As he spoke, Izo's lips curled slightly upward, his eyes revealing a hint of amusement.
Big Mom snorted coldly, the sound seeming to squeeze out from her nostrils, full of dissatisfaction and anger.
Clearly, She was displeased with their words, but she didn't say much, instead directly grabbing a third Devil Fruit and swallowing it without hesitation.
This time, Her originally seemingly calm body suddenly trembled violently, as if struck by a heavy blow.
This tremor was like a muffled thunder from deep within the earth, causing the surrounding air to quiver slightly.
Immediately after, Before anyone could recover from this sudden turn of events,
A terrifying energy, like primordial power imprisoned for millions of years suddenly released, erupted from her body without warning!
That energy surged like a raging black tide, spreading outward with an unstoppable momentum.
The space around her seemed to distort under the immense power, faintly rippling with strange undulations.
Her body, under the impact of this energy, began to undergo astonishing transformations at a rapid pace.
First, a faint, eerie black glow shimmered across her skin, followed by the gradual emergence of black scales, one after another.
Each scale gleamed with a metallic luster, tightly interlocking like an impenetrable suit of black armor enveloping her form.
As the transformation intensified, Big Mom's physique continued to swell.
Her original figure grew increasingly tall and imposing, as if she had instantly transcended the boundaries of species, undergoing a violent growth spurt!
Her limbs twisted and contorted, eventually morphing into razor-sharp dragon claws.
The claws were thick and powerful, each talon forged like steel, gleaming with a chilling cold light. A mere swipe seemed capable of tearing apart an entire mountain!
Simultaneously, changes began on Big Mom's head as a pair of menacing dragon horns slowly sprouted.
These horns resembled two sharp longswords, pointing straight toward the heavens.
The surface of the horns was also covered in black scales, exuding an aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
At her feet, an even more startling transformation occurred.
Her original feet vanished, replaced by two massive dragon claws.
With a low, rumbling roar, black flame clouds, like dark storm clouds descending, billowed up around her body.
Propelled by her dragon claws, she soared into the sky!
The flame clouds churned and surged, resembling a dark ocean that enveloped her entire form.
As the flames burned, they continuously released powerful energy waves, causing the surrounding air temperature to skyrocket, as if plunging the area into a hellish inferno.
"ROAR!!!"
A deafening dragon's roar erupted echoing throughout the skies.
The shockwaves reverberated, painfully vibrating eardrums...
In the wake of this dragon's roar, Big Mom's body had completely transformed into a colossal black Dragon!
Her body stretched nearly a hundred meters in length, a massive form spanning the sky like a black mountain range.
The black scales glinted with a cold, icy sheen under the sunlight, each scale resembling a mysterious symbol.
Her dragon horns, like two sharp swords, pointed toward the sky as if ready to pierce through the skies.
Her dragon eyes blazed with bloodthirsty ferocity, the red glow within them burning like flames, making it impossible to meet her gaze.
"A black dragon???"
Ron watched the successfully enchanted Big Mom with surprise, never expecting her transformed state to be black—how intriguing...
"This... this is the.....!" Perospero's voice trembled with barely concealed awe.
His legs weakened slightly, nearly buckling beneath him.
His wide eyes were fixed unwaveringly on the enormous black Dragon before him with a mix of indescribable fear and reverence surging in his heart.
In his understanding, such power seemed to transcend the limits of imagination, making him acutely aware of his own insignificance and helplessness.
Though Katakuri remained outwardly composed, his eyes were equally filled with shock.
Slightly raising his head to gaze up at the massive dragon, he thought to himself.
"Mama's power has reached an entirely new level..."
With Big Mom successfully become a three devil fruit users, it would surely bring about tremendous changes!
The overwhelming, suffocating force made her realize that the future situation would become even more complex and unpredictable.
Enel and Izo stood quietly to the side, maintaining their usual calm demeanor on the surface, as if nothing happening around them could stir a ripple in their hearts.
Yet, a faint, barely concealable flicker of surprise flashed in their eyes.
They knew that Big Mom's Azure Dragon Form not only signified a boost in power but also meant Ron's plan was steadily progressing.
At that moment, Big Mom's colossal body slowly circled once in the air.
Her mountainous Dragon form, illuminated by the sunlight, trembled slightly with every movement, each scale shimmering.
Then, she gradually descended to the ground, and the moment her heavy body landed, it felt as though the entire earth shuddered in response.
Her dragon eyes gleamed with excitement, like blazing flames—intense and wild.
Her voice thundered across the open space, each syllable carrying a powerful impact.
"MAMAMAMA! Is this the power of the Azure Dragon? Truly formidable!"
"That brat Kaido was talking pure nonsense!" Big Mom continued to roar, her voice seeming to tear through the clouds.
Ron stood nearby, quietly observing the scene as if he had already foreseen everything.
In his eyes, there was no panic, no fear—only a faint trace of satisfaction flickered briefly.
"Congratulations, Big Mom."
"MAMAMAMAMA, I'm growing fonder of you by the day."
Big Mom circled once more in the air, her dragon eyes sparkling with exhilaration as if admiring her own masterpiece.
She slowly lowered her head, gazing toward the distant, undulating mountain range.
The mountains appeared majestic and grand under the sunlight, but in Big Mom's eyes, they seemed like nothing more than a stage to showcase her power.
A sinister grin curled at the corners of her mouth, and then she abruptly opened her massive maw!
Her mouth gaped like an endless abyss, and a black, scorching heat pillar erupted from within, roaring like a ferocious beast as it hurtled toward the mountains.
"Boro Breath!"
