One Piece: The Emperor-Level Item Master Shocks the World

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the Straw Hat crew all showed expressions of worry.

Luffy rubbed his hands together, eager to get started, and then took two steps forward.

Seeing this, Zoro also placed his hand on Wado Ichimonji, ready to go and help at any time.

However, at that moment, Luffy reached out and stopped Zoro.

"Don't worry, Lei Luo can handle it himself."

Upon hearing this, the Straw Hat crew all looked at Luffy.

I don't understand why Luffy would stand up if he thought that way.

Immediately, Luffy's gaze swept straight to a takoyaki stall not far away.

Seeing the delicious and juicy takoyaki, Luffy's saliva dripped straight down the corner of his mouth.

Upon seeing this, Nami threw a punch straight at Luffy's head.

"What time is it? Still thinking about food? The most important thing right now is how to get out of here!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy nodded directly, but then turned to Nami and said:

"Ah, Nami, give me the money..."

Without a doubt, Luffy once again faced Nami's warning of her merciless iron fist.

Seeing this, Zoro sighed, sheathed his sword, and walked towards the takoyaki stall.

Seeing this, Nami wanted to stop Zoro, but then suddenly remembered that Zoro probably didn't have any money on him.

But soon, Zoro paid for and bought a huge pile of takoyaki.

Smelling the aroma of takoyaki, Luffy opened his blood-red mouth wide and swallowed half of the takoyaki.

Seeing this, Zoro punched Luffy on the head and said:

"Hey, please, leave me some!"

As he spoke, Zoro began to eat heartily.

The Straw Hat crew finally couldn't resist their hunger and started eating as well.

Nami was still wondering where Zoro got his money from.

Just then, Nami suddenly had a flash of inspiration and remembered that Zoro had borrowed 200,000 Berries from her when he wanted to buy a sword.

Unexpectedly, Zoro used the money to buy takoyaki!

Absolutely unforgivable!

Chapter 498 Direct Copy, Empress Shocked!

Thinking of this, Nami grabbed Zoro's face and said coldly:

"Hey Zoro, you had a blast spending my money, didn't you? But don't be stingy when it comes to paying the interest."

Upon hearing this, Zoro simply grinned, his heart remaining completely calm.

Meanwhile, the battle between Lei Luo and the Empress was still ongoing.

The Empress's entire body was covered in Armament Haki.

With Armament Haki and the added power of her Devil Fruit, the Empress immediately kicked out at Lei Luo.

Lei Luo instantly transformed into a cloud of mist, dodging the attack.

The fruit power emanating from the Empress swept over his body, instantly petrifying Lei Luo's clothes.

Lei Luo reacted quickly, immediately using Conqueror's Haki to shatter it.

Then, in a flash, she retreated backward, and at that moment, the Empress stepped into the void and quickly arrived above Lei Luo.

Immediately, a pink shockwave covered the fist.

The shockwave, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, instantly hurtled towards Lei Luo.

Streaks of domineering blue lightning spread outwards, causing the entire Daughter Island to teeter on the brink of collapse.

Seeing this, Lei Luo dared not be careless and quickly activated the power of the Cloud-Cloud Fruit, transforming into clouds and mist.

In order to use Observation Haki, Gen had to transform his body in advance to dodge the attack.

However, the Empress's Observation Haki was on par with his.

With his Observation Haki influencing him, he was completely unable to accurately predict the future.

Lei Luo could only spread his entire body in advance, surrounded by clouds and mist. The Empress's fist pierced through the clouds and slammed into the ground, instantly creating a huge crater.

The deep pit spread outwards, and the surrounding area, spanning dozens of miles, was cracked and deformed.

At that moment, Lei Luo instantly imbued the surrounding clouds with Conqueror's Haki.

Instantly, the surrounding clouds and mist trembled, and streaks of domineering blue lightning pierced through the clouds and mist.

All the residents of Daughter Island rolled their eyes, collapsed to the ground, and fainted.

Upon seeing this, a solemn expression appeared in the Empress's eyes.

This overwhelming color did not cause her any harm.

Although Lei Luo also used the Cloud-Mist Fruit to spread Conqueror's Haki to a wider area.

However, it's different from the Empress directly attaching Conqueror's Haki to a Devil Fruit.

Lei Luo merely used clouds and mist as a medium for dissemination.

The Empress, on the other hand, truly embodies the fusion of Devil Fruit power and Haki, making her significantly stronger.

With this in mind, the Empress used her Observation Haki to quickly pinpoint Lei Luo's location.

Immediately, a red heart appeared in his hand, imbued with Armament Haki, and shot towards Lei Luo.

Lei Luo turned around to dodge, but at that moment, the little red heart suddenly swelled up and enveloped Lei Luo.

Without hesitation, the Empress kicked it, creating a gap in the red heart.

The red heart barrier shattered, and the powerful explosion sent Lei Luo flying.

The area where Lei Luo was injured by the explosion immediately turned to petrification.

Lei Luo wanted to use Life Return again to restore his body, but the Empress did not want to give him that chance.

He then sprinted at the speed of an 800-meter dash and instantly arrived in front of Lei Luo.

Then he kicked Lei Luo in the chest.

Seeing the large area of ​​petrified flesh on Lei Luo's chest, the Straw Hat crew all frowned deeply.

Even Luffy, who was fighting with Usopp for the dumpling, calmed down and watched this dangerous scene unfold.

However, at that moment, the Cloud-Mist Fruit of Rairou suddenly emitted a powerful Conqueror's Haki.

This overwhelming aura of dominance unleashed bolts of lightning that instantly pierced through the Empress's chest.

The Empress immediately clutched her chest, stepped back, and forcefully suppressed the dizziness, looking at Lei Luo incredulously as she said:

"How is this possible? I've only just learned about the concept of combining Haki with Devil Fruits. How could someone so quickly and perfectly integrate Devil Fruits with Conqueror's Haki!"

Upon hearing this, Lei Luo immediately used his life return to restore the petrified parts of his body, then broke through the clouds and landed in front of the Empress.

He said it in a very formal and methodical manner:

“Learning from scratch is certainly slow; it would be much easier if we could just copy and paste.”

Upon hearing this, the Empress was somewhat puzzled.

Thinking that Lei Luo was teasing her, she stepped back, her whole body radiating an aura of dominance.

In an instant, the entire Daughter Island trembled violently, the earth cracked, and the surrounding seawater broke through the dikes, irrigating the island.

Grandma Niu looked terrified upon seeing this.

He must step in now, otherwise a disaster will ensue, and they will perish on their own without the Navy Headquarters even needing to encircle and suppress them.

Thinking of this, Grandma New jumped up and did a 360-degree flip in the air.

With a graceful landing, he stood atop the Empress's shoulder.

Sensing the foreign object, a solemn expression appeared in the Empress's eyes.

Just as she was about to make a decision, Granny New shoved a newspaper directly onto the Empress's face and said:

"Hey, Snake Princess, stop right now! They're your benefactors! Are you going to repay kindness with enmity?!"

Upon hearing this, the Empress looked puzzled and confused.

However, half of his domineering aura has already dissipated.

Immediately afterward, Granny New held the newspaper a little further away, and the Empress's eyes began to focus, seeing the headline of the last article on the newspaper.

The Straw Hat Pirates beat up the Celestial Dragons!

Upon seeing this, the Empress's pupils constricted slightly. She snatched the newspaper and carefully compared it with the appearance of the Straw Hat crew.

Confirmed, these are the heroes from the Sabaody Archipelago who beat up the Celestial Dragons!

Upon seeing this, the Empress's Conqueror's Haki completely dissipated, her eyes glazed over as she looked at Lei Luo, still somewhat disbelieving, and asked:

"So it was you who hit the Celestial Dragons?!"

Upon hearing this, Lei Luo did not hide anything. He immediately dispelled his domineering aura, released the power of the Cloud-Cloud Fruit, and then spoke:

"Ah, that's right, we did it."

“I said I would give you a reason to go to Marineford.”

"That means cooperating with us who fought the Celestial Dragons."

Upon hearing this, the Empress looked somewhat dejected and then turned her head away.

She said with a shy expression:

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now."

Seeing the Empress like this, all the residents of Daughter Island had their eyes light up.
