Chapter 580: Nighold!
Upon seeing the appearance of the black dragon, the clash between the brothers came to an abrupt halt.
Shanks suddenly unleashed his power and repelled Shamrock!
Then Shanks raised his head. His gaze pierced through the swirling snowflakes and landed squarely on the massive, dark dragon that blotted out the sky.
There is a figure on the dragon's head.
The boy wearing a straw hat is grinning from ear to ear.
Seeing that Luffy was alright.
Shanks relaxed his shoulders.
Then I looked at the giant dragon in the sky!
"Loki, you didn't use your full strength back then."
"If you had used that ability directly back then..."
"How could I and the entire warrior race possibly capture you?"
He chuckled. Something unreadable flickered in his eyes.
Shamlock's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
[Remember the fastest online novel website: 1 ...
The oppressive feeling emanating from that black dragon was overwhelming.
Shamlock turned his head. His gaze passed over the chaotic battlefield and landed on Garin Saint in the distance.
He was waiting for his father's orders.
Garin stood atop the ruins, his hands gripping his longsword. He stared intently at the black dragon in mid-air, his eyes swirling with something unreadable. For several long seconds, he didn't utter a single word.
Green Bull and Chaton approached from both sides.
Green Bull gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice:
"Lord Garin, what exactly is this thing? The intelligence reports didn't mention anything about such a monster in Elbaf!"
Tea Pig gripped his weapon tightly, his gaze fixed on the sky.
Garin gripped his sword with increased force. His knuckles turned white. He coldly uttered a sentence:
"I don't know what this is either."
Green Bull and Chaton's hearts sank simultaneously. A monster that even the Supreme Commander didn't recognize was definitely a huge variable.
Kizaru stood on a broken stone pillar.
His hands were in the pockets of his yellow striped suit. Brown sunglasses covered most of his face.
I wonder what he's thinking!
Kizaru looked up at the purplish-black lightning that kept striking down around the black dragon.
The lightning bolts seemed to have eyes, specifically targeting the nightmare monsters. Each bolt struck, taking one monster with it.
Kizaru pursed his lips and drawled out:
"Oh dear, this is really going to be difficult to handle."
His intuition was screaming alarm bells. This black dragon was even more dangerous than the white-bearded man and Lox opposite him.
Green Bull stood not far away, his eyes filled with malice.
He doesn't believe in superstitions.
He crouched down and slammed his right hand down on the shattered ice. Thick vines burst from the ground, shooting into the air like venomous snakes. Their target was a section of the black dragon's drooping tail.
He wanted to test just how tough this monster really was.
The vines had barely approached within ten meters of the black dragon when a jet-black dragon breath unexpectedly seeped from between its scales. The tips of the vines were instantly ignited. Black flames spread wildly downwards along the vines.
The flames contained an aura of death that could destroy everything.
Green Bull's pupils contracted sharply. With a swift chop to the neck, he severed the power connection without hesitation. The broken vines turned to ash in mid-air.
Green Bull stood up. His face was so black it looked like it could drip water.
He never dared to try again.
Whitebeard stood in the center of the battlefield.
His gaze was fixed on the black dragon that blotted out the sky in mid-air.
The black dragon's size completely covered the sky.
The white-bearded man's Adam's apple bobbed.
He'd seen it all. But this black dragon in the sky still gave him goosebumps.
He turned to look at Lox, who was still laughing maniacally to the side. The white-bearded man frowned and raised his voice:
"Rocks, what exactly is this thing?"
"Is it a Dragon-type Devil Fruit?"
Whitebeard gripped the knife handle tightly.
"It's not like I haven't seen Kaido's Azure Dragon form before."
"But that idiot's size is so different from that monster in the sky!"
Whitebeard was right. Although Kaido's blue dragon form was enormous, compared to this black dragon, it was just a fledgling. Kaido completely lacked the ancient and destructive aura emanating from this black dragon.
Rocks finally stopped laughing.
He turned to face the white-bearded man. He raised his right hand. His thick thumb pointed straight up at the black dragon. His eyes were filled with undisguised fanaticism.
"Kaido?"
Rocks's voice, carrying an air of dominance, resounded throughout the arena.
Compared to this guy above, Kaido is just a slippery eel!
The entire room fell silent.
All eyes were scanning back and forth between Lox and the black dragon.
Lockes continued speaking. Each word struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.
"This is the Dragon Fruit."
"Nighogg form."
"This is a true Devil Fruit, existing only in legends!"
Rocks' voice grew louder and louder, carrying a mad, almost manic energy that seemed to tear everything apart.
As he spoke, he slowly turned his head. His gaze swept across the chaotic battlefield, fixing precisely on Im's Stand. A cruel smirk tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"This fruit represents pure destruction."
Even that high and mighty fellow on the Void Throne.
Even the sight of this power makes one tremble!
Whitebeard heard the words "Empty Throne".
Those sharp eyes narrowed sharply. His right hand, gripping Cong Yunqie, tightened instinctively.
Whitebeard understood perfectly what Rocks meant.
The power that could make any being sitting on the Void Throne tremble is absolutely beyond imagination.
On the high platform.
The white-clad woman doppelganger controlled by Im stood in the snowstorm. Upon hearing Rocks' words, a strange expression appeared on her usually expressionless face.
His facial muscles stiffened for a moment.
The finger that had been raised in preparation to give the command was abruptly frozen in mid-air.
This subtle movement did not escape the eyes of the top experts.
Lox hit the nail on the head. She was indeed afraid of this ancient power. For eight hundred years, the name of this fruit had been a taboo.
Now, the taboo has been completely broken.
midair.
Loki, the black dragon, stretched his massive body within the thick clouds. Suddenly, he raised his enormous head. A roar erupted from the depths of his throat, shattering the sky above.
The sound waves transformed into tangible ripples that spread wildly in all directions.
The purplish-black lightning in the clouds immediately exploded. Hundreds of bolts of lightning tore through the sky, striking precisely at the nightmare monster on the ground.
The black dragon did not stop.
The massive tail, covered in jet-black barbs, suddenly swept out. A sonic boom cloud was flung out. The twelve nightmare monsters on the eastern side of the battlefield had no time to dodge.
The scales covered in Armament Haki collided head-on with it.
The massive body was instantly torn to pieces. Blood and bits of flesh rained down from the sky.
Immediately afterward, the black dragon swooped down from the sky. A massive dragon claw slammed into the ground, precisely pinning down a gigantic, thirty-meter-tall fire-dead skeleton.
The eerie green flames in the skull's eyes flickered violently. Its arms desperately braced against the dragon's claws.
A hint of disdain flashed in the black dragon's eyes.
The dragon's claws suddenly closed together.
The ear-piercing sound of bones shattering echoed across the battlefield. The giant skull was forcibly crushed into fine bone powder. The powder fell in a flurry from the gaps in the dragon's claws.
The black dragon rose again. Its mouth opened wide. A dark red light shone from the depths of its abyss-like throat.
A jet-black dragon breath erupted forth.
The dragon's breath carved a death chasm a hundred meters wide across the battlefield. Wherever it passed, rocks instantly vaporized. The dozen or so nightmare monsters caught in its path didn't even have time to scream before their flesh and bones evaporated in the black flames.
Not even a trace of ashes remained.
The battlefield situation changed completely in an instant.
The giant warriors, who had been suppressed by the Knights of God and the Nightmare Monsters for an unknown period of time, were completely dumbfounded. They watched as the monsters, which they could not kill no matter what they did, vanished in droves under the black dragon's attacks.
The gloom of despair was torn to shreds.
A young giant, covered in blood, crawled out of the ruins. He used a broken flagpole to support his body.
Look up.
The invincible black figure in the sky.
Hot tears mingled with blood streamed down his face. With all his might, he roared out a heart-wrenching scream.
"The God of War of Elbaf has returned!"
That shout was just a spark.
It instantly ignited the entire Elbaf.
The surrounding giant warriors raised their battle axes, spears, and shields once more. They roared along with the young giant. The roars coalesced into a torrent of steel, soaring into the sky.
Morale was pulled back from the brink of collapse.
They were no longer afraid.
On the high platform.
Im's Stand's face was extremely gloomy.
Ordinary nightmare monsters are just cannon fodder in front of Nighold. No matter how many there are, it's useless.
Those empty eyes swept across the battlefield, quickly searching for a new way to break the deadlock.
They quickly pinpointed the edge of the battlefield.
There was a giant army there, escorting a group of terrified, crying giant children to safety.
Im's Stand raised its hand. Its slender fingers pointed in the direction the children had fled. A cold command, transmitted through its ability, was directly injected into Saint Somaz's mind.
Saint Somaz received the order.
He immediately quickened his pace. Dragging thick, thorny vines, he moved like a venomous snake through the burning ruins. He was extremely cunning, deliberately avoiding areas covered by Loki's dragon breath. He moved with incredible speed, chasing after the giants responsible for moving the children.
A cruel light gleamed in his eyes.
By capturing these children, the giants' weakness will be exploited once again.
The end of the retreat route.
A massive, collapsed stone pillar lay across the middle of the street. The last row of giant children was completely blocked. The children huddled together, their cries echoing.
Only two giant warriors remained to escort them.
The two men were covered in blood, panting heavily. They gripped their weapons tightly and looked back in despair.
The figure of Somaz Saint emerged from the shadows.
His right arm had completely transformed into a thick, thorny vine. The vine stretched across the dilapidated rooftop. The sharp thorns gleamed with a deadly cold light.
The target was a little girl at the end of the line.
The little girl clutched a tattered rag doll tightly in both hands. She turned around in horror, staring at the ever-growing thorns and spikes.
She even forgot to cry.
A hair's breadth away.
A sound pierced through the wind, snow, and thunder.
"Zoro!"
"Sanji!"
"You're in charge of dealing with that guy who was hiding in the back and launching a sneak attack!"
