One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 161 Heavenly Justice! Lightning Release: The Roar of the Kirin

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The night sky above Dock One seemed to be torn apart by an invisible hand.

However, what is most unsettling at this moment is not the towering waves of the water gods.

Instead, it was the terrifying thundercloud that was gathering at the top of the Carrera headquarters building, spinning wildly, compressing, and changing color.

In front of the broken French windows.

Viktor's raised right hand resembled a lightning rod.

The blinding lightning chakra in his palm shot straight into the sky, creating a mysterious resonance with the raging lightning of nature.

His face was expressionless, except for his two scarlet Sharingan eyes with three tomoe.

Illuminated by the constantly flashing electric light, it flowed with an eerie and dangerous glow.

"What...what kind of power is this?!"

Inside the room, Rob Lucci, who had transformed into his leopard-man form, had his originally cold and ruthless beast eyes suddenly contract violently.

His carnivorous instincts were screaming alarm bells in his mind—

escape!

Run away!

Staying here will kill you!

"Dissipate with the thunder..."

Viktor's voice was eerily calm, piercing through the howling wind and rain, echoing clearly in everyone's ears.

"Zzzzzzzzz!!!"

Guided by the lightning, the dark clouds in the sky slowly twisted and deformed.

Amidst the intertwining of countless electric snakes, an enormous, ferocious, and terrifying lightning beast head emerged from the clouds.

It has the head of a dragon, the body of a horse, and its entire body is composed of the purest high-voltage blue-white lightning, exuding an aura of world destruction.

That is the legendary mythical beast—the Qilin.

"roar---!!!"

The Thunder Beast opened its massive jaws and let out a deafening roar.

This roar made all the glass in Water City tremble, as if it were the wrath of a god.

"The name of this technique is... Qilin."

Victor's arm swung down sharply, like a hammer of judgment:

"fall!!"

"Get out of the way!!!!"

Lucci let out a heart-wrenching roar, the first time in his life he had ever lost control like this:

"That's an attack on the scale of a natural disaster!! Humanity can't withstand it!! Everyone scatter!!"

However, it was too late.

The moment this technique was created, the outcome was already predetermined.

From the moment the Qilin poked its head out to its dramatic fall, only a fraction of a second elapsed.

This is a divine punishment that surpasses the limits of human reaction and even exceeds the predictive speed of "Observation Haki".

"BOOM—!!!!"

There is no process.

Only results matter.

A blinding white light instantly engulfed the field of vision.

Immediately following was a deafening roar that seemed to shatter eardrums.

In that instant, the entire Carrera Corporation headquarters building was completely engulfed by this terrifying lightning bolt, which was tens of meters in diameter.

Solid stone walls, heavy oak floors, luxurious furniture...

Faced with this destructive force from nature, it was like paper, instantly collapsing, shattering, and vaporizing.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

The electric current surged wildly through the air, and the intense heat instantly evaporated the rainwater.

White steam mixed with black smoke, forming a small mushroom cloud that rose from Dock One.

……

a long time.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated under the onslaught of the storm.

The once luxurious and grand president's office is no more; in its place lies a charred ruin.

Only a few broken load-bearing columns stood there forlornly, wisps of smoke rising from them.

"Cough cough..."

The ruins were in complete disarray.

Kalifa, the only female member of CP9, is currently lying on the edge of a huge pit.

Her once-proud black fishnet stockings and uniform were now tattered, revealing skin that was shockingly charred black.

Her eyes rolled back, and she had already lost consciousness. Even the thorn whip in her hand had been melted into a lump of scrap metal by the high temperature.

Not far away.

"Puwah—!!"

Kaku, with his long nose, knelt on one knee and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

He braced himself on the ground with his two famous swords, which he used for defense.

But at this moment, the two sharp blades that had accompanied him for many years had broken cleanly in the middle, their blades charred and curled.

"What...what kind of sorcery is this...?"

Kaku was trembling violently. If he hadn't used the highest-strength "Iron Block" to protect himself at the last moment, he would probably be a charred corpse by now.

And in the heart of the ruins.

Rob Lucci was still standing.

But his once majestic leopard-man form now looked incredibly pathetic.

The leopard's beautiful fur was badly burned, emitting a foul, acrid smell.

His right arm hung limply at his side, clearly broken or with a torn muscle.

Blood streamed down his forehead, staining his eyes, which were filled with shock and fear.

Even he, who is known as "the strongest in CP9 history".

After taking a direct hit from this S-rank Lightning Release technique, it was already at its limit.

"Huff... huff..."

Not far away, on a pile of rubble, Viktor knelt on the ground, panting heavily.

His face was as pale as paper, and his right hand was still trembling slightly, a backlash from the overdraft of chakra and the guidance of natural lightning.

But the red light in his eyes had not yet gone out.

Viktor raised his head, looked at the shaky CP9 members, and roared:

"Luffy!! Zoro!!"

"Now!!!!"

This roar awakened the Straw Hat crew's main force, who had just been stunned by the power of the Kirin.

"Ohhhhhhh!!!!"

From the shadows of the ruins, two figures burst forth like cheetahs.

Luffy was protected by Victor the whole time and was not affected by the lightning strike.

At this moment, his pent-up anger finally erupted.

"Rubber, rubber—"

Luffy stretched his arms back to their limit, his Armament Haki hardening instantly, his fists seemingly bearing all the anger of being wronged and the worry for his comrades.

He set his sights on Lucci, who, despite being severely injured, still exuded a threatening aura.

"Rocket launcher!!!!"

"Nataru-ryu Iai————"

On the other side, Zoro held his sword in a reverse grip, exuding a sinister aura.

Although he was missing a knife, his imposing presence remained undiminished.

He aimed at Kaku, who had just coughed up blood, and his body transformed into a streak of light.

"Rashomon: Demon Slayer!!!!"

"Damn it..."

Lucky's pupils contracted, as he tried to dodge.

But the lightning strike had fatally dulled his nerves, leaving his body paralyzed and unable to move.

"Bang!!!!"

"Pfft!!!!"

Two muffled thuds sounded almost simultaneously.

Luffy's palms slammed solidly into Lucci's chest.

The immense impact shattered Lucci's last iron-clad defense, and the sound of his sternum cracking was clearly audible.

Zoro's blade mercilessly slashed at Kaku's back, splattering blood—a wound so deep it revealed bone.

"Ughhhhh!!"

Lucci and Kaku screamed simultaneously as their bodies flew backward like kites with broken strings.

The two crashed violently into the remaining wall behind them, shattering it into pieces.

"Cough...cough cough..."

Lu Qi collapsed in the rubble, vomiting blood, his once powerful aura instantly weakening.

He struggled to lift his head, looking at Luffy and Zoro closing in, as well as Victor with his cold eyes.

Even someone as cold-blooded as him felt a chill run down his spine at that moment.

Lost.

If we don't do something, CP9 will be wiped out here tonight...

These pirates... are not ordinary rookies at all, but a group of monsters in human skin!

"call……"

Lu Qi took a deep breath, squeezing out the last bit of potential from his body.

"shave!"

His figure disappeared again.

"Watch out!!" Victor shouted.

But he did not attack anyone.

Lucci's goal is—

"ah!!"

A gasp of surprise.

Robin, who had been standing to the side, stunned by the battle, suddenly felt a tightness around her neck.

Lucci's intact left hand gripped Robin's slender neck like an iron clamp, lifting her up and using her as a human shield in front of him.

"Don't move!!!!"

Lucci's voice was hoarse and frantic, carrying the ferocity of a cornered beast:

"If she takes another step forward... I'll crush her throat!!!"

Luffy's steps faltered, his fist hovering in mid-air, his teeth clenched: "Despicable!! Let Robin go!!"

Zoro also stopped his sword strike, his brow furrowed.

"Hmph...Despicable?"

Lu Qi leaned against the wall, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, a cruel sneer on his face.

He slowly pulled a golden Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

The Den Den Mushi was pure gold, with a red button on its back.

The moment I saw that thing.

Robin's already pale face completely lost its color, and her eyes were filled with endless despair.

"Golden Den Den Mushi..." Robin said, trembling.

"That's right."

Lucci stared at Victor, his eyes filled with apprehension and threat:

"As long as I press this button... the 'Buster Call' will be activated."

"Ten top-tier warships and five vice admirals will wipe this island... along with you, completely off the map."

"You are strong... but can you stand against the military power of the entire world government?"

deadlock.

Fearing the consequences and threatened by the Buster Call, the Straw Hat crew had no choice but to stop.

"A smart person."

Taking advantage of this brief stalemate, Lucci gave a look to Kaku, who was struggling to get up.

Kaku understood immediately and, despite the excruciating pain, carried the unconscious Kalifa on his back.

"Storm Kick - Kaito!"

Lucci kicked out suddenly, and the blue slashing wave shattered the floor beneath his feet, revealing a large hole leading to the external waterway below.

"Walk!"

Lucci, holding Robin, and with Kaku and Kalifa in tow, jumped into the large hole without hesitation.

"Robin!!!" Luffy shouted and rushed over, but only managed to grab the hem of Robin's fluttering clothes.

woohoo-

Outside the broken opening, there was a raging storm and roaring waves.

Lu Qi's cold voice, mingled with the sound of wind and rain, echoed eerily from the darkness below, carrying boundless hatred:

"The Straw Hat Pirates..."

"We'll be waiting for you on Enies Lobby."

"That place is one of the three major institutions of the World Government, the Island of Never Sleeps, and... a hell that you can never cross."

"Want this woman back? Then come and die."

The sound gradually faded into the distance, eventually disappearing into the roar of the towering waves.
