CHAPTER 158: CHAPTER 158: KARL’S NEW FORM, BREAKING THE LIMITS OF THE HUMAN BODY

Clang————!

The giant mushroom cloud did not last long and was blown away by the shockwave of a new round of clashes.

The ear-piercing sound of metal colliding reached the ears of Doflamingo and the Visual Den Den Mushi from an unknown distance.

Then, through the Visual Den Den Mushi, it spread all over the world.

A fierce wind blew away the mushroom cloud, revealing a tall and a short figure on the ground.

Charlotte Linlin, holding the emperor’s sword Napoleon, rushed in front of Karl and, with the force of a single slash that could cut a large galleon in two, swung down at him.

Facing Charlotte Linlin’s attack, Karl did not summon the Spear of Mystery to engage in a weapon duel with her.

Wrapping his small fist in a golden, flowing Haki, he blocked Charlotte Linlin’s sword.

Just like Garp’s iron fist, which was strong enough to withstand the twelve Supreme Grade Swords, Karl’s fist, after completing his third evolution and being wrapped in ultimate Armament Haki, could also withstand the sharpest famous swords in the world.

Perhaps because she was using a weapon, or because she was holding the sword with both hands.

This time, the clash between the fist and the emperor’s sword did not knock Charlotte Linlin back.

The two were in the same stalemate as at the beginning.

"Prometheus, Zeus..."

"Yes, Mama!"

Seizing this moment of stalemate, a cruel smile appeared on Charlotte Linlin’s face.

The anthropomorphic sun and thundercloud above her head responded loudly, then released golden flames and purple lightning at Karl.

"That’s too despicable! To actually create such strange things to gang up on Lord Dragon Knight!"

"Isn’t this supposed to be a one-on-one fight?"

"Lord Dragon Knight is at too much of a disadvantage. He should have left the Blue-Eyes White Dragon behind."

"...You idiots, if you don’t know, don’t talk. The legendary treasures of the sea are part of an individual’s power."

".........."

Seeing this, some of the Dragon Knight fan club members who had come back to their senses said indignantly.

Some people who were knowledgeable, or who considered themselves knowledgeable, began to explain.

Facing the attacks of the two great Homies, Karl chose to leap back and dodge.

Boom!

Zzzzz...

Looking at the ground being bombarded by flames and purple lightning, Karl also began to use his Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.

But he did not transform into a mage who controlled lightning, but into a warrior whose whole body was covered in blue-white electric currents.

Whoosh—

The knight’s armor on Karl’s body seemed to have turned into lightning armor, with countless electric arcs coiling around his body, flashing continuously.

The next second, Karl stomped his feet on the ground, shattering it, and transformed into a blue-white meteor, shooting towards Charlotte Linlin.

"Prometheus."

"Yes, Mama!"

Looking at Karl, who was not using electric field teleportation but Lightning Teleport.

Charlotte Linlin called out softly, and Prometheus immediately possessed her.

In an instant, Charlotte Linlin’s hair turned into long, golden flames, and an anthropomorphic flame face appeared on her head.

Swish————Rip!

Locking onto Karl’s body with her Observation Haki, Charlotte Linlin covered the emperor’s sword Napoleon, which was also configured with her soul, with sun-like golden flames and swung a giant flame slash at the shooting blue-white meteor.

Karl still had no intention of dodging with teleportation and continued to charge straight ahead with Lightning Teleport.

But his right hand, covered in a layer of blue-white electric current, while in a state of high-speed movement, swung a hand chop at the oncoming giant flame slash.

Like an indestructible lightning blade, Karl’s hand chop actually tore the flame slash apart.

There was no stalemate between the two, and Karl’s figure did not pause in the slightest.

No one knew what kind of terrifying power was contained in that ordinary hand chop.

After the brief, pinnacle-level duel with Garp, Karl was very envious of Garp’s Life Return, which could break the limits of the human body.

It was just a pity that Absolute Comprehension had not helped him steal this ability.

Although Karl’s As Big or Small as I Please could also break the limits of the human body by growing larger.

But Karl was not satisfied; he wanted to be able to break the limits of the human body while maintaining his normal form.

Therefore...

During Karl’s several months of closed-door training, besides adapting to the various forms of As Big or Small as I Please, he was also working on a method for this.

And as a result of a transmigrator’s brainstorming, Karl had actually come up with such a method.

That was to use the Rumble-Rumble Fruit—the electric current method!

When a Logia user was attacked, their body would automatically elementalize, and the user could not control this passive-like ability.

Even when the user attacked with their ability, the elementalization would automatically defend.

But after using Life Return, a Logia user could freely control their elementalization.

So, in these few months, Karl had fused Life Return and the electric current method to create a new combat form.

That was to temporarily sacrifice the most powerful elementalization of a Logia user, use Life Return to expose his physical body 100%, and use Life Return to control the electric current to stimulate his cells, allowing his strength, which could already reach 100% at will, to surpass the limits of the human body.

The inspiration for this form came from the world of Naruto—the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

That hand chop of Karl’s was like the Fourth Raikage’s Liger Bomb, which shattered Susanoo.

He concentrated his monstrous strength exceeding 100%, lightning, and Armament Haki in his hand, and instantly split open whatever he wanted to split.

The power was so great that even Charlotte Linlin’s giant flame slash, covered in the power of the sun, was as fragile as a thin piece of paper.

This was the power of Karl’s Rumble-Rumble Fruit combat form.

At the same time, by developing this new form, Karl had unlocked a new ultimate move.

After tearing apart the giant flame slash with a hand chop, Karl used Lightning Teleport to appear in front of Charlotte Linlin.

With a leap, Karl, using Razor, flew in front of Charlotte Linlin like a curved bolt of lightning.

Under the wide-eyed gazes of Charlotte Linlin and her two great Homies, Karl once again smashed his fist into her face.

Boom————!

With a loud bang, Charlotte Linlin’s head tilted slightly, her eyes filled with ferocity turned slightly white, and a stream of fresh blood spurted from her mouth.

Immediately after, her huge, mountain-like body was once again sent flying backwards.

This time, the speed at which she was sent flying was like an arrow piercing the sky, and she flew back several hundred meters.

Wherever she passed, whether it was the rocks protruding from the cracked ground, the naturally formed rocky mountains, or the trees outside the barren area, they were all shattered and crushed by Charlotte Linlin’s huge body.
