A purple-black aura coiled around the kraken's sword.
"Kraken's Wild Blade!"
His twelve tentacles, each wielding a sword, beca a whirlwind of blades.
A wave of sword slashes, glowing with a blood-red light, like the sun, engulfed Chinjao.
"Eight-Impact Punch Secret Technique! Drill Dragon, Drill Nail!"
A sound like thunder rolled across the sea.
The two attacks collided. The light from the explosion was so bright that it eclipsed the morning sun.
A massive wave, with the point of impact as its center, surged out in all directions.
"A Devil Fruit!"
Jin's Observation Haki was constantly feeding him images of the battle. A glint of light flashed in his eyes.
The power of the two attacks was imnse. They clashed, and the force of the explosion spread out, pressing down on the warships. The sea was pushed away, as if a massive crater had appeared in the ocean. The wind howled. A few seconds later, the water rushed back in, crashing and churning.
The naval battle raged for three hours.
Although the Kraken's Tongue had more ships and more n, their coordination was no match for the Happo Navy.
At first, Madison, in his kraken form and using Armant Haki, had been able to hold his own against Chinjao. But when Chinjao had unleashed his Conqueror's Haki, he had been seriously wounded, and a large number of his crew had been knocked unconscious.
An hour later, Governor Madison and his n were in full retreat.
He had managed to escape on one of his ships.
Jin saw him and gave chase. The carrier's incredible speed allowed him to catch up to Madison twenty nautical miles out.
"Who are you?? Get out of my way!" the blood-streaked Madison roared.
"I'm here to collect you!"
Jin leaped into the air, and with a single, descending palm strike, he shattered half of the seriously wounded governor's body.
"You bastard! You stole my prey!"
Chinjao, who had been in hot pursuit, saw Madison's death and let out a roar of fury. He leaped into the air. "Drill Dragon, Drill Nail!"
He channeled all his strength and weight into a high-speed ascent, then plumted down.
His blackened head, a powerful shockwave contained within.
—————————
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Chinjao's colossal form plumted from the sky.
A visible shockwave pulsed from his blackened skull, rippling outwards in concentric rings.
Even from a hundred ters away, the sheer force of his presence pressed down on the ocean, forcing the water away in a massive circle.
He was every bit the 500 million Berri legend—a terrifying force of nature.
Jin looked up, the wind whipping violently against him. He sank into a low crouch, one hand aid at Chinjao, the other cocked back into a fist.
His legs coiled, compressing like springs—tighter and tighter, the imnse power within them glowing a nacing black and red.
The Paracia Spring-Spring Fruit.
It was a Devil Fruit of pure, explosive power.
But Jin's springs were different from Bellamy's. They were finer, more nurous, and on an entirely different level of strength. With his vastly superior base stats, the amplification from the fruit was in another league entirely.
A white vapor hissed from his compressed legs, the sheer energy scorching the air around him.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Jin launched himself from the deck. The reinforced steel buckled and shattered, shrapnel exploding outwards.
He vanished.
No—not vanished.
His speed had shattered the sound barrier twice over, faster than a bullet. He was a streak of light closing the distance, the air between him and Chinjao igniting into a shimring haze.
"Grandfather!"
Sai and Boo, still a nautical mile away, saw it all. Countless tendrils of black lightning erupted between the two combatants.
"It's a clash of Conquerors!"
"Incredible!"
On the carrier, Law, Robin, and Reiju watched, their faces etched with shock.
anwhile, Ai had already maneuvered the ship closer, releasing a wave of sticky candy that slapped onto the water and snatched Governor Madison's corpse.
Still fresh.
Usable.
The transfer of a Devil Fruit isn't instantaneous. Even after the host dies, there's a small window of ti. Blackbeard had done the sa, extracting the Tremor-Tremor Fruit only after Whitebeard had already fallen.
—————————
High above, Jin t the blow.
His aura exploded outwards with his Haki, dark-red strears of light dancing behind him.
He was unleashing everything.
The ambition deep in his soul, the raw thrill of battle—it was all ignited.
Limitless power erupted from every cell in his body.
His spirit, forged by an unshakeable will, had beco a tangible force—a swirling vortex of black and red energy.
He was strong.
Chinjao's eyes burned with fighting spirit, his long whiskers whipping in the wind. Haki flared around him, and his own battle spirit seed to set it ablaze, turning it into a dark-red inferno.
Before their fist and head could even connect, their Conqueror's Haki slamd into each other. A storm of black lightning erupted, unleashing one violent gust of wind after another.
The clouds were torn asunder.
The sea was thrown into a chaotic frenzy.
It was as if the world itself was being torn apart.
The approaching Happo Navy warships were thrown back by the force, their crews clinging desperately to the masts. The wind was too strong.
—————————
The standoff lasted only a mont.
"Serious Punch!" Jin roared.
Power surged through him in an endless tide—his potential was a bottomless well. He poured his entire will, his entire spirit, into his right fist. The dark-red Haki around it coalesced into a spear of pure energy, a single point of light that outshone the stars, its power absolute.
It was a nail.
And it pierced straight through Chinjao's Haki "Armor."
DOOOOOOM!
Jin's fist connected with Chinjao's forehead.
A cataclysmic force exploded outwards.
The shockwave covered a ten-nautical-mile radius. The sky was split in two, the light of the moon blotted out.
Darkness fell.
The force of the impact washed over the ships below.
Sai and Boo clung to the rigging, their faces pale, as the pressure slamd into them. Most of the Happo Navy fainted, saved from the full force only by their distance.
On the carrier, a shield of green fla had materialized in front of Law and the others, protecting them from the worst of it.
