One Piece I Am White Impermanence

Chapter 27 The Battle on the Deserted Island
"By the way, who are you? I think you will be an interesting opponent, but don't die too quickly, I will be very disappointed!" Barrett said fiercely

"So much nonsense! The ground is dry and cracked!"

Crocodile shot directly coldly, squatted down and touched the ground with his right hand, and made the plants and trees on the ground dry up and cracked, making the surrounding terrain more favorable to him
"Punch me!" Barrett didn't use fancy tricks, but just came behind Crocodile in an instant, and punched him with all his strength

"Whoa"

The imagined scene of Crocodile being knocked into the air did not appear

"It's useless, I'm a natural-type rustling fruit ability user, you can't hit me." After being hit by Barrett's punch, Crocodile's body turned into sand and flowed to the ground, his face was written all over. Conceited and disdainful, his eyes were full of indifference, as if Barrett was already a dead man in his opinion
"Can't hit you? Let's try it out." Barrett's eyes flashed a ferocious look, and his right fist became extremely black and shone with luster.
"Oh!"

Crocodile was so conceited that he didn't even bother to dodge. He let Barrett's fist approach him, and then quickly hit him in the stomach. Crocodile was knocked into the air, and bright red blood spewed from his mouth.
"Ahem, how is it possible? I am a devil fruit user of nature!" Crocodile said with an incredulous expression after being knocked into the air. The severe pain made his pupils constrict, and the sweat on his forehead continued to flow down.
"That's because you are too ignorant! This is armed domineering, an ability that is necessary for the top powerhouses in the sea, but you don't seem to have reached that level... Maybe you are too weak."

"Stop rambling! Even if I don't learn the domineering you said, I can still walk on the top of the world only with the ability of the devil fruit! The arc-shaped sand dune!" Crocodile's arm became huge and turned into a crescent moon The sand blade slashed at Barrett. This move will not cause physical damage to the target, but will only absorb all the moisture from the target it touches, and will eventually cause the opponent to fall powerlessly and become a dry mummy.
"Ignorant, overestimated! Originally, I thought you would be an opponent who could excite me, but it seems that I overestimated you... You are too weak even if you don't know how to use domineering! Armed!" Barrett's attack on Crocodile directly used domineering to arm his whole body, completely ignoring the consumption of domineering. It seems that Barrett has the confidence to win this battle

"Swish"

The crescent-shaped sand blade hit Barrett, who was armed all over his body, because this move would not cause physical damage, and the devil fruit ability was blocked by Barrett's armed color, so it did not harm Barrett. special damage
"Is that the level? A limp attack is really weak. Let me teach you what strength is!"

Barrett dodges in front of Crocodile and slams down a punch, but Crocodile has long since turned into sand and fled to a distance. Barrett's blow hits the air

The current Barrett's armed domineering look is good, but the domineering look of the knowledge is much worse, so there is no way to catch up with Crocodile's escape for a while.
"Erosed Samsara!"

When Crocodile's right hand touches the ground, use Dry Crack to absorb the moisture of the creatures or objects in contact and gradually spread to the surroundings. After activation, it has the terrifying power that even rocks can be pulverized into sand. After using it, the surrounding buildings will gradually become sandy and sink. , the ground seemed to be dead, turning into a dry and cracked wasteland, and the surrounding battlefield was quickly turned into a desert by Crocodile's ability

"It's a huge attack range, but it's useless!" Barrett jumped, dodging the ability that Crocodile released on the ground, and then flew towards Crocodile, towards Crocodile's face just a punch

"Oh!"

Crocodile was directly punched by Barrett, but he was not a vegetarian. At the foot of Barrett was a desert sunflower, controlling the flow of water veins under the sand dunes, and then controlling the sand dunes to form life-swallowing quicksand generals. The enemy is buried alive, known as the "desert coffin without a tombstone"

Barrett was directly submerged under the desert by this move. Crocodile stood up, rubbed the red and swollen face from Barrett's beating, then picked up the cigar that fell on the ground, wiped it and He put it in his mouth again and took a deep breath.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa,"

The surface of the desert began to flow unnaturally. With a bang, Barrett rose from the desert and landed on the surface of the desert, not far from Crocodile.
"You are the first person to survive my trick. What's your name?" Crocodile asked Barrett after taking a sip of his cigar.

"Douglas Barrett, what about you?"

"Descendants of ghosts...my name is Sha Crocodile"

"Since this is the case, I will try my best. I hope you can hold on! Fit together!"

Barrett yelled, and then the sand continued to move towards him, and finally formed a huge thing made of sand, which resembled a mecha.

"Are you a capable person too? But it's not a wise choice to use sand here"

Crocodile narrowed his eyes and said
"Don't forget that I still have this arrogance! Armed!" The pitch-black arrogance instantly entangled the huge sand-body monster
"Although I don't know how to use this kind of thing, but judging by your appearance, using this thing will consume stamina, right? Or there is a certain amount, so let's see who has the better physical strength!"

"Don't worry! Although there are not many, it is enough to deal with you! Take the move!"

Among the huge sand-body monsters, Barrett controls it to punch Crocodile below.

"Damn it, this thing is so hard that it can't be broken, and the ability of the devil fruit has no effect on him, it seems that it can only consume him!"

"Heavy Shalan!"

Crocodile used his strength to form a sandstorm and drove slowly towards the huge sand-body monster in front of him. The sandstorm became bigger and bigger during the driving process, and everything that prevented it from advancing along the way was smashed to pieces

When Barrett saw the sand storm, he controlled it and the mech man punched it a few times, destroying the sand storm abruptly.
"Desert Sword!"

"Desert Sword!"

"Desert King Kong Sword!"

"Desert Sunflower!"

Crocodile continued to use his ability to attack the huge sand-body monster in front of him. After all, the monster formed was too big, and these attacks were difficult to avoid, so he could only bear it down abruptly, and Barrett's attack also made Crocodile Constantly dodging with difficulty, Barrett's offensive purpose is "As much as you are capable, I will punch you, if you can't, then you can punch me again, if you can't, then continue."

The two continued to consume each other, and the final result was that Barrett dissipated the entangled armed domineering, and then released the ability. The huge monster turned into sand again and slowly flowed to the ground, as did Crocodile. Squatting on the ground, panting heavily, sweat dripped off his forehead, and the cigar in his mouth had disappeared for a long time.

Looking at it this way, the two have their own strengths. After all, neither of them caused substantial damage to the other. Although Crocodile was punched twice by Barrett, the effect was not significant, and Crocodile's attack was even worse. It failed to cause damage to Barrett, it just consumed his physical strength
"You are very good, but your physical skills are very weak, and all your strength is concentrated in the fruit ability, but I advise you to learn domineering, otherwise you are just a stronger ant in that kind of place."

"No, I will challenge Whitebeard to prove that even with devil fruit alone, I can stand at the top of this world"

"Hahahaha, challenge White Beard? Is it up to you? You can only be considered as equal to me in strength and want to challenge that kind of man?"

"Wait and see!"

Crocodile left a sentence and then turned around and walked towards his own boat on the shore. The battle with Barrett did not destroy his determination to challenge Whitebeard, on the contrary.It strengthened his fighting spirit, although he failed in the end...he failed miserably, and then pinned his hopes on foreign things in despair, but now Crocodile is still a conceited pirate who only believes in his own strength That's all
