Watching the four arrows chasing after her, Gunko clenched her fists and declared, "Do you think you can hit again like this?"
"Useless!!"
As her words fell, Gunko used her Devil Fruit Ability to create four arrowheads capable of altering the trajectory of attacks, then forcefully struck them against the four arrows.
"I just..." Gunko's sentence was cut short as she noticed the arrows she had redirected suddenly change course and fly back toward her!!
Gunko: ???
She had already changed their direction, so how could they still return?
After a mont of thought, Gunko infused Haki into the arrowheads and fiercely struck the four arrows.
"Clang!"
Four tallic clashes echoed as the arrows, struck by the Haki-infused attack, were sent flying and precisely embedded into the nearby Nightmare Creatures.
"Whoosh~"
"Thud!"
Nightmare Creatures: ???
Staring at the pale golden arrow feathers now protruding from their bodies, the Nightmare Creatures fell into stunned silence.
"It seems Haki can repel these things," Gunko remarked. "And when they hit other beings, the arrows lose their montum."
In that case... she would use these Nightmare Creatures as shields for her offense!
A glint of determination flashed in Gunko's eyes.
But before she could act, a pale golden long arrow shot toward her from behind, ruthlessly piercing through her!
"Thud!"
Gunko: !!!
Facing away from iser, Gunko's eyes widened in shock.
"Dammit, I let my guard down..."
Quickly creating distance by stepping on an arrowhead, Gunko fixed her gaze on iser.
Noticing her stare, iser grinned and said, "Isn't that quite useful~"
Gunko: ...
iser's words felt like a slap to Gunko's face, making her cheek twitch involuntarily.
"So, keep those kinds of comnts to yourself in the future," iser advised. "Otherwise, you might end up embarrassed."
As he spoke, iser glanced at the Nightmare Creatures impaled by the pale golden arrows.
He thought to himself, 'Perfect chance to see if this attack, akin to true damage, can finish them off.'
If the Void Chill Devouring Bow could eliminate them, it would save him the trouble of using Shadow Clones to hunt down the Devil Fruit Ability User.
"How dare you mock like this..." Gunko glared coldly at iser. "I'll make you regret it."
"I've lost count of how many tis I've heard that," iser replied, picking his ear. "But unfortunately... threats like that don't work on !"
Most of the Celestial Dragons he had killed uttered similar words before their deaths, yet it changed nothing.
This ti, Gunko ignored iser and looked down at the pale golden arrow that had pierced her.
After a mont's consideration, she infused Haki into an arrowhead and attempted to use its power to force the arrow out of her body.
After several attempts, Gunko fell silent.
"Ineffective, huh..."
Though the arrow was clearly lodged in her body, why did it feel as if it didn't exist at all?
Not only that, but even her Haki had lost its effect...
What in the world was going on?!
Filled with confusion, Gunko turned her gaze to iser and demanded, "What exactly is this thing?"
"I told you already," iser replied. "You'll find out soon enough~"
Gunko fell silent for a mont before her eyes turned cold. "Then I'll just have to eliminate you first!"
If she killed her opponent, his ability would surely cease to work!
With that thought, Gunko activated her Devil Fruit power without hesitation.
"Bzzzt~"
Countless arrowheads materialized behind Gunko, rapidly assembling into an enormous arrow!!
She then infused the arrowhead with Armant Haki.
"Hum!"
After completing this, Gunko used her Devil Fruit power to lock onto iser and launched her attack with a wave of her hand.
"Whoosh~"
The several-ter-long giant arrow carried terrifying kinetic energy as it shot toward iser below at incredible speed!!
Witnessing this, iser showed no trace of panic. Instead, he gave Gunko a mysterious smile.
Gunko: ???
What... did that an?
"Causality Lightning Storm!" iser shouted. "Detonate!"
The mont she heard iser's words, a sense of foreboding surged in Gunko's heart.
She then noticed the two arrows embedded in her body begin to glow.
Seeing this, Gunko's pupils contracted sharply.
The next instant...
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
All the golden arrows exploded simultaneously, instantly grievously wounding everyone they had struck!
"Screech!!"
The giant dragon hit by the arrows managed only a single scream before being shattered into fragnts by the force, ultimately dissolving into scattered Nightmare Energy across the land.
The sa fate befell the other struck Nightmare Creatures—none were spared!
This spectacle left the remaining Nightmare Creatures utterly stunned.
Gunko, also struck by the golden arrows, was destroyed by the Causality Lightning Storm, her upper body blown to pieces!!
"Whoosh~"
"CRASH!!"
Finally, her lower body and one arm plumted from the sky, crashing into a pile of ruins!
Glancing at the motionless corpse, iser remarked, "This ti, you should finally be dead."
Just then, the distant Nightmare Creatures let out piercing shrieks, as if mourning their fallen companions.
"Hmm?"
Noticing this, iser stroked his chin. "What's going on with these creatures?"
Puzzled, iser quickly dashed to the top of a building and stood there, surveying the scene below.
After a mont, he muttered, "The Nightmare Creatures hit by the Causality Lightning Storm show no signs of reviving...
Does this an I've actually eliminated them?
"It seems attacks that mimic true damage can finish them off," iser murmured to himself.
If that's the case... dealing with these black creatures just beca much easier.
Thinking this, iser revealed a very "kind" smile on his face, then leaped down from the heights holding a massive pale golden longbow.
"Scum, I'm coming!"
"What's going on, what exactly is happening?!!" Saint Rimoshifu roared, smashing a nearby boulder with his fork. "Why was my Nightmare Creature killed?"
How could such an immortal and indestructible creature be killed?
What the hell is going on with that Blood-Eyed Ninja?!
At that mont, the Guard Squad Leader, who had been lying on the ground having nightmares, opened his eyes and said sowhat confusedly, "I... what happened to ?"
How did he suddenly fall asleep on the ground?
Oh... right, he just had a terrifying nightmare. Fortunately...
Before he could finish his thought, he saw a strange creature appear before him.
"A ghost!"
"Bastard, you're the ghost!" Saint Rimoshifu said angrily. "I am Saint Rimoshifu!"
"Saint Rimoshifu?"
The Guard Squad Leader froze for a mont, then the other's appearance surfaced in his mind.
Before I fell asleep, there seed to be a Celestial Dragon nad Saint Rimoshifu...
Right, that lord is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit Ability User!
Thinking this, the Guard Squad Leader quickly turned around, knelt on the ground, and said, "I'm sorry, my lord!"
Looking at him, Saint Rimoshifu fell silent for a mont, thinking: 'I can't kill this guy until I figure out what's going on.'
Thinking this, Saint Rimoshifu took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Then he asked, "What exactly happened to you? Why were you able to wake up?"
"What do you an, why was I able to wake up?"
"Weren't you just asleep?" Saint Rimoshifu said. "Why did you suddenly wake up?"
The power of the Mythical Zoan Kirin Fruit can quickly put people to sleep. If the target is an ordinary person, it's absolutely impossible for them to wake up on their own!
So Saint Rimoshifu couldn't understand why this guy was able to wake up.
"Oh, I did seem to fall asleep just now," the Guard Squad Leader said, holding his head. "But... but then I seed to have a nightmare."
"Hmm... yes, I also had a nightmare just now."
"Huh?"
Hearing the voice from beside him, Saint Rimoshifu instinctively turned to look, then fell silent.
Then he muttered, "What exactly is going on?"
Why are these guards waking up one after another?
Has his Devil Fruit Ability failed?
Thinking this, Saint Rimoshifu instinctively glanced at the nearby Nightmare Nest.
The Nightmare Nest appears completely normal, which ans my ability hasn't failed, Saint Rimoshifu thought to himself.
Then the key to the problem must lie with that Blood-Eyed Ninja!
Recalling the golden arrows he had seen earlier, Saint Rimoshifu fell into deep thought.
Could it be that this power woke these guys up?
It's not impossible.
Then, Saint Rimoshifu turned his gaze to the awakened guards and said, "Tell everything you just experienced."
"Do not overlook any details."
The bewildered guards turned to Saint Rimoshifu upon hearing this, then showed expressions of shock: "What the hell is this?"
Saint Rimoshifu: ...
If these idiots weren't still useful, he'd really like to slaughter them all.
He then glanced at the Guard Squad Leader, signaling him to explain things to these fools.
Understanding imdiately, the Guard Squad Leader began explaining Saint Rimoshifu's identity to the guards, finally making them rember who he was.
"Forgive us, Saint Rimoshifu!"
Watching the guards kneel in unison, Saint Rimoshifu rubbed his forehead in frustration before saying: "Enough. Stop wasting ti and tell what just happened."
The guards looked at each other uncertainly, then turned their gazes toward the Guard Squad Leader.
Without their leader speaking first, they didn't dare say anything.
Feeling his subordinates' stares, the Guard Squad Leader remained silent for a mont before speaking: "After I inexplicably fell asleep earlier, I started having a nightmare."
"In this nightmare, there was an enormous flying dragon."
"This flying dragon chased through the forest, forcing to flee everywhere."
"Just when I thought I was about to be eaten, a huge pale golden arrow suddenly shot across the sky and pinned the dragon to a mountain in the blink of an eye!"
"After that, the dream world was struck by a massive earthquake, as if heaven and earth were about to be destroyed."
At this point, the Guard Squad Leader suddenly paused.
"And then?" Saint Rimoshifu asked.
"Then..." the Guard Squad Leader said, "Then I woke up."
After the world began collapsing, he felt so changes in his body and then jolted awake from the nightmare.
'Could it be that arrow that woke up?' the Guard Squad Leader wondered to himself.
He just didn't understand why he had such a strange dream.
Saint Rimoshifu remained silent for a mont upon hearing this, then looked at the others and asked: "What about you?"
"Similar for ," one guard said. "I dread of a giant lizard that chased through the desert for a long ti."
"It wasn't until that pale golden arrow appeared that I woke up from the nightmare."
This ti Saint Rimoshifu didn't say much, simply gesturing for the others to share their experiences.
The awakened guards began recounting their experiences, chattering as they each described their dreams.
Though the nightmare scenarios were different, they shared one startling similarity!
That was... every person who woke up had seen that pale golden arrow!
"That pale golden arrow is exactly the attack the Blood-Eyed Ninja launched earlier," said Saint Rimoshifu, holding his trident as he walked aside. "I never expected his attack could actually shatter nightmares."
Though he didn't know how the other managed it, the ninja's ability was clearly very effective against him.
This ant... relying on Nightmare Creatures with Undying Bodies to exhaust the opponent's stamina was probably impossible.
After all... the other could eliminate his Nightmare Creatures with a single arrow!
"This is truly infuriating," Saint Rimoshifu said with a furrowed brow.
Why did he have to run into such a person?
This practically rendered his abilities useless!
At this mont, Saint Rimoshifu was utterly displeased.
Just then, the Guard Squad Leader cautiously asked, "S-sir... is there anything else you need us to do?"
Hearing this, Saint Rimoshifu fell silent for a mont before thinking to himself: 'I can't let these guys leave here alive, or the weakness of my ability might be exposed!'
With this thought, an intense killing intent instantly erupted in Saint Rimoshifu's eyes.
Turning to glance at the guards, Saint Rimoshifu infused his fork with Armant Haki.
Without hesitation, he then launched an attack on the guards.
"Die!"
