Since Golden Lion's garden was destroyed, the second round of the banquet was arranged in Kaido's palace below.

Kaido was extremely gloating over this, saying, "Go ahead and show off, Shiki, you idiot, keep showing off!"

However, the banquet was not the main point; what everyone was more eager to know was what kind of abilities Abel, this newly minted Mythical Zoan user, possessed.

So, a guy volunteered to step forward and use himself to prove Abel's evolution.

"Go Bullet!"

Roa waved his arms and shouted at the top of his lungs, "We're going to force Abel to unleash all his abilities!"

"Yes, Boss!"

While responding earnestly to Roa, Bullet's gaze toward Abel ahead grew increasingly aggressive.

He could clearly see the intense fighting spirit in Abel's eyes.

Hmph, you can't wait either?

Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit indeed extraordinary, but if you think you can surpass me with that, you're just dreaming.

Abel, let me bring you back to reality!

"So,"

Roa took a deep breath. "Let's begin."

!

The next instant, Abel's exceptionally large black wings flapped, and the boy transformed into a black afterimage, rapidly rushing towards Bullet.

"The speed has increased significantly."

Dylan couldn't help but speak up, "Abel hasn't entered speed mode yet, has he?"

"It's the wind."

Sitting beside Roa, enjoying a few small dishes and a drink while watching the two kids play with interest, the Golden Lion calmly remarked, "The wind is speeding up that kid."

This ability alone is worth the price of admission.

Roa thought.

Wind and fire, a wonderful combination of elements.

"Come on, Abel!"

Facing the oncoming birdman, Bullet clenched his right fist and delivered a powerful blow!

Neither of them used their Haki; they simply clashed fist to fist!

A sudden blast of air erupted, sending dust flying across the square.

A figure flew backwards.

Bullet Wolf Fox landed, took two steps back on his knees, and then gritted his teeth to steady himself.

"Indeed, it wasn't an illusion."

Abel clenched his fist in delight, "Strength has increased the most!"

The Lunarian also possess extraordinary strength, but it is no match for Bullet's innate superhuman strength.

Now, having gained new abilities, he used overwhelming power to knock Bullet away!

"Is the second ability superhuman strength?"

Roa nodded slightly.

Zoan generally increase strength, but the exact amount depends on the quality of the fruit and its inherent abilities.

Clearly, the supernatural power bestowed upon the Tengu is extraordinary.

Why doesn't Abel transform into his beast form?

Doflamingo was somewhat puzzled, "That form must be more powerful!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Golden Lion sneered, "The Human-Human Fruit is a different type; there's no distinction between Beast Mode and Beast-Human Mode."

That's really true!

For Chopper, transforming into a human is his beast form, but what about for other humans who ate the Human-Human Fruit?

For example, Nikka Luffy doesn't distinguish between his beast form and beastman form.

"Stop being so arrogant, Abel!"

Feeling suppressed in his area of expertise, Bullet was very unhappy and retaliated by launching a mercury ball with a diameter of over twenty meters.

Abel raised his right hand, and the gale suddenly transformed into a giant tornado, crashing towards the mercury sphere like a white dragon.

The violent wind instantly tore the mercury sphere apart, scattering mercury everywhere.

But that wasn't enough; the mercury was too heavy.

Abel then extended his left hand.

Bear!

The blazing flames also transformed into a fire dragon that surged forth, merging with the gale in the next instant to form an incredibly violent fire tornado that directly engulfed the mercury sphere.

Sizzle!

Mercury is continuously evaporated, and mercury vapor diffuses outwards.

"Hey, isn't that stuff highly poisonous?"

The Golden Lion twitched the corner of his mouth.

Don't worry about it.

Roa waved his hand, and a sudden gust of wind arose, blowing away all the mercury vapor.

Abel's counterattack continues.

With his hands clasped together, the whirlwind from his right hand mingled with the flames from his left. With a push, enormous fiery wind blades roared out, pouring down like a torrential rain onto the area filled with mercury vapor.

"Mercury Cannon Cluster!"

Huge spheres of mercury were continuously launched, colliding repeatedly with the scorching and sharp blades of fire.

This further increases the concentration of mercury vapor.

"Is that all? Abel!"

Bullet shot into the air, his lower body accelerating with steam jets, and he hurtled towards Abel like a missile.

His right fist swelled rapidly, and with a downward punch, a massive sphere nearly thirty meters in diameter crashed down from the sky.

This time, the sphere was imbued with an aura of Haki.

Faced with Bullet's relentless, all-out attack, Abel didn't even try to dodge.

It won't hurt him anyway.

Why not try out a new skill?

With his hand already on the hilt of the Ame no Habakiri at his waist, Abel slowly let out a sigh of relief.

It's not an illusion; this ability can also...

"Cut!"

Rub!

Combining flames and wind, a massive crimson slash suddenly shot into the sky, colliding head-on with the falling mercury meteor.

The massive sphere suddenly trembled, and its downward momentum abruptly slowed.

"What?"

Bullet is completely wrong.

But what surprised him even more was yet to come.

Although slow, Abel's slash did indeed tear through the Haki defense on the mercury sphere, and then...

In the blink of an eye, the entire sphere was severed.

Boom!

The sphere, split in two, crashed to the ground one after another, causing the entire square to tremble.

Abel had already taken flight and pounced directly on Bullet.

"Flying Slash?"

Kaido his eyes. "But something feels off."

"Before today, Abel's swordsmanship was far from capable of such a feat."

"Abel's slashes have become even stronger," Roa said.

In Japanese legends, aren't there many samurai who seek out tengu to learn swordsmanship?

From this perspective, it's not unreasonable that this ability can amplify slashing attacks.

"Boom!"

In the sky, Bullet's jet-black Mercury Heavy Punch clashed with Abel's sword wreathed in wind and fire.

With a powerful shockwave, Abel was once again repelled.

After using his ability, Bullet's punches became inexplicably heavy.

What's even more incomprehensible is his unreasonable Armament Haki!

What is that?

Bullet looked at his fist in surprise; there was a small wound on it.

It pierced through his Haki, severed the massive mass of mercury covering his fist, and then injured him?

Abel's strength alone is far from enough!

"It seems to be a power capable of making the slash even stronger."

Abel came spreading his wings.

How many abilities do you actually have?!

Even with his composure, Bullet was somewhat annoyed, conjuring an even larger mercury fist and throwing a punch.

"Now this is the last one."

Abel said that.

Then.

"Um?"

Bullet's eyes widened suddenly.

It's gone!

"Disappeared!"

Doflamingo wiped his clamshell glasses, confirming that he wasn't seeing things; he had truly seen Abel vanish into thin air.

"It's invisible."

"Roa said."

It's probably modeled after the legendary Japanese ghost story, Shinzo Awakens.

However, it is completely meaningless to someone like myself who has the ability to observe emotions.

"His breathing has become much weaker."

Golden Lion suddenly raised an eyebrow. "Not bad. Those with poor Observation Haki can't detect him at all."

Bullet, on the other hand, is someone whose Observation Haki is inadequate.

Although he is exceptionally talented in Armament Haki, his Observation Haki is only passable. He is much better than the average person, but still far from being a master.

"Damn it! Where did you go?"

Bullet looked around, but couldn't see anything.

"Alright then! I'll show you my power!!"

A large amount of mercury suddenly gushed from his body, and in the next instant, it had already fallen to the ground, churning and surging.

Then suddenly the shaping began.

A few seconds later, the enormous Mercury Giant, over fifty meters tall, stood tall in the square!

Rub!

It even took effect, as a layer of black Haki suddenly covered the surface of the Mercury Giant's body.

"What?"

Golden Lion was greatly surprised, "What's wrong with this kid? Is his Armament Haki normal?"

Such a quantity!

Isn't this kid the same age as Roa?

"That brat is a monster too."

Kaido snorted coldly, a hint of envy in his tone.

These men of Roa's, they really deserve to be called men.

Even the weakest of them all, Doflamingo, at least possesses Conqueror's Haki!

Even the invisible Abel was having a headache. Bullet's most troublesome trait was his Armament Haki, which was ridiculously strong!

But we have to give it a try.

Wings flapped, and it flew at full speed.

Suddenly, several deep gashes appeared on the back of the Mercury Giant.

However, it was only superficially damaged, far from inflicting internal injuries on the Bullet.

Moreover, these openings were repaired in the next instant.

"How long are you going to hide?!"

Bullet was very unhappy about being passively attacked, and in the next instant, a large amount of mercury vapor poured out from the giant's body.

It instantly filled the entire space.

Although Abel was not afraid of the high temperature, the surging mercury vapor eventually exposed his body.

A massive, Mercury Heavy Punch slammed down.

"Too slow."

After easily dodging the punch, the blade merged with fire, coiling around its edge, and then unleashed a massive, almost giant-sized attack.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Bullet fearlessly swung his fist to meet the attack, his fist swelling further, and the black slab almost gleamed.

Boom! Quantity!

Roa squinted. "That's about it. It's a pretty impressive Devil Fruit ability."

This allowed Abel, who was originally far behind Bullet, to possess the power to rival Bullet.

Although Bullet was originally no match for Abel, that was only on the defensive end. Now, it's really a close call.

Max, the weakest of the three non-cadres who came as guests with the Golden Lion, looked somewhat melancholy. These two kids were already close to him in strength, while he was two or three times their age.

I'm very satisfied!

Roa nodded and looked at the Golden Lion, "Uncle Shiki, you'd better hurry up over there."

"You don't need to tell me,"

Golden Lion casually retorted, "I'm even more cunning than you."

He glanced again at Bullet and Abel, who were locked in a fierce battle in the square, and said, "Bring those two brats along too."

Bullet and Abel's level, even if placed in the Rocks Pirates six years ago, would have been enough to qualify them as apprentices.

"That's a different price. If I'm Mythical Zoan, Bullet and Abel would at least be Ancient Zoan, right?"

"You brat, don't go too far!"

In short, the Flying Pirates temporarily stopped in the skies above Wano Country, waiting for the Roger Pirates to show their tracks while repairing their base.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the North Blue, in Flevance.

This white town, once known for its beauty and wealth, has now descended into chaos.

Countless people flooded the streets, and some, led by certain individuals, stormed the royal palace.

Caught off guard, the royal family hid in the palace, utterly terrified.

"Where did they get their weapons? They're even better than the King's army's!"

"The army has defected! The palace gates are about to fall!"

"What happened? What exactly happened?! How did those lowly people find out the truth?!"

"Damn it! Those lowly people all deserve to die! They should just obediently mine for us and then die!"

Yuan Hui screamed and cursed, and chaos erupted in the palace.

At that moment, with a deafening roar, and with the help of the defecting army, the rioting crowd finally broke through the palace gates and stormed into the magnificent palace.

A man rushed up the city wall, roaring at the top of his lungs, "Fellow countrymen! This is not a riot, nor a rebellion, this is our revenge!"

"The royal family doesn't want us to live, and the World Government wants us to die! They've pushed us into hell!"

We, our children, everyone in this country, have no future!

Tears streamed down his face.

A burst of weeping and roaring erupted from the rioting crowd below.

"They want us to die quietly, but we can't let them have our way!"

The man on the city wall roared, "Respond to the royal family! Respond to the World Government! Respond to all those who don't want us to live!"

"Repeat!"

"Repeat!"

"Repeat!"

A desperate roar echoed throughout the entire country.

This country has fallen into utter chaos, and soon this chaos will begin to spread throughout the North Blue.
