Chapter 555 What kind of king do you want to become?

The slash continued to spread, forcing Sanji and Zoro back. Zoro's three swords got stuck on the slash, sparks flying. As he slashed down with force, the blades cut through the slash, carrying his body, and he fell heavily to the ground.

The moment he landed, he swung his sword wildly three times, unleashing a barrage of slashes.

"Walking in the air!"

Sanji, on the other hand, pushed off with both feet, flying away from the slash, and then kicked off again in mid-air to change direction, heading towards Clow.

Kuro swung his sword, shattering Zoro's attack.

"Moonwalk is moonwalk, what's this about walking in the air?"

He was chewing on a cigar when he slashed at Sanji with his sword.

As if Sanji had anticipated this, his kick suddenly changed, one foot landing on the back of Shusui's sword, while the other foot ignited flames and kicked straight at the opponent's neck.

"Neck Flesh Crushing Strike!"

Kuro frowned, tilted his head back, and with a twist of his grip on the blade, slashed at Sanji's foot.

In that instant, Sanji jumped up, changing his leg movements from a side kick to an upward kick.

"First meat Shoot!"

Miss Nami, Miss Robin, do you see this? My heroic figure!

Sanji smiled confidently, one could imagine that his kick would bring smiles to Nami and Robin's faces.

Bang!!

Just then, a fist struck him hard in the abdomen, making his mouth open and almost causing him to gag.

Kuro flashed forward and punched Sanji directly, sending him crashing to the ground like a cannonball.

He shook his hand and said coldly, "Why do you always aim at my face?"

"Kuro!"

At that moment, Lida suddenly spoke up.

"Rubber, rubber..."

Luffy's massive fist gradually retracted into his arm, and his legs also retracted, exhaling air as he appeared in front of Kuro with incredible speed. His spring-like fist shot out rapidly.

"Ape King Spear!"

Luffy appeared just as Kuro punched Sanji away; there was no pause in between. As soon as Sanji's body left Kuro's sight, Luffy's fist came straight out.

"Too slow."

Kuro didn't even look, and slashed at him with his sword.

Bang!!

As the sword clashed with his fist, a burst of energy rippled out. Kuro's body dodged to the side, and the blade slid across Luffy's arm, creating a spark, before heading straight for Luffy's chest and striking him squarely.

Bang!!!

The immense force sent Luffy plummeting downwards, then crashing into the ground, cracking it, before bouncing back up.

The domineering aura emanating from his chest gradually faded.

Kuro glanced down at Luffy, then suddenly vanished into thin air.

Luffy was startled and sprang to his feet, flying away from where he stood.

Kuro appeared behind him, his Shusui ready to strike.

"Observation Haki?"

Kuro stood there, his body gradually fading away.

A black light had already appeared in the direction Luffy fled.

Bang!!

The blade fell, striking Luffy's chest hard and pinning him to the ground.

Kuro appeared in front of Luffy and smiled, "Not bad."

Luffy, inside the pit, had already been covered in Armament Haki on his chest, which blocked Shusui's slash.

Even after Qiu Shui slashed down, the elasticity caused it to bounce upwards slightly.

"Under the Haki, the rubber's power remains, and it's full of elasticity. So, no matter what attack it is, it will be deflected?" Kuro narrowed his eyes.

This kid... has the potential to be a steel balloon.

"Giant Serpent Cannon!"

Luffy clenched his fist into his arm, and then threw a punch.

Kuro dodged the punch by tilting his head, and when he turned around, he saw the outstretched fist suddenly bend in the air and head straight for the back of Kuro's head.

Kuro applied Armament Haki to his left hand and threw a punch backward, directly at Luffy's fist.

Bang!

Luffy's fist was deflected, and in that instant, he changed direction again, charging towards Kuro from the side.

Kuro flashed away from Luffy.

"If you're fast enough, I'll use this trick to catch you!"

Luffy sprang up from the ground, his other hand shooting out as well, shouting, "Gum-Gum!"

His arms stretched out, constantly lengthening and changing, chasing after Kuro who had just appeared not far away.

"Demon Wind Kick - Crushing!"

Just then, Sanji attacked from Kuro's side, spinning in the air before delivering a backflip kick straight to Kuro's head.

"Three-Sword Style: Ox Needle!"

Zoro charged in from the other side, his twin swords thrusting out like bull horns, the blades striking fiercely in that instant.

when!

Bang!

Kuro frowned. This time, he couldn't dodge. The two of them used their hands to block Zoro's attack with their Shusui, and their other hands also swept up, filled with Haki, to block Sanji's foot.

The heavy attack also caused the ground beneath Kuro's feet to crack, sending up flying gravel.

"Stop playing these petty tricks." Kuro's voice was tinged with impatience.

He used his strength to push the two bodies away, and just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly paused and looked down.

My feet were somehow entangled in some vines.

"Hey!" Usopp grinned from a short distance away. "Why would I let you move!"

"Dual-Handed Serpent Cannon!"

At that moment, Luffy's fists came straight at him.

Bang!!

A fist imbued with Armament Haki struck Kuro squarely in the cheek. The immense force caused Kuro's body to involuntarily lift upwards, his head tilting back, and his cigar falling from his mouth and crashing to the ground.

"Nice!"
