Chapter 441 - Road Rage

'Holy crap…This guy's strong!' Dezzi thought to them self as they skid across the roof of another car. They quickly knocked many of the people in the car out of their spots and tossed them away before hanging off the side and flexing their fingers 

Small claws came from their fingertips, extending from their tails into inch long claws. Electro then coarse through the hand, threatening the driver "Keep Driving!" 

With a look of fear, the Deri Warrior that had the whiskers and barbs of a catfish on their face nodded their head quickly. 

Dezzi didn't use their claws often. Honestly not at all. But this fight was going to push them to the edge. 

Quickly they crawled back to the top of the roof where another engine block was hurled straight for them! Causing them to flatten against the roof as the hunk of metal exploded a 20 meter crater into the side of the far wall on the opposite side of the Track 

Zymen tossed a pipe up and down in his and, weighing it slightly before chucking it through the air like a spear! Dezzi had to act fast, then leapt up through the air, denting the roof only for the pipe to crash through that very spot and impale the Catfish through the skull! 

"Huh?!" Dezzi released a surprise as Zymen had appeared in front of them! They utterly dwarfed the short mink, their hands clasped together before swinging them hard into their side! Hitting them like a baseball to be sent flying! 

With a resounding crash, Dezzi slammed into the back of a car that had glass as a window on the back. It shattered into dust from the shear force. 

"Ack! Gah! Haff! Haff!" Dezzi struggled to breath as the attack had knocked the wind out of them "Awww….I didn't break you two quickly did I?" Zymen gave a cocky grin. He was an extremely confident individual in combat. While not being the most talkative usually, his entire demeanor changed in battle to one that was constantly looking down on his opponents 

 Dezzi wrapped their arm around their torso as they breathed hard. 'That was a heck of a hit…A few more of those and I think I might die!' They quickly reached into their bag and pulled out a vial and quickly downed it. 

Dezzi had to force the transformation to take place immediately, like someone would grit their teeth and tense to force their blood to flow 

Zymen slammed his hands into the top of the car and rended the metal into his hands to ball it up and hurl it at Dezzi with extreme force! It was only the size of a basket ball, but utterly exploded the Car where Dezzi was! 

Zipping out of the way, Dezzi, Now in Sulong, gripped into the Side of Large Truck, it had huge wheels in the back that caused it to have a steep incline. They quickly made their way to the roof. 

With a stomp, Zymen crashed through the roof his leg long enough that it went straight through! He then put the rest of his body into the Vehicle and then tore it in two from inside out! 

With a quick spin as he was on the Dirt path, he tossed both halves right at Dezzi! 

"Lyn Crescent Shock!" Charging electro in their leg, Dezzi slammed both halves out of the way! Electrifying them for a prolonged moment as they were sent back to the Corsair! 

Zymen instintcually swatted one out of the way, but that contact sent shockwaves through his body as his muscles tensed up! A moment later the second heap of metal slammed into his head! 

"Grah!" He released in pain as he fell off the car and rolled across the ground

The Doctor knew he wasn't out for the count and began to keep moving. Seeing Jeanne pull up! "Hell of a new look Dezzi!" She said as shot out the tire of the car next to her, just as they noticed that next to them wasn't a typical combatant 

"Thanks!" Dezzi gave a cute smile as the looked into the door via hanging over the Edge. "This isn't even My Final form…Thing. But I have a feeling you'll be seeing that one soon!" 

They said looking to the road "Yep! Just as I thought! Keep on ahead, I'll meet you and Noir when I'm done!" 

"Okay! Kick his fuckin ass Dez!" With a leap, Dezzi hopped to another Car as Jeanne, with quick learning, weaved in and out of the other cars. Using steam from her body to keep the others at a distance and conceal her movements 

Zymen was running at over a hundred miles an hour! Out pacing all the other cars around him as he caught up with Dezzi before running full speed! 

With a blink, Dezzi watched them Suddenly appear in front of them! With a duck, They dodged the Massive Haymaker and swiping their leg into their Side, Coating it in Electro "Crescent Shock!" 

'This damn Minks electro! I don't even think my Haki could protect me…But those attacks are getting stronger.' Zymen was practically sitting in scrap metal of the collapsed car that was continuing its path due to the Zombie inside. 

"Hrah!" Grabbing the side, they pulled it from beneath them like one suddenly pulling a pillow from beneath them and through the entire Vehicle at Dezzi! 

Dezzi leapt up into the air, and Caught it by the Driver side door, wanting to potentially stop the Pirate inside from being killed in their counter attack. But the look of rot told them it was Undead. 

They dried to gingerly pull them, but the body was peeled apart as it was pulled out. Dezzi then tossed the Coral faced zombie to a safe point, where they…Splattered. But was returned to rest 

With a grimace they flipped the car and hurled it over head right back at Zymen! With a devilish smile, Zymen brought his fist up and then slammed them in a flurry of blows into the metal! Metal shredded into dozens and dozens of pieces as he dug his way through! 

Dezzi was waiting… The Final punch through revealed the Mink with claws extended! They had to be many inches long and were covered in sparkling bright blue electricity! 

"Shock!" The following moment, The Doctor Swiped their hand into the chest of The Grand Sultan! "Claw!" 

Wind cracked as Zymen flew through the air! Dezzi was making sure not to hit them in the direction of any cars 

Zymen quickly regained composure, grinding into the race track as dozens of cars swerved out of the way around him. His gaze shifted to his chest where a large splotch of matte black was across his chest, fingers coming up to tap at it 

"Seems like Haki won't block that electricity. But it completely stopped those claws." The black area disappeared. Fading away by shrinking to the center 

'I'm at a total speed and strength disadvantage. He's way too fast. I'm lucky that all of those moves were wild and untrained…And what was that feeling? My Claws…it was like I scratched into rock…his chest turned black…' The Doctor thought to themselves as they pulled out the secondary vial for Helmi 

Zymen was starting to grow further and further away. And was about to come around the opposite side "Phew…" He breathed and closed his eyes. 

"Shed…" His neck went limp as his body began to steam. His muscles and fat began to shed away, or more accurately– Burn. He became leaner and leaner by the second, losing his muscle mass only for after a few seconds his body to appear emaciated 

There was still prominent muscle, but it was closer to as iff he had been starved and dehydrated. 

There was a Technique in parts of the world known as 'Semei Kikan' or 'Life Return' which let the users of this technique control every fiber of their bodies. From their Nails to their Hair. Even if they could, or shouldn't be able to they could 

It was used by many to gain mass or loose it to bulk or momentum. But that had its own drawbacks. Not only was it difficult to achieve, but also taxing mentally. 

Shed however, was vastly different. It relied only on the user to force their bodies to burn muscle in exchange for speed and agility. 

"There we go…" Zemen extended an arm forced a Car to come to a stop before throwing it! Then another and another! He tossed six different cars from trucks to cars to smaller carriages! 

Then, he crouched into a ready position and burst forward! Bouncing from car to car and hopping off the final with his fit blackened and reeled back! Right as he appears in front of Dezzi!
