One Piece: Winged Dragon of the Beasts Pirates

Senior Golden Lion frowned. What is this kid up to?

The next instant, Ian launched himself forward.

The golden lion's pupils suddenly contracted.

The golden flame sword was now covered with a layer of pitch black, and beyond this domineering aura, there were also invisible fluctuations of flowing domineering energy.

Finally, streaks of pitch-black lightning suddenly spread out!

"Oh!!"

Below, the redhead exclaimed in surprise, "Ian can do that too?"

"No,"

Hawkeye's expression was somewhat subtle. "Yes, I've learned it."

He recalled his time as a sparring partner.

However, seeing Ian's progress now brings a sense of relief.

when! !

The Flaming Sword clashed with the Golden Lion's twin swords—

Do not!

There was no collision!

Three swords clashed from a distance!

A tiny, black dot, like a black hole, leaped about, bursting forth with countless black lightning bolts.

A sudden gust of wind swept everything away.

"Forehead,"

Even as he was immersed in grief, Ace couldn't help but look up, then exclaimed in surprise, "It's cracked again, the third time it's cracked."

The sky has cracked open again.

I had some things to do today, so I wrote this in the afternoon after I got back...

Chapter 170 The Golden Lion Fades!

2024-07-08

After training with Mihawk, Ian is only a little short of mastering the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement.

It really was just a tiny bit off.

There's no need to be driven to the brink, no need to exert all your strength, and no need for a sudden burst of energy.

All it takes is to clash with a powerful opponent who has also mastered Conqueror's Haki; under the impact of their killing intent and aura, that last remaining barrier will naturally be breached.

"So, it's that simple!"

Ian laughed wildly as his flaming sword clashed with the Golden Lion's twin swords.

Unprecedentedly violent and domineering lightning streaked everywhere, cleaving through the clouds in the sky and shattering the ground downwind.

Splitting the sky isn't that difficult.

Senior Golden Lion, I have sensed your domineering spirit and understood your ambition!

Therefore, you can lose.

The Golden Lion's expression suddenly changed.

This power!

boom! !

The sky was breathtaking!

Amidst the surging, domineering lightning, the Golden Lion burst forth, creating rings of sonic booms in the air.

"It's amazing!"

Shanks exclaimed sincerely, "He's only fifteen, isn't he?"

Even Barrett back then, Ian at that age didn't have nearly as much strength as him.

Although it's said that besides Captain Roger, only Rayleigh could rival Bullet at that time, Shanks, as a member of Roger's crew, knew better than anyone that it was just because Jabba was too lazy to subdue the often-raging Bullet.

In terms of ability, Barrett was only ranked fourth on the ship at that time.

Even when he was at his strongest on the ship, he was probably not as strong as he is now.

Without a doubt, Ian, who had mastered Conqueror's Haki Entanglement, had completely surpassed him.

Fifteen years old.

At the age of fifteen, Ian had already stepped into the threshold of becoming the strongest.

Redhead felt a little ashamed for a moment.

Captain Roger once said that he was the most qualified person to become the new Joey Boy, but now he suddenly feels that he is nothing compared to Ian, this monster.

This is the real Joey Boy!

Or should I just tell him the secret the captain entrusted to me?

On the other side, the hero Garp also looked solemn.

"Conqueror's Haki entangling? Hiss—"

Aokiji gasped, but thankfully, as a user of the Ice-Ice Fruit, his breath was also cold air, so there was no need to worry about the greenhouse effect.

"Mr. Garp, I think it's necessary to reassess the threat posed by the Beasts Pirates!"

The domineering aura of Conqueror's Haki already makes him a king among millions.

Those who can master Conqueror's Haki Entanglement are extremely rare; at least within the Navy, only Admiral Sengoku possessed this technique.

The Conqueror's Haki Entanglement technique is already incredible, but when it appears on a monster like Ian, it becomes even more terrifying!

His basic skills are so impressive that he can fully demonstrate the power of this move!

That was indeed what Ian was feeling at that moment.

He clenched his right fist, his five fingers crackling with domineering energy, and the air in his palm was distorted by the pressure of the energy, making a crisp crackling sound.

Ian's lips curled into a smile.

Unprecedented power!

Armament Haki for internal destruction, Observation Haki for foreseeing the future, Conqueror's Haki for entanglement, and the Mythical Zoan type Winged Dragon of Ra form!

We're having such a blast!

I now definitely have the strength to fight against Teacher Kai.

Whether we win or lose is hard to say, but at least we certainly won't be as humiliated as before!

However, in terms of techniques, the three types of Haki have basically reached their limit, with only one technique left, the Observation Kill, whose principle is unknown. It is also unknown whether Shanks has mastered it.

It's unlikely that there will be any more instances of a qualitative leap in strength in a short period of time. The only option will be to slowly improve the quality of one's Haki and wait for the body to fully mature so that the physique can continue to become stronger.

I just don't know when my abilities will awaken.

Teacher Kai said that when both the body and mind catch up with one's abilities, those abilities will awaken.

However, even before mastering the Overlord's Binding Technique, he was already quite strong, wasn't he? A true Admiral-level powerhouse, even compared to the Emperors, he was only half a level below them. It's hard to say whether Straw Hat Luffy had that level before his awakening. Nika, who hadn't awakened for eight hundred years, had awakened, but he himself hadn't felt anything at all.

Even now, after mastering the art of dominance, he still shows no sign of awakening.

Could it be that I also have to go through a life-or-death crisis before my abilities can awaken?

"Hey kid! What are you daydreaming about?!"

A gust of wind rushed towards him, and a magnificent and violent slash swept towards Ian.

Ian couldn't help but recall the last time he fought the Golden Lion. Back then, he stood still and let the senior attack him until he was exhausted.

Of course, that won't work now. Shiki's Haki has been fully restored, and his slashes, a mixture of Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, are not something that an ordinary beastman form can withstand.

So Ian raised his hand.

Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki mixed together, expanding in the next instant and transforming into a solid barrier.

The slashing storm crashed into the unmoving reef, instantly shattering it into pieces.

Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki can be used together, so Conqueror's Haki can also share the external release and internal destruction capabilities of Armament Haki.

"Lion's Might - Annihilation Slash!"

Senior Golden Lion has closed in again, slashing down with his twin swords.

Ian swung the Flaming Demon Sword, which was clearly a sharp divine sword, but now, empowered by Conqueror's Haki, it was like a baseball bat, directly colliding with Shiki's twin swords.

After a brief stalemate, the Golden Lion was once again sent flying by Ian's sword.

It seems that even after several months of rehabilitation, the Golden Lion's imposing aura has not returned to its peak.

Ian sighed.

Their strength was already far inferior to mine, and now even the gap in domineering aura has narrowed.

Honestly, we could practically pop champagne right now.

Forget it, there's no point in wasting time. Let's get serious.

"Senior Golden Lion,"

Ian flicked the Levadin sword in his hand, and the golden holy sword instantly turned crimson. "Now you can think about your last words."

Simply wrapping Conqueror's Haki around the blade would prevent the destructive power of the flames from being unleashed, as it would essentially turn into a baseball bat.

Therefore, it is necessary to directly inject the dual-color Haki into the blade, causing the surface of the scarlet blade to develop jet-black patterns, with wisps of black lightning flickering up, like black gas emanating from the blade, adding even more evil aura to the already ominous Flame Demon Sword due to its scarlet color.

"The fire of destruction?"

The Golden Lion laughed loudly, "Then let me see! Can your flames destroy me?"

"it is good."
