Defeating Diamante!

To dispel Diamante's guess.

Yun Ye raised his hand, pale explosive flames gathering in his palm, then spewing out, covering everyone in the Donquixote Family within its range.

One person among them didn't have time to dodge and was directly hit by Yun Ye's attack, dying instantly.

The rest all managed to dodge.

Diamante, who was being primarily dealt with by Yun Ye, was not injured thanks to the concealment of his cape, though he was pushed back several steps.

Diamante looked at Yun Ye, his brows furrowed even deeper: "Flames, lightning, what kind of Devil Fruit did you eat? Not an Ancient Zoan, not a Logia, could it be a Paramecia-type Element-Element Fruit?"

Diamante's eyes flashed; he had seen the Devil Fruit Compendium and understood Devil Fruits better than others.

But it was truly rare to find one that could simultaneously release two different attributes.

If not for Big Mom still being active in the New World, he would have thought it was a manifestation of the Soul-Soul Fruit!

After much thought, he could only recall hearing about a Paramecia-type Element Fruit with such an ability!

Upon hearing the name of this fruit, Yun Ye was stunned, then secretly thought: 'Good idea, other people's imagination is indeed useful. From now on, I am the user of the Paramecia-type Element-Element Fruit!!'

With that thought, Yun Ye said indifferently, without refuting: "Something like that!"

Compared to some "Lightning-Lightning Fruit" or "Flame-Flame Fruit," the Paramecia-type Element-Element Fruit was more fitting and had more gravitas.

Within Kido, there were many elemental abilities.

Using the excuse of an Element Fruit could also be seen as plausible.

Then, Yun Ye sneered at Diamante: "However, even if you know my Devil Fruit ability, so what? Do you think you can defeat me with just that?"

Lightning crackled behind Yun Ye, leaving behind a fleeting white lightning in his place as his figure vanished.

He reappeared beside Diamante, his fist trailing white lightning, the White Lightning enhancing his punch, crackling and snapping, making Yun Ye's punch even more ferocious!

"Heavy Blast Flow!"

Yun Ye threw a punch, lightning snakes surging, unleashing terrifying power.

As mentioned before, once a skill's proficiency reached 100, Yun Ye could fully control it and was no longer limited to a single attack method!

"Not good!"

Diamante's Observation Haki sensed Yun Ye's movement, but his body couldn't keep up, so he could only grit his teeth and endure.

His cape and the sword in his hand seemed to soften at this moment, eventually intertwining to form a bull-horn shield, which he raised to block Yun Ye's attack!

Boom!

Furious lightning surged, striking the bull-horn shield, instantly erupting with terrifying power.

With one strike, the ground beneath Diamante's feet suddenly caved in, forming a large pit, with dense cracks spreading outwards!

Feeling the boundless force transmitted through the shield in his hand into his body, Diamante couldn't help but grunt, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth!

Enduring the piercing pain, Diamante gritted his teeth and roared: "Army Flag!"

Following his low growl, the ground began to ripple like silk cloth, causing a loss of balance.

Yun Ye's center of gravity was momentarily thrown off, and Diamante seized the opportunity. The bull-horn shield changed again, sharp bull horns extending, becoming exceedingly sharp!

"Bullfight Long Stand!"

The tip of the bull horn thrust towards Yun Ye's chest, aiming for a fatal blow.

However, Yun Ye could briefly levitate. He stepped on the air with Flash Step, twisting his body to evade.

"Die for me, Sword: Snake Sword!"

Diamante was relentless, his face contorted in ferocity, the cloth-like longsword once again darting out like a venomous snake.

'As expected, I can't underestimate anyone. These are experts who have operated in the New World; their combat experience is indeed incredibly rich!'

Yun Ye's expression sharpened, he sighed inwardly at Diamante's combat experience, as he had instantly seized the opportunity to counterattack.

But... still too slow and too weak!

Although the longsword appeared to be in the shape of a cloth piece, it was still fundamentally a sword, exceptionally sharp.

Yun Ye currently did not possess Armament Haki, and his mortal body would definitely not be a match for the blade.

And Yun Ye wouldn't be foolish enough to catch it with his hand.

Sensing the sword blade about to hit him, Yun Ye flicked his finger, and White Lightning struck the side of the longsword, deflecting its trajectory and passing by Yun Ye.

"This is impossible! You know Observation Haki too!?"

Diamante was greatly alarmed; his attack had been seen through, it was Observation Haki!

"Nothing is impossible." Yun Ye raised his other hand, supporting the explosive flames, and swept them forward. Explosions sounded, sending the other few people flying.

A sinister arc formed on Yun Ye's lips, and his cold voice came from behind the mask: "Caught you!"

He pressed forward, and before Diamante could react, both his fists pulsed with white lightning, then slammed down heavily!

Boom boom!

Crack—

Two massive explosions rang out, followed by the sound of something shattering.

In Yun Ye's sight, Diamante's cape and his clothes, made of special steel, shattered simultaneously!

Diamante's pupils contracted violently. His chest caved in, countless ribs broken. A tremendous force pressed down, smashing him into the ground!

Yun Ye's punch penetrated his body, damaging his internal organs and causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood!

"It's not over yet." Yun Ye knew how durable people in the pirate world were; their "blood-locking sit-ups" were commonplace.

Striking while the iron is hot was the only way!

Another lightning-infused kick landed. With a "boom," the ground shattered even more severely, dense cracks appearing within a radius of dozens of meters.

This building couldn't withstand the continuous assault either and collapsed with a roar!

Just before the building was about to collapse, Yun Ye used Flash Step to leave his original position, arriving at another building and calmly watching the smoke and dust rising from below.

His senses told him Diamante's aura was extremely weak, almost extinguished.

"Hey, you can't just die like this. If you die, how will my next plan proceed?"

Yun Ye muttered, arriving at a pile of rubble. He picked up the unconscious Diamante.

Then, he threw him in a certain direction and ordered, "Heal him. If he dies, you die. If he lives, I'll spare your life."

Over there, a subordinate who was not as heavily injured looked at Yun Ye with terrified eyes.

It was as if he were looking at a demon!

This person, even a top executive of the family, was no match for him!

Yun Ye snorted coldly, "Hurry up, are you looking to die?"

"Yes! Yes!"

The subordinate trembled and began searching through the rubble for medical supplies. He then approached Diamante, providing emergency treatment.

Diamante's aura remained weak. With injuries like these, even with the physical resilience of people in the pirate world, it would take at least ten days to half a month to fully recover.
