Chapter 491 Stronger than Whitebeard
When Maud's physique was promoted to ten stars in one fell swoop.
The world's top-level physique monsters like Kaido, Charlotte Lingling, and Barrett have lost their original advantages in front of Maud.
Coupled with the fact that Maud ate the shock fruit, and also had the ability proficiency plundered from Whitebeard...
In summary.
Just one-on-one, Maud can beat Barrett or Charlotte Lingling without pressure, it just takes some time.
so--
In order to experience the dangers brought by fierce battles and gain more useful experience from fierce battles, Maud sincerely hopes that Barrett and Charlotte Lingling can join forces to deal with him.
It's a pity that...
Even if he had a high-profile demonstration of his ability to shake the fruit that was not inferior to Whitebeard's, Barrett still had no plans to join forces with Charlotte Lingling.
In this regard, Maud is quite regretful, but he can understand Barrett's approach.
In order to surpass Roger, who has been dead for many years, the monster in front of him, who was at a loss and frantically destroyed, has determined a goal that can "complete transcendence".
That is to defeat him in an upright manner, in order to hold the title of "World's Strongest" in the palm of his hand.
How could it be possible to join forces with Charlotte Lingling.
Maud, who understood this, could only give up the idea of letting Barrett and Charlotte Lingling join forces.
His attitude has changed.
From the beginning, the mentality of using battle to become stronger has changed to the mentality of pure revenge for Sol.
"Become the strongest in the world?"
Maud paced forward, and his momentum rose steadily.
Barrett frowned and slowly stopped his laughter.
He was keenly aware of the change in Maud's momentum, but he couldn't tell what the change was.
The only thing that can be determined is that Maud's breath has become stronger.
I really didn't expect...
has reached this point,
Is there still room for improvement?
"This sense of oppression..."
Barrett stared intently at Maud, who was approaching step by step, his heart beating faster and faster.
"Sure enough, you are stronger than Roger!"
Feeling the sense of oppression from Maud, Barrett can conclude that Maud now obviously has more strength than Roger.
Even so, Barrett will not have any shyness in terms of momentum.
"I will defeat you!"
The red light in Barrett's eyes converged into pinpoints.
Devil form!
The domineering ghost energy was combined, released from his body, and quickly smudged in a cross path between his foreheads.
In the blink of an eye, his face and body were rendered dark blue by ghosts, and the whole person looked like a devil from hell.
Covering the whole body with ghost energy, Barrett's strength and speed can be significantly improved.
Swish-!
Barrett moved, so fast that his body disappeared out of thin air in an instant.
Before Maud hadn't made his next move, it was Barrett who took the initiative to attack.
With a speed that is hard to see with the naked eye, Barrett dodged to Maud's side.
It's just that no matter how fast he is, it's still not as fast as a top-level witness.
Just as Barrett showed his figure, Maud raised his hand and slashed.
The power of concussion glowing white light appeared from the blade, and cracks spread to Barrett at a very fast speed.
Barrett, however, was prepared.
This dash was just a feint shot from him.
At the moment when the force of the shock was about to reach him, his feet that had not yet completely touched the ground were stomping at a low altitude, using the technique of the moon step.
With the help of the moon step, Barrett completed the turn at the critical moment, bypassing the oncoming shock force, and came to Maud's left.
"The strongest punch!"
After creating an attacking opportunity, Barrett concentrated all his strength and domineering on this punch.
As a physique expert, you don't need any fancy moves in battle.
What is needed is a technique that can mobilize the strength of the whole body at the fastest speed, and then inflict the greatest blow to the enemy in a short time.
That's Barrett's fighting style, and that alone sets the odds for victory.
A punch wrapped in Barrett's whole body, directed at Maud's shoulder.
As long as he can hit, Barrett is confident to directly abolish this shoulder of Maud.
But how can Maud let Barrett do so.
In a situation where he couldn't close the knife, he kicked his foot and shifted a little to one side to create time for him to raise his elbows to defend against Barrett's attack.
Bang!
Barrett's strongest punch ended up hitting Maud's left elbow just in time to cross the defense.
The powerful impact that followed, burst out a circle of jellyfish-shaped white air waves that rapidly spread outward at the place where the fists and elbows met.
However--
Maud, who blocked the punch, was as motionless as a mountain, apparently unaffected.
Barrett quickly accepted the fact, and slammed his right leg up, slamming his knee into Maud's intercostal space.
If it is said, Maud's weapon is a knife.
Barrett's weapons, then, are the aggressive parts of his body.
Just as Barrett's knee-high kick came to the sky——
Maud flipped his right wrist, and in the posture of "returning the knife to the sheath", he drove the tip of the autumn water knife to stab Barrett's knee.
Above the tip of the knife, an egg-sized light ball containing the power of shock was quietly brewing.
Seeing that Maud is so handy with the shock ability, Barrett's heart froze, but at the last moment he resolutely gave up the attack, and turned to step back to open the distance.
As Barrett retreated, Maud's stab in the sheath failed.
The small ball of light condensed on the tip of the knife was not released because of the stabbing, but was steadily retracted by Morde.
It can be retracted freely, and it clearly shows the precision and control of Maud's ability to shock.
On the high wall of ice.
Compared with dealing with the Charlotte family, Aokiji is more interested in this top-level battle below.
Therefore, he handed over the task of solving the Charlotte family to the rest of the team, saying that he did not take credit for his name, and instead watched the collision between Maud and Barrett without the slightest psychological burden.
once.
He was in Mad Hatter watching the battle between Thor and Garp.
Now.
He's here to watch the battle between Maud and Barrett.
There is an indescribable subtle feeling.
but……
The green pheasant turned his eyes and looked at Maud, his eyes were full of undisguised astonishment.
"It's only been less than 20 days since I ate the shaking fruit, but my mastery of abilities has reached a level comparable to that of Whitebeard."
Watching the battle from the sidelines, I saw with my own eyes Maud's attainment of shock ability, and the result was that Aokiji was amazed.
In this bad era, there is never a shortage of genius monsters.
The green pheasants have seen a lot, and they are not surprised.
But Maude's talent really made Aochi couldn't think of any words to describe it, except marvel or amazement.
He was suddenly curious...
Maud, who just ate the Zhenzhen fruit that day, faced Cavendish and their battle process alone.
It's a pity that he was sleeping late that day, so he couldn't see the process of the battle.
Come to think of it now...
Aokiji seemed to understand Cavendish's post-war reaction that carried over to the dinner party.
"Captain, with this amazing talent, maybe from the moment you're born, you are destined to change the world..."
The green pheasant, located on the high wall of ice, stared at Maud with a slightly complicated look.
If--
After the War on the Top is over, Aokiji will regret not being able to kill Maud in the cradle in Mad Hatter.
So.
Now he'll be thankful he didn't kill Maud in the cradle in Mad Hatter.
"I will watch your figure until the moment the world is changed."
Aokiji calmed down.
Something that was once sealed by his ice finally gradually overflowed with a trace of temperature.
within the circle of battle.
Barrett pulled back, stared at Maud dignifiedly, and quickly assumed an offensive stance.
When Charlotte Lingling played against Maud, she had a real feeling like she was facing Whitebeard in her prime.
This is because the shocking ability displayed by Maud, in terms of control, is already comparable to the Whitebeard at his peak.
However.
Charlotte Lingling can be sure that Maud ate the shock fruit recently, so she was so shocked.
Aokiji was amazed, Charlotte Lingling was shocked.
As Barrett feels at the moment.
"If I didn't stop the attack in time, my knee would have been broken..."
Barrett took a deep breath.
He deeply realized that if he wanted to successfully climb the highest mountain in the world, Maude, he could not make any mistakes.
Once you make a mistake, you will have no chance of winning.
This tightrope-like battle is the embodiment of the sense of oppression that Maud brings to Barrett.
Barrett, who realized this, still had the awe-inspiring fighting spirit and was not affected.
The challenge of not allowing any mistakes can show the gold content of the world's strongest title.
Swish-!
Barrett attacks Maud again.
Even if he has deeply recognized the terrifying strength of Maud, he never thought of taking a method similar to a defensive counterattack.
This is his spirit.
It's just that Maud's offensive is faster this time.
"Shadow Country."
Maud looked ahead.
After awakening, the shadow ability instantly transformed everything around him into pitch-black waves like claws and claws, and surrounded Maud like a raging tide.
Barrett stopped abruptly, revealing his figure.
"shadow……"
He was a little surprised to look at the huge shadow waves surrounding Maud, as if it was only at this time that he remembered that Maud still has the ability of the shadow fruit after awakening.
Maud slowly pulled up Qiushui and put the back of the knife on his shoulder.
This is the starting style of hegemony.
"Shadow, expand."
After making the hegemony start gesture, Maud muttered to himself.
The voice just fell.
A large number of shadow waves under his control suddenly surged towards Barrett from the left and right sides, looking like a pair of arms that were folding, enclosing Barrett inside.
As the two shadow tides converged and gathered, Maud and Barrett were both within the black circle surrounded by shadow tides.
Because the height of the surrounding shadow tide reaches tens of meters, the camera phone bugs arranged in various hidden corners can only capture the towering dark shadow tide.
Within the Shadow Tide field, Barrett calmly glanced at the towering Shadow Tide around him.
"The ability after awakening can affect the surrounding things in a large range, but the larger the range, the weaker the power, and the same is true for domineering."
Barrett withdrew his gaze, turned to Maud, and said indifferently: "Don't you expect to be able to use such a move that blindly expands the range, which will lead to the dilution of power to hurt me?"
"You talk too much."
Maud was expressionless, and the autumn water on his shoulders sparked black and red arcs.
"Shadow Domain, Black Coffin."
Without waiting for Barrett to speak, Maud gave an order to Shadowtide.
Under his control, the surrounding towering shadow tide suddenly shrank inward at an extremely fast speed.
"Um?!"
Barrett was suddenly startled, and almost without thinking, he charged towards Maud.
Bang!
He stepped on the ground.
At the moment when the ground cracked, the figure flew towards Maud like a lightning bolt.
However.
The Shadow Tide completed the end sooner, as if a pitch-black coffin sealed Barrett in it.
As the shadow tide shrinks, the camera phone bug can record the progress of the battle in real time.
Through the live broadcast, people all over the world saw the dark coffin-like object made of shadows, and also saw Maud in an attacking posture.
"What about the Barrets?"
A question mark popped up in people's heads.
But then it was taken for granted that Barrett was most likely sealed in the black coffin.
Also at this time-
Maud outrageously struck out.
It is still the simplest, and the most capable of reflecting the destructive power of the Shock Fruit.
It's just that this time Moder incorporates the domineering moves and domineering colors into it.
The autumn water fell forward.
A white light cocoon condensed in an instant, and then a shock wave containing the power of shock burst out from the light cocoon.
In an instant, a black and red arc flashed in it.
The shock wave that broke out of the cocoon hit the black coffin that sealed Barrett.
Click, click—!
Along the way, broken pieces of light were flying all over the sky.
the next moment.
This mighty shock wave bombarded the black coffin.
In an instant, the black coffin shattered into countless pieces.
And Barrett, who was sealed in the black coffin, was blasted out directly.
Even if he was sealed with the black coffin and placed the tightest domineering defense in front of him, he would not be able to completely resist this devastating attack.
The moment when the impact force is transmitted to the body.
Barrett's mouth and nose suddenly spurted a lot of blood, his consciousness seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and he rolled his eyes uncontrollably.
Barrett, who was blasted away, slammed into the huge towering ice wall that Aokiji had condensed with the Ice Age.
Bang!
The ice wall, which was 100 meters long and tens of meters high, shattered into countless ice cubes without any resistance after bearing the impact brought by Barrett.
Aokiji, who left the ice wall one step earlier, was also shocked after seeing the destructive power.
On the other side of the ice wall, the Charlotte family and the Morde pirates moved their positions because of the battle, so they were not affected.
It was only the moment when the ice wall shattered that attracted their attention.
Then involuntarily looked at Maud, the culprit who caused this huge movement.
Also at this time-
Charlotte Lingling, who had been knocked away by the shock chop earlier, launched another sneak attack while Maud hadn't even made a gesture.
She came behind Maud and slashed at Maud with all her might.
"Be careful!"
Seeing this scene from a distance, Perona couldn't help but remind her.
It's just that even if she didn't remind her, Maud was aware of Charlotte Lingling's sneak attack.
Maud turned and punched.
Above the fist, a light ball containing the power of shock appeared.
Charlotte Lingling's pupils shrank, and she could only watch Napoleon's long knife slash on the ball of light.
Click, click...
There was no accident, as the light traces spread, Charlotte Lingling, who could not make a sneak attack, flew out again.
At this moment-
Countless eyes gathered here, as if they saw the figure of the strongest man, Whitebeard, who had returned to the world.
Do not,
wrong!
That oppressive posture is obviously stronger and more intimidating than Whitebeard.
for a while.
People all over the world felt an indescribable feeling of suffocation, as if their necks were strangled together.
