In the eyes of Lin Yuan, Kuina, and even Kaido, the battle below was still incredibly chaotic, even bordering on petty squabbles.
Meanwhile, the battle between Zoro and King at another location piqued their interest.
Although Molly's appearance brought the battle back to a balanced state, the final battle still revolves around Kaido, Luffy, Zoro, and King.
As powerful figures at the Emperor level, their combat abilities will determine the final outcome.
With Luffy unconscious, Kaido is unwilling to intervene, and the outcome of the battle currently rests on the shoulders of Zoro and King.
"Clang clang clang clang..."
After a brief probing, Zoro and King were already unleashing their full power.
Zoro, Three-Sword Style, transforms into a being with three heads, six arms, and nine swords, his body flashing with countless black sword beams as he fiercely slashes at King.
Jhin, who possesses the blood of the Lunarians, is surrounded by countless flames. He wields a huge longsword, three or four meters long, and every strike is filled with explosive flames.
Lin Yuan watched the two fight with great interest. In the original story, King was ultimately defeated by Zoro, but they were weaker back then than they are now.
Now that the two have broken through to the Admiral, they are fighting again. Even Lin Yuan cannot tell who will win or lose in the short term. However, in his heart, Zoro will definitely win the final battle.
It wasn't because Zoro was part of the main cast, but because Lin Yuan had a premonition that Zoro, after receiving the Nidai Kitetsu and special training, would become even stronger.
If he could completely master Conqueror's Haki Coating, he might even reach the strength of an Emperor, but this is not something that can be done in a short time.
Back at the secret base, even with Lin Yuan's personal guidance, Zoro only managed to unleash a few Conqueror's Haki Coating slashes, and had no chance to do so in actual combat.
Compared to the Five Emperors who can unleash such offensive power at will, Zoro still has a long way to go.
" Three-Sword Style: Hellish Enma!"
Just then, Zoro let out a low groan, and the Demonic Aura around him grew even stronger, making the phantom of his three heads, six arms, and nine swords even more solid.
A hint of seriousness flashed in Jin's eyes. He hadn't expected his opponent to be so strong. This great swordsman, with the strength of Admiral, was incredibly powerful with every strike, reminding him of the world's strongest swordsman.
However, compared to Mihawk's bold and imposing direct attacks, the great swordsman before him seemed sinister, more like a demon from hell.
However, King did not back down at all. His flames intensified, and his several-meter-long sword emitted scorching flames before slashing fiercely at Zoro.
" Blazing Fire Burns Rock!"
The malevolent darkness and flames collided violently, their sharp energy tearing the earth apart.
Under the powerful blows of Zoro and King, the area within a kilometer radius was instantly shattered, and the collision of their strikes tore open huge ravines.
Meanwhile, Jack, Sanji, and the others who were fighting quickly took cover, creating distance between them once again.
Kuina watched the two exchange with a hint of admiration in her eyes. If she weren't in Lin Yuan's arms, she would have loved to join the fight.
Kaido also stopped drinking, his eyes becoming somewhat serious.
"Clang!!!"
A deafening metallic clang echoed for miles around as Zoro's three swords clashed violently with King's sword.
Because of the significant height difference between the two, it looks more like Zoro took the hit directly from King.
Get out of here!
Zoro roared, his arm muscles bulging, veins bulging, and forced King back.
Although he retreated dozens of meters, Jin's aura grew even stronger. Suddenly, a pair of huge wings unfolded from Jin's back, and he took flight like a ball of flame rising into the sky.
In his recent battle with Zoro, King struggled in their swordsmanship duel, unable to defeat him even with his full strength, which reminded him of Mihawk.
However, the man before him was much younger, and his so-called Three-Sword Style could transform into countless blades, leaving him no chance whatsoever.
Jin knew that if he continued to use swordsmanship to fight, he would still be the one to lose in the end. Only by facing his opponent head-on could he feel the sharp aura emanating from him.
King no longer intended to continue the swordsmanship contest, but instead chose to use his bloodline power and Devil Fruit abilities.
"Hmph, as expected of the Straw Hat Pirates ' vice-captain. Since my swordsmanship is inferior to yours, then I'll show you my true strength."
" Flame Emperor!!!"
A murderous intent flashed across Jin's face. The mysterious flames on Li's body transformed into fireballs in his hands, which then grew larger and larger until they finally became a large fireball with a diameter of two meters.
King spread his wings, held a huge fireball in his right hand, glanced at Jack and the others out of the corner of his eye, and then hurled the fireball at Zoro.
" One Sword Style: Flying Dragon: Flame!"
Zoro sheathed his Nidai and Sandai Kitetsu, gripped a Skillful Grade Swords in his hand, and slashed fiercely at Jin in the sky.
A silvery-white, dragon-shaped flame shot into the sky, hurtling fiercely towards the fireball launched by Jin.
"Those are some really flashy moves!"
Looking at the somewhat beautiful yet murderous silver-white dragon shadow, Kuina scoffed with a hint of jealousy.
Lin Yuan looked at Zoro with admiration. Putting everything else aside, this guy's naming skills and poetry recitation were quite impressive. Lin Yuan would call Zoro the number one poet in the pirate world.
No one expected that Zoro would fight fire with fire.
The silvery-white dragon shadow opened its enormous mouth and fiercely glared at the fireball falling from the sky. From a distance, an uninformed person might mistake it for a real dragon swallowing and spitting out a dragon pearl.
"Boom!!!"
The silver-white dragon-shaped flames and the giant fireball collided violently, illuminating the originally gloomy and dark Onigashima. Then, with a loud bang, the silver dragon flames and the fireball crashed together, and countless flames rained down on all parts of Onigashima.
Sanji and the others truly stopped this time, as huge balls of flame were hurtling towards them.
Although those flames were unleashed during the battle between Zoro and King, neither dared to withstand them head-on, as those fireballs were actually flashing with sharp killing intent.
King hadn't expected that Zoro would use a flaming blade to counter his own flames, and that the power was evenly matched.
Seeing that Jin was somewhat surprised by his attack power, Zoro's face showed a resolute look. He swung his sword back into its sheath, but tightened his grip on the hilt even more.
" One-Sword Style: Iai - Black Blade - Death - Lion's Song!"
Under the watchful eyes of Lin Yuan, Kuina, and Kaido, Zoro shattered the ground of Onigashima with a single step, and then flew up at an extremely fast speed.
He enveloped his Haki in the hilt of his sword, leaped into the air, and then, to everyone's astonishment, unleashed the Death Lion's Song!
Seeing Zoro charging in again, King couldn't help but smile.
"Heh, what terrifying swordsmanship. But I'm Devil Fruit User."
