I Didn't Expect That to Work!

"What?"

"A meteor? How is that possible?"

King looked at the meteor falling from the sky, disbelief written all over his face.

However.

As he watched the meteor about to strike him.

King did not dare let his guard down. Facing such an enormous meteor, he decided to deactivate his Devil Fruit power first. With his current pteranodon body, there was basically no way he could withstand those meteors still wreathed in blazing flames.

In this situation, King could only grit his teeth and press on.

After all, if he
