When Observation Haki breaks through to the advanced level, it gains the ability to foresee the future.
At this moment, Bob chose to halt his attack on Redfield.
He stood tall, eyes closed, his Observation Haki enveloping the entire battlefield, seemingly on the verge of solidifying.
Everything around him became crystal clear.
All the surroundings were continuously transmitted into Bob mind like files being transferred on a computer.
His five senses became exceptionally sharp at this moment, surpassing their previous level.
Even the breathing of the distant marines could be heard distinctly.
In Bob ears, every movement was under his control.
Redfield, who had landed to the side, watched Bob with a furrowed brow, puzzled by his sudden cessation of attack.
He didn't know what Bob was up to, but he guessed that he must be preparing some powerful move and couldn't afford to let his guard down.
Suddenly.
Bob felt it.
Not only everything around him now, but also the scene of the next second.
This was the new ability of Observation Haki—foreseeing the future by one second.
And that one second was enough, In an instant, Bob moved.
The tip of his foot tapped the ground, causing it to explode, revealing a crater dozens of meters in diameter, with dense cracks spreading in all directions.
"Whoosh!"
In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of the Redfield, but Bob attack did not land.
Instead, he had already locked onto a position at his two o'clock direction.
The figure before him was just an afterimage.
"Swish!"
At the moment Redfield fled to that position.
Bob figure had already arrived, his whip-like leg lashing downward.
Just as the Redfield landed on that spot.
He sensed Bob incredibly fast, afterimage-laden calf sweeping toward his face.
Instantly.
His expression changed, and he hastily fled in another direction.
Seeing this, Bob merely sneered.
The whip leg did not complete the attack because he had already predicted again.
At the eight o'clock direction, Redfield figure would appear there.
Bob was well aware that success couldn't be achieved in one attempt.
Because while he was predicting the location, Redfield must also be predicting his position.
So he needed to use continuously increasing speed and this one-second foresight to match the Redfield Observation Haki ability.
Not long after.
The figures of the two intertwined dozens of times on the battlefield.
During this process, Redfield felt increasingly strained.
Every time he landed in a position, Bob figure would close in on him in advance, then he would need to flee again.
And with each appearance, the closer Bob figure got to his landing spot.
"Six o'clock direction!"
Still in pursuit, Bob mind flashed this scene without the slightest hesitation.
Clenching his fist, his figure directly swept toward that position.
In the meantime, Redfield had already landed at that spot.
However, as soon as he landed he saw a fist the size of a sandbag slowly enlarging before his eyes.
He sensed Bob attack, but... it was already too late to dodge.
Instantly, he was filled with dread.
"Bang!"
A dull sound echoed, the sound of flesh colliding.
A red figure, like a cannonball being thrown, shot straight through the air.
"Boom!"
The impact struck a clump of earth, piercing through it instantly, sending dirt and stones flying in all directions. Yet, his momentum didn't falter in the slightest.
After crashing through several abandoned buildings in mid-air, he finally managed to come to a halt.
At this moment.
The face of Redfield was already covered in blood, his red robe tattered, and the two small braids in his hair nowhere to be seen.
His hair was disheveled, hanging over his shoulders, and he was continuously spitting out blood from his mouth, looking utterly disheveled.
In this state, even his own mother wouldn't recognize him! Standing up, Redfield looked towards Bob in the distance. Despite his bloodied face, one could still see the shock in his eyes.
Because in his entire life, no one had ever truly managed to land a direct hit on him.
Recalling the earlier battle, Bob initial performance, and his subsequent actions.
He suddenly thought of something.
Every time he had positioned himself earlier, it seemed as if Bob had anticipated it in advance.
This was his unique ability to foresee events. Could it be that Bob also possessed the ability to foresee the future?
But why didn't he used it from the beginning?
Suddenly, a possibility dawned on him.
Bob had comprehended this ability during their battle.
In other words, his Observation Haki had broken through to an advanced level.
At this thought, Redfield pupils constricted sharply, and a mix of shock and fear surged within him.
He felt that he might die here today.
He had already taken one punch, and his body was severely injured. If another punch landed, he would surely perish on the spot.
And Bob, with such an ability, would deliver the second punch immediately.
These thoughts flashed through the Redfield's mind in an instant.
Without any hesitation, Redfield turned and fled into the distance.
But Bob would never let him go.
The moment he stood up, Bob moved, chasing after him and Redfield knew that Bob would come to finish him off.
With all his strength, he flipped his hand and unleashed a massive sword slash.
The target wasn't Bob, but Kaido, who was sitting on the ground at that moment.
Kaido, who had just stood up, seemed to sense something and turned to look.
A sword slash carrying a destructive aura was heading straight for him.
"Holy shit!" Kaido shouted, his eyes wide open.
No words could describe his feelings at that moment.
Just as he had stood up, he was met with such a terrifying sight. Anyone would be overwhelmed.
Seeing the sword slash about to hit him, Kaido knew he was done for, as there was no time to dodge.
However, in the next moment.
A thin figure suddenly appeared, blocking in front of him, and with a single punch, dispersed the sword slash.
"Bob!" Kaido looked at the figure before him, with black hair and black clothes, and a short stature.
He recognized him instantly.
At this moment, Kaido looked at this incredibly thin figure back and felt an overwhelming sense of security.
Bob, who had dispersed the sword slash, turned his gaze towards where Redfield had been.
But there was no one there.
The moment Bob had rushed to Kaido side, Redfield had already fled.
"What a slippery eel!" Bob muttered to himself.
He turned back to look at Kaido, who was still somewhat shaken, and scanned him.
He noticed that Kaido injuries had stabilized and were no longer worsening.
In fact, he was in much better condition than when he had just been sent flying earlier.
This must be Kaido physical constitution and Devil Fruit ability automatically healing his injuries.
"Feeling the disparity in the world, aren't you?"
Seeing Kaido in a somewhat disheveled state, Bob raised an eyebrow and said.
Hearing this, Kaido chuckled and stood up.
He looked at Bob and said sincerely, "Thank you!"
