"Ugh!"

Crocodile let out a muffled groan as his body flew through the air.

He crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

His once neatly combed slicked-back hair was now completely disheveled, and his body was very wet, as if he had been soaking in water, with even the bloodstains at the corners of his mouth dissolving.

"How weak."

Jack stood with all four legs planted on the ground, casually flicking his right hand, "Water Shot."

The water droplets secreted from the palms flew out like cannonballs at lightning speed.

Crocodile's eye twitched, and he quickly rolled over in a disheveled manner.

Boom.

The small water droplets that hit the sandy ground had astonishing consequences.

The ground was blasted open, creating a huge hole, and Crocodile was blown away along with it.

"It's said that you once had a fierce battle with that devil heir, Douglas Bullet, and even challenged Whitebeard,"

Jack looked at Crocodile, who had stood up in a disheveled state, and asked, "What happened to you? Why are you like this now?"

"Don't look down on me, you brat!"

Crocodile's eyes flashed with a fierce light. Jack's words touched on a corner he absolutely did not want anyone to know. "Corrosion Cycle!"

He pressed his right hand onto the ground.

The desert began to tremble, then flowed and sank rapidly as if its supports had been removed, turning it into a hellish quicksand that devoured everything.

But--

"It's pointless!"

Jack snorted and simultaneously launched himself into the air with all four legs.

Geppo!

Then he lunged straight at Crocodile.

"Hateful!!"

The Desert King gritted his teeth, opened his right hand, and a small whirlwind formed in his palm. "Weight Sandstorm!"

With a flick of Crocodile's right hand, a massive sand Tornado formed, threatening to engulf Jack.

But--

"Fish-Man Karate Secret Technique - Mugen!"

Boom boom boom boom!

On another, slightly more distant battlefield, the clash between ice and fire continued.

"Dog Bite Crimson Lotus!"

Akainu swung his right hand, and a massive lava head blasted out.

"Thunder Bagua!"

Yamato swung his Spiked Club.

This time it was a real thunderous octagonal Thunder Bagua, with jet-black Inazuma flashing.

The Spiked Club smashed the dog-headed magma to pieces, freezing it into stone in the process.

However, Yamato still took a slight step back.

This guy's attack power is ridiculously strong.

Each punch was like a volcanic eruption, accumulating unparalleled power, making Yamato feel that the fight was very difficult.

"Nether Dog!!"

Akainu showed no mercy, his right fist transforming into molten lava, imbued with Haki, and unleashing a blast accompanied by a scorching heatwave.

This strike could pierce through even a mountain peak.

Yamato quickly slung the Spiked Club back behind his back, gripped Sirius's greatsword with both hands, and black Inazuma and white frost simultaneously wrapped around the sword.

"Ice Sever!"

Boom!!

Frost and lava erupted simultaneously.

The ground behind Yamato was frozen.

The ground behind Akainu melted.

Then, in the next instant, Yamato was blasted away.

That's incredibly powerful!

It really feels like we're battling a volcano!

"Conqueror's Haki Infusion?"

Akainu, enveloped in lava, melted the ground with every step he took, turning the surrounding area into a pool of magma. "How naive."

However, he still looked at the sword in Yamato's hand with some apprehension; the sharpness of that sword was well known to everyone in the Navy.

He was also constrained, unable to unleash his full physical skills in combat, and could only use ranged attacks.

Yamato took a slight breath and gripped his greatsword tightly.

The downside of using this sword to maintain the Haki Coating is that it consumes a lot of Haki. Sirius himself couldn't maintain it for long, let alone Yamato, who was only connected to the sword.

But it's okay.

I feel like I'm just a little bit away!

There was no fear in Yamato's eyes, only anticipation.

It was so close!

He gripped the greatsword tightly with both hands, and black Inazuma flickered up.

"Again!"

She roared, approaching like a white line, freezing the ground wherever she passed.

"Ice Sever!"

"Act recklessly!"

Akainu snorted, "Great Eruption!"

Boom boom boom boom!

The clash between ice and fire continues.

"Is this really a good idea, Sirius?"

In the sky, the guerrilla warfare between Kizaru and Sirius continued. He flashed to create distance and then released a beam of light, before changing position again, taking his sneaky tactics to the extreme.

"Sakazuki has absolutely no idea what it means to be gentle and considerate towards women."

Mind your own business.

Sirius spewed flames that clashed with Kizaru's beam of light.

Deflecting this guy's attacks isn't difficult, but the problem is that this guy is as slippery as an eel.

At my speed, there's no way I could catch this guy.

Calm down.

Calm down.

Sirius a slow sigh of relief, ignoring the monkey's idle chatter, and focused all his attention on perceiving the surrounding atmosphere.

Observation Haki is honed to its extreme, it can even allow one to glimpse the future.

That's what Rayleigh said.

But is that really the case?

Is it really necessary to hone Observation Haki to its absolute limit?

If that's really the case, how did the Straw Hat Kid manage to do it after only two years of learning Haki? Wasn't his Observation Haki stronger Doflamingo's before?

Ultimately, Future Sight is also a skill, just like the external release of Armament Haki and the Internal Destruction of Conqueror's Haki; it's simply a high-level skill.

Sirius has fought against Katakuri and the man codenamed Zero; both are ruthless characters who have mastered Observation Haki Future Sight.

During his fierce battles with the two, Sirius gained some insights into the Future Sight.

Moreover, he has been diligently cultivating during this time, and now it is time for his Haki to blossom and bear fruit.

He took a deep breath, then Sirius, and closed his eyes.

"Kindness?"

Kizaru frowned slightly. "What does this mean? Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?"

But of course he wouldn't let this opportunity pass, and beams of light rained down on Sirius.

Sirius began to dodge constantly, pushing his Observation Haki to its limit as he peered into the world and continuously tried to advance further.

Below, on the ground, the battle between Yamato and Akainu continued.

Yamato didn't bother dodging at all; he simply kept swinging his greatsword to meet Akainu's attacks head-on.

Court death.

Akainu sneered, of course he wouldn't tolerate Yamato, and unleashed a barrage of powerful attacks.

Kizaru also felt that Sirius was courting death, and the beam of light was almost like a storm, blocking out the sky.

Yamato was no match for Akainu, and the result of her recklessness was that she suffered many burns all over her body, and even a section of her beautiful hair was burned off.

Even with his exceptional dodging skills, Sirius couldn't perfectly dodge all the storm-like beams of light, and his body was quickly blasted to shreds.

But the battle continues, and it keeps going.

Sirius and Yamato planted a seed and then worked diligently to nurture and care for it.

The seeds gradually sprouted, broke through the soil, grew branches and leaves, and then one day flower buds appeared.

But it never bloomed.

Until now, a violent storm has struck.

The stubborn flower buds raised their heads.

Sirius suddenly curled the corners of his mouth into a smile, and a series of unfamiliar images flashed through his mind!

Yamato suddenly curled the corners of his mouth into a smile, and even more dazzling Inazuma flashed on his jet-black greatsword!

Braving the fierce winds and torrential rain, the flowers finally bloomed.

Sirius opened his eyes, laughed, and said, "Monkey, you're in for a world of trouble."

Yamato pulled out his Spiked Club from his back again. "I'm not afraid of you anymore!"
