On an uninhabited island, Edward Weevil brutally destroyed everything before his eyes.
The wounds on his body kept multiplying, and the pain nearly drove him mad.
"The experiment is complete. The development after Conqueror's Haki evolved has gone smoothly. It is time to end this battle."
Having tested two-thirds of his Conqueror's Haki reserves, Dawn intended to use the remaining third to swiftly end this utterly one-sided battle.
Simply put, Edward Weevil was nothing more than an exceptionally durable punching bag.
Even without comprehending the use of Conqueror's Haki, Dawn could have killed Edward Weevil after fighting for several days, relying on his monstrous stamina and recovery ability.
But now, it was even easier.
Oto left its sheath. The extreme speed of an Iaijutsu slash merged with the power of Conqueror's Haki, and the pitch-black blade split open Edward Weevil's chest as easily as cutting tofu, leaving behind a bone-deep wound.
"As expected, using a weapon seems sharper and more convenient."
Dawn coated Oto's blade with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki before slashing toward Edward Weevil's head. Under the powerful burst of force, Dawn's sword was so fast that the blade seemed to vanish as it flashed out.
Under the threat of death, a trace of savagery appeared on Edward Weevil's dull, foolish face. He directly raised his left hand to shield his head while recklessly swinging his naginata at Dawn.
"Trying to trade injuries and gamble your life?" Dawn curled his lips into a cold smile at that desperate fighting style. "Unfortunately, the gap between us is far too great!"
Oto swept across Edward Weevil's thick arm raised before him. Conqueror's Haki shattered the defense of Armament Haki, allowing the blade to hungrily tear through split flesh, sever bone, and ultimately cut the entire arm clean off.
Only then
