Konoha's Mission Master

Donom was somewhat surprised by Yakumo's sudden attack. His muscles were already exhausted from the repeated attacks, and logically, the enemy should be in the same state.

Doesn't he need time to adjust his state?

Could it be that the enemy's physical strength is superior to ours?

Despite having many questions, Donom still seized the time to defend himself, gathering all his Armament Haki into his right fist.

"Stop it!!!"

This time he finally admitted that he was inferior to the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor, but he still did not believe that the enemy could kill him, after all, the most important characteristic of Zoan-type Devil Fruits is their strong vitality.

The blade sliced ​​through Donom's jet-black Armament Haki, instantly cutting through the surface of his fist. Just as he sensed something was wrong and was about to retreat, a sharp pain surged into his mind, leaving him frozen in place.

This is a power that Yakumo has never shown before.

Yakumo turned the blade around, raised it, and beheaded Yakumo in one stroke.

Water droplets rained down, completely soaking Yakumo's black hair. The water flowed down her hideous, blood-red armor. Yakumo reached out and slowly sealed Donom's headless corpse with the Yin-Yang Absolute Seal.

A few meters away, an old man in a white suit was using Moonwalk to walk through the air, and Yakumo sensed the unique aura of a Celestial Dragon on him.

Donom has achieved his goal.

But he also paid for it with his life.

The old man did not shout, nor did he show much anger in his eyes. He simply gazed quietly at Yakumo... without making the first move.

"I can't defeat you on my own, and they can't stop you from taking the Heavenly Gold. We've lost again."

His inner reaction was far from as relaxed as he appeared. Although he was slightly stronger than Donom, the difference wasn't that great. If the enemy could easily deal with Donom, they could easily deal with him as well.

The moment he saw Donom die, he decided on his next strategy: to delay as much as possible and avoid fighting.

After all, he wasn't as ambitious as Donom; he just wanted to protect himself as much as possible and use his accumulated collection to provide a better environment for his children to grow up in.

Yakumo remembered that the silver-haired old man in front of him was named Carellit Saint, who was also a strong member of the Celestial Dragons. What puzzled him was that he hadn't made a move during the previous two attacks on Mary Geoise.

"Aren't you going to make a move?"

On the surface, Yakumo asked questions, but secretly began to manipulate the crimson vines to expand around him, creating coordinates for spatial movement.

"I don't like to fight pointless battles."

Carlisle waved his hand dismissively, appearing rather lazy, and his features made him look more like a kind and amiable old man.

But his sin value is as high as 20,000!

What bloodshed, what a sin!

Yakumo could no longer resist the urge to draw his sword. If he were to kill him, the progress of the quest for the Proof of the Overlord would increase significantly!

"What if the stakes in this battle are your life?"

"Then I have no choice but to fight with all my might!"

"Iron Body - Ultimate Technique - Immortal Barrier!"

A strange ripple reverberated through Carlisle's muscles, which became visibly harder and gleamed with a metallic sheen.

He did not consume any fruit, but was a master of physical techniques, having mastered the Six Styles of Profound Truth, which had reached its peak.

Swish, swish, swish, swish!

Yakumo created countless shadow clones, their golden phantoms flashing as they attacked Carlisle simultaneously.

"Finger Pistol - Ultimate Technique: Thousand-Flower Unfading!"

Carlisle made a lightning-fast move, his arm leaving many afterimages in the air, which from a distance looked like pure white flowers blooming.

As the shadow clones gradually disintegrated, Carlisle's white suit also became quite damaged, losing its former elegance and affability.

The two were like tireless machines, exchanging hundreds of blows in just a few seconds. Yakumo's main body was not injured, but most of his shadow clones had withered away, and a gap had appeared in the encirclement.

"It's no use! If you can't break through the defenses... you'll have no chance at all. Right now, your companions have already packed up all the Heavenly Gold. Why don't we just stop here, go our separate ways, and go home?"

Carlisle distanced himself, watching Yakumo with some wariness. The previous attacks had been evenly matched, more like a test before the formal battle. Although the clones that attacked from all directions were amazing, they were somewhat lacking in attack power.

In the distance, Yuuki Chiyuki broke free from the warship that had been transformed into a sea of ​​fire, and joined forces with Shyvana to fight against Aokiji.

It should be said that Aokiji has been suppressed.

Yakumo has achieved his goal and it is time to retreat. If he continues to drag things out and it leads to support from other powerful figures in the World Government, things will turn out badly.

"Your words make sense. Shall we all go our separate ways?"

"it is good!"

The two turned and left in different directions. Carlisle's muscles were already in that special state, and he clearly hadn't let his guard down against Yakumo.

In Carlisle's perception, Yakumo's location was moving away.

From thirty meters to fifty meters, to one hundred meters...

Up to 500 meters.

Only when Yakumo disappeared from Carlisle's perception did he finally breathe a sigh of relief, and he ran quickly towards Machijou, his legs treading on the air.

That's right. He has given up on regrouping with the main force and plans to return directly to the Holy Land, using the excuse of reporting the news to temporarily retreat.

Under the cover of night, Yakumo's body vanished from its original spot and reappeared behind Carlisle, whereupon Fuma immediately slashed down!

The time spent using shadow clones to exhaust the enemy wasn't just for the purpose of exhaustion; the real goal was to leave the Flying Thunder God mark on Carlisle.

They launched a surprise attack the moment he lowered his guard.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Knowing that Yakumo possessed the ability to teleport, he naturally guessed that Yakumo planned to launch a sneak attack, so he was on guard from beginning to end.

The so-called relaxation of vigilance is nothing but an act.

Carlisle also wants to kill Yakumo to gain the reward of extended lifespan!

His previously loose muscles tensed instantly, and he spun 360 degrees in mid-air, his fist slamming directly at Yakumo, with red and black lightning crackling around it.

"Finger Pistol Technique: Asura!"

This is the Conqueror's Haki he's been hiding!

The fist was incredibly fast, and the gale it brought before it even landed made Yakumo feel like he couldn't open his eyes. It was as if the surroundings had been turned into a mud pit, making it impossible to move an inch.

"Wrathful Sun - Extreme Blade Slash!"

The pure white blade in Yakumo's hand suddenly seemed to have been melted by the high temperature. The blade twisted and blurred, and even more violent flames burned on it, emitting a series of explosions.

The terrifying heat spread outward out of control, followed by an incredibly blinding light. At this moment, Yakumo felt as if he were holding a miniature sun in his palm.

The gems on the Glory Sword Box have dimmed again, which is a normal sign of the energy being drained.

As the blade fell, the surrounding sky was illuminated as if it were daytime. Everyone instinctively stopped fighting, retreated, and looked up at the scene in the sky.

Carlisle realized that even before the enemy's attack arrived, he was already heading towards death. His once full muscles became withered, and many wrinkles suddenly appeared on his face.

"What kind of power is this?"

When the blade struck, Carlisle had no water left in her body and had even lost the ability to dodge or resist. More solar fire burned her, completely incinerating her and leaving no trace.

This is the domineering power of the sun's fire!

The light gradually faded, and night fell once more.

Yakumo transformed into golden light and dissipated into the air.

Chapter 360 Proof of Domination: Heading to the New World

Even after the daylight faded, the air remained scorching hot.

Although the golden figure disappeared, the sun's lingering power still covered the surrounding space, and a large amount of seawater evaporated, forming clouds and mist.

A night wind swept across the sea, and fragments of wooden planks floated on the surface, bobbing up and down and colliding with each other, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

Before the surrounding powerful figures could even react, several golden beams of light spread out, and Yakumo quickly retreated with his companions.

In a very short time, the battle had come to an end.

The group reunited on the dark green airship, all of them basically unharmed; the few minutes of fighting had not injured them.

Yakumo continuously increased its flight altitude and quickly retreated from this location.

At the moment Carlisle was killed…

Yakumo sensed an incredibly powerful Conqueror's Haki rapidly rising in the distance, that kingly aura emanating from Mary Geoise.

In the blink of an eye, we traversed hundreds of miles.

It directly affects Yakumo's heart.

That kingly aura…

It was so vast that it seemed to have no boundaries, and so powerful that it inspired fear.

The moment Yakumo sensed this will, he confirmed that there was a huge gap in strength between the two.

He almost immediately led a few people to retreat quickly.

In a few flashes, that will seemed to transform into a tangible giant hand, reaching out into the air... attempting to restrict the movement of the dark green spaceship.

At this moment, Yakumo actually felt fear, as if every cell in his body was trembling in the face of this will, and his subconscious urged him to run away immediately.

Yakumo instinctively chose to follow her heart.

The dark green airship broke free of its restraints at an extremely fast speed, and blood-red vines secured everyone to the deck of the airship. The gale-force winds pounded against the wooden structure, producing a sharp screeching sound.

Under his influence, the dark green spaceship shot through the air like a meteor.

Protected by the flying boat, everyone escaped unharmed. After a few seconds of pursuit, the giant hands gave up, like a gathering cloud suddenly dispersing and turning into tiny stardust scattered in the air.

The invisible Conqueror's Haki seemed to have taken form.

"Now is not the time to seize the opportunity."

Yakumo's figure emerged from the surface of the airship. He still needed time to accumulate power. When the Soul-Soul Fruit completed its super awakening... when the Wood Release: Transformation progress broke through twenty, then... even if Im was strong, he could still fight!

This time he didn't pass through Mary Geoise, after witnessing its vast and boundless majesty...
