Starting as a pirate, he rose to become the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society.

Chapter 125 Charlotte Linlin's Terrifying Nature!

With a single punch, Garp broke through Kaido's Eight Precepts. As he laughed, he hooked his foot and flung Bane, who was radiating "Kingly Aura," dozens of meters away.

They showed absolutely no respect to this "king".

Kaido then took back the Eight Precepts and stood in front of Garp, his gaze fixed on Bane, who had been flung away.

A murderous glint flashed in his eyes. He knew that this was the best time to kill Bane. If he missed it, a terrifying figure might appear on this sea in the future.

But soon, the murderous intent in his eyes dissipated, replaced by an expectant look.

"That's good too. It would be too boring if the sea were just full of old fogies like you," Kaido said with a grin.

The talent that Bane is showing right now is enough to make me think about how far he will grow in the future.

Will he surpass himself?

Could it be Joy Boy?

"You seem to know quite a bit, pirate," Garp grinned, "This world belongs to the young!"

The moment the words left his mouth, Garp swung his iron fist again, striking Kaido. Kaido, no longer paying attention to Bane, quickly engaged Garp in fierce combat once more.

Not far away, the terrifying Conqueror's Haki on Bane's body gradually dissipated. He grimaced as he clutched his severed arm, forcibly prying the broken bones back together, watching as black smoke gradually rose from the joint.

"A world-class powerhouse... he really is quite formidable," Bane muttered.

However, a smile soon appeared on his lips. Kaido truly lives up to his reputation as a master teacher of our time; he has finally mastered Conqueror's Haki!

Thinking of this, Bane clenched his fist and focused on feeling this new power. He thought that the conqueror's haunting would be difficult, but in reality, the feeling was not complicated. It was just like using armor haunting, except that the original haunting was replaced with conqueror's haunting.

As his thoughts settled, a Conqueror's Haki aura appeared on Bane's fist.

"Are you alright?" Tina quickly appeared beside Bane, standing protectively by his side as she asked.

"It's nothing. I just need to rest for a little while," Bane said, shaking his head.

At this moment, his Dark-Dark Fruit power was rapidly activating, enveloping all his injuries. Looking at him, Bane looked like someone pulled out of the abyss, surrounded by billowing black smoke. The bloody wounds on his body were healing quickly, and even his broken arm had been set.

"Your abilities are truly terrifying, comparable to that phoenix." Tina couldn't help but comment as she looked at Bane's rapidly healing wounds.

"That's still a long way off," Bane laughed.

Marco's phoenix is ​​truly amazing. Even if his head is twisted off and he's shattered into pieces, as long as he still has the strength to support the operation of his Devil Fruit power, he can recover from all these injuries.

Although Bane's Dark-Dark Fruit is very powerful, if he is beheaded or torn to pieces, he will only die.

After all, these are different concepts. He can only heal himself, not be immortal. Kaido seized on this point and attacked him relentlessly, bringing him to this point without giving him any chance for a "protracted war".

While recovering from his injuries, Bane also quickly surveyed the battlefield.

Why isn't Shiki coming down yet? It seems he really doesn't intend to participate in the war? Is he just a 'transporter'?

However, this is not impossible. If Shiki doesn't take action, he won't expose his problems, and as long as he doesn't expose his problems, he will still be the legendary top-tier pirate.

Conversely, if he makes a move but fails to demonstrate the strength that everyone expects of him, his prestige and reputation will be quickly shattered, and the aura of a legendary pirate will dim.

Perhaps it is because of this consideration that Shiki has not made a move or shown his face much so far.

Bane suspected that this guy might not actually make a move.

Aside from Shiki, the Navy still holds the overall advantage. The Seven Warlords of the Sea are indeed unreliable; not a single one of them has participated in the war, and they are all watching from the sidelines. Only Mihawk occasionally looks up at the sky, seemingly with some expectation in his eyes.

The Fleet Admiral Sengoku remained calm and composed; the Seven Warlords of the Sea showed no intention of participating in the war, and he made no attempt to urge or issue any orders.

Perhaps Fleet Admiral Sengoku felt that the navy's strength was sufficient to handle the current situation, and that the Seven Warlords of the Sea not intervening would allow the world to better recognize the navy's power!

Charlotte Linlin did not disappoint Bane. The old woman was ridiculously strong, fighting against two generals by herself. Although she was at a disadvantage, she showed no signs of defeat. With her body of steel, she withstood the combined ice and fire attacks of Sakazuki and Kuzan.

But after observing her closely, Bane was surprised to find that Charlotte Linlin not only showed no signs of defeat, but instead displayed a trend of becoming stronger as the battle progressed!

Soon, Bane noticed the reason for this: Charlotte Linlin was constantly devouring the souls on the battlefield. The pirates and marines who died in battle would become her nourishment. By devouring souls, Charlotte Linlin was able to temporarily use this soul power to strengthen herself.

This reminded Bane of Charlotte Linlin's method of developing her abilities: sacrificing her soul to enhance her physical strength.

At this moment, Charlotte Linlin was not using her own soul, but the souls of the people on the battlefield. Although it seemed less efficient than sacrificing her own soul, it still had a certain effect.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"I knew it! That old woman looks even taller than when she first joined the war!" Bane thought to himself.

Charlotte Linlin was originally 8.8 meters tall, even more terrifying than Kaido, but now, at a glance, she is almost 10 meters tall and has become even fatter!

Sakazuki and Kuzan, who are both over three meters tall, look like toddlers in front of her!

"We cannot fight Charlotte Linlin in such a large battlefield, especially not in a prolonged battle, otherwise she will only get stronger as the battle progresses." Bane quickly memorized this information.

Moreover, if Charlotte Linlin could achieve this level of strength on the battlefield prepared by the Navy, she would probably be even more ridiculously strong in Totto Land, her own stronghold.

After all, that place has been a source of a lot of soul power for her all year round, and she has also created countless Homies. In critical moments, these are all her nourishment!

Thinking about this, Bane felt that perhaps Charlotte Linlin, that old woman, would become the strongest enemy he would encounter in the New World!

"Hahahaha!" Charlotte Linlin took a punch from Sakazuki, dodged Kuzan's freezing attack, and laughed wildly with a ferocious smile on her face.

"What a delicious and appetizing soul!" Charlotte Linlin patted the lava off her body, knocking it off to reveal her charred skin and flesh.

That's right. Even someone with a body of steel would inevitably get hurt when facing a ruthless person like Sakazuki. The explosive power and attack power of magma are indeed among the strongest, not to mention that Sakazuki himself is also very powerful.

However, before the injury could even take effect, Charlotte Linlin raised her hand and grabbed a handful of eerie green soul energy, which she then pressed forcefully onto her wound.

The charred wounds, burned black by the intense heat, healed rapidly under the influence of this soul power.

Sakazuki and Kuzan watched this scene with very serious expressions. This wasn't the first time.

"It seems unlikely that we can kill her here," Kuzan said softly, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Sakazuki didn't respond, but his expression was very unpleasant. Clearly, his lack of rebuttal to Kuzan already implied something.
