Wasn't Totto Land just a playground to rampage through?
Storm rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and headed with Ikko to the sea of clouds ten thousand meters above the sky.
Even a mere "sparring" between the two of them could cause terrifying destruction to the surrounding environment.
For the sake of Gran Tesoro, Storm very "thoughtfully" chose the battleground at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
Under Storm's control, the power of the Clay- Clay Fruit surged forth, causing the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's size to expand.
Upon successfully reaching the sea of clouds ten thousand meters above the ground, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon had swelled to a size approaching that of Gran Tesoro. The enormous White Dragon soared through the sky like a floating Sky Island.
With a smile, Observation Haki clearly sensed the change in the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's size, and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
'White Dragon's Devil Fruit ability has been developed to an extremely high level!'
In the previous battle, Ikko did not have a deep understanding of Storm's [Clay Fruit] ability.
After all, Storm didn't need to use the [Clay Fruit] to fight him.
A "blind man" who relies almost entirely on his [Observation Haki] for combat is taught a lesson with just one "Observation Kill"!
At this moment, Yixiao sensed the change in the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's size and immediately realized that the White Dragon's level of Devil Fruit development was probably no less than that of his [Haki]...
With a smile, he suppressed his distracting thoughts, activated his Observation Haki, locked onto Storm opposite him, and suddenly drew his Supreme Grade Sword, Black Road Fire Wire.
A series of deep purple halos burst forth from Yi Xiao's [Black Road Fire Wire], shooting directly into the sky of the New World and even flying beyond the planet.
In no time at all.
A halo of orange-red light suddenly appeared above the azure sky.
A massive, rough meteorite, engulfed in raging flames, descended from the heavens with unparalleled power!
"Meteor!"
Under Yi Xiao's meticulous control, the meteorite from outer space locked onto Storm's location, seemingly about to smash him and the Blue-Eyes White Dragon below into the vast ocean.
"Not bad at all!"
Storm looked up at the fiery meteorite in the sky, a sense of anticipation rising in his eyes.
Why didn't you use this trick before?
Before Yixiao could answer, Storm leaped into the air, channeling all his power into his right arm, where a dark-colored [Armament Haki] enveloped his fist.
Storm swung his right fist toward the meteorite above his head, his posture resembling a firestorm, and the iron fist, wrapped in [Armament Haki], struck the meteorite with unparalleled power.
Boom--
It was accompanied by a deafening roar.
The giant meteorite that Ikko pulled down from outer space using the [D Denk-Denk Fruit] was smashed to pieces by Storm's punch, just like a sandbag!
The giant meteorite, like an egg that had been smashed into a rock, split and disintegrated on the spot. Small fragments scattered like petals falling from the sky, landing on the massive body of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon without causing any further damage.
A few scattered meteorite fragments flew off the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's body and fell into the sea below, but they caused no serious harm.
"That was awesome!"
Storm exhaled a breath of stale air, his eyes shining as he looked at a smile not far away.
"Again! Again!"
Yi Xiao sensed that Storm had shattered the extraterrestrial meteorite with a single punch and fell silent for a moment.
He probably, perhaps, it seems, maybe... underestimated the White Dragon's pure power level?
Time flies, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.
In these two days.
Storm constantly sought out a "sparring match," Hundred Plans meteorites exploding from outer space every day.
The meteorite fragments blasted apart by his iron fists were enough to pile up into a small island in the sky.
Storm did not "waste" these stones, but temporarily incorporated them into the body of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, causing the already enormous Blue-Eyes White Dragon's body to expand and grow even larger, surpassing Gran Tesoro in the sea below.
With the help of Yixiao's sparring partner and the corpses of countless meteorites.
Storm has fully mastered his [Strength] attribute, which has been upgraded to Nine-Star, and has become more proficient and adept at using [Armament Haki].
Storm had a great time.
Yi Xiao, however, had gotten numb.
After these two days of "exchange".
Yixiao had already deeply grasped Storm's level of strength.
It's no exaggeration to say that...
From Yixiao's perspective now.
Even without using his special technique called "Observation Kill," Storm was no match for him.
Whether it's strength or Haki.
Even a smile can't compare to Storm's.
He had initially thought that the previous battle was won by White Dragon through a sneak attack, lacking martial ethics.
But now it seems that White Dragon actually showed mercy back then...
It was afternoon that day.
Storm and Ichisho left the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, which was ten thousand meters above the ground, and returned to Gran Tesoro on the sea.
Tesoro rushed over upon hearing the news, bringing several pieces of information.
"Lord White Dragon"
Tesoro stood respectfully before Storm and gave a serious report.
"We have one day left of our journey to Whole Cake Island. At the latest, we should be able to reach the waters near Whole Cake Island by tomorrow afternoon."
Because the Gran Tesoro's hull was so enormous, it was practically a giant island floating on the sea.
Whole Cake Island is a unique archipelago dotted with islands of all sizes.
Gran Tesoro has no way to travel through the islands located in the outer seas of Whole Cake Island to reach the heart of Totto Land — Cake Island.
Therefore, when they are about to arrive in the waters near Whole Cake Island, Tesoro will change ships and land on the island.
Tesoro had already reported this matter to Storm.
"Okay, I understand."
Storm nodded slightly.
He recalled the information he had previously browsed regarding the BIG MOM Pirates.
The Devil Fruit he had his eye on were mostly owned by people on Cake Island.
Certainly.
Cake Island isn't just home to Devil Fruit User; it also holds other "treasures."
For example, the Red Poneglyph that belonged to the Rocks Pirates but was later forcibly taken away by Big Mom!
Storm was originally uninterested in the so-called "Laugh Tale".
It's not because of that sentence...
A sign stood at the entrance to Raftel: No entry Devil Fruit User who is not a [Zoan Human- Human-Human Fruit Mythical Zoan Nika Model].
It was simply because Storm wasn't interested in the so-called "past" contained within Raftel.
A loser from eight hundred years ago has, in a twist of fate, become the savior eight hundred years later...
This sounds absurd.
If a savior could truly save the world, why didn't he simply save the world eight hundred years ago?
Storm couldn't understand it and was deeply shocked.
But now.
Storm changed his mind.
He still wasn't very interested in the Laugh Tale Raftel.
Even according to Vegapunk's description, whoever reaches the Laugh Tale, Raftel, and obtains "that thing" will simultaneously control the fate of the world.
Storm remained skeptical of this claim.
The reason is simple.
If you reach Raftel, you can control the fate of the world.
So why did Roger Pirates disband back then?
Going back even further.
Why did Joy Boy fail 800 years ago?
The Three Ancient Weapons.
[Uranus, the Uranus] is in the hands of the World Government;
[Poseidon] is on Fish-Man Island;
[Pluton, the Pluton] is in Wano Country.
Could a "super- Ancient Weapon" that surpasses the Three Ancient Weapons emerge on the Laugh Tale Raftel?
All in all.
Storm has little interest in Raftel.
But if given the chance, he still wanted to see what was inside Raftel...
If possible, obtain the Road Poneglyph.
Storm won't miss out either.
"After arriving in Whole Cake Island tomorrow, Mr. Yixiao and I will travel together. As for you..."
Storm sized up Tesoro and said casually.
"You'll be in charge of cleaning up the battlefield! I'll tell you about some key targets later."
Storm's attack on the BIG MOM Pirates didn't require a complicated plan to begin with.
Just like Capone Bege, one of the future Worst Generation Supernovas, who came up with a whole bunch of fancy plans to fight Charlotte Linlin, but ended up not making any progress at all...
According to Storm...
Friendly forces: He and Yixiao.
Enemy forces: Charlotte Linlin and her henchmen.
Is there even a need to make a plan?
Whole Cake Island, the headquarters of the BIG MOM Pirates...
Wasn't that a playground where Storm and Yixiao could wade around at will?
As for Tesoro...
The Gild Tesoro's strength is quite good.
In Storm's view, Tesoro's overall strength is roughly on par with Charlotte Katakuri, the Charlotte Family's greatest masterpiece.
The main difference between the two lies in their [Haki].
Katakuri is proficient in all Three Types of Haki, especially Observation Haki.
But Tesoro...
Storm has not yet seen Tesoro use [Haki].
But he never intended for Tesoro to deal with Charlotte Katakuri.
That's a job that only makes you laugh!
After hearing Storm's words, Tesoro inexplicably felt that his strength had been underestimated by the other party.
He originally wanted to argue a bit, to say something "correct" like "I'm willing to go through fire and water for Lord White Dragon."
Tesoro looked at Storm, then smiled.
The Gild Tesoro truly couldn't bring himself to say, "My strength is also quite formidable."
Those two monsters!
"I see."
Tesoro obediently took on the task of counting the spoils.
It's like finding money!
He loves doing this job!
"Lord White Dragon, there is another piece of news I need to report to you."
Tesoro considered for a moment, then spoke softly.
"As far as I know, several Dark World Kings are also about to arrive in Whole Cake Island."
Second update.
It wasn't midnight, it was early morning...
Okay, goodnight everyone.
Two updates today.
