One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 117 is on full fire!

"Big characters burst into flames!"

A massive fireball crashed down, transforming into a star shape in mid-air, its enormous attack range covering the entire lava arena.

"boom!!!"

Amidst the deafening roar of the explosion, flames shot skyward, and the powerful shockwave spread in all directions!

Katakuri flew out of the flames, his arms outstretched in front of him, and crashed into the audience seats from the impact of the explosion.

Just as his back was about to hit the wall, he forcefully twisted his body, causing him to crash headfirst into the ruins.

His back will never touch the ground!
"boom!"

Smoke and dust filled the air.

Katakuri propped himself up, coughed up a mouthful of blood, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and he quickly dodged to the side. The next moment, the volcanic bomb hit the spot where he had been standing!

Immediately afterwards, a large number of volcanic bombs came down!

"Spitfire!"

Groudon Good opened its mouth and spewed out a series of fiery volcanic bombs, relentlessly tracking Katakuri.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!"

Katakuri constantly changed positions, using his ability to foresee the future combined with a high-speed movement technique similar to "Shave" to perfectly dodge every attack, while circling the arena, looking for an opportunity.

A vision of the future appeared in my mind!
Katakuri looked up at the sky, and his enormous claws slammed down!

"boom!!!"

The audience seats were shattered!
Good slammed his fist on the ground in a rage, and suddenly a figure burst out of the dust and rushed up his arm!

It's Katakuri!
Before he could pull his arm back, Goode quickly opened his mouth, and under the blessing of the clear sky, a blinding white light shot out.

"Sunfire!"

"So fast!"

Katakuri was startled, but having already anticipated the trajectory of the beam, he quickly exerted force with his legs, dodging the beam and appearing to the side of Groudon's head.

"Peerless Donuts!"

Wake up!

Donuts appeared on his sides, extending huge iron fists from them. To deal with the enormous monster, he needed even more powerful attacks!
"Weird Rice Cake!"

The fist, imbued with Haki, slammed into Groudon's cheek with all its might!

"Bang!!!"

A powerful and heavy punch!
"Ouch!"

Goode cried out in pain, his body tilting to the side. He took a step to the side with his right foot to support his falling body.

He turned his head toward Katakuri.

"Damn it, it hurts!"

Good roared, his emotions gradually becoming volatile.

Kizaru is like that, and so is Katakuri.

Fighting with these elusive guys is so annoying!
Reality is not a turn-based game. Even for moves that are guaranteed to hit, enemies can still dodge them in various ways. Furthermore, attacks with a very wide range mean that the attack power is dispersed, making it difficult to inflict fatal damage.

Good became angrier the more he thought about it, and raised his two huge claws, swatting at Katakuri in the air as if he were swatting a mosquito.

"Snapped!"

The air bursts!

As expected, the shot missed.

Before being filmed, Katakuri, having nowhere to grab hold of, stretched out his arm and grabbed a rock in the audience to pull himself away from the attack.

Katakuri quickly steadied himself and placed his right hand on the ground.

"Flowing Sticky Rice Ball Lasso!"

The surrounding rocks and other objects all turned into soft, sticky masses, and split into ropes that shot out and wrapped around Goode's enormous body.

Although it is made of glutinous rice, it is extremely chewy.

"This kind of thing is useless!"

A wave of intense heat emanated from Goode's body, instantly drying the glutinous rice balls clinging to him and releasing a rich aroma.

"Secret Recipe: Glutinous Rice Cookies!"

With a little force, all the glutinous rice on its body burst and fell off.

Goode tossed up a cookie, opened his mouth, and bit into it.

It's crunchy and quite delicious.

"This guy!"

Katakuri's expression darkened. Not only was its defense extremely strong, but it could also raise its body temperature to dry out the rice, meaning that binding techniques would be completely ineffective.

However, maintaining such a massive transformed state will inevitably consume a lot of stamina. As long as he can drag it out, he will definitely be the victor.

But that's how the weak fight!

His younger siblings are looking at him!
"Whoosh!"

Katakuri appeared in the sky, his mochi-like right arm becoming enormous, even larger than the arm of a giant.

Armament Haki enveloping you!
"Giant Rice Cake!"

Katakuri unleashed a massive iron fist!

Goode's eyes lit up, and he swung his claws!

He's never been afraid of anyone when it comes to a head-on confrontation!
"Qiang!!!"

Fist and claw collided, and the powerful collision caused a large amount of black and red lightning to spread in all directions.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A constant roar surrounded them, with debris and lava shooting into the sky!

"Ouch!!!!"

Good roared, his claws gradually pushing back Katakuri's fist. In Groudon form, he not only possessed immense strength but could also rapidly absorb the surrounding natural forces.

At this moment, the lava pool beneath his feet is continuously providing him with energy, so he won't get tired even if he fights all day long.

He is invincible now!

Katakuri's face was contorted with rage, unable to withstand Goode's advance.

"Why does this guy's power show no signs of diminishing!"

Normally, in a contest of strength, both sides will gradually become exhausted, just like breathing. In a single breath, the amount of air exhaled gradually decreases until the next inhalation.

His power was waning, while his opponent's power was not weakening at all, and even seemed to be getting stronger!
It's about to break!
When his strength was exhausted, Katakuri was unable to do anything, and the future unfolded in reality!

His fist flew high into the air, and a huge claw struck his body. With terrifying force, his body flew like a cannonball towards the audience!

"boom!!!"

Smoke and dust rose into the sky.

The ministers of the Kingdom of One Piece lay prone at the highest point, watching Katakuri being blasted away once again, their hearts filled with unbearable worry.

"I believe in Katakuri!"

"Katakuri-nii-san will never lose!"

"Look!"

When the smoke cleared, the people of Whole Cake Island were stunned to see Katakuri lying on the ground.

"Katakuri's back touched the ground!"

The man, whose back never touched the ground and who even slept standing up, was now lying in the pile of rubble.

That's impossible!
"Oh oh oh!!!"

Goode roared excitedly.

It feels so good to use my strength!

But for a mere Paramecia to compete in strength with someone who can transform is simply asking for trouble; an old lady would be a better match.

Katakuri slowly stood up, blood streaming down his forehead. Although he showed a vulnerable side in front of his younger siblings, his eyes were burning with an unprecedented intensity.

He hasn't met his match in a long time!
Katakuri ripped off his shirt, revealing his muscular upper body, and even took off the scarf he never took off, revealing his eel-like mouth.

The man roared!

"Good!!!"

"."

Goode grinned as he watched Katakuri's actions, and stomped his foot hard on the ground, causing a huge rock pillar to rise from the lava!

This is a new arena!

Goode's body gradually shrank, transforming into a beastman form similar in size to Katakuri, his fighting spirit surging.

He could feel Katakuri's burning spirit. Although he could win by holding out, and even wear Katakuri down, Katakuri had issued a challenge. How could a man back down?

In response, he will fight it in the most suitable manner.

Without a word, the two could clearly feel the voice coming from each other's souls, and simultaneously jumped onto the arena!

"Good!"

"Katakuri!"

The two roared and charged at each other!
