"Very hard."
"Is it actually a product created using Armament Haki?"
"It's really scary! I've never heard of this kind of Armament Haki technique in the Grand Line."
Avalo Pizzaro was a little frightened when he saw that his powerful punch infused with Haki failed to destroy Rosen's Susanoo. He quickly twisted his left arm and punched down again.
"But this can't be a reason for you to survive!"
After further realizing how terrifying Rosen was, the murderous intent in his heart increased instead of decreasing.
Bang
The Armament Haki surged out from his left fist like a raging river, turning into an overwhelming shockwave, bombarding Susanoo's ribs.
Snap
The sound of bones breaking rang out again.
All the ribs of Susanoo's first form had been broken.
"Open it for me!"
When Avalo Pizzaro saw this scene, the expression on his face became more ferocious. His fists were like dragons, pressing hard on Susanoo's chest. The Armament Haki in his body surged violently, gathered in his hands, and then exploded.
Boom
Along with a thunderous sound like breaking through the heavens, a powerful shockwave burst out, like a terrifying and Haki dragon, directly tearing the body of Susanoo apart bit by bit.
Not only the chest and ribs, but even the skull and arms could not withstand this force—they broke, shattered, and collapsed.
"Break him!"
Vasco Shot and Catarina Devon couldn't help but roar when they saw this.
They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
They couldn't wait to see Rosen's last line of defense, Susanoo, being blown up—and then the man who had brought countless nightmares to all the prisoners in Infinite Hell, being completely killed.
"It can actually break the first form of Susanoo."
"As expected of the Corrupt King."
"He's not a Devil Fruit user, but a sixth-tier monster who can stand on equal footing with Catarina Devon and Vasco Shot just by his Haki."
Looking at the collapsing Susanoo, there was no fear or worry on Rosen's face. Instead, he praised the strength of Avalo Pizzaro.
His calmness, like an ancient well, made Avalo Pizzaro feel a little creepy.
It was so abnormal.
This wasn't the expression of a man behind bars and at the end of his rope.
"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too arrogant."
"You actually let the three of us join forces."
When Avalo Pizzaro saw that Susanoo was only a hair's breadth away from complete collapse, he forced himself to suppress his inner uneasiness and revealed a sarcastic smile.
"You can actually break the first form of Susanoo. It seems you really didn't understand what I said!"
"Then I'll explain it more clearly."
"Since Susanoo has a first form, do you think there will be a second form?"
Rosen looked at Avalo Pizzaro with interest, watching his expression change because of what he had said:
"The answer is—"
"Yes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Armament Haki in his body erupted like magma, gushing out mightily.
Under Avalo Pizzaro's three consecutive punches, the Susanoo that was about to shatter—from the skull to the neck, to the upper body and arms—all were covered again by Rosen's Armament Haki and recovered in an instant.
That was not all.
As Rosen released a steady stream of Armament Haki outside his body, Susanoo was further strengthened. The Susanoo, which originally consisted of only half a skeleton, quickly grew blood vessels, internal organs, muscles, skin, and even outer clothing.
In the blink of an eye—
The half-skeleton turned into a lifelike, ferocious, majestic and Haki giant.
Although, like the first form, the second form of Susanoo also only had the upper body, with the massive supply of Armament Haki, both its offense and defense were far superior to before.
"This is the second form of Susanoo."
Rosen looked at Avalo Pizzaro with a half-smile.
"No, impossible!"
"An Armament Haki of this scale, and such an incredible technique."
"How could you possibly have it?!"
Avalo Pizzaro looked at the Haki giant in front of him, his face full of shock and disbelief.
He had clearly broken all the bones of Susanoo—
But how could it recover in an instant, and even become more terrifying?
Yes.
Even more terrifying.
Even without using Observation Haki to perceive, just by looking with the naked eye, Avalo Pizzaro was already shocked by the second form of Susanoo in front of him.
Not to mention the technique required to shape the externalized Armament Haki into the second form of Susanoo, just the amount of Armament Haki required to accomplish this feat was immense.
Anyway—he definitely didn't have such a huge volume of Haki.
He felt terrified at the thought that the Susanoo in front of him was actually the product of such terrifying materialization of Armament Haki.
In response to Avalo Pizzaro's questioning—
He answered with a punch from the second form of Susanoo.
This was the product of the massive materialized Armament Haki.
In other words, Rosen's Susanoo—from the inside out—was composed entirely of Armament Haki, without any other substance.
This punch was equivalent to being hit head-on by a massive amount of pure Haki.
And—
Under Rosen's control, every punch and kick of Susanoo could use internal destruction techniques.
After all, Susanoo itself was externalized Armament Haki—it was just massive and materialized.
Since it was Haki, he could naturally use Haki techniques.
"Aghhh—!"
Avalo Pizzaro only saw a black screen before his eyes—
Then a terrifying fist force crushed his body.
He was by no means small—on the contrary, he was extremely burly, standing at five meters tall.
But with such height and body size—he was still nothing in front of Susanoo's second form.
Not even as long as an arm.
Boom—
After being hit head-on, Avalo Pizzaro felt all the bones and blood in his body trembling and wailing, and a suffocating pressure and pain invaded every inch of him.
Then, his body suddenly exploded with a wave of air, flew out like a missile, and smashed into a thick wall of Infinite Hell.
With just a casual punch, like swatting away a bug—
Rosen's eyes swept across Vasco Shot, who had used the Glug-Glug Fruit to create fireballs to blow up Senbonzakura, and Catarina Devon, who was still trying her best to hold on to the Shinsō in his hand.
"Are you so afraid of my fruit ability?"
"Vasco Shot."
"Catarina Devon."
There was a flash of coldness in Rosen's eyes. With a thought, the Shinsō that pierced through Catarina Devon's body and the Senbonzakura that had turned into cherry blossom blades both turned into air and disappeared.
Immediately following—
He controlled Susanoo, swung the arm formed from massive Haki, opened his five fingers, and clenched them toward the air.
Clang—
A Haki longsword that seemed to flow like water and burn like fire appeared out of thin air, and was grasped in Susanoo's hand.
Same as the second form of Susanoo—
This weapon, which looked like a lightsaber, was also created by Rosen using gasification techniques to release Armament Haki.
"It's a shame you guys don't take me seriously enough."
"It's not just the Devil Fruit you should fear—"
"But my Haki as well."
Once the Haki longsword was in his hand, a terrifying aura, as invincible as that of a demon, burst from Susanoo's body like a storm—
And came crashing down on Vasco Shot.
