Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

'boom!'

Rocks' attack came first, even though it was delayed.

This punch was imbued with Conqueror's Haki, flowing Armament Haki with internal destructive power, the essence of fist techniques, and the power of Cero...

The power erupted instantly when the fist struck Akainu.

With a deafening roar, Akainu coughed up blood and flew backward.

Under the impact of the Conqueror's Haki, his eyes turned white and his internal organs were affected.

Even Armament Haki defense couldn't stop Rocks' punch!

'Boom boom boom!'

Just as Akainu was blasted away by Rocks, the Lava Hound, which was tearing down, simultaneously landed on Rocks.

Armament Haki was indeed unable to completely block this powerful attack, which then landed on Rocks.

With a deafening roar, half of Rocks' body was blasted to pieces, some flesh and internal organs disappeared, making him look particularly gruesome...

"Ouch, that really hurts..."

Lox twitched his lips, though intense pain shot through his body.

However, Rocks didn't care. With a thought, he used Super Speed ​​Regeneration, and all his injuries were instantly healed.

Rocks isn't afraid of trading injury for injury!

'Wow!'

Rocks, having recovered from his injuries, moved again. He took a step forward, opening a spatial rift, and caught up with Akainu, who was flying backward.

"One bone!"

A direct punch is the fastest way, and Rocks didn't want to miss the opportunity for a combo.

In an instant, Rocks leaned back and threw a punch at Akainu, the punch, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, slamming into Akainu's body.

'boom!'

With a single punch, Conqueror's Haki and the power of Cero erupted, the powerful attack causing Akainu to cough up blood again and his eyes to roll back...

Just as Akainu was about to be sent flying by this punch, a tail made of energy grabbed his body...

Rocks smirked: "You're in for a lot of trouble..."

'Boom boom boom...'

Throw a punch! Throw a punch!

In that brief moment, Rocks threw more than a dozen punches.

Each punch contained immense power, imbued with domineering aura and abilities, all striking Akainu's body.

Blood gushed from Akainu's mouth, and the faint sound of bones breaking could be heard...

"die!"

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes, and Locus clenched his right hand, bringing the Seven Star Sword, which had been stored within his body, back into his grasp.

After raising it high, he slashed down fiercely, intending to split Akainu in two!

"Go away!"

The excruciating pain and the threat of death brought Akainu back to his senses from the shock of Conqueror's Haki. His eyes were icy cold, yet a hint of madness surged within them.

How could he be killed so easily?

Akainu roared, "Volcanic Eruption!"

Akainu fully activated the Magma-Magma Fruit.

In that instant, Akainu's body seemed to contain the power of a volcanic eruption...

No, it should be said that Akainu transformed his own body into a volcano, unleashing a cataclysmic power at that moment!

'Boom!'

Like a self-destruction, Akainu's body exploded, resembling a nuclear explosion or a volcanic eruption.

The shockwaves and heat waves at close range crushed everything.

The loudest roar since the start of the battle shook the entire island.

Under such terrifying power, Rocks was the first to be struck.

Before Rocks' sword could even fall, he felt a terrifying shockwave and heat wave crashing down upon him.

'Click, click!'

The sound of bones breaking was like popping beans, and the internal organs were instantly severely damaged.

The intense heatwave charred Rocks's body, drying him out and turning him into a charred corpse...

Immediately afterwards, Rocks was sent flying backward by this immense force, plunging diagonally downward from a height of over ten meters.

Amidst the deafening roar, the earth undulated like ocean waves, with massive boulders rising up, the tallest reaching tens of meters in height.

In the very center, there was a bottomless pit, over ten meters in diameter, sloping downwards...

'Boom boom boom...'

The aftershocks of this cataclysmic power are still spreading, shaking the entire island; even those on the island's edge can feel the tremors.

The clouds in the sky were shattered by the shock, and the sky was clear and cloudless!

As this force erupted, the battlefields everywhere came to a halt, and everyone turned to look in that direction…

Both sides wore solemn expressions.

'Splash...'

On the earth, flowing lava gathered together and coalesced into the figure of Akainu.

Akainu looks extremely disheveled, covered in wounds, with a collapsed chest and some parts of his body twisted in a bizarre way.

"Whoosh..."

Akainu was panting heavily, clearly indicating that the attack he had just received had a significant negative impact on him.

But his gaze remained sharp and cold as he stared at the crater that slanted into the earth...

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

A good ten seconds passed, but there was still no movement from the other side.

Akainu's face finally showed an expression, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "No matter how strong your regenerative ability is, as long as you don't have a chance to recover, that's enough!"

Blackwing Daemon's strength doesn't lie in his physique; he's certainly not as strong as Kaido or Charlotte Linlin.

What makes the opponent so strong is their terrifying regenerative ability.

As long as the other party is not given a chance to recover, he doesn't believe that a dead person can recover from injuries.

Even physically monstrous beings like Kaido and Charlotte Linlin would be severely injured if they survived such an attack at close range.

The Blackwing Demon's physique was definitely not as strong as those two!

"You might be disappointed, Akainu..."

Space was torn open, and Rocks, unharmed and dressed in a different outfit, emerged from the spatial rift.

Staring at Akainu's darkening face, Rocks wore a cold smile: "How could I be killed so easily?"

As long as you're not instantly killed or knocked unconscious.

Rocks can recover using super-fast regeneration; at most, it consumes more physical strength and energy...

However, energy can be replenished; both the Rumble Ball and the Seven Star Sword can do so.

Furthermore, the Seven Star Sword is different from what it used to be...

As time went on, Rocks continued to grow stronger, and he never stopped developing his abilities.

The duration of maintaining the third stage of the ethereal state is now getting longer and longer.

Even without taking drugs or absorbing energy with the Seven Star Sword, it's enough to sustain a high-intensity battle!

"So hard to kill!"

Seeing this, Akainu narrowed his eyes, becoming even more wary of Rocks.

He withstood such an attack head-on and was able to withstand it, recovering in the blink of an eye.

Even Zoan-type Awakened Ones shouldn't possess such regenerative abilities.

Does the other person have any secrets?

"That move just now must have taken a toll on you, Akainu."

Rocks sensed that Akainu's aura had weakened considerably; he was no longer at his peak and had suffered serious injuries.

"How long can you withstand my attacks like this?"

Rocks laughed heartily, took a step forward, and charged towards Akainu once again...

"Killing you is enough!"

Akainu's eyes were icy cold, half of his body turned into lava, and he once again engaged in fierce battle with Rocks!

'Boom! Boom boom boom…'

The battle between the two was incredibly fierce, with each determined to kill the other.

No holding back, no mercy, a fight with all their might...

"Oh my gosh, how could I miss out on such a scene?"

At that moment, everyone heard a sound coming from the sky.

Accompanying this is a fierce and overwhelming aura of dominance!

Many sailors and ordinary people further away were swept away by this Conqueror's Haki and fell into a coma, foaming at the mouth.

An indiscriminate onslaught of Conqueror's Haki!

"Ok?"
