The gap is still widening.
A large burst of Black Lightning passed over the remaining sword energy and headed straight for Shiki.
"What?"
Shiki's heart sank.
This strike was far more powerful than the previous ones.
That Thunder Dragon could not only destroy sword energy, but also devour the power generated after the sword energy erupted.
The more strikes he makes, the more power his opponent absorbs.
The pirates on the nearby islands were already speechless.
They looked up at the dark Thunder Dragon spanning the sky, their bodies retreating backward.
"Lion Thousand-Cut Valley has been torn to shreds!"
"Captain Shiki's sword aura can't stop it!"
"What exactly is that ability?"
An old pirate clung tightly to the rock face.
"Black lightning, capable of swallowing sword energy."
"This is definitely not an ordinary Rumble-Rumble Fruit!"
On another island, several pirates were already lying on the ground.
The Thunder Dragon had not yet gotten close.
The force of the pressure from above made it impossible for them to stand firm.
"Retreat immediately!"
"The island is shaking too!"
"If that dragon crashes down, the entire island will be destroyed!"
Shiki had no time to deal with his men.
The dark Thunder Dragon was already upon them.
The Observation Haki continuously issued warnings.
If he were to take that blow head-on, he would be severely injured, even if he didn't die.
"You think you can defeat me with one move?"
"It's still a hundred years too early!"
Shiki raised both legs at the same time.
The Armament Haki on Oto and the Kogarashi surface deepened rapidly.
Golden sword energy surged wildly from the two Famous Sword.
"Lion Valley!"
The twin swords fell.
Dozens of sword energies were unleashed simultaneously.
The second round followed immediately.
The third round.
Shiki's legs didn't stop.
Oto and the Kogarashi turned into two afterimages.
A massive amount of golden sword energy surged forth, layer upon layer, pressing down on the dark Thunder Dragon.
boom!
The first wave of sword energy landed on the top of the Thunder Dragon.
The Thunder Dragon opened its mouth and shattered several sword energies, its massive body pausing for the first time.
More sword energy followed closely behind.
Every sword strike landed in the same spot.
The black scales kept bursting open.
Black Lightning and golden sword energy clashed together.
The sky was split in two by two forces.
On one side was a jet-black Thunder Dragon that kept advancing.
On the other side, there was an endless expanse of golden sword energy.
Shiki held nothing back.
His Haki and physical strength were constantly channeled into his twin swords.
"Smash it for me!"
Oto and the Kogarashi struck down again.
Hundreds more sword energies were unleashed.
The Dark Thunder Dragon finally couldn't withstand the pressure.
The dragon's head split open from the middle.
Black Lightning erupted in all directions, engulfing hundreds of golden sword energies around it.
Boom!
The entire sky shook violently.
Black and gold light intertwined and diffused.
Several nearby floating Sky Island were hit by the aftershocks.
The edge of the island collapsed on the spot.
A large number of rocks fell from a height of 20,000 meters.
Pirates on the island fell down in droves.
Someone is clinging to the tree trunk.
Someone is clinging to the rock face.
Many more people lay flat on the ground, too afraid to look up.
"It's blocked!"
"Captain Shiki has blocked that Thunder Dragon!"
"But how much sword energy did the captain use?"
"That Uchiha Xin only used one strike!"
After the last sentence was spoken, the surroundings fell silent.
Shiki's Lion, Thousand-Cut Valley, was torn apart head-on.
He then unleashed his full power with Lion's Roar: Valley of Ten Thousand Cuts, unleashing a massive amount of sword energy to neutralize the Thunder Dragon.
It is quite clear who has the upper hand.
Shiki stopped moving.
His chest heaved.
Sweat beaded on his forehead.
His recent bursts of energy have taken a toll on his stamina.
He stared intently at the Black Blade Yoru Uchiha Xin's hand.
"Little brat."
"What kind of Devil Fruit did you eat?"
"Space, lightning, and that darkness that can devour sword energy."
"It's impossible for one person to possess so many Devil Fruit abilities!"
Uchiha Xin held the Black Blade Yoru horizontally in front of him.
You have too little experience.
It's normal not to understand.
Shiki's face darkened.
This time, he didn't call Uchiha Xin" little brat" again.
The dark Thunder Dragon he had just seen had completely made him abandon his contempt.
On Enies Lobby.
Lucci stood atop the building, his pupils contracting.
After the black Thunder Dragon appeared, even though he was 20,000 meters away, he could clearly see the two figures in the sky.
Kaku looked up and stared at Shiki.
"Long golden hair."
"A ship's rudder is stuck above its head."
"His legs were replaced by two Famous Sword."
There can't be any mistake.
He is Golden Lion Shiki!
Jabra turned his head abruptly.
"That legendary pirate who escaped from Impel Down?"
"Hasn't he disappeared for many years?"
Kalifa adjusted her glasses.
She was holding the reward notice that had just been delivered to her.
"The other person is Uchiha Xin."
"The first bounty of one billion Beli."
"The one who killed Gecko Moria, Crocodile, and Admiral Candidate Momousagi."
The Fukurou opened its beak wide.
"Chirp chirp!"
"A legendary pirate, a rising star with a billion-dollar bounty!"
Why were they fighting over Enies Lobby?
Blueno looked at the building that had been cleaved in two by the sword energy.
Their battlefield wasn't originally here.
"They fought all the way to the skies Enies Lobby."
Kumadori tightly to your cane.
"That black Thunder Dragon could even tear apart Shiki's sword energy."
" Uchiha Xin's strength is probably even greater than what's written on the bounty poster."
Lucci did not speak.
His gaze remained fixed on the sky.
Shiki is a legendary pirate who is on par with Roger and Whitebeard.
The Navy once deployed Garp and Sengoku to capture him.
However Uchiha Xin has fought him for so long, and not only has he not been at a disadvantage, but he has also forced Shiki to go all out.
The combined strength of both sides has exceeded CP9's ability to handle the situation.
Just as the group continued to watch the battle, a soldier rushed over.
"Lord Lucci!"
"Commander Spandam orders you to return to the Tower of Justice immediately!"
Jabra frowned.
"Why would we go back at a time like this?"
The soldier was panting heavily.
"The commander is worried that the aerial battle will affect the Tower of Justice."
He ordered all members of CP9 to go and protect him.
Lucci's face was full of disdain.
"A useless piece of trash who only knows how to hide behind his subordinates."
The soldier lowered his head, not daring to speak.
Kalifa put away the bounty poster.
"He's his superior, after all."
"The order has been issued; we have no choice but to execute it."
Lucci took one last look at the sky.
"Walk."
The CP9 members left the edge of the island and headed towards the Tower of Justice.
The battle in the sky did not stop.
Shiki raised one hand.
The power of the Float-Float Fruit soared through the sky and fell into the sea below.
Enies Lobby, a large amount of seawater suddenly rose.
Dozens of whirlpools appeared on the sea surface.
Streams of water shot into the sky.
Under Shiki's control, the seawater continuously condensed, transforming in the blink of an eye into hundreds of enormous lion heads.
Each lion's head has its mouth wide open.
The teeth formed from seawater bit towards Uchiha Xin.
"Lion's Might - Earth Strike!"
Shiki waved his hand.
Hundreds of water lion heads lunged out simultaneously.
Everything in all directions was blocked off.
Each water lion head contains the power of the Float-Float Fruit.
Once bitten, the seawater will close in from all sides, completely trapping the target.
Uchiha Xin glanced at it.
