Battle: Florence Vs Kurt

As Kurt arrived into the arena which was actually kind of a forrest he looked around if his enemy alredy arrived but was nowhere to be seen.
So he waited until he arrives.

Florence smiled as he could see his opponent from afar with his Devil Fruit ability. Knowing that he would cut his opponent off guard if he moved carefully, he started moving towards Bliix's direction as fast as possible. In no time, he had arrived at the spot. Without saying anything, he stood on his hands and started spinning his legs, launching a barrage of Rankyaku, while saying "Rankyaku Breakdance...".

Soon enough, four air blades started traveling towards Bliix, cutting the trees that happened to be blocking the way. The battle between the assassin and Kurt had just started. After performing the move, Florence stood on his legs and waited to see what was about to happen. Even if his attack missed, he would still learn about his opponent's battling style depending on the way he decided to dodge the attack. He had the upper hand in the battle and he would exploit that to the maximum.

Haha! I know that things well!
Rope Action.... Wind Cutter!

He said, launched some ropes from his hand and made the wind schockwaves, which had the same effect as Ranyaku and the sharp shockwaves crashed together.

Rope Action.... Knives!!

Said Kurt and launched a rope with knives tied on it to his enemy.

"Do you think you can defeat me with this?" a voice whispered to Kurt's ear while Florence had been waiting for the attacks to come towards him right in front of him, with his mouth closed. "You cannot do anything." the voice completed before Florence started hitting the ground with his legs rapidly and saying "Soru!".

As the agent used his fast Soru technique, he moved out of the way and dodged the attack and making the knives hit on a tree behind him instead. Seeing how deep the cut on the tree was, Florence was impressed. The technique with the knives was strong. He had to be careful on how he would deal with it, that was for sure. However, the fight had just started. He had plenty of time to see how things would go and improvise.

In no time after dodging, Florence started hitting the ground rapidly once more, vanishing and performing his Soru. The voice that was heard before from behind Kurt's back said "Shigan!" while the original Florence was about to attack. However, the agent of Cipher Pol 9 was planning to strike from the front and not from behind... If Kurt depended on his instict and turned behind to the place where the voice was coming from, he would be struck by the Shigan on his back. However, how would he not turn as long as he listened to Florence's voice from there, performing an attack right after vanishing?

Kurt looked at the way his opponent dodged his attack, he used an insane speed so he knew there can be a lot of tricks with this speed and that he maybe didnt had time to turn around and see whats happening so he just used his armor attack.

Oh shit, your fast.
Rope Action Armor!

He said and made a rope armor ball around himself so it doesnt depends from which way the enemy would strike.

Seeing the armor his opponent placed, Florence did not use his Shigan and stepped behind. After witnessing that the ropes were as strong as steel thanks to the previous knife attack Kurt used, he knew that there was no way to break it with a simple Shigan. Instead, he would try an attack that belonged to a completely different level of battling techniques.

Without losing any of his time, not even a single second, the agent moved his right leg upwards and pointed with it towards his enemy. He smirked while the voice whispered to Kurt's ear from behind "This thing can smash these stupid ropes...Rankyaku Beam!". Afterwards, a beam composed of many Rankyakus was created from the man's foot and started moving towards Kurt very fast. With his body surrounded with the ropes, the agent knew that his opponent would react much slower and would probably take the attack because of his vision that was blocked.

Kurt waited inside and though that the attack is maybe alredy over so he jumped on one of the sides of the ball out and saw some shockwaves coming at him, he didnt had the time to dodge the mso he made a rope quick in front of his chest but still got cut a little, but on his luck not much because of the rope infornt of his chest. As his wound started to bleed a little he said.

Good one, but its not that bad.
You are really fast so i guess you can dodge all of my attacks with that speed. Well anyways.
Rope Action.... Knives.

Kurt made the same attack as befour actually but he didnt launched one rope to his enemy, he launched a lot of ropes with knives tied all ovetr the ropes, all over the area. The ropes were tied all over the area on trees in a distance like 30m away from Kurt and the assassin.

You can use your speed, but what when there is no place to go. Hahaha! Speed doesnt help you here.
Rope Action... Nets!

He said and launched a rope net to his enemy hoping he will ''castle'' him insde the net now that he cant run with his high speed anywhere because of all the ropes over the area.

Florence looked at the knives coming towards him and was about to dodge by using his Soru. The man did so and he started hitting the ground rapidly with his legs. However after finishing, he looked at a net coming towards him.

"What the?!" he said as the net had almost caught him.

The man was immediately caught with the net. He fell on the ground and was unable to move. It looked like he was at the mercy of his enemy. He seemed to be trapped for good. These nets were made of sea-stone. The voice behind Kurt was not heard anymore... He had probably lost the battle. However, nothing was finished yet as long as he was alive and not dead.

Oh, look at that. There i have you in my net.

And made another net ant threw it on his enemy just to be sure.

Rope Action... Choke!!

He said and launched a rope thrrough the net aiming for his opponets neck to choke him with the rope to death.

Everything looked like Florence had lost the battle and was about to be killed! However, right before the Rope was launched to choke the man a surprising event happened! From a distance of centimeters behind Kurt's back a voice whispered "Shinpan.". However, the most surprising thing was that the voice belonged to none other than Florence. As soon as he whispered the word, he started launching a Rankyaku Beam from his right leg quickly while using Shigan with all the fingers of both his hands, two Hand Shigans. As Kurt was busy with exterminating Florence, or the body that he believed to be Florence, there was no way Kurt would notice that. And even if he did so and dodged, the Rankyaku Beam was fired that way so that it would hit on the sea-stone net and free the body, if Kurt could somehow endure the combinations of the attacks from such a short distance.

Kurt heard the voice behind him, he tried to dodge the attacks but was only able to dodge the ranyaku attack but was hit by the shigan move he got hit with 1 hand. As he fell to the ground having 5 holes in his body, he said.

Bastard, you will die
Rope ac...Action... Handcuff!

he then launched more ropes to aim for his hand or feet to handcuff him, because of the knive ropes around he wqasnt able to dodge a lot so it was almost impossible to dodge any of those. As he dodged the ranyaku, the shockwave cutted one of the nets but Kurt putted a net on his enemys real body twice for safety.

"DARN IT!" Florence said as he looked at his opponent putting two more nets on his body. He said "I have no time!" as he launched a final Rankyaku Beam to the nets, cutting them before fading away and dodging the previous move that would catch his body if he did not vanish due to the time of possession that had run out. However, along with the nets, Florence's right arm was cut as well. The man, completely exhausted from using his Shinpan and from having his arm cut got up, with only one hand. He looked at his opponent who had been lying on the ground and moved his finger forward. He coughed blood from his mouth, as he was pushing his body to its limits and said "Air Shigan..." as he launched an air bullet from his left hand in order to cause one more hole on Kurt's body and specifically his head.

Kurt was alredy okay it was still hurting him but he was still able to fight.
He dodged the attack and he made a quick forward roll and stood up.

Bastard! This will be edning soon!
Rope Action... Wind Cutter.... and Dizzy Rope!

first Kurt turned the rope all over the place and made sharp shockwaves facing the way to his enemy because he was turning the rope all around it was unpredictible that he made another attack called Dizzy Rope and launched the rope right behind the sharp shockwaves, because of the rope spiral flying throw the air its really hard to predict where its gonna end and because of the knive rope all around the place his enemy srill wasnt abel to use soru.

Although Florence was unable to use Soru, he could use some other techniques he had. Seeing that attack that would definitely kill him if he did not dodge it, he decided to use a combination of two of his attacks, despite the fact that it was pretty difficult at his current state. The man stood on his left hand only, as the other one was cut. He said "Rankyaku... Breakdance..." as he started launching Rankyakus. However, that was not the only thing he did. While spinning, he continued talking, saying "Rankyaku Beam!". In no time, the agent opened his legs and launched two beams that were aiming at an opposite direction from each other and started spining. The beams eliminated the upcoming attack as well as destroyed some of the ropes that were blocking the way. However, would it hit Kurt and for how long would Florence be able to withstand this at his injured state?

As Kurt saw what his enemy was doing he started to do more and more knive ropes and easily dodged the ranyaku beam cause it wasnt even aimed for him anways it was more for the ropes. as Kurt was launching the knive ropes all around anddidnt stopped and also his enemy was doing the beams and cutting them at the same time Kurt also launched his 1 more attack to be as unpredictible as possible. So he didnt even said the attacks name he just launhed 1 really fast rope that was actually the handcuff attack at his enemys only working hand, hoping he wont see that and will just thing that he is making the knive ropes all over he place.

"Hmph..." was the reaction of Maximillion who simply pointed at the knive that was coming towards his hand. As the time passed, although it was draining him more and more energy to use the attack, it also seemed easier to the man to control the attack. As a result, while seeing the knive, he simply pointed towards it with one of his legs and the beam striked it, turning it to pieces. Afterwards, he said "Time to end this..." as he started aiming for all of the giant trees around Kurt with his beams, cutting them down so that they would fall on him and kill him. Although Florence was exhausted, Kurt had five holes on his body. He would not be able to stand for long. How would Kurt deal with the giant trees that were falling on him?

No problem for me....
Rope action... Armor... and Group Slam!!

He said and first made the rope ball around him to kinda bounce the trees away, after tha he went out of the rope ball tied all the big trees together and started to rotate, at the speed he rotated the wind was blowing really strong and because of so many trees rotating so fast it was almost impossible for his enemy to use his speed and go anywhere near him or to get away from the big trees rotating with more and more speed.

"Perfect!" Florence said with a smile on his face as he looked at his opponent using the armor. Kurt was finally busy at doing something, just how Florence predicted. Seeing the trees coming towards him with high speed the man stood on his legs and moved one upwards, pointing towards his enemy. He said "Rankyaku Beam!" as he launched it towards him and cut through the trees that were moving towards him. As the trees passed through him, he smiled while saying "It takes something more than having my hand cut to beat me. I already start feeling...better while you are pushing your body to the very limit with those holes. Victory is mine."

Kurt laucnhed a knive rope and started to swing with it arond and make the Wind Cutter attack which made sharp shockwaves all around him.
After that he made the Knive Rope attack and spread the ropes all on the ground of the whole cutted out forrest so he again made his enemy difficult to use soru.

Seeing the opponent's move, Florence decided to go with a final plan. He wanted to end the battle as soon as possible. With a smile on his face, he launched a Rankyaku Beam in front of him and cleared a path towards his opponent. Then, he said "This is the end!" as he started using Soru with all his speed and started rushing towards his opponent to strike him with a Shigan on the chest to finish the battle. How long could a man with five holes on his body stand anyway? Florence knew that he could stand less than a man with a cut hand for sure.

Rope Knot.... Armor!

Yelld Kurt and made a armor rope ball arund himself.

The man continued charging towards his enemy quickly, while also using a Rankyaku Beam on the way. He was already nearby so dodging this time would probably be impossible. At least that was what Florence believed...
