his foot, forming a large net that covered the fat man and wrapped around him tightly.
Immediately, the man's body began to tremble as if receiving an electric shock, his eyes rolled back, foam dripped from his mouth, and his limbs twitched uncontrollably.
Hibari looked at him with a hint of pity, then continued:
"Each of the brothers has a bounty of 150 million berries."
"150 million berries?"
