Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

Wood doesn't believe Big Mom would be uninterested in his underworld businesses if one of them were to die.

Alliance? That's just a bunch of nonsense for kids. How many pirates on the high seas are truly trustworthy?

Wood swung his sword at Big Mom, but Napoleon blocked it. Wood's ungrateful behavior thoroughly enraged Big Mom.

"Zhenyu Lei!"

Big Mom reached out and made a grasping motion, and purple lightning gathered in her hand, quickly forming a horizontal beam of lightning that swept towards Wood.

This move is very similar to Kaido's previous dragon breath attack, but it's a horizontal energy pillar attack. The only difference is that Kaido uses fire, while Big Mom releases lightning.

"Hyakki Mitsurugi-ryu - Attribute One-Sword Style - Phoenix Fire!"

Facing the horizontal onslaught of lightning, Wood gripped the Heavenly Dry Blade tightly. Dense fire-attribute magic was released from the blade, turning it completely crimson.

“Clang——!”

With a sound like a bird's cry, a huge phoenix radiating terrifying heat spread its wings and flew out the instant Wood's longsword struck.

The phoenix, with its fiery wings, trailed a long, clearly defined fiery tail in the air before crashing headfirst into the lightning unleashed by Big Mom.

The collision of flames and lightning caused a huge black energy ball to appear in the sky. After the energy ball expanded to its limit, it exploded, creating a tsunami that was hundreds of meters high.

The exploding lightning electrolyzed the seawater, forming large amounts of hydrogen and oxygen. What happens when this comes into contact with flames?

The answer is the triggered physical reaction, which will directly cause a massive explosion of unprecedented scale.

Wood moved rapidly amidst the explosions, using a combination of "Shave" and "Moonwalk" to avoid the effects of the blasts on him while simultaneously closing in on Big Mom at an incredible speed.

Although Big Mom also uses a sword as a weapon, she is clearly not a "sword master" or anything like that. Her strength mainly lies in her Devil Fruit ability and her innate superhuman strength.

Even if she wasn't a "sword master," with her terrifying innate divine strength, she could still unleash slashes that were as devastating as those of Zeus and Prometheus combined.

But a "sword master" is not only good at slashing; swordsmanship and combat skills are also essential qualities of a sword master.

If Wood can force Big Mom into close combat, he is confident that with the power boost from the Heart of God, he can use his superior swordsmanship to suppress Big Mom.

Zeus, despite having Big Mom's flying ability, was clearly not as agile in the air as Wood's "Moonwalk." So, after a few blinks, Wood's figure broke through the smoke of the explosion and appeared directly in front of Big Mom.

Wood, wielding the sword with both hands, unleashed a rapid series of slashes at Big Mom, just as he had predicted.

BIG MOM is a power-type fighter, not a skill-type fighter. Although she is very strong, she can only parry Wood's extremely fast and continuous slashes.

No matter how strong one's Observation Haki is, the body must be able to keep up with one's consciousness. No matter how strong one's Armament Haki is, it cannot withstand a continuous barrage of attacks.

"Powerful drum!"

"Stolen Fire!"

Faced with Wood's continuous high-speed slashes, Big Mom could only retreat while parrying. Seeing that Big Mom was no match for him, Zeus and Prometheus also broke free from Big Mom's control and launched their own attacks on Wood.

Zeus and Prometheus were both Hortmi, possessing unique souls and their own consciousness, and thus could launch attacks against enemies on their own.

However, as "Hozmi," they can attack on their own, but only Big Mom, who ate the "Soul-Soul Fruit," can unleash their full power.

Seeing the lightning bolts Zeus spat out and Prometheus charging headlong at Wood, Wood switched to gripping his sword with one hand and quickly unfurled a blue magic circle in front of him with his other hand.

"Emperor-level Water Magic: Water Dragon Whirlwind Dance!"

A violent and turbulent torrent of water shot out and quickly condensed in the air into a ferocious-looking water dragon, which then crashed headlong into the lightning spewed by Zeus and Prometheus.

Thunder could have neutralized the water and electricity, but Zeus's own "Drum of Power" clearly lacked the electrical intensity to evaporate Wood's hundred-foot-long water dragon.

The lightning struck the rushing water, and due to its conductive properties, it vanished into the torrent like a mud ox sinking into the sea, leaving the water dragon now imbued with powerful electric sparks.

And this enhanced package was soon experienced by Prometheus, who crashed headlong into it.

Even Horzmi has a physical form and its own attributes, while Prometheus, whose power is fire and whose form is also fire, undoubtedly hates water the most.

The enormous water dragon charged in, and Prometheus, who was about to crash into it, didn't even have time to react before his body was swallowed whole by the water dragon.

The water, carrying lightning, instantly gave Prometheus a full-body electric shock, and quickly launched him away, sending him hurtling toward Zeus at incredible speed.

Big Mom intended to stop the Water Dragon's actions, but before she could make a move, she was forced to raise her sword to block Wood's slash once again.

In the end, the roaring water dragon carried Prometheus and crashed into Zeus's body, creating a large hole.

As we all know, Big Mom's ability to fly was undoubtedly due to the thunderclouds that Zeus transformed into.

At this moment, the thundercloud was pierced by the water dragon, and Zeus could no longer support Big Mom's huge body, which caused Big Mom's body to fall downwards at high speed.

However, to Wood's surprise, as Big Mom was falling, she showed an unexpected reaction, grabbing Wood's ankle in an instant and violently throwing him out with her arm.

Zeus, whose body had been blasted open by the water dragon, quickly recovered and completed a high-speed spiral in the air before plummeting down to catch the falling Big Mom.

However, Wood, who was thrown away by Big Mom, endured the powerful wind pressure and unleashed another wind blade slash, cleaving Zeus's body in two once more.

"boom------!"

How strong is Big Mom's physical strength? If Wood really had to describe it, he felt that the legendary giant Oz was probably just as strong.

Wood, who had been grabbed by the ankle by BIG MOM and violently thrown out, felt as if he had been hit by a speeding armored vehicle with an ordinary body.

With a deafening roar, Wood's body flew backward and landed on the ground, but with his back to the ground, he carved a huge trench in an island that almost split the entire island in two.

The rocks and trees along the way offered almost no resistance to Wood as he flew backward, and were smashed to pieces!

As for Big Mom herself, she wasn't in much better shape either, because Zeus had just been cleaved apart again by Wood's "Kamaitachi," so he couldn't successfully take down Big Mom.

Its plummeting form created a huge splash on the sea surface.

When Zeus and Prometheus regained their original forms and dragged Big Mom to an island, Big Mom, though not incapacitated, was temporarily weakened due to being submerged in seawater.

So everyone watching was stunned by what they saw.

The Big Mom Pirates, in particular, were baffled. Wood, the traitor from the Navy, had clearly teamed up with Mom to severely injure Kai and was obviously on their side. Why would he suddenly turn against Mom and attack her?

Could it be that the Navy traitor Wood's goal is not only to defeat Kaido of the Beasts, but also to take down two Emperors of the Sea here?

In the past, most people present would probably have thought Wood was delusional. But after witnessing the recent intense battle, they suddenly realized that they had been underestimating the strength of this naval traitor.

Many people at sea used to think that Wood was able to get along so well at sea simply because of his connections and advanced weapons technology.

While there are rumors that he is second only to the Four Emperors and the Three Admirals of the Navy, most people don't take them too seriously.

After all, Wood, as the behind-the-scenes boss of Wood Arms Company, rarely makes a public appearance, so many people believe that most of the rumors about Wood's strength are just hype.

Since it's an arms deal, you can't get ahead in this industry without a formidable reputation.

But through today's "Battle of the Four Emperors," everyone present finally understood that the entire ocean had underestimated this man.

This isn't just below the "Four Emperors" and the "Three Admirals of the Navy," this is definitely at the level of the Four Emperors!

Originally, it was a battle between two Yonko, Big Mom and Kaido, and no one present was supposed to get involved. However, this traitor from the Navy not only interfered but also fought the two Yonko to a standstill.

Judging from the previous actions of the "Sweet Commanders" against Kaido, the so-called Three Sweet Commanders, Three Disasters, and even the Seven Warlords of the Sea are no different from children in front of a big shot like the Four Emperors.

Wood's ability to intervene in the battle between Big Mom and Kaido, and even inflict some injuries on both of them, clearly puts him in a position far beyond what the so-called "Seven Warlords of the Sea" can match.

Even in a one-on-one situation, Wood might not be able to defeat Kaido or Big Mom, but he could at least remain undefeated.

From this perspective, Wood is now technically a "Four Emperors" level fighter.

"clang------!"

As Kaido's spiked club clashed with Wood's Heavenly Dew, the island they were on instantly split in two once again.

Before the two retreating figures could even catch their breath, Big Mom's powerful attack enveloped them both, completely destroying the island in the process.

What was originally supposed to be a duel between Big Mom and Kaido has turned into a three-way free-for-all after Wood intervened.

After enduring Wood's slash and Big Mom's beam cannon, Kaido, thanks to his absurd vitality, not only did not die, but also did not lose his ability to fight.

After taking a big gulp of wine, Kaido has retained his Zoan-type Devil Fruit "Beast Man Form".

Anime-type ability users in this state can not only use the abilities of Zoan Devil Fruits to a certain extent, but also maintain a humanoid form.

Although Big Mom experienced a brief period of weakness after being soaked in seawater, she quickly recovered.

Of the three, Wood, who initially seemed to have the most advantage, is now in the most disadvantageous position.

When he was violently thrown out by Big Mom before, his body actually plowed a small island in two.

Wood, who didn't possess Kaido's seemingly immortal physique, felt as if all the bones in his body had fallen apart in an instant.

Although the healing magic circle engraved on his body provided immediate healing and restored his combat ability in time, it did come at a cost.

On the surface, Wood seems to possess both Kaido's regenerative abilities and Big Mom's innate superhuman strength, making him appear incredibly powerful.

But only Wood himself knew that those people had special physical constitutions that they were born with, while his own strength came at a price.

(I forgot to update again today... Oh well, no one's chasing me anyway (╯﹏╰))

Its regenerative and vitality are comparable to Kaido's, which comes from the healing magic circles engraved on its body, but each use requires a large amount of magic power.

As for the physical strength that rivals that of Big Mom, it comes from the power of the "Heart of God".

Magic power is finite, and so is the lifespan consumed by the 'Heart of God'.

Big Mom could maintain this high-intensity battle with Kaido for more than half a month, but could Wood do it?

The answer is naturally no. Perhaps by relying on the power of the "Heart of God" and magic, he could briefly rival the Four Emperors, or even gain the upper hand in battle.

But if the battle drags on and Wood fails to defeat his opponent, then he will surely be the one to die.
