"Hum hum hum..." Tokikake laughed strangely like a pig, "Jotaro, you look so confident, that's because you haven't used time stop yet, right."
"Hey hey! Don't show that kind of expression, I already said it, Peach Rabbit has already reported your ability to headquarters."
"Among them is also this one ability of stopping time! Now the whole world already knows that you possess the ability to stop time."
"You shady guy, to possess such a sinister ability really isn't surprising at all."
"But this great lord dared to come find you, naturally I'm not afraid of your ability!"
"To be honest, you should be thankful you didn't use time stop at the start, otherwise right now you would already be a corpse lying on the ground!"
Jotaro's face was very unsightly, countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, his fist clenched tighter and tighter.
This world possesses that heaven-defying thing called Observation Haki, plus all sorts of strange and bizarre Devil Fruits.
People here, whether in perception or imagination, have all been well trained.
The stronger a person is, the easier it is to see through his trump cards.
Against this type of opponent, the chance he has to use time stop as a surprise is only once.
After that one time, even if he still has opportunities to use it again, these kinds of people will think up all sorts of countermeasures.
Inside stopped time, whether he can even get close to them is another matter, and even if he does, it might put him in danger.
Tokikake's words had already made him worried, whether next he should use time stop.
He couldn't judge whether Tokikake was bluffing him, or really that confident.
Tokikake didn't give him much time to think, pounding hooves charged forward, dust flying up behind him.
Each stomp would cause the ground to shake once.
"Go die! I'll give you a quick one!"
This was a monster in myth that could easily destroy a kingdom.
With Tokikake's current strength, he couldn't completely control this fruit either.
In complete beast form, his emotions would become more and more violent, very easy to lose control and rampage, becoming a mere engine of destruction.
'Must hurry and finish him off!' Tokikake felt his head growing heavier.
'If this drags on, I'll definitely lose control, if I carelessly destroy Alabasta that won't be good.'
Alabasta is a member country of the World Government, if he carelessly destroyed it, he would be in serious trouble.
"This beast!"
Looking at Tokikake charging fiercely at him, Jotaro bit his teeth, Star Platinum attached to his body, and suddenly lifted one leg.
"Ora!"
Borrowing the recoil, he leapt into the air.
"He's already become a complete beast through and through, just as he said, other than running I basically have no other way."
But how long could he keep running, Tokikake's speed and stamina both far exceeded him.
Even if he used time stop to pull open distance, it would only be ten seconds, in the blink of an eye the latter could catch up.
He might not be able to last until the next time stop.
BOOM!
Tokikake's move "Hecaton Fierce Assault" missed, his forehooves suddenly halted, the sandy ground appeared a bottomless huge pit, only then barely stopping.
"Hum hum… you think escaping into the air makes you safe?"
"Fool, up there you can't dodge my attack, you're simply just my target! Ao ao hahaha…"
Tokikake lifted his huge boar head aimed at Jotaro, between the two raised tusks air rapidly compressed, and finally combined with his roar was released.
The technique also mixed with refined Haki, like a jet-black beam of light.
The reason Jotaro leapt into the air was entirely because of his battle instinct.
He clearly understood the success rate of running away was zero, now the only option was to fight with his back to the wall.
"Can only do it like this!"
His eyes shone through the terrifying energy closing in on him, Jotaro took a deep breath, stretched out his hand pointing forward.
"Star Platinum!"
"Time, stop flowing!"
No matter whether Tokikake had countermeasures or not, he had to stop time now!
The colors of the whole world faded in an instant, the pitch-black beam froze in front of Jotaro.
He slightly tilted his body to avoid this strike, then without any pause, inside the frozen time, rushed straight at Tokikake.
Tokikake's body was densely covered with bristle-like spines like steel needles, and on top of them Haki was flowing.
Jotaro silently took a glance.
"I must concentrate firepower on one place, only then can I seriously injure him!"
Even if what he was about to do was cruel, there was not the slightest mercy in his eyes.
"Star Finger!"
Jotaro gathered all his Haki into Star Platinum's fingers, the sharp two fingers directly stabbing at Tokikake's eyes.
Under the blessing of the Devil Fruit, Tokikake's physical toughness was terrifying.
The instant the two fingers touched the eyes, Jotaro even felt resistance.
Even fragile eyes could actually have such strength.
Puchi!
But Star Platinum still easily pierced them.
"Ora ora ora ora ora!"
As blood spattered, Star Platinum targeted Tokikake's only wound with a flurry of punches.
By attacking only one place, the injury expanded further.
"Ora!"
Time began to flow.
"Awooo~"
Tokikake let out a howl of pain, his forehead blood-drenched, his eyes black, he couldn't see anything.
All four hooves stomped wildly on the ground, the boar body rampaged recklessly, then like a collapsing giant mountain he rolled on the ground continuously.
"It worked!"
Jotaro let out a breath.
As long as he waited for the next time stop, then attacked another place, he was confident he could beat beast-like Tokikake unconscious.
Tokikake's roars gradually grew weaker, and finally completely subsided.
Jotaro thought he was recovering his breath, but unexpectedly he let out wild laughter.
"Ao hahaha… Jotaro!!!"
"I should have said it before, you'd better not attack me in this form, otherwise the unlucky one will be you!"
Jotaro's long brows furrowed slightly, looking at him puzzled.
He did indeed remember Tokikake saying that, only thought the other was putting on airs.
Backed into a corner, how could he not counterattack!
Tokikake wobbled up, a wicked smile on his boar face.
"This form's most terrifying ability is to gather the damage the enemy caused me into my body, then return it to the opponent multiplied by ten."
As he spoke, Tokikake exited complete beast form, returning to human-beast form.
He raised his hand, in his palm condensed a scarlet light sphere.
At the same time, the terrifying injuries Jotaro had caused on him before were visibly healing.
All the damage gathered into the Unyielding Light Sphere, and was continuously magnified by him.
"The damage returned to the enemy must be damage personally caused by the enemy."
"From the start I wanted you to attack me. But judging by that rumor, you really are a sly guy."
"If I fought you with this thought in mind, surely I'd be easily seen through by you."
"But still, you lost one move to me!"
