"Mahoroba!"
Yamato swung her Kanabō, now encased in ice crystals, directly into a samurai's face, smashing it so hard that his entire face caved in. As a result, his head was completely encased in ice.
The ice crystals on the club then expanded into a white mist. Yamato spun her body, and the mist trailed through the air, forming a bright white arc.
In an instant, the surrounding samurai were frozen into ice sculptures.
"Hehe! It's not over yet!"
A joyful smile spread across the young girl's face. She lowered her body, and with a sudden burst of power from her slender legs, she exclaid, "Himorogiri"
Yamato transford into a blur of white light, weaving through the attacking samurai.
One by one, the samurai were sent flying into the air. Their limbs twisted, and the spots where they were hit were completely frozen.
The white figure soared into the sky, descending upon a terrified samurai, "Ice Piercing Slash!"
BAM!
With a resounding crash, the unfortunate samurai was shattered into pieces of ice.
"Lady Yamato! Wait for !"
Fukurokuju was constantly chasing after Yamato.
He couldn't allow any harm to co to her.
But, she truly was Kaido's daughter! Even at just eight years old, she could fight off elite samurai with ease.
Of course, she still couldn't compare to His Majesty Ian. That man was a monster among monsters!
Hmm?
Fukurokuju's eyes narrowed as he suddenly shouted, "Get back!"
His earlobes stretched out, striking a samurai wielding a dark blade, forcing him back.
Although Lady Yamato was strong, these samurai who could use Ryuo were still too much for her at this stage.
He couldn't let them get close to Lady Yamato!
Alongside him, the elite Oniwabanshu ninjas and the best of the samurai surrounded Yamato, allowing her to fight freely.
anwhile...
BOOM!!
On one side of the battlefield, a massive explosion erupted. A crimson fire tornado shot up into the sky, its surface covered with a layer of golden flas.
The deafening roar made the world fall silent, and the searing heat wave that followed felt like it could evaporate everything.
"Oh! Has Ian started fighting?"
Yamato grinned as she gazed at the fire tornado. "I can't fall behind!"
"Thunderclap Eight Trigrams!"
The crimson flas gradually dissipated.
A golden dragon slowly descended, its wings flapping.
Ian was breathing heavily.
His head was spinning, and his body felt as weak as noodles.
But the high expenditure of energy had yielded trendous destructive power.
In front of him was a deep crater—not large, but deep enough.
After enduring such an intense heat, not a trace of lava remained in the pit. The shattered stones and debris had vanished completely, and even the surrounding area was pristine.
Everything had been obliterated.
Whether it was rock or soil, everything had been erased by the destructive flas, reduced to nothingness, leaving no remnants behind.
The law of conservation of matter had been completely defied—this was the power of Sun God's Wrath.
But...
"No way?"
Ian tilted his head in disbelief.
At the bottom of the pit lay two charred figures, their breaths weak, unable to move.
But one figure was still standing.
He stood proudly, his head held high as he faced Ian.
Though his entire body was pitch black, with his skin and clothes scorched away, and even his outer muscles burned to a crisp, leaving him unrecognizable, Ian could still tell from his stature that this was Shimotsuki Ushimaru.
Yet, he was still standing.
Standing tall.
How could he still be standing?
"Hah—"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru breathed slowly, his chest rising and falling with each labored breath.
The sword in his hand had been destroyed, so he drew a short tanto.
His body tensed, muscles in his legs coiling.
In the next instant, he transford into a streak of lightning, dashing up the steep walls of the pit, charging straight at Ian.
"Blaze Cannon!"
Without hesitation, Ian opened his mouth and unleashed a torrent of flas.
Compared to when he was at his peak, these flas were far weaker, their color now a pale gold.
Shimotsuki Ushimaru simply slashed through the raging flas with his Armant Haki-infused tanto, cutting them apart as he leaped toward Ian.
Ian's massive claws, wreathed in fire, curved inward as he brought them together like a closing maw.
"Winged Dragon's Fanged Bite!"
However, to Ian's surprise, Shimotsuki Ushimaru showed no intention of dodging. Instead, he enveloped himself in Haki, bracing as he was struck directly by Ian's powerful blow.
"Ugh!"
Despite Shimotsuki Ushimaru's Armant Haki being slightly stronger than Hyougoro's, he couldn't help but scream in pain after taking Ian's powerful blow head-on.
After all, Ian's strength in his dragon form far surpassed that of his human-beast form, and his hands were engulfed in flas.
What is this guy thinking?
Even after suffering such severe injuries, he's not dodging my attacks?
Could he be relying on sheer willpower to fight back?
Ian had already prepared himself to transform into his Sphere Mode to withstand the attacks.
Suddenly, Ian felt a sharp pain in his palm.
His hand had been pierced.
But this minor injury was nothing; it didn't even reach the bone.
On the contrary, Shimotsuki Ushimaru was now in a dire situation, caught firmly in Ian's grasp.
But why is he doing this?
"How is this possible?"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru looked at Ian, who was still in his golden dragon form, with utter shock. "Why isn't it working?"
Ian was puzzled.
What's this guy so surprised about?
He couldn't have seriously thought a small wound to the hand would defeat , right?
"But it was..."
Shimotsuki Ushimaru muttered to himself, "Sea-Prism Stone..."
He had originally planned to use it against Kaido.
But why?
Why isn't it working?
What kind of monster is this brat!
Sea-Prism Stone?
Ian imdiately understood.
No wonder he was so determined to protect that short blade, even if it ant sacrificing his main sword.
So, it was a weapon made of Sea-Prism Stone.
If it had been any other Devil Fruit user, he might have actually beaten them.
But unfortunately for him, gods remain unaffected!
Forget about the Sea-Prism Stone; he could even take a bath in the ocean and then fly back into the sky.
For the record, Ian's resistance cos from his abilities. He can only ignore the negative effects of various abilities while in his powered-up form. In his human form, however, it's a different story.
If Ian had been in his human form and touched the Sea-Prism Stone, he would have already collapsed.
Since your plan has failed, now—
It's my turn!
Ian, fighting against the weakness in his body, tightened his grip on Shimotsuki Ushimaru with all his strength. Flas roared from his palms, burning Shimotsuki Ushimaru and making him scream in agony.
Then, with both hands raised high, he slamd down with trendous force.
"Winged Dragon's Hamr!"
The earth shattered, and cracks like spider webs spread out in all directions.
"Ugh!"
At the bottom of the crater created by the blow, the blood spewing from Shimotsuki Ushimaru's mouth evaporated instantly, his shattered eyes now rolled white.
Ian took a deep breath, not relenting in his advantage, and continued the relentless assault with fire swirling around his hands.
"Winged Dragon's Iron Fist!"
A barrage of twenty punches!
His fists ca crashing down like a torrential storm, the enormous fists shattering the ground and the shockwaves stirring up a tempest.
At first, Shimotsuki Ushimaru could barely manage to harden his defense with his willpower, but soon, he could no longer even defend.
He was barely holding on by a thread, and now, faced with Ian's continuous heavy strikes, he had no strength left to resist.
He could only watch helplessly as Ian raised his hands, the flas of his left and right hands rging into a gigantic fireball above the golden dragon's hands.
Is this the end?
What will beco of Wano Country in the future?
"Blaze Cannon!"
The fireball descended.
Flas consud everything.
