In no time, Jack transformed into the human-beast form of the Mammoth Fruit.
Facing an opponent who possesses the ability to Future Sight Observation Haki, being large simply makes you a sitting duck.
However, he's not exactly small now.
Jack gripped his scythe tightly, and Haki immediately enveloped him.
The dark luster on the blade gleamed with a chilling light.
Then, his figure shot out instantly, Luffy towards Luffy.
As it reached Luffy, it slashed fiercely at him.
The blade contained terrifying power, as if the air itself was about to be torn apart.
But Luffy simply shifted his body slightly to the side, easily dodging the attack.
Then, with a light leap, he landed on Jack's chest.
A punch, imbued with Armament Haki, slammed towards Jack.
"Bang!"
A dull thud followed, and a punch landed squarely on Jack's chest.
It looked like a light punch, but in that instant, it unleashed an incredibly terrifying power.
"Whoosh!"
Jack's body was sent flying backwards instantly, the powerful force carrying his massive frame as he swept through the air.
"Pfft!"
A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.
"Boom!"
After flying for an unknown amount of time, Jack's body finally landed on the ground, creating a large crater.
"Phew~"
"Phew~"
Lying in the pit, Jack gasped for breath.
At that moment, he felt as if his chest was about to explode, and the intense pain caused him to break out in a cold sweat.
"Cough cough!"
Jack coughed a few times, then spat out another mouthful of blood.
Struggling to his feet, Jack looked at Luffy slowly Luffy towards him in the distance, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
He hadn't expected Luffy to have such strength; one punch had seriously injured him.
Given his opponent's Observation Haki, which had already reached the Future Sight, Jack didn't think he had a chance of winning.
" Straw Hat Boy..."
Jack murmured to himself, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.
The next moment, a flash of inspiration struck him, and a sharp glint appeared in his eyes.
Got it!
The next moment, to Luffy's utter bewilderment, Jack fell backward, his massive body crashing to the ground and kicking up clouds of dust.
Jack's eyes were tightly closed, as if he had already been defeated.
Anyway, he knew why these people were here.
It's not like we're really going to fight the Straw Hat Pirates to the death!
He did indeed do as Xia Chen said and did not hold back against Luffy.
But the question is, should he hold back?
Didn't you see he's been beaten like a dog?
Luffy is more likely to hold back against him.
He may have been incredibly arrogant before, but after the battle between Xia Chen and Kaido, he has toned down his arrogance.
Therefore, he felt no shame or denial about being no match for Luffy.
Since we can't beat them... why not just play dead?
Otherwise, I'll suffer some physical pain!
Luffy was completely bewildered, because he could clearly sense that although Jack's aura had weakened somewhat, it was still far from being defeated.
But Jack's current behavior left him completely bewildered.
What does this mean?
Are you not playing anymore?
After thinking for a while, Luffy still couldn't come up with a solution.
But since Jack had already put on this act, he felt obliged to cooperate.
Luffy looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through the walls and reaching the dome above.
He could sense two powerful auras there, far surpassing those of the others present.
Moreover, he found one of the auras somewhat familiar.
After thinking for a while, Luffy finally remembered who the owner of this aura was, and his expression became serious.
" Big Mom..."
Why are Big Mom here too?
Luffy narrowed his eyes, somewhat unable to understand.
But Luffy quickly stopped worrying about it; for him, it was better not to think about things he couldn't understand.
Just go for it!
With this in mind, Luffy slowly placed his right hand horizontally in front of him, Armament Haki enveloped it.
Then he took a bite!
Gear Fourth!
A plume of steam emanated from Luffy and then flew directly upwards towards the dome.
He had no intention of slowly walking up the castle; wouldn't it be better to just fly up?
Then Luffy turned around and looked at Zoro and the others, saying, "Everyone, I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going up now!"
"Understood, Captain!"
A smile appeared on everyone's lips.
They were used to Luffy's actions; they would find it strange if he didn't do it this way.
Hey! Birdman!
"Our captain has already gone aboard, I can't delay any longer!"
"Your defense is strong, huh? Then let me see if you can withstand this attack!"
Having said that, Zoro held the two swords in front of him and then exhaled deeply.
"Phew~"
"Um?!"
King, standing opposite Zoro, narrowed his eyes. He suddenly sensed that Zoro's aura had changed.
"Looks like this is going to be a very powerful blow!"
Jin murmured something under his breath, then transformed back into human form from his Pteranodon Form.
He held the long sword in front of him, and flames rose from the wings behind him, incredibly intense.
His eyes were fixed on Zoro opposite him, not daring to relax for a moment.
At this moment, a phantom black aura began to rise from Zoro's body, resembling the ghostly energy of the underworld.
Black energy continuously emanated from Zoro's body, eventually forming an illusory form.
Two heads, six hands, and six swords appeared beside Zoro.
"Demon Aura: Nine-Sword Style!"
Zoro said something casually.
Then his figure shot out instantly, at an incredibly fast speed.
"!!!"
"How could it be so fast?"
Jin's pupils contracted; in that instant, Zoro's burst of speed even surpassed his.
This was something he found difficult to understand.
Thanks to his racial advantages, he was incredibly fast. Few people could match his speed.
Jin raised the sword in his hand high, and Armament Haki enveloped it.
Be prepared to counter Zoro's attack at any moment.
But the next moment, his pupils contracted sharply again.
This was Zoro's already incredibly fast speed increased even further when he arrived in front of him.
In the blink of an eye, they were in front of him.
In the blink of an eye, the two figures passed each other.
Both of them remained in their original positions without changing at all.
The flames behind the embers continued to rise, showing no sign of abating.
"Ghostly Aura - Nine-Sword Style - A-Shura - Sword Draw - Play of the Dead!"
Zoro pronounced each word carefully.
The great poet of the One Piece world is back online!
Just as Zoro finished speaking, a huge gash tore open in King's chest.
"Pfft!"
The sound of flesh being torn apart rang out, and a stream of blood splattered out.
"How... how is this possible?"
"Jin said incredulously, his tone filled with utter horror."
