Zoro's Resolve to Slay a Dragon!
The battle on Hachinosu has reached a fever pitch!
In the center of the island, the clash of Haki and power between Kaido and Kuzan has transformed half the island into a frozen Purgatory.
Ice spikes rose up like mountains, and thunderstorms exploded in the sky. No one could take a single step within a five-kilometer radius. Only ice shards and lightning intertwined and roared!
On the other side, Jack the Drought is engaged in a fierce battle with Luffy and the Ace brothers.
The relentless onslaught of Dragon Bones and flames left his massive body covered in wounds. Even with the Ancient Zoan's astonishing defense and endurance, he was still forced to retreat repeatedly, barely managing to hold on thanks to his thick skin and tough flesh.
The Battlefield on the western wing of Hachinosu is even more fraught with danger!
The clash between King, Zoro, and Kuina has escalated from a probing attack into a true battle to the death.
In order to overcome the inner demons of his previous defeat, Zoro unleashed his full sword intent.
Kuina seized the opportunity to combine her speed and strength with that of Mythical Zoan vampire, giving Jin almost no chance to catch his breath.
The two clashed blades, creating an impeccable rhythm of offense and defense, forcing Jhin to retreat repeatedly.
Jhin's mask had long since shattered, revealing his pale and handsome face, now twisted like a demon by rage and pain.
Her long white hair danced wildly in the gale and flames, her black wings were crisscrossed with tears, and blood dripped from the corner of her mouth to the ground, instantly evaporating into white mist in the high temperature.
"A mere swordsman... dares to injure me so badly?!"
His roar was like thunder, and the flames behind him, accompanied by a gale, suddenly burst into a blazing white, the blade being devoured by the flames, as if the karmic fire of hell had coalesced into one!
"Guardian Fire Dragon Emperor!!"
Guardian Fire Dragon Emperor!
"Boom!!"
Flame Dragon, even larger than the "Fire Dragon Emperor," roared out from the blade. Its body was over ten meters thick, and the intense heat of the flames distorted the surrounding air, instantly cracking the ground and evaporating the ice layer within ten meters!
Zoro's eyes were fixed on the Flame Dragon that was pouncing towards him, as sharp as an eagle's. His twin swords trembled, their blades and arms shaking, and Haki arcs of electricity flickered faintly amidst the Haki.
"This strike... must be fatal!"
"As long as the flames of the Wildfire cannot be extinguished, my obsession cannot be severed!!"
He gripped Yubashiri tightly, his waist sinking like a fully drawn bow, all his strength and will erupting as sword intent!
"Three-Sword Style - One Hundred and Three Emotions - Flying Dragon Servant!!"
"Whoosh!!"
Three jet-black slashes transformed into three roaring, furious dragons soaring into the sky. The blades were interspersed with faint, domineering black and red lightning, which instantly collided with Conqueror's Haki's Flame Dragon!
"Boom--!"
Flames and blade energy Strangulation wildly in mid-air, light and shadow intertwined to create a blazing white light, and heat waves and Shockwaves swept around, blowing away all the rubble and steel debris on the Battlefield!
The moment of stalemate--
"Snap--!"
The Flame Dragon of embers shattered under the tearing force of countless sword intents!
The remaining force of the three strikes showed no signs of diminishing, piercing downwards like Heavenly Punishment.
"Pfft--!"
A splash of crimson blood splattered in the air as one of Ember's wings was cleanly severed at the root!
"Ahhh--!"
A bloodcurdling roar echoed across the Hachinosu. Jhin was thrown backward by the Impact, falling to his knees on one knee, his longsword supporting his body, his chest heaving violently.
He looked up at Zoro, his eyes filled with disbelief and humiliation. "My flames... have been severed?!"
"Is this guy... really that strong?!"
The shock of seeing the broken wings had barely flashed through his mind when Kuina arrived like a shadow in the night!
A crimson aura swirled around the Wado Ichimonji, and the scarlet blade transformed into a venomous snake, lunging straight for Jin's throat!
With Battlefield instinct, Jin deftly Returning Blade, still wreathed in flames, held horizontally before his neck!
"Clang--!"
Sparks and blood-red light exploded as Kuina's "Blood Moon Style: Devour" frantically tore at his defenses, the scarlet blade light seemingly trying to seep into his body!
King was forced to retreat several steps, but the rocks beneath his feet had barely cracked when Zoro arrived like lightning.
"Three-Sword Style: Burning Oni Giri!!"
The three swords, still burning with the remnants of Dragon Flame, intertwined with Haki and fire, their blade light transforming into evil spirits that pounced to kill!
Jin's pupils contracted sharply; he knew very well that he could not withstand this strike.
But in that life-or-death moment, Zoro's Observation Haki suddenly exploded!
"Danger!!"
Without hesitation, he instantly slashed three times to protect himself, the blades spinning like a storm!
"Three-Sword Style: Tornado - Guard!!"
"Boom!!"
The next moment--
Forcefully withstanding Kuzan's attack, Kaido's spiked Kanabo, half-frozen and imbued with Conqueror's Haki and booming lightning, crashed down like a falling Meteor!
"Thunder Bagua!!"
Zoro's defenses collapsed completely amidst the violent tremors, and he was flung away like a kite with a broken string, his bones making a dull cracking sound!
"Bang!!"
He crashed heavily to the ground, sending up a mud wave tens of meters high, and crimson blood foam gushed from his mouth!
"Zoro!!" Kuina cried out in alarm, her steps faltering as she tried to rush over—
Following closely behind Kaido, a blizzard of ice instantly approached!
Kuzan had already entered the fray, his voice as cold as iron. "Don't underestimate me... Kaido."
Battle scars still lingered on half of his body, but the killing intent in his eyes was even stronger.
Ice Age: Fist Bone Impact!!
"Snap--!"
A thick, chilling aura exploded behind Kaido, instantly freezing the dragon's spine, followed by Kuzan's Iron Fist slamming into it!
"Bang--!"
Kaido roared as he was blasted hundreds of meters away, crashing into half a mountain peak, sending ice shards and boulders Heavenfall!
"Brother Kaido!!"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, King vibrated his last remaining wing, burning away the Dragon Flames within his body to forcibly pull himself away from the Battlefield. His gaze rapidly shifted between the injured Zoro, the wary Kuina, and the flying Kaido, a hint of unwillingness and struggle flashing in his eyes.
In the crater in the ground, Zoro gritted his teeth and propped himself up, still gripping the three swords tightly in his hands, but his right arm was clearly deformed, and blood dripped from between his fingers.
Kuina leaped up and helped him up. "You idiot... do you really want to fight?!"
Zoro grinned, blood staining his teeth. "Heh... I almost, I almost killed him..."
Kuina gritted her teeth, suddenly looked up and shouted, "Luo!"
Meanwhile, the clash between Kaido and Kuzan once again swept across half of Hachinosu, with ice and fire intertwining to create a natural disaster, and the Battlefield had been completely transformed into an apocalyptic Purgatory!
A flash of blue light suddenly streaked across the sky above the pit—
"ROOM!"
Luo's figure appeared instantly beside the two, his Scalpel drawing an invisible arc.
"Click--"
Inside the ROOM, Zoro's twisted right arm was precisely reset, the sound of dislocated bones quickly dissipating with a warm current.
Zoro gripped his sword hilt tightly, his eyes blazing with unwavering fighting spirit. "While he's injured, don't let him get away!!"
Upon hearing the sound, Kuina's eyes narrowed, and she transformed into a blood-red afterimage as she soared into the sky!
"Whoosh!"
Blood and flames mingled, and her figure, like a hunting shadow, pounced straight at the retreating Ash!
As Jin sensed the ghostly approach of killing intent, his pupils constricted, and flames instantly erupted.
"Damn it... I can't shake him off!"
On the other side of the Battlefield, the clash of ice and fire between Kaido and Kuzan continued with deafening roars, while King and Kuina's deadly pursuit extended towards another ruin on Hachinosu!
