"Hehehe, you think you can provoke me with such low words? How naive! However, I have now recovered to my peak strength and am looking for someone to test my skills with. Let me show you what the strength of a great pirate is all about..."
Snake-Snake Fruit. Ancient Zoan. Titanoboa, Transform!!
After speaking, Jet's body rapidly transformed, suddenly stretching and growing larger. In a short while, an ancient beast, the Titanoboa, with a body comparable to Giant, flicking its tongue, and emerald green vertical pupils like two large lanterns lit in the darkness, exuding a cold and eerie aura, stood before Luo Chen.
brush...
A few seconds later, the terrifying Colossal Beast vanished Extreme Speed, and then a snake-man about nine meters tall, exuding an overwhelming aura, appeared in the spot. His emotionless vertical pupils, like a hunter sizing up its prey, stared intently at Luo Chen. After a moment of staring, he spoke indifferently.
"I am Ancient Zoan Devil Zoan who ate the Snake-Snake Fruit, in its Titanoboa form. Although my ability is not as powerful as yours..."
However, the strength of a Devil Fruit user is not solely determined by the level of their Devil Fruit abilities; the development of the Devil Fruit itself is even more important.
After decades of development, I've already brought it to the Awakening stage. Now, let me show you...
Sigh~
After speaking, the enormous figure that Jet had transformed into took a deep breath.
" Death Breath..."
call out...
A highly compressed air bubble shot out of his mouth and towards Luo Chen.
"Um..."
Swoosh...
Bang!!
Sizzle sizzle...
Luo Chen was the first to sense the approaching danger and swung his sword to strike.
With a clang, a piercing sword sound rang out. Luo Chen blocked the attack with his sword, but in his haste, he couldn't completely block it. He was thrown back quite a distance by the Impact of the recoil.
"That's quite impressive, isn't it? Let me see your true skills again... Oh~"
clatter...
clatter...
clatter...
After finishing speaking, Luo Chen strode towards Jet.
Swoosh...
As he reached him, he gripped Rain Burial's right wrist tightly, raised it, and then forcefully chopped it down from above his head.
" Armament..."
Jet whispered, a rich Armament Haki swirling around him.
Clang!!
The sword blade struck his black, smooth, and hard scales, sending sparks flying.
But the blade was immediately sliced open again, and then Jet made his move, extending his emerald green arm covered with layers of scales, surrounded by a black sheen.
" Armament... King Snake Fist!!"
Bang!!
brush...
Sizzle sizzle...
Luo Chen was knocked back again, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but he had no time to care. He raised his sword and slashed at Jet was running forward and throwing punches.
Clang!!
The sword's edge clashed with the fist's surface, generating a surge of energy that rippled outwards in concentric circles.
Swoosh...
Clang!!
The next second, Jet pulled back his fist and punched again, striking Luo Chen's sword with a loud thud.
The sword rang out again, and the energy surged and trembled once more.
brush...
The two simultaneously pulled their hands back, then stepped forward again.
"Sword skill... One Flash!!"
As Luo Chen spoke, the tip of his sword was enveloped in an extremely dense Armament Haki, gleaming as he thrust it forward.
" Armament... Snake Thrust!!"
Jet simultaneously launched his attack, raising his Snake Tail and thrusting it forward with black light condensing at the tip.
Clang...
boom!!!
At the very first clash, a powerful shockwave erupted from the center, unleashing a torrent of energy. The surging, trembling air currents emanated from the two foes, continuously sweeping across the surrounding area and spreading outwards.
" Armament... King Snake Bite!!"
Swoosh...
Jet's two white fangs instantly turned black, his Snake Tail wrapped around Luo Chen, his upper body transformed, his neck lengthened, and his snake head lunged forward.
"Um..."
Clang!!
In less than a second, Jet's huge snake head, as big as a small car, attacked, Luo Chen immediately retaliated with his free left hand.
Sizzle sizzle...
The fist imprint landed on the giant snake's fangs, blocking its massive head, but Luo Chen couldn't withstand the immense force of the Charge. He was thrown backward, his feet scraping two deep ravines in the ground before finally stopping it.
" Armament... the King Snake Whip!!"
Swoosh...
Before Luo Chen could relax, Jet's attack came close in the next second. While Luo Chen was distracted in blocking his snake head's pounce, Jet's Snake Tail retracted, turning a stab into a sweep. The small, hard, and smooth scales at the end of the tail were wrapped with Haki, sweeping from his side like a black whip.
Bang...
This time, Luo Chen didn't anticipate it, or rather, even if he did, he couldn't react in time. His shoulder blade was hit hard and he was sent flying to the side.
boom...
Luo Chen's body, sent flying, slammed into the steel-like wall built by Jet like a human cannonball, becoming completely embedded inside.
call out...
Jet's tail bounced lightly on the ground, propelling its entire body to appear instantly in front of Luo Chen, its Haki tail tip thrusting fiercely towards him.
" Armament... Snake Thrust!!"
brush...
boom!!
In the nick of time, Luo Chen managed to pull himself away and fall downwards. Jet's Snake Tail pierced the city wall, creating a large, translucent hole about two or three meters in diameter.
Swoosh...
" King Snake Whip!!"
As Luo Chen stood up and shook his head to shake off the dizziness, his vision suddenly went dark, making him realize something was wrong, and he quickly rolled to the side.
boom...
As the Snake Tail swept down, the ground instantly shattered, cracks spread Extreme Speed, and a huge ravine formed in an instant.
" King Snake Bite!!"
Jet didn't give Luo Chen a chance to react. As soon as the tail fell, the snake's head attacked instantly, opening its huge mouth and two black fangs that could easily pierce steel to bite down.
" Tekkai... Demolition Fist!!"
Luo Chen's combat awareness was also outstanding. He detected the opponent's attack in advance, and his right fist muscles immediately tensed up. With a flash of black light, he swung his fist forward at Extreme Speed to meet the attack.
Bang...
The fist imprinted again onto the opponent's fangs, stopping his snake head.
Buzzing...
The volatile energy surged upwards, and streams of air clashed and dispersed, causing the air layers to ripple outwards in concentric circles.
Bang...
After a brief standoff, both men were simultaneously thrown back by the recoil, each leaving two deep furrows in the ground. Accompanied by a spray of mud, they skidded a considerable distance before coming to a stop.
Ta-da-ta-da...
At the same time, the two charged at each other again.
Bang...
Bang...
Bang...
Fists clashed, sword blades flashed, and bursts of energy exploded. Under the force of their clash, the ground beneath their feet shattered, and fragments of stone flew everywhere.
Sigh~
" True King Snake Wrath!!"
Jet opened his mouth and inhaled a large amount of air, compressing and condensing it into an air cannon inside the giant snake's belly. The snake's head turned, and the air cannon swept horizontally towards the position where Luo Chen was standing on the ground.
" Tekkai... Hundred Demolition Fist!!"
Bang... Bang... Bang...
Luo Chen swung his fists and arms, each Demolition Fist a precise strike to the incoming air cannons. Explosions rang out, the air trembled from the explosive force of the punches, and the air layer rippled up again.
Whoosh~
After Luo Chen blocked all the attacks, he appeared above the giant snake's head in the next second, pressed down with both fists, and roared.
" Armament... the Six King Gun!!"
boom!!
A powerful Impact exploded on his forehead, shattering his scales and splattering drops of dark red blood. Jet's snake head was violently flipped to the ground.
Thump... thump... thump...
boom!!
Splash...
As the aftershocks spread, a huge crater appeared on the ground, which then sank several meters inward, with rubble rolling down and burying his snake head inside.
Swoosh...
clatter!!
"How was that? Not bad, right?!"
Luo Chen landed steadily on the ground and looked at Jet, who was buried under the rubble.
call out...
After speaking, she lightly stepped forward and disappeared from the spot, launching another attack on him.
call out...
When it reappeared, the fist imprint shot down from above towards the deep pit that buried his head.
Swoosh...
However, Jet was not so easily defeated. With a flick of his Snake Tail, he swept towards him like Iron Whip.
