Chapter 392: One Punch to Down the King of the Beasts!
Wano Country · Above the Thunderclouds
Thunderclouds churned, the roar of thunder and the cry of dragons intertwining.
Just as the war at Marineford erupted, Roy had already arrived on the Wano Country battlefield. He hovered above the thunderclouds, looking down at the purgatory-like warzone below—
Enel, in his Thunder God form, roared as tens of millions of volts of lightning transformed into a thunder dragon, biting wildly at Kaido's Azure Dragon Flame Clouds in the firmament!
Issho's hair and beard whipped in the wind. With a lift of his cane sword, gravity as vast as the sea forced a continuous shower of meteors to crash down, forcibly suppressing Kaido's Flame Clouds!
Zoro gripped Enma tight. His black-red Haki cleaved through King's black wings as the demon blade let out a bloodthirsty hum!
Kuina's sword shadow flashed like blood-red lightning, precisely slicing apart Queen's mechanical arm and scattering the steel wreckage!
Ace's flames surged. Fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with Drake's dragon claws, they led the Marine elites to hold back the tidal wave of the Beast Pirates while desperately protecting the last lifeline of the civilians!
This battlefield had long since turned into hell!
Roy lowered his head, his gaze sweeping over the Visual Den Den Mushi screen in his hand—on the other end, the footage of Marineford was filled with the same absolute slaughter!
When he saw Buggy clashing head-on with Luffy's Mythical Zoan form using the Chop-Chop Fruit, he raised an eyebrow.
"Conqueror's Luck? Heh, so you've been hiding it this deeply all along."
His line of sight shifted to Kizaru and Redfield's high-altitude dogfight. He gave a light chuckle. "Uncle Kizaru is still slacking off even in a scene like this... Forget it, I'll treat him as a reserve force."
When he saw Shanks locked in a life-or-death deathmatch with Sakazuki, his eyes turned freezing cold.
"Shanks... Is Roger's will truly worth betting everything you have?"
"Since you dared to come again, don't even think about going back."
Roy slowly raised his right hand, and the Deadly Omen Star materialized in his palm.
The pitch-black barrel looked like an abyss that swallowed all light. The cold muzzle pointed toward Marineford, ten thousand miles away.
"The Mark-Mark Fruit's target lock... I haven't released it yet."
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG—!!!
A rapid succession of twenty gunshots tore through the firmament! The Deadly Omen Star emptied its magazine in an instant, shattering the thunderclouds with the concussive force!
Twenty bullets, wrapped in black-red Conqueror's Haki, blasted out of the chamber, their trajectories carving through the void!
However, the moment they flew out, the bullets suddenly vanished, swallowed by spatial ripples as if evaporating into thin air!
"This trans-oceanic gift... I hope you'll like it."
The gunshots from the Deadly Omen Star fractured the sky, drowning out even the roaring thunder!
The rhythm of Enel and Issho's battle against Kaido instantly solidified. The sky full of lightning and meteors seemed to freeze and flicker in place.
In the next heartbeat—
A roar shattered the firmament!
Kaido's eyes bulged with rage. His massive Azure Dragon form suddenly retracted, shifting into his Man-Beast Hybrid form!
Azure dragon scales covered his entire body as his muscles and bones cracked like firecrackers. His kanabo, the Hassaikai, sparked with black-red lightning, carrying world-shattering momentum as he lunged straight at Roy!
"ROY!!!"
"RAIMEI HAKKE (THUNDER BAGUA)!!!"
The spiked club tore through the cloud layer, striking like a falling meteor as the very air wailed in agony!
Roy's gaze was ice-cold, yet a faint smirk touched the corner of his lips.
The Deadly Omen Star faded into a spatial ripple, quietly disappearing.
He slowly pulled his right arm back. His Haki compressed manically. Black-red electrical arcs and the devouring vortex of the Yami Yami no Mi converged around his fist, forming a dazzling cross-shaped starlight!
Space violently distorted, as if even the sky would be torn asunder by this punch!
"Kaido... don't be so impatient."
"Dark Star: Universal Impact!!!"
"KABOOM—!!!"
The moment the fist and the kanabo collided, the sky completely detonated!
Black-red Conqueror's Haki spread out like a massive spider web. Lightning and shockwaves swept across heaven and earth!
A ring-shaped shockwave blasted outward from the high altitude, instantly clearing the entire cloud layer over Wano Country and allowing the blazing sun to shine directly onto the battlefield!
"VROOM—!!!"
The terrifying pressure of Haki crushed down like a mountain!
On the battlefield below, tens of thousands of Beast Pirate members rolled their eyes back, foaming at the mouth as they collapsed in droves!
Even the Marine elites began to fall one after another. Only a few managed to drop to one knee, cold sweat beading on their foreheads as they gritted their teeth and held on!
Flames burned fiercely on Ace's back as he desperately shielded Otama beside him.
The little girl trembled and peeked out, looking up at the sky through the gaps in the fire—
She saw Roy's iron fist shatter Kaido's Thunder Bagua with absolute, overwhelming force, slamming viciously into the Emperor's chest!
CRACK—!!!
The sound of shattering ribs was deafening!
Before Kaido's roar could even leave his throat, he spat out a massive mist of blood and plummeted down toward Onigashima like a falling star!
"BOOM—!!!"
In the distance, the main peak of Onigashima was instantly pierced through. Mountains crumbled, and dust and smoke shot into the sky!
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
Otama's eyes went wide. Her small hands tightly gripped the hem of Ace's jacket as she muttered with a trembling voice, "That man... sent Lord Kaido flying with one punch?!!"
Ace stared at the sky, flames churning deep within his pupils. A hearty, unrestrained smile stretched across his face. "Yeah... That's our Big Brother Roy."
"The strongest monster in the Marines!!!"
The firmament was deadly still. Even the thunder seemed to have been pulverized.
King, with one wing severed by Zoro, and Queen, his mechanical arm destroyed by Kuina—the two Lead Performers of the Beast Pirates stood dumbstruck, their pupils shrinking to the size of pinpricks.
They simply couldn't believe it. Lord Kaido, that invincible monster, had actually been punched straight through Onigashima by Roy!
"This... this is impossible..." Queen's Adam's apple bobbed. Cold sweat slid down his pale cheeks.
King ground his teeth, his ruined black wing trembling as terror rippled through his heart. "Is this... Roy's true power?"
Just at this moment—
CRACK!!!
A blinding flash of lightning exploded from the distant horizon!
Immediately following it, a roar rolled in like a tsunami: "FULGORA!!!"
Pitch-black lightning condensed into a divine whip, striking across the firmament straight at Roy!
Roy's expression didn't change. He merely glanced back and swatted his hand outward.
SMACK—!!!
The lightning was forcibly shattered like fragile glass, turning into countless specks of light that scattered into the void.
He turned his head indifferently, gazing into the distance where water vapor boiled off the sea's surface—
Dozens of massive pirate ships were breaking the waves, black flags snapping in the wind. Thunder and hellfire intertwined among the fleet!
Roy's eyes gleamed sharply, a cold smile curling on his lips. "You all came... saves me the trouble of hunting you down one by one..."
At the bow of the flagship, Charlotte Linlin stood atop Zeus. Her long hair whipped wildly as her laughter boomed like thunder. "KAIDO!!! Are you really going to let yourself be defeated just like that?!!"
As her words fell—
"BOOM—!!!"
The ruins of Onigashima exploded violently, a mushroom cloud of dust and smoke shooting into the sky!
A gargantuan figure stumbled out. Deep fist marks remained on his chest, the blood still wet!
Kaido roared at the heavens. He held a massive jug of alcohol, gulping it down heavily. The liquor spilled over his tusks and beard, splashing onto the earth!
"You damn old hag... stop your screaming—!!!"
GULP—BURP!!!
The jug smashed onto the ground, strong liquor splattering everywhere!
Kaido's chest heaved violently, his Azure Dragon scales radiating a dark red glow! The eyes of his Man-Beast form were as red as blood. Drunkenness and Conqueror's Haki intertwined, transforming him into a walking natural disaster!
"SHURON HAKKE (DRUNKEN DRAGON BAGUA): BERSERK PHASE!!!"
Kaido roared, the shockwave flipping ruins away like a hurricane!
Seeing this, Linlin threw her head back and laughed maniacally. Zeus transformed into a thundercloud, carrying her straight up into the sky. "MAMAMAMAMA—!!!"
"Kaido! Let's kill Roy together! This world will be ours!!!"
Kaido roared, swinging his kanabo as his bloodshot eyes locked dead onto Roy: "ROY—!!!"
In the next heartbeat, the auras of the two Yonko violently intertwined. Black lightning and crimson flames merged into a devastating tornado, lunging straight into the heavens!
Deep within the ruins, Yamato, covered in dust, struggled to climb out from the rubble.
She looked up at the sky, only to see the combined assault of her father and Linlin—a strike powerful enough to make an army of thousands despair—tearing through the firmament!
Yet, that man—
He remained standing entirely alone amidst the thunderclouds, his back as cold and immovable as a mountain.
Yamato's breathing quickened, her eyes trembling as she murmured softly:
"Is this... Roy?!"
