Two Realms: Hunters and Pirates

Almost at the same time.

A miniature portal appeared above Doflamingo's head.

The fist shot out with a bang, aiming straight for his crown.

Shield white line!

Several beams of steel shot up rapidly, crisscrossing each other to block the iron fist.

Boom!!!

The violent impact generated a powerful shockwave.

A large number of threads were broken by the shock.

But with the white waves constantly replenishing, Iron Fist was unable to break through, and it was even on the verge of being entangled by the extending threads.

The decision was made to withdraw decisively.

The fist and arm retracted into the spatial gate.

Instead of returning to the white wave of lines, the crisscrossing bars rose up, instantly weaving a massive defensive net around Doflamingo.

It is clear.

Zane's attack using the Door-Door Fruit ability made Doflamingo extremely vigilant, and he dared not be careless in the slightest.

"They're definitely not easy to deal with!"

Inside the doorway, Zane frowned as he looked at the heavily guarded Doflamingo outside.

Given the current battle situation, and being inside the doorway space, he seems to be in an invincible position.

But in reality.....

Paramecia are not Zoan types.

Prolonged periods of arousal do indeed place a significant strain on physical strength.

But he was no different.

Spending a long time inside the doorway also took a toll on his physical strength.

So, do I need to enable the disabled mode?

"If that's the case, it's just too boring!" Zain chuckled softly.

If his only goal was to win, why didn't he just turn on the ban mode from the start?

If his Devil Fruit powers are disabled, his chances of winning will definitely be much greater.

He didn't do that not because he coveted the String-String Fruit, but because he used Doflamingo as a whetstone and also wanted to measure himself.

What are we measuring?

Of course, it refers to one's own level in the world of One Piece.

Doflamingo's strength is at a mid-level among the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

It is also above average in the entire One Piece world.

While they can't be compared to the Four Emperors or Grand Admirals, they are still worthy of being called silver medalists.

If he can defeat his opponent with true strength, then Zain will be able to make better judgments when venturing out on the high seas in the future.

A portal appears.

However, he did not reappear near Doflamingo.

Several tens of meters away.

Zane strolled out from the opened portal.

The appearance of the portal was immediately noticed by the vigilant Doflamingo.

Have you given up?

When Doflamingo saw Zane emerge from the portal, he felt a chill run down his spine.

After a series of battles, he had lost the composure he had when he arrived and now regarded Zane as a formidable enemy on the same level as himself.

White lines surged like waves.

Although he didn't know why Zane had distanced himself from him, Doflamingo wouldn't let his guard down.

Haiyuan·Hakubo!

White waves spread to Zane's feet, surging and churning like a raging giant wave, threatening to lift him up and entangle him.

Wings of Steel!

He leaped into the air.

Two metal wings, made of countless iron feathers, extended from Zane's back, one on the left and one on the right.

The wings are hidden inside a dense network of tiny pores, each containing a small fan.

Powered by the Spin-Spin Fruit, the fan emits a powerful airflow from its tiny holes, making the heavy metal wings exceptionally light, allowing Zain to fly freely in the air.

Flying is an innate dream of humankind.

The same goes for Zain.

Therefore, after obtaining the [Steel Body], he developed the Steel Wings that allowed him to fly freely, based on the ability of this power to change form.

A Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart - Feather Strike - Thread!

Doflamingo, who originally intended to use his String Waves to restrain Zane, immediately changed his attack strategy upon seeing that Zane possessed the ability to fly.

With both arms swinging out in unison, countless threads wrapped in Armament Hide color shot out wildly in the shape of flamingo wings.

A barrage of arrows! Spinning wings!

During the on-site learning session, Zane calmly unfolded his steel wings in the face of an approaching flamingo.

With a flap of its wings.

Because they were also part of itself, countless arrows were controlled by the Spin-Spin Fruit and shot out in a rapidly spinning motion.

Arrow feathers, imbued with Nen and Armament Haki, transformed into the shape of wings.

Boom boom boom~~~

The flamingo collided with the wings of flight.

The sharp threads either slice through the arrow fletching, or the spinning fletching tears the threads.

Sparks flew constantly during their amazing clashes.

In terms of power, the Wings of Flight are superior.

After all, with the help of the Spin-Spin Fruit, the spiral arrows have extremely strong penetrating and tearing power.

Therefore, arrows often have to shred a dozen or so threads before being blocked.

However, in the actual confrontation, Winged Flight was at a disadvantage.

the reason is simple.

The numbers are too disparate.

The awakening of the String-String Fruit gave Doflamingo seemingly an endless supply of threads.

With a continuous stream of supplies, the flamingo forcefully shattered the wings of flight, and then continued its relentless assault on Zane.

Door-Door Fruit - Absolute Defense!

With a raised hand and a slight press, a massive spatial portal appeared.

Amidst the frantic crashing sounds, the flamingo was intercepted by the spatial gate.

No matter how many threads collide, they cannot break through.

Spread your wings and soar high.

As the portal blocked his path, Zane leaped up from behind, his wings unleashing a violent gust of wind, and he swooped down towards Doflamingo like a meteor.

Super Whiplash!

He swung his right hand behind him.

Numerous threads wrapped around the thick rod, then stretched continuously before snapping back, shooting out like a white beam of light from Doflamingo's hand.

boom!!!

Zane, who was swooping down, did not dodge. His metallized right arm spun at high speed, directly intercepting the white beam of light with a punch, carrying the momentum of his descent.

The two immediately collided in a surprising manner.

Amidst the deafening roar, a visible shockwave swept out.

A fist and a steel rod sparked a dazzling burst of light.

The high-speed rotation undoubtedly adds an extremely terrifying spiral force to Zane's fist.

After a brief stalemate, the top of the bar was shattered like a flower blooming.

"This is...."

Doflamingo's pupils contracted as he stared intently at Zane's spinning right arm.

He wasn't frightened by Zane's attack, but rather he noticed traces of the Spin-Spin Fruit on Zane's spinning right arm.

Although he was shocked, Doflamingo had no time to think about it.

Seeing that the Super Whip was losing ground, he immediately unleashed a beam of energy from his left hand.

More powerful than a whip!

Compared to the Super Whip, the Super Whip is slightly smaller in size and power, but it is faster to activate.

"Not enough!"

As another beam of light approached, Zain's eyes narrowed.

Aggression is like fire, turning the tide and burning cannons!

【回天】To gather strength.

The blazing flames coiled around his right arm like a tornado.

boom!!!

A terrifying crimson shock burst forth from his fist, not only annihilating both pillars of energy, but also blasting towards Doflamingo with tremendous force.

Danger!

Doflamingo's expression changed as he sensed the Crimson Impact using his Observation Haki, immediately recognizing a danger that could threaten his life.

Super Shield White Line!!

The surging white waves beneath their feet rose up and transformed into a massive white shield.

Boom!!!

The heatwave was intense.

Amidst the deafening roar of the bombardment, crimson shockwaves slammed into the white shields.

Layers of air waves radiated outwards, stirring up the void in all directions.

Pressing forward.

The white shield dented inwards.
