Chapter 154

"Hundred Flowers in Disarray · Spider Blossom!"

Luo Bin activated her ability, and countless arms sprouting from the air reached toward Dobby-man like a spider web, seizing him.

"Eight-Impact Fist, Triple Air Cannon!"

Kung Fu Sea Lion Xiao Qi leaped high into the air, his Armament Haki-hardened right fist slamming viciously into Dobby-man's abdomen, three powerful piercing shockwaves exploding across Dobby-man's belly in succession.

"Cough!"

Dobby-man, coughing up a mouthful of sour water, his face twisted in agony, fell backward and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Steel Lock!"

Konice in the air activated her ability, steel chains like spirit snakes coiling toward his four limbs, binding him fast.

"Bonney, now."

Luo Bin shouted to Bonney.

"Got it!"

Pink long hair, looking like a young woman, Bonney replied, activating Insect Breathing, swiftly arriving before Dobby-man, her palm reaching out to touch him.

Dobby-man, struggling with all his might yet unable to break free of the double restraint of those arms and steel, stared at Bonney who had come before him, gnashing his teeth.

"Damn it!"

Just as Bonney was about to touch Dobby-man and use her ability on him, and Luo Bin and the others thought victory was decided—

An expressionless Bartholomew Kuma appeared before Bonney.

In Bonney's rapidly widening eyes—

He raised his bear paw and slammed it down toward Bonney.

Whoosh!

Bonney vanished on the spot in an instant.

Luo Bin, Konice, and Xiao Qi all widened their eyes.

No way—?!

"Damn it!!"

Xiao Qi was the first to come back to his senses. He roared, used Soru to appear before Kuma, his Armament Haki-hardened pitch-black right fist wreathed in heat as it blasted toward Kuma!

But it was firmly caught by the bear paw Kuma raised, the powerful shockwave and fist force all deflected by the bear paw.

"Pressure Cannon."

Kuma said softly.

A terrifying shockwave burst from the bear paw, sending Xiao Qi flying like a cannonball in an instant.

Whoosh!

Nine rapidly spinning, razor-sharp iron spikes tore through the air, stabbing toward Kuma from several directions.

Kuma raised his bear paw and gave the air before him a light slap.

The air trembled violently, rings of powerful shockwave spreading outward from him in every direction, like a barrier, making it impossible for those iron spikes to get close.

Konice clenched her teeth, desperately reinforcing her ability.

But the gap in strength could not be overcome.

No matter how she pushed her ability, those iron spikes still could not break through the barrier formed by that shockwave.

Kuma used his other bear paw to pat himself, teleporting instantly before Konice, the bear paw in his hand rapidly enlarging in her widened eyes.

Whoosh.

The Steel Witch Konice also vanished before the stunned eyes of the audience watching every screen.

Kuma stepped forward to stand before Luo Bin, looking down at her expressionlessly.

Luo Bin's eyes trembled slightly.

So this is the strength of the Tyrant, Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea alongside that Crocodile?!

What terrifying pressure!

On a completely different level from a Vice Admiral!

Luo Bin bit her lip, just as she was about to go all-out for a desperate fight—

Whoosh!

A streak of black light shot in from afar, charging straight at Kuma without hesitation.

It was Xiao Qi, using Iron Head Skill.

His round head, hardened black as iron by Armament Haki, was incomparably hard—the perfect weapon for him.

Facing this powerful opponent, he felt not the slightest fear, only excitement and fighting spirit!

The pitch-black sea lion's iron head collided with the bear paw Kuma raised.

Boom!

Two gathered air pressures exploded violently apart.

The ground shattered instantly, rubble flying, gale winds sweeping through.

Reporters in the distance were blown unsteady, the screen image shaking and blurring.

When the image cleared again—

On the shattered ground inside the screen, only Kuma remained.

That astonishingly powerful sea lion and Nico Robin had both vanished.

Just as the audience before the screens was stunned—

A figure dropped violently from above!

Crashing heavily into the center of this battlefield!

The already shattered ground sank once more, crumbling even more completely, and countless scattered rocks floated up into the air!

Under the gaze of the entire world.

In the deep crater at the center of the battlefield, a black-clothed youth with blood-colored steam rising from his entire body and a black blade in his hand had his jet-black hair streaming wildly; a streak of blood marked the corner of his eye, and his gaze was sharp and chilling enough to make one's heart seize.

When Huang Yuan, draped in a coat of justice, descended from the air.

Dauberman, his entire body hardened with Armament Haki, likewise broke free of the steel restraints and rose to his feet.

And added to that, Bartholomew ahead.

One Marine Headquarters Admiral, one Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea — in a triangular formation they surrounded the black-haired youth among them!

Watching this scene, countless people before their screens gulped, cold sweat pouring down their foreheads.

"Hey, hey, hey, isn't this just way too terrible?!"

"Just how on earth is anyone supposed to escape from a situation like this…"

"This is the kind of formation you'd use against one of the Four Emperors… way too exaggerated."

"What terrifying pressure — just looking at it makes me feel like I can't breathe."

"A despair-inducing situation…"

"The legend of the Traveler Luo En has only just begun — could it really be ending right here?!"

……

138, A Sky Full of Falling Meteorites (combined chapter)

Under the collision of the auras of the four — and especially of Luo En, Huang Yuan, and Bartholomew.

The stones floating around Luo En shattered one after another.

The air trembled and quaked, and rings of shockwaves from the clashing auras surged outward like waves, slapping against everything around them.

Let alone the reporters in the distance — even Dauberman, the Headquarters Vice Admiral standing close to the three, could feel a measure of pressure.

At the center of the battlefield.

Accompanied by a flash of brilliant crimson light in Luo En's eyes.

Hmm!

Level 4 Conqueror's Haki, fully unleashed!

A blood-red ripple spread out from his body, instantly shattering the auras of Huang Yuan and Bartholomew as it radiated outward; everywhere it passed, whether man or beast, all were overwhelmed by that soul-deep, awe-inspiring might and fainted on the spot.

The reporters in the distance rolled their eyes back and passed out one after another; the carnivorous rabbits — the Lapins — in the forest collapsed in turn, and in the village farther still, the villagers dropped one after another.

Chopper and Dr. Kureha likewise fainted in front of the tree house.

The Conqueror's Haki spread across half the island, and even the sky above was riven with a strange phenomenon of blood-colored lightning.

Even Headquarters Vice Admiral Dauberman, under the pressure of that Conqueror's Haki, was dazed for a moment in heart and spirit; coming back to himself, he stared at that black-haired, hair-streaming figure, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
