His body was surrounded by a layer of blue electrical current that crept across the surface of his body, crackling and snapping with sound.
Kaido dove down toward the wooden giant like a blue teor.
"Boom!" The blow carried devastating force, and nearly half of the wooden giant's body was instantly shattered, sending countless wooden chunks flying.
Seeing this, Senju Hashirama rapidly brought his hands together, and under the power of his formidable Wood Release, the shattered portions of the wooden giant began to rapidly regenerate, and in the blink of an eye the wooden giant was restored to its complete form.
"Ha ha ha, you really are very strong." Senju Hashirama looked at Kaido and broke into a hearty laugh.
However, just as everyone thought the battle would continue its fierce intensity, Senju Hashirama made an unexpected move.
He actually dispelled the wooden giant technique, and the enormous wooden giant instantly dissolved into countless vines and scattered into the air.
"So, you want to surrender?" Kaido saw this and furrowed his brows tightly, his heart filled with bewildernt.
From what he understood of Senju Hashirama, this man before him would never surrender easily, his strength was unfathomably deep, like a bottomless sea with no visible end, impossible to read.
Senju Tobirama stood to one side and saw his older brother's action, his eyes going wide with surprise.
At that mont, the entire battlefield fell into a brief silence as everyone waited to see what Senju Hashirama would do next.
Senju Hashirama looked at Kaido, whose face was full of wariness, and suddenly the corners of his mouth turned up in a confident smile.
"Perfect timing, I never managed to complete this technique before, and now I finally have a chance to try it."
The words had barely faded when Senju Hashirama suddenly clapped both hands together, and powerful Chakra instantly spread outward in all directions with him at its center.
His body rapidly entered Sage Mode, and the aura around him grew ever more mysterious and powerful.
The ground beneath his feet began to shake violently, and countless thick vines burst up through the earth.
These vines grew at a breathtaking pace and in the blink of an eye had covered a vast stretch of land, endowing the entire earth with new life and emanating boundless vitality and vigor.
This force was so overwhelming it was suffocating, far surpassing the wooden giant technique by an unimaginable degree.
Yet Senju Hashirama's movents did not stop there.
In the next mont, those wildly growing vines seed to answer so kind of summoning force, and they converged toward his body from all directions.
The vines radiated a dense green energy that rged ceaselessly into Senju Hashirama's body, and with every strand of energy absorbed, his aura grew more terrifying.
Gradually, a layer of gold-green armor appeared across the surface of Senju Hashirama's body.
Looking closely, this armor was forged from the ultimate essence of Wood Release, and it was inscribed with mysterious runes that shimred with a faint glow.
As the energy continued to pour in, Senju Hashirama's presence grew to an unimaginable magnitude.
The surrounding air seed to be squeezed by an invisible giant hand, producing a deep humming sound.
The rocks on the ground were crushed to powder one after another by this overwhelming presence.
Pirates of the Beasts Pirates, whether they were watching from a distance or still in the middle of fighting, all felt the terrifying pressure bearing down on them.
'This is... a technique that Brother never created while he was alive, and now he actually has the chance to use it?' Senju Tobirama stood to one side and looked at the changes in his older brother, his heart filled with shock.
His older brother had always been devoted to pushing the boundaries of Wood Release, and what stood before him now was clearly the culmination of his brother's years of painstaking effort, finally manifesting in this extraordinary mont.
Senju Hashirama's heart was perfectly composed, for although his body was now only one brought back by the Impure World Resurrection, this body had already undergone a world-shattering transformation after being enhanced by Roy's Remnant Branch of the Divine Tree, taking on a power that was mysterious and unfathomable.
On top of that, he had learned powers from different systems in this world, and who he was now was entirely unlike who he had been before.
"Boom." A deep and muffled crash rang out, like a sigh from between heaven and earth.
The gold-green armor on Senju Hashirama's body blazed with brilliant light.
In that mont, all of heaven and earth seed to be shaken by his presence, and a faint, ethereal chanting drifted in from the distant horizon and echoed across the land.
"This is... what kind of power?" A flash of shock crossed Kaido's dragon eyes.
He had never felt such an overwhelming presence, and not even Whitebeard had ever given him this kind of oppressive sensation.
Senju Hashirama slowly raised his hand and looked at Kaido with a calm gaze.
"Kaido, your power is indeed formidable, but before the power of nature, it still appears small."
A flash of fury crossed Kaido's eyes, and his dragon mouth suddenly opened as he spat out a blazing stream of dragon breath.
"Enough talk! I won't be intimidated by you!"
The dragon breath carried destructive force and bore straight toward Senju Hashirama.
However, Senju Hashirama only gave a light wave of his hand, and a green barrier appeared in front of him.
The dragon breath crashed into the barrier and produced a trendous thunderous boom, yet the barrier did not move even slightly.
"It's useless, Kaido." Senju Hashirama's voice was calm.
"The that exists now has already surpassed all limits."
A flash of unwillingness crossed Kaido's dragon eyes, and his body suddenly shuddered as his dragon form expanded again, with the power of thunder wrapping around him on all sides.
"Boro Breath!"
Kaido let out a low growl, and his kanabō carried the force of thunder as it ca smashing down toward Senju Hashirama.
However, Senju Hashirama only raised his hand lightly, and the runes on the gold-green armor flowed and shifted, as an invisible force directly deflected Kaido's attack.
"Boom!"
Kaido's kanabō was knocked from his grasp, and the force sent his dragon body staggering back again and again.
Senju Hashirama's figure stood firm and immovable like a mountain.
"Kaido, your power cos from destruction, while mine cos from nature." Senju Hashirama said quietly.
"Destruction has its limits, but the power of nature is endless and inexhaustible."
"Stop lecturing ! I am the strongest creature alive!"
Hearing this, overwhelming Sage power radiated from every part of Senju Hashirama's body.
In that mont, he intended to et Kaido in a completely uninhibited clash of pure taijutsu.
Seeing this, Kaido let out a cold snort, the muscles of his thick dragon arms bulging high, and with a surge of raw brute force he launched the first strike.
His figure flashed like a bolt of black lightning and ca smashing toward Senju Hashirama's face.
This blow carried enormous montum and force, and had it landed it would have been enough to reduce a small mountain to rubble.
Senju Hashirama neither dodged nor evaded, and with equal force he swung his right fist up to et Kaido's attack.
The surface of his fist was covered in a faint gold-green radiance.
"Boom!" A trendous crash rang out like two cannonballs colliding in midair, and the massive shockwave caused the surrounding air to instantly explode, forming a visible ring of pressure that expanded outward in all directions.
Kaido felt as though his fist had slamd into an impossibly hard mountain, and his arm trembled faintly.
Senju Hashirama stood steadily in place without budging and said, "Kaido, your taijutsu is nothing more than this."
