Chapter 128

All things are sand!

Immediately after,

the sand within a hundred-meter radius was all manipulated by Crocodile,

surging toward Li Xiao in a vast, overwhelming tide!

From Li Xiao's perspective,

all the sand around him rose into the air,

blotting out the sky in an instant!

Like a gigantic net about to trap Li Xiao within it,

then bury him utterly beneath the endless sand!

Seeing this,

Li Xiao slightly furrowed his brows,

and immediately summoned the Purple-Gold Linglong Tower!

The Purple-Gold Linglong Tower flew out from within Li Xiao,

hovering directly above him,

spinning as it scattered waves of golden light,

enveloping Li Xiao entirely!

Neither the overwhelming tide of sand,

nor the corrosive power within it,

could penetrate this thin, gauze-like layer of golden light!

Then,

Li Xiao formed a Hand Seal with both hands,

and vast amounts of spiritual power within him began to drain rapidly!

In mere moments,

nearly half of Li Xiao's spiritual power was consumed!

"Call the Wind and Rain!"

As Li Xiao's spiritual power drained swiftly,

deep within the desert, where moments before the sun blazed fiercely and heat radiated,

a violent wind suddenly arose,

carrying with it a touch of coolness!

Afterwards,

the scorching sunlight vanished!

Crocodile instinctively looked upward,

and saw the sky now filled with dark clouds,

lightning flashing and thunder roaring in an instant!

Immediately after,

deep in the boundless desert,

a torrential downpour began!

Feeling the raindrops falling upon his body,

Crocodile instinctively furrowed his brows,

murmured:

"It's raining. Is this his Devil Fruit ability?"

Aside from domineering presence and Sea-Stone,

water can also partially suppress his Sand-Sand Fruit!

At this moment,

watching the torrential rain from the sky,

Crocodile could not help but feel a sense of foreboding!

But it had come to this,

he had no path of retreat!

At such a moment,

even the slightest hesitation could lead to his death!

Thinking this,

Crocodile steadied his mind,

silently controlling even more sand to surge endlessly toward Li Xiao!

Each grain of sand carried the power of corrosion!

As long as it touched Li Xiao's body,

with sufficient accumulation,

it would surely break through the invisible barrier he had sensed before,

then instantly drain all moisture from his body!

Even as torrential rain continued to fall from the sky,

Even as a torrential downpour continued to fall from the sky,

Yet beneath the countless layers of yellow sand,

these raindrops could not possibly reach Li Xiao's body,

thereby replenishing his moisture!

Therefore,

as long as he could drain all the moisture from within Li Xiao,

this battle, he would win!
