Chapter 132 Mahapadma

Before she could finish speaking, a crimson figure suddenly appeared in front of Esdeath. Sakazuki had somehow broken through the rain of fire and instantly arrived before her, throwing a punch.

His body was in a semi-liquefied state, with scalding magma slowly flowing from his skin, radiating a suffocatingly high temperature.

Esdeath's pupils contracted, and she instinctively leaned back. Lava grazed her nose, its scorching heat almost burning her skin.

"So fast!" Esdeath was secretly surprised, but a lovestruck smile appeared on her face.

She slammed her right foot into the ground, instantly freezing it. A massive ice spike shot up like a cannonball, aiming straight for Sakazuki's chest.

"shave!"

Sakazuki snorted coldly, his figure suddenly blurring. The next instant, he vanished from his spot, leaving only a blurry afterimage pierced by ice spikes. The sonic boom from his movement still echoed in the air.

"Storm Kick - Lava!"

Sakazuki's voice rang out behind Esdeath. She turned around abruptly, only to see Sakazuki's legs already raised high, wrapped in scalding lava.

At this point, Sakazuki had perfectly combined the Six Powers of the Navy with his Devil Fruit ability.

The next instant, a crimson crescent-shaped slash roared out, the air distorted by the intense heat.

Esdeath crossed her arms, instantly conjuring an ice shield. The slash slammed heavily onto the ice shield, producing a deafening explosion.

Her body was instantly thrown backward by the enormous impact, crashing heavily into an iceberg, sending ice shards flying everywhere.

Esdeath coughed, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of her mouth. But instead of backing down, she revealed an even more excited smile. She wiped the blood from her mouth, a dangerous glint in her eyes.

"Well done!" Esdeath shouted, her body tensing abruptly like a fully drawn bow. In the next instant, she sprang from the iceberg, leaving a trail of afterimages.

At the same time, Sakazuki made his move. He stomped his foot on the ground, causing the entire earth to tremble. Lava churned beneath his feet, propelling his body toward Esdeath.

Two figures rapidly approached each other in mid-air, like two colliding meteors. Time seemed to slow down at that moment, and everything around them became blurred.

The two attacked simultaneously!

"boom!"

Their fists collided in mid-air, unleashing a deafening roar. The clash of ice and fire triggered a terrifying energy storm, distorting the surrounding air.

After the collision, Esdeath and Sakazuki immediately engaged in fierce close combat.

Their figures flashed across the battlefield, so fast that their trajectories were almost invisible. Each collision caused an earthquake-like tremor, and the earth cracked beneath their feet.

Sakazuki suddenly took a half step back, gathering his strength for a powerful punch. His fist, coated in scalding magma, slammed head-on into Esdeath. The air was compressed in an instant, producing a deafening sonic boom.

Esdeath dodged to the side, simultaneously sweeping her right leg, the cold air condensing into an ice blade. Sakazuki blocked with Armament Haki covering his arms, the ice blade colliding with his arms, sparking a shower of sparks.

"boom!"

The two attacks collided again, and a huge shockwave spread outwards.

The earth suddenly bulged up, and a huge iceberg rose from the ground. But before the iceberg could fully take shape, Sakazuki stepped on it, and scorching magma gushed out from the cracks, instantly melting half of the iceberg.

As the two fought, the surrounding terrain constantly changed. Icebergs and volcanoes appeared alternately, as if the entire world was being reshaped in their battle.

"Hoo hoo?"

Esdeath's breathing became rapid, but the blush on her face grew more pronounced, as if the greater the danger, the more excited she became.

She retreated continuously, her counterattacks became slower, but the fighting spirit in her eyes did not diminish at all, as if she was enjoying the feeling of being suppressed.

In contrast, Sakazuki's attacks became increasingly fierce, and the temperature of his magma fists seemed to rise even higher, making Esdeath feel a chill with every strike.

"That's it! This is the battle I've always longed for!" Esdeath roared, her voice filled with excitement. "See where my limits are!"

Sakazuki snorted and unleashed another full-force attack. Esdeath barely managed to block it, but the immense impact sent her flying backward, carving a long furrow in the ground.

Esdeath stood up, panting heavily, then suddenly leaped back, widening the distance between herself and Sakazuki. A resolute glint flashed in her eyes, and a chilling aura began to gather rapidly around her.

Sakazuki narrowed his eyes, sensing the powerful aura his opponent was about to unleash. He took a step back with his right foot and slammed it into the ground.

"Hound of the Underworld!" Sakazuki roared, his entire body instantly covered in scalding magma, his form contorting in the intense heat.

"Ice Storm!" Esdeath shouted, and countless sharp ice blades instantly materialized around her. The air was bitterly cold, and even the moisture in the air condensed into ice crystals in an instant.

The two began to gather their strength simultaneously, and the temperature in the air changed drastically, as if the whole world was trembling in anticipation of the impending collision.

The next moment, the two of them erupted simultaneously, rushing towards each other like two bolts of lightning.

Two extreme forces met in mid-air.

The raging ice and snow collided instantly with the scorching magma, unleashing a deafening roar.

"boom!"

A terrifying shockwave emanated from the two figures, spreading outwards and causing the earth to crack and mountains to collapse in its wake. The entire battlefield seemed to have been torn apart by an invisible giant hand, forming a massive circular canyon.

As the smoke cleared, Sakazuki and Esdeath were thrown back a thousand meters by the immense force of the impact, standing at opposite ends of the canyon. Between them lay a chaotic wasteland, where ice and lava intertwined, creating an apocalyptic scene.

In the distance, the Night Raid members scrambled to their feet from the ruins, having been thrown hundreds of meters by the aftershocks, their bodies covered in dust.

"Damn, what kind of monsters are fighting?" Leona coughed, her eyes wide with shock. "Who won?"

Tatsumi stood still, his gaze fixed on the distant battlefield. A complex emotion suddenly welled up within him; he even felt a pang of reluctance to see Esdeath lose.

As the last wisp of smoke dissipated, the two figures gradually became clear.

Sakazuki's upper body was covered by a thick layer of ice, but he remained standing, while Esdeath knelt on the ground with a terrible penetrating wound in her abdomen from which blood continued to gush.

Esdeath looked up at Sakazuki, a slight smile still playing on her lips: "What an exciting battle."

Sakazuki shifted slightly, and the ice covering his body shattered instantly, turning into countless ice crystals that drifted into the air. He coldly stared at Esdeath: "It's over."

Just then, Esdeath suddenly revealed a strange smile: "Yes, it's over!"

Sakazuki's pupils contracted sharply as he felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"Mahāpratimāra!!"
