Chapter 287

Seeing Marco launch another attack, a violent surge of magical power erupted from within him, and with him at the center, the ground within several hundred meters kept shattering.

Kicking off with both feet, Hyberion's wings behind him shuddered, his body turning into an afterimage as he shot out explosively; terrifying magical power gathered in his hands, and the blood-colored magic instantly broke through the fire net to reach Marco at close range.

The next moment, magical power exploded, and the blood-colored magic completely engulfed Marco.

Clearly, this time Hyberion intended to use his overwhelming magical power to erase Marco directly!

However, just as Hyberion thought his attack had succeeded, a wisp of golden flame surfaced within the blood-colored magic, then kept growing larger.

Boom—!

Accompanied by a tremendous roar, the golden flame burst out of the explosion, transforming into a golden phoenix wreathed in power all over its body, carrying regenerative flames burning everywhere, and charged toward Hyberion.

"What a tenacious (Zhao Zhao) life force indeed!?"

Looking at the golden phoenix before him, Hyberion's pupils contracted slightly; he had never expected his opponent to be able to withstand his attack.

Marco's Three-Star state — the true state of the Devil Fruit's awakening.

Beyond granting flame-attack ability, the self-healing ability of the Regenerative Flame also entered a new rank.

No matter how heavy the attack he suffered, as long as the Regenerative Flame still existed, he could be reborn again.

Like a phoenix rising from nirvana, with every rebirth Marco's strength advanced another step!

Wielding the even more powerful golden flame after rebirth, Marco in his Devil Fruit awakened state charged toward Hyberion!

"Since you want to fight, then I'll keep you company to the very end!"

Boom—!

The golden flame descended, and a new wave of shock erupted in its wake!

And this time it was Marco's flames that completely engulfed Hyberion's body!
