"Really? Even you're so curious about my abilities... Alright then, I'll fully demonstrate my power and show you what a ' Shura ' truly is..."

Upon hearing that Kizaru was not going to intervene but instead wanted him to continue attacking the Straw Hat Pirates, Luo Chen only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. His aura slowly rose, and Blood Breath surged from his body, gradually eroding and staining the ground red, turning it into a battlefield of Shura.

"Heh, so this is Shura? Interesting. That overwhelming killing intent is practically solidifying. If an ordinary person faced him, they probably wouldn't even be able to stand up!"

Sentomaru..."

Kizaru stood beside him, carefully sensing the power Luo Chen was exuding. He was also shocked. He had thought that the strongest Zoan was nothing compared to his Glint-Glint Fruit, but now, even he, who was one of the strongest beings on the sea, was affected by this killing intent. This shocked Kizaru, so he called out to his subordinate Sentomaru.

brush...

"Huh?! What's wrong, Uncle Kizaru? Is there something important you need me for? If not, then I need to continue attacking them!!"

Startled by Kizaru's shout, Sentomaru's large, fan-like hand stopped in front of Franky, about to strike him. Disrupted by the sudden shout, Franky, even as a subordinate, couldn't help but ask loudly.

"Okay, don't interfere anymore. Just leave the Straw Hat Pirates to Luo Chen, and we can just watch them fight..."

Kizaru said leisurely, putting his hands behind his chest, ready to sit back and watch their battle.

"Yes..."

Seeing that his superior Kizaru had given the order, how could Sentomaru not give up? He withdrew his hand and stepped aside, just like Kizaru, crossing his arms and not intending to get involved.

" Luffy, you've all seen it. Now I'm going to use my full power against you. Don't hold back, or you'll be killed and that's not my fault! Asura Form... Unleash!!"

After saying that, the Blood Breath beneath Luo Chen's feet surged once again, completely shrouding his body. A moment later, with a loud boom, the Blood Breath that had been blocking Luo Chen's front like a waterfall flowing backward was parted by a pair of blood-red hands and scattered in all directions, revealing a tall and terrifying demonic figure to everyone.

"Uh... is this the ability he's been hiding from us all this time?"

Luffy and the others stared in shock at the incredibly powerful demon god before them, whose aura was filled with overwhelming killing intent.

"This, this is... I think I've seen it in some book. When it manifests, it's like a war god descending, a blood-red killing intent coalescing into form, its aura overwhelming. This is the Zoan ability that was said to be invincible eight hundred years ago... the Human-Human Fruit, Asura Form! I never expected it to be this! This man has truly obtained an incredible ability!!"

Robin, who was not far away, was immediately astonished when she saw the form that Luo Chen displayed. She recalled a rare book she had seen in the largest library in the world of Ohara when she was a child. It contained a few words about Luo Chen's fruit and a picture of the Shura Complete Form. She recognized his ability immediately and said.

"Hehe, I never expected you to be so knowledgeable, Miss Robin. Since you've already figured it out, let me explain. Yes, this is an ability I obtained on the Sky Island Birka, but very few people have ever witnessed it. Now that it's unleashed, enjoy it to the fullest, experience a battle with me... Shura: Demonic Shadow Clone!!"

After saying that, several figures identical to him emerged from Luo Chen's body again. These were clones he created using his abilities, which he had trained on the Sky Island. They were capable of multitasking, and he could control one clone by projecting one of his consciousness into it.

"Eh... it's me again, all alone. Luffy, what are we Luffy to do? Do we really have to fight someone like this?"

Although Usopp didn't stand up to fight alongside them, he felt Despair after witnessing this scene, even though he was powerless to participate in the battle. One Luo Chen was enough to hold back and suppress the three leaders of their pirate crew. What would happen if another one came? The outcome was obvious.

"Hmph, shut your mouth, Usopp! Even if we do nothing, we can't get rid of them, not to mention there's an Admiral lurking nearby. Fighting is our best option. If you're not going to join the battle, then shut your mouth and watch how we respond!"

Zoro placed his beloved sword Wado Ichimonji, in his mouth, clenching his teeth, and said to him.

"Yes, I understand, I won't interrupt again..."

After being reprimanded by Zoro, Usopp wisely shut his mouth. Although he was sweating profusely and very worried about them, he decided to lie there like a wooden statue and remain silent.

"Heh, you want to fight to the death? Fine, then I'll test whether you have the strength to fight me..."

call out...

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Chen's feet surged with Blood Breath, propelling him forward at lightning Extreme Speed as if he were surfing on a wave.

" Rankyaku Secret Technique... Blood Tempest Blade!!"

As he spoke, Luo Chen had already rushed to Zoro's side, raising his blood-red right leg, which was covered in scales, and hooking a blade of energy that merged with his Blood Breath, transforming into a blood-red Crescent Moon that slashed towards Zoro's neck.

"Um..."

Clang!!

Zoro caught his movement in time, holding a sword in both hands and another in his mouth, he lowered his head and slashed at the crescent Crescent Moon with all three blades, grinding them together to produce a piercing, sharp hissing sound and a lot of sparks flying.

"Give me... disperse!!"

Zoro gritted his teeth, his veins bulging, and roared loudly as he forcefully cleaved the entire slash in two.

boom...

The annihilated blood moon transformed into countless tiny shockwaves that spread outwards, raising large amounts of smoke and dust.

"Heh, interesting. How about this? Shigan Secret Technique... Scarlet Flame Gun!!"

Swoosh...

The fingers, enveloped in Blood Breath, pierced the air instantly, creating a small sonic boom cloud that shot towards Zoro's chest like Sniper Cannon.

"... The Three-Sword Style Secret Technique... Lion Song!!"

Seeing that Luo Chen's fingers were about to pierce his chest, Zoro immediately pulled his hands back, making a counter-slashing motion, and then swung them down with great force, his aura transforming into that of a lion slashing down fiercely.

Swoosh...

boom!!

Zoro's three swords slashed down directly, colliding with Luo Chen's Shigan, which was wrapped in Blood Breath. Although he failed to cut it off, the two swords clashed and generated a violent shock. The air currents became turbulent, lifting up and shattering large areas of the ground around them, turning them into a cloud of sand and dust.

"Can we keep going? Let's try again..."

Swoosh...

As he spoke, Luo Chen Extreme Speed retracted his fingers, his lower body sprang up, and his legs instantly Hardening, sweeping towards his abdomen.

call out...

Bang!!

"Don't even think about sneaking up on me!!"

Just as Luo Chen's crimson foot was about to sweep Zoro away, Sanji appeared from the side and swung his scorching, glowing right leg at him.

Sanji kicked Luo Chen's large foot away with one kick, causing another violent shockwave that spread outwards in ripples.

call out...

"Oh... Gum-Gum... JEK Bazooka!!"

As Sanji kicked Luo Chen's big foot, Luffy Gear Second, took advantage of the chaos and unleashed a flurry of punches.

Thump...

Luffy's fists landed effortlessly on Luo Chen's scale-covered left chest, sending him flying backward with a whoosh.

Bang...

Suddenly struck by a powerful blow, his body flew backward uncontrollably, finally crashing into the trunk of a redwood tree, creating a large, human-shaped hole.
