As Xia Chen finished speaking, a ball of black flame appeared out of thin air and enveloped him completely.
Gradually, Xia Chen's clothes began to turn black and appeared to have a flowing effect.
His golden pupils and black hair turned blood red in that instant.
Finally, as a black flame swirled behind Xia Chen Xia Chen, a powerful wave emanated from him and spread outwards in all directions.
Black and red Inazuma flashed continuously in the sky.
Its powerful force even uprooted the surrounding trees.
At this moment, Vivi and Luffy below were both blasted away by this force.
"What... what is this?" Vivi asked in terror, grabbing a rock.
" Xia Chen said it seems to be one of his forms!" Luffy said, scratching his head with the other hand while holding a rock in one hand.
At this moment, Vivi's awe of Xia Chen deepened even further. She had thought Xia Chen wasn't so terrifying based on their time together, but now, seeing Xia Chen Demonized Form...
Aww~ How scary!
This fluctuation affected not only Luffy and his Luffy, but also Brogy, Nami, and the others on the other side. However, they were no longer affected by the aura, but they were still able to detect such a large commotion.
Brogy's eyes narrowed.
"That direction is... Dorry!"
Without hesitation, Brogy picked up the axe beside him and charged in that direction.
Usopp and Nami, seeing this, did not hesitate and ran together towards the direction from which the commotion came.
Moreover, all the animals on the island sensed the commotion and scattered in panic.
Sanji and Zoro, who were somewhere nearby, were also heading towards this place.
Meanwhile, Dorry, who was facing Xia Chen Xia Chen directly, felt an immense sense of pressure!
"So, do I look the same as the person on the bounty poster now?" Xia Chen asked calmly.
Dorry did not answer, but looked at Xia Chen with a serious expression.
"Don't be so tense, relax!"
"Here, this is the wine I brought; it's absolutely safe!"
Xia Chen took out several barrels of wine he had brought from Whiskey Peak from his System Space and tossed them to Dorry.
During his few days at Whiskey Peak, he wasn't just focused on training Luffy.
In his spare time, he "borrowed" all the wine on the island. To put it bluntly, if you could find a single drop of wine in the entire Whiskey Peak when he left, he would be a loser!
Don't ask him why he's so confident; the answer is he used his Observation Haki to find him!
As for when to repay?
Let's talk about it after he travels around the world.
Dorry took the wine that Xia Chen tossed to him and opened the barrel without hesitation, pouring it into the wine bottle.
Judging from the aura that Xia Chen just unleashed, he was definitely no match for him. So, if Xia Chen really wanted to kill him, there was no need to stop him from drinking that barrel of explosive liquor.
Moreover, he had just recognized what was contained in the aura that Xia Chen was exuding.
Conqueror's Haki!
He believed that someone with the potential to be a king wouldn't resort to such underhanded tactics!
A few breaths later, Dorry had finished off several barrels of wine.
"Hahaha... That feels so good! It's been so long since I've had such delicious wine!"
Just as he was about to say something, a hurried voice came from behind him.
"Hey, Dorry, are you alright?"
When Dorry heard the voice, he turned around and saw Brogy running towards him while calling his name.
"Oh, Brogy, it's nothing, this guy just bought me some wine!"
Brogy, who arrived at that moment, was stunned by Dorry's words.
He first looked at Xia Chen and Dorry, then at the ruined land around him.
After a long pause, he finally managed to utter a sentence.
"You guys... have a rather unique way of offering drinks!"
"Well..."
Hearing this, Dorry felt a little embarrassed. He couldn't very well say that it was because he hadn't trusted Xia Chen that things had turned out this way, could he?
Wouldn't that make him seem a bit stupid?
No, no! Brogy absolutely cannot find out!
Thinking of this, Dorry immediately said, "Well, it's mainly because this young man wants to fight me, and his reward is these few barrels of liquor!"
Dorry had his reasons for saying that, because he could indeed sense fighting spirit from Xia Chen; he could tell that the other party wanted to fight him.
As a warrior of Elbaf, even knowing he was no match for his opponent, he could not back down from battle, for it was his honor as a warrior of Elbaf!
Xia Chen chuckled softly upon hearing Dorry's words. He still preferred Dorry's wise demeanor from earlier, but he didn't intend to contradict him. Instead, he went along with it, saying, "That's right, I do want to have a fight!"
"But not with him, but with both of you!"
"Hmm?" Brogy was momentarily puzzled upon hearing this.
"You said you want to fight both of us?"
"That's right, as payment, I'll give you a few more barrels of wine!"
"Kid, are you serious? The combined strength of the two of us isn't just one plus one!" Brogy stared at Xia Chen and said.
"Of course I'm serious!"
Xia Chen nodded, then suddenly raised his voice and shouted:
"I am Xia Chen!"
"I hereby issue a challenge to the two warriors of Elbaf, Dorry and Brogy!"
The moment Xia Chen finished speaking, Dorry and Brogy's eyes narrowed, and their expressions turned serious. Then they said in unison:
"I am Dorry!"
"I am Brogy!"
"I accept your challenge!!!"
After hearing the answer he wanted, Xia Chen smiled slightly.
For these two warriors who regard fighting as an honor, challenging them in their own way is undoubtedly the best approach.
"Well... I'm coming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Chen's figure vanished from the spot.
When Xia Chen reappeared, he was already in front of Dorry. He raised the stick in his hand and struck Dorry hard.
As a seasoned veteran, Dorry reacted the moment Xia Chen appeared, and also picked up his sword to meet Xia Chen.
The instant the sword and staff clashed, a powerful shockwave emanated from the center of their battle, once again scorching the surrounding land.
Moreover, although Xia Chen's physique is incomparable to Dorry's, Xia Chen is actually stronger in terms of strength.
Under Xia Chen's relentless pressure, Dorry's sword began to slowly bend.
Just then, a voice came from behind Xia Chen.
"Kid, don't forget I'm here..."
