Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

[Chapter 247 Flowing Blade Like Fire]

In an instant, a scorching "heat breath" swept across the sky, like a powerful force that could burn and evaporate everything, rushing towards Hancock.

If this strike hits head-on!

Even with the Blackwing Demon's superhuman regeneration ability, Hancock might not survive if her head and heart were damaged.

"I'm sorry, Lord Yarrow, I seem to have disappointed you..."

As the "heat breath" drew near, Hancock, whose bones were now more than 70% broken, murmured apologetically.

"I haven't even repaid Lord Arn's kindness yet, but I'm going to let him down."

"I'm so unwilling to accept this..."

"Besides, I haven't even explained my feelings to Lord Arn yet..."

Just then, a somewhat hoarse and deep voice suddenly rang out.

"Slay him with a stroke!"

Suddenly, a towering fiery sword swept out from behind Hancock, slicing through the "heat breath" that could easily evaporate and destroy mountains as easily as cutting tofu.

"boom!"

In an instant, as the two completely different flames intertwined and exploded, rolling heat waves spread out in all directions in a ring shape.

"who?"

As Kaido's dragon eyes swept across the area, he noticed a man wearing a similar straight-cut white trench coat and a bone mask who had appeared behind Hancock at some point.

That strike that just shattered the "heat breath" was released from the sword held in that man's hand.

After Yann shattered the "Heat Breath," he instinctively tried to catch Hancock as she flew backward, but he quickly withdrew his outstretched hand.

Just kidding...

Hancock was sent flying by Kaido's dragon tail; the sheer amount of momentum involved is unimaginable.

If Yann were to overestimate his abilities and try to catch Hancock, it's not impossible that he would be knocked unconscious by the immense inertia the moment he arrived at the designated battlefield location.

Can't answer, can't answer...

Whether it's to avoid the awkward situation of "appearing and shattering Heat Breath, then being knocked unconscious by Hancock," or for the sake of his own health and life, he cannot accept the challenge.

Therefore, Yann could only coldly ignore Hancock flying backwards, and did not forget to move his body a few meters to the side to avoid being hit by Hancock.

"Whoosh..."

In the next instant, Hancock sped past Yann like a high-speed train, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

However, Hancock felt a warmth in her heart at the sight of Yann's actions, which contained boundless tenderness beneath his coldness.

Even though Yann didn't show his face, and even though his voice was completely different from usual, Hancock was certain that it was Lord Yann.

At the crucial moment, it was Lord Yan who stepped in to protect me!

As for why Lord Yan didn't catch him, perhaps he understood that most of his bones were broken and that catching him rashly would only worsen his injuries.

Furthermore, Lord Yan probably wanted to use this method to leave this dangerous battlefield as soon as possible.

After all, Lord Yann had said that he must leave as soon as possible after Yann appeared.

This...could this be love?

Even though Lord Yone didn't say anything, Hancock felt as if she already understood Lord Yone's intentions perfectly.

With Yann blocking the "heat breath," Hancock had a brief respite. Under the full power of "Super Regeneration," Hancock quickly regained her mobility.

Without hesitation, Hancock spread her black wings and quickly departed in the opposite direction from Yann.

"Hey, Blackwing Demon, who gave you permission to leave...?"

Kaido, whose attention had been drawn to Yann, saw that Hancock was about to disappear from sight and, with his imposing figure circling around, tried to give chase.

however……

"All things in the universe turn to ashes. Flowing Blade Like Fire!"

In just a moment, the Soul-Slaying Blade in Yann's hand suddenly erupted with unparalleled scorching flames.

"Burn the city walls and ramparts!"

Immediately, Yann waved his "Ryujin Jakka" in its Shikai state, and scorching flames roared towards Kaido, trapping Kaido's transformed blue dragon form in mid-air like a wall.

"You think this little flame is enough..."

Kaido's previously nonchalant voice abruptly stopped as he sensed the intense heat of the flames.

A thousand degrees?

Three thousand degrees?

No, it's at least over 6,000 degrees!

Kaido looked down at his scales, which had been scorched by the flames and turned into jet-black scales, and was utterly shocked.

"Who are you?" Kaido's solemn voice rang out.

"Just an ordinary old member of Hueco Mundo."

Yann answered in a deep, aged voice.

“Originally, I didn’t want to damage this ocean anymore, but you little worm seem to have gone too far. It’s permissible for members of Hueco Mundo to kill each other, but a little worm like you is not worthy to kill members of Hueco Mundo.”

"A mere reptile?! I'm not worthy of such a title?"

Being addressed so condescendingly by Yann ignited Kaido's anger.

"Very well, do you think this little flame can trap me?"

"Tornado!"

The next moment, Kaido unleashed the power of his Azure Dragon form once more, with a massive hurricane sweeping across the sky, and dark clouds beginning to shroud the heavens, with lightning striking intermittently.

"To change the celestial phenomena so easily? It truly lives up to its name as the Azure Dragon."

As Ya'en watched dozens of hurricanes appear out of nowhere and tear apart the "burning city walls," creating a scene of natural disaster with darkness and lightning, he calmly commented.

……

At this moment, dozens of miles away from the battlefield between Yann and Kaido, countless pirates who were hesitating about whether the war was over and whether to leave suddenly noticed the unusual celestial phenomenon at the edge of the sky.

"Is the battle still ongoing?"

"No, this celestial phenomenon suggests that Kaido has fully unleashed the power of his Azure Dragon form. Perhaps the real battle is only just beginning."

"Impossible, right? That Blackwing Demon was chased away by Kaido just now, he's clearly no match for Kaido."

"Wait, that doesn't seem impossible, after all... no one knows exactly how many members Hueco Mundo has."

!!!

Many pirates.

Immediately, many pirates who loved watching the excitement became interested and turned their ships around to head towards the direction where the celestial phenomenon had appeared.

……

At this moment, beneath a layer of pitch-black clouds, as Kaido transformed into his azure dragon form, a massive hurricane capable of easily flattening mountains surged forth and swept towards Yann.

Furthermore, lightning bolts would occasionally strike down on Yaen from the sky.

Clearly, Kaido spoke with utter contempt for Yann, but amidst the scorching flames exceeding six thousand degrees, Kaido felt threatened!

[Chapter 248: The Scorching Hell]

As the hurricanes that could tear him apart in an instant approached, Yann tensed up and spoke a few words.

"Little crawler, is this all the trouble you can cause?"

"Crack!"

Almost the instant Yaen finished speaking, several bolts of lightning struck Yaen's head from the sky.

However, after the light flashed...

Yaen appeared completely unchanged, as if he had withstood the thunderbolt with his own physical strength, without even losing a single hair.

This scene even filled Kaido with surprise.

That was real thunder!

Even if Kaido himself were struck by a natural lightning bolt of up to a billion volts, he might not be seriously injured, but his body would inevitably be paralyzed.

Normally, how could a normal organism not be affected at all?

Physical strength... can it reach this level?

Unfortunately, what Kaido didn't know was that during his previous battle with Hancock, Yann had already taken precautions based on the information about his abilities that had been revealed.

Among them, the lightning attack that Yaon fears the most and that he usually has no time to react to or dodge is something that Baby-5 can completely solve.

Under the power of "Devour Hollows," the white trench coat that Yone is wearing now may look no different from the other Hueco Mundo members, but in reality, it has the insulating properties of rubber.

In other words... Thunder immunity!

The next moment, as Yann faced the approaching hurricane, the Blazing Blade he held in his hand, which was always burning with raging flames, suddenly surged up.

"Scorching Hell!"

Dozens of towering pillars of fire suddenly appeared, their power to incinerate the air itself, instantly reducing hurricane after hurricane to nothingness.

At that moment, though only a fraction of an instant had passed, Kaido suddenly felt as if he were in a hellish place surrounded by endless flames.

heat!

The temperature in the entire space is rising rapidly!

Immediately, the dozens of towering pillars of fire converged on Kaido from all directions as Arn pointed.

Dozens of towering pillars of fire converged together, their terrifying temperature causing the air to visibly distort. The ever-compressing power reached a critical point...

At this moment, everyone within a hundred miles instinctively looked in that direction, watching the fireball that was constantly expanding under the dark clouds.

then……

It exploded with a bang!
