Chapter 207 Bai Cangshu: I Gradually Understand Everything (3K+)
Enel watched as Bai Cangshu's dark skin rapidly peeled off, revealing his unblemished skin beneath, which even glowed like scales under the crimson flames.
Bai Cangshu straightened his body completely, clutching the twisted golden weapon. He took a step forward, closing the distance to Enel to just a single step.
Zzzzt!
A powerful current, conducted by the gold, instantly burst forth in a flash of blue-white light—the appearance of over sixty million volts of high voltage erupting in an instant. However, all the current rapidly dissipated upon contact with the arm emitting a scarlet glow.
Not only that, Bai Cangshu gripped the golden long blade tightly, and the Haki of the Conqueror instantly spread, causing the blue-white electric light to rapidly retreat. In the clash of the two forces, the Overlord Color Haki almost overwhelmingly forced back the power of lightning.
Enel noticed this, but he also realized something.
"The strength of the Haki of the Conqueror left by that guy in this arm is decreasing. How long can you use this ability?"
Overlord Color Haki possesses a very unique characteristic: it can be stored.
Only extremely powerful Overlord Color Haki users can store Overlord Color Haki within certain objects, allowing others to activate and use it.
Bai Cangshu was now almost certain that this arm was left by the Black King · Luffy, who had just departed for unknown reasons, and it contained an overly powerful Overlord Color Haki.
When he first attached the arm, the power of that Haki of the Conqueror was almost capable of completely suppressing the Killing Intent Ripple and the erosion of God Hand.
But this Overlord Color Haki was like water without a source; its strength decreased and its reserves diminished with continuous use. This was the source of Enel's confidence at the moment.
But Bai Cangshu merely smiled cruelly.
He was currently in an unprecedentedly powerful state, with Jealousy of Solitude maxed out, and his attributes amplified to their limit.
[Culprit Reincarnator · EX051]
[Codename: Tao Bai Bai (Modifiable)]
[Basic Four-Dimensional Attributes]
[Strength: 20+ (Touching extreme value, basic efficacy)]
[Agility: 20+ (Touching extreme value, basic efficacy)]
[Physique: 35 (Jealousy of Solitude, talent manifestation) (First-tier efficacy · 1.8)]
[Mental: 32 (Jealousy of Solitude, talent manifestation) (First-tier efficacy · 1.7)]
Excluding Strength and Agility, which could not gain efficacy enhancement or significant basic attribute boosts because they hadn't broken through their extreme values, Bai Cangshu's actual Physique and Mental stats, under the first-tier efficacy conversion, reached values equivalent to 60+ and 50+ in the first tier, respectively.
The powerful efficacy of breaking through the first tier, combined with Bai Cangshu's body-wide amplification tier characteristic, Jealousy of Solitude, and the peculiar talent manifestation that caused multiple Space anchor abnormalities, made Bai Cangshu at this moment, purely in terms of numerical values, almost twice as strong as his previous self in the last world.
The high Physique and Mental attributes brought about powerful abnormal resistance, making Bai Cangshu's recovery speed several times faster when struck by lightning. Not only that, ordinary attacks could no longer break his defense, and even the surging Killing Intent Ripple had much less impact on Bai Cangshu at this moment.
And this was merely an amplification of basic attributes. Bai Cangshu was currently in a special state called 'talent manifestation,' where he felt his senses were amplified to their limit.
This perception was different from the precognition of Kenbunshoku Haki; it was more like a special state of clarity.
He felt he had an extraordinary ability to receive and understand any information.
It was as if he had only seen Karp use 「Fist Bone Impact」 and Luffy and Karp's Haki of the Conqueror entanglement, and he naturally understood the existence of 「Aura」.
"Enel, unfortunately, the current me… hey, I feel omnipotent."
At this moment, Bai Cangshu's heart rate was no different from an ordinary person, but Enel's pupils widened. The complexity of the sounds and the sheer amount of information he heard from within Bai Cangshu completely exceeded his comprehension.
Unlike the chaos when tens of thousands of yin spirits vied for the Heart Throne before, there was only one voice, one will, within Bai Cangshu at this moment.
But this one voice seemed to be simultaneously thinking and receiving hundreds of pieces of information.
This amount of information already exceeded Enel's judgment capabilities, and for a moment, he was unable to retrieve the opponent's combat intention from these pieces of information.
Zzzzt~
The sound of electricity rang out. In Bai Cangshu's wide-open pupils, the electrified Enel was naturally reflected. He instantly turned to look behind him, and Enel just happened to materialize from behind at that moment.
Enel spread his hands, and facing Bai Cangshu and the entire Space behind him, he said in a low voice,
"Eighty million volts, discharge!"
Zzzzt!
Blue-white lightning suddenly flared, activating countless electric ions that Enel had already released into the air. Powerful currents intertwined like an electric net.
This large-scale indiscriminate attack was to counter Bai Cangshu's left hand, which seemed to be immune to lightning strikes.
Bai Cangshu found that he had actually successfully predicted Enel's movements, and a strong sense of joy arose in his heart.
At this moment, Bai Cangshu felt he could understand Gojo Satoru's uncontrollable arrogance and self-centeredness after the Hidden Inventory arc.
This power, revealed from his very bones and soul, this feeling of gradually understanding everything and mastering everything, indeed gave Bai Cangshu a sense of exhilaration, as if he alone was supreme in heaven and earth.
Facing Enel's attack, Bai Cangshu didn't need to think; the moment his muscles twitched, the breath of thunder also sounded in his nostrils.
The high-tier Kasha, which had not been fully activated before, completely bloomed at this moment.
"Kasha · Fifth Stage~"
Bai Cangshu's tone carried an upward tremor, a manifestation of his extremely heightened emotions at this moment.
He couldn't see it, but his face at this moment, with flying eyebrows and eyes, was emitting a faint spiritual glow.
The pain of muscle tearing could not affect Bai Cangshu at all; his figure vanished in an instant.
Bang bang bang...
A series of sonic booms then exploded. As Enel's lightning just flared from his palms, a powerful impact had already appeared from in front of him.
On that face, stretched to complete blurriness, the pupils still clearly reflected Enel's disbelief.
Boom!
Bai Cangshu's speed was so fast that he hadn't even fully completed his punching motion when a powerful air pressure, fist pressure, and the air mass he collided with, shattered Enel's form with a bang.
Enel's figure reformed not far away, his expression now grave.
He realized something was wrong; this bug before him seemed to have become incredibly powerful, far beyond his imagination, due to a series of coincidences and changes.
Perhaps, he shouldn't have appeared at this time. He could have waited for the opponent to exit this state and revert to that chaotic, power-dominated appearance before showing up again.

However, Enel, who was eroded by the Abyss God, clearly did not know of the existence called causality. He snorted coldly, and his figure already pulled away.
"Did you forget to use Haki? What a pity, there won't be another chance…"
Boom!
No movement could be seen, nor could any effective inner thoughts be read. A powerful impact appeared again.
This time, Bai Cangshu's right hand was joined like a blade, and he thrust it out fiercely.
「Devil Spear」!
Pfft!
Enel's chest actively elementalized and shattered, and the incandescent smoke cloud created by the agitated air, like a long spear, pierced through Enel's body.
Bai Cangshu paused briefly, his figure revealed.
His eyelids were lowered, and large areas of bleeding had already begun to reappear on his body, but Bai Cangshu seemed oblivious, feeling only the intoxicating power of this moment.
Moreover, he wasn't just attacking; he was also gathering all sorts of information. On the warship behind him, several injured Headquarter Vice Admirals were tending to the wounded, and Chaton, at Cindy's request, wanted to land on the island for support.
And further away, Karp's Haki of the Conqueror reappeared.
Time was short, and his body also couldn't sustain a prolonged battle at the Kasha's fifth-tier 32x speed.
More importantly, he discovered a huge flaw that Enel had gained after being eroded.
Bai Cangshu's gaze focused on the four heads representing joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness; these were external objects and very incongruous when Enel elementalized.
Enel's figure completely elementalized. In the next moment, hundreds of electric currents flowed and transmitted through the air. Bai Cangshu understood that the opponent probably wanted to stall for time or even escape.
But at this moment, Bai Cangshu possessed astonishing 「Intuition」, which was different from Kenbunshoku Haki. He didn't understand his current state, but he just had a special intuition; he knew the opponent's thoughts.
He could even predict the opponent's intentions.
The reason why Bai Cangshu had so much Mental information and thought activity in Enel's Mind Net at this time was because Bai Cangshu found that he could now simulate other people's thought patterns and Logic.
Just like imitating the opponent's physical abilities and even Haki, once he 「understood」 the opponent's personality and the essence of their thinking, he could, as if it were only natural, think in the opponent's current thought patterns.
He was simultaneously playing the role of several people thinking, including Enel himself!
Bai Cangshu exhaled a turbid breath. The high-temperature breath quickly liquefied in the air, creating a large amount of white mist. After he finished breathing, a flash of light appeared in his left hand, and the dragon slayer sword reappeared.
Within the extreme speed of the fifth-tier Kasha, Bai Cangshu could not ensure that his attacks flowed perfectly. Even Armament Haki and Killing Intent Ripple sometimes could not be freely transmitted to the point where the attack occurred.
Just like the first attack, Bai Cangshu, moving too fast, had already knocked the opponent flying before he even threw a punch.
At this point, this black-bladed dragon slayer sword had no such concerns.
Bai Cangshu gripped this exaggerated greatsword in his left hand, pointing it distantly into the air.
Enel, who was continuously flowing into the distance, suddenly felt an inexplicable panic in his heart. His Mind Net transmitted immense fear.
Bang bang bang...
Amidst a series of air explosions, a scarlet Haki of the Conqueror suddenly shone in mid-air, erupting indiscriminately.
It was as if a powerful hurricane was sweeping across the sea in the sky.
Overbearing, cruel, resolute—this was a cold and desolate Haki, like the River Styx. In an instant, both Chaton, who was preparing to support, and Onigumo and others could only shield themselves with their hands, allowing the surging Haki of the Conqueror to violently rub against their bodies.
Dozens of nautical miles away in the sky, a figure was pierced by a scarlet lightning bolt, instantly materializing.
Enel's face was pale, and his four heads on his back simultaneously transformed into expressions of fear.
"Bad…"
Pfft!
A straight, pitch-black sword light suddenly flared, as if it were the Spear of Longinus piercing the sky, it penetrated Enel's chest and punctured his four heads.
