146. Real power of Thor

146. Real power of Thor

Augur's loss of one eye wasn't exactly a disadvantage at this point. He wasn't hurt anywhere else except for the neck part. And thus, with that pain too, he was able to fight. People in One Piece really had great durability. Ken was lucky that he had the body of a god, or else he would have been done for if he was fighting for endurance against this guy alone; forget about the battle of endurance with Zoro.

Even with his single eye, Augur was able to deflect the bullets. Meanwhile, Ken, who could hear everyone speaking and moving on the island with his Observation Haiku, could tell that two people were running towards them. One was Jesus Burgess, and another was Doctor Q. Surprisingly, when Ken tried hearing Blackbeard, he couldn't.

It was as if something was blocking him.

"Is Observation Haki too powerful, or is his fruit stopping me?" Did he even have Observation Haki?" Ken thought to himself. Even though he couldn't hear the words of Blackbeard, he did know where he was. He was busy eating a pie and drinking an ale in the bar. He knew this because there was nobody in any of the bars that had served a pie, and only Blackbeard could order such an absurd thing in a bar, and that too in one of the most questionable islands of One Piece.

Blackbeard was so busy in his own world that he had forgotten about his crew.

Ken didn't stop attacking Augur as he went to a close range fight with him. Augur seemed to know a bit of armored hak, but even then he was not so good at it. So after a few moves, Augur had bruises all over his body.

"Augur, you need to learn more."

Ken said as he gave a flying kick on the left side of his face. Augur wanted to dodge it, but his body was in too much pain to respond in the desired way. Augur was thrown back in the attack.

*thud*

"Jesus Burgess. They say you have been roaming around proclaiming that you are the strongest man alive. Let me see if you are that good." Ken replied and used his other hand to punch Burgess.

Burgess always had a smile on his face, even after getting stopped by Ken. But before he could smile wider listening to the words of Ken, he was hit on his lower abdomen with immense force. Ken used his full Thor power to strike back at Burgess.

Until this time, Ken had always used lightning to take care of his opponents. He had never used his full bodily power. Ken was practicing Armament Haki, and he always believed using his full body power would just hold him back in his learning curve. People tend to forget that Thor actually took the full force of a dying star into his whole body and came out just fine.

Thus, for the first time, he used the power of his bodily strength. And suffice it to say he wasn't disappointed. Ken's punch was so strong that even a shockwave traveled that started from Burgess's back and traveled far, which destroyed the nearby trees.

Burgess immediately coughed up blood. Ken had destroyed the internal organs for sure. Burgess's eyes almost became white from losing consciousness. Ken didn't stop himself and, using the same force, he gave a side kick at Burgess.

Augur, who had gotten up, also took a shot at Ken in order to stop him, but it was too late. Burgess received the kick on his right abdomen and his right hand. The kick alone broke all of the bones in his hand and his rib cage. Burgess wasn't even able to scream in pain. This attack alone was sufficient to knock him out.

Meanwhile, the bullet struck Ken's body and fell off like nothing. Even modern bullets couldn't do anything to the body of Thor. Forget about these old-fashioned round bullets. Augur got scared. When Ken dodged his bullet before, he thought Ken was being afraid of his bullets, but it was just a trap.

Burgess had already fallen, and he was sure that he would die if Ken delivered one more attack. The masked man came and just made a joke out of two people from the newly formed crew.

"How much did the Whitebeard Pirates pay you to deal with us?" Augur said as he reached between Burgess and Ken. He was ready to fight to the death with this unknown guy.
