Chapter 191: The Final Battle, Absolute Crushing Power from a Six-Digit Commodity!

"Sand Crocodile, I never expected you to walk out of that desolate country?"

A delicate mechanical puppet said, its mouth opening and closing.

Crocodile, having been intercepted, frowned deeply. Hearing the familiar voice, he asked suspiciously, "Heavenly Yaksha?"

"Hehehehe..."

The mechanical puppet let out Doflamingo's signature laugh and said, "That's right, Sand Crocodile. Do you want to cooperate with me?"

"Garp and Hawkeye are still in a respawn state. Now only the Revolutionary Army's Leader remains. As long as we join forces, the Soul Reaper's first-kill reward will surely fall into our hands."

The Soul Reaper continuously spread deathly Yin energy, causing the Yin energy on Death Island to intensify. Affected by this interference, the players' respawn times were also extended.

From several minutes to several tens of minutes; the stronger the player, the longer the required respawn time.

Although Fang Yi could resolve it, he did not intervene.

Doing so would only continue to let the players of the Pirate World focus their attention on infighting.

The Pirate World has its own situation; appropriately increasing the Death Penalty is also a good way to weaken infighting behavior.

He very subtly avoided bringing up the issue of how to distribute the rewards.

"No need."

Crocodile looked arrogant. He continued to rush in the direction where the Straw Hat Crew was fleeing, saying, "I have more important things to do."

But he didn't expect that the mechanical puppet would have speed not inferior to his own. It caught up and said, "Sand Crocodile, there is nothing on this vast sea more important than the Samsara Game. It seems you have yet to realize the power of the game merchant."

Under normal circumstances,

Doflamingo would absolutely not waste his breath on an idiot like Sand Crocodile.

But the Revolutionary Army Leader with the 【Wind Dragon Bloodline】 was too strong; having had some of his puppets shattered by Garp, he was no match in a one-on-one fight.

He could only join forces with other cohorts.

The Navy that had already been slaughtered by him certainly wouldn't do, and Sand Crocodile, who had just entered the field, was naturally a very good candidate for cooperation.

Like himself, Sand Crocodile, who had usurped the Alabasta Kingdom, possessed enough assets to grow instantly, which would allow him to suppress Monkey D. Dragon together with himself.

"What a foolish guy."

Crocodile looked disdainful. The Caomao Lufei he was pursuing likely involved the Pluton, which could easily destroy islands. Could the Samsara Game be more important than a legendary weapon?

When he had just landed, he was also caught in the aftermath of the battle between Garp and Hawkeye.

However, Sand Crocodile was on the edge of Death Island at the time and lost the feed from the Image Den Den Mushi, so he did not see the battle at the very center clearly.

The residual energy fluctuations from the aftermath had already been diluted by the entire Death Island.

He also had no idea about the overall intensity of Death Island, so he did not experience the terrifying power of the Samsara Game.

People capable of having the courage and judgment of a Navy Headquarters Marshal,

are, after all, in the minority.

"The one who is foolish is you, Sand Crocodile!"

Doflamingo, who was entangled with Dragon, had blue veins bulging on his forehead; he was so angry he wanted to curse.

Snap.

Just by being slightly distracted, Dragon seized the opportunity to shatter one of his puppets worth several thousand Reward Points.

"Mr. Heavenly Yaksha, the Revolutionary Army has a reason it must win, sorry!"

The Revolutionary Army Leader, whose face was covered in Dragon Scales, panted heavily, exhaling long, narrow streams of air that were like sharp wind blades.

"Damn it."

After the puppet was shattered, a corner of Doflamingo's Puppet Mechanism Array was breached, and he could no longer continue to contend with Dragon.

Doflamingo's eyes were wide with rage as he watched helplessly as Dragon broke through the blockade of the 【Puppet Mechanism Array】 and charged toward the Soul Reaper like a sharp arrow.

"Navy!"

"Also has a reason it must win!"

A giant arm condensed from purple-red smoke fiercely gripped the high-speed moving Dragon.

Sizzle.

The Revolutionary Army Leader, cloaked in a wind-element outer garment, had intended to rely on his powerful defense to forcibly break through the blockade of the smoke arm.

However, the wind element that could continuously flow to offset damage was visibly being assimilated by the Poison.

Immediately following that, the skin protected by the hard Dragon Scales was also being corroded and burned at an extremely fast speed.

"What terrifying Poison!"

Inside Tui Jin Cheng, the Warden, who was squatting on the toilet holding a Den Den Mushi to watch the footage, looked on in a daze.

He was a Poison Human who had eaten the Poison-Poison Fruit; his entire body's fluids, including his breath, contained extremely intense Poison, and his Venom was powerful enough to melt rock.

But...

The Poison ability displayed by Smoker actually made him feel a bit alarmed.

Especially that kind of red Poison he had never seen before; was it more like fire?

It looked even more powerful and special than the Poison produced by the Poison-Poison Fruit.

Smoker, with a mere Smoke-Smoke Fruit...

Magellan felt a sense of grief and indignation. He was the one who was the Poison-Poison Fruit user; what on earth was this guy Smoker doing?

"Dragon, you have no chance of winning. The current me has been reborn!"

Smoker's powerful entrance made the Navy regain hope.

Poison Mist.

The purple-red smoke swept across the land, deliberately avoiding places where the Navy was.

The Pirates enveloped by the smoke were like they were being soaked in a pool of sulfuric acid, their bodies rapidly dissolving.

"Damn Navy!"

Some Pirates who had activated defensive skills felt panicked as they watched their energy shields being continuously eroded.

Among the tens of thousands of players, it was not as if there were no players of the Poison path.

At first, relying on their Poison Resistance, they had not raised their guard, but they soon discovered something was wrong.

Possessing super-high Poison Resistance, they were unexpectedly being damaged by Smoker's poisonous smoke, and their HP was continuously dropping.

Fire Poison!

Some players skilled in toxicology quickly identified that these mists were actually mixed with toxins of a special attribute.

"Colonel Smoker!"

The Navy of Loguetown let out an astonishing roar.

A large number of Pirates were cleared out, the pressure faced by the Navy suddenly eased, and there was a faint sign of a counterattack.

The power of one person turning the tide of battle.

Even Dragon had to admit that the current Smoker was qualified to stand before him.

"Purely by relying on assets, one can forcibly stack up an Admiral-level combatant; where exactly is the limit of the game merchant?"

The more the Samsara Game displayed means beyond expectations, the more settled Sengoku felt.

To support Smoker and Garp, Sengoku did not hesitate to tear his face off with the World Government, break with the World Nobles, and exhaust the military funds used to maintain the operation of the armies of the Si Hai.

Such a heavy bet naturally required seeing a huge return.

Dragon shook his head lightly and said expressionlessly: "You are not my opponent!"

The combat power Smoker displayed was very strong.

He had likely already spent tens of thousands of Reward Points to reinforce his Poison path abilities.

But these were not enough...

The 【Low-level Wind Dragon Bloodline】 he possessed was a super Bloodline with a price of 170,000 Reward Points.

Until now, Dragon had not yet made a full-strength move.

Because, relying on his current four-dimensional attributes, he simply could not support the long-lasting negative status brought about by the Dragon Blood eruption; if he had gone all out earlier, even if he could defeat Garp, Doflamingo, and Hawkeye, the opponents could revive by consuming a large amount of Reward Points, but he himself would have no way to recover to his peak state.

But now it was different; the Yin energy erosion caused the revival time to become longer, Garp and Hawkeye were both heavily injured, leaving only Smoker and Doflamingo, who was watching the tigers fight from the sidelines.

Dragon was completely fearless.

"Are the Revolutionary Army all guys as arrogant as you?"

Smoker clenched his fists, frantically mobilizing his internal energy and Poisonous Blood, continuously pouring them into the spreading poisonous mist.

The poisonous mist permeating everywhere seemed to come alive, beginning to surge and gather, finally condensing into three huge, ferocious heads behind Smoker.

Poison Dragon!

Inside the restroom of Tui Jin Cheng, Magellan, who was suffering from constant diarrhea, had a blank expression; he thought he was hallucinating, rubbed his eyes, and after seeing Smoker's move clearly, he punched the restroom wall, causing a large crater to appear in the wall.

"No, Colonel Smoker..."

Magellan had a feeling that it was hard to distinguish truth from falsehood, and said blankly: "You call this move Poison Dragon, then what am I supposed to do?"

His eyes were fixed on the screen.

Around the three Poison Dragons condensed from poisonous smoke, clouds of raging fire were swirling.

If only evaluating the appearance, the Poison Dragon developed by his own Poison-Poison Fruit seemed like a fake instead.

Magellan watched the nimble, circling Poison Dragon in the image, feeling sour in his heart.

Good appearance does not necessarily mean great power.

The Warden comforted himself this way.

The giant Poison Dragon opened its bloody maw, and accompanied by Smoker's diving posture, it roared as it charged toward the Leader of the Revolutionary Army on the ground.

Boom! The ground trembled.

The tidal wave of poisonous mist submerged more than half of Death Island, and the terrifying momentum was no less than the collision of attacks between Garp and Hawkeye.

In the center of Ghost City,

A large area of the terrain had completely turned into poisoned land, and the smoke-like Fire Poison was constantly evaporating, like a sea of poison.

Although, however...

Magellan retained his last bit of stubbornness, his fist pressed tightly against the wall, thinking to himself.

Even if your poison is stronger, but... I am the Poison-Poison Fruit user!...

The poisonous mist dispersed.

After Smoker saw the situation in the center of the sea of poison clearly, his expression was frighteningly ugly.

A figure was standing steadily in the sea of poison; his killer move, which had condensed a massive amount of toxins, had not even managed to make the opponent move a step.

"I said, when this battle ends, the Revolutionary Army will achieve victory."

Dragon's appearance had completely changed.

A jade-green dragon tail hung on the ground, scales covered his entire body, two Dragon Horns sprouted from his forehead, and his whole person was in a half-dragon, half-human state.

No one expected that the Leader of the Revolutionary Army could stand calmly within the sea of poison.

Even Sengoku did not have the confidence to take on the three Poison Dragons Smoker had just used.

"The Revolutionary Army must be eradicated!"

Sengoku felt some regret.

He should have blocked all sides of the Trial Tower the moment the game merchant appeared, strictly forbidding anyone from landing on the island; if that were the case, the Navy could have solely controlled the power of the Samsara Game and completely changed the sea.

New World, Ghost Island.

The Four Emperors Kaido, carrying a wine gourd, stared blankly at the Den Den Mushi, puzzled: "Could it be that my alcohol tolerance has become poor?"

In the entire sea area, the only fruit that should have been eaten by me is the Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Azure Dragon form, right?

Where did the Leader of the Revolutionary Army pop out from?

"Poison Dragon... I should be able to withstand that."

The Four Emperors Kaido said, his voice hazy with drunkenness and somewhat uncertain.

If it were Magellan's Poison-Poison Fruit, he, who holds the title of the strongest creature on land, sea, and air, could even take a bath in it.

But that white-haired Navy's Poison Dragon was clearly something else; he dared not be certain he could remain unscathed like the Revolutionary Army Leader.

After all,

his defense was not invincible; the special technique of Wano Country, Flowing Cherry Blossom Haki, could inflict damage upon him.

Kaido, itching for action, said: "Go find Jack, have him temporarily station at Ghost Island; I am going to the East Blue!"

No one dared to contradict him.

Logically, as the 【Guardian Myo-o】 of Wano Country and the Captain and Governor of the Beasts Pirates, running around alone was a very unstable matter.

Everyone knew this in their hearts, but no one dared to speak; after all, the temperamental Four Emperors Kaido would kill even his own crew members on a whim.

Bang.

The figure of Dragon suddenly vanished from where he stood; across several hundred meters, Smoker's chest suddenly exploded, and his entire body was sent flying backward by a massive force.

A long, narrow crack appeared across the entire Ghost City, completely pierced through by Smoker.

Pfft.

Smoker clutched his pierced chest, gasping for air, fresh blood spraying out continuously.

One strike.

He hadn't even been able to react.

What on earth was this?

"Dragon-Human Mode?... Dragon is really acting recklessly."

Ivankov, whose whole body was glowing with holy light to resist the highly toxic poison, sighed helplessly.

Dragon Blood.

It was an extremely dangerous item; even in high-level magical worlds filled with Great Mages and Saint-level Knights, it was the most top-tier biological substance.

Such a creature, nearing God-level, could easily destroy the Pirate World even in its weakest, newborn stage.

And the source of the Dragon race's power was their bloodline.

Dragon language, Dragon Magic, bloodline inheritance, true names... all of these were contained within the blood of the Dragon race.

It was different from the kind of Devil Fruit that Kaido possessed, which could only increase physical attributes.

The Revolutionary Army's half-dragon state was a negative condition caused by the dragon blood in their bodies erupting to a certain degree; the reinforcement of physical attributes was merely the weakest, incidental power.

The Dragon power contained within that blood was the true lethal move.

"Poison Mist Giant Soldier Flame Judgment!"

Smoker's throat moved, emitting a low roar.

He drove himself to the point of madness, burning all the energy in his body to manipulate the poison mist, weaving it together in layers.

A skeleton-shaped giant soldier, with poison flames burning behind it that almost dyed the sky a crimson red, looked like a massive Jiangjiun in armor descending from the heavens, or a ferocious evil ghost crawling out of Hell.

Magellan, leaning against the wall, felt the last shred of hope in his heart extinguished.

"I'm just saying... Smoker, can't you change it up when you steal moves? Why are they all my moves?"

Looking at the massive poison soldier that resembled a red-armored divine general, Magellan hammered his chest in hatred, like an angry ape.

"My Poison Mist Giant Soldier can even evaporate the ocean; I don't believe you can block it!"

Taking advantage of the cover provided by the Poison Mist Giant Soldier, Smoker hurriedly drank two bottles of Life Recovery Potion to restore the injury to his chest.

Half-dragon form? That kind of physical attribute reinforcement similar to a Zoan fruit, no matter how fast the speed or how powerful the strength, still needed to break through his Poison Mist Giant Soldier first.

However, the fire poison and Poisonous Blood burned to the extreme could not be bypassed by any living creature.

Even a single drop would cause one to be completely dissolved.

Dragon, who had already wounded him, did not continue to attack but instead watched him drink the recovery potion, which was proof enough that the opponent felt the threat of the Poison Mist Giant Soldier and dared not act rashly.

"Dragon, admit defeat!"

Smoker barely steadied his body, manipulating the Poison Mist Giant Soldier to attack forward.

The fiercely burning fire poison behind it didn't even need to make contact;

just the air currents stirred up by the movement of the Poison Mist Giant Soldier caused countless players to feel the scorching heat, their bodies beginning to dissolve automatically.

"I cannot maintain this state for long, so, this ends here."

From beginning to end,

Dragon's expression had not changed, even upon seeing such a terrifying Poison Mist Giant Soldier.

His pupils remained slit-shaped, emitting a faint, emerald-green light.

A sudden burst of aura erupted.

All the players on Death Island felt a shudder originating from the depths of their souls.

It was as if everything had returned to its most primitive state.

The instinctive panic that weak creatures like humans feel when smelling a more powerful creature.

"Wind Dragon Word Spirit Black Storm!"
