One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

However, just a few seconds later, Prometheus's arrogant voice turned into a terrified scream.

"Mom! Something's wrong! I...I can't burn him!"

"My strength is also slipping away!"

It could clearly sense that its flames had not caused the giant any harm at all, but had instead become his ally.

The other party is using its power!

"Hmm...it's quite warm."

Loki's comfortable, even slightly languid voice came clearly from the blazing flames.

Immediately afterwards, a huge arm, wreathed in flames yet completely unharmed, suddenly emerged from the sea of ​​fire, its palm even holding a ball of flame.

The next moment, Loki's arm suddenly pulled back.

The raging flames were rapidly compressed and shaped in his hands, like docile clay, instantly coalescing into a flaming spear.

"Taste the power of your own flames!"

Loki roared, his arm muscles bulging, and with terrifying strength enough to throw a mountain, he hurled the flaming spear at its original owner!

How could a Surtur-type Mythical Zoan user be afraid of mere flames?

boom!

Charlotte Linlin shattered the flaming spear with a single palm strike.

"Zeus!"

"Mom, I'm here!"

Zeus, who had been hovering in the air, responded to the call and instantly flew directly above Kane and his companion.

Its original white color suddenly transformed into the shape of a dark cloud, and bursts of lightning began to surge.

"Thunder!"

Charlotte Linlin waved her hand and gave the order.

A massive pillar of lightning, several meters in diameter and imbued with destructive power, crashed down from Zeus's body, its target Kane below.

Faced with this terrifying lightning strike that was powerful enough to pierce a warship, Kane remained standing with his hands in his pockets, his expression completely unwavering.

He simply called out a name.

Enel.

Just as the lightning pillar was about to engulf Kane, a figure moved with incredible speed, arriving before Kane and blocking the path between them.

"what?!"

Charlotte Linlin stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

The scene she had envisioned—the enemy being turned to charcoal by lightning—did not occur.

The moment Lei Zhu came into contact with that figure, he was absorbed into the other's body without reservation, just like all rivers flowing into the sea!

There was no explosion, no leakage, and not even a trace of extra electric arc was generated!

The thunderous bombardment lasted for a good ten seconds before gradually subsiding.

Having exhausted his inner power, Zeus shrank drastically, reverting to his original form as a simple, white cloud, appearing listless and dispirited.

"Hiccup~"

Enel landed lightly back on the ground, even letting out a leisurely burp, as if he had just finished a feast.

Having absorbed a large amount of Zeus's thunderous power, his body was faintly crackling with electricity, and his size seemed to have swelled up, making him even more imposing.

"Mom, Mom... what do we do now?"

Having suffered repeated setbacks in their attacks, Prometheus and Zeus timidly returned to their master's side.

"Heh~"

Kane, whose clothes hadn't even fluttered from beginning to end, smiled slightly and looked calmly at the person opposite him: "Shall we continue?"

Watching Kane, surrounded by Loki and Enel, remain outrageously calm throughout, Charlotte Linlin's sanity, consumed by food cravings and rage, not only failed to return but became even more frenzied.

She suddenly raised Napoleon, who had transformed into a giant blade, in her hand.

"Elbaf Spear - Mighty Kingdom!"

A massive shockwave of sword energy, like a roaring beast, crashed down on Kane and his companions!

"Seriously... can't you understand human speech at all anymore?"

Kane shook his head helplessly.

At the same time, he casually raised his right fist, which instantly turned as black as ink.

Immediately afterwards, black and red arcs of electricity, like wildly dancing lightning snakes, crackled and coiled around it, emanating a terrifying aura of destruction.

The next instant, the fist was thrown out seemingly casually.

boom!!!

The fist and the giant sword energy collided without any fancy moves!

A deafening explosion instantly engulfed the entire venue!

The terrifying shockwave that erupted from the center of their fight spread wildly in all directions like a tsunami, blowing debris around the arena and making it difficult for spectators in the distance to open their eyes and breathe!

After the storm subsided, the guests looked cautiously toward the center of the battle, and all gasped in shock.

The place looked as if it had been struck by a meteorite, or ravaged by a category 18 typhoon, leaving only a huge crater and a scene of devastation, telling the story of the terrifying power of that attack.

Only Kane and Charlotte Linlin remained in the same spot.

boom!

The rubble beneath his feet exploded, and Kane's figure vanished from the spot.

The next second, he appeared like a ghost in front of Charlotte Linlin's enormous face.

"what?"

Charlotte Linlin's confused mind didn't even have time to react.

A jet-black hand, crackling with dense black and red lightning, bent into a claw and suddenly shot out!

"That's enough, you damn old hag!"

Kane gripped Charlotte Linlin's face, which was contorted with rage, and his right arm muscles bulged, unleashing a burst of immense power!

Charlotte Linlin, who was eight meters tall and resembled a small mountain, was like a light rag doll in the face of this irresistible force. Kane hurled her into the ground with an extremely violent throw!

boom--! ! !

A deafening impact rang out, the ground trembled violently, and dust billowed into the sky!

This is far from over.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A darker and more violent black-red lightning bolt, more intense than before, suddenly exploded outwards from Kane's center, like countless roaring thunder dragons, instantly sweeping across the entire battlefield!

Thick bolts of lightning, carrying an aura of destruction, struck Charlotte Linlin, who lay on the ground, with deafening explosions.

Even the tiny amounts of energy released by these lightning bolts, when they fall onto the surrounding ground, can easily blast open shocking craters!

The power was so terrifying that even the guests far from the battlefield trembled at the mere feeling of its lingering aftershocks, a fear welling up from the depths of their souls, a desire to kneel and submit.

"He's...he's incredibly strong...!"

The guests all swallowed hard, their faces turning pale.

Based solely on the overwhelming power he has displayed at this moment, Calamity Kane absolutely deserves to claim the throne of the Pirate Emperor!

After a while, the overwhelming black and red lightning, which seemed to be about to destroy everything, gradually subsided.

A proud figure still stood tall in the center of the battlefield, his posture upright.

It was as if the earth-shattering attack he had just suffered was nothing more than a casual gesture.

At his feet lay Charlotte Linlin, lying unconscious on the ground.

When they saw what was happening, all the guests were completely dumbfounded, their minds going blank.

Charlotte Linlin... one of the Four Emperors... was defeated just like that?

From the start of the match to its conclusion, it didn't even take the time it takes to eat a meal!

"I'm so incredibly excited!!!"

Morgans was so excited he could barely speak.

He held a photo Den Den Mushi in each hand, using both hands simultaneously.

This exciting scene couldn't be captured by a single photo Den Den Mushi.

Of course, things aren't that simple.

If Charlotte Linlin were so easy to deal with, she wouldn't deserve to be called one of the Four Emperors.

Kane glanced down at Charlotte Linlin, who was lying on the ground, looking slightly disheveled but not seriously injured, and couldn't help but feel a little troubled.

There are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names.

A steel balloon, truly a steel balloon.

Kane knew that before Charlotte Linlin's Conqueror's Haki was completely worn down, even a heavy blow like that could only make her temporarily unconscious for a short while.

As for causing substantial harm?

The fact that Kane's Conqueror's Haki could cause Charlotte Linlin to bleed a little already shows how powerful it is.

In gaming terms, this so-called "steel balloon" is a layer of extremely high fixed damage reduction or super armor.

Based on the exchange and observations just now, Kane deduced that there are theoretically only three ways to completely defeat Charlotte Linlin.

First, exhaust Charlotte Linlin to the point of exhaustion; second, use absolute attack power far exceeding the defensive limit of the "Steel Balloon" to forcibly break through her defenses; third, use a true damage attack similar to that after the awakening of the Op-Op Fruit.

To be honest, the reason he was able to knock Charlotte Linlin unconscious so easily was because she was suffering from a food craving and was in a daze.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to determine a winner without a fierce and prolonged battle.
