Whoosh!
The waves became even more turbulent due to the five people's battle, constantly crashing against the shattered edge of Raijin Island.
The thunder seemed even more intense on the island.
Blood, like cheap dye, was constantly splattered in the air.
Roy and his three companions fought against a legend thanks to their excellent teamwork, but the Golden Lion, with his unparalleled combat experience, managed to make them pay a heavy price.
Bullet had the most wounds; his tough fur and muscles were severely compromised in defense against the Golden Lion's Famous Sword.
But like a war machine that knows no pain, it roars and stands at the forefront, using its body to create opportunities for its comrades.
Hawk Eyes's robes were torn in several places, and the web of his hand holding the knife was already split open, blood staining the hilt of Black Blade Yoru.
But his eyes remained as calm as ice, and every strike was precise and deadly, forcing the Golden Lion to be unable to launch a full-scale attack.
Tesoro, thanks to his lightning speed and elemental transformation, suffered the least injuries, but the high-intensity use of his abilities also rapidly depleted his stamina, leaving him slightly pale.
Roy felt a slight tingling sensation in his brain as he maintained a high-intensity Mental Link.
At the same time, he also has to focus on fighting and using his abilities, which is a huge burden on his mental and physical strength.
Every now and then, they also have to face the Golden Lion's unexpected ' Conqueror's Coating.
Although it managed to withstand the impact, it still suffered a considerable backlash.
The Golden Lion is also having a tough time.
He had seven or eight wounds on his body, which, although not fatal, were constantly draining his strength and energy.
What annoyed him even more was that the four kids' teamwork was flawless. Every time he thought he could seriously injure one of them, the other three would always manage to neutralize or force him back in time.
"This can't go on!"
The thought flashed through the minds of Golden Lion and Roy almost simultaneously.
A fierce glint flashed in the Golden Lion's eyes. He feigned an opening and took a moderate punch from Bullet, using the force to pounce on Roy!
The twin blades moved like Poison Dragon emerging from their lair, one aimed at Roy's head, the other piercing straight for his heart, their speed reaching the extreme!
"Roy!" Barrett Tezzolo exclaimed in unison!
At this moment, Roy's eyes flashed red, his wrist flicked, and the blade of his Great Grade Sword ' Red Rock ' blocked his heart. A gravity ' Singularity ' formed on the tip of his left fist.
Ignoring the blade aimed at his head, he slammed his left fist into the Golden Lion's side.
"Bite!"
The blade of ' Red Rock ' clashed violently with the tip of ' Kogarashi ' almost simultaneously—
"Clang!"
Hawk Eyes appeared beside Roy like a ghost, his Black Blade Yoru.
Another crisp sound of impact rang out!
Just as Roy had foreseen in the future, Hawk Eyes appeared beside him like a ghost, his Black Blade Yoru.
He parried the fatal blow aimed at Roy's head with perfect precision!
Almost at the same time--
Roy's left fist, emanating a strange Gravity Singularity, slammed solidly into the Golden Lion's side!
"Bang!"
A dull thud rang out!
The Gravity Singularity did not produce a violent explosion at the moment it came into contact with the Armament Haki covering Golden Lion's waist.
Instead, it displays its eerie and terrifying characteristics—an instantaneous burst of extreme twisting power!
"Ugh!"
The Golden Lion let out a painful groan, its face suddenly turning pale.
He felt as if his internal organs were being gripped and torn apart by an invisible hand!
A sharp pain shot straight to his brain, causing his previously fluid dual-sword attack to falter, and his body to stiffen and lose balance for a moment!
After Hawk Eyes parried the attack, he used the momentum to deflect the force, flipped the Black Blade, and aimed straight for Golden Lion's wrist.
"You bastard!!"
Golden Lion was both shocked and furious. The excruciating pain in his waist and abdomen, coupled with Hawk Eyes's deadly slash, made him feel an unprecedented sense of crisis!
Forcibly suppressing his surging blood and qi, his fighting instincts led him to make the right choice—he abruptly released the ' Oto ' he was holding in his left hand.
Letting it fall downwards, while simultaneously unleashing the power of the Float-Float Fruit beneath its feet, it retreated rapidly like a willow catkin blown by a gale, narrowly avoiding Hawk Eyes's slash aimed at its wrist!
However, although he avoided the danger of losing his wrist, he completely lost the opportunity to continue pursuing Roy and Hawk Eyes, and also temporarily lost a Famous Sword!
The offensive has been completely thwarted!
"Now! Combine your attacks!"
Roy roared through the Mental Link!
He would never let go of this hard-won, golden opportunity that he and Hawk Eyes had created together!
"Roar! Die, Golden Lion!"
Bullet was already poised to strike, charging forward like a cannonball. His black and red fist, imbued with a rudimentary Conqueror's Haki Coating's Haki, combined with his monstrous strength, slammed into Golden Lion's back like a heavy cannon!
"Thunder Emperor Purple Lightning Cage!"
Tesoro spread his arms, and countless dark purple Lightning in the sky converged like living things, weaving into a huge lightning network that blocked the Golden Lion's escape space to the left, right, and above!
Roy himself once again focused his Conqueror's Haki on ' Red Rock ', and the black and red blade locked onto Golden Lion!
Roy's poised slash and Hawk Eyes's icy blade were in front of him, while Bullet's ferocious punches came from behind. Tesoro's lightning net blocked him from all sides!
The Golden Lion, a legend who has roamed the seas for decades, seems to have fallen into a desperate situation where he is surrounded on all sides and has no way to escape!
"Heh... Hahahaha!!!"
The sudden change did not cause the Golden Lion to despair; instead, it made him laugh even more maniacally and violently!
His long, golden hair stood on end like a lion's mane, and his eyes burned with an almost tangible madness!
The excruciating pain in his side, the humiliation of losing his Famous Sword, the rage of being driven to the brink by a junior... all these emotions transformed into a destructive will that would burn everything to ashes!
"You want to kill me?!"
"You bunch of greenhorns?!"
"Dream!!!"
The Golden Lion abandoned its defenses and concentrated all its power on the remaining ' Kogarashi '!
The blade of ' Kogarashi ' was radiating golden light, and its black and red Conqueror's Haki was almost tangible, containing enough energy to make the world lose its color.
"I am Golden Lion Shiki!!!"
"Secret Technique - The End - Lion - Great Annihilation!!!"
The Golden Lion roared and slashed fiercely at Roy and Hawk Eyes, who were closing in on him, with the ' Kogarashi ' that had gathered all its power!
Just as the Golden Lion unleashed its slash,
"We got it!!" Bullet's furious roar and Tesoro's piercing thunder rang out simultaneously!
"Bang!!!"
The heavy fist, covered in black and red Inazuma, slammed solidly into the Golden Lion's unsuspecting back!
A terrifying force instantly penetrated his body, accompanied by a clear cracking sound. The Golden Lion could even feel his heart suddenly stop beating!
"Zzzzzzz--!!!"
Almost simultaneously, countless dark purple Lightning, like venomous snakes, burrowed into his body, which was stiff from the heavy blow, and rampaged and destroyed within him!
A strong feeling of numbness and excruciating, tearing pain swept through my entire body!
"Puff--!!!"
The fatal blow from behind caused the Golden Lion to cough up a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs. His tall body, like a shooting star, streaked through the air and fell towards the island below.
Boom--!
With a loud bang, smoke and dust mixed with gravel shot into the sky.
The ground, which was incredibly hard from being constantly bombarded by Lightning, was blasted into a deep crater.
