"They moved quite quickly."
As soon as they finished speaking, a semi-transparent light shield suddenly appeared on the ground beneath their feet.
The unique energy fluctuations within the Operating Room caused all three to change their expressions simultaneously.
Luo's figure appeared out of thin air.
Kikoku carried a bunch of keys in his left hand and three knives in his right.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Luo shook the keychain.
Who wants to go first?
Luffy's eyes shone like two searchlights. " Torao!!!"
Luo unlocked the three men's Seastone Handcuffs one by one.
The moment the shackles hit the ground, three powerful auras exploded simultaneously.
Luffy flexed his wrists, feeling the power of the Gum-Gum Fruit flowing through his body again.
His muscles twitched slightly, and his skin gleamed with the dark sheen of Armament Haki.
Zoro took the three swords Law handed him, his fingers tracing the hilts, the familiar touch bringing him a sense of relief.
He hung the three knives back on his waist, drew them from their sheaths, and the blades gleamed coldly in the dim light.
Kid clasped his hands together, and the surrounding metal scraps were drawn in by the magnetic force, coalescing into two thick, massive metal arms on his arms.
He clenched his fist, his metal fingers making a crisp clicking sound.
"I've been holding it in for too long."
Luffy punches the air, grinning with his signature wide smile:
"Yosh! Let's make a scene!"
The four men fought their way out from deep within the prison cell.
No guards could stop them.
Luffy's Gum-Gum Rocket blasted away three guards with one punch, and the three guys crashed into the wall, becoming three murals.
Zoro's Three-Sword Style slash sliced an iron door into four pieces, the cut surfaces as smooth as a mirror.
Kid's magnetic arm smashed through an entire wall, sending bricks flying towards the guards like cannonballs.
Luo's Operating Room was precisely cut, and the guards' weapons were separated into parts the moment they came into contact with the light shield, scattering all over the ground.
When they rushed to the quarry plaza, the Straw Hat Pirates and the Nine Red Scabbards were already waiting there.
The released prisoners, armed with weapons they had seized from the guards, surrounded the remaining remnants of the enemy.
Nami's eyes immediately welled up with tears when she saw Luffy.
She rushed forward and punched Luffy on the head, creating a large, smoking bump.
"You idiot! You worried me to death!"
"Sorry! But I've gotten stronger again!"
Luffy covered his head, grinning.
Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke, a smile playing on his lips:
"Whether we've gotten stronger or not, we'll talk about that later. Let's deal with that fat guy first."
Kin'emon and Hyogoro met, their eyes filled with tears, and they held each other's hands tightly.
Twenty years of imprisonment, twenty years of enduring humiliation, and finally this day has come.
Behind Hyogoro stood dozens of released Wano Country samurai, each with a fighting spirit that had been suppressed for twenty years burning in their eyes.
Just then, Queen, who was wreaking havoc in the square, roared madly.
"My concert... my records... my snacks... you've all ruined them!!!"
Queen in his Brachiosaurus Form charged towards the group.
His massive body, nearly twenty meters tall, shook the ground with every step he took, and with a casual slap of his Brachiosaurus claws, he created a crater several meters in diameter in the stone pavement of the square.
The alliance members scattered and hid.
Instead of retreating, Luffy advanced, swinging his rubber arm and punching Queen in the stomach.
" Gum-Gum - King Kong Gun!"
The massive fist, wreathed in Armament Haki, slammed into the Brachiosaurus's abdomen. Queen's impact was forced back half a step by the force, but only half a step.
He looked down at Luffy, a ferocious smile spreading across his reptilian face.
That's it?
Zoro attacked from the side, slashing out with three swords simultaneously, leaving three shallow white marks on Queen's neck.
Kid's magnetic fist struck Queen's head, but it did not cause any real damage.
Apoo's sonic attack made Queen's eardrums tingle, but it only made him frown.
Bege's barrage of shells exploded on Queen's skin, leaving not even a scorch mark after the smoke cleared.
Hawkins transformed into a giant scarecrow, and the straw spears pierced Queen, snapping in two.
Sanji a Diable Jambe Kick to Queen's Brachiosaurus tail, the impact sending numbness through his foot.
"Wow, that's way too hard!"
Sanji rubbed his ankle after landing.
"That elephant was the same way last time. The Beasts Pirates are all like monsters; their defenses are insane!"
Luo stood to the side, his lips twitching slightly.
He certainly knew why.
The enhanced physical defense resulting from multiple heart transplants and bloodline strengthening makes it impossible for ordinary attacks to penetrate.
But he didn't say anything.
Enraged by the mob attack, Queen swept his long neck across the battlefield, sending several warriors flying.
The Brachiosaurus slammed its heavy claws into the ground repeatedly, creating one huge crater after another.
The Brachiosaurus's tail whipped up a huge rock and hurled it towards the crowd, but Robin managed to catch it with the arm net of her Flower-Flower Fruit.
"Our attacks can't hurt him at all!" Nami shouted anxiously.
Just then, Hyogoro's voice came from the crowd. "Little brother! Use that!"
Luffy, Zoro, Kid exchanged a glance and nodded in unison.
The three of them simultaneously activated the power they had just mastered within their bodies.
Unlike ordinary Armament Haki Hardening, the Ryuo power flows along the edge of the fist and the blade, like flowing cherry blossom petals, shimmering with a faint white halo.
Luffy charged forward first.
" Gum-Gum - Ryuo - King Kong Gun!"
The fist slammed into Queen's side.
This time was completely different from before— Queen felt a force pierce through his thick flesh, directly impacting his internal organs.
His vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Zoro followed closely behind.
" Three-Sword Style: Ryuo - Oni Giri!"
Three knives struck Queen behind the knees.
The power of the Ryuo severed the nerves deep within the ligaments, and Queen's right leg instantly lost sensation, causing the Brachiosaurus's body to tilt forward.
Kid leaped high into the air, clasping his fists together. The power of Ryuo surged wildly across his massive metal fists, distorting the surrounding air.
"Magnetic Force, Ryuo, Great Crushing Fist!"
A giant fist slammed into Queen on the back of the head.
The power of the Ryuo pierced through his skull, and Queen felt as if he had been hit on the forehead by a meteorite.
The sudden burst of power from Luffy, Zoro, and Kid caused Queen's massive Brachiosaurus body to crash to the ground.
The ground was smashed into a crater tens of meters in diameter, and smoke and dust billowed into the sky.
Amidst the smoke and dust, Queen transformed back into human form, lying motionless on the ground.
Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were rolled back, and he had completely lost consciousness.
The square fell silent for a moment, then erupted in deafening cheers.
In truth, this was not entirely Queen's fault for being careless.
Who would have thought that among the group of people who couldn't cause them any harm before, there would be someone who could use Armament Haki to destroy internal structures?
When Queen realized something was wrong and tried to defend with Haki, he was immediately and hard-controlled by a combo attack from the three without any explanation.
Queen didn't even realize he'd fallen to the ground.
