CHAPTER 294: CHAPTER 294: REINER VS. FUJITORA

Chapter 294: Reiner vs. Fujitora

After Fujitora moved the battlefield to the royal palace, the fighting ring was scattered in pieces, and all the contestants in the chaotic battle were separated.

Ryokugyu’s massive body was quickly found by Ace again.

"You bastard! Why are you only targeting me!"

Looking at the flame-wreathed Ace floating in the air, Ryokugyu’s face looked as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

After a brief exchange, he could feel that the difference in strength between the two of them was not very large.

But the other could conjure a sky full of flames with a wave of his hand, completely countering him.

Although the Forest-Forest Fruit was a Logia, it did not have the fluidity of other elements. He had a physical body after elementalizing.

"And it had to be the flame that counters trees the most."

Ryokugyu gritted his teeth. A large number of thick vines with sharp ends grew from the ground and shot out, surrounding Ace from all directions.

"Killing Thorn Prison!"

"It can’t be helped. Just consider yourself unlucky."

Ace grinned. His hands rested at his waist, his two fingers together, forming a gun. "It’s just as well. We can fight all out in a new place."

"Fire Gun!!"

Pew, pew, pew—!

Two violent tongues of fire burst from Ace’s fingertips. A large number of fire bullets poured out, and one after another, the thorny vines were broken and fell.

There were indeed too many people in the arena just now. Many of his moves were wide-area attacks. This was also the reason he let Fujitora make a move.

Otherwise, he was afraid he would have hurt many innocent people.

Ace landed with one hand on the ground, and fierce flames instantly erupted from his palm.

"Dai Enkai!" (Great Flame Commandment!)

The surrounding earth was instantly ignited, and a sea of fire rapidly spread towards Ryokugyu.

"Firebreak Forest!!"

Ryokugyu’s thick arms plunged into the ground. His root system extended for a distance, and then, as if expanding, rows of large trees grew rapidly.

A wall of forest was formed, isolating the fierce flames.

As the battle between the two resumed, battles in other places also broke out one after another.

At the same time, the host of Marine officers led by Fujitora arrived, all stepping on giant rocks he controlled.

Ryokugyu, as if seeing a saving star, hurriedly shouted at the sky, "Hurry and help me, Issho! Let’s deal with Ace first! Otherwise, I won’t be able to hold on!"

Hearing the cry for help, Fujitora also looked down.

He had originally planned to go straight for the royal palace, but Ace’s ability was indeed very tricky for Aramaki. If he didn’t go to help, he might be in danger.

After a moment’s hesitation, Fujitora still jumped down.

"Hey, hey, hey, don’t you think you’re overestimating me?"

Ace laughed helplessly. He couldn’t handle two Admirals at once.

Fortunately, the moment Fujitora landed, an opponent immediately came for him.

"Yo, long time no see!"

Reiner flew in at a low altitude, dragging his battle-axe as he swung it down!

"That voice... Black Snake Reiner?"

Clang!!

Fujitora immediately raised his sword to parry. The immense force made the blade tremble and hum. He said lightly with his eyes closed, "I’ve been regretting not being able to arrest you on the Sabaody Archipelago."

"Then you have another chance today. If you can do it, give it a try!" Reiner grinned, gripped the axe handle with both hands, and pressed down with force.

Clang!

Fujitora deflected the blade and leaped lightly backward to dissipate the force, his feet scraping along the ground for dozens of meters before he barely managed to steady himself.

At the same time, his Supreme Grade Sword, [Gokudo Kosen], was quickly covered in a purple halo of gravity.

Fujitora spread his legs, his body sinking and leaning slightly forward. With a mighty exertion of force, his entire person shot out like a cannonball.

"Juryoku-tō: Mōko!" (Gravity Blade: Raging Tiger!)

Fujitora charged up and swung his sword horizontally. The gravity stored in the sword was released forward, and the entire space, including Reiner, was distorted by it.

The range of the Gravity Blade was very large; there was basically no way to dodge it. Reiner’s eyes hardened, and a thick, inky Armament Haki directly covered his entire body!

Boom!!!

With him as the center, a terrifying gravitational energy suddenly erupted. The entire ground completely collapsed and shattered.

Reiner was also sent flying extremely far, crashing through a high wall and into a large, open-air courtyard.

"Going all out from the start, huh?"

A powerful impact broke through the ruins. Reiner brushed the dust from his chest and walked out of the thick smoke, a corner of his mouth lifting into a sneer. "Suits me just fine, you damn blind man!"

Zing!!

Before he could make a move, a ferocious flying slash tore through the earth and rushed towards him!

Dragging his giant axe, Reiner took a step forward. He swung the axe blade up from below and blasted the slash apart.

Fujitora’s figure followed closely behind, appearing above him in the blink of an eye. He held his sword in a reverse grip and swung his arm down.

Clang!

Reiner quickly raised his battle-axe to block. A powerful gravity was instantly transmitted from the other’s sword!

Bang!!

The ground beneath his feet couldn’t bear the load and was shattered.

Reiner’s body sank, and his feet plunged directly into it. The veins on his left arm bulged as he clenched his fist and punched out fiercely!

"Annihilating Rush Fist: Pierce!!"

Black lightning exploded on his fist. The blow, wreathed in Conqueror’s Haki, solidly smashed into Fujitora’s abdomen.

The impact of the projected Haki pierced his body, and the technique of internal destruction ravaged and destroyed him from within.

"Puwaah!"

The intense pain made Fujitora’s face contort. He spat out a large mouthful of blood, his body bent like a shrimp as he flew through space like a purple comet and smashed into a wall.

The Ouroboros Ring hovered behind Reiner’s shoulder. Fire and lightning gushed out from the two tomoe drums at full power.

"Thunderflame Bite!!"

Reiner raised his hand and let out an explosive roar. Two ferocious, large serpents of red and blue frantically coiled and gave chase!

Boom!!

With a loud bang, a terrifying energy explosion engulfed Fujitora. A dazzling light of fire and electricity illuminated half the sky.

"What powerful Haki..."

In the explosion, Fujitora’s brow furrowed tightly, secretly shocked.

How much time had passed? The other’s Haki was a notch stronger than it had been on the Sabaody Archipelago.

He held the hilt in a reverse grip, drew his sword, and swung. A chaotic airflow blew away the surrounding fierce flames.

Fujitora’s figure emerged from it, looking pathetic. His body had several visible, torn wounds that were still emitting wisps of white smoke, yet his face remained resolute.

His "Justice" coat fluttered. He stood opposite Reiner, several dozen meters away, a fighting spirit in both their eyes.

The undecided victory from last time would be settled here!

Swoosh!

The two of them moved at the same time. Reiner leaped high into the air, his giant axe, wrapped in the power of tremors, chopping down brutally.

Fujitora’s eyes hardened. His gravity-wreathed cane sword swung out fiercely!

Clang!!

The sword and axe clashed powerfully, sending a shower of fierce sparks.

The next moment.

Boom!!

Two streams of energy containing terrifying power suddenly erupted, and a violent impact swept out from the two of them as the center!

Veins popped on Reiner’s entire body. The air around him seemed to freeze, pressing down on him from all directions as if to crush him into a meat patty.

Fujitora, on the other hand, was not faring much better.

The atmosphere before him shattered like a mirror. Scarlet blood flowed from between his gritted teeth. His five viscera and six bowels felt as if they were about to be shattered by the tremors.

Knowing he was about to be unable to hold on, Fujitora gritted his teeth and was the first to change his move. The gravity squeezing Reiner’s body suddenly all moved downwards!

"Jigoku Tabi!!" (Hell’s Journey!!)

Bang!!

The sudden increase in gravity made him feel as if he were carrying a mountain on his back.

The ground beneath his feet instantly collapsed into a bottomless pit, and Reiner’s body fell uncontrollably!

And Fujitora was sent flying by the now-unbalanced force of the tremor!

His chest caved in three inches, and the broken ribs pierced his internal organs. He couldn’t help but spit out blood while still in the air!

Bang!

His body slammed heavily onto the ground and rolled a few times before barely coming to a stop. Fujitora propped himself up with his elbow and gritted his teeth as he stood up.

He knew that this level of attack was far from enough to defeat the other. He immediately drew his sword and shot a purple light ring towards the sky.

In the bottomless pit, Reiner landed heavily on his back. He shook his head and got up.

"Where the hell did you send me?"

Looking up at the sky, which was now just a small dot, Reiner spat out a mouthful of blood and then squatted down, his leg muscles tensing tightly.

Bang!!

Countless rubble shot out from the ground. His figure instantly disappeared from the spot, transforming into a streak of light and flying straight up.

Just as he was about to jump out of the bottomless abyss, he saw a bright red light descending from the sky above.

Reiner’s eyes widened in shock. The burning meteor tore through the air, creating sonic booms, and was already right in his face!

Boom!!!

The world-destroying meteor crashed into Reiner, once again smashing him into the surface of the earth!

In an instant, the entire high ground shook violently.

This columnar peak, which rose from the earth and supported the royal palace, was directly collapsed by the meteor.

The earth where the meteor had landed turned to magma, emitting a scorching red glow as wisps of white smoke rose up.

In the rising steam, a humanoid silhouette could be vaguely seen slowly walking out.

"To still be alive after taking a meteor head-on... he’s just like a monster."

Fujitora panted heavily, unable to help but be shocked by Reiner’s physical toughness.

Although, to avoid affecting the town below the high ground, the power of this meteor was relatively small...

...he had never imagined that the other’s physical body would be so strong.

Reiner dragged his battered body out of the ruins. Some of the smaller wounds were even healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He knew the power of this meteor was much smaller than the one on the Sabaody Archipelago, and he also understood the other’s concerns.

Reiner did not jump onto the high ground, but instead raised his battle-axe and pointed to the boundless plains to the north, saying teasingly, "Let’s go over there."

Dressrosa, with the high ground where the royal palace was built as its center, was divided in two by a giant city wall.

The towns were all concentrated on the southern peninsula. The northern peninsula had only a few villages scattered in the southern part, and further north was all uninhabited forest and plains.

"It seems this old one was not enough to satisfy you."

Fujitora’s tone was low. He immediately understood Reiner’s meaning.

Since the other had taken the initiative to avoid the populace, it suited him just fine. He drew his sword, cut out a piece of rock, and jumped on.

Reiner sneered contemptuously, summoned his falcon, and stepped on, flying towards the north.

At the same time.

Inside the SMILE factory hidden in a certain forest in the north, the guarding soldiers were supervising the Tontatta people’s work as usual.

Boom!!

Suddenly, a violent explosion sounded, and the thick steel main gate was brutally blasted in.

"What’s going on!"

"Who is it?!"

All the soldiers whipped their heads around and saw two graceful figures standing at the door. Behind them floated a large swarm of beetles and wasps, all of them carrying Tontatta warriors on their backs.

"It’s the Tontatta tribe!"

"Enemy attack!!"

"Quick, go and inform Lady Monet and Queen-sama!"

The panicked soldiers reacted and immediately sounded the alarm. The factory’s alarm blared.

"Reiner and the others have already started fighting. We need to hurry!" Nami urged, her body transforming into lightning and being the first to fly up!

Leo held his sewing needle high and shouted, "Flight unit! Charge!!"

"Charge!!"

"Rescue the princess and our compatriots!"

With the command, all the warriors of the Tontatta tribe launched their charge!

"Captain Leo?!"

Seeing Leo and the others, the enslaved Tontatta people were stunned for a moment, then reacted and all rose up to attack the soldiers around them.

The sound of the alarm, the explosions from the battle, and the wails were incessant. For a moment, the entire factory was in chaos.

"You bastards! How dare you come here to die!"

A fat woman with twin pigtails rushed out angrily, activating the vacuum cleaner in her hand and aiming it at the rioting Tontatta people.

"Vacuum Cleaner!!"

"It’s Queen!"

"Be careful!"

Under the powerful suction, the light Tontatta warriors were easily made to lose control of their bodies.

"Dos Fleur."

Robin smiled faintly and activated her ability with her hands crossed in front of her.

Two arms grew from Queen’s body, and with a casual press of a button, the vacuum cleaner was turned off.

"Who turned off my vacuum cleaner!" Queen roared in anger.

"You stinky woman! Was it your doing! How dare you..."

"High-Class Sewing: Nui Nui Stitch!" Leo shouted, leaped high with his sewing needle in hand.

At a speed invisible to the naked eye, he circled around Queen a few times, using his ability to sew her tightly to the ground, and also stitched up her chattering mouth.

And at this moment.

White snow suddenly began to fall from the ceiling, and the temperature in the air dropped abruptly.

"Snow?"

Robin’s brow furrowed slightly as she looked up.

A woman with a fine figure and a gentle face, with green hair, hovered in the air, with wings and claws like a bird.

"Nico Robin?"

Also discovering Robin below, Monet gritted her teeth, and a ruthless glint immediately flashed in her originally calm eyes.

After Doflamingo’s death, the belief in revenge that had supported her until now erupted completely!

"Tabi Yuki: Hada-tō!"

Turning the feathers on her wings into blades of ice and snow, Monet flapped her wings angrily and dived down at high speed!

"Tres Fleur: Clutch!"

Robin crossed her hands in front of her chest. As long as her eyes could see, her ability could be activated anywhere at any time.

Three arms grew directly from the other’s shoulder and back, hooking onto Monet’s neck and wings and twisting with force!

Pfft!!

Robin’s eyes suddenly widened in shock. The other’s body had suddenly turned into white snow and dispersed.

"A Logia-type?!"

Monet landed and merged into the accumulated snow, making it difficult for her opponent to track her. She controlled the snow on the ground to roll up and surround Robin.

"Mannen Yuki!"

The blizzard condensed into a ferocious image with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. Monet, transformed into a snow woman, bit down at Robin’s neck from behind!

"Thunderbolt Tempo!!"

Boom!!

A bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the snow woman on the back and shattering her. The contained terrifyingly high temperature instantly melted all the accumulated snow.

Monet clutched her shoulder and let out a muffled grunt. Under the pain, she retreated from the white snow and reverted to her original form.

Looking back, the one who had attacked her was none other than Nami, flying in the air, her palm still sizzling with electric light.

Lightning coiled around the Clima-Tact, forming a scorching hot thunder blade. With a flash of blue light, Nami instantly appeared before Monet.

"Yuki-gaki!" (Snow Fence!)

The accumulated snow rolled up and was about to condense into a defensive wall, but Nami’s speed was simply too fast.

Before the snow wall could fully form, the high-temperature thunder blade had already torn through Monet’s skin.

Schlick!

The flying white snow was dyed red. Monet looked at the blood spurting in the air, a hint of despair in her hollow pupils.

Completely...

...unbeatable.

"Two Hundred Million Volts!"

Nami’s face was calm. Her palm completely transformed into flashing electric light and pushed towards Monet.

"El Thor!!"

Boom!!

A giant beam of blue light shot out from her palm, instantly engulfing Monet’s entire body.
