Chapter 193: The Desperate Shadow Revolution! The Scarlet Susanoo!
The Gekko was pale, piercing through the thick mist above Thriller Bark.
The massive giant Oars stood like a towering mountain in the center of the shattered ruins.
Moria's hands were like those of a mad artist manipulating a marionette, tightly grasping the huge shadow extending from beneath Oars' feet, then pulling it frantically to both sides.
"Kishishishi! Behold, this is my absolute power!"
Moria's shrill laughter echoed in the night sky, dripping with smugness.
"As long as I change the shape of this shadow, Oars' massive corpse is forced to change with it!"
"Even if he is a stiff corpse, he will be forcibly stretched!"
"This is the absolute rule of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit!"
Following Moria's movements.
Oars' originally thick and stiff corpse arms actually stretched out infinitely like real Gum-Gum, accumulating world-destroying terrifying kinetic energy.
"Meat—!!!"
Oars let out a roar that shook the heavens, a violent red light flickering in his hollow, giant eyes.
He swung his arms, which had been stretched to their limit, forward with a sudden burst.
"Gomu Gomu no—Gatling!"
In an instant, the sky was filled with giant fist shadows like a rain of black meteor rain falling from the sky, smashing down indiscriminately and frantically toward the Straw Hat below.
The first to bear the brunt were the three people at the very front.
"Three Sword Style..." Zoro gritted his teeth, his muscles bulging as he tried to swing his strongest slash to withstand this world-destroying offensive.
However, in the face of absolute mass and speed.
The azure sword energy he swung only held for half a second before being shattered by the giant fist that was like a small mountain.
The massive impact directly sent him flying.
"You damn garlic-head!"
Sanji ignited his Diable Jambe in mid-air, his scorching flying kick meeting the falling fist.
But that force, enough to kick through steel, was like an ant trying to shake a tree when it hit the surface of Oars' fist.
He was violently repelled by an unmatched reactionary force, his leg bone letting out an overwhelmed scream.
"Super—Iron Body!" Franky crossed his arms in front of him.
They were also smashed into deep depressions, sparks flying everywhere.
After just one round of violent bombardment.
Zoro, Sanji, and Franky were sent flying like kites with broken strings, buried deep within the rubble of the collapsed ruins.
At the edge of the dust-filled battlefield, Tatsuya knelt on one knee on the cracked stone slabs, panting heavily.
He looked up, his scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan staring intently at the rampaging giant.
He knew very well that in the face of this ancient monster whose size was like a mountain range, whose strength had no upper limit, and who felt no pain.
Ordinary Ninjutsu and Taijutsu had completely lost their meaning.
To reverse this desperate battle, the only way was to obtain even greater power.
A light blue screen flickered on his retina.
[Target Item: Mangekyo Sharingan]
[Exchange Requirement: 20,000 Ninja Points]
[Current Balance: 17,500 Ninja Points]
"Still 2,500 points short..."
Tatsuya gritted his teeth tightly, his scarlet eyes scanning the chaotic battlefield frantically.
"Ordinary zombies can't provide many Ninja Points at all. I must kill a plot character with enough weight!"
"But that bastard Moria is hiding in the cockpit in Oars' stomach. I can't reach him at all right now."
"Besides him, who else is there to kill on this island?!"
Just as Tatsuya's brain was working at high speed.
From the shadows of a ruin at the edge of the battlefield, a disgusting, ear-piercing laugh suddenly came.
"Hiss hiss hiss hiss! Hiss hiss hiss!"
A bloated man stepped out from behind a collapsed stone pillar.
It was the genius surgeon who had escaped in the corridor earlier—Dr. Hogback.
Dr. Hogback was not alone this time; behind him followed a massive elite zombie.
That zombie was a stitch-up of Masira's powerful body and a lion's ferocious head, its entire body emitting a thick stench of death and a violent aura.
Clearly, he had brought his most prized bodyguard to support Moria.
Dr. Hogback stood on high ground, looking down at the messy battlefield below.
His gaze quickly locked onto Robin and Nami, who appeared somewhat weak.
In his small eyes hidden behind sunglasses, an undisguised greed and lewdness instantly erupted.
"Kishishishi!"
"Lord Moria is doing a fantastic job!"
"Those troublesome men have been completely dealt with!"
Dr. Hogback pointed at Robin and Nami, dancing with excitement, his voice shrill and trembling:
"The shadows of those two top-tier women, and the life of that fire-using bastard who almost burned me to death just now, will be personally taken by me, Lord Hogback!"
"Go, my greatest masterpiece, tear them to pieces for me!"
Following Dr. Hogback's command, the giant Masira and lion hybrid zombie let out an ear-splitting roar.
Its thick hind legs slammed into the ground, and it pounced straight toward the defenseless Nami.
Hearing Dr. Hogback's arrogant voice, Tatsuya, who had been kneeling, suddenly had his eyes light up.
In those scarlet eyes, the original anxiety was swept away.
In its place was a cruel grin like that of a Shinigami from hell.
"Hogback?"
Tatsuya slowly stood up and stretched his aching neck.
"You were lucky enough to escape in the corridor earlier, and I was just worrying about not finding a suitable target..."
"Now it seems, this is truly a pillow delivered just as I was getting drowsy."
"Since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, I'll take your life without hesitation!"
Facing the pouncing elite stitched zombie, Tatsuya had no intention of defending or dodging.
"Boom!"
The zombie's giant beast claw, powerful enough to smash rocks, slammed hard against Tatsuya's chest.
But at the moment of contact, Tatsuya's chest had already been covered with a layer of indestructible, pitch-black Armament Haki.
A dull thud sounded as Tatsuya took the heavy blow head-on.
Not only that, he even used the massive reactionary force to push off hard with his feet.
The ground instantly collapsed into a large crater, and Tatsuya turned into a streak of black lightning, crossing dozens of meters in an instant, lunging directly in front of Dr. Hogback.
Before Dr. Hogback could react at all.
Tatsuya's right hand shot out like lightning, firmly grabbing his fat neck.
He lifted the man into the air like a small chick.
A strong sense of suffocation instantly flooded his brain. Dr. Hogback looked down at the man before him who was like a blood-soaked Shura.
The materialized killing intent emanating from those scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan caused the smug smile on his face to instantly freeze.
Deep fear made him lose control of his body, his legs kicking uselessly.
Then, a foul-smelling liquid flowed down his pant leg.
"W-wait! Don't kill me!!"
Dr. Hogback pleaded with difficulty.
"I am a world-renowned genius doctor... I am very valuable... you can use me..."
Tatsuya looked at him coldly, without a hint of pity in his eyes.
He slowly raised his free right hand.
"Zzzzt zzzzt—!!!"
Dazzling blue lightning instantly condensed and compressed in his palm, erupting with an ear-piercing screech like the chirping of a thousand birds.
"Chidori!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Tatsuya's right hand, carrying the violent high-voltage current, thrust forward fiercely!
"Puchi!"
The sound of a blade entering flesh rang out.
The incomparably sharp Raikiri light blade pierced directly through Dr. Hogback's chest without any resistance, precisely crushing his heart.
Dr. Hogback's eyeballs bulged out as he stared fixedly at the charred blood hole in his chest that went straight through.
A few meaningless "gurgle" sounds came from his throat, and his life was instantly extinguished.
Tatsuya coldly let go, tossing Dr. Hogback's corpse onto the dusty ground like a piece of discarded trash.
After dealing with this trouble, Tatsuya turned and walked quickly toward Nami not far away.
The stitched zombie, having lost its master's control, stood dazed in place, seemingly falling into confusion.
Seeing Tatsuya approach, Nami could no longer suppress the fear and helplessness in her heart.
Her eyes turned red, and she lunged forward, tightly hugging Tatsuya's waist.
"Tatsuya... Luffy and the others have all been defeated, we can't win against this monster..."
"Are we going to die here?"
Feeling the fear of the girl in his arms.
Tatsuya raised his hand and smiled very gently, patting her slender back reassuringly:
"Silly girl, what are you thinking?"
"With me here, how could I let you die in such a filthy place."
While Tatsuya was softly comforting Nami.
In the depths of his mind, the long-awaited mechanical system prompt finally sounded like heavenly music:
[Ding! Successfully killed one of the Thriller Bark Mysterious Three: Genius Doctor Dr. Hogback!]
[Significantly changed the plot direction. Reward: 3,000 Ninja Points.]
[Current Balance: 20,000 Ninja Points. Exchange for Mangekyo Sharingan immediately?]
Listening to this series of prompts, Tatsuya felt the blood in his entire body boiling.
"Exchange!!!"
At the same moment the system deducted the points and a wave of unprecedented mysterious power began to gestate in Tatsuya's eyes.
High up in the cockpit, Moria also noticed what was happening below.
When he saw with his own eyes that the genius doctor Dr. Hogback, whom he had spent countless efforts to recruit, had been easily dealt with by that man in glasses like killing a chicken.
Moria was beyond furious.
"You damn bastard!!!"
Moria trembled with rage, letting out a deafening roar:
"How dare you kill my subordinate right in front of me!"
"I'll make you pay the most painful price!"
"Trample them into meat paste along with this land! Oars!!!"
Receiving his master's furious command, the massive giant Oars let out a terrifying roar.
He slowly raised his right foot, which was as large as a small mountain.
A shadow cast down, completely enveloping Tatsuya, Nami, and Robin, who had just stood up.
"Die, insects!"
Accompanied by Moria's crazed laughter.
Oars' ten-thousand-ton giant foot, carrying a terrifying sonic boom that tore through the air, stomped down fiercely toward their position.
The violent wind pressure even sent the surrounding rubble flying everywhere.
The massive shadow instantly stripped away all light.
Facing this attack that was like the sky collapsing, Nami was in total despair.
She grabbed Tatsuya's clothes tightly and squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for death to arrive.
However, in the life-or-death moment when she could feel that destructive wind pressure.
Tatsuya suddenly looked up.
Two lines of bright red, striking blood suddenly flowed slowly from the corners of his eyes without warning.
But in those bleeding eyes, there was no hint of pain, only a supreme majesty that looked down upon the world.
The three black tomoe in Tatsuya's eyes, which were originally connected end to end, seemed to be driven frantically by some ancient power at this moment.
They began to rotate, interweave, and merge at a speed that transcended limits.
In just a split second, the three tomoe completely disappeared.
Finally, in his blood-red pupils, they transformed into a complex, eerie, and infinitely mysterious Mangekyo pattern.
At the moment these eyes opened.
"Susanoo!!!"
Accompanied by a low growl from Tatsuya's throat.
A violent surge of scarlet Chakra, like a super volcano that had been dormant for ten thousand years finally erupting, burst forth from Tatsuya's body without reservation.
"BOOM—!!!!!"
A world-shaking collision sound echoed through the clouds.
Oars' ten-thousand-ton earth-shattering stomp, carrying destructive kinetic energy enough to easily crush the entire castle into ruins...
Actually came to a dead stop in mid-air, not crushing the ground as expected.
The intense collision kicked up a massive cloud of dust that obscured the vision, and the entire Thriller Bark trembled violently under the impact.
The wind howled, quickly dispersing the thick dust around.
When the vision became clear again.
Nami, who had her eyes closed, and Robin, who was standing ready, opened their eyes in shock.
They hadn't been crushed into meat paste.
On the contrary, they found themselves standing in place, completely unharmed.
Around them, at some point, they had appeared inside a massive scarlet skeleton composed of pure energy.
Through those massive blood-colored ribs that were as hard as steel.
They saw with shock a scarlet skeletal giant with only its upper body.
Like a god crawling out of hell, it was rising from the ground majestically.
This scarlet Chakra giant extended its two incredibly thick skeletal arms, holding them up steadily.
Relying on a pure energy entity, it caught the ancient giant Oars' world-destroying stomp without budging an inch!
High in the sky.
Moria, who had been laughing frantically, now had his eyes bulging so much they almost fell out of their sockets.
He stared fixedly at the scarlet Chakra giant that had suddenly appeared below like a demon god from hell, his fat body trembling uncontrollably.
"W-what the hell is this?!"
"It blocked Oars' stomp?!"
"Is this guy... also a complete monster?!"
The wind whipped up Tatsuya's tattered clothes.
He stood steadily in the very center of Susanoo.
Two lines of blood still hung from the corners of his eyes, but they added a bit of eerie and arrogant beauty to him.
Tatsuya slightly raised his chin, his Mangekyo Sharingan emitting terrifying ocular power as he coldly looked at Moria in the cockpit above.
A cold smile slowly curled on his lips:
"Moria..."
"Your boring juggling act is completely over."
"Now, it's my turn."
