Chapter 230 The Liberator
Chapter 230 The Liberator
Just when Charlotte Palace took the initiative to approach BIG MOM, Saint Gerolith also set his sights on Kaido, the King of Beasts.
Although Saint Gerolito has always been committed to granting liberation to all untouchables equally, and even clashed with Saint Baldura who liked to torture and kill his prey, compared to ordinary pirates, the Pirate Emperor Kaido is obviously more valuable!
"Get out of here! Hot breath!"
Kaido, who had just been hit on the forehead by a powerful rocket, was in a state of manic rage. Even though he sensed a hint of danger from Saint Gerolito, he still sprayed his hot breath at him without hesitation.
The blazing flames instantly engulfed Saint Gerolith, forming a huge ball of flame burning in mid-air.
However, the next moment, the huge ball of flame shrank rapidly like a deflated balloon, revealing Saint Jerolit who was sucking in the air and swallowing the flames into his stomach.
With his ultimate life restoration, Saint Jerolit can not only deform his muscles and bones at will, but can even change the structure of his internal organs and withstand high pressure equivalent to hundreds of atmospheres and high temperature of tens of thousands degrees Celsius.
"Accept the liberation!"
Saint Gerolito, who absorbed all the flames spewed by Kaido into his stomach, swelled up a lot, and fire kept coming out of his mouth and nose.
Then Saint Jerolit opened his mouth towards the pirates rushing towards him, and the flames that were compressed to the extreme shot out like lasers, burning hundreds of pirates to ashes with just one strike.
"Damn it! Thunderous gossip!"
Seeing that the Beasts Pirates, which he had worked so hard to form, suffered heavy casualties, an enraged Kaido rushed straight towards Saint Gerold.
After witnessing Saint Geralt's ability to breathe fire, the battle-hardened Kaido decisively gave up long-range attacks that might be used by the enemy and chose to use close combat to eliminate the enemy in front of him.
Although in the eyes of many people, Kaido, the King of Beasts, with his bad temper and capriciousness, can basically be equated with a cold-blooded animal, but for his recognized subordinates, Kaido is undoubtedly a trustworthy leader!
The mace wrapped in pitch-black lightning came whistling with a sharp sound of breaking wind. Even a strong man like Saint Gerolito could not help but change his expression slightly when facing this terrifying blow.
As the Knight of God, Saint Gerolito is not as stupid as his fellow Celestial Dragons. He knows very well what the Pirate Emperor means, and he also knows that he is probably no match for Kaido.
However, when choosing his opponent, Saint Jerolit still made the mistake of taking things for granted. He only knew that he could fight against Ancient Saint Green, who was also a top-level powerhouse, but he forgot that Ancient Saint Green would not have the intention to kill him.
"Life returned!"
Realizing that the situation was not good, Jerolit Saint took a deep breath, and the originally muscular 'Devil Muscle Man' quickly expanded his body and turned into a nearly spherical fat man, which looked a bit funny at first glance.
However, when Kaido's mace hit him, Saint Gerolito's fat body showed extraordinary resistance to the blow.
The skin strengthened by Life Return is tougher than the epidermis of Sea Kings. Even Kaido's mace can hardly break through it. Even the huge impact force carried by the mace is absorbed by Jerolit Saint's unusually soft body.
But at this time Kaido grinned and revealed his white teeth. The next moment, countless black thunders suddenly exploded on the mace, tearing apart Saint Gerolito's defense like the claws of a beast.
When the double defense of life return and armed color domineering were defeated, Jerolit's body could no longer withstand Kaido's strange power, and the mace wrapped in domineering color domineering even directly blasted into the body of this knight of God.
'boom! ’
The severely injured Saint Geralt was blasted down from mid-air by Kaido. Although he absorbed most of the damage with the help of Life Return, the domineering domineering wrapped around the mace still blasted a big bloody hole in Saint Geralt's abdomen.
Through the hole, one could even see the internal organs that were crushed by the mace and the white spine. Most people would be dead if they suffered such injuries. Even with the recovery ability of an animal-type devil fruit user, they would not be able to continue fighting in a short period of time.
However, what Kaido did not expect was that Saint Gerolito, who was seriously injured by him, did not lose his combat effectiveness. The almost dying Knight of God simply grabbed the captain of God's army and bit the opponent's neck like a vampire.
The captain of the divine army whose neck was bitten let out a terrified scream, and his strong body quickly deflated like a leaking balloon. Correspondingly, the wounds on Saint Jerolit's body shrank and healed rapidly, and he was completely healed in the blink of an eye.
"Bah! It turns out that the taste of inferior people is always so unbearable no matter how many times I taste it..."
Throwing aside the captain of the God's army who had been sucked into a 'mummy', Saint Jerolit spoke with a hint of disgust.
The soldiers of the Divine Army nearby seemed to be well prepared. They caught the dying captain and sent him to the hospital in the rear.
Saint Jerolit, who has mastered the art of life return to perfection, can not only perfectly control himself, but can also forcibly absorb the essence of others to heal injuries and restore physical strength.
However, considering that the God's Army is the most loyal lackeys of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, Saint Jerolit, who was still able to remain rational, deliberately spared the life of the captain of the God's Army.
"Ha ha ha ha ha, it turns out to be you... How dare you let me see you again..."
Seeing Saint Gerolith appear in front of him again, Kaido grinned and couldn't help laughing out loud. He remembered when he had seen this guy before.
At that time, Kaido was just a trainee on Rocks' ship. Not to mention causing trouble for Saint Gerolith, he couldn't even escape the pursuit of the navy.
Fortunately, holding grudges is a common nature of pirates. Kaido, in particular, is a pirate among pirates. He is a monster with extraordinary talent in holding grudges!
However, until this moment, Saint Gerolito had not remembered that he had met Kaido, the Hundred Beasts. Seeing Kaido laughing wildly and not taking him, the Knight of God, seriously at all, Saint Gerolito looked unhappy.
The so-called Pirate Emperor is essentially still a lowly and untouchable person. He is merciful and willing to grant equal liberation to the untouchables, but this mercy is not a reason for Kaido to offend him!
"Great Liberation Fist: Thorn Punishment!"
Saint Gerolith rushed towards Kaido without saying a word. He wanted to grant true relief to this monster who dared to offend the Knight of God!
"Roar! Great and mighty Thunderous Bagua!"
Kaido clenched the mace tightly in both hands, and countless dark lightning exploded beside him. As long as he could kill this troublesome guy in front of him, the hegemony of the world would be right in front of him!
At this moment, Baishou didn't even have time to care about Boros, who had not taken any action until now. He wanted to get the secret hidden by the Celestial Dragons before everyone else.
The clash between the two divine knights and the Pirate Emperor directly cleared out a large area of the battlefield. Even pirates with bounties of hundreds of millions of berries could not withstand the aftermath of the monsters' fight.
Therefore, both pirates and soldiers of the God's Army consciously avoided these real monsters.
"Boom!" However, there were more than just those few monsters on the battlefield at this time. A group of pirates from the Big Mom Pirates were besieging a captain of the God's Army. Suddenly, a violent shock wave came over, directly blasting the pirates and the God's Army within a radius of dozens of meters into blood foam.
“Hahahahaha! This is a gift bestowed upon you by the descendants of the Creator! Divine Impact!”
Saint Baldora unscrupulously unleashed the power of the Impact Fruit, crushing all those untouchables who, in his eyes, were not even as good as cockroaches. Even the soldiers of the God's Army who were fighting with pirates were not spared.
It is true that there are members in the Order of God who recognize the value of God's Army, but there are even more Knights of God like Saint Baldora who are arrogant and regard everyone except their own people as livestock and pariahs.
"Ice Dragon Roar!"
Esdeath, who had just arrived at the battlefield, went straight to Saint Baldora. Although she didn't care about the lives of these pirates, Saint Baldora's strength was enough to arouse Esdeath's interest.
"Huh? I didn't expect that among these lowly pirates, there would be such a beautiful woman!"
Saint Baldora casually blasted the roaring ice dragon into pieces, and his attention was instantly focused on Esdeath.
That face, which was as beautiful as the Pirate Empress's, made Saint Baldura's breathing become heavier.
Compared to those weak and ugly untouchables, Esdeath, who has such a beautiful face and powerful strength, is simply the perfect prey!
"You think of me as prey... How interesting! Let's hunt each other! Ice barrier!"
Esdeath grinned dangerously, and stabbed the saber in her hand into the ground, and the cold air spread like a tsunami.
However, in an instant, the ground within a radius of several kilometers centered on Esdeath was completely frozen.
The pirates and soldiers of the God's Army who were still fighting each other a second ago were frozen into lifelike ice sculptures, still retaining their movements from the fierce battle. Even the bullets that had just been fired were frozen.
"Bang! Kakakakaka..."
Saint Baldora, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, shattered the ice covering his body, and countless pieces of ice fell to the ground.
But before Saint Baldora could open his mouth, he saw a blue-white figure rushing towards him at an astonishing speed.
"Armed Ice Kick!"
Before she obtained the Ice Emperor's Manifestation: Demonic Essence, Esdeath was already accustomed to close combat with the enemy. After all, she could hunt down extremely dangerous strongmen alone with her swordsmanship and physical skills!
Even after obtaining the imperial weapon, Esdeath did not give up honing her skills, not to mention that Borsalino also taught her to master the three colors of domineering that can further enhance her melee ability.
Coupled with the extremely compatible Stand User, Withered Rose, it is no exaggeration to say that even if Whitebeard were to be resurrected in his peak state, he would have to pay an extremely heavy price to take down Esdeath.
The dark military boots wrapped in armed color domineering were unstoppable, but the shocked and angry Saint Baldora still chose to punch back.
"God's shock!"
Having eaten the Impact Fruit, Saint Baldora can unleash impacts from any part of his body with a power roughly twice that of his full-strength attack.
At this time, he attacked angrily, and his fist, which was also wrapped in armed color domineering, added double the power of the impact, and the destructive power was directly tripled!
'boom! ’
Fists and feet collided, and two powerful armed color domineering collides with each other. Countless black lightning exploded, shattering the surrounding ice and even the frozen pirates and soldiers of the God's Army.
The clash between the two should have been one in which Esdeath had the upper hand, as she had the advantage in both the quality and quantity of her Armament Haki.
However, Saint Baldora's attack was accompanied by the power of the Impact Fruit, which could not be offset by Esdeath's Armament Haki.
Although it was not as dangerous as facing the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, Esdeath's body was too slender and light compared to the top warriors, so she was inevitably blown away.
"freeze!"
However, Esdeath, who was blown away by the power of the Impact Fruit of Saint Baldora, had a sly smile on her face. The kick she had just kicked was not only entangled with the Armament Haki, but also the power of the Ice Imperial Gear.
Just when Saint Baldora felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped a little, his body was gradually frozen starting from his fists.
"…An ability similar to that of the Navy's Admiral Aokiji? Damn pariah!"
Fortunately, Saint Baldora noticed the abnormality in time, and the armament domineering covering his body dispersed the frost that was about to spread. But even so, his right fist was frozen white, and the waves of tingling pain made this self-righteous Knight of God almost unable to control his anger.
"Armament Haki is released? No, it seems to be just a common shock wave, but with more concentrated power... Let's try again!"
Esdeath, who was blown away, twisted her body in mid-air and landed lightly on a protruding ice cone.
Long before she met Borsalino, Esdeath was already well-informed, having learned a lot about imperial weapons, secret techniques, alchemy, dangerous species, and even various strange abilities possessed by alien races.
Perhaps in terms of absolute strength it cannot be compared with the devil fruits in the world of pirates, but in terms of the variety of abilities it is even better.
Even someone as strong as Esdeath had suffered many setbacks in the past, and gradually developed the habit of trying things out beforehand when in doubt.
However, when a huge ice prism with a diameter of hundreds of meters fell from the sky, perhaps only Esdeath would feel that she was being tested.
"God's shock!"
Seeing a huge icicle or columnar iceberg several kilometers long coming towards him, even Saint Baldora couldn't help but twitch his eyes.
With his speed it wouldn't have been difficult for him to dodge the blow, but being forced to dodge the attack from a pariah was somewhat embarrassing.
