The agent tilted his head to the side in confusion, when Lukas mentioned his alleged insult. The reason for the genuine confusion, which also reflected in his face was simple, he wasn´t aware of any, as what he told him was a very straightforward description of that thief´s future should he decide to resist, which he did.
Watching as the intruder readied himself for a fight, the agent tilted his head to other side, listening to his explanation.
“So someone really sent you. Someone influential and powerful enough to make you afraid. The thing is…right now, you should be more afraid of me. Rankyaku – Suminagashi!”
Without a warning, the agent tilted his whole body to the same side as his head, freeing his hips and leg for a swift and powerful kick. The moving leg however wasn´t the real danger as it wasn´t even aimed at Lukas. The true attack was a crescent-shaped blade of compressed air, that rushed against him from near point-blank range. Wave sharp enough to cut even through steel with relative ease.
The agent went seemingly for a kill, but not really intending to kill his target, more like to force him to realization. He was thinking about his possibilities in the moment before the attack and realized, that it didn´t really matter whether this person will live or not, simply because he already guessed who send him. There weren´t many people in the world who could afford to hire a thief and assassin with a Devil Fruit and when he factored in the fact that they had to know about his movement and the Devil Fruit he carried, the most probable solution was, that this guy was actually CP agent like himself. Sent either by his own boss or by a chief of some other department as a part of some inter-organization struggle. Either way, if he was right, the guy on the other side should quickly realize what was going on after witnessing his Rankyaku…if he truly was fellow agent.
