Chapter 123 - [BONUS 2] Strike While The Iron Is Hot

"Is this... an attack?"

"Is it that thing... hunger pang?"

Kenji noticed the change in Charlotte, after all, her entire aura had changed too obviously.

However, facing Charlotte, who had suddenly fallen ill and lost consciousness, the fist Kenji wielded did not hesitate in the slightest.

He even temporarily changed the direction of his attack, shifting his heavy punch towards Charlotte's head.

Strike while the iron is hot?

No, no, no, Kenji just wanted to test how hard her head was under the enhancement of the Steel Balloon trait.

Haki swirled all the way, and the heavy punch quickly struck Charlotte from a distance.

Just then, Charlotte, in her sick state, suddenly shouted loudly again.

"Meat!!"

Along with the roar, her special 'strange sound' erupted. The invisible sound waves seemed to materialize at this moment, producing an extremely strong shockwave.

The special sound was extremely powerful, capable of stunning even first-rate powerhouses, making them temporarily unable to move from their spot.

Endless Haki spread with the sound, and the terrifying Conqueror's Haki caused hearts to tremble.

At this moment, the Conqueror's Haki Infusion power on Kenji's fist exploded from a distance, fiercely colliding with the Conqueror's Haki in Charlotte's sound wave, and thick Haki traces swirled wildly around them.

At the same time, the sound spread rapidly. After all, this was a sound wave, and both its propagation speed and range were very large.

The invisible sound waves, with lightning speed, impacted and enveloped the people outside the battlefield.

In an instant, large numbers of figures, even those of Giants, suddenly froze, looking like time had stopped from a distance.

Everyone stood rooted to the spot, unable to move, and some quick-witted ones only managed to cover their ears.

Most people, at the moment of being hit by the sound impact, were stunned by the terrifying power and immediately lost consciousness, falling straight to the ground.

Dare not look directly, dare not listen, unable to move... This was the true physical state of everyone present at this moment.

Even the tall Giants, seasoned warriors, were now covering their ears with pained expressions just like ordinary humans, their axes, greatswords, and other weapons long since discarded.

The violent sound waves impacted continuously, sweeping like a gale, persistently invading all directions.

Fortunately, most of the buildings in the Giant village had no glass, otherwise, they would have been shattered instantly.

However, the village's buildings were still greatly affected. The massive wooden houses rumbled, some buildings even began to collapse, and the towering trees had their branches and leaves madly falling due to the sound wave.

Further away, the dilapidated castle on the edge of Western village, was shattered by the sound waves, causing large chunks of stone to clatter and roll to the ground.

At the center of the battlefield, Conqueror's Haki surged around Kenji, and the invisible sound wave attack formed a visible opposing airflow around him, with dark red sparks and dense Haki colliding.

In this way, he faced the sound at close range, forcefully smashing his Conqueror's Haki-infused heavy punch onto Charlotte's head.

Boom!!

The Conqueror's Haki exploded from a distance, Charlotte's pink wavy long hair was violently blown, and a burst of Haki erupted on her head.

Charlotte's entire body suddenly swayed, and the terrifying sound abruptly ceased.

Then, her tall body swayed and fell backward, hitting the ground with a "thud," kicking up thick dust.

"Is it resolved?"

Kenji withdrew his fist, his gaze piercing through the dust to look at the fallen Charlotte.

Through Observation Haki, it was clear that her state was very poor, and he could barely sense any flow of aura.

Such a state usually only occurred in cases of severe injury.

After observing for a moment, Kenji turned his gaze to the three main Homies in the field.

Zeus, the thundercloud in the sky, was still bouncing around. Originally, Kenji had aimed his left fist to attack it, but the sudden sound disrupted the battle rhythm.

At this moment, not only Zeus, but also the combined flame sword on the other side, had already separated, returning to the two Homies: Napoleon and Prometheus.

What surprised Kenji was that these three Homies, without their master's command, actually began to combine on their own.

"I remember, the components of these three Homies are quite special, Charlotte created them using her own soul."

"So they probably retained a little bit of Charlotte's personality traits?"

"Hmm, even if the soul-created Homies don't inherit the original owner's temperament, after being with Charlotte for so long after being created, they've probably picked up bad habits."

Kenji smiled slightly, raising his right fist, which was swirling with Haki again, silently aiming at the three Homies that were rapidly moving and converging in the distance.

In an instant, a terrifyingly powerful energy flickered on his fist.

"Oh no, oh no! That terrifying guy is targeting us!" Zeus, the thundercloud, being high up, was the first to sense Kenji's hostility.

The other two Homies, hearing this, noticed the energy flickering on Kenji's fist and were immediately startled.

"Faster, faster! There's no time left!" Napoleon was the most anxious, frantically urging Prometheus, who was carrying him.

The three Homies used every means and finally combined in an emergency.

However, at this moment, Kenji's heavy punch erupted with power, and the terrifying energy light burst forth with a sky-splitting momentum.

Bang!

The light of the Haki-infused punch arrived in an instant, violently crashing into the combined three Homies.

And Kenji noticed that at the last moment, the three combined Homies seemed to have fired a laser with astonishing power.

"Maser Cannon!" The combined three Homies cried out in despair.

The high-density laser, powerful enough to pierce an island, shot out and collided with the light of the punch.

The two intense lights briefly confronted each other.

Afterward, the 'Maser Cannon' laser beam was destroyed, and the combined three Homies were scattered, falling apart all over the ground.

Zeus, the thundercloud, was nearly half-destroyed, and a long, dark red Conqueror's Haki light trailed behind its thundercloud trajectory, reaching Charlotte's side.

Then, the half-remaining Zeus was grabbed by a large hand.

"Ahhh! It hurts so much, what happened? Did someone hit my head?"

Charlotte had woken up at some point, one hand clutching Zeus, the other rubbing her forehead.

At this moment, she was clearly conscious, and her hunger pangs seemed to have instantly disappeared.
