The Strong

"What is this?! It's so cool!"

Koza had already fled far away with King Cobra, but after just one glance back, he couldn't look away.

"Really."

Cobra couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Giant.

A jet-black giant stood tall beneath the setting sun.

A mechanical giant.

Sharp edges and corners, full of the beauty of steel.

Its entire body radiated a dim metallic sheen, giving off an invisible, chilling aura.

Just standing here, he already attracted everyone's attention.

Who wouldn't love a giant humanoid weapon that can transform?

"Wow, that's really exaggerated!"

Kizaru couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "A ship can actually transform into this shape! What an ingenious idea!"

"So cool!"

Yamato's eyes lit up.

"Is it already possible to achieve this level of morphological change?"

Maria exclaimed, "Could it be that Black is stronger than me now?"

"It's not that it's impossible, it's that it's certain," Luo replied with a smile.

Otherwise, why would the captain have agreed to let Black deal with the Admiral candidate?

"Indeed, it's a remarkable transformation."

Kaji clapped Tokikake a grin, as if he had just witnessed a fantastic drama. "But simply getting bigger won't be enough to beat me, you know."

"You can't know for sure until you've fought it, right?"

Black calmly countered with a question.

"That's true."

Tokikake chuckled and pushed the hat he was wearing on his head. Then, in the next instant, he vanished into thin air, leaving only the ground he had been standing on cracked open, with sand and gravel flying everywhere.

Meanwhile, Tokikake himself had already soared into the air in that instant, hurtling straight at Black like a cannonball.

Tokikake truly lived up to his reputation as a candidate for Admiral. His speed was astonishing, and ordinary people could not even catch a glimpse of him with the naked eye. Even experts skilled in Observation Haki could only barely keep up with his speed.

However, Black is not human. Although he cannot use Observation Haki, he has more than one pair of mechanical eyes.

"Too slow."

The giant Mechanical Giant's eyes suddenly lit up, and then two dazzling beams of light shot out, directly hitting Tokikake was rushing towards it.

This is Laser Weapon developed using weapons obtained from Birka.

"Oh! I feel like my copyright has been infringed, Black Wolf. Can I ask you for copyright fees?" Kizaru looked somewhat aggrieved in the sky.

Sirius completely ignored him, having long wanted to teach this stinky monkey a lesson.

He simply kept pursuing them without thinking.

However, the dead monkey had no intention of engaging him head-on. Instead, it used its speed advantage to create distance without blinking, and then used beam attacks to harass him.

However, this may not necessarily be a bad thing!

Sirius's lips curled into a smile.

Let me try cultivating myself too!

Observation Haki activated to its fullest potential!

Boom!!

Amidst the brilliant fireworks, a figure crashed down like a meteorite, causing the ground to bloom like a flower.

At the same time, numerous jets on the massive Sirius began spewing flames, allowing this colossal Mechanical Giant to display astonishing speed before crashing down with a deafening punch.

This desert was directly blown apart, with sand and dust rising hundreds of meters high, and an earthquake struck.

The originally uneven desert was completely leveled after this attack, with the only exception being the huge basin created by the Sirius.

"What kind of power is this?!"

Law, who was casually slicing a navy soldier into pieces with a single sword stroke, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

If he had taken that punch, he probably would have turned into mincemeat.

"That's really exaggerated!"

Amidst a small sand dune, Chaton Tokikake dust and dirt. "Luckily, I hid quickly!"

You have nowhere to run!

The giant's eyes glowed red as it locked onto Chaton, then two cannon barrels emerged from its shoulders, crackling with electricity.

Sizzle!

With two soft clicks, propelled by the electromagnetic field, two enormous projectiles shot out, piercing through the air in an instant.

Railgun!

"That's enough! Do pirates even have this kind of technology?"

Feeling that the Tokikake was unacceptable, he quickly shaved his head and rushed forward.

However, the Railgun were much faster than him; one landed where he had been standing, and the other landed not far from him.

It was a prediction; Black added a prediction.

Boom!

Another astonishing explosion occurred, sending sand and gravel flying everywhere. The world seemed to be engulfed in dust and debris, Tokikake was directly blasted away by the massive shockwave.

Keep in mind that this is Railgun that could severely damage CP0 executives even before its upgrade.

"What exactly is this?"

Crocodile stared blankly at the rampaging giant steel titan.

Such astonishing power—could this be what he has been searching for all along?

"You have time to look around when you're fighting me?"

Jack, in his Human-Beast Form, came thundering in.

"Mammoth Jack?"

Crocodile's lips curled into a disdainful smile. "You don't actually think we're on the same level, do you?"

"We're definitely not on the same level! Fish-Man Karate Secret Technique - Mugen!"

"Cough cough cough cough, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts--"

Tokikake coughed as he rolled over to sit up. His clothes were tattered, making him look like a beggar. "What kind of power is this?!"

Pirates actually possess ships with such advanced technology? That's outrageous!

But now is not the time to complain; beams of light pierced through the swirling dust like a torrential downpour.

"..."

Chaton could only desperately dodge and weave.

The earth was blown apart, and the sky and earth shook instantly.

However, amidst a series of explosions, a dark figure was launched into the air.

Chaton!

As expected of a man hailed as a candidate for Admiral, he forcefully broke through the beam bombardment and threw a punch at the giant.

At the same time, dazzling electric light leaped up from the giant's right arm, and a massive number of jets of fire began to Fire Breath out simultaneously, and then Black also threw a punch.

Boom!

A thunderclap resounded in the sky.

Chaton and Black's fists were briefly locked in mid-air.

But it was only for a moment; unable to gain leverage in the air, the Chaton was sent flying in an instant.

"So hard! It's too hard!"

He shouted.

At the same time, several beam cannons followed closely behind.

"They actually knocked Chaton away?"

Maria asked with some curiosity, "Is the material of the Sirius really that strong?"

It's true that it can block Jack's attack, but this is Chaton! A reserve Admiral!

"It's just some electromagnetic protection technology."

Black remained calm and composed.

"It's impossible to fight now, how can we fight it!"

Chaton, having finally landed, has never longed to become a Devil Fruit User as much as he does now. It seems he can no longer be a perfect couple with Gion, even without Devil Fruit User.

"Brother Sakazuki, let's trade! Let's trade opponents!"

"That idiot!"

Akainu snorted.

"You are not allowed to go anywhere! Ice Sever!"

Yamato roared, and his Spiked Club and greatsword came crashing down at the same time.
