Chapter 79 – 78: Battle between swordsmen (2)

———————

Chapter- 78

———————

In a single clash, Yoriichi can confirm what he was thinking is right as this zombie’s strength is on another level

Immediately after Yoriichi deflected the Zombie’s sword attack, the zombie turned around to attack Yoriichi again without any delay at all

Yoriichi already saw this coming as he defended himself using his sword from the zombie’s fierce aggressive attacks

In the clashes of swords, Yoriichi noticed how Zombie was fighting aggressively without stopping

Not only that even though the zombie looks aggressive but Yoriichi seems to find very few openings for him to counterattack like the zombie is attacking and defending at the same time

This is enough for Yoriichi to know that this zombie when he was alive must be a very experienced swordsman

*clash* *clash* *clash* *clash* *clash* *clash*

Yoriichi and the zombie both clashed No-stop, if they had normal blades then sure those normal blades would have already been broken into pieces by this intense clash of swords

But both Yoriichi and zombie blades aren’t ordinary, as no matter how fierce they clashed, their blades still didn’t take any damage at all

…..

On the sidelines…

Robin who was standing away from the place where Yoriichi and the zombie were fighting, stared at them with wide-open eyes

‘I can’t believe what I am seeing!’ Robin couldn’t help but say this in her mind as she didn’t though there would be a zombie who could fight you Yoriichi

Seeing this intense clash, Robin couldn’t help but want to help Yoriichi since right now seeing such a battle in front of her, she didn’t know whether Yoriichi would win or lose

She felt that the zombie was giving her a hard time with Yoriichi which is why she wanted to help but she didn’t know how to help him

If she tried to help Yoriichi then there is a chance that she might burden him, which is the reason she couldn’t take a step forward into the battle as she kept thinking of ways to help him

“Phee ~” Ember poked out her head as she spoke like she was comforting Robin and telling her to not worry too much

Aren’t you worried about your master?” Robin asked Ember as she couldn’t help but think after seeing Ember not looking like she was worried for her master

“Phee~!” Ember speaks loudly as she says she is not worried for him at all after all she is the one who lived with Yoriichi on that island

This is the reason Ember knows what Yoriichi is capable of and understands that kind of opponent is no match for Yoriichi if he gets serious

Robin couldn’t help but look at Ember with suspicion in her eyes since she didn’t know why Ember was not worried about Yoriichi at all

Robin stopped looking at Ember and turned back face towards the intense battle going on between Yoriichi and the zombie

…

Back to Yoriichi….

Yoriichi after clashing with the sword comes to realise that if he fights like then surely it will take a long time to defeat him because of how offensive as well as Defensive this zombie is fighting

Another thing he realised that is a zombie won’t lose stamina only due to the fact he is not alive, only people who are alive need oxygen to live meaning his fierce attacks won’t stop until Yoriichi is not defeated

With that in mind, Yoriichi decided to try something different as he swung his sword with more strength than the previous strike

Which caught Zombie off guard for a second, as within that second Yoriichi immediately used his conqueror Haki to attack the zombie

But to Yoriichi’s surprise zombie didn’t stop fighting as zombie directly went to strike the next second

Yoriichi couldn’t help but think how tough this zombie was because he knew his conqueror Haki was effective against him still the zombie went to attack the next moment without waiting

He wanted to use Armament Haki to attack Zombie since it would be swift as he coated his sword with Armament Haki

No matter how much he tried to hit the zombie’s body, the zombie didn’t let that happen since the zombie always clashed with his own sword against Yoriichi’s sword preventing Yoriichi to not let his sword touch his body

Yoriichi could tell that Zombie was now fighting more on the defensive side rather than going all offensive like before making Yoriichi realise that Haki was affected against him

Since zombies aren’t afraid of pain from what he has known in his previous encounters with other zombies which is why they usually only go for offensive

Right now seeing first time zombie being in such a defensive form, he comes to realise that not only haki Is Effective against this zombie-like another zombie who Yoriichi fought before but also comes to know that this zombie is not mindless and has good knowledge about swordsmanship

Lastly, the Zombie sword which Yoriichi already expected to be extraordinary but Yoriichi’s valuation of that sword increased since that sword didn’t break even when Yoriichi attacked the zombie using his sword coated with Armament Haki

But knowing this not helping Yoriichi as the zombie is preventing him from touching his body with his sword coated with Armament Haki

‘I guess I have no choice…’ Yoriichi inwardly said this in his mind with a sigh as he decided to use that ‘technique’ after seeing that simple

attacks aren’t working against him

*THUD!*

Yoriichi after a powerful swing of his sword, turned his body and then tried to kick the zombie’s body but the Zombie managed to block that kick too with his sword

Yoriichi then applied force to his leg and used the zombie as some sort of launching pad as he jumped away from the zombie

*innale*

Yoriichi took a deep breath as he closed his eyes to concentrate after landing while taking a stance and getting ready to use his technique

*exhale*

Yoriichi released his breath as he looked at Zombie with a transparent world and locked on all the weak points of the zombie

While he muttered in a low tone, “Sun breathing: Dragon Sun Halo Head Dance…”
