Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 254 Joyboy must not be allowed to appear!

boom.

Zoro took a deep breath.

The last of the ghostly energy within his body coalesced into three heads and six arms, resembling a messenger from hell, unleashing the Soul-Devouring Ghost Slash in all directions.

Countless pirates and slaves fell, their lives devoured and reaped by the hideous phantoms of demons and gods.

"Don't be afraid, everyone! The algae-headed guy has reached his limit; he can't even hold the knife anymore!"

"Don't try to take it from me, it's mine!"

A man with a dark beard and two strings of green and purple prayer beads around his neck suddenly raised a knife and charged forward.

Some of the apprehensive people were directly provoked by his words and rushed forward frantically.

"Oh no, is this the end?"

Zoro, exhausted, lay back on the cold floor.

The dream of becoming the strongest swordsman, and the promise made to the deceased, will ultimately be lost forever.

Although it's regrettable, I have no regrets if I can die on the path to becoming the strongest swordsman.

"Is that all there is to it?"

Kaido sat high on the platform, watching the duelists swarm around the two.

Although it was a bit of a pity, he had seen countless supernovas, and neither of them was worthy of his attention.

at this time,

"Zoro, survive!"

A furious roar pierced through the thick walls of the arena and reached everyone's ears.

Covered in blue fist energy, Luffy, whose body swelled up like a balloon, crashed into the center of the arena in a falling motion.

Boom!

The ground collapsed, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

Kaido's eyes widened suddenly as he stared intently at the lingering smoke and the power emanating from within it.

"Conqueror's Haki?"

His qualities, which have earned him the title of king by countless people, are also the key to conquering the New World where pirates roam freely.

Who would have thought that the kid I knocked unconscious with my stick would have such talent?

Inside the arena,

Pirates, slaves, and marines staggered, all stunned by Conqueror's Haki.

"Are you here, Luffy?"

Zoro didn't have the strength to turn his head, but hearing the voice made him feel at ease.

"Luffy!"

Nami's eyes reddened as she looked at the Straw Hat captain who had come to her rescue, feeling a complex mix of emotions.

"Ah, leave the rest to me! Hahaha."

It was clearly a very serious occasion.

Luffy involuntarily laughed, startling Zoro and Nami, who quickly asked, "Are you alright, Luffy? Is your body alright?"

They all vaguely sensed that something was wrong with Luffy, and now, that feeling was even more pronounced.

"I'm fine, trust me, hahaha."

When Luffy spoke, his gaze was sometimes blank and sometimes firm.

It's as if there are two wills within the body, constantly alternating.

These ones,

Sanji saw it all.

Ever since Luffy became aware of Nika's will, his body has undergone astonishing changes.

The Gum-Gum Fruit, which was originally only developed to the second level, developed the third and fourth levels in a very short time, without even experiencing any discomfort.

Military strength has expanded.

However, Luffy's condition also became increasingly strange, and he started to laugh meaninglessly.

If this continues,

Sanji is terrified that Luffy will transform into someone else entirely, like those monsters in the legends who lose their minds after being replaced by the will of Zoan Devil Fruits.

But Luffy just gave him a reassuring look.

Sanji had no choice but to believe.

"Straw Hat brat, are you coming here to die?"

Seeing this, Kaido stood up from the high platform.

Without saying another word, he transformed into a dragon-man, gripped his thorny giant club, and charged into the arena.

boom.

The powerful, swirling Bagua symbol bursts forth with lightning.

Divine Combo Punch!

In Gear Fourth form, Luffy swung his fists, and blue fist energy burst forth with a sharp light, directly intercepting the Thunder Bagua.

"Is it blocked?"

Kaido was especially shocked.

The kid in front of me clearly hasn't even mastered Armament Haki yet, and even if he has Conqueror's Haki, it was triggered unintentionally.

It actually managed to stop my domineering entanglement technique!

"It's not over yet!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Luffy's body, inflated like a balloon, was surprisingly agile.

The Divine Combination Fist consists of three attacks; the first punch was the one that just blocked the Thunderous Bagua.

Now for the next two punches,

The fist, trailing blue flames, slammed into Kaido's abdomen, followed by the strongest punch, which shook the very space around it.

boom.

Kaido flew out and crashed heavily into the city wall, smashing through it.

"Luffy, what's wrong with you?"

Zoro's eyes nearly popped out of his head in shock.

That's Kaido, one of the Four Emperors. Even if they weren't players, they're not figures that these fledgling pirates could possibly contend with.

How did Luffy manage to gain the upper hand in their first encounter?

"Sanji, take them away quickly."

"clear."

Sanji, who had been following behind, silently hoisted Zoro onto his back, picked up Nami, and ran towards the exit of the arena.

His lips moved, and he turned his head as if to speak, but in the end he held back.

"That arrogant brat, he's always like this, spouting nonsense in front of me!"

"The Pirate King isn't something a brat like you, playing house, can become!"

Heavy footsteps sounded.

Kaido emerged from the hole in the city wall, his eyes filled with a fierce light.

It wasn't the anger from being knocked away that made him angry, but rather the sheer obsession with this brat who dreams of becoming the Pirate King.

To become the pirate emperor of this sea,

Kaido has also experienced countless battles. Who hasn't dreamed of becoming the Pirate King?

But what exactly does One Piece mean?

For Roger, becoming the Pirate King meant finding Laugh Tale and traveling the world.

For Kaido, the pirate who seizes the One Piece is qualified to become the Pirate King, which is the highest right.

"Since you want it, then you can have it!"

"The Pirate King you want to be is different from the Pirate King I want to be!"

Luffy said those words without hesitation.

The azure aura of the fist shot straight into the sky.

Haki is a top-tier skill in the world of One Piece, but the advent of the Samsara Game has made it less important.

Luffy comprehends the abilities of the Blue Fist Saint, whose core [fist energy] is even stronger than Haki.

Previously defeated by Kaido,

It was only because of insufficient four-dimensional attributes, but now, Luffy no longer resists and actively accepts the revival of Nika's will, causing the Gum-Gum Fruit to rapidly approach its awakened state.

After the weakness of the four-dimensional attributes was compensated for, it became terrifyingly strong.

"Yeah?"

"This ocean cannot hold two Pirate Kings, so you shall die!"

Kaido leaped high into the air, swinging his iron club repeatedly, and slammed it down towards the target in the center of the arena.

The Three Worlds Descent to Naraku!

The waves of black lightning shattered the entire arena, and the thick walls collapsed completely.

I won't lose.

Neither the game of reincarnation nor the player can be defeated.

Having become the strongest warrior at the age of 10, he wants to create a new world.

But they know an absurd prophecy: only Joyboy, the one destined for them, can create the dream world.

In that case,

If I'm not Joyboy, I'll just become the strongest evil dragon.

Only those who defeat themselves are qualified to create a new world, Joyboy, so I absolutely cannot lose!

Joyboy must never be allowed to appear in this world!
