Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

Everyone gasped in awe.

Was this the full strength of the Dragon-Human Form, the strongest creature across land, sea, and air?

With just one move, he had caused the earth to quake and the mountains to tremble!

It was simply terrifying beyond measure!

As the thick smoke gradually dispersed,

the abyss-like crater came fully into view.

However,

no one could find any trace of Roya. Only Kaido stood at its edge.

"Looks like it's over. The strongest creature across land, sea, and air truly lives up to his name." Shichibukai Empress Hancock frowned tightly.

"What a pity. He was such a promising Marine." Even Hawkeye Mihawk sighed and shook his head.

Only Blackbeard Teach kept his teeth clenched as he said, "Hmph, don't underestimate that brat Roya!"

Blackbeard Teach had personally experienced Roya's immense power.

Combined with Roya's performance just now, Blackbeard Teach had concluded that when Roya defeated him, he had likely used only a portion of his strength.

"Hahahahaha!"

"I told you, this world doesn't need so many kings!"

Kaido threw back his head and laughed, as though proclaiming his victory.

"Kaido!"

"I'll kill you!"

Garp clenched his fists furiously. After all, Roya was practically half his disciple, and Garp had agreed to let him fight Kaido. At this moment, Garp felt a faint sense of guilt.

"Wait!"

Just as Garp was about to make a move, Fleet Admiral Sengoku stopped him. "Garp, look. Roya seems to be fine!"

While everyone was still talking amongst themselves,

a pair of hands emerged from the edge of the abyss-like crater.

That was right—it was Roya!

The next second, Roya pushed himself up and soared into the air. After landing perfectly, everyone could clearly see that aside from his damaged clothes, he had almost no visible injuries.

"What?! He's actually fine!"

"How is that possible? With such a ferocious attack, even the Three Admirals working together might not have escaped unscathed!"

"Even Vice Admiral Garp and Fleet Admiral Sengoku couldn't possibly take that blow head-on and come out completely unharmed, right?"

Countless Vice Admirals and elite Marines stared with their mouths hanging open in shock.

Even Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Shichibukai who had not spoken from beginning to end, opened his mouth. "Is this guy a monster?"

And in Bartholomew Kuma's heart, another thought arose: Looks like I need to tell Dragon about this guy.

"This brat really has some skill!" Garp laughed as well.

"How is this possible? How are you still able to stand?" Kaido was completely dumbfounded as he looked at the unscathed Roya.

He had clearly been extremely confident in his ultimate move. Over all these years, there were only a handful of people who could withstand it, and even peak-level experts could not possibly emerge unscathed after facing that attack.

Thus, Kaido's face was filled with disbelief.

"Kaido!"

"Is that all the strength you have?"

"I don't think it's much!"

Roya reached out and dusted himself off, looking at Kaido with disdain. His words were filled with endless provocation.

In truth,

Roya had indeed felt just how terrifying Kaido's strength was.

But the reason Roya could still provoke him so arrogantly was that he had already come up with a countermeasure.

Kaido, known as the strongest creature across land, sea, and air, undoubtedly possessed incredible defense. Roya did not deny that.

Therefore, if he truly wanted to defeat Kaido, relying solely on Haki, the Venom-Venom Fruit, or even the Dark-Dark Fruit would not be enough.

Therefore!

Roya had decided to take this opportunity to properly test the power of the Tenseigan!

"Roya!"

Enraged, Kaido roared again, then swung his spiked club and launched another attack.

Facing Kaido's attack, Roya did not panic. He slowly closed his eyes and used Observation Haki to skillfully evade Kaido's strikes.

Then,

Roya suddenly opened his eyes. His originally black pupils had turned into the Blue Tenseigan!

Immediately afterward,

green energy erupted from Roya's body, enveloping him completely. Even when Kaido's spiked club, coated in Conqueror's Haki, struck Roya, he did not budge in the slightest.

This was the Tenseigan Chakra Mode!

Immediately afterward,

Roya began his counterattack.

Roya spread his hands and released gravitational force. All the shattered stones in Marineford Plaza floated into the air, then rapidly smashed down toward Kaido.

"What?"

"What kind of power is this?"

Kaido froze for a moment before retreating again and again. In the end, however, he was buried beneath the rubble.

"Is Roya a Devil Fruit user?" Fleet Admiral Sengoku asked.

"He shouldn't be, logically speaking!" Garp shook his head.

After all, Garp had taught Roya the basics of Haki for several months. He truly had not known that Roya possessed such an ability.

Of course,

this level of attack naturally could not cause Kaido any substantial harm.

Boom!

Kaido, buried beneath the rubble, erupted with power again and blasted every stone away. His massive Dragon-Human Form reappeared before everyone.

But before Kaido could fly into another rage, the spectators cried out once more.

"Th-this... what is this..."

"What terrifying power!"

"..."

Countless Marines continued to exclaim in shock.

Hawkeye Mihawk stared at the scene before him with a deep frown, stunned for a moment before saying meaningfully, "A slash?"

Kaido also grew curious and looked up. Above his head, a dazzling radiance had appeared, shining down upon him like the blazing sun. The light was shaped like a massive sword.

And the one controlling that gigantic sword of dazzling light was Roya!

"Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"

It was a Tenseigan technique—Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!

Without the slightest hesitation, Roya shouted, and the giant sword slashed down at Kaido.

The entire scene seemed to shake heaven and earth; even the sky trembled along with it.

"What?!"

"This power!"

Kaido's eyes widened. This time, he had deeply felt the threat.

Kaido knew very well that he absolutely could not take it head-on, so he had to evade!

Unfortunately!

Besides its immense power, the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion was incredibly fast. Before Kaido could dodge, the giant sword had already come down.

Rumble!

With a deafening boom!

Marineford was split directly into two halves!
