Streams of light formed from the dark red armor's energy spread around Dawn's body.
But don't mistake this for energy leaking out. On the contrary, it was the work of the God of Calamity.
Without a doubt, the God of Calamity was the name of the soul creation Dawn had made after devouring the Soul-Soul Fruit!
And the source of its awakening was the Blood Song Aura!
Since fire and lightning could both be awakened, Dawn simply gave the Blood Song Aura a soul.
Dawn had developed the Battle Song Aura into a passive aura and absorbed it directly, meaning it continuously strengthened him. In that sense, it was like being constantly "awakened."
The difference was that others affected the surrounding environment, while Dawn affected himself.
The Blood Song Aura, meanwhile, was more like a berserk aura, filled mostly with explosive, stimulating power. It could only be used temporarily. Absorbing it would be suicidal—after all, no one could withstand constantly erupting power.
Unable to absorb it, Dawn came up with the idea of shattering it and integrating it into his external armor for further amplification, thus developing the Power Armor.
After killing Charlotte Linlin, Dawn directly followed her methods and tinkered out Homies.
As for why those dark red streams of light were not energy leakage but the work of the God of Calamity, it was because, as a living being, he tightly locked all the energy outside Dawn's body.
The flow of that energy drew on the flowing techniques of Armament Haki, achieving complete defensive coverage.
In other words, although Dawn still had exposed weak points such as his face, once an attack came, the defense outside his body would form a "three-hundred-and-sixty-degree eggshell with no blind spots."
The dark red streams of light were not only the flow
