Chapter 152: Overlord Egyptian God!
“Magnetic Field Rotation 1.5 million horsepower—Egyptian God Cards Thunderbolt!”
“Kou ya!”
As soon as she made her move, Aoxi directly unleashed a bolt of shocking thunder that struck Marco down from the sky.
I won’t allow anyone to fly higher than me.jpg
“Tch! What strong attack power!”
“Although it’s also a Mythical Zoan, Marco’s ability leans toward healing, which makes this a bit tricky.”
“To think he can control lightning, what kind of mythical beast is this arrogant brat exactly?”
Since Aoxi had only revealed a pair of wings from start to finish, the others couldn’t figure out what kind of mythical beast she was.
They might have even suspected she was a Logia thunder fruit ability user if not for those wings.
……
Mythical Zoan—the rarest and most versatile Devil Fruit ability.
Even the nominally strongest Logia, its ability users often face the helpless situation of over-relying on their fruit ability, making their Haki and physique weak points.
After all, not everyone is a Navy Admiral, and developing Logia abilities is often more difficult than the other two types.
But Mythical Zoan makes up for this perfectly.
While possessing special abilities of Superhuman or Logia types, it also comes with a super strong physique far surpassing ordinary Zoan……
It could almost be called the perfect fruit that combines the strengths of Logia, Superhuman, and Zoan—a true version answer.
“Tch! What the hell is this thing.”
Marco, struck down, clutched his head, unsteady on his feet.
Normally, as the Phoenix fruit ability user, his flames could heal almost any damage.
Even because the healing process is so rapid, first-time observers might mistake it for Logia-style elementalization to avoid damage.
But this time, Marco’s usually invincible recovery power failed…… He found a strange power on Aoxi’s lightning.
Even though the lightning damage on his body healed quickly, Marco still felt dizzy and nauseous, as if not just the exterior but something deeper inside had been struck.
Marco’s expression grew increasingly serious; he was being countered.
Aoxi wasn’t just a pure physical fighter, but a mage with noble magic damage……
“Pirate Big Iron Fist!”
……dude.
“Shining Impact!”
Seeing Aoxi swinging her small fist straight at the still-dazed Marco, Jozu immediately drove his massive body to block in front of him.
“Ping!”
Jozu’s right half suddenly gleamed, followed by an iron mountain lean crashing toward Aoxi.
“Hm?”
“This is……diamond?”
The hard sensation from her fist let Aoxi immediately guess the opponent’s ability.
“Heh~ Flowers and diamonds, you guys wouldn’t happen to be the kind of pirate crew that specializes in pleasing women?”
“Don’t insult the Whitebeard Pirates’ fame!”
Hearing Aoxi’s teasing, Jozu stomped the ground hard, trying to use the force to shove her flying.
But Aoxi’s small figure didn’t budge an inch.
“Weak, weak!”
“This little strength of yours is way below my sister!”
“Behold my Crimson Lotus—Snail Rock!”
Aoxi unleashed the same move she used against Burufaruto back then, with crimson Haki beginning to rotate around her fist.
“This feeling is……Haki?!”
“Her Haki is actually visible to the naked eye! And it has color!”
“What a weird brat! Jozu is in danger…”
The Haki wrapping Aoxi’s arm spun faster and faster, gradually turning into a red drill bit.
“Urgh!”
This highly penetrating move quickly broke through Jozu’s defense, and a violent force invaded his body, wreaking havoc inside.
“Jozu!”
Marco, having recovered, saw Jozu blocking in front of him. Though the man was in agony and being pushed back steadily, he showed no intention of dodging.
He stood like an iron wall, firmly protecting Marco behind him.
“Damn it!”
The Phoenix young man didn’t hesitate, flying over the two locked in stalemate and kicking at the unguarded Aoxi from behind.
“Phoenix Seal!”
“Wooden clod! Back attacks are useless!”
“Dragon Cloud Heaven-Shaking Wings!”
Aoxi’s wings suddenly exerted force, forming a fierce storm behind her that instantly repelled Marco.
“Damn, not a single flaw or gap.”
Marco tumbled several times in the sky before barely steadying himself.
No blind spots! Aoxi right now was too well-rounded.
But seeing Marco had recovered, Jozu stopped forcing it and took a back step to break contact with Aoxi.
Clutching his now powerless right arm, Jozu rejoined Marco.
“You okay?”
“I’m fine.”
“What a terrifying brat…”
“Speed, power, Haki, Devil Fruit ability……almost no weaknesses at all. How does she do it?”
Actually, there was one—Aoxi’s only weakness was her lack of combat experience, making her prone to falling into traps against seasoned opponents.
Unfortunately, the barely teen Marco and Jozu weren’t much better.
Marco could even be tricked by Kaido with just a few words.
With a tacit glance at each other, the two quickly devised their next attack strategy.
Screech~
Pika~
A sharp bird cry and diamond gleam flashed across the deck simultaneously as Marco and Jozu appeared at Aoxi’s sides in an instant.
“Hah!”
The Phoenix and diamond giant attacked from left and right at the seemingly defenseless Aoxi, who stood there casually with arms crossed.
Lightning-fast dual strikes crossed over Aoxi, but both men’s faces changed drastically.
No impact sensation at all!
“An afterimage?!”
“Not anymore~”
A voice rang eerily beside Marco and Jozu’s ears. Aoxi, back in place, grabbed both their heads with one hand each, then……
Bang!!!
The dazed duo were casually tossed aside as Aoxi dusted her hands boringly:
“Just this level~ Got anything more fun?”
“Or how about you, Nose-hair Uncle, come spar with me?”
Aoxi crooked a finger at Whitebeard, still sitting imposingly in the main seat.
“Gurahaha! What an unexpected brat……but my sons won’t go down so easily.”
Sure enough, just as Whitebeard finished speaking, Marco and Jozu shakily stood back up.
“Brat, to challenge our king, you gotta get past us first.”
“With me here, you won’t touch Old Man!”
The two cracked their necks and blocked Aoxi again.
“Pretty tough heads~”
“But your grandpa Aoxi specializes in curing disobedience~ Come at me together!”
Facing the provocation, the Whitebeard Pirates’ twin stars didn’t move lightly this time.
Both knew this smirking brat far surpassed them in power and speed.
Against this hexagonal warrior, the only way was to attack their strengths with your own.
“Don’t overthink it, Jozu. To beat her now, we can only concentrate power for a frontal breakthrough!”
“That move?”
“Yeah, no choice at this point!”
As Marco spoke, his body ignited in cerulean flames, fully transforming into Phoenix Form and perching on Jozu’s left shoulder.
“Oh? A combo ultimate technique?”
Aoxi watched with interest, not interrupting.
“Brat, watch closely!”
“Our ultimate fusion technique after racking our brains!”
“Fusion? You wouldn’t be about to perform some yaoi nonsense in front of me, right?”
Ignoring Aoxi, Marco and Jozu erupted with full aura!
“Haaah!!!”
With a roar, Phoenix flames instantly enveloped them both.
Jozu now looked like a blue flame giant, with his glittering diamondized true body faintly visible inside the flames.
“Take this!”*2
“Indestructible Diamond!（Indestructible Diamond!）”*2
Supreme physical damage, invincible hardness defense, plus infinite regen damage shield……this was the blood-boiling combo from the future strongest man’s left and right arms!
Charging at Aoxi, their momentum surged wildly!!!
Their power now was fifty or even forty-nine times stronger than ever combined!
What could stop them! Hell, what could stop them!!!
……
“Whoa~”
“How interesting!”
Seeing this, Aoxi finally took some interest.
She lightly flapped her wings, turning into a reverse-flying crimson meteor and instantly appearing hundreds of meters in the high altitude.
“Don’t run!”
The flame giant stomped the deck, rocketing skyward at extreme speed with nearly twenty-meter flame wings sprouting from his back, determined to shoot down that crimson demon star overhead!
“Run?”
“The one who should run isn’t me!”
Watching the flame giant grow larger in her pupils, Aoxi crossed her arms, her back wings spreading to their limit.
Boiling divine power flowed over the wing surfaces, instantly turning the entire pair into crimson light that dominated the sky!
At the same time, as Aoxi charged, the surroundings darkened, golden lightning-flecked storm clouds gradually filling the entire view.
Below, the crowd looked up, red and gold lights alternating in their pupils.
“Th-this?!”
“What kind of monster is she?!”
“How can there be such a terrifying Mythical Zoan?!”
……
“This is that time’s…”
Embers narrowed his eyes at the familiar phenomenon in the sky.
“Uro-ro-ro-ro! Good! Good! Aoxi this brat is just too awesome!”
Kaido was so excited he could barely contain himself, even wanting to go up and experience Aoxi’s power personally.
“Hm……terrifying brat.”
Whitebeard stared dead at the sky, his right hand secretly clenching into a fist.
He was ready to interrupt the fight at any moment.
The boy named Teach said nothing, silently lurking in the corner watching, strange light flickering in his eyes.
……
“H-hey! You’re kidding!”
Mid-air Marco and Jozu gaped, staring dumbly at Aoxi’s seemingly endless massive wings.
“Hoo~”
As Aoxi exhaled lightly in the sky, surrounding golden lightning particles activated, many gathering into bolts that struck the sea surface.
“Crackle!”
A shocking thunder exploded beside Marco and Jozu’s ears, making their flames flicker unstably and slowing their movements involuntarily.
“Marco, you okay?”
“I’m fine, don’t worry.”
“Let’s rush up, we can’t let that brat finish charging.”
“Got it!”
Wings flames surged again, but the horrific pressure from above kept them from advancing another step no matter what.
Their bodies instinctively resisted approaching.
You may only go this far, do not pass.jpg
“Damn!!”
Anxious Marco and Jozu gritted their teeth, desperately forcing their bodies, but still couldn’t move.
Overhead, crimson wings blotted out the sky.
Below, brilliant golden divine thunder scourged the earth.
Before them, the red-haired golden-eyed girl had opened her mouth.
Zzzt~
Beep!
Beep…beep…beep!!
Beep·beep·beep·beep·beep!!!
Strange beeping echoed in the air, its frequency speeding up over time.
Though unheard before, everyone instinctively knew it was the sound of energy gathering and compressing.
Countless golden lightning particles converged into Aoxi’s mouth from all directions, scattering blinding light.
At this moment, everyone below seemed to see an unimaginably huge red phantom appear behind Aoxi.
It was a red giant dragon with two mouths; the crowd could only glimpse scales and claws, as if the vast sky couldn’t contain its body.
“Superconducting Wave—”
The giant dragon’s maw opened, golden breath ready to unleash.
“Marco, Jozu! Dodge now!”
“You’ll die!”
“Old Man! Go save them quick!”
Whitebeard was of course ready to act, invisible shockwaves gathering in his right hand.
But as he prepared to swing, Kaido grabbed his arm.
“Kaido!”
In that instant’s delay, it was already too late.
“—Thunder Cannon!”
Blinding light stole everyone’s vision; the golden torrent, after extreme compression, poured downward, instantly disintegrating and vaporizing nearly everything in its path.
That golden breath made souls tremble even from afar.
The sea was sliced open in a massive gash without resistance, and Pickle Island nearby lost a third directly.
Vast seawater evaporated under the heat, enveloping everything above.
The last sight everyone saw was Marco and Jozu’s figures vanishing into the breath’s light……
But before the crowd recovered from the aftermath, a terrifying aura suddenly erupted on the Moby Dick!
“Kaido!”
Whitebeard—enraged.
A Conqueror’s Haki-wrapped fist stacked with world-shattering vibration power slammed into Kaido’s chest.
The strongest man’s wrathful blow far exceeded their earlier spar.
Pop~!
Crack—!
This time Kaido flew off without even a sound.
Air Shock aftermath plus Kaido’s impact smashed a huge gash in the Moby Dick’s starboard side like a meteor strike.
Kaido himself was knocked back onto the island.
Not flying this time, but like a high-speed derailed bullet train, plowing a deep trench straight into the opposite mountain wall.
Boom!!!
The island’s ring-shaped mountain wall finally collapsed.
Countless boulders fell, burying the uncertain Kaido completely.
“Mr. Kaido!”
Embers, realizing what happened, flew madly toward Kaido’s burial site.
Whitebeard saw it, but rage over his son’s death fully dominated him, and he prepared a second punch.
Zzzt~
The sound of atmosphere burning flashed, followed by a exquisite golden obelisk at his throat.
“Can I take this as a declaration of war on the Beasts Pirates? Edward Newgate.”
Two-in-one chapter, kept together for battle continuity. Also went house-hunting tonight, so a bit late.
