Melting into Flowing Lava!

This is already the Four Heavens of the first 'Paramount War'.

The sky above RL1111 Area was still shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds, making the light in this area very dim and oppressive.

Only when purple lightning occasionally flashed below would the scene brighten for a few seconds, followed by Rumble-Rumble roars and furious shouts of the two men filled with fighting spirit.

Kaido, maintaining his dragon-man form, has grown even taller than his original seven-meter height, reaching nearly ten meters. Although he is still considerably shorter than the thirty-meter-tall 'Tree Man' Aramaki.

However, the powerful aura emanating from him, accompanied by crackling purple lightning, made him appear even more forceful and domineering than Aramaki.

Most importantly, anyone who can even slightly understand the battle situation can easily see that Kaido is completely dominating Aramaki, forcing the latter's massive tree-like body to retreat repeatedly.

It's like a Titans wielding a spiked club, its body crackling with Purple Lightning, relentlessly smashing down an even larger monster.

"Great Awe Thunder Bagua!"

In an instant, Kaido transformed into a bolt of lightning and appeared above Aramaki's head. Streaks of electricity crackled across his skin and between his iron rods. He gripped the rod handle tightly with both hands and slammed the long purple electric threads down hard on the latter's head.

[Boom!!]

The already damaged Red Line earth beneath Aramaki sank even deeper, the air exploded, the roar was like thunder, and a visible shockwave swept outwards, sweeping away thousands of trees, fragments of the Sky Island, and even the ground itself.

Aramaki himself was beaten so badly that he was seeing stars and was on the verge of collapse.

Far away in the Giant World, Enel was watching the 'Paramount War Marineford' from the top floor of Noah. Seeing Kaido's series of attacks all imbued with Raiden, he felt a mix of emotions, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He then turned to the supreme being in his heart and asked, "Lord Imu, are there many people who can use Raiden?"

"Not many, but not few either; there are multiple ways to control the power of Raiden."

Imu thought for a moment and then gave this answer.

Even disregarding Big Mom, Kaido, a Devil Fruit User, can manipulate Raiden using either Vinsmoke's cyborg technology, the weather technology of Weatheria Sky Island, or the Mink Tribe's innate abilities.

"If Awakening Conqueror's Haki and further masters the technique of Coating, one can also unleash 'Mental Lightning,' but this lightning primarily affects the mental level of living beings."

Enel fell silent, somewhat unhappy, after hearing this. He had originally thought that the power of Raiden belonged exclusively to him.

Just then, Lord Imu said, "Raiden is actually alright, but fire is the most common ability; basically, everyone can conjure fire."

In the original manga "Future," Luffy utilizes the principle of high-speed friction to ignite fire, enabling him to develop techniques like the "Fire-Fist Pistol," which can burn even underwater.

In other words, once you master Armament Haki, as long as you swing your sword or punch fast enough, you can still unleash the so-called 'flame slash' and 'Fire Fist'.

That's why there's a saying, "Even a dog wouldn't eat the Flame-Flame Fruit!"

This RL1111 Area.

The fierce battle between Aramaki and Kaido continues. Although the former is in a slightly more disheveled state, as the Awakened Beings of the Woods-Woods Fruit, he can easily hold out for another three days and three nights.

However, the format of the 'Paramount War' didn't give him that much time.

He has less than a day left to live.

[Boom----]

The spiked club, crackling with intense purple lightning, clashed once more with the giant treant's dark fist.

The shockwave exploded, and Tornado swept through!

"What's wrong? Is this all you've got? Aramaki!"

"You want to be Admiral? Then beat me! If you win, you'll be Admiral, Worororo----"

Ignoring his tattered blue coat, Kaido roared at Aramaki, his thick neck bulging with veins. But as soon as he finished speaking, he burst into laughter, his laughter filled with joy and exhilaration.

"Damn it, you're too arrogant, you monster!"

Aramaki's face was extremely ashen. He immediately frantically activated the power of the Devil Fruit within his body, gathering all the trees within a radius of several kilometers and forming four wooden arms, each a hundred meters tall, at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I'm a future Army General, show some respect, you worthless dragon!"

With Aramaki roar, two of the 'arms' opened into huge wooden palms, forcefully pressing down on the thick air currents to grab at Kaido.

Kaido sensed the immense power emanating from those hands and instantly realized that this guy was about to get serious.

Without a word, he transformed into purple lightning and disappeared from the spot, rushing towards Aramaki's main body, only to find two other 'arms' blocking his way.

Behind them, the two 'arms' that had been there before caught up again with remarkable agility.

"You really think I'm afraid of you?"

Kaido was furious; he hated being treated like a 'bird' and being grabbed and handled like this.

The next moment, lightning surged all over his body, flowing like water to the surface of the spiked club, instantly making it dazzling with electric light and crackling with electric snakes, before he swung it out towards the two huge wooden hands that were outstretched in front of him.

"King Kong -shaped Diproton!"

Instantly, amidst the Tornado currents, a pillar-shaped column of purple electricity appeared out of thin air. However, the wooden palm opposite also slammed its palm into the air, creating a surging wind pressure that was visible to the naked eye and had a ghostly green glow.

[Boom boom boom!]

The purple column of energy clashed with the green palm strike.

To Kaido's surprise, the latter managed to block his attack by Emission his Armament Haki. He hadn't expected that Aramaki's Armament Haki had become much stronger than before.

Is it because of Wrath?

At this moment, two dark wooden hands behind him, dragging thick wooden arms, caught up, like two 'giant snakes' rooted in the Red Line earth.

"If that's the case, then let me see where your limits are!"

Kaido roared to the sky and transformed once again into an Azure Dragon that was two or three hundred meters long. But just as he finished transforming, two even larger wooden hands grabbed his dragon body.

"Roar------"

The Azure Dragon roared, its sonic waves carrying terrifying purple lightning, but the damage it inflicted on the wooden palm healed at an extremely fast pace, still preventing him from breaking free.

At the same time, because his body was caught and unable to rotate, he was unable to create Tornado Tatsumaki.

As he attempted to unleash his dragon breath, two other wooden hands swiftly reached out and blocked his mouth, forcefully intercepting the scorching beam of flame.

Although he himself was utterly destroyed, it also prevented him from breaking free and leaving.

At the same time.

Two 'wooden hands', each a hundred meters tall, burst forth from the nearby ground, one gripping the Azure Dragon's throat and the other Azure Dragon tail.

The 'Tree Man' that Aramaki had transformed into vented all the anger he had received on the Azure Dragon.

He had already realized how tough this guy was, so he directly created a long, sharp wooden spear in his hand and used Armament Haki's Internal Destruction technique to stab it hard into the Azure Dragon's body.

"It's over!"

Aramaki gritted his teeth and activated the second ability of the Woods-Woods Fruit: to absorb nutrients, or rather, vitality.

In conclusion

Once someone is hit by this move, all the power within their body will be completely drained, leaving them utterly unable to resist.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Aramaki sensed something was wrong, because he discovered that the Azure Dragon's body temperature was rising at an alarming rate, and its skin was beginning to glow with an ominous red light.

[Boom!]

The next second, flames of a temperature far exceeding that of ordinary Huoguang condensed and instantly melted the four wooden hands that were gripping the Azure Dragon.

It also ignited Aramaki, who had transformed into a 'tree man,' causing him to retreat steadily amidst the raging flames and frantically increase the distance between himself and Kaido.

"Ah----, what is this thing? Aren't you only supposed to breathe fire?!"

At this moment, all the viewers watching the live broadcast were astonished to find that the already huge azure Azure Dragon had turned into an even bigger Fire Dragon, estimated to be nearly a thousand meters long!

He was simply floating in mid-air.

That was enough to cause all the trees in RL1111 Area to spontaneously combust, and to continuously melt the ravaged Red Line into flowing lava.

I've already learned about the slow pace and lack of exciting moments from the readers in the group, and we will speed up the pace going forward.

However, I don't think what I wrote before was filler, because each chapter contained valuable information about the changes in Sea Star.

If you keep skipping around and then don't understand what's going on later, don't ask me.
