"The Beasts Pirates' ships... they've all turned into submarines?"
Redfield stood atop the combined robot's shoulder while looking down.
While surprising, this outco made sense.
They'd never considered Kaido a good man.
Every man for himself in desperate tis—utterly predictable...
After all, they'd been thinking the sa.
But first, they needed to deal with these four Logia Devil Fruit Users before them.
"Bullet, begin."
"Don't order around, old man." Bullet snorted coldly as the combined robot imdiately sprang to life.
"Marines... prepare to die!"
Upon activation, massive amounts of Armant Haki rapidly spread across the entire combined robot through the strange substance secreted by the Combine-Combine Fruit.
Before everyone's eyes stood a 100-ter-tall fortress entirely clad in Armant Haki.
"Hey hey hey, this level of Armant Haki is downright cheating!?" Smoker wiped his face, gritting his teeth.
"Not even Michael could pull this off!"
"Whether Michael could do it or not I don't know... but Bullet just did!" Crocodile's lips curled into a dangerous smirk.
"I always suspected this man had hidden cards to play... So this was his move."
"But... there's no need to be too afraid." Stella cast a cold glance. "It's mainly due to the synergy between Armant Haki and his own rge-rge Fruit... If his Armant Haki could truly cover such a massive body, he would have already ruled the entire Grand Line by now."
"Anyway, round two... begins!" Enel's lifeless eyes fixed intently on Redfield. "My target... is still this guy."
"I'll help you!"
Smoker clenched two cigars between his teeth, took a deep drag, and then transford into thick smoke swirling with embers, encircling Redfield.
Unlike before, Redfield didn't resist.
Instead, he allowed Smoker to wrap around his body.
Gazing at the surrounding smoke, he sighed.
"Among these four Logia Devil Fruits... your 'smoke' elent must be the most useless, right?"
"Whether it's lethality or control, both seem rather diocre."
Smoker's face abruptly materialized not far away, sneering at the Lone Red Haired.
"Is that how you feel? Tsk tsk, truly outdated thinking... You really are uncultured!"
"Though smoke may seem like it can be blown away with a single breath... the thick smoke from a fire can smolder at temperatures exceeding seven hundred degrees!"
Redfield froze—he genuinely hadn't heard such a thing before.
After all, back in the day, how many seafarers would study various cultural subjects like the current Marines?
In that brief mont of contemplation, the smoke had already completely engulfed Redfield.
"SMOKE·Blast Furnace!"
"60 Million Volts·Raigou!"
Enel struck the drums on his shoulders with his golden staff.
The lightning he generated surged from the drums, perfectly shaping into a massive thunder dragon that charged toward its target!
This improvised combo attack... Was effective!
But not by much!
"My, my... youngsters these days really can't be underestimated."
Redfield's voice rang out alongside the sound of two sword slashes.
Instantly shredding the smoke furnace to pieces.
With the enhanced physical prowess granted by his Mythical Zoan form, Redfield's terrifying swordsmanship and dual Haki were displayed to their fullest.
Even Smoker's initial control hadn't managed to make him truly suffer from this attack.
"Heh, Redfield... having fun, are you?" Bullet's muffled voice echoed through the rged robot.
"Well then, it's my turn now."
The hundred-ter-tall rged robot raised its head, its fist entirely coated in purplish-black Armant Haki, and swung toward Crocodile and Stella in midair.
The two frowned.
Such a straightforward attack... was still a massive threat.
Because its sheer raw power was overwhelming.
However, its speed wasn't as fast as expected.
Just as Crocodile was about to disperse through her Logia intangibility, the voice of the recently boosted World rang out again.
"Moa moa·Tenfold Speed!"
The originally average-speed giant fist suddenly accelerated tenfold!
Crocodile's pupils dilated sharply!
The punch landed on her almost unavoidably!
Even as she instinctively mobilized all her strength for defense, the impact still left her feeling as though her internal organs had been violently displaced!
With great effort, she canceled her elentalization and appeared not far away.
"Damn it! Bullet, you really found yourself a loyal dog!"
"Oh? Is that you, Crocodile?" Bullet's voice carried a hint of surprise. "When we fought back then, I rember you were a man... But whatever, you'll die here today anyway... gender doesn't matter anymore."
"Is that so?"
At that mont, several elasticity-enhanced clouds condensed in mid-air.
A figure then began bouncing rapidly between them, building up speed.
"Then you'd better dodge this next punch..."
"Or you'll die too."
Stella suddenly raised her head, her eyes blazing with fire.
This was completely different from her usual gentle, mature deanor—instead, she looked eerily similar to...
"That expression... isn't that just Garp?" Smoker muttered, wiping sweat from his brow.
"I knew Stella was Garp's top disciple, but did she really have to imitate him in this aspect?"
After countless rebounds, the acceleration finally peaked.
A brilliant smile suddenly spread across Stella's face...
Then she launched herself once more...
Straight toward the massive combined robot.
"Cloud-Style: Fist Bone Impact!"
The instantaneous, unparalleled acceleration was sothing even Bullet in his tenfold speed state couldn't react to or evade.
Armant Haki condensed at a single point on Stella's right fist.
The mont it made contact with the robot's abdon—it exploded with devastating force.
The hundred-ter-tall combined robot and Stella—an extre contrast in size.
Yet this round belonged to the smaller one.
A single punch shattered all the Armant Haki covering Bullet's body.
The entire combined robot teetered precariously from the impact.
As Bullet barely stabilized his form and looked up, the woman before him was no longer the frail-looking figure who only seed capable of long-range elental attacks...
Now, Stella stood surrounded by drifting clouds.
Those clouds gradually wrapped around her body... forming a fitted exoskeleton armor.
Within the mist, dark wisps of Armant Haki swirled.
"Cloud-Style: Iron Maiden Warrior!"
