One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

"Dragon Claw!"

"Lion - Cross Storm!"

The jet-black dragon claws collided violently with two famous swords crossed in a cross shape.

An unimaginable force surged through the famous sword, causing the Golden Lion's pupils to suddenly contract!

What terrifying power!

Sizzle—!

He was thrown dozens of meters away uncontrollably, and only after the two famous swords under his feet carved two long grooves in the ground did he barely manage to stabilize himself with the power of the Float-Float Fruit.

In the contest of strength, the Golden Lion was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

Pfft!

Two streams of blood gushed out of his nostrils like an out-of-control red fountain.

Immediately afterwards, bright red blood began to seep uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes, ears, and mouth.

He looked utterly miserable.

They could practically be cast as gruesome corpses in horror movies; no makeup needed.

The golden lion frantically tried to stop the bleeding, his face looking extremely pale.

Overusing domineering tactics has ultimately come at a price.

At this moment, his head began to throb violently, and he could no longer ignore it.

The golden lion instinctively covered its head tightly with its hands.

Ever since that damned ship's rudder was inserted into his brain, it has not only brought him occasional hallucinations and torment, but the pressure on his nerves has also rendered him unable to mobilize the power in his body, causing his domineering aura to decline day by day.

If this intense fighting continues, he might really die here...

Should we give up?

The Golden Lion looked up at the young figure in the distance who seemed unsatisfied and expecting him to continue his attack, and clenched his teeth tightly.

Are you kidding me?!

I am Shiki the Golden Lion!

He was a man who once rivaled Roger and Whitebeard for the title of the sea king!

Bowing down and admitting defeat to a greenhorn?

Absolutely impossible!!

Kane, in the distance, slowly clenched his fists, feeling the power within him that was about to burst forth but was firmly held back, and couldn't help but shake his head regretfully.

He could sense that he was only one step away from awakening, and that step would open up a vast and boundless future.

But taking that step is incredibly difficult.

How exactly did Doflamingo awaken his powers?

I've already tried my best to chew on the meteorite.

Just as the thought flashed through his mind, a red light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and his Observation Haki gave him an extremely dangerous warning.

Kane suddenly looked up.

The golden lion in the distance slowly floated up again, but this time, it did not rush to attack.

He raised his hands, gripping tightly the corners of the rudder embedded in the skull on either side, and strained with both arms.

"Ughh ...

With a heart-wrenching roar, he actually began to forcefully pull the cabin, which had become one with his brain and flesh over the years, upwards!

The intense pain made his vision go black, and he almost fainted.

But he persevered through sheer willpower.

The process of pulling out the rudder proceeded slowly but steadily!

It was only a dozen seconds, but it felt like centuries.

A grotesquely shaped, round ship's wheel, stained with dark red blood and brain tissue, was slowly pulled from his head.

pat!

The shackles that had plagued him for years, causing him countless painful entanglements, were casually tossed to the ground by the Golden Lion with a dull thud.

Even the well-traveled Kane couldn't help but slightly shrink his pupils upon witnessing this utterly insane scene.

"I must say, Mr. Golden Lion, you are a truly ruthless person. No, a werewolf."

As for?

They're working so hard.

How long can you live if the ship's rudder is removed so simply and crudely?

Seemingly hearing Kane's thoughts, the Golden Lion used his life force to forcibly seal the wound and blood vessels in his head, disregarding the consequences, while revealing a blood-stained, ferocious sneer: "I'll use these last three minutes of my peak performance to completely kill you!"

Do you think you're Ultraman?

The three-minute limit has been introduced.

Kane internally ranted, but his body instantly went into high alert, his muscles tensed, and his domineering aura flowed through his entire body without reservation.

At this moment, the Golden Lion was undoubtedly going into overdrive, truly using its life as fuel to achieve this brief but terrifying burst of power!

Faced with this situation, none of the villains who refused to believe in evil had a good ending.

He has extensive experience with this principle.

puff!puff!

Immediately afterwards, as if pulling up a radish, the Golden Lion suddenly pulled out the famous swords Kureki and Sakura Ju that were serving as prosthetics under his feet and held them firmly in his hand.

With two swords in hand, the Golden Lion's aura suddenly changed.

That arrogant and domineering aura made Kane feel as if he had been transported back to more than twenty years ago, to the era that belonged to the Flying Admiral!

"This time... I should really be able to get what I want!"

Kane's eyes narrowed.

The fighting spirit reached its peak.

The two famous swords in the Golden Lion's hands turned completely black, and the domineering black and red lightning, like a ferocious beast breaking free of its shackles, roared and wrapped around the two swords.

Sure enough, even the Golden Lion knows this trick.

Or rather, it would be strange if the Golden Lion at its peak didn't.

A domineering color envelops it.

"Lion's Might - Ring Break!"

The golden lion's figure suddenly blurred, approaching Kane almost instantly.

His arms were bulging with muscles as he raised the twin swords, which contained destructive power, high above his head, and then spun around at high speed with his body and the blades!

The twin blades then drew a perfect circular slash, striking Kane from every angle.

"Well done! Dragon Claw!"

Kane neither dodged nor evaded, but instead used offense as his defense!

The dragon claw instantly turned pitch black, and a similarly violent black-red aura wrapped around it.

boom!!!

In the next instant, the two top-tier Conqueror's Haki clashed violently!

Countless black and red lightning bolts, like uncontrolled raging dragons, burst forth from the point of their clash, wreaking havoc.

The already ravaged land let out another mournful cry of unbearable burden, as several layers were forcibly scraped away!

The entire island even began to shake, as if it were about to disintegrate at any moment.

And the sky, as usual, cracked open.

However, a slight sense of regret crossed Kane's mind as he stood at the very center of the storm.

He's weaker than Kaido, Mr. Golden Lion.

But thinking about it, it's normal. It's been so many years since the Golden Lion has used his Haki like this, so it's only natural that he's regressed.

It's already a miracle that it has recovered to this level of strength.

The Golden Lions lacked Kane's "leisurely pursuits".

The moment they clashed, the overwhelming power of the Conqueror's Haki transmitted through the twin blades sent a jolt through his heart!

This kid's Conqueror's Haki... is actually even higher than his?!

But even so.

You want me to admit defeat?

No way!

"Lion·Senkiriya!"

The golden lion gritted its teeth and roared, almost from the depths of its throat!

His arms transformed into countless afterimages, unleashing a barrage of dazzling, incomparably sharp golden flying slashes that swept towards Kane like a destructive storm, blotting out the sky.

"Useless! Air Blade!"

Kane stood still, his claws moving rapidly, countless sharp blades formed from the air launched from his claws, detonating each of the incoming golden slashes in mid-air.

Even during this process, Kane reminded him with great interest, "More than a minute has passed, Mr. Golden Lion."

The golden lion's breathing became noticeably heavier. Although his attacks were fierce, his exhaustion from forcing himself to keep going was no longer concealed.

"Shut up! The remaining time... is enough to take you down!!"

The aged lion roared in resentment, but a trace of weakness deep within its voice was clearly discernible.

Suddenly, without warning, the golden lion stopped its frenzied attack.
