Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

Kuina drew her twin swords, lightning flashing at the tips of the blades.

"But this battle will probably not be easy."

Tiger looked solemnly at the more vice admirals from the Navy Headquarters who were rushing from the distant coast, and at the former admiral with a gold epaulette on his shoulder flying in the sky.

"I want the two strongest ones, and you guys figure out the rest, hahaha!"

Sakura laughed as she charged toward Sakazuki, simultaneously drawing her Cloud Reaper and unleashing a slash at Zephyr in the sky.

"Mo, Sakura-neechan is really mean-spirited!"

With a gritted jaw, Kuina stabbed at the flying squirrel and the oni spider, who also wielded knives.

"Oh, are you giving me the rest?"

Tiger was taken aback and turned to look at Lieutenant General Tsuru standing on the island in front of the main gate, along with Fire Mountain and Doberman following behind her.

"Hahaha, you guys really can't do without me, can you!"

A strange laugh mixed with lightning pierced the earth as Enel landed directly on the main gate of Enies Lobby.

Opposite Sakura and the others, Akainu, who had been waiting for a long time, clenched his fists. "The Other Shore Pirates, in the name of justice, today we will annihilate you scum of the sea!!!"

"If you can do it, then come on, Navy!!!"

In a daze, dark lightning, like the branches of a giant tree, shot towards the sky, its violent aura illuminating the entire sea along with the cries of countless people.

"Retreat! All officers below the rank of Major General, retreat to your cabins! Do not look directly at the spider lilies!"

On dozens of ships, Vice Admiral Dalmesia, who was in charge of the operation on the warship, loudly issued orders to the fleet behind him.

However, even for the Navy, which is known for its strict discipline, it still takes time from receiving an order to carrying it out. In that brief moment, the impact of Conqueror's Haki had already arrived.

Many naval officers lost consciousness instantly, and soldiers carrying ammunition fainted, causing the ammunition to explode on the warships. Four or five warships caught fire, causing even greater chaos.

"Don't be so arrogant, Lycoris radiata!"

As Zephyr spun through the air, his sharp, powerful kicks, imbued with an aura capable of internal destruction, came crashing down upon the target.

Sakura raised her fist and shattered Zephyr's slash. "It's useless, Zephyr-sensei."

"You've already learned internal sabotage?" Zephyr's pupils contracted, then veins bulged on his forehead. "And who else is your teacher!"

"Hmph, so you really do have students all over the world!"

Sakazuki, who had risen up with his magma fist raised, glanced back at Zeff and made a joke.

"You little bastard!"

Zephyr clenched his fist with one hand, a rich Armament Haki coating it, and threw a punch.

Faced with the combined attack of the two, Sakura gripped the Cloud Sword with both hands. The gas collided and ionized under the high temperature, injecting into the sword and causing it to generate lightning.

After applying Armament Haki, he swung his sword forcefully at the two of them.

—The Mighty Kingdom's Blazing Sword!

when!

Zephyr's fist collided with Sakura's sword, and the raging shockwave caused the dust on the ground to be blown into a ring shape.

Meanwhile, Akainu seized the opportunity to attack Sakura.

His arm turned into lava, then he transformed the lava arm into the shape of a dog's head and stretched it out.

"Dog bites Guren!"

The lava-formed dog head opened its massive jaws and lunged at Zephyr and Sakura.

The scorching, pulsating magma, glowing crimson, engulfed the two, and an explosion erupted!

The extremely high temperatures turned the ground into scorched earth, and the thick fumes from the sulfides were extremely toxic. In just a short moment, a piece of normal land was transformed into a hellish place that ordinary people could not live in.

"You bastard Sakazuki, are you planning to kill me too?"

Zephyr, covered in a dark and domineering aura, snorted coldly and broke free from the lava.

"Where's that guy?"

Sakazuki paid no attention to Zephyr; he was only focused on killing the enemy.

"How could such a powerful master be so easy to deal with!"

With his arms crossed, Zephyr shook off the lava on his body and slowly deactivated his Armament Haki hardening.

In the lava pool in front of the two, the figure of a girl slowly stood up.

"That's a nice hot bath~, but I can't let you stay hot like this."

Sakura stretched her joints and glanced at Kuina and Tiger, who were fighting hard in the distance.

"Then, let's give it our all after so long!"

A terrifying chill spread, causing the pink hair and emerald eyes to fade and turn snow-white.

—Heat Fruit, Low Temperature Mode, Snow White Body!

Chapter 225 The Power to Glance into the Future

"Dual Sword Style: Death - Flame Lightning Slash!"

Kuina's body, which was covered in wounds, crackled with lightning.

Lightning Release chakra stimulates her body, combined with her superhuman physique.

The blade light, mixed with death energy, almost converged into a straight line, leaving a sharp trail in the void.

when!

The flying squirrel raised its sword to block, and Armament Haki penetrated the blade to shock Kuina, attempting to break her will.

However, the deathly aura emanating from Muramasa countered it, instead corroding his sword and piercing the soul of the flying squirrel with the curse from the demon sword.

"Such a young demon swordsman?"

The three longswords clashed and sparked, leaving a few bloody marks on the flying squirrel's arm.

"Tsk, was the cut too lenient?"

Guina frowned, clutching the wound on her waist in equal pain.

"Damn pirates, die!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the two were fighting, Onigumo used Life Return to manipulate his hair, and the eight spider-like hair drew a sword from his waist and rushed towards Kuina.

"not good!"

Sensing the danger approaching from behind with her Observation Haki, Kuina initially intended to turn and retreat.

However, the flying squirrel in front of him swung his katana with great force, forcing Kuina to use her twin swords crossed to defend herself, resulting in a stalemate in the struggle.

Onigumo's body emanated an aura of dominance, which enveloped and stained all his swords black. He then leaped high into the air, all the blades aimed at Kuina.

"Eight-Sword Style: Thrust!"

The towering body, aided by gravity, plummeted rapidly amidst a roar.

At this critical moment.

A flash of lightning suddenly appeared amidst the dark clouds, and a fierce wind raged as if wailing; it was in such weather.

Along with the torrential rain, Enel transformed into lightning.

The Onigumo, who flew the highest in the entire arena and carried eight metal swords, undoubtedly became the first sacrifice to fall with the lightning.

Boom! ! !

A rainbow flashed in Onigumo's pupils, a warning sign of Observation Haki, but it couldn't outrun the speed of light.

Then, dazzling lightning filled his eyes, and dozens of bolts of lightning concentrated on his body.

Almost instantly, he was chopped into a charred corpse and blasted away, his fate unknown.

"Oni Spider..."

Lieutenant General Tsuru, who was besieging Tiger alongside Fire Mountain and Bernard, also noticed the scene in the distance and frowned.

Unexpectedly, less than half an hour after the battle began, the first lieutenant general was eliminated.

However, this strengthened her resolve not to let the Other Shore Pirates go, and she unleashed her Armament Haki, gradually becoming more ruthless in her attacks.

"That Enel guy, with all this fuss, isn't all the pressure falling on me?"

Tiger smiled bitterly, his muscles tensing to stop the bleeding from his wounds. His red skin was stained black by Armament Haki, and Water Release chakra created a flood beneath his feet.

The boost from Water Release chakra was undoubtedly enormous, allowing him to create water currents on the shore and significantly increase the power of Fishman Karate.

Especially considering that one of his opponents is a person with superpowers!

—Mermaid Contortion: Super Current!

Without needing to use teleportation techniques to compress water, this skill alone can compress tons of water into a massive tidal wave, blotting out the sky and crashing down on the enemy in front of him.

"Oh no, Ms. He, get out of the way!"

Doberman and Fire Mountain, who were approaching Tiger with their large swords, turned around at the same time and loudly reminded the old man behind them.

"You two brats, take care of yourselves first. I'm not so old that I can't fight anymore!"

The crane had already taken flight on moonlight, but her gaze instead turned to Doberman and Fire Mountain, which were submerged in the floodwaters.

Just as the two were about to answer Lieutenant General Tsuru, they suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold.

Then, a sudden change occurred.

The wind and frost swept across the extremely cold, icy fog, and the water flowed rapidly under the cover of frost and snow.

Ice surges up, revealing the frozen earth beneath the gushing cold currents.

Frosty splendor sings, the snow kingdom is born!

An irresistible aura of Conqueror's Haki followed closely behind, forcing everyone present to focus their attention on the pure white girl who lightly grasped the ice and snow.

"Whoo~"

Sakura exhaled a long white mist, and with each light step, the chilling frost spread unchecked.

The magma on the island had long since solidified into hard obsidian under the plundering power of this unreasonable heat.

Ahead of her, Sakazuki frowned deeply. "How could this be so terrifying? Has this monster's Devil Fruit awakened?"

"No, it doesn't have that feeling of distorting matter wantonly like when a fruit awakens."

Zephyr raised his hand, looking at his arm where frost was constantly appearing. Armament Haki surged up, and he clenched his fist, shattering the ice.

Sakazuki glanced silently at the extinguished lava in his hand, and suddenly regretted not listening to Zephyr's advice back then and honing his Armament Haki to its fullest potential.

"It's not too late. Domineering spirit can be honed in battle, and it's never too late to start honing it!"

Zefa walked over to him and whispered words of comfort.

Sakazuki snorted coldly, his Armament Haki swirling around him as he forcefully crushed the rubble in his hand.

"Up!"

With a loud shout, the two launched another attack on Sakura, but this time the attack was led by Zephyr.

Amidst the wind, snow, and thunder, the domineering radiance broke through all obstacles, rushing straight towards the queen standing amidst the ice and snow.

"You're quite capable, Teacher Zefa!"

Sakura put away the Cloud Reaper, raised her hands, and clenched her black fists.

"Don't call me teacher, and... old soldiers never die, kid!"

With a wild smile on his lips, Zephyr charged in front of Sakura and slammed his fist down with overwhelming force.

Sakura, not to be outdone, retaliated with a punch.

Zephyr, who was originally in mid-air, took a strange step to the right, easily dodging Sakura's punch, and then smashed his sharp iron fist into Sakura's abdomen, sending her flying backward and embedding her into the ground.

"Cough cough, what a troublesome old man."

Sakura, who was in the pit, pushed aside the frozen soil and stood up, raising her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

It was obvious from that attack that Zephyr had already sensed the direction of her attack before Sakura's Observation Haki could react.
