"Hmph, it's just a mere fist imprint, yet you dare to spout such nonsense... Disperse, you bastard!!"
Seeing that Luo Chen had only used a probing attack and that the fist imprint did not have much power, Takurama felt insulted and shouted, agreeing to meet his attack with his own fist.
Thump...
Two fist imprints, one large and one small, intertwined, emitting a violent roar. The surrounding air was shaken and rippled by the Impact from their collision.
boom...
After colliding briefly, the two finally separated. The force of Luo Chen's punch was torn apart, and he was thrown back by the aftershock.
Hiss...
Luo Chen planted his feet firmly on the ground, leaving two deep marks before stopping.
"Hmm... As expected, a strength worth three hundred million is not to be underestimated; it's not even in the same league as Lucas."
Luo Chen's gaze also turned slightly serious as he looked at him and said.
Although he had only used a small trick to test Takurama's strength, he had still exerted half his effort. He hadn't expected that Taklamakan would be able to repel him, which made Luo Chen become more cautious.
Swoosh...
"A mere newbie dares to be so insolent in front of me... Die!!"
Just as Luo Chen stood still, Takurama his foot on the ground and appeared in front of Luo Chen with a whoosh. He shouted loudly, his right fist stained with ink, and slammed heavily towards him.
"Um..."
Luo Chen reacted instantly and simultaneously threw a left punch to meet the attack.
Bang...
Click click!!
boom...
Their fists collided again, and the ground beneath their feet cracked and sputtered as it could not withstand the powerful Impact. Moments later, a tremendous roar filled the air, and the two were thrown apart at the same time.
"Not bad, he's much stronger than Lucas, and he's even mastered Armament Haki..."
Luo Chen stood still, staring at him with a fighting spirit in his eyes.
"Hmph, I didn't expect someone from this weakling sea like you to know Armament Haki? Looks like you've got some skills to escape from Akainu!"
However, that's not enough. Kid, if you want to keep me here, you'll have to show me something else!
Swoosh...
" Wrathful God Battle Axe!!"
As he spoke, Takurama once again relied on his unparalleled speed to appear in front of him, raising his right foot straight up, like a Battle Axe that split the heavens and the earth, and slashing towards Luo Chen.
"Interesting... Blood Secret Art... Fist Aura Body Protection!!"
Facing the Battle Axe- like right leg that came crashing down on him, Luo Chen remained calm. He opened his mouth and spoke softly, and then a surge of blood-red energy enveloped his entire body.
Thump...
Takurama's Battle Axe whip kick sounded like it had struck a heavy bell, producing a deafening roar that sent shockwaves rippled outwards once more.
Thump...
Thump...
Thump...
Seeing that his attacks had failed, Takurama unleashed several more attacks in succession, but the powerful fist imprints and whip kicks that struck Luo Chen's Blood Breath bell-shaped surface still failed to cause the slightest damage.
Ripples spread across the bell's surface, followed by a series of tremendous roars, but Luo Chen, who was trapped inside the blood bell, remained unharmed.
"Damn it, it's like a tortoise shell! Luo Chen, are you even a man? If you're a man, take it off and fight me head-on! Don't cower in that shell!!"
After several attempts, realizing she couldn't break the eerie blood bell, Takurama resorted to verbal attacks, hoping to provoke him with words.
"Heh heh heh, how pathetic. You think you can force me to fight you head-on by arguing with me if you can't break through my defenses? I must say, Takurama, you've really disappointed me. I thought you were stronger than Lucas, but I didn't expect you to perform like this. It seems this Paradise has worn down your will to be a strongman?"
Fine, I'll grant your wish... I'll show you what true strength looks like.
Upon hearing his words, Luo Chen shook his head and withdrew his energy Blood Breath, completely exposing himself to him without any defenses.
"Hehehe, what did you say? You're saying this Paradise has worn down my fighting spirit? Hahaha, kid, let me show you the perfect power bestowed upon me by Lord Carlos..."
Hearing Luo Chen's words, Takurama instantly calmed down, and then a chilling aura emanated from her as she spoke.
Thump...
Thump...
Thump...
After saying this, accompanied by several heart-pounding sounds, Takurama's body suddenly underwent a dramatic change.
Click click!!
Then, his bones cracked and popped, and his body suddenly grew several meters taller, eventually becoming a monster six or seven meters tall, covered in scales, with its arms transformed into wolf heads.
"Hehehe... How about it? Do you feel fear and awe upon seeing my divine glory?! But no matter what you say now, I won't let you go. Let me use this perfect energy to send you down to hell to repent... Wolf Fang... Violent Devour!!"
After saying that, his two fists, which had transformed into wolf heads, attacked him at Extreme Speed, and the sound of air being torn apart could be faintly heard in the air.
"Hmm... what is this?!"
boom...
Luo Chen was stunned when he saw the wolf heads that appeared from his fists, and then he was sent flying before he could react.
Bang...
"Ahem... that's... if I'm not mistaken, it should be Artificial Devil Fruit. I never imagined you could obtain such power like that, it's truly unbelievable!!"
Luo Chen quickly emerged from the pile of dirt, coughed a few times to expel the dust from his lungs, and then looked solemnly at Takurama, who had transformed into the monster before him, and began to speak.
"Hmm?! I didn't expect you to know this. Not bad, this is a perfect Devil Fruit ability created by JOKER, the overlord of the dark world... It's the perfect successor to the wolf-snake-pancake ability, the strongest Zoan ability..."
Upon seeing that Luo Chen could directly state the origin of his ability, Takurama no longer concealed himself and boasted to him with the monster's face.
"The strongest Zoan? That's laughable. Even Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, wouldn't dare claim his ability is the strongest Zoan. This Artificial Devil Fruit dares to boast like that? Let me show you what true strength really is!!"
Ability Unleashed... Asura Form!!
Luo Chen spoke disdainfully to the arrogant Takurama before him, and then released his long-suppressed power.
A moment later, a blood-red war god, Shura, appeared before everyone. The chilling killing intent emanating from him made everyone tremble violently, and they looked at the terrifying figure that had appeared on the battlefield with some fear.
"Hehehe, you're a Devil Fruit user too? And the rarest Mythical Zoan at that! Looks like a Shura! This is so exciting! Let me test what this so-called strongest Zoan Devil Fruit is all about... Desolate Wolf... Wolf Roar Cannon!!"
Whether it was the change in personality brought about by that strange ability or not, upon seeing Luo Chen transform into a terrifying figure, Takurama showed no fear whatsoever; instead, her eyes gleamed with fighting spirit.
The wolf heads on its hands suddenly opened their mouths wide and inhaled sharply, their mouths bulging. Then, it compressed the air it swallowed into an air cannon and shot it straight out.
