Thunder God Appeared!
In the heart of the Deserted Island, the fierce battle between Zephyr, Luffy, and Kaido continues.
"Kuina?!"
Zephyr's Observation Haki sensed the entire island's battle situation like radar. At a certain moment, a sudden change in aura made his pupils shrink.
The aura was eerie, cold, and violent, like some sealed power awakening in full force!
"Her aura has undergone a transformation? Could it be...?"
At that very moment--
"Getting distracted in battle will get you killed, you old geezer!!"
Kaido's roar was like a thunderclap!
He was enveloped in a deep purple aura of Haki, raising the Hassaikai high, his Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki condensing into a thunderous blade!
"Thunder Bagua--!"
"Boom--!"
The air was instantly torn apart, and black lightning streaked across the sky!
Zephyr's pupils contracted, but before he could defend himself, a pink light flashed like Inazuma!
"Don't even think about touching Grandpa Zephyr!!"
Luffy roared! A giant Pink Dragon -Human-Beast Form lunged at him from the waist, its dragon arms crossed and covered in Armament Haki, as it blocked with all its might!
"Bang--!"
With a deafening roar, Kaido's furious attack crashed down, Luffy like a blood-red meteor into a distant mountainside, shattering rocks and sending dust billowing into the air!
"Luffy!!" Zephyr roared, his eyes bloodshot, and he charged forward with a stomp of his foot!
"I've put up with you for far too long!"
"Crush! Extreme!!"
Zephyr no longer held back; his arm muscles bulged, his Armament Haki surged wildly, and his fists were so black they seemed to devour light!
"Bang! Bang! Bang--!"
He unleashed punch after punch, each one powerful and heavy, forcing Kaido than ten meters in an instant!
"Warorororo--!" Kaido's eyes blazed with fighting spirit as he roared with maniacal laughter, "Old man, are you finally getting serious?!"
"Come on!! Let's fight to the death!!"
Sparks flew, fists clashed, the Battlefield resembled a volcanic eruption, and the entire island trembled!
On the other side, the night wind howled, and sword shadows surged across the Scorched Earth as a fierce battle raged!
Kuina brandished the blood-stained Wado Ichimonji, unleashing boundless blood energy in her Mythical Zoan Vampire Form!
She transformed into a blur, attacking with the frenzy of a hunter in the night!
Jin, however, showed no fear, his eyes remaining calm.
"This woman... although her strength is increasing, her moves are limited, and she clearly hasn't fully developed her Devil Fruit ability!"
"He must have just eaten the fruit recently; he's fighting purely on instinct!"
A murderous glint flashed in his eyes. "This monstrous talent... must die before it truly Awakening!"
Jin suddenly flapped his wings and soared into the air, transforming into Pteranodon Form!
"Tankyūdon!"
"Whoosh--!"
He swooped down like a black Inazuma, his wingspan like a knife, aimed straight for Kuina's throat!
Kuina flapped her bat wings and narrowly dodged, but Jhin's attack did not stop.
"The Dai Jison!!"
His dragon head was pulled back violently, as if compressing the entire skull deep into the cervical spine!
"Boom--!"
A terrifying Shockwave shot out like a laser beam. Kuina hastily crossed her arms and used her blade to block, but she was still blasted dozens of meters away and crashed heavily into the Scorched Earth!
"Ugh--!"
Dust billowed up, and a deep trench appeared in the ground!
Jin looked down from mid-air, a disdainful sneer playing on his lips.
"You want to get close to me and replenish your blood? Dream on!"
The Pteranodon Form soared through the sky, its silhouette like a shadowy figure in the night, employing cunning guerrilla tactics with its aerial advantage.
Scorching flames surged and gathered between her wings, unleashing wave after wave of fiery Shockwaves that, like meteors falling from the sky, precisely blocked Kuina's path forward, retreat, and chance of survival.
Boom--! Boom--!
Each Impact was like the roar of a ferocious beast, tearing the ground apart and unleashing scorching waves of air!
Kuina knelt on the shattered, scorched Scorched Earth, her chest heaving violently, her bat wings trembling in the flames, her fangs clenched, and blood trickling down her forehead.
Even though her Vampire Form granted her amazing regenerative abilities, it was no match for Jhin's relentless bombardment.
--Don't give her a chance to get close, don't give her the possibility to leech off you.
Her gaze swept across the distance--
It was in a pile of collapsed stones, where Zoro's figure was half-buried, covered in wounds, yet he still managed to look up with difficulty.
His face was covered in blood, yet a familiar, stubborn smile still lingered on it.
At that moment, it seemed as if a burning conviction emanated from his silent gaze.
Kuina took a deep breath, her eyes shifting from struggle to resolve, and the cold light in her blood-red eyes ignited once more.
Above the sky, Jin flapped its wings and circled, flames surging from the base of its wings and converging in the air to form a blazing red spiral.
He grinned maliciously, his pupils, illuminated by the firelight, as cold as Beast's. "The Pteranodon Imperial Flame!"
The flames transformed into a barrage of bullets, suddenly pouring down like a raging sea, completely engulfing the entire land!
Swish--!
"Boom--! Boom--! Boom--!"
The fiery bullets exploded and Impact the ground, kicking up clouds of smoke and Scorched Earth.
The heatwave scorched the air, and blackened cracks spread outwards like a spider web!
Kuina moved like a ghost through the fire net, her clothes Hunting Roar, yet her movements grew increasingly heavy.
Despite her desperate attempts to dodge, several fireballs still struck her left shoulder and thigh, leaving burn marks that spread and charred flesh!
"Ugh...!"
She fell to the ground, gasping for breath, her vision blurry.
"No... If this continues, we'll only be slowly worn down..."
In a flash, her eyes changed, she paused, and deliberately created an opening amidst the Impact—
Jin let out a cold laugh; his Observation Haki had already detected the incongruity of this moment.
"A foolish scheme."
He suddenly swooped down, his figure bursting out of the clouds, his dragon wings folding, transforming into a black Inazuma!
"Die!"
Kuina suddenly raised her eyes, her gaze blazing with blood-red light. She gripped the Wado Ichimonji tightly, unleashing a powerful slash as she charged up!
"Blood Moon - Shadowless Slash!"
Whoosh--!
A beam of light, like a crimson Crescent Moon, suddenly shot into the sky, striking the incoming dragon's head with a sharp and piercing sound!
However--
The rapidly diving form of the embers suddenly jolted, transforming abruptly into human form mid-air!
Flames coalesced in his hand into a giant samurai sword, its blade wreathed in crimson flames, and it cleaved down like a divine judgment!
"Guardian Fire Dragon Emperor--!"
The roaring fire dragon roared and slammed out, colliding fiercely with the light of the Moon Slayer!
"Bang--!"
The blade shattered, and the roaring fire dragon broke through the afterimage of the Blood Moon Slash, heading straight for Kuina's chest!
"Ahhh--!"
She flew backward like a meteor, crashing heavily into the ground with a dull thud that echoed throughout the Deserted Island!
The earth cracked, rocks flew everywhere, and dust obscured the sky!
In the deep pit, Kuina struggled to sit up, half-kneeling and panting heavily, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth.
Her bat wings were mostly burned away, the bloodlust receded like a tide, revealing pale skin, and her fangs and claws slowly faded away.
Vampire Form, dispelled!
Jin stomped down, slowly approaching, his massive, flame-wrapped blade pointing at her, his eyes cold and empty.
Each step felt like volcanic lava crushing Scorched Earth, with waves of heat surging forth, forcing the air to emit a low, mournful wail.
"It's over."
Kuina knelt on the ground, gritting her teeth Wado Ichimonji in her hand was already as heavy as lead, and her arm was trembling violently, almost unable to grip the hilt.
She looked up abruptly, her eyes gleaming with the last embers of life.
"It's not over yet..."
Her vampire powers had completely dissipated, her clothes were stained with blood, and she swayed precariously.
Jin stood firmly, raising his flaming greatsword high, the flames obscuring the sky like Eclipse, reflecting his cold and ruthless gaze.
"The nascent seedlings of the navy... we can no longer allow you to grow any further."
Scorching flames gathered wildly on the blade, as if to incinerate the entire island in one strike!
"Go to hell!"
--At this critical moment between life and death!
Boom!!
A blazing bolt of lightning crashed down from the heavens, like a divine spear of punishment tearing the sky apart, descending instantly with Thunderclap and oppressive force!
A golden light swept across the land, Golden Staff, carrying immense thunder, descended from the sky to block the flaming giant blade!
Boom!!
Flames and lightning collided violently in the air, creating a deafening explosion!
A violent energy storm swept across the Battlefield, leaving a deep gash in the Scorched Earth. Heat and electricity intertwined wildly, bursting forth with blinding light!
Jin's pupils contracted sharply, his body was jolted back two steps, and his face darkened!
Amidst the lightning, a tall and imposing figure slowly emerged—
Blond Hair fluttered with the electric current, golden earrings trembled in the lightning, a Rear Admiral general's uniform with its cape billowing, and the word "Justice" on the back was particularly dazzling in the lightning!
He stood with a stick in his Right Hand and his left hand in his pocket, looking like a god descending to earth, surrounded by thunder, his power awe-inspiring!
--Rear Marine Headquarters Rear Admiral Enel Thunder God, makes his appearance!!
"Hey, hey, hey..."
Enel raised his head, his golden eyes cold and piercing, lightning flashing in them. He locked his gaze on Jin, his voice deep and rumbling like Thunderclap:
"What do you intend to do to our navy's new recruits?"
