The two fought for another day. It was now the tenth day. Their battle had been intense from the very beginning, and every move was deadly and spectacular.
Boom... Rumble!
The heavens and earth seemed to turn upside down. Amidst the raging winds and rain, a halo swept through the clouds before suddenly crashing down. A vast chasm opened through the middle of Biyadi Island, stretching all the way to the sea.
Earthquakes, tsunamis, and shifting landmasses—Biyadi Island had begun to break apart in earnest, and it wasn't the first island to suffer that fate.
Over the past nine days and nights, the two had already destroyed countless small islands.
Whoosh~
A sword beam flashed across the sky, blindingly bright.
A streak of light plunged from above. Kong lay amid the heaving earth, his mouth full of blood.
Close on its heels, a Slash attack hurtled down. The shattered crater split in two like a watermelon, its center plunging into unfathomable depths and opening onto hell itself. Seawater surged up in a frantic rush.
In the blink of an eye, a vast lake formed, as if a volcano had erupted.
Lone Red panted heavily, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then straightened the broken bones in his chest with several sharp cracks.
Water splashed everywhere as Kong rose from the lake and landed on the ruins. The thick, golden-black coating of Armament Haki had vanished from his chest, leaving a sword wound behind. Blood poured from it.
His chest heaved. Sweat covered Kong's face, which had gone deathly pale, and he kept coughing up blood.
At over eighty years old, he was bound to feel his age.
Ten straight days and nights of high-intensity combat would overwhelm even a young man, let alone Kong.
