Shelling, rain, tsunami—there was nowhere to escape.
Red-haired, pirates, sampans, drifting everywhere.
The indiscriminate rain, like knives, was enough to keep these cadres busy, so they all activated their full-body armor to defend against the rain-soaked blades.
This thing isn't normal rain, nor is it a normal attack.
Ben Beckman could feel the extreme spinning and crushing power of falling raindrops, and...
"Don't get hurt! If you're already injured, don't let the raindrops fall on your wounds!" he reminded them.
He had a premonition that if he couldn't withstand the raindrops and they fell on his body, causing wounds, it wouldn't be as simple as just being cut.
Kuro chuckled from above, "My premonition was right, but this is the only way you can bear it."
Azure Dragon Rain is a relatively powerful move in the 'Psychic Blade' because each drop of rain is mixed with the Azure Dragon's secret technique. It can be said to be a large AOE version of 'Azure Dragon'. The power of a single raindrop is not as great as 'Azure Dragon', but it has the advantage of quantity. After all, it is raining raindrops. Once they seep in, they will become mincemeat!
Based on Kuro's assessment, these people's physical attributes are not as monstrous as Kaido's and his crew; they are at a mid-level. Their only strength lies in their mastery of Haki.
The Red-Haired Pirates are the only Yonko crew known for their Haki power. They operate on a semi-elite basis, with each crew member being world-renowned. Even a lowly henchman has a bounty of tens of millions, making them the most balanced pirate crew.
However, balance means there is no outstanding point, which means it is useless.
Kuro's wide-area AOE attack disrupts this 'balance'.
Because his combat power has surpassed that of many members of the Red-Haired Pirates.
Not everyone can withstand that laser cannon, and this rain is just testing their domineering spirit.
With no footholds around, only a few small sampans, Shanks had to watch out for the occasional tsunamis and whirlpools, as well as resist the rain. He had no time to worry about anything else. Ben Beckman also had the same ability, but he was held back like Shanks. As for the rest of them, they were just managing to withstand the rain with their Haki.
Kuro has never felt so at ease. Of the Four Emperors, fighting any one of them is extremely dangerous, but he is now incredibly safe when facing Shanks.
Because this guy can't fly!
Air-to-ground confrontation—that's how arrogant and shameless they are.
"It's fully charged."
After a brief stalemate, Kuro looked up at the laser cannon that was about to finish charging, a smile playing on his lips. "Fine, then take another one..."
boom!
Before the word "cannon" could even be uttered, Shanks' eyes suddenly widened, and the dark clouds that Kuro had just dispersed with his ability reappeared, with Conqueror's Haki sweeping out once more, transforming into a dark, malevolent wind that enveloped Kuro and the ship above.
This time, the Conqueror's Haki is exceptionally fierce!
Even Kuro himself was momentarily stunned and frozen in place by this Conqueror's Haki.
The presence of the Jinni's navy has diminished further, and the navy soldiers he brought with him have probably been completely wiped out, all of them unconscious.
As they fainted, the laser cannon, which was about to finish charging, shut down abruptly.
This thing still needs to be operated by people; it can't be controlled if there aren't enough people.
On the Golden Lion, Sazel and Fanny were trembling, Kikyo was frowning, Crow looked grave, Moore seemed unchanged, and Lida was shouting down, "Crow, everyone's unconscious!"
"knew..."
Kuro responded and looked down. "You're quite clever."
Shanks laughed, "If you keep firing that troublesome laser cannon, my crew will probably be wiped out."
"Isn't it pretty much the same now?"
Kuro raised his finger, causing the Golden Lion and himself to ascend further into the air. "You can't escape now!"
There was no place to land, no boats, and all around was the sea.
Did they jump into the sea?
That would be perfect for Kuro going into the sea; he would be much easier to deal with in the sea than he is now standing on a sampan.
No one can escape his 'Sea Roll Earth Spirit', not even Rayleigh.
Kuro laughed and said, "Look at this, because of your wrong decision, countless crew members have died or been injured. You are an incompetent captain."
Shanks laughed heartily: "The sea is never safe. I am the captain, not a babysitter. Pirates live on the edge."
The navy and pirates die almost every day, and that's how it's always been. What he said isn't wrong.
"Besides, I never said I would let you do whatever you want with me forever!"
Shanks raised his rapier, Griffin, his pupils contracting as the powerful Conqueror's Haki that had affected the heavens shrank into the blade of the rapier.
He swung his sword upwards and solemnly declared, "God, dodge!"
Kuro's eyes snapped open, and he instinctively raised Shusui, slicing two fingers across the blade, unleashing a burst of golden light. "Mumei Shinpu Ryuu Ou-jutsu: Genbu!"
A thick tortoise shell enveloped Kuro's figure and the Golden Lion above him, forming a semi-circular shield in the air. A snake coiled on the tortoise shell shield, its eyes staring directly at Shanks and the others, causing everyone except Shanks and Ben Beckman to freeze.
"not good!"
Ben Beckman gritted his teeth, raised his gun, aimed at the snake's head, and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The lead bullet's speed increased significantly, carrying a powerful and domineering force. It pierced the snake's head with a single shot, shattering it like glass.
The Overlord's Haki Entanglement...
