One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, opening the Eight Gates

The surrounding seawater was instantly evaporated, turning into steam that filled the sky!

"Gudong..."

The members of the Red-Haired Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, who were in the distance, all swallowed hard as they looked at the terrifying scene before them, which resembled the end of the world.

His face was filled with boundless horror.

terrible!

This demon child Lynn is an absolute monster!

With a single strike, a main naval warship, along with two admiral candidates, was completely destroyed.

"Lynn, what exactly are you trying to do..."

Kaido's enormous dragon head eyes were filled with confusion.

Lynn hovered in mid-air, her small body swaying slightly, her face deathly pale.

He felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and his consciousness began to blur.

That single shot, the Demonic Light Cannon infused with the power of the Gate of Death, almost completely drained the last bit of strength from his body.

He can barely maintain flight now.

The blood-red steam dissipated completely.

The state of the Eight Gates Formation - Death Gate can no longer be maintained.

That imposing, blood-red Susanoo has long since vanished.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully defeating a Shichibukai-level character (Marine Admiral Candidate Chaton)!]

[Mission 3: Defeat four characters of Shichibukai rank or higher (4/4)! Mission Complete!]

[Congratulations, host, you have received the mission reward: Ultimate Ninja Technique!]

Ultra Instinct: A supreme state of mastery that allows one to evade any attack. The body's various parts move reflexively based on their own judgment and senses, without the need for conscious control. Activation requires Conqueror's Haki.

Chapter 54: Unleashing Ultra Instinct, Easily Dodging the Attacks of the Four Emperors?!

A series of cold system notifications rang in Lynn's mind.

Lynn, who was on the verge of fainting, suddenly perked up when he heard the notification sound!

Ultra Instinct?!

And it even consumes Conqueror's Haki?!

Lynn was overjoyed!

Although he is now exhausted, he still has a considerable amount of Conqueror's Haki left, thanks to the rewards he has earned from completing missions over this period of time!

This is simply a timely help!

"Yeah!"

Lynn exclaimed excitedly, a childlike smile spreading across her small face.

No hesitation!

With a thought, Lynn activated the [Ultra Instinct] technique he had just acquired!

hum-

An indescribable, wondrous fluctuation quietly spread out from Lynn's small body.

It lacked the destructive and violent aura that had accompanied the opening of the Eight Gates before.

It also lacked the suffocating sense of oppression that comes with rising crimson steam.

At this moment, Lynn looked... even somewhat calm.

His face, which had turned bright red from exhaustion, gradually regained some color, but he still looked visibly tired.

Fine beads of sweat were still on his forehead, and his breathing was still somewhat rapid.

However, even in this seemingly weak state, an indescribable aura emanated from him.

His once jet-black hair had changed color inch by inch.

His head was covered in dazzling silver hair, like moonlight, with a faint silver halo flowing over his small head.

Those dark eyes had become exceptionally clear, with a faint silvery-white light shimmering deep within their pupils, as profound as the stars.

He made no unnecessary movements, nor did he emit any bursts of air.

But it gives people a feeling of... ethereal, misty, and harmonious harmony.

It was as if he had become one with the surrounding world, the howling sea breeze, and the surging waves.

His small body was still suspended in mid-air, but it no longer felt like he was being supported by brute force.

It's like... a feather, gently lifted by the wind, leaving no trace.

"What...what is going on?!"

"That brat... what happened to him?!"

"Hair...changed color?!"

The members of the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates, who were watching from a distance, stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

They could clearly sense that Lynn's aura had undergone some fundamental change.

But they couldn't say exactly what the changes were.

It just feels... really weird! Extremely weird!

"Orororo... Hmm?"

Kaido's massive dragon head tilted slightly, its eyes filled with confusion and... a faint sense of anticipation.

He could sense that Lynn's strength hadn't recovered much.

But this sudden, fresh aura... is very unusual!

"This kid..."

Shanks frowned, his keen Observation Haki clearly capturing every subtle change in Lynn.

Physical strength is still lacking.

But that aura... that feeling that seemed to exist independently of heaven and earth, yet was in harmony with all things...

This set off alarm bells in his mind!

"I've never seen such methods before..."

The white-bearded man's deep gaze was fixed on Lynn, and for the first time, his weathered face showed such focused and inquisitive expression.

This kid always manages to bring him "surprises"!

Just when everyone was shocked and confused.

Shanks has made his move!

He couldn't wait any longer!

This kid is too weird! The endless stream of strange abilities made him feel a chill down his spine!

It must be resolved quickly!

This farce must end now!

"You brat! I don't care what tricks you're up to this time!"

"That's it!"

Shanks unleashed his Conqueror's Haki once again without reservation!

He raised his famous sword, Griffin, high in the air!

The blade's tip points straight to the sky!

Black lightning bolts coiled around it, crackling and popping!

"God's death!!!"

Another "Godfall"!

More ferocious and violent than before!

Thousands upon thousands of terrifying sword energies, imbued with ultimate Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, descended like a doomsday judgment from the heavens!

It transformed into an impenetrable prison of swords, descending upon Lynn, who seemed to be on his last legs!

This attack was no less powerful than when he clashed with Lynn "Night Grace" earlier!

Even more so because of Shanks' determination to decide the outcome with a single blow! Even more ruthless!

"It's over!"

"That brat is dead meat!"

"In this state, how could he possibly withstand the captain's 'Godfall'?!"

To the crew of the Red-Haired Pirates, Lynn was merely putting on a show of bravado at the last gasp!

If this attack is launched, defeat is inevitable!

Even Kaido's enormous dragon eyes were once again filled with anxiety and worry!

He was about to rush forward to rescue them without hesitation.

however.

next second.

Faced with that overwhelming, terrifying sword prison, powerful enough to destroy the island!

Lynn floated in mid-air, seemingly about to fall.

Moved.

He did not unleash any earth-shattering power.

He also failed to summon the ferocious Susanoo.

He simply... tilted his small body slightly to one side.

Correct!

Just like that, so casually, with a slight tilt!

It seemed as if she had simply adjusted her posture unintentionally.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—! ! ! !

Those thousands upon thousands of terrifying sword energies, powerful enough to tear apart steel and cleave mountains, actually... actually all narrowly missed him!

Not a single one!

Even the slightest wisp of sword energy!

I was able to touch the hem of his clothes!

His figure moved nimbly and agilely amidst the rain of swords.

He was like a fallen leaf in a raging storm, rising and falling with the waves, yet never getting caught up in them.

It's like a butterfly dancing in a storm, its wings fluttering slightly to precisely avoid every raindrop!

That feeling...

Words cannot describe it!

can only say……

Amazing!

Unbelievable!

"Wha...what?!"
