Chapter Seventy-Three: The Strongest Man and Vigilance
Between abilities, there is a distinction between priorities and superiors and subordinates.
In terms of control, the Shadow Fruit has a higher priority than the Piao Fruit.
When Maud intervened in the shadow of the island with her powers, the golden lion sensed that something was wrong.
Apparently he did not lose control of the island, but ......
The golden lion could only watch the island fall towards the harbor, and there was nothing he could do.
Such an intuitive feeling, it was like he obviously hugged a basketball with all his might, and then Maude came to him, and in front of him, he directly stretched out his hands and violently snatched the basketball over.
The referee didn't blow the whistle at all, allowing Maud to snatch the basketball, and then poured the basketball into the basket as if he were showing off.
It's also too uncomfortable!
The golden lion's face was so gloomy that it seemed to be dripping water.
Before that, he was mentally prepared for a fierce battle with the top combat forces of the navy.
But he didn't expect that he would suffer in the hands of Maude first.
The island, which was enough to fill the entire harbor, obeyed Maud's thoughts, and continued to press towards the Whitebeard Pirates on the ice of the harbor.
“!!!”
In the face of this unimaginable oppressive force, most of the crew members under the command of the Whitebeard Pirates were inevitably beating faster at this moment.
Whitebeard's fists floated in a circle of light.
Due to physical reasons, now, when he uses the Shock Fruit, he will suppress the power as much as possible.
Only in this way can this seriously ill old body last longer.
But in this case, you can only do it with all your might, even if it may cause a great burden on your body......
The concussive force was compressed into Whitebeard's fist.
The muscles in the chest and even in the arms were more than half as large as balloons, and the green tendons were like small snakes, clinging to the exposed skin.
"Just an island......"
Whitebeard slammed his fist into the air.
The concussive power exerted with all his strength was transmitted through his fist and released in one go.
Click-
With a piercing sound, as far as the eye could see, countless light marks suddenly cracked, and they were "imprinted" on the bottom of the island with lightning speed.
In an instant, streaks of light vanished into thin air, replaced by huge cracks that spread across the bottom of the island.
As the rift widened, countless pieces of sand and gravel detached from the bottom of the island, like an overwhelming swarm of locusts, flying straight to the ground.
In this way, under the violent expansion of the rift, the entire island disintegrated at a seemingly slow, but in fact very fast.
"Boom ——!"
During this period, the loud sound of spring thunder echoed in the sky over the entire Marin Vando.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by this scene.
I saw the island disintegrate into more than a dozen rock masses of different volumes, and smashed down on the ice in the harbor.
The ice, which was more than 20 meters thick, could not resist the impact of the fall, and it cracked and sank into the water with a loud rumbling sound.
The rocks of the island, which had destroyed the ice, crashed into the sea.
The powerful squeezing force set off huge waves gushing out from the cracks in the rocks.
Moments later, as the fragmented fragments of the island hit the deepest plate of the harbor, the entire Marinfando shook violently.
"Unexpectedly...... Shattered the island?"
Countless Dao Dao's eyes looking into the harbor were filled with indescribable shock.
That's what it is...... The strongest man in the world.
On the execution table.
Karp and Sengoku silently looked at the harbor filled with the wreckage of the island.
"Oh no......"
The red light in Karp's eyes flickered as he looked at the smoke and dust that covered the sky.
Seeing and hearing the color perception, the breath of the Whitebeard Pirates is still there.
In other words, Whitebeard not only smashed an island just now, but also ensured the safety of the crew.
The disintegrated island fell into the harbor and not only smashed the wall, but also became a foothold for the Whitebeard Pirates.
Plus the golden lion strength in the sky......
Sengoku rubbed his brows, only to feel that the situation had suddenly become quite tricky.
The enclosure wall was smashed by the wreckage of the huge island body, and the Seven Martial Seas and the Navy, which were originally on the top of the enclosure wall, and even the corpse of Little Oz, retreated to the square in time to avoid annihilation.
"U-woo...... This power is no longer something that can be simply described by the word monster! ”
Doflamingo's gaze pierced through the smoke and fell straight on Whitebeard, his tone full of surprise.
The surrounding Seven Martial Seas and the navies also looked at the scene in the harbor in shock or amazement.
Nearby, while everyone was paying close attention to the situation in the harbor, Maude quietly withdrew from everyone's sight.
"Is this really what a seriously ill body can do......
Maud muttered to herself.
"It's just a fighter among monsters, Whitebeard ......"
The pain that came from all over her body made Maude feel a little emotional.
Wounds appeared on the chest, back, abdomen, thighs, and other areas that looked like they had been cut with a razor blade.
Blood slowly seeped out of it, and after a while, it soaked the underwear.
"Fortunately, the shadow was taken back in time, otherwise it would ......"
Maud looked down at the cloak that was gradually revealing its blood.
In this world, there is no absolutely perfect Devil Fruit ability, and there is no invincible Devil Fruit ability.
They will have advantages and disadvantages.
And the Shadow Fruit is no exception.
Even if Maud developed the Shadow Fruit in many ways, it still couldn't overcome some of the inherent weaknesses.
For example, salt can force out the shadow in the body of a zombie.
Now, for example, in order to seize control of the island, Maud has injected all her shadow into the shadow of the island.
Under this premise, when Whitebeard shatters the entire island, it is equivalent to shattering the shadow of the island.
And Maude's shadow and the island shadow are assimilation.
Therefore, when the shadow of the island cracks into countless rifts, as long as Maud does not remove his shadow from the shadow of the island in time, these rifts will also cause damage to Maude's shadow.
Just now, Maud was a step too late to drain away the shadow, so that while Whitebeard shattered the island, it also caused dozens of rifts to his shadow.
And when Shadow returns, Shadow's injuries are fed back directly to Maude.
This was also a result that Maud did not expect.
After all, he didn't expect that Whitebeard, who was old and seriously ill, could burst out with such terrifying power and shatter an island in an instant.
Moreover, since he had eaten the Shadow Fruit, he had never suffered a loss in this regard, so naturally he was not aware of the risks involved.
"It seems that in the future, you can't easily get all the shadows out of the stud......"
Maud thought to herself.
Although he didn't succeed in using the island group to destroy the Whitebeard Pirates, he was able to harvest a few major experiences.
However, it is also a result to be thankful to be able to exchange dozens of slender wounds for a wake-up call that may be life-threatening in the future.
The commotion in the harbor gradually subsided.
Passenger ship of the Moby Dick.
Whitebeard, who had just shocked countless people, was clutching his chest and half-kneeling on the deck at this time.
In front of him was a large pool of blood that had just been spit out.
"Daddy!!"
The crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, who used their own means to strangle the aftermath outside the side ship, all had a drastic change in their expressions when they saw Whitebeard vomiting blood.
, who is known as the strongest man in the world, finally fell before birth, old age, sickness and death......
