Blow Up the Island! An Admiral Falls!

A golden flash illuminated the sky, dazzlingly bright.

Storm's "Clay Nika Form" was not noticed by Kizaru and Akainu immediately because of its dazzling light.

Akainu, who had come from the island below, noticed the change in Storm's aura and vaguely guessed that the other party might be about to unleash some new ability, so he silently increased his vigilance.

However, Akainu was more concerned about the Clay Shield that was about to crack and shatter under the impact of "Hell Hound"!

'Strike first, strike hard!'

A thought flashed through Akainu's mind.

He gritted his teeth slightly, and scorching magma gushed from his body, merging into the "Hell Hound".

The previously slender "Hell Hound" expanded in size after being infused with this new power.

In the blink of an eye.

The "Hell Hound" then swelled into --

"Great Eruption!"

Akainu's right arm transformed into an enormous lava fist, carrying a terrifying impact like a volcanic eruption, completely shattering the Clay Shield blocking Storm's back.

The Clay Shield shattered and broke apart, and white clay fragments scattered like flowers falling from the sky.

Akainu had assumed that behind the Clay Shield would be Storm's back.

He was planning to press his advantage and inflict heavy damage on the enemy in one fell swoop!

But unexpectedly, what was hidden behind the white shield was not Storm's back, but Storm's fist!

Storm unleashed his Eight-Star [Clay Fruit] ability, but he also knew how to prioritize.

Compared to the sky above, where Kizaru fought with flashy and incredibly cool Kizaru.

The enemy we need to be more wary of is Akainu, who soars from the lower Ruschired Island into the sky!

Storm merely reinforced the "Clay Shield" facing the sky, then turned around and confidently entrusted his back to Kizaru.

--Something seems off?

Storm didn't think about it in detail at the moment.

He turned to look down, and the nearly shattered Clay Shield instantly came into view. Behind the cracks in the shield, he also noticed and perceived the rising heat and dark red light emanating from the magma.

Storm's eyes were very calm. He concentrated all his strength in his right hand, frantically charging up his power while continuously releasing the power of the Clay- Clay Fruit. His fist continued to expand and grow larger.

The jet-black [Armament Haki] first wrapped around the surface of his fist, and then black and red arcs of electricity also climbed onto the surface of his fist, which was clearly his [Conqueror's Haki]!

Just as Akainu's "Great Eruption" shattered the "Clay Shield"...

Storm's massive iron fist, which he had been gathering power for a long time, swung down heavily.

"Peerless Conqueror's Fist!"

Nine-Star Conqueror's Haki!

Eight-Star [Armament Haki]!

Eight-Star [Clay Fruit]!

In addition, Storm himself had already reached the level of eight and a half stars.

The power of this punch even surpasses the Musou Punch that Storm used to defeat Beasts Kaido!

Akainu's "Great Eruption" has just shattered the "Clay Shield".

He crashed directly into the "Peerless Conqueror's Fist" that was falling from the sky!

Two equally enormous fists collided violently in mid-air, and a deafening roar erupted in the sky above Ruschired Island.

Boom boom boom--

The violent airflow transformed into rolling shockwaves, bursting out and spreading in all directions.

Akainu's "Great Eruption" collided with Storm's "Peerless Conqueror's Fist," but it was as if he had hit an "unshakable Wall of Sighs."

Not only did he fail to break through the opponent's defense, but he also ended up with a painful jolt in his own arm.

Akainu felt the astonishing power transmitted from the "Peerless Conqueror's Fist," even his usually cold and hard face, like obsidian, couldn't help but show a look of shock.

His seemingly indestructible "Great Eruption" lava giant fist only lasted a short while under the "Peerless Conqueror's Fist" before being directly blasted into the air.

Lava scattered and splashed everywhere, as if a meteor shower had fallen here.

Storm's "Peerless Conqueror's Fist" continued its downward blast.

Akainu was right next to him, had no time to dodge and was directly hit by this peerless iron fist. He fell towards Ruschired Island like a meteor, and his speed was even greater than when he was flying.

Boom--

Akainu's body fell like a meteorite, crashing directly onto the land of Ruschired Island and striking the active volcano he had just created using "Meteor Volcano".

The volcano collapsed instantly, flattened by the powerful impact. The earth cracked and shattered, revealing a deep crater nearly 100 meters in diameter. Soil and dust from the crater surged into the sky like waves, creating a mushroom cloud.

The impact force carried by Akainu created a mushroom cloud and continued to spread to the rest of Ruschired Island.

The remains of the active volcano, the crater that was only a hundred meters deep just moments ago, are expanding outwards at an astonishing speed. Deep, knife-cut fissures have spread across the entire island in a short time, and even directly into the surrounding sea.

The seawater surrounding Ruschired Island was also shaken by this blow, creating towering waves.

Rumble--

The earth collapsed and mountains crumbled, the sea surged and roared, the force of which was earth-shattering.

The entire Ruschired Island was shattered by this attack, transforming from a small island into a fragmented and disintegrated archipelago.

Kizaru had just been "diligently" attacking the Clay Shield, also heard the earth-shattering explosion, and the rhythm of the "Yata no Kagami" attack came to an abrupt halt.

"This--"

Kizaru withdrew his golden light, looking down at the cracked and shattered Ruschired Island below, his eyes wide with utter shock.

This is absolutely terrifying!

This is the attack effect caused by that kid Storm —that guy—that monster?!

Sakazuki... he shouldn't be dead, right?

Just as Kizaru was about to rush towards the Riscipes Islands below, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He felt as if he were being watched by some prehistoric beast, and his [Observation Haki] kept sending him warnings.

Storm is keeping an eye on Kizaru.

He had just repelled Akainu, and he couldn't let this guy in the sky get away with it.

Storm did not stop releasing the power of the Clay- Clay Fruit; his Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki were still wrapped around his enormous right hand.

Immediately.

Storm waved his right hand toward the sky, and the enormous black hand, crackling with black and red arcs of electricity, blotted out the sky and possessed boundless power.

Kizaru's pupils dilated instantly.

But the "black hand" attacked with extreme speed.

Thump thump thump--

Storm's right palm was like a giant slap, striking the "light clones" of Kizaru in the sky like popping balloons, effortlessly wiping them all away.

As for Kizaru's true form, he seemed unable to react in time and was directly grasped in the palm of Storm's gigantic right hand, like a doll being held in a fist.

The only thing Kizaru seemed to realize was that he raised his hands.

Storm's giant hand, which simultaneously bound [Armament Haki] and [Conqueror's Haki], gripped Kizaru's body, but did not rush to attack.

Feeling the intense threat emanating from the giant hand, Kizaru raised his hands even higher.

"Storm..."

Kizaru raised his hands high, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Don't take it so seriously..."

"Snort!"

Storm snorted and exerted a little force with his right hand, causing Kizaru's body to make a series of "creaking" sounds, as if all the bones in his body were being squeezed.

Kizaru felt excruciating pain all over his body.

This moment.

Kizaru even immediately thought of asking Storm about his "white-haired form."

The next second.

Storm's right hand spun rapidly in the air, like a high-speed windmill, causing Kizaru in his palm to spin rapidly as well.

Kizaru felt a wave of dizziness.

However, he was held captive by Storm's "super black hand," and under the dual threat of [Armament Haki] and [Conqueror's Haki], he couldn't even use the [Glint-Glint Fruit] to escape.

Whoosh--

Storm hurled the Kizaru he was holding toward the Rischiled Islands below.

Kizaru's body flicked out a yellow beam of light in mid-air before he crashed into a fragment of Ruschired Island.

Boom--

Another deafening roar, capable of shattering clouds and splitting rocks, rang out.

Kizaru's body also smashed through that small piece of island debris.

But compared to Akainu.

Kizaru suffered much less damage.

He is Devil Fruit User of the [Glint-Glint Fruit].

As long as it's not thrown into the sea.

Crash into islands, smash into mountains, smash into the Marine Headquarters Building--

For Kizaru, an impact of this magnitude was essentially no different from a normal physical attack.

It's simply a matter of how dirty the clothes are...

Therefore, after the island fragments crashed into Ruschired Island, a golden light flashed again amidst the rising dust and smoke.

With slightly dirty clothes and blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Kizaru reappeared on the island.

The blood trickling from his mouth wasn't from the "impact," but from being "kneaded" by Storm.

Kizaru felt a stinging pain spreading throughout his body, and he felt utterly exhausted.

What made him even more exhausted was that he still hadn't seen Akainu.

Sakazuki... he can't just lose like this, can he?

Kizaru was unable to ascertain Akainu's condition.

But Storm has already confirmed Akainu's current situation.

[Moonlight Trophy: Akainu Sakazuki]

[Trophy Star Rating: ★★★★: ★★★★★★★★]

Previously, Storm had directly overwhelmed Beasts Kaido with a single "Peerless Conqueror's Fist".

Now, he can easily smash Akainu with one punch!

Storm descended from the sky, his eyes coldly fixed on Kizaru.

Kizaru raised his hands again.

"I give up~"

Second update.

There was still some in the early morning.
