Chapter 116 Killing the Sister in His Arms
Chapter 116 Killing the Sister in His Arms
Behind the wooden Buddha, a thousand hands, shrouded in thick Armament Haki, clenched into fists and launched simultaneous attacks in two directions.
As Kedra was fleeing, he looked back and saw countless Buddha fists raining down on him like a shower of flowers.
Knowing he couldn't escape the Buddha Fist's attack range, he simply stopped running and adopted a desperate stance.
"I was already famous before the time of Lox! Back then, you were probably still drinking milk somewhere!"
As he spoke, he wrapped all of his Armament Haki around his two iron fists.
"You brat! Don't look down on me!"
"Today I'll show you the strength of a veteran powerhouse!!"
Kedra leaped up and shattered the first descending Buddha fist with a single punch.
Then, his fists rained down like a storm, shattering one Buddha fist after another.
"Ora ora ora ora..."
bang bang bang bang...
Wood chips flew everywhere as dozens of Buddha Fists were successfully shattered by Kedra.
Kaido watched this scene with icy eyes.
Because he needs to evenly wrap Armament Haki around 1000 Buddha hands, the "thickness" of Armament Haki in a single Buddha fist is indeed no match for the full-force wrapping of Kedra.
but--
"You can smash a few dozen, but what about 500?!"
Armament Haki is naturally consumed; otherwise, there would be no need to rest and recover when Haki is depleted.
Therefore, after Kedra had done his best and successfully shattered 90 Buddha Fists, he failed to shatter the 91st Buddha Fist.
The Armament Haki wrapped around his fist and the Armament Haki wrapped around Kaido's Buddha Fist had reached a strange balance.
No one is stronger than anyone else, so it's impossible for one to defeat the other.
"It's over..."
Staring at the massive, undamaged Buddha fist in front of his own fist, time seemed to stretch out infinitely in Kedra's eyes.
"This time, we're really going to capsize in the gutter..."
As a veteran powerhouse who had been active before the era of Lox, Caldera had never really had any ambition.
Using her Devil Fruit powers, she goes around harming beautiful men and women.
The main reason he came to Lubo Island this time was that he felt he was too old to work and wanted to earn some money for his retirement.
With Luigi Arno's formidable strength renowned throughout the underworld, coupled with his cooperation, victory would be virtually guaranteed unless it was one of the world's top fighters like Whitebeard, Shiki, or Roger.
He never underestimated even Kaido, his rival.
However, as it turned out, he ultimately underestimated Kaido's strength.
"This brat... is a monster even more terrifying than Whitebeard and the others..."
Boom boom boom boom boom...
The 91st Buddha Fist pressed him to the ground, followed by 409 more.
Because the damage was so severe that Kaido also included Ruki Arona's three subordinates in his attack range.
After a deafening roar that made the earth tremble slightly, the entire group of four was reduced to invisible mincemeat.
Kaido was still not satisfied with this, so he opened his mouth and spewed out blue fire dragon breath, igniting all the debris left after the 500 Buddha Fists exploded.
A raging blue flame shot into the sky, and Kaido breathed heavily.
After all, this move involved wrapping 1000 Buddha hands, each 50 meters in size, with Armament Haki, which almost completely drained Kaido's Armament Haki.
Then turn your head to look in the other direction.
Lugi Arno, who transformed into a tree-man, successfully evaded the direct bombardment of Kaido's 500 Buddha Fists by using the technique of separating his body and regenerating it elsewhere.
"Trying to kill a Logia-type user with pure ability power is really difficult..."
However, Lugi Arno had also expended a lot of energy in the previous battle, so Kaido successfully gained a short break.
He turned to look at Bakkin, who had shielded Machima from the sneak attack.
How are you?
"No...it's nothing..."
With trembling hands, Bakkin pulled out the white tentacle that had pierced her abdomen.
She did not bleed or develop any penetrating wounds, but her body continued to tremble.
"Kaido... Kaido..."
Bakkin turned around, her voice trembling.
Two small pink hearts appeared in her beautiful sapphire blue eyes.
"Even though I'm fine... but... I couldn't hold back..."
She pounced on Kaido and reached out to grab him.
Kaido was quite helpless about this, but he still activated his ability and shrunk his body to 2 meters tall.
Upon seeing this, Bakkin immediately climbed onto Kaido's body like an octopus and clung to him tightly.
Then I let out a long, satisfying sigh.
Kaido took a deep breath, slipped his hands under Bakin's armpits, and patted her on the back.
"Life force, absorb!!"
The persistent drizzle that covered the entire island was draining the life force from everyone on the island who wasn't a member of the Beasts Pirates.
Previously, Kaido had stored this life force in the clouds in the sky, but now—
His head transformed into a blue dragon, its mouth raised to the sky.
The emerald green life force that had been stored in the clouds immediately transformed into a streak of light like the aurora borealis, converging towards Kaido's dragon mouth.
Not only that.
Many pirates, bounty hunters, and slave hunters are currently fighting against the Beasts Pirates.
Large wisps of emerald green light, like life force, also emanated from them, converging towards the dragon's mouth atop the Buddha's head.
Slurp...
After absorbing all the available life force, Kaido's condition returned to its peak, and his abundant stamina gave him almost inexhaustible energy.
"Let's begin the third round, Lugi Arno!!"
Kaido let out a shout, while Bakkin clung tightly to him.
Luigi Arno's face flushed red, feeling deeply humiliated.
"How dare you fight me in this manner?!"
"Ugh... If you can't even defeat someone like this, you're practically dead!!"
"You brat!!"
Lugi Arno, enraged, transformed once again into a giant tree-man 50 meters tall.
No, this time it's not just 50 meters, it's still getting bigger.
At that moment, the giant wooden Buddha bent down and stretched out its huge hands, firmly grasping the tree-man who had grown to 100 meters tall in its palms.
Dark blue Armament Haki coiled around the Buddha's hand. At that moment, Lugi Arno suddenly realized that he could no longer regenerate from other parts of his body through "elementalization".
Realizing this, he decisively activated his abilities on the surrounding environment.
The branches of giant trees rise from the ground, forming a 500-meter-tall giant tree man.
Then, behind the tree man, tree trunks twisted together to form a fist.
Although he wasn't as numerous or as large as Kaido, he successfully imitated Kaido's skills.
However, Kaido's decision to let him use his powers without doing anything wasn't entirely unfounded.
He uttered a soft whisper again.
"Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands - Top Transformed Buddha - Three Thousand Buddha Fist!!"
rumbling...
Besides the giant Buddha statue that Kaido is currently standing on, another thousand-armed Buddha rose up from the ground in each of the other three directions.
The dark blue Armament Haki followed the vines connecting the four Buddhas and successfully wrapped around the thousand hands of the other three Buddhas.
"Your time to die is here! Luigi Arno!!"
