Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

It's not surprising that someone like the Iron-Walking Swordsman awakened Conqueror's Haki, is it?

No wonder!

The threat assessment of "Iron-Cutting Swordswoman" Kuina... needs to be re-evaluated!

Chapter 188 Kuina's Stepping Stone! Unable to Stop the Blackwing Demon Pirates...

"Conqueror's Haki..."

At this moment, Doflamingo was covered in wounds, the most serious of which had torn open his chest.

However, it looks like it's been sewn together with silk threads...

Doflamingo, half-covered in blood, sensed the Conqueror's Haki and his face darkened: "Even a guy who's subservient to others possesses this kind of talent..."

He possesses the same superior qualities as others!

How could someone who is subservient to others possess such qualifications?

"Don't use your narrow-minded thinking to judge our relationship. There is no distinction between superiors and subordinates on our ship."

Kuina was also in a very sorry state.

His injuries were even more severe than Doflamingo's; a gaping hole pierced his shoulder, from which blood gushed out...

Blood stained half of her body.

However, Kuina's will and conviction did not weaken; on the contrary, they became even sharper and more murderous than before.

'Snap!'

Kuina took out a pill from her bosom, bit it, and swallowed it. The bleeding wound stopped in the blink of an eye.

This is Xiao Yi's medicine; it can accelerate the recovery of physical strength and injuries, and it can also suppress the effects of injuries...

A side effect is that hair color may change.

Kuina's original black high ponytail has been turned gold, making her look even more dashing!

"You're strong, Doflamingo, but I won't lose!"

"If even you can't get past this, how can I compete with Rocks for the title of the world's greatest swordsman?"

The pain from the wound lessened after taking the medicine, and Kuina moved her shoulder, finding that it wouldn't significantly affect her combat ability...

She pointed her sword at Doflamingo: "This strike... will end this battle..."

Clang!

As she sheathed Wado Ichimonji, Kuina lowered her body, her right hand reaching for the hilt, a sharp glint in her eyes...

'boom!'

With a stomp of her right leg, Kuina transformed into a streak of light and charged toward Doflamingo!

"Fufufu, how arrogant you are, Iron-Cutting Swordsman!"

Doflamingo's mouth stretched to his ears, revealing a sinister smile, and his eyes behind his sunglasses flashed with murderous intent.

"Then let me crush you with my absolute power..."

Doflamingo grinned maliciously and made a thought.

He mobilized the menacing, clawing threads and tentacles behind him, which intertwined and transformed into even thicker pillars of threads.

The tip of the pillar was extremely sharp, covered by a thick layer of Armament Haki.

"Gods will slay you!"

Sixteen pillars surged forward with unstoppable momentum and overwhelming power, locking onto Guina's position and fiercely piercing through her!

"Isshin-ryu - Ultimate - Setsuna!"

As she charged forward, a red light flashed in Kuina's pupils as she caught the incoming spikes, dodging them several times.

When faced with pillars of wire coming from several directions and blocking her way, Kuina was unable to dodge.

This will allow the Wado Ichimonji, which has been waiting in the wings, to be unleashed!

'Hiss...'

As the sword rubbed against its scabbard, it gathered power, and the jet-black Wado Ichimonji sword was drawn at that moment!

This sword strike was like a flash of light, cutting through the invisible air beneath its blade!

'Boom!'

The next second, the Wado Ichimonji collided with the sharp barbed wire, a deafening roar erupted, and shockwaves spread out from the center point.

*Sizzle!*

Then, facing Kuina's unstoppable sword strike, Doflamingo's thick Armament Haki-covered pillar of lines only managed to hold out for a fraction of a second before being forcefully severed and destroyed!

At the same time, as Kuina swung her sword, a slender, sharp slash swept forward.

He shattered and cut through the remaining pillars, and with unstoppable momentum, he slashed down at Doflamingo in front of him!

"Fufufu, you've given yourself away..."

Just as the slender slash was about to hit him, Doflamingo leaped away to avoid it.

Then, his figure flew close to Kuina, and Doflamingo revealed a sinister smile: "This is the true... God's Execution!"

The sharp wire that could be easily cut was not his real attack; it was just a feint.

The lines that were avoided, now extending from the body...

That's his real killer move!

The swordsman's draw slash is a powerful move that requires skillful timing.

However, if the sword misses its mark, an opening will be revealed...

Once you seize this weakness in your opponent, their defeat is already assured!

"My sword-drawing slash has two stages!"

Kuina's sword strike missed, revealing an opening, and her center of gravity shifted.

However, this was something she did intentionally.

Because her sword-drawing slash has two stages!

"This is the true 'moment'!"

Kuina took a step and used the centrifugal force from swinging her sword to spin her body.

As her body turned, the powerful, thunderous Wado Ichimonji also moved, curving into an elliptical arc...

This sword strike was faster and more powerful, and the upward slash made it easier to generate force, slashing towards Doflamingo in front of him once again!

'Boom!'

The sharp, forward-piercing barb and the upward-pointing sword blade collided in a mere instant.

The collision was followed by an even more terrifying roar.

The earth cracked around their bodies, unable to withstand the impact of their clash, and fissures appeared everywhere...

'Boom boom boom...'

Abilities and strikes, domineering auras clashed wildly, generating deafening roars.

Waves of air also spread out from it...

"Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!"

The sharp threads that pierced through Kuina's back were originally aimed at vital points, but they were deflected by the shockwave and the airflow created by the sweeping of the Wado Ichimonji.

It moved from the back of the head, heart, and chest to the shoulders, abdomen, and thighs.

Kuina's body was pierced by three bloody holes by sharp needles, but despite the severe injuries, her eyes remained unchanged.

Perhaps because of Xiao Yi's medication, her sensitivity to pain has decreased significantly...

Ignoring injuries and pain, all for the sake of defeating the formidable enemy before them!

'boom!'

Driven by her powerful will, Kuina's Conqueror's Haki erupted once more, pressing down on Doflamingo at close range...

This caused Doflamingo to be momentarily dazed...

Seizing the opportunity is a swordsman's instinct.

In that instant, a more dazzling brilliance shone in Kuina's eyes as she unleashed her full Armament Haki!

*Sizzle!*

That instantaneous sword strike became even stronger, forcefully tearing through Doflamingo's Armament Haki and severing his sharp pincers.

Then the sword continued its downward slash with undiminished momentum!

Doflamingo's hastily summoned Armament Haki and the line shield extending from his body crumbled layer by layer under Kuina's upward sword strike.

The weakened sword strike landed heavily on Doflamingo's body.

'laugh!'

The sound of a sharp blade slicing through tough flesh rang out, and a bloody gash appeared on Doflamingo's body, running from his abdomen to his neck...

A large amount of blood splattered out, and the exposed wounds revealed internal organs and bones.

Doflamingo's eyes widened, revealing horror and disbelief.

Then, he was propelled backward by a force and crashed down more than ten meters away with a 'bang'...

"Cough cough..."

Doflamingo wasn't dead, but he was coughing up large amounts of blood, and the excruciating pain in his body indicated just how serious his injuries were...

An awkward look appeared in his eyes.

He was actually seriously injured to this extent by a girl who was only a teenager and a guy with a bounty of only 100 million Berries...

He quickly used the thread fruit to sew up his wound so that he wouldn't bleed to death.
