The light engulfed everything ahead.
It destroyed everything in front of it.
Uchiha Jin's darkness was powerful. After entering their bodies, it did not cause any immediate abnormalities.
They needed to understand it, digest it, and ultimately turn it into their own strength.
And the enhancement of that strength was selective.
For someone like Garp, it strengthened his entire body. Sengoku, Aokiji, Kizaru, and Akainu chose to strengthen their Devil Fruit abilities.
Zephyr had mostly strengthened his mechanical arm.
The beam that destroyed everything did not stop. It even slammed heavily into the barrier in the distance.
"Boom!!"
"Crack!"
The barrier that Sakumo Hatake had been unable to open
developed cracks beneath that beam of light.
When the destructive beam finally vanished,
Zephyr stared wide-eyed at Yahiko, who was completely unharmed.
He still wore that signature bright smile.
But now, it seemed inexplicably irritating.
With a movement of his feet, Zephyr swiftly retreated and widened the distance.
Yet Yahiko remained where he was, spreading his arms.
"Are you wondering why I wasn't hurt at all?"
Zephyr frowned. That was indeed what he had been thinking.
Yahiko's body faintly radiated light.
"Because gods do not get hurt."
Zephyr snorted. "Stop playing god."
He stomped his foot and instantly closed in on Yahiko. His mechanical arm rapidly turned black as he swung it down with all his strength, brimming with dense Armament Haki.
His fist blasted forward.
"Boom!"
The air let out a thunderous roar.
Yet the fist passed straight through Yahiko's body.
This time, Yahiko did not even counterattack, simply allowing Zephyr to strike him.
Seeing that his attack had done nothing, Zephyr quickly pulled back.
"Well?"
Yahiko smiled at Zephyr.
"Will you worship me?"
Zephyr grinned. "Then why did you counterattack the first time? Was that some kind of ninjutsu?
