A/N: I'm a bit busy today, so I'm releasing Chapters a few hours early.

Bang!
On the private beach, a deafening crack echoed in all directions as Sergei's Armament Haki-coated fist collided with Leon's arm. The sheer force of the punch sent rainwater flying outward, forming a wide, empty circle in the storm. The ground beneath them caved in, and sand and gravel erupted in all directions.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sergei breathed heavily as he unleashed a flurry of attacks around Leon, his speed now far greater than before. The rhythmic power of his perfectly sculpted muscles under his vest made each strike seem even more forceful.
The speed at which Sergei and Leon fought was too fast for the naked eye to follow. All that could be seen were the shockwaves from their punches and kicks colliding, and the craters that kept forming on the beach as they moved.
Nearby, spectators could clearly see the intense battle. Gennady and the Wanda twins followed the movement of the fighters with their eyes, tracking their every move. In contrast, the four younger ones struggled to keep up with the action, particularly Clarice. The youngest among them hadn't yet been injected with the super soldier serum due to their age, making it even harder for them to follow the high-speed fight.
They had to wait until they were fifteen or sixteen years old, when their bones had fully developed, before they could be injected with the serum.
