Laxus let out a scornful chuckle, chalked the tip of his cue, and strode forward. He bent down, fished the cue ball out of the pocket, placed it back on the table, took his stance, aimed, and struck. The entire movement flowed like water as he cleanly hit a solid-color ball straight into the pocket.
