A deep, powerful voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention.
Luffy?!
Sanji looked puzzled and said uncertainly.
"Knock knock!"
The drumbeats grew louder and louder, each one seemingly striking the hearts of everyone present.
In the end, it was even like thunder.
"Boom!"
An incredibly powerful burst of Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted from Luffy, who was lying on the ground, and swept outwards.
Black and red Inazuma flashed all around, emitting a terrifying light.
Meanwhile, Luffy, Luffy was lying down, also had a smile on his face. The next second, he did a somersault and jumped up.
"Ha... Ahahaha!"
Luffy let out bursts of laughter, and at the same time, puffs of white steam rose from his hair and clothes, turning into a liquid-like state.
"Hey! Kaido! What's wrong with Straw Hat Boy?"
The Big Mom came up to Kaido, poked him, and asked.
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"
Kaido replied curtly, then stared intently at Luffy, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice:
"Although I don't know exactly what changes have occurred in him, I feel he has become different!"
"Um?!"
Upon hearing this, the Big Mom couldn't help but roll her eyes at Kaido.
"You little rascal! Your words are truly invaluable!"
There's no need to waste your breath on all that nonsense you're spouting!
"Do you think I don't know he's changed? Do you think I'm blind?!"
The Big Mom launched into a tirade against Kaido, rattling off a string of insults.
On the other side, Sanji and Zoro looked at Luffy in bewilderment at his change.
This was the first time they had ever seen Luffy like this.
" Moss Head, what's wrong with Luffy...?"
Zoro:...
"No, how could you ask such a stupid question like that old woman? How would I know what's wrong with Luffy Big Mom?"
Zoro retorted to Sanji without holding back.
Seriously, do you think he even knows the answer to that question? Do you think he's that important?
However, before Zoro could say anything more, he suddenly sensed an extreme threat coming from a certain direction.
His expression changed instantly, and he immediately dodged to the side.
The next second, a massive wave of sword energy appeared where Zoro had just been standing.
The sword energy carved a deep trench in the ground, emanating a fierce aura.
Zoro turned his head sharply and was met with Big Mom whose hair stood on end, flames coiled around it and burned continuously, her eyes were bloodshot, and she exuded a terrifying aura.
Thump!
Thump!
The Big Mom's footsteps on the ground made a dull thud.
His gaze was fixed on Zoro not far away, and his voice was as chilling as winter ice.
What... did you just say?
"Old woman?"
"I'm still young and beautiful! Don't you have any taste?!"
The Big Mom roared and swung her Napoleon sword fiercely, sending another huge wave of sword energy shooting towards Zoro.
!!!
Zoro's pupils contracted, and he instantly transformed into his A-Shura Form, his nine swords moving simultaneously.
"Boom!"
Nine knives slashed down simultaneously, instantly turning the sword wave into mist.
But before Zoro could rest, he discovered that Big Mom had appeared in front of him at some point and was slashing at him with her sword again.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out as the Big Mom's blade slashed fiercely at Zoro's sword, which was held horizontally in front of him.
The powerful force sent Zoro flying instantly.
Seeing that Big Mom was about to continue attacking Zoro, Sanji, who was standing nearby, couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly attacked Big Mom.
They both knew that neither of them could handle the Big Mom alone.
Only by working together can they have even the slightest chance!
Meanwhile, Kaido, seeing Sanji and Zoro ganging up on Big Mom, showed no intention of helping them.
He believed the Big Mom could handle it!
And... now there's something even more intriguing!
"Hahaha... Hahaha..."
Kaido's gaze was fixed on Luffy, who was laughing incessantly and unleashing his Conqueror's Haki's Luffy.
He could sense Luffy's aura growing stronger, as if he were undergoing an astonishing transformation.
"Hahaha..."
Why? Why do I feel so happy for no reason? I was just defeated!
"But the joy inside me just kept coming! Hahaha..."
Luffy laughed loudly, while the white mist around his body rose even higher.
Gradually...
Luffy's clothes began to turn pure white, and his hair gradually turned pure white from the roots.
"Hahaha..."
The moment Luffy completely transformed into a pure white warrior, an incredibly powerful Conqueror's Haki emanated from him and spread outwards.
The surrounding ground cracked and crumbled, sending countless pieces of rock flying.
" Nika! Is she finally here?"
Xia Chen, looking up from the sky, smiled as he gazed at Luffy had transformed into Nika Form.
" Sun God Nika, the legendary warrior who symbolizes liberation and brings joy to people!"
Xia Chen whispered something.
Even though he himself had already transformed into Nika Form, Xia Chen still couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw Luffy transform into Nika.
After all, Luffy had been looking forward to it for a long time when he first transformed into Nika Form in his previous Luffy!
This feeling is completely different from the feeling he experienced when he transformed himself.
" Luffy, you've gotten to this point without me even realizing it!"
Looking at Luffy below, Xia Chen felt a sense of déjà vu, like an old father.
It's like watching your own child grow up step by step!
But actually, it's pretty much true; he did watch Luffy's strength leap forward time and time again.
Until now...
Luffy in his Nika Form has already acquired Yonko-level combat power!
Luffy's speed of strength improvement is many times greater than in the original story.
In the original Luffy set sail at the age of 17, Awakening his Nika Form at 19, and became Four Emperors!
Luffy has already Awakening his Nika Form at just 18 years old, more than a year earlier than in the original story.
To be fair, this speed of strength improvement is probably unmatched in the entire One Piece world, except perhaps by Xia Chen.
Thinking of this, Xia Chen couldn't help but smile again.
"That Kaido! The title of 'top teacher' is probably truly stuck to him!"
"In the original story, it took three blows for Luffy to Devil Fruit Awakening, but now it only took one!"
"One hit and you're Four Emperors!"
"The greatest teacher in the world of One Piece, without a doubt!"
"So..."
"How will this battle between teacher and disciple unfold next? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Xia Chen said in a low voice, his gaze falling on the two people facing off below...
