Black to White
The heavens and earth churned, and the wind howled like the sea.
At the very center of this torn world, two figures burst forth from the turbulent currents—
Kizaru and Dragon!
The power of light and wind intertwined between them, one gold and one blue, like gods standing side by side.
Kizaru's body transformed into countless particles of light, traversing the void, their refracted light illuminating the ravaged Battlefield.
The dragon's aura was like a hurricane ring, the wind pressure whipping up rubble and flames, forming a massive airwave storm.
The two exchanged a knowing glance and struck instantly!
"Sparkling Silent Light Lock!"
"Hurricane - Formless Domain!"
Light and wind intertwine, converging into a golden-white net in the sky!
It twisted and expanded in the air, instantly enveloping the two giant demons in front of it.
Sakazuki and Zephyr!
They had long been completely corrupted by the Underworld power of "Black Turn Domination," their bodies were grotesque, their eyes were blood red, and flames and magma surged like a tide of Purgatory!
"Roar--!"
The roar shattered mountains and rivers, and the flames surged endlessly!
But that net of light and wind, like a cage of divine punishment, firmly sealed off their power, suppressing the two demons in place!
"Hurry up and do it!!"
The dragon roared, and a storm surged like waves, its voice transforming into thunder that shook the heavens.
"Hehehe--Just in time!!"
With arrogant laughter, Teach and Loki stood on either side of the cage, like black and white opposites, their auras clashing in the air.
The two simultaneously raised their palms, pointing them at the demonized Zephyr and Sakazuki.
Teach roared with laughter, "Give me, laugh freely--!"
The power of the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika has been fully unleashed!
The light was no longer a single white, but a vibrant, flowing torrent of energy, multicolored and alive.
It contains laughter and the will to be free, spreading in the air like the first dawn of the world!
At the same time--
Thunder roared across the sky, and the giant hammer Ragnir burned with white lightning—the power of a mysterious fruit passed down through generations of Giant Race Awakening within Loki!
That force is unrestrained and represents "change," "freedom," and "breaking boundaries"!
A white halo erupted from Loki's palm, its energy rippling outwards and completely enveloping the two demons.
Two streams of energy, one colorful and one white, one on the left and one on the right--
Just like on a chessboard, two "white pieces" have completely locked down two "black pieces"!
"Buzz--!"
Heaven and earth held their breath; the air seemed to freeze.
The light flared, the nether energy was torn apart, and the mark of "Black Turn Domination" began to peel away!
A low hissing sound echoed in the air, a mournful wail and a sign of collapse from the Underworld.
"Click--click--click--!"
Sakazuki and Zephyr's demonic bodies began to crumble!
Fangs shattered, blood wings turned to light, black stripes peeled off, and ghostly flames dissipated!
The Blue Flames and magma were swallowed by the colorful light, leaving only two human figures as they fell back to the earth.
They're back.
Zephyr knelt on the ground, the Blue Flames extinguished, leaving only his wounds and the embers of his breath.
He looked up, his vision blurred, yet he could clearly see that familiar figure.
"Hey... brat."
That sound was as light as the wind, yet as heavy as a mountain.
The dragon's Adam's apple bobbed, and a flicker of emotion appeared in its eyes.
He gritted his teeth, his voice slightly hoarse. "Professor Zephyr..."
Zephyr smiled, a mixture of weariness and pride.
"It seems... you've finally come this far."
On the other side, Sakazuki slowly stood up, the scorched lava gradually cooling.
He looked at Kizaru not far away, his expression complex.
Sorry, bro.
Kizaru's gaze was deep, but his voice was surprisingly gentle as he sighed softly.
"Don't give me that... It's good that you're back."
The firelight illuminated the four people; the brief tranquility amidst the war was like a breath of fresh air, small yet precious.
But the calm is only the prelude to the next storm.
"Hmph... Haven't you guys had enough?"
Teach pursed his lips, and the flames on his shoulders flickered.
"I'm not here to reminisce with you."
"Hehehe--"
He tilted his head, his fangs gleaming coldly in the firelight, and looked up at the Battlefield high in the sky.
"Roy!! That guy, I'll deal with him!!"
The words had barely left his mouth--
A deafening roar suddenly echoed from afar!
"--Damn Teach!!"
Flames pierced the air, and raging flames descended from the sky!
Ace was engulfed in golden-red flames, his face contorted with rage.
"I'll let you go since you saved Professor Zephyr!"
"But--"
He roared, his fists burning with flames, the firelight illuminating every corner of the Battlefield.
"Hehehe--"
Teach raised his hand to shield his eyes, laughing maniacally, his tone full of disdain.
"Don't make that face, Fire Fist Kid. I wasn't even serious last time."
A louder sound instantly drowned out the roar of the Battlefield and the explosions of flames.
"Hey you fat guy!! Come over here right now and put these two back to normal!!"
That was Luffy's voice, angry and anxious.
His body shimmered with golden-red lightning, radiating Haki, as he struggled to fend off the two's attacks. The demonized Crow and Ivankov were now completely enraged!
Their bodies began to twist, their ghostly flames surged, and their aura became extremely chaotic, as if they had lost their stable support after the "Black Turn Domination" was broken.
"Their bodies can't hold on much longer!"
Sabo roared, his eyes filled with anxiety.
"Help us rescue them first, I'll owe you a favor!"
Ace pushed off with his feet, and flames exploded as he charged forward.
"Boom!!"
The sky suddenly split open, lightning and darkness intertwined, and a deafening Impact came from afar!
The clouds high in the sky were torn apart, and a black vortex exploded in the sky!
Everyone look up--
The Battlefield between Roy and Imu has broken out once again!
Thunder roared like a sea, shattering space itself.
Roy's figure was surrounded by lightning, as if he had become a divine Heavenly Punishment;
Imu's body flew backward, a huge hole blasted open in his chest, black blood gushing out!
His proud face revealed extreme fear.
"This power... is impossible...!!"
Imu's voice was hoarse, as if it came from the abyss.
"The Devil Contract has actually been broken?!"
His eyes began to tremble violently, and the Netherworld Seal within him was backfiring!
"--puff!!"
Imu coughed up a mouthful of black blood, staggered Backtrack, and the black energy within his body exploded in chaos.
His oppressive aura, which had originally enveloped the heavens and earth, was rapidly diminishing!
"Now is the opportunity!"
Roy roared, and lightning surged within him.
The left palm thrusts out, the right fist gathers momentum, and Conqueror's Haki gathers between the fists like a galaxy!
The space in the palm of my hand began to collapse, and the air was completely sucked into that spot.
"Instant—Explosive Air!!"
The air instantly became unbalanced, and space itself was forcibly twisted!
A Haki fist gust of wind, merging with the very fabric of space, erupted forth, its speed so fast that even light couldn't react in time!
"Bang!!"
The fist pierced the air, striking Imu's chest!
At that moment, the heavens and earth trembled, and the mountains and rivers roared!
"Click--!"
Space shattered, lightning pierced the sky, and darkness collapsed like a tidal wave!
Imu's body was completely pierced, black blood rained down, and for the first time, true despair appeared in his eyes!
His lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
But amidst the blazing lightning, His voice was completely swallowed up.
Roy's eyes burned with lightning as he looked down at the falling "god".
"Next--"
Thunder roared like the sea, his fists struck like blades, his shadow looming over the shattered earth.
"It's time for liquidation."
