On the other side, on the huge island next to Elegia.
"Boom!"
Powerful shockwaves erupted from the island, spreading outwards.
" King Kong Gun!"
Luffy instantly appeared in front of Red Hair and threw a powerful punch at him.
But Red Hair didn't flinch at all when faced with this powerful punch; instead, a smile appeared on his lips.
He held the Gryphon horizontally in front of him, Armament Haki enveloped it.
"Bang!"
A dull thud was heard, and the Red Hair's body sank slightly, but he didn't move an inch.
Red Hair didn't immediately look at Luffy in front of him, but instead glanced at the ground beneath his feet and couldn't help but sigh:
"Although I've been fighting here for a while, I'm still not quite used to such hard ground!"
The Red Hair's tone was filled with admiration.
Although he could easily withstand Luffy's punch, such a powerful force would have caused the ground beneath his feet to cave in if it were on ordinary ground.
It was here that even the scraps weren't broken up much.
After fighting for so long, their various techniques have only managed to cause a tiny bit of damage to the island.
The damage caused on an ordinary island would be more than ten times that on this island.
Then Red Hair turned his gaze to Luffy and said with a faint smile:
" Luffy, what's wrong? Is this all you've got?"
"I admit you're quite strong in this form, but thinking you can defeat me is just wishful thinking!"
"Come, let me witness the power of the Sun God Nika!"
The Red Hair's eyes revealed anticipation and excitement.
"Um?!"
How do you know the name of my fruit?
Luffy's eyes widened, and he asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, the Red Hair couldn't help but murmur softly, saying:
" Luffy, have you forgotten who you ate this fruit from?"
"You threw a tantrum and ate the fruit I went through so much trouble to get! You know, this fruit was originally meant for me!"
The Red Hair said calmly.
"You're kidding me, Shanks! Don't think I don't know you've never had any intention of eating Devil Fruit!"
"Otherwise you would have eaten it already, and not just you, Uncle Beckman and the others did too, right?"
"Wow! That's surprising, Luffy, I didn't fool you!"
A hint of surprise appeared on the Red Hair's face.
"You used to be so easy to fool when you were little, how come you've suddenly become so smart?"
"ε=(´ο`*))) Sigh! The Luffy from when he was a kid was much more interesting!"
Who are you calling stupid?!
Luffy and unleashed a powerful burst of energy, instantly blasting Red Hair away.
Red Hair ' feet dragged along the ground for a short distance. When he looked up again, he saw Luffy had returned to his original form and was looking at him with a light smile.
" Shanks, since you want to see it, then I'll show you!"
After saying that, Luffy slowly closed his eyes, clenched his fists at his chest, and then exhaled deeply.
"Phew~"
Luffy became absorbed in his thoughts, as if he had entered a dark and mysterious space.
The next moment--
A sliver of light appeared in the space, and the sound of war drums began to resound.
As the drumbeats grew louder, the space became brighter.
"They're here! They're here!"
Luffy suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly.
Then his body began to move, and countless white wisps of smoke Luffy, turning his clothes and hair white.
Before long, Luffy transformed into Nika Form, the Pure White Warrior!
"Hahaha..."
Luffy laughed loudly, and an incredibly powerful Conqueror's Haki emanated from him and spread outwards.
Countless black and red Inazuma flashed all around.
This imposing aura drew the attention of everyone else on the battlefield.
Ben Beckman stared at Luffy in his Nika Form, a look of surprise on his face.
"Is that... Sun God Nika?"
"This aura... Luffy really seems to have grown up!"
Beckman smiled slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
Seeing Luffy's current strength, he was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart.
After all, Luffy is like their child to them.
What elder wouldn't be happy to see their child achieve something?
Not only Beckman, but the rest of the Red Hair Pirates also showed the same expression after seeing Luffy in this form.
"That crybaby from back then has grown into Four Emperors just like the boss!"
Lucky Roux took a bite of the meat in his hand, looked at Luffy, and said softly.
"Yes! I'm very gratified to see Luffy grow up to where he is today!"
A faint male voice echoed the same sentiment.
Lachi Rue:...
Lucky Roux turned around and looked at Sanji smoking not far away, a few question marks appearing on his mind.
"Kid! It's normal for me to sigh a little, because I really watched Luffy grow up. What are you sighing about? You're not that much older than Luffy, are you?"
"Does one have to be old to have such feelings?"
Sanji asked calmly in return.
"Just tell me, didn't I watch his strength increase step by step?"
What you're saying... does make sense!
Lucky Roux took another bite of the meat in his hand and said thoughtfully.
Then, turning his gaze to Sanji, he said:
"Kid! Your cooking yesterday was pretty good! Looks like Luffy has found a great chef!"
"Your cooking skills are alright, but they're definitely not quite as good as mine!"
Sanji replied calmly.
"Oh my! You think you're so great just because I praised you a couple of times?"
"You actually say my cooking skills are inferior to yours?"
"I'm angry! I'm going to teach you a lesson, you arrogant brat!"
After saying that, Lucky Roux ate the rest of the meat in his hand in one bite, and then his figure instantly darted out, arriving in front of Sanji in the blink of an eye, and punched Sanji hard.
Sanji narrowed his eyes, then pushed off the ground with both legs, retreating a short distance.
Lucky Roux's fist struck the spot where Sanji had been standing, and the air exploded with a loud bang.
Sanji stared intently at Lucky Roux in front of him.
He really couldn't understand why Lackey Rookie, who was so fat, could be so fast and have such heavy punches.
But... he didn't believe he was weaker than his opponent!
Sanji instantly spun around in place, his right foot turning bright red, and kicked towards Lucky Roux.
On the other side, Red Hair looked at Luffy laughing uncontrollably, and couldn't help but sigh.
Although he had seen Luffy's Nika Form on the bounty poster, the difference between it and what he saw in reality was still too great.
After a while, seeing Luffy still laughing, Red Hair couldn't help but say:
" Luffy, are you still going to fight? You've been laughing the whole time, how can you fight?"
"Hahaha..."
"Certainly..."
"Can!"
When Luffy said the first sentence, he was still in the same spot, but after saying the second sentence, he appeared in front of Red Hair and threw a punch at him.
Red Hair:!!!
