(Part 2) 14: Chapter 7: Come at Me Together!
Thrashing Sengoku!
(Part 2) Sengoku’s figure expanded rapidly, transforming in the blink of an eye into a giant golden Buddha standing dozens of meters tall.
His eyes shone as brilliantly as the sun and moon, and a holy halo radiated around his massive frame.
Zoan Type, Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Model: Daibutsu!
“Take this!” The golden Buddha’s right arm suddenly swelled, instantly coated in Armament Haki as black as ink.
Like a colossal mountain of steel, it smashed down toward Alex.
Before the fist even made contact, the sheer wind pressure fractured the ice beneath Alex’s feet into a spiderweb of fissures.
“Oh?” A flash of pleasant surprise appeared in Alex’s eyes.
‘So this was Armament Haki?’ He had heard that Haki could negate Devil Fruit powers.
Although this energy felt weak to him, it certainly had its unique properties.
He didn’t even tap into his Cosmo; he simply threw a basic, unenhanced punch.
Clang!
The moment his fist collided with the giant Buddha’s palm, a crisp, metallic ring echoed across the battlefield, stinging the eardrums of everyone nearby.
The ice beneath Alex instantly collapsed.
Hundreds of meters of the frozen surface shattered and plummeted like broken glass, revealing the pitch-black seawater churning below.
However, new ice materialized out of thin air directly beneath his feet, keeping him steadily suspended mid-air.
“Not bad power!” Alex evaluated inwardly, though he didn’t feel there was anything worth learning from the exchange.
Compared to a Gold Saint’s Seventh Sense Cosmo, Haki was simply too weak.
He opened his fist into a palm and precisely pinched one of the golden Buddha’s fingers.
Under the horrified, unblinking gazes of everyone present, he lifted the giant Buddha, which was dozens of meters tall, as easily as picking up a baby chick!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The ice quaked violently as Sengoku was smashed back and forth against the ground like a ragged sack.
The divine halo of his Buddha form grew dimmer and dimmer with each brutal impact.
Before long, he reverted to his human form, lying limply on the shattered ice, his fate unknown.
The massive battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
The pirates’ jaws dropped, completely forgetting to breathe.
What kind of monster was this?
Where on earth did Whitebeard find such a terrifying helper?
The Marines’ faces were completely ashen.
With both their Fleet Admiral and an Admiral beaten into this pathetic state, how could they possibly continue fighting?
They had lost.
It was an absolute and crushing defeat!
The Paramount War was being broadcast live to the entire world.
A war where the Marines had mobilized all their absolute elite military might had been completely overturned and single-handedly dismantled by one person!
Alex clapped his hands to dust them off and looked at the remaining fighters.
“Anyone else want to try?” Before his voice could even fade, a beam of yellow light suddenly shot out from the crowd, refracting several times in the air as it bolted straight for the clouds.
“Haha, kid, I’m just here for the paycheck.” Kizaru’s voice drifted down from high above, carrying his usual lazy drawl.
“Whatever is happening here has nothing to do with me.
Farewell!” “Trying to run?” Alex’s eyes turned ice-cold.
Until he finished checking everyone’s status, absolutely nobody was allowed to leave.
He raised his hand and waved.
The moisture in the air instantly condensed, and countless ice crystals gathered like falling stars into a spinning, violent vortex.
A burst of blinding blue light flashed…
Aquarius Ultimate Technique!
Diamond Dust!
The torrent of blue ice shot forward, instantly catching up and accurately striking that fleeing beam of yellow light.
Bang!
A massive block of ice plummeted from the sky, hitting the frozen surface with a heavy, resonating thud.
Inside the thick ice block, Kizaru’s eyes were wide open, his face frozen in a mask of pure disbelief.
He had clearly completely elementalized into light; how was he still frozen solid?
What kind of absurd ability was this?
After that single strike, there was absolutely no sound left in the plaza.
If even Kizaru, who could turn into literal light, couldn’t escape, the others didn’t even dare to twitch a muscle.
Only one thought echoed in their minds: ‘Where did this lunatic come from?
He just single-handedly crushed the strongest fighters in the entire world!’ “Are there any more challengers?” Alex walked up to the Marine Headquarters embankment and comfortably sat down on the wide executioner’s platform seat that originally belonged to Sengoku.
“If not, line up and walk past me one by one.
Aokiji, you help maintain order.” Aokiji clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white…
“Wait a minute!”
