Imu felt an overwhelming sense of absurdity.

Even though the entity present here wasn't his main body, he shouldn't have been reduced to becoming another's food.

Moreover, this Marshall D. Teach was the son of that Rocks, and even possessed multiple Devil Fruit abilities.

If his main body wasn't currently attempting to occupy a certain other vessel, he would have considered making Blackbeard's body his primary vessel at this mont.

"Heh... I am truly being underestimated."

"Do you think that just because you can ignore Domi Reversi, you can be this arrogant?"

Anger flashed in his ringed eyes. The next mont, the black grimoire suddenly opened wide, and countless enormous weapons burst forth from within.

Bang!

Several massive shotguns fired towards Momoshiki. Pellets imbued with special power were sprayed out without restraint, forming a dense curtain of fire in the sky.

"Useless! Useless!"

Shinra Tensei!

An invisible repulsive force erupted spherically, firmly holding back these bullets outside the force field.

Simultaneously, those crimson chains slithered downwards like venomous snakes. The barbs at the chains' tips, like the fangs in a snake's mouth, glinted with lethal light.

Ding!

A giant dagger precisely struck the chain's tip, followed by a second, a third... a rain of countless daggers!

Imu manipulated the daggers from the grimoire in a continuous volley, while his other hand quietly raised.

"Filthy creature, only I deserve to stand above the heavens—"

The [Hecatoncheires], created earlier from Blackbeard's death throes using the entire Hachinosu island, finally 'ca alive'. Soil and rock layers, wrapped in thick Haki, transford into giant claws, lunging upwards.

The Monkey Rock created by Momoshiki couldn't even evade. Those suddenly appearing giant hands grasped its body in various places, then violently tore it into fragnts. Crimson magma cascaded downwards into the sea under gravity's pull.

The nearly hundred-ter-tall Monkey Rock was rely a little monkey before the Hecatoncheires with a diater exceeding ten kiloters.

Even the arms of this Hecatoncheires were dozens of ters thick. With just a wave, Monkey Rock truly beca a reckless monkey unable to escape the five-fingered mountain.

Those giant claws, after tearing Monkey Rock apart, continued their montum undiminished, reaching for Momoshiki above, as if intending to crush him like that.

But Imu had also greatly underestimated Momoshiki's power.

One must know that the scenes just now, resembling Logia users unleashing ultimate moves, were rely casual actions for Momoshiki fused with Karin, simply used to buy ti.

"re monkeys from the surface, stop your boasting!"

A greedy smile spread across Momoshiki's face. The Rinnegan in his palm suddenly widened, gathering a massive crimson energy sphere above it.

He had to admit, for a re ten-year-old Ninja, the life energy within Karin's body was terrifyingly abundant.

And this energy, brought by the Mythical Zoan fruit and Pure Gold, after being converted by him, beca an inexhaustible supply of Chakra.

Moves like the crimson Rasengan he had used to attack Naruto and Sasuke before his death could now be casually deployed like ordinary attacks.

So he simply compressed the Chakra further, packing even more energy into the limited space.

The crimson Rasengan condensed in his hand now contained over twenty tis the energy of the one he had released previously.

If this were to fall upon Konoha… tsk tsk, no matter how those annoying Ninjas struggled, it would be useless.

Boom!

Imu's ringed eyes reflected the increasingly bright crimson. The unknown energy sphere directly pierced through the approaching arms, continuing its montum undiminished towards his position.

"Dark Vortex: Deploy."

The sense of crisis was upon him.

He had to focus fully on utilizing Teach's Yami Yami no Mi, gathering all dark matter before him, forming a giant 'shield'.

Of course, the essence of this shield layer was still opening a portal to another dinsion, using spatial asymtry to transfer or neutralize the opponent's attack, or counterattack through [Liberation].

His plan was perfect, but reality was cruel.

Having existed for so many years as the apex being of this world, Imu had probably never imagined that there was a race where almost everyone could wield spatial power.

"Naive!"

Seeing the opponent indeed use that black substance, Momoshiki's smile widened. His golden Rinnegan spun rapidly.

Yomotsu Hirasaka!

Just before the dark vortex ford its black shield, the spatial gate of Yomotsu Hirasaka opened first, 'swallowing' the crimson Rasengan.

Almost simultaneously, another spatial gate opened beneath Imu. Crimson light could not be restrained from bursting through the gap of Yomotsu Hirasaka.

'What?!'

'Just how many abilities does this guy have!?'

This ti, even Imu was taken aback.

The crimson Rasengan was about to explode at close range. Imu could only muster all matter under his control before him, simultaneously unleashing a powerful blast of Conqueror's Haki.

Few knew that Conqueror's Haki could affect the stability of other energies.

If it were Joy Boy's Conqueror's Haki, it could even directly interrupt his Domi Reversi.

His action did indeed have so effect.

Originally, Momoshiki had intended to let the crimson Rasengan fully erge from Yomotsu Hirasaka before detonating it. Unexpectedly, the Chakra reacted prematurely upon being affected by Imu's Haki.

Humm—

An explosion, loud enough to instantly kill an ordinary person, resounded a thousand ters high. The blast wave directly ford hurricane-force winds spreading dozens of kiloters. Even the seawater was split apart by the impact, revealing various shipwrecks below.

Momoshiki himself was sent flying backward by the premature detonation of his own attack.

"Cough... quite troubleso, huh..."

Momoshiki covered his face with one hand, blocking the force from the explosion.

Imu below wasn't so lucky.

If even the one who unleashed the move couldn't avoid the recoil, the target naturally fared even worse.

The explosion's power exceeded his expectations. Even though he had prematurely detonated it, the blast radius still reached him.

More precisely, it reached Blackbeard's body.

'Tsk... can it also suppress regeneration like Haki?'

Imu thought unwillingly, looking at his half-destroyed body.

Originally, after he took over Teach's body, even the previously pierced heart had healed. But now, only half a heart remained in this body.

If not for his Domi Reversi power maintaining Teach's life, the man would already be dead.

'No...'

'I couldn't continue to wear down with this guy. Most of my power wasn't here now... just this guy's body alone was insufficient to deal with this monster before .'

That's right.

Even soone as strong as Imu had to admit internally that Momoshiki, utilizing one hundred percent of Karin's power, was now an outright 'monster' of the seas.

Not even the Emperors, not even Roger, were as troubleso as this guy.

With this thought, a pentagram array imdiately unfolded beneath his feet.

Before Momoshiki could react, Imu had already used long-distance teleportation to transfer away Blackbeard's half-destroyed body.

"Huh?! Bastard!!"

"He actually ran away!?"

"Don't you have even an ounce of dignity as a strong individual?"

Confusion first appeared on Momoshiki's face, then disbelief, and finally turned into humiliation and anger.

'Running away after just this little injury? How could this guy be such a coward?!'

'How was I supposed to 'eat' him then?!'

"...You were helpful just now, but now, it's ti to co back."

Misfortunes never co singly. Along with the failure of his devouring plan, the voice Momoshiki least wanted to hear ca from within his consciousness.

"No! This isn't how it should be!"

"You can't do this!"

"Damn female monkey! Lowly creature!"

"If not for , you would have died long ago!"

"The one who should possess this body is ! You don't even have the ability to use this power!"

"No!!!!"

Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Momoshiki was, the white bird-man rapidly transford back to gold.

"That was... close..."
