Clash at the Peak, World's Strongest (Fifteen) / Clash at the Peak, World's Strongest (Sixteen)
However, glancing down at the orange beams of light and the shockwaves emanating from the contesting battle, Arthur slightly closed his eyes and raised the Excalibur high.
The surrounding air, as well as the sand, gravel, withered grass, and trees on the ground, began to emit a firefly-like golden glow.
"It's happening!! The prelude to 'King of Knights's' ultimate attack..."
"Do you think... Whitebeard will make the 'King of Knights' unleash that golden light that destroys everything?"
"Probably?! After all, the 'King of Knights' is in the sky, and Whitebeard can't fly!"
"..."
As more and more golden light appeared out of thin air, and as if drawn by a magnet, all converged towards Arthur in the sky.
People around the world who witnessed this scene through the live Image Bird became excited.
A cacophony of voices rose in discussion.
The most representative ultimate move of the "King of Warriors" is that golden light that destroys everything.
Despite the fact that Emperors' War with Kaido, many people believed that the towering golden pillar of light was the 'King of Knights's' most powerful finishing move.
But compared to that towering pillar of light that appeared only once and destroyed everything, the golden light that accompanied the newly debuted 'King of Knights' all the way, making him known to the world and inspiring awe and fear in countless people.
'True Name Release' has already left a very deep impression on the minds of countless people.
Almost everyone who fought the 'King of Knights' would interrupt his power-building process upon seeing the omen that caused this extraordinary phenomenon.
Even Kaido, who had suffered a great loss before, was no exception.
The only people who never interrupted Arthur were Mihawk and Kaido during their first battle.
The events of the Paramount War don't count; the seals were broken far too few times, and the time for charging up was pitifully short.
Therefore, everyone is speculating whether Whitebeard will have the 'King of Knights' unleash that golden light that destroys everything.
"Gurarara... Come on!!"
The force of the shockwave and the orange beam of light clashed in mid-air for a period of time.
Ultimately, they canceled each other out; the invisible shockwave dissipated, and the orange beam of light turned into a twisted coin, falling to the ground.
Looking at Arthur, who was suspended high in the air, holding Excalibur in both hands, Whitebeard let out a hearty laugh.
'Pfft--'
He planted the naginata in his hand into the ground again, stretched his right arm to his left shoulder, and turned to the side, positioning his elbow towards Arthur.
His five fingers were clenched into a fist, and the muscles on his thick right arm were taut, as if they had grown several sizes larger.
Veins stretched out, as if you could see the blood flowing inside.
'Buzz~'
A circular, transparent white light wave appeared above the Whitebeard's right fist, emitting a sound that vibrated the air.
An extremely terrifying pressure suddenly emanated from Whitebeard's body.
A pair of tiger eyes seemed to be flashing red light.
'The five seals have been lifted--'
'Whoosh!'
'Swish--!'
'Swish--!'
At the same time, Arthur, surrounded by a dazzling light, suddenly descended slowly from the sky.
With each step of descent, the Excalibur, would flash with a dazzling golden light.
Just as his feet were about to touch the ground, the fifth golden light shone from the magnificent sword.
At this moment, Excalibur, sheathed with a bladed scabbard, was already gleaming with dazzling golden light. The King's Sword, which was originally golden, was now entirely golden.
"The Six Seals is lifted--"
Arthur suddenly opened his eyes, his emerald green pupils holding an eternal light, and shouted, "Excalibur—"
'Buzz~ Click!!'
At the same time, the Whitebeard opposite him, with his bulging veins, also shattered the atmosphere in front of him with his fist.
'Boom--!'.
Chapter 272 Ultimate Showdown, The World's Strongest (XV)
'Boom--!'
Numerous cracks spread across the atmosphere in front of Whitebeard.
The area it covered was so vast that it was about half the size of the Whitebeard, or an area of three or four meters.
This was absolutely the strongest punch Whitebeard had ever delivered.
The endless shockwave was less like a shockwave and more like a terrifying hurricane.
It surged wildly out of the cracks in the atmosphere.
An invisible force of tremor shook the earth, stirring up endless dust and mist, causing the entire 'Decalvan' to tremble violently.
Ahead, Golden Torrent formed from golden light roared in like a tsunami.
From top to bottom, the live-streaming Image Bird in the sky clearly captured the two breathtaking energy bursts, bringing them to the world's attention.
The moment the shockwave, shrouded in dust and mist, collided with the Golden Torrent that annihilated everything.
A deafening explosion, which instantly silenced the entire world, resounded throughout the world.
A mushroom cloud, nearly covering the entire island of 'Decalvan', rose up, obscuring the view of the live-streaming Image Birds and the world at large.
But none of this prevents the hearts of people from being suspended in suspense, just like this mushroom cloud.
Breathing seemed to freeze; everyone stared wide-eyed at the ever-growing mushroom cloud on the screen.
It's one thing if it's just a group of people, but this is how people behave in this world.
This adds an aura of epic scale to the clash between the two attacks.
This would absolutely be a world-class attack and collision, one that would go down in history.
"..."
The mushroom cloud lasted for a long time, its color incredibly rich, enough to show just how terrifying the power it contained must be.
Moreover, it wasn't just thick black smoke; it was also occasionally mixed with golden and orange-red light.
The most intense color is gold, followed by orange-red.
This mushroom cloud lasted for a full half hour before dissipating.
The appearance of the island of 'Decalvan' is once again revealed.
However, when 'Decalvan' was presented to the world, countless people were stunned.
That really is the large island of 'Decalvan'?!
Are you sure it's not a deserted island?!
The live-streaming Image Bird, its eyes flashing red, zoomed in, revealing the full view of 'Decalvan' from four different perspectives on the screen.
As mentioned before, 'Decalvan' is different from 'Weilasituodi'.
'Weilasituodi' is an island perfectly suited for development, while 'Decalvan' is an island with no development potential whatsoever.
The most distinctive feature of this island is undoubtedly its massive volcano.
Secondly, there's the forest. The only difference between it and other isolated islands is its astonishingly large size, teeming with ferocious wild beasts.
But now, the island has completely changed its shape.
The forests are gone, the lakes have dried up, and more importantly... that towering volcano has vanished.
The mushroom cloud that blotted out the sky lasted for half an hour, not only because of the shockwave and the collision with the Golden Torrent, but also because of the volcano's evaporation, which produced the constantly flashing orange-red light.
It is the golden light that destroys everything, the process of evaporating magma and rocks.
In addition, the entire island is riddled with countless cracks.
Those cracks, large or small, coarse or fine, have made the island's ground precarious, with many dangerous-looking ravines.
Some are very hot, and some are very cold.
Some were even overflowing with seawater!
These cracks all tell the world that the island's lifespan has come to an end.
Future nautical charts of the New World will also erase any trace of 'Decalvan'.
While the world was shocked by the dramatic transformation of 'Decalvan'.
From the two main perspectives, we have finally found the two murderers who destroyed 'Decalvan'.
These two Monsters, each bearing the title of 'World's Strongest,' stood at their respective spots, panting and staring at each other.
A blue-white energy shield formed by electrical discharge appeared around Arthur, tightly enveloping him and protecting him from the 'contamination' of the dust and mist.
Whitebeard, however, was not so easily forgiven.
The World's Strongest Man, with his Whitebeard, looked rather disheveled, his white cloak long since blown away.
His scarred front half was exposed, along with his smooth, white back half bearing the Whitebeard Pirates- shaped mark.
The headscarf on his head was gone, revealing a bald head.
His white, crescent-shaped beard and face had become much darker, and the sweat dripping from his forehead made his 617 dusty faces look like those of a spotted cat.
Incredibly, despite the collision of these two incredibly powerful energy entities, the two individuals remained completely unharmed.
"Gurararara... What an incredible little Monster! If you hadn't killed Jozu and the others, I would have loved to have you as my son." Arthur, Whitebeard face slightly pale as he stared ahead, suddenly burst into hearty laughter, his tone filled with admiration and approval.
Despite the blood feud, Whitebeard had no choice but to admit it.
The kid in front of him was the most amazing potential he had ever seen in his decades of life.
To possess such incredible power at such a young age.
If it were in their time, the ocean would probably be completely different now.
The phrase "blessed by heaven" is insufficient to describe him; one can only say that he was destined to become a chosen one of the times.
Just like that guy Roger!!
"Heh... have you finished saying your last words?" Arthur, his face pale, laughed as his Mana waned.
A sense of regret lingered in his heart; he hadn't expected that Excalibur wouldn't be able to break the Seven Seals before the 'Avalon' Awakening.
Chapter 273 Ultimate Showdown, The World's Strongest (Sixteen)
Arthur's Mana has reached the (A+) level, which meets the conditions for breaking the Seven Seals on the 'Excalibur' and 'Rhongomyniad'.
Last time, he broke the Seven Seals on the 'Rhongomyniad', turning Kaido and 'Weilasituodi' into dust.
Just now, Arthur also wanted to use 'True Name Release: Excalibur' to break the Seven Seals.
However, after transferring almost all of his Mana to Excalibur, he discovered that he could only remove the Six Seals, but could not make the bladed scabbard, the 'Avalon,' disappear and reveal the true golden blade.
At that moment, Arthur understood that before completing the [Achievement Quest - Never Defeated] and fully Awakening the 'Avalon', even the Excalibur could not unleash its power beyond the Six Seals.
Arthur didn't know why.
But one thing is certain: it's definitely related to the game system!
Arthur had long realized that although he had obtained the template of 'Arthur Pendragon', there was a significant difference between him and the real 'Old Saber' Arthur Pendragon.
First is the True Name Release of Excalibur!
