One Piece: Rayquaza of the Beasts Pirates

Since that's the case, let's try a different approach!

With a thought, Kane abruptly extinguished the raging lightning in the clouds, replacing it with a cold, pure white light.

It was countless tiny ice crystals frantically condensing.

A biting cold wind swept across the land without warning.

"Ouch, it's so cold." Violet shivered and instinctively hugged her arms. "Isn't it summer?"

"Could it be..." Speed ​​looked up at the sky, thinking that perhaps only Lord Kane could do something like this.

Unlike the others who felt uncomfortable, Yamato squinted his eyes comfortably, a smile playing on his lips: "So comfortable. Kane had this move all along?"

As the user of the Big Mouth True God Fruit, she loves this kind of cold weather the most.

On the icy plains, Hawkeye instantly discerned Kane's intentions.

"Hmph, trying to numb my senses with this level of cold? Kane, you underestimate me!"

He stood proudly, his black blade poised to strike.

Of course, that's not all.

Kane didn't think that the cold wind, which could only make Violet shiver, would have any effect on Hawkeye.

We must increase the investment.

"Frozen Wind!"

A cold wind, no, a freezing storm, howled down from the high sky.

Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo

Where the storm passed, the air emitted a piercing shriek, and the moisture was instantly stripped away, turning into a dense hailstorm that pelted down.

In just a split second, a terrifying freezing storm engulfed the area where Hawkeye was located.

Ka!

The world's greatest swordsman instantly transformed into a crystal-clear ice sculpture.

But the destructive freezing air did not stop; like a rolling white wave, it continued to surge and rush into the distance.

The powerful freezing air swept across the sea, instantly refreezing and reinforcing the floating ice floes.

Even the Sky Piercer and Baratie, which were watching from afar, were not spared. Their hulls were firmly frozen to the sea surface by thick ice, and frost covered the sides of the ships.

boom!

The ice sculpture shattered, and Hawkeye emerged from the ice. He moved his slightly stiff wrist; although it was not obvious, it was still frostbitten.

In this round, he was at a disadvantage.

In a duel between masters, even the slightest injury can become a fatal flaw.

"Not only are they multifaceted, but their power is also considerable?"

Hawkeye's fighting spirit did not die down; instead, it burned even more intensely.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him.

Kane transformed into his orc form and landed on the icy plains.

Boom! The ice surface shattered instantly where he landed, and the enormous impact even overturned the huge block of ice beneath his feet!

The black and red Conqueror's Haki coiled around his body like wildly dancing lightning snakes.

Kane transformed into a streak of green light and charged toward Hawkeye.

"slam!"

"Try this move of mine, Mihawk!"

Kane roared.

"bring it on!"

An unprecedented glint flashed in Hawkeye's eyes as he gripped the Black Blade Night tightly with both hands.

On the blade, equally ferocious black and red Conqueror's Haki leaped and hissed wildly.

Then, he swung his knife fiercely.

The next instant, man and knife clashed.

However, the anticipated cataclysmic collision did not occur directly.

There seemed to be an invisible barrier between the two, with their violent and domineering auras clashing and squeezing each other wildly. At the center of the conflict, a small point, like a black hole, suddenly appeared.

The domineering lightning, which had materialized, burst forth and raged in all directions like a flood bursting its banks.

The ice layer, like a fragile biscuit, was instantly torn apart, leaving countless ravines.

Huge blocks of ice were thrown high into the air by the shockwave, then crashed down, splashing up countless water droplets!

Two imposing black and red lightning bolts shot into the sky and crashed into the clouds.

The thick, dark clouds that had been blocking out the sun were actually pierced by these two powerful beams of light.

It was as if a curtain had been suddenly pulled back.

Just moments ago, the world was completely dark, but suddenly a patch of light appeared.

The sun has reappeared in the world.

The warm sunlight once again shone upon this ravaged sea.

"The sky... the sky has cracked open." Sanji's voice was hoarse; he had lost count of how many times he had been so shocked that he was speechless.

"Does Hawkeye know this move too?" Yamato wrinkled her nose, a sense of urgency rising within her.

I need to work harder in my cultivation, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with Kane's pace.

The center of the battlefield.

The violent shockwave finally dissipated.

Hawkeye was slammed into the turbulent sea like a cannonball, while Kane was violently thrown into the air by the huge recoil.

Kane tumbled several times in the air before finally regaining his balance. He looked down at the churning sea below and smiled knowingly.

"As expected, Mihawk is shrouded in Conqueror's Haki."

Although Hawkeye's Vivre Card didn't indicate Conqueror's Haki in his past life's memories, it's easy to imagine that a man with the title of the world's number one would be strange if he didn't have Conqueror's Haki.

Are you spacing out?

Almost the instant Kane's thought flashed through his mind, Hawkeye's roar rang out, and a black blade came hurtling towards him.

Kane, showing no weakness, swung his claws to meet the attack.

boom!

The massive shockwave exploded in a ring shape, creating a huge ocean wave.

The two were thrown apart again by the immense force, each landing on a piece of floating ice shards.

At this moment, Hawkeye no longer possessed the elegance he once had.

He was soaking wet after being knocked into the sea. Behind his signature black top hat, a wisp of white down clung to his neck, and seawater dripped continuously from the brim.

However, his sharp, hawk-like eyes burned with an even more intense light than before.

"Again?" Kane licked his lips, revealing an excited and wild smile.

This was the first time he had encountered such an evenly matched opponent.

The two are roughly equal in terms of the intensity of their domineering presence.

In terms of pure strength, he has a slight advantage, but in terms of offensive sharpness, Hawkeye is undoubtedly superior!

“Of course.” Hawkeye also raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a hearty smile.

Although Kane is not a swordsman, this kind of evenly matched battle, pushing his skills and will to the limit, is a long-lost enjoyment for him.

The last time he had this feeling was when the red hair brought it to him.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Before the words were even finished, the two figures shot out again like cannonballs.

The black blade and black claws collided, separated, and collided again amidst the shattered ice plains and surging waves.

Each collision unleashed a thunderous roar and a massive shockwave.

The once calm East China Sea now seems to have transformed into the most turbulent sea in the new world.

Even something as massive as the Sky Piercer was like a lone boat in a storm amidst the terrifying aftershocks, completely out of control.

Fortunately, both of them deliberately avoided the direction of the Rayquaza and the Baratie during the fierce battle.

Otherwise, it's questionable whether those two ships even exist now.

"They can actually fight to this extent?"

Violet clung tightly to the violently rocking gunwale, struggling to steady herself, her eyes fixed on the battlefield, not wanting to miss a single moment.

"Kane will definitely win," Yamato said confidently.

"Why?" Violet asked.

She thought Yamato had noticed some detail that she didn't know.

"Because he's Kane!" Yamato said, hands on his hips, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

“I knew it.” Violet pouted helplessly. “I really don’t know what kind of spell Kane cast on you.”

After saying that, she refocused her attention on the battlefield, silently praying for Kane's victory.

In the center of the battlefield.

In just a few minutes, Kane and Hawkeye engaged in dozens of clashes powerful enough to split mountains and seas.

The two separated again, each landing on a larger ice floe, their chests heaving violently, their breathing becoming heavy.

"How about the final blow decides the outcome?" Kane laughed.

"I couldn't ask for more." Hawkeye's lips curled into a smile.
