150 Chapter 150: Adrian vs Fisher Tiger

"Arlong!"

Seeing their capable brother hit by the White Ghost's ability and instantly knocked to his knees, barely able to get up while muttering words of a broken spirit, the expressions of Fisher Tiger and his fish-men street gang changed drastically. Hostility was clearly evident on their faces; many had already started cracking their knuckles and sharpening their knives.

Fisher Tiger clenched his fists, looking at Adrian with a mix of shock and anger. He demanded, "White Ghost! What have you done to Arlong?"

"Rest assured, I won't be so heartless as to directly slaughter this… cough, cough."

Noticing that little Shyarly was still standing beside him, he quickly changed his tone. "I won't do anything excessively heartless to Miss Shyarly's brother. I'm just helping him calm down a bit."

Hearing this, Fisher Tiger and the other fish-men refocused their attention on Arlong. After observing him for a while and finding no other abnormalities, they relaxed slightly. Although Arlong was still kneeling there, confessing in anguish, there was no expression of pain on his face, clearly indicating he had not suffered any physical harm.

The previously extremely nervous little Shyarly also heaved a sigh of relief. Although she did not really like this inexplicably appeared "hot-tempered fish-men big bro," she also did not want him to die because of her.

The greatest use of the Negative Ghost wasn't in battle, where it would completely break an enemy's will to fight. Instead, it was in forcing enemies to face a more cruel form of social death!

Look at Arlong now.

No matter how fierce or annoying he was before, no matter how grand his dreams were for the fish-men street, from today onward, Arlong could practically declare that his dreams and fish life had come to an end.

The Negative Ghost's effect was unparalleled!

After a moment of silence, Fisher Tiger spread his legs apart, squatted into a sturdy horse stance, and stood firmly. He clenched his right fist at his waist while his left palm was raised to eye level.

"White Ghost, although it was wrong for Arlong to attack you recklessly, as the Captain of the fish-men, I must regain our dignity when our fish brothers are bullied by others!"

Adrian became slightly more serious, calmly looking at Fisher Tiger.

"Are you sure you want to do this, Merfolk Boss? Even though you already know that the one who made the first mistake is your subordinate, do you still want to save face?"

"This is the duty of being a boss! White Ghost!"

Fisher Tiger roared, utilizing the powerful force from his legs to soar into the air. Then, concentrating all his strength on his right fist placed at his waist, he fiercely launched an attack towards Adrian.

"Fish-men Karate: Shark Tile True Punch!"

Fisher Tiger twisted his body with immense force, bringing forth a rolling momentum as his fist, the size of an ordinary person's head, fiercely swung out.

Adrian, foreseeing the attack, drew Yubashiri, covered in Haki infused with the properties of Ryūō and Black Jade. He gripped the hilt with both hands, lifting it upward, and met head-on the fish-men Karate: Shark Tile True Punch coming from Fisher Tiger!

Boom!!

The two formidable forces collided, immediately triggering rolling waves of air that caused everything in the Mermaid Cafe to clatter and collide. Lightweight items were blown into a chaotic dance in the air.

The next moment, Fisher Tiger's tall figure was suddenly sent flying backward. His proud and powerful Merfolk physique ultimately could not withstand the force of the Haki-infused strike, as he was directly sliced away by Yubashiri.

After crashing through the doors of the Mermaid Cafe, Fisher Tiger, accompanied by shells and glass shards, was directly blasted into the street outside the cafe.

"Boss!"

"Captain Tiger!"

The group of fish-men watched in disbelief as their boss was pushed back by a single sword, while Adrian remained unscathed.

"Apologies, Miss Shyarly. I'll compensate for the damage to the Mermaid Cafe."

With that curt statement, Adrian left a few mini-ghosts on the shoulders of Love and Shyarly before leaping from the cafe to the street outside, locking eyes with Fisher Tiger from a distance.

"Fish-men Boss, that level of force won't help you reclaim your so-called reputation." Adrian stated, twirling his sword with an expression somewhere between a smile and a smirk.

"That was the power of Busoshoku Haki!"

Fisher Tiger resumed his fish-men Karate stance, looking serious. Fish-men were naturally stronger than ordinary humans, and some could even rival Zoan-type Devil Fruit users. With their unique Fish-men martial arts, their physical abilities were further enhanced.

What Fisher Tiger found hard to believe was that Adrian had effortlessly blocked his full-force Shark Tile True Punch, a technique that utilized the fish-men's inherent strength.

Truly worthy of a pirate with a bounty exceeding 600 million Berries!

But the brilliance of fish-men Karate extended beyond merely tapping into their physical prowess. Fish-men and Merfolk were both the true darlings of the sea!

Fisher Tiger licked his slightly parched lips, maintaining his fist position. Utilizing the unique "webbed palm" that fish-men were born with, he sent shockwaves through the surrounding air, creating a 360-degree shockwave.

"Fish-men Karate: Arabesque Tile Punch!"

Adrian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, brandishing Yubashiri, he slashed out a tremendous snow white Flying Slash to shatter this attack!

Adrian also had some impression regarding the fish-men's unique martial art style.

Thanks to fish-men's innate affinity with water, fish-men Karate could not only control the seawater within ocean itself, it could even draw and condense the water vapor naturally present in the air atmosphere, weaponizing it to attack the opponent.

For Devil Fruit users, fish-men Karate that could influence and manipulate waterflow was quite troublesome.

As expected.

In the next moment, the water vapor existing in the air was grasped by the unique power of fish-men Karate. In Fisher Tiger's crimson rough webbed right palm, it congealed into a solid rolling water sphere.

"Fish-men Karate: Water Shot!"

Accompanying Fisher Tiger's phantom-like continuous palm strikes, the water droplets blasted towards Adrian swift as lightning bullets, a sky covering torrent like a raging storm.

A crimson glow flashed through Adrian's eyes, lightly shaking his wrist to precisely shatter every water droplet assailing him, while simultaneously raising his left hand, preparing to release his ghost to swiftly end this battle.

Fisher Tiger also shifted stances, getting ready to utilize fish-men Karate's ultimate technique.

Just at this moment, an explosive blast of air accompanied by a voice rang out.

A trident that looked to be made of pure gold descended from the heavens, piercing straight into the road between the two combatants.

"Stop! Both of you stop! No more fighting!"
