Chapter 358 - [358] Gran Rey Cero! Severing Bolo Breath, Cutting Tornado, Repelling Ice and Snow

"What a violent power."

As Rosen watched the swarm of lightning plasma bursting forth like a chaotic dance of demons, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This power already surpasses the total fighting strength of the Ochoku Pirates.

While he might not be able to defeat the Ochoku Pirates without taking any damage like he did, if Kaido were to successfully awaken his powers and no longer have his body controlled by the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon's will, he would certainly be able to take on the Ochoku Pirates single-handedly.

As for injuries, as long as they are not fatal, the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon's vitality and recovery ability after awakening are equivalent to not being injured.

This is the awakening of a top-tier mythical beast.

Although awakening is extremely difficult, once it is successful, one will immediately rise to the top.

Luffy is the best example.

Before Nika Form awakened, he was smashed to pieces by Kaido.

After Nika Form awakened, he crushed Kaido.

If Luffy is like this, let alone Kaido.

Before its Devil Fruit awakened, it was already the strongest creature on land, sea, and air. After its awakening, its combat power naturally surpasses that of Luffy's Nika Form.

"Ittōten Senka".

Although Rosen was somewhat surprised by Kaido's power, neither his eyes nor his face showed the slightest panic.

Facing the oncoming swarm of thunder and lightning, he raised the Tensa Zangetsu and unleashed a single sword strike. As if the sword had multiplied into countless blades, it transformed into a sky full of sword shadows, covering all directions and severing the incoming thunder and lightning one by one.

Even the slightest arc of electricity couldn't cross the net of blades formed by Tensa Zangetsu.

Roaring Plasma.

It was cut off.

call out

Seeing the thunder and lightning descend from the sky, which Rosen swung his sword and cut through one by one, Kaido, who was originally rushing towards Rosen, suddenly stopped in his tracks, then soared into the sky and transformed.

hold head high

With a deafening roar, the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon, originally entwined with cyan flames, instantly transformed into a hundred-foot-long Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon.

It is still in the form of a Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon, but compared to before the fruit awakened, apart from the azure flame clouds swirling around its dragon body, its size has undoubtedly become much larger.

After transforming into his Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon form, Kaido's power became even more terrifying.

Not only physical strength, but also the power of nature has become stronger.

"roar!"

Kaido swung his dragon head and opened his mouth, unleashing a barrage of azure wind blades that sliced ​​through the atmosphere like a sudden storm, their sharpness capable of cleaving mountains and splitting seas, enveloping Rosen.

Clang clang clang

Seeing this, Rosen remained standing in place, continuing to calmly swing his sword, but the speed of his Tensa Zangetsu was now much faster and more ferocious than before.

Even the dense, rain-like wind blades, moving faster than lightning, could not break through the Tensa Zangetsu Blade Dance. They were all rejected by the sword, just like the thunderous descent from the sky earlier, and were completely severed.

Wind Blade.

It was cut off.

See here.

Kaido's murderous intent grew stronger, and his temper became increasingly volatile.

He dragged the enormous dragon body that was coiled in the sea of ​​clouds. Just by meandering and circling in mid-air, his casual movements stirred up the celestial phenomena, triggering dozens of giant tornadoes connecting the sky and the sea, as well as violent hurricanes that blotted out the sun.

Affected by the tornado, Rosen, who was standing in mid-air, kept losing his footing, and even the speed of his sword dance slowed down, no longer as impenetrable as before.

Seeing this scene.

"Ooh o ...

A thunderous laugh echoed through the sky as Kaido opened his mouth and spat out a sound.

Bang

A blazing heat, like a celestial river pouring down, carrying terrifying energy capable of scorching mountains and boiling seas, descended from the sky.

Before the heat arrived, terrifying heat descended upon the sea, scorching the surface and causing large amounts of white mist to rise.

"Hehehe."

As the heat blasted through the air, Rosen's lips curled up slightly. He no longer steadied his body, letting the tornado sweeping across the sky and sea pull him along, but he clenched the Tensa Zangetsu in his right hand.

hiss

The Conqueror's Haki transformed into ferocious black lightning, coiling around the blade before being unleashed in a single strike.

The sword points to the sky.

"Gran Rey Cero!"

The rolling sword pressure, like a sea of ​​clouds stretching across the sky, like a surging celestial river, instantly sliced ​​the oncoming pillar of heat and fire in two, while also cutting off dozens of tornadoes that covered the sea in half, and in the process, dispelling the all-encompassing storm.

Cut off the heat.

Broken tornado.

The hurricane receded.

After Kaido awakened his Devil Fruit powers, he devoted himself to manipulating nature, causing natural disasters, all of which were reduced to nothing by Rosen's single slash.

Even the boundless sea of ​​clouds that hovered above the dome could not withstand the sharpness and pressure of this sword, splitting the sea into a chasm several kilometers long.

The dark sea also became much clearer.

Not only that.

Pfft

A tearing sound rang out as Kaido's dragon mouth and face were slashed to a bloody pulp, revealing a cut that exposed the dragon bone.

"ah!"

Kaido's body is controlled by the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon's Will of the Devil Fruit, but that doesn't mean he doesn't feel pain.

mouth.

Face.

Such a sensitive area, when cut so deeply that the bone is visible, will naturally be in excruciating pain and cause immense rage.

This anger.

The sky, which had just been cleared by Rosen's single strike and was now much clearer, was immediately enraged by Kaido, which stirred up a blizzard on the coastal sea.

Terrifyingly low temperatures.

The endless expanse of ice and snow.

Like the sky pressing down on the earth, covering and obscuring the great sea route.

"It seems so."

"You've really run out of ideas."

"Kaido."

Looking at the blizzard that swept across the sky and sea, Rosen, clad in his Hierro, felt no chill whatsoever.

He swung his sword backhand, still wielding the Gran Rey Cero imbued with Conqueror's Haki.

Boom

Centered on the Tensa Zangetsu, a vast net woven from Conqueror's Haki black lightning instantly unfolded, accompanied by overwhelming sword pressure, covering the endless sea and expanding the vast sky.

As the Black Lightning Sword spread out, the boundless blizzard that Kaido had just unleashed seemed to be rewinding a movie scene, with the entire sky and snow visibly receding.

In an instant, the blizzard that had been pressing down from the sky completely subsided.

Not even a single snowflake remained.

That's it.

Tensa Zangetsu.

This direct-attack type Zanpakutō has an outrageously simple ability, even simpler than elemental Zanpakutō like Ryūjin Jakka and Hyōrinmaru.

ability.

Just one move.

Getsuga Tenshō

All other moves are based on Getsuga Tenshō, and can be considered variations of Getsuga Tenshō.

Secondly.

It's incredibly fast.

Movement speed is fast enough to chase stars and the moon.

Its swinging speed is enough to cut through lightning and wind.

However, simplicity does not equate to weakness.

on the contrary.

Tensa Zangetsu is a numerical monster among Zanpakutō.

Even without using Getsuga Tenshō, Rosen could easily cleave mountains and split oceans with a single slash.

It far surpasses the sharpness of the world's strongest swordsman.

After being imbued with Conqueror's Haki, it can even make a catastrophic hurricane or a blizzard that presses down from the sky retreat with a single sword strike.

"Can one sword clear away the blizzard?"

"This kind of thing."

"He can do that with just a swing of Tensa Zangetsu!"

In the inner bay.

Seeing that Kaido used all sorts of natural forces after his Devil Fruit awakened, but all of them were cut down by Rosen's sword, Sakazuki's usually expressionless face was now filled with emotion.

"Ah la la la la la!"

"This kind of natural disaster-like snowstorm is no joke!"

"Even the world's strongest swordsman could not do such a thing with his strongest strike."

Kuzan looked around but couldn't find a single speck of ice or snow in his sight.

Obviously.

Rosen's strike just now truly cleared away the blizzard completely.

"I knew it."

"What I just said, that they were getting serious, was just playing with Kaido!"

"Junior, you're really scary!"

Borsalino looked at Rosen, who was wearing a black and white Shinigami uniform and holding Tensa Zangetsu, standing between the sky and the sea, and his face showed a look of amazement.

As for Kaido...

After witnessing the blizzard he had unleashed last only a few seconds before being cleared away by Rosen's sword, he seemed stunned.

It's unclear whether it was the will residing within the Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Model: Azure Dragon form, which itself lacked much rationality, or whether it was Rosen's power that subdued the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon's will.

Faced with a sword strike that could repel the wind and snow, Kaido, whose mind and body were filled with killing intent, stood frozen in mid-air, not continuing his storm of attacks on Rosen.
