The Void Killer ignores defense. To counter it, one must either have strong recovery ability, possess a higher level of Haki than the Void Killer, or have a unique ability to block it.
With the addition of the "Empty Kill" technique, which concentrates the domain into a single strike, the chaotic slashes would have turned anyone else to ashes long ago. There would be no smooth cuts, only a severed head.
Only someone of Charlotte Linlin's caliber would receive such treatment.
Kuro extended his right hand and said to Lida, "Lida, give me a hand."
"Oh, oh..."
Lida nodded, somewhat bewildered, seemingly not yet having grasped the situation. She instinctively walked over and used her ability to give Kuro a boost of energy, making him feel a little better.
Click click...
Kuro twisted his neck, his body floated up, and he hovered on the ground. With a flick of his finger, the demon Luo Gui stuck in the ground flew into his hand.
At this moment, Lida finally woke up and realized what had happened.
"I, you...Clow, that's one of the Four Emperors!!" Lida pointed at the head on the ground and screamed loudly.
The Four Emperors!
The key to the Four Emperors is not the number 'four', but the word 'emperor', which means 'emperors of the sea'.
The concept of the Four Emperors only emerged after that idiot Shanks occupied a large amount of territory in the New World.
However, the term "Emperor of the Sea" is different. It has existed for a long time. At that time, Charlotte Linlin, Whitebeard, and the then-powerful Golden Lion were all considered Emperors of the Sea, the overlords of the sea.
Later, Shiki failed, but Kaido rose to power, and it wasn't until Shanks became the Emperor of the Sea that the so-called 'Four Emperors' were truly established.
Which of these people wasn't a great hero of the sea? And which of them could be killed so easily?
Kaido has been captured so many times, yet he still survives.
Charlotte Linlin wielded immense power in Totto Land, rising from a mere pirate to become the queen of a powerful nation on the high seas. Kaido conquered Wano Country and became its 'Guardian King.' Their actions alone kept the Navy on edge.
During the Marineford War, the Marine Headquarters mobilized 100,000 elite naval personnel to deal with Whitebeard. This doesn't mean that they couldn't defeat Whitebeard without 100,000 men, but rather that only with such a force could they ensure their safety.
Even if Lingling was weakened and survived by someone else, it's still a bit too much for her to die from just one hit...
Kuro alone defeated one of the Four Emperors?
No, that's the second point: Shanks has already been captured.
Kuro looked at Kaido, who was still lying there. With this one, three of the Four Emperors were gone.
Is the ocean about to become calm?
"Don't be so surprised, you underestimate those idiots in the sky."
Kuro said to Kro, "Those guys are quite strong."
When Luffy is burning his life, he has the strength of a Yonko (Emperor of the Sea). Kid and Law are a little less powerful, but if they were to face Kaido instead of Big Mom, the two of them might be able to win together, as their combined strength is not low.
But if Kuro enters the fray again after this, and still can't finish him off, he might as well quit and go home to farm.
The top laner can easily take down one or two low-health opponents.
Bang!
Charlotte Linlin's headless body fell from the sky and landed on the ground, parallel to her head.
"Mother!!"
Prometheus, Hera, and Agnimiye, who had surrounded her, ran out and wept bitterly around Charlotte Linlin's body.
This person is truly dead, with no hope of ever being revived.
"Oh? Homies can survive after the death of their ability users? That's strange... Is it because you are independent individuals?"
Kuro was a little curious, but after thinking about it, he felt it made sense. The Homies could rebel, so they were obviously independent individuals. They were soul beings, but that meant they weren't permanent. This kind of soul activation that was stuffed in must have a lifespan limit, but as for how many, that was unknown.
"Damn Golden Lion, I will avenge my mother!!"
Prometheus roared, his fiery form now even more unrestrained, and he burned directly towards Kuro.
"What? It's just ordinary fire. Without Lingling, you can't make something like Soul Fire."
Kuro lifted the demon sword, and as soon as the blade touched the flames, the flames swirled around the blade. Then, with a single slash, he cut the flames apart.
Prometheus was split in two, and he thrashed about, crying out, "It hurts! It hurts so much!"
Kuro knows how to cut through fire; not only can he cut through fire, but cutting through wind and lightning is child's play for him.
Looking at Prometheus shouting, Kuro shook his head and said, "Can't a soul Homie die? After all, it's a soul, cutting it in half won't do any good."
"Run!"
With a shout from Anemi, a gust of wind arose, carrying the two halves of Prometheus and Hera, the thundercloud, directly towards the bottomless abyss.
Kuro glanced at them, but didn't bother to pay them any attention.
He wasn't too concerned about Homies of this level, and he genuinely didn't have any effective means of killing them.
Although he could use the 'Power' Blade to inflict damage, he had a more important matter to attend to. Compared to that, why bother with these Homies?
Kuro gripped the Raki tightly, looked at the figures floating in the air, a crimson glint in his eyes, and bared his teeth, saying, "Then let's settle this with a single battle!"
When the old ones are gone, the young ones will naturally die too!
Eliminating them might not guarantee peace on the seas, but it would at least ensure a decline in the pirates' morale, creating a de facto peace. The news of the Sea Emperor's death would suppress the restless thoughts of those pirates who wanted to continue sailing, at least making the first half of the seas and the four seas more stable.
"He's coming!" Yamato exclaimed in alarm, sensing Kuro's murderous intent.
"It's alright! He doesn't have that strange ribbon anymore, we can fight!" Luo gritted his teeth and said, "Trying to keep us here won't be so easy!"
"Perfect!"
Kidd roared, "I haven't even beaten Big Mom yet! Kuro, you stole my spoils, so I'll kill you and ascend to the throne of the Four Emperors!"
“Red-haired brat, you’re just as arrogant as your old man. I’ll make you an armless man too.”
Kuro let out a heavy sigh, lowered his head slightly, and said, "Besides, who told you I didn't have enough 'ribbons'..."
As soon as he finished speaking, six new Void Killings appeared around his body, encircling his shoulders, waist, and thighs.
Seeing this, Marco looked despairing. He gave a bitter laugh and shook his head, saying, "Well, it seems I'm going to be defeated here."
They couldn't resist that ribbon; there was absolutely nothing they could do. Marco still couldn't understand how Kuro killed Charlotte Linlin with a single blow, but he knew that he couldn't block that attack!
