----------
Never-ending, ever-multiplying Conqueror's Haki soared into the sky.
The sky above the Red Line was covered with a red aura.
As the center of the world, after Alex released his Haki without any restraint, the whole world changed drastically.
Hurricanes, thunderstorms, volcanoes, earthquakes, and countless violent elements occurred in every corner within hundreds of miles of the Red Line!
And in Mariejois, the holy place at the center of the disaster, the space here is like shattered glass, with pieces breaking apart.
Imu, who was bathed under Alex's Conqueror's Haki, showed a look of panic for the second time, but this look was only fleeting and soon transformed into absolute ruthlessness.
"Do you realize now? The gap between me and you."
Staring at Imu's resentful eyes, Alex said lightly.
There was no reply, and Imu no longer had the calmness it had at the beginning. With Alex's aura unfolding at this moment, it only felt that the omen of death became more and more obvious.
Thinking of this, a flash of determination flickered in Imu's eyes. Terrifying Conqueror's Haki burst out from its damaged body, and the accumulation of power sources buried for hundreds of years exploded within it one by one, turning into more uncontrollable energy that constantly filled Imu's body.
Whether it's Haki or skills, it doesn't matter anymore.
It's just the accumulation of hundreds of years of planning.
As long as the immediate threat is removed, everything can start all over again!
ROAR!
Imu, as if possessed by a demon, suddenly turned to the sky and roared, and at the same time its body began to swell.
"Alex!"
Relying on the state at this moment, its figure instantly swelled several times. Its right hand flickered, exuding bright energy particles, blasting toward Alex with all its strength.
The particles formed by Imu's collection of an unknown amount of energy condensed into a huge light sphere with a diameter of tens of thousands of meters in an instant, capable of turning everything it touched into nothingness.
"It's really crazy - detonating those energy sources at this time to get so-called explosive growth."
Alex looked at Imu and said, "It's just a pity. Compared to your growth that damages yourself while gaining power, mine is the most direct multiplication."
Holding Akazakura, he slashed directly.
The energy particles that were cut into two halves immediately exploded behind Alex, setting off an overwhelming gust of wind.
"Die!"
Imu roared, blasting toward Alex in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, Imu's eyes had been shrouded in blood, and its only goal at this moment was to kill Alex in front of it.
BOOM!
The attacks of the two collided again, and their figures were constantly entangled in the air, which was countless times more intense than the previous duel, but the situation was not as evenly matched as before.
"Although your energy has indeed increased far beyond the previous surge, this crazy fighting method is several times less threatening than your initial approach."
Effortlessly dodging Imu's Finger Pistol full of murderous intent, ignoring the 10,000-meter deep pit that was blown out of the Red Line behind him, Alex's blade cut out so fast that the phantom-like sharp edge pierced Imu's heart, and then with a sudden vent of energy, Imu in front of him exploded into a pile of flesh and blood in an instant.
Whoosh!
Immediately after, Imu, who had already been scattered into minced meat, recovered as before.
At this moment, on Imu's body, the originally gorgeous armor and robes had already been shattered in the battle, and even a large piece of snow-white skin was directly exposed to the air.
But at this moment, the terrifying aura constantly raging just like Alex's, and the increasingly intense tyrannical presence, wouldn't make people fascinated by its appearance but would cause palpitations from its image like a beast in human skin.
"Alex!"
Accompanied by the roar, Imu's body turned into an afterimage, and under the heavy bombardment, the ground where Alex had dodged was blasted into a sky full of gravel by waves of energy.
A whistling storm came, and Alex swung his fist, like the power of a meteorite falling from the sky, directly making the surrounding space shake and tremble.
Gritting its teeth, Imu didn't dodge at all, only recklessly fighting back.
The same punch was powerful enough to shake mountains and rivers.
BOOM!
Thunder rang out, and even the entire Red Line stretching millions of miles trembled.
CRACK!
Imu's fist shattered directly, and then Alex's body was covered in power as he punched Imu's abdominal cavity with speed and force beyond its predictive ability.
Flesh and blood exploded, and Imu, visibly to the naked eye, recovered as before.
But before Imu could fight back, Alex had already grabbed its arm, pulled it back with inertia, leaned forward against the unstoppable force, and bumped against Imu with a knee without hesitation, blasting it away.
Countless times it had recovered to its original state, and countless times it had been easily blown away.
Obviously the energy in its body was still growing, but why couldn't it still compete with Alex?
Whether it's speed, power, strength - everything, it's as if there's a gap between heaven and earth!
"Why!"
Imu murmured, then yelled at Alex: "Why?!"
Knowing the other party's inner voice at the moment, Alex said lightly, "Because there's the biggest difference between you and me, not to mention that you've given up your greatest advantage."
"If there's no mistake, your ability must be absorption."
"You can absorb the power of foreign objects and turn it into your own, and you can also turn your own energy into scattered sources and give it to outsiders."
"Subsequent recovery of those power sources allows you to achieve annexation of developed abilities, skills, and all elements."
"I have to say that you, who have infinite vitality, can indeed use this ability to its limit."
Imu didn't make a sound but answered in a silent manner.
"It's just a pity that the source of your scattered abilities, even after hundreds of years of planning and development, can't surpass me."
Alex looked at Imu, and his energy unexpectedly rose again. "And I am a More-More Fruit ability user, and the scope of my awakening is not just as simple as what I can touch."
