"That Rifan, what kind of power did he help Moria gain?"
"Why didn't Zephyr-sensei's fist penetrate his defense?"
Shuzo clenched his fists and watched the fight between Moria and Zephyr with wide eyes.
"It is indeed a bit strange, although some Zephyr-sensei attacks hit Moria's body, which he defended with armament haki."
"But there are times when Zephyr-sensei's fist hits Moria when didn't have time to use Armament Haki."
"But these attacks actually didn't have the desired effect? What's going on?"
Momonga frowned, looking very puzzled.
"Has Moria ever had such a strong physical defense?"
"No, he should not have such ability."
"Strange, I always feel that this force seems a little familiar."
Gion rested her chin on one hand, and fixed her eyes on Zephyr and Moria.
"Sister Hina, you have been trained by Rifan."
"Do you know what happened to Moria?"
Ain tugged at Hina's sleeve and asked suspiciously.
With Ain asking, Gion, Momonga and Shuzo all looked at Hina.
"Hina, have you also mastered a strong defense?"
After thinking for a while, Gion asked.
"Hina does have a stronger defense than before."
"However, this should be directly related to the strengthening of Hina's system.
Hina nodded and replied.
During Rifan's training, Hina naturally felt her strong defense.
But she only thought it was because of her own physical enhancement, and didn't think of other special circumstances.
No wonder, after all, Rifan did not tell Hina that her physical enhancement was due to the Germa 66 exoskeleton.
"Hina, do you mind if I run a test?"
Gion took Hina's hand and thought of asking.
"It doesn't matter."
Hina nodded in reply.
Gion got Hina's response, and she didn't talk nonsense. With her right hand pointing like a knife, she gathered Armament Haki and quickly slashed across Hina's palm.
Sash!
As a sharp sound fell, Gion's hand had already passed Hina's palm.
"This is?!"
Momonga also looked at the situation of Hina and Gion. Seeing Hina's unwounded palm, his eyes widened immediately.
Gion's previous action was even many times more powerful than a sharp dagger slashing across his palm.
And Hina did not make a defensive posture.
Under such circumstances, Hina's palm is actually unscratched, which naturally makes him quite surprised.
"Even if your system becomes stronger, the skin is hit by a sharp weapon."
"There should be scars too."
"Gion Vice Admiral, I don't know why, but I think the power of Hina and Moria looks familiar.
"But I can't tell where it looks familiar."
Momonga frowned and said.
"Germa 66."
Gion narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a low voice.
"What?!" Momonga was taken aback, "Germa 66... 's technology?!"
"Yes, there are indeed some similarities."
"Hina, did Rifan biologically modify you?"
Momonga looked at Hina in shock and asked.
"There is no such thing."
"Hina doesn't remember that Rifan has used the power of technology to transform Hina."
Hina shook her head and said.
"Is that so? Am I guessing wrong?"
Momonga frowned.
"Perhaps, it could just be that Hina's powers are similar to those wielded by those cadres at Germa 66.
"Of course, it's also possible that Rifan modified her when Hina didn't notice."
"If you have a chance, ask someone from Germa 66 to make a confirmation."
Gion let go of Hina's hand, squinted her eyes and looked at Nojiko who was doing warm-up preparations.
She wants to see if Nojiko has the same high defense as Moria and Hina.
Gion knows more about Hina than Momonga.
She understands that Rifan and Hina have a deeper communication relationship.
If one day Hina fell asleep because she was too tired after the exchange.
Rifan has the opportunity to transform Hina.
So Gion has not completely dispelled the idea that Hina and Moria hold the power held by the Germa 66 cadres.
Of course, this is just Gion speculation.
To confirm this idea, the senior management of Germa 66 needs to confirm it.
'So I hope Zephyr-sensei can prove whether Nojiko also has the same defensive power as Moria.'
Gion thought to herself.
However, although Gion had a good idea, in the ensuing battle, Nojiko did not have the desire to play around.
With her Observation Haki with the future-seeing.
Plus the cooperation of Moria.
Nojiko didn't need to use her body to resist Zephyr's fist at all.
"Well, let's get started."
Nojiko bounced twice on the plateau, and suddenly, her body disappeared in place.
And when she appeared again, she had already come to Zephyr's side.
"HAKOKU!"
Nojiko's eyes flashed red, and she carried the powerful Armament Haki in her right hand, rolling up a strong wave and hitting Zephyr's mechanical arm.
With the cooperation of Observation Haki, who can predict the future, Nojiko found an excellent opportunity to enter the battlefield.
Although Zephyr discovered the arrival of Nojiko.
But under Moria's restraint, he couldn't find a chance to avoid Nojiko's attack at all.
He only had time to slightly raise his mechanical arm to block Nojiko's attacking direction, before he was sent flying by Elbaf technique again.
bang!
Zephyr flew out of the warship again.
More cracks appeared in the hard mechanical arm in an instant.
