"Um!!"
Luo Chen looked up and saw that his vision was filled with blue and white Flying Slash. When he turned around, the Flying Slash were already slashing down from the sky.
" Mighty Dragon!!"
Clang!!
In a moment of haste, he held the Rain Burial, roared, and with a flick of his wrist, the sword sang, and a white dragon flew out to meet the oncoming Flying Slash.
boom...
The dragon's tail and the crocodile's tail clashed and struck the Flying Slash, creating a deafening roar that echoed throughout the entire island. Sword energy surged and energy rippled through the air, creating layers of translucent ripples.
Swoosh...
The giant crocodile stood upright with its body upright, its lower limbs pushing off the ground with force, and charged forward in a flash. Its Crocodile Claw were covered with a layer of domineering Haki, like incomparably sharp blades, gleaming with a dazzling black light. Then Mammon swung his black, gleaming claws at Luo Chen.
brush...
Clang!!
Luo Chen reacted at this moment, his sword also shrouded in Haki, and with a flick of his arm, the blade slashed down.
The black sword blade clashed with equally black claws, the sound of swords rang out again, and the emanating energy swept in all directions once more.
brush...
The two did not remain locked in a stalemate for long; they quickly separated and retreated back to the ground.
call out...
"Hey, Mr. Luo Chen, I think I've already told you that you don't only have one opponent. Rankyaku... Rock Burst!!"
Chaton raised his right leg, the yellowish-brown rock covering his calf, and simultaneously unleashed a powerful, purplish-black Haki as he swept it towards Luo Chen's side waist.
" Armament... Steel Slash!!"
Luo Chen's expression remained unchanged as he unleashed Haki from his right arm, which swirled around the sword as he slashed to the side.
Clang!!
The sword blade was blocked by Chaton's rocky right foot, the airflow was scattered, and the wind and waves exploded.
" Pink Undercurrent!!"
Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, a delicate shout rang in his ears, followed by a pink Flying Slash of energy slashing towards him.
"Oh no, my fist technique... Crushing Rupture!!"
As the Flying Slash attack hurtled towards him, Luo Chen sensed a strong sense of danger. He immediately raised his other hand, a dense, dark aura of Haki surrounding it, and threw a punch.
Bang...
The fist blasted loudly, and for a moment, the black fist energy and the pink Flying Slash were locked in a stalemate. But after only two or three seconds, the protective layer of energy shield created by the fist energy Shattering, and then the Flying Slash fist technique smashed directly into his body.
"Damn it!!"
In an instant, Luo Chen prepared to leave and was about to turn away when he heard...
"Oh dear, that won't do, Captain Luo Chen! How can I let such a golden opportunity slip by? You'd better stay here!"
Chaton's lewd voice, somewhat similar to Kizaru's, reached his ears, and then Luo Chen felt a powerful force from his right arm firmly pinning him to this spot.
"Hehehe, what a great opportunity! Leave some for me too! Ultimate Technique... Emperor Crocodile... Rokuogan!!"
This was the Rokuogan, which he had developed from his own understanding. Its ferocious and terrifying aura, like that of an ancient beast, and the incredibly solid Impact condensed in his fists, erupted at this moment and blasted towards Luo Chen's back, who was being pinned down by Chaton and attacked from both sides.
boom...
Clang...
With no way to retreat and caught in a pincer attack, Luo Chen immediately channeled all his power at this critical moment. Torrent of blood erupted from his body, blasting away the unsuspecting Chaton. Then, enveloped in this Blood Breath, Luo Chen withdrew his hand, and the spreading Torrent immediately gathered towards the center, forming a bloody barrier around him.
Clang!!
boom!!
The next instant, two attacks approached, striking his blood-red shield one after the other.
boom...
Click click... bang!!
The crimson barrier didn't last long. Upon the first collision, the barrier cracked, and soon the cracks spread in all directions. With a deafening roar, it shattered completely, and then the Flying Slash and Impact continued to bombard it inward.
Bang...
But when the crimson barrier dissipated, Luo Chen was no longer there. The two attacks continued to slam and collided, the air currents churning and surging, the energy spreading all around. After a short while, the two attacks canceled each other out, and after a brief stalemate, they turned into mud.
"Hmm, did he escape?"
The three looked closely and found that there was no one there. Luo Chen had left under the cover of the blood-red barrier he had erected.
Knowing he was gone, they didn't let their guard down, constantly scanning their surroundings in hopes of finding him immediately.
"Yes, there it is!!"
The three focused their attention and activated their Observation Haki. Their Observation Haki, which far surpassed that of Headquarters Vice Admiral, was naturally very proficient and had a wide range. After scanning the area, they found his location and stared at him.
brush...
As the smoke cleared, Luo Chen's enormous, blood-red figure appeared before them. It had two horns on its head, two wings on its back, and its body was covered in scales made of interwoven scales, with bone spurs growing from its joints.
"Is this the kind of ability that Fleet Admiral Sakazuki (Sister Crane, Boss) values?"
Seeing the abilities Luo Chen displayed, the three of them said in unison.
"Hehehe, Mythical Zoan, Asura Form. Please take a look..."
boom!!
call out...
With that, he flapped his wings and vanished from their sight with a whoosh.
"Not good!!"
The three men's expressions changed drastically, and they immediately turned to defend themselves.
Bang... Bang... Bang...
A streak of crimson Flowing Light flashed behind them, and in that instant, Luo Chen threw a punch.
The force of the punch exploded, instantly blasting the three who had tried to retreat and defend back.
In an instant, the bodies of the several people flew backward like cannonballs.
boom!!
Sizzle sizzle...
But they were no pushovers. As they turned back to defend, their speed suddenly decreased, and they came to a stop quickly, their feet leaving several tracks on the ground.
"His strength has increased significantly since using this ability, this is going to be difficult, Miss Gion!!"
"Okay... I understand!!"
Chaton and Momousagi, being companions, understood each other's meaning with a glance. The next moment, Momousagi ran towards him first, raised the Konpira sword, and slashed at Luo Chen.
Clang!!
A sword hummed, Flying Slash of energy shot out, its sharp and unstoppable force tearing through the air as it descended from mid-air.
"Trying to attack from both sides? That won't work... Hmm!!"
Luo Chen immediately saw through their intentions. He spread his wings and retreated, but before he could take flight, a whooshing sound erupted behind him as Mammon, transformed into his Human-Beast Form, suddenly appeared behind him and delivered a powerful punch.
boom...
The force of the punch exploded, the resounding boom echoed, and a huge hole was blasted into Luo Chen's back by the punch.
Swoosh...
Thump!!
"They're here, Yellow Rock... the Earth Prison!!"
As soon as Luo Chen landed, a huge crater instantly appeared in the ground. Then Chaton seized the opportunity, pressed his right hand on the ground, and transmitted earthen-yellow light waves...
Suddenly, four large hands emerged from the pit, gripping and locking him in place. Then, the mud beneath him surged up, and another giant rock arm, as big as a Giant, emerged from the side and slammed its fist down on his chest.
boom...
"Miss Gion!!"
The rocky arm slammed down, then turned back into mud, covering and locking him in place. Immediately afterward Momousagi Chaton over.
"Hmm!! Pink Cloud Trail!!"
Just as one Flying Slash had already been unleashed, Momousagi followed closely behind with another attack, sending yet another pink wave of Flying Slash crashing down.
Clang!!
Clang!!
Two pink Flying Slash crossed and descended, sword energy whistling, wind and waves exploding, instantly creating a cross crack in the ground, and a huge ravine continued to spread.
Swoosh...
"Again!! Tekkai Secret Technique... Crocodile King Fist!!"
boom...
After Momousagi, Mammon continued his attack, giving him no chance to escape.
The thick, scale-covered arm instantly Hardening and glowed. As the fist imprint landed, the previously cracked ground instantly shattered, rocks flew everywhere, the earth collapsed and caved in with a rumble, and yellow dust billowed up.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the three men kept their eyes fixed on the spot, trying to see if he could survive their deadly combo.
"Captain~"
Meanwhile, Monbuma, distracted by her fight with Vergo, turned her head and shouted at him.
"Heh heh heh, Captain?! How could you possibly survive the combined attack of those three monsters? You'd better worry about yourself first. You dare to be distracted while fighting me?!"
Bang...
A casual strike shattered the Eye Whale attack launched by Violet, who was guerrilla-like in the distance, turning it back into scalding black tears that spilled onto the ground.
"Although I don't know why you betrayed him and joined this guild, since you've done such a thing, you must bear the corresponding punishment, Violet!!"
Instead of launching an attack, Vergo turned his gaze to Violet, who was constantly emitting ominous Eye Whale that were disturbing him and Smoker, and murmured in a low voice.
His voice was so soft that no one heard it. In the next instant, he stomped his feet at Extreme Speed and suddenly disappeared from their sight.
"Oh no, danger! Violet, retreat quickly!!"
Monbuma noticed that his target was Violet, whose fighting strength was weak. He turned around and shouted a warning to her, and immediately set off in that direction.
"Too late, just fall down."
call out...
Vergo chuckled and shook his head, instantly appearing in front of Violet, his fist, covered in Armament Haki, smashing towards her stomach.
"Oh no... Tear Whale!!"
Violet felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and then Vergo's figure appeared in front of her. Not to be outdone, she snapped her fingers, and two large-headed whales flew out of her eye sockets.
"Ha, nothing but useless things made of tears, yet you dare to obstruct the way?!"
Vergo scoffed, then swung his fist down.
Bang...
As the fist imprint descended, the force of the fist exploded, and the two whales, not yet fully formed, Burst open from the middle, spraying out black liquid.
"After such a long stalemate, it's time for me to fall down... Tekkai!!"
Vergo shouted in a deep voice, Hardening his fist and arm again, and slammed it down.
Bang!!
Pfft~
"Ugh~"
boom...
Sizzle sizzle... thud!!
The fist imprint landed on Violet's stomach, and the intense force caused her to cough up a mouthful of blood, her breath weakening. Her body shrank and flew backward, scraping a deep groove in the ground before finally stopping.
But at this point, she had also lost her fighting ability and could no longer have any impact on them.
" Violet!!"
Monbuma still couldn't catch up. He roared, his aura surging, and with a focused grip on his staff, he leaped up and slashed down from the air.
" Tekkai!!"
Thump...
Vergo didn't take the attack seriously. He straightened his body, Hardening his muscles, and covered his entire body with black Haki to receive Monbuma's angry blow.
Buzz...
The staff slammed into Vergo's head, the force exploding instantly and ripples spreading outwards.
"Damn it, how could this be? He should at least have gotten hurt..."
Monbuma gritted his teeth and said hatefully, but when his sticks clashed, there wasn't even a scratch on Vergo's body, not even a drop of blood could flow, making him doubt the effectiveness of his training over the past two years.
Sizzle...
"Are you done playing?"
Vergo calmly raised his head and looked over, reaching out to grab the stick and pinning him in place, then asked in a low voice.
"Damn it, is it possible that all my training over the past year hasn't even been enough to leave a minor injury on Vice Admiral?"
Monbuma lost his composure and gritted his teeth in hatred.
"I don't know about others, but if it were me, I'm sorry to tell you, it's impossible!!"
Vergo's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, then forcefully pulled his wrist inward.
"Alright, now that everyone's made their moves, it's my turn..."
After saying that, he punched him in the face.
" Monbuma, danger... Vitality... Green Vine!!"
Seeing Monbuma in danger Nayako was fighting alongside Lulith against Smoker, immediately activated her ability, slamming a green energy ball into the ground.
Wow...
Covered in greenery, a thick green vine stretched out from the ground and pierced towards Vergo.
"Want to rescue him? Here you go!!"
Vergo smiled sinisterly, turned around and threw the long staff in his hand in that direction. With a whoosh, Monbuma and the staff were thrown together towards the tip of the vine sent by Nayako.
"Not good..."
Nayako immediately realized Vergo's sinister intentions and quickly pulled the vines back.
But in that instant, Vergo seized the opportunity, closing in and flashing above Monbuma, clenching his fist and slamming it down.
"Get out of my way!!"
Nayako was distracted again, controlling another vine to reach out and whip at him.
"Still too inexperienced..."
Vergo shook his head, his fist continuing its return towards Monbuma without stopping, while simultaneously using Armament Haki to defend his back.
Clang!!
boom!!
The tips of the vines pierced his back, which had been hardened by Haki to be Hardening than steel, producing a metallic clang. Then the vines were shaken off, and at the same time, his fist came down on Monbuma.
boom...
Pfft~
Thump!!
Monbuma was attacked from behind, and suddenly coughed up blood and fell to the ground.
A large, human-shaped crater instantly appeared in the ground, and he was also injured, his combat strength diminished.
"What are you going to do now?! White Vine... Roaming Snake!!"
While Nayako was distracted, Smoker launched an attack on Lulith was holding the line independently.
Smoker knew his attacks were unlikely to be fatal to her, so he changed direction, using his two arms to transform into two slithering pythons from white smoke, which bound Lulith was flying around and launching attacks.
"This is... I can't break free!!"
First, Lulith was bound by two pythons formed from clouds and smoke, and then from all directions, strands of smoke stretched out and tightly wrapped around her, which she could not break free of no matter how hard she tried.
Bang...
Like prey trapped in a spider web Lulith fell to the ground wrapped in a white cocoon. Smoker ignored her and turned to look at Nayako, who was distracted by rescuing others while fighting him.
"She's the last one left..."
"Oh no, Nayako, you're in danger! Run!"
Lulith also realized Smoker's intention and loudly reminded her.
"It's no use. Your captain has been defeated, and the others are gradually falling one after another. What can she do when she's all alone?"
Smoker shook his head and said nonchalantly.
Meanwhile, Vergo, having finished his battle with Violet Montbuma, turned and walked toward Nyarlathotep, who was the last one holding the fort.
"Fall down? How could that be? How could I just stand by and watch my comrades be surrounded and fall down?"
After Smoker said those words, Monbuma, who had been lying on the ground and whose consciousness was gradually fading, stood up again with a sliver of strong will and faced the powerful attacks of Vergo and Smoker together with Nayako.
