Being glared at by two top powerhouses simultaneously, Reino, in the air, grinned pleasantly: "Kizaru, Garp, let me show you something interesting."
With that, Reino held the magic blade thousand blades horizontally in his hand!
On the blade, the crisscrossing cracks glowed blue!
Accompanied by a crisp sound, the magic blade thousand blades shattered into countless fragments, suspended in the air.
At the same time, Reino's body glowed with silver light, and silver electric arcs wildly danced around him.
The myriad fragments seemed to be drawn, forming a silver serpent's body, swimming around Reino.
Endless silver Thunder Power climbed up, starting from the head, accompanied by crackling sounds, extending all the way to the serpent's tail.
The silver giant serpent seemed to be endowed with life, its vertical pupils suddenly lighting up.
Roar!!!!!
A hundred-meter-long silver giant serpent, flicking its tongue, coiled around Reino, looking terrifying.
magic blade thousand blades' Second Form!
Forest Anaconda!!!
Reino gently stroked the silver serpent's body, infusing it with high-density Armament Haki: Ryuo, and a new skin color gradually emerged on the giant serpent's surface.
Thunder Power, Armament Haki: Ryuo, and the magic blade thousand blades—all of Reino's attack methods besides swordsmanship, were now fully displayed before everyone in this form.
Reino's lips curled into a cold smile as he stared at Garp and Kizaru, uttering a chilling sound: "Come and fight!!!"
Roar!!!
As if receiving his signal, the hundred-meter-tall silver giant anaconda opened its bloody maw, roaring ferociously as it charged towards Garp and Kizaru, its momentum immense.
Along the way, thunder rumbled, piercing the sky!!
Garp clenched his fists, his vast, sea-like Armament Haki rippling around him, charging towards the giant anaconda with an unstoppable force.
Back then, with these iron fists, he could chase Pirate King Roger all over the world. Would he be afraid of a mere beast?
Compared to Garp, Kizaru's expression was undoubtedly much more solemn.
The reason was simple: Garp specialized in physical combat and Haki. Both his offensive power and defensive strength were absolutely top-tier.
But he relied too heavily on his Devil Fruit, and his Haki development was far inferior to Garp's.
Armament Haki: Ryuo posed a fatal threat to him.
"Reino, you cannot be allowed to live today!!!"
"ama no murakumo sword!!"
No longer fishing around, Kizaru held his golden light sword, his Observation Haki locked onto the giant anaconda's vital spot, and with a flash of his body, he charged forward at extreme speed.
"Good timing!!!"
"Thunder Dragon's Wrath!!!" Reino's eyes were like torches, his fighting spirit soaring.
From its bloody maw, a ferocious dragon's roar was unleashed!
Some blade fragments, mixed with furious thunder, spun at high speed, forming a tornado storm, carrying a powerful tearing force towards the attacking Kizaru.
The next second, the three intertwined powers collided with Kizaru's ama no murakumo sword without showing any weakness.
"Damn it!!!" Kizaru gritted his teeth, parrying with his sword, his tall, thin body constantly retreating, leaving a very deep mark on the ground.
Now, he not only lacked his previous calm demeanor but even wanted to curse out loud.
Thunder Power that could destroy everything, Armament Haki: Ryuo, and a famous sword that could be freely combined—were these really abilities a rookie pirate should possess?!
At the same time, Garp's fist came flying.
Although it was a simple, unadorned punch, like Mihawk's normal attack, one punch was enough to split mountains and crack stones.
"Reino, die for me!!!" Garp's eyes were wide with fury, his iron fists breaking the sound barrier.
His grandson's revenge, the lives of dozens of Marine Soldiers, and the threat to justice.
No matter which one it was, he would not allow Reino to live past tomorrow.
"Garp, don't celebrate too early!!" Reino's lips twisted into a cold smile.
His right hand swung, and the dozens-of-meters-long ferocious serpent's tail wildly swayed, sweeping towards Garp.
Wherever the serpent's tail went, strong winds rose, and the earth cracked layer by layer.
Boom!!!
The silver-red serpent's tail fearlessly collided with Garp's iron fist.
The two wrestled in the air, erupting in waves of incredibly powerful energy shockwaves that wildly swept in all directions.
With the battlefield of the three as the center, within a thousand-meter radius, it was completely transformed into a death zone.
Even just the residual shockwaves could easily kill a pirate with a bounty over 100 million.
For Reino, facing two Admirals (in terms of combat power) simultaneously was the most exhilarating battle he had experienced since setting sail.
Boom boom boom!!!
Boom boom boom!!!
Garp's face was ferocious, his fists like the wind, delivering afterimages of punches.
Reino was not to be outdone, continuously pouring the Armament Haki within his body into the giant anaconda.
In a prolonged battle, he was invincible!
It's a pity he hasn't mastered Haoshoku (Conqueror's Haki) coating yet; otherwise, he would directly kill this old man!!
The more Garp fought, the more alarmed he became. Controlling such a large giant anaconda and releasing multiple abilities would undoubtedly consume a tremendous amount of stamina.
After fighting for so long, Reino not only showed no signs of fatigue but even seemed to be getting stronger with each clash.
What kind of monster was this guy?!!
"Kizaru, hold it off, I'll kill this beast!!!" Garp's expression turned cold as he roared at Kizaru, who was not far away.
As his voice fell, he shot up into the sky like a cannonball leaving its barrel.
Kizaru's face twisted in bitterness, but his movements were not slow.
In a battle between powerhouses, there could be no hesitation. Even a single second could determine the outcome of the fight.
Normally, he might slack off, but facing Reino, he dared not make the slightest mistake.
"Hehehe... Reino, to push Vice Admiral Garp to this extent, you can be proud!!!"
Kizaru blocked the ferocious serpent's tail that was trying to pursue Garp, leaped into the sky, crossed his hands, and again formed his orchid-finger pose.
"Yasakani no Magatama!!!"
Reino looked up at the sky, as countless flashing projectiles rained down, shooting from all directions towards the hundred-meter giant anaconda.
He could clearly sense that these projectiles were all imbued with high-density Armament Haki, and compared to the Yasakani no Magatama from before, their power was immeasurably stronger.
However,
Reino's lips curled into a slight smile, and he raised his arm.
The hundred-meter giant anaconda took a deep breath, as if to swallow the entire sky into its belly.
Puffing out its cheeks, it let out a roaring dragon's cry!
Roar!!!
Terrifying Thunder Power, imbued with Flowing Cherry Blossom Power, surged in all directions, traveling tens of thousands of meters.
Boom boom boom!!!
Boom boom boom!!!
As expected, all the golden flash projectiles were once again detonated by the Thunder Power, and the sky was engulfed in a sea of fire.
"Kizaru, get out of the way!!!"
Just then, above the sea of fire,
A terrifying aura, so powerful that even Reino was moved by it, surged forth.
Kizaru secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
"Reino, die for this old man!!!"
"Fist Bone Impact!!!"
An enraged Garp tore through the sea of fire and descended from the sky.
Black and red currents intertwined and wrapped around his body.
Garp swung his iron fist, imbued with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, like a falling meteor, smashing fiercely down onto the hundred-meter giant anaconda below.
This move was his signature technique, extremely powerful.
Garp had once defeated many famous and prominent great pirates with this move.
Even from a distance, Reino could clearly feel a powerful punch wind rushing towards him.
"Is this Haoshoku (Conqueror's Haki) coating?!!" Reino licked his crimson lips, his eyes gleaming with undisguised greed.
This was the true pass for a top powerhouse!!
Garp's face showed a fierce light, his attack arriving in an instant, "Break for me!!!"
The hundred-meter giant anaconda raised its head, soaring into the sky, and fiercely collided with Garp's iron fist.
The moment the two collided, an explosion-like roar echoed through the sky, and a visible energy shockwave erupted, rapidly spreading in all directions.
Rumble
Rumble
Wherever the shockwave reached, the ground cracked layer by layer.
The high-rise buildings within Judicial Island successively collapsed, turning into ruins.
Everything was crushed into dust; nothing could stop it for even a second.
"Cough, cough, cough," Kizaru flashed to Garp's side, using his hand to clear the smoke and dust, "Vice Admiral Garp, is that kid still alive?!!!"
Garp's face was slightly red. He activated his Observation Haki to scout, and his expression turned grim as he said: "Reino has the power of teleportation. He won't die that easily."
Of course, he hadn't intended to instantly kill Reino with one move; he just wanted to destroy that giant anaconda.
Damn it, it was really too annoying.
Ordinary methods simply couldn't deal with it.
"As expected of Hero Garp, the power of this move is indeed impressive."
Before Garp could even catch his breath, a teasing voice sounded behind them.
Both of their pupils suddenly constricted, and they sharply turned around.
They saw Reino walking towards them at a leisurely pace, and beside him, a hundred-meter giant anaconda was still coiled.
"I...%!!!" Kizaru truly couldn't hold back and cursed out loud, losing his composure.
So, Garp's attack just now was for nothing, was it?!!
Garp's face was also ashen, so angry that his molars were almost shattered.
Playing him for a fool?!
Reynold snapped his fingers, a slight smirk playing on his lips: "A giant anaconda without a physical body, no matter how many times you shatter it, I can instantly re-form it."
"If you're done fighting, now it's my turn!!!"
Reynold gripped the magic blade thousand blades's hilt, recalled half of the blade fragments, and reassembled them into a complete sword.
At the same time, the remaining blade fragments began to spin at high speed, splitting into hundreds of meter-long'swimming snakes'.
All the'swimming snakes' were driven by Thunder Power and Ryou.
Hundreds of'swimming snakes' simultaneously opened their ferocious mouths and bit towards Garp.
Garp's hair stood on end, and he quickly defended himself.
What he feared was not the snakes, but the Ryou condensed on their bodies, coupled with Thunder Power; even he dared not underestimate it.
Kizaru's expression grew even uglier, as Reynold turned to look at him.
Reynold gripped the complete sword, assembled from half of the fragments, and pointed it at Kizaru opposite him, grinning: "Kizaru, now it's your turn."
Reynold leaped, directly jumping tens of meters into the air, his muscles rippling.
"Lion • Thousand Severing Valley!!!"
With a low roar, Reynold's body burst with golden light, merging with the silver-white Thunder Power.
Swish swish swish
Swish swish swish
More than a dozen high-altitude leaping slashes shot out simultaneously, striking towards Kizaru opposite him.
Using the magic blade thousand blades as a medium, each sword energy was intertwined with Thunder Power, Ryou, and great swordsman-level sword techniques.
Each slash carried the power to easily cut through a mountain.
The sword energy swept across the ground, carving out ferocious sword marks on the hard surface.
"This is... Golden Lion Shiki's sword technique!!!" Kizaru gritted his teeth, his face solemn.
Without time to think, Kizaru swiped his hands, immediately condensing the ama no murakumo sword.
Pika Pika no Mi Ability, Armament Haki, all his methods were unleashed, destroying Reynold's slashes one after another.
But his body was also forced to retreat repeatedly by Reynold's slashes, and the hand holding the ama no murakumo sword was trembling.
"Break for me!!!" Kizaru's eyes were bloodshot, and he used all his strength to destroy the last slash.
However, just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the Observation Haki in his body suddenly warned him.
He spun around abruptly, and Reynold's cruel smile immediately came into his view.
"Severing Wave!!!" Reynold held the sword with both hands and slashed down fiercely from above!
A flying slash tens of meters long whistled out, reaching Kizaru almost instantly.
Kizaru's face changed dramatically, and the Observation Haki in his body became unprecedentedly agitated.
Death, he smelled the scent of death!!!
"Get lost, you old man!!!" Instinct made Kizaru raise the ama no murakumo sword in front of him immediately.
The next second, the slash directly struck the ama no murakumo sword.
Boom!!!
Under the immense force, Kizaru fell from the sky like a meteor, smashing a deep pit into the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"Kizaru!!!" Garp was greatly alarmed and wanted to leave the battlefield to provide support.
However, hundreds of'swimming snakes' swarmed from all directions like maggots on a bone, giving him no chance.
Even if he destroyed these'swimming snakes', they would instantly reform, endlessly annoying him.
There were only two ways to completely deal with them.
One was to kill Reynold, and the other was to wait for Reynold to run out of stamina, and the'swimming snakes' would automatically dissipate.
However, whenever Garp wanted to kill Reynold, Reynold would instantly teleport, and he couldn't even see his exhaust.
As for the latter, it made him feel even stranger.
Reynold was like a perpetual motion machine, with inexhaustible stamina.
Even he was breathing heavily after fighting until now, but Reynold still looked effortless.
Garp's mental state was truly about to collapse; he had never fought such a frustrating battle.
Kizaru, you'll have to pray for yourself.
Reynold glanced at Garp indifferently; it wasn't that he didn't want to deal with this old man.
It was just that his defense was too strong, and Ryou alone couldn't inflict fatal damage on him.
He could only settle for second best and target Kizaru.
Not listening to the teacher's words and overly relying on Devil Fruit Ability was the consequence now.
Below, dust filled the air, and Reynold activated Observation Haki, searching for Kizaru's aura.
"Found you!!!" Reynold's gaze sharpened, fixing on a spot near some ruins.
"Cough cough cough" Kizaru transformed into golden particles and escaped from the ruins.
Compared to before, he looked a bit disheveled now.
A trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his once neatly tailored yellow suit was already a rag, and he had lost one lens of his sunglasses at some point.
His aura was also much weaker.
"Reynold!!!" Kizaru's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Reynold.
How many years had it been? He himself had almost forgotten how many years it had been since he was injured.
Even facing the Yonko, he could retreat unscathed.
He never expected to be injured by a stinky brat who had just set sail less than two months ago.
This was intolerable!
"Reynold, if I don't kill you today, I am unworthy of being an Admiral!!!"
Boom!!!
A powerful aura completely erupted, golden light swirling around Kizaru, and the next second, one Kizaru after another separated from his body.
In just a moment, ten identical Kizarus appeared in the sky.
One of the Pika Pika no Mi Abilities.
Not only could it create clones, but these clones even had a certain degree of combat awareness and could also use Pika Pika no Mi Ability to attack enemies.
The ten Kizarus simultaneously crossed their hands, their fingers glowing golden.
Within a radius of several hundred meters in the sky, dense golden lights began to shine.
Reynold stared at the ten Kizarus in the sky, his eyes slightly narrowed, it was Yasakani no Magatama again.
As an Admiral, were his skills so limited?!
Kizaru had exhausted his tricks, but he still had stronger moves!!
Reynold gripped the magic blade thousand blades tightly, raised the blade, and the Armament Haki in his body erupted like a volcanic eruption, all of it pouring into the magic blade thousand blades.
Buzz buzz buzz
Buzz buzz buzz
The magic blade thousand blades vibrated, seemingly sending signals of excitement to Reynold.
At this moment, Reynold no longer held back in the slightest.
He couldn't kill Garp today, but Kizaru, there was a great chance!!
He wouldn't act unless he had to, but once he did, he would definitely kill him with the force of thunder!!!
Reynold took a deep breath, mobilizing all the abilities in his body, frantically pouring them into the magic blade thousand blades.
"Reynold, die for this old man!!!"
The ten Kizarus performed the same action, and golden flash bombs rained down from the sky, accurately captured by Observation Haki, all shooting towards Reynold.
At the same time, the ten Kizarus simultaneously summoned the ama no murakumo sword, anticipating Reynold's sudden sneak attack.
Kizaru was truly scared!!
"Kizaru, take this move!!!" Reynold's gaze sharpened, Observation Haki locked onto Kizaru's main body, and the magic blade thousand blades was suddenly swung out!
"Hakoku!!!"
