Chapter 690: Luffy's desperate struggle!
Luffy did not answer Im.
He reached out and grasped the hilt of the divine sword once more.
Slowly pull it out of the ground.
He did not go to see Im again.
His attention was entirely focused on the divine sword.
With this sword strike, he would gather all his current strength.
Golden lightning slowly appeared from his right arm!
It burrowed into the sword, slowly covering every part of the divine sword.
Each line that was lit up emitted a buzzing sound.
The aftershocks of the lightning exploded wildly, instantly shattering all the shards of ice beneath his feet. The ice receded.
Several giant warriors were not able to dodge in time and were hit by the lightning. Loki noticed this and roared, ordering them to retreat behind the ice wall.
Luffy loosened his grip on the sword hilt with his right hand.
Turn your palms down.
A ball of white flame slowly emerged from his chest, spreading down his arm to his palm.
The flames were not as intense as before.
However, it should not be underestimated.
This is the Nika flame power that Luffy forcibly gathered.
He placed his palm on the spine of the sword.
Which ball of fire should be pushed in?
White flames and lightning collided inside the sword.
Gradually merge the two forces.
The divine sword, like chains, bound them tightly together.
Spin.
compression.
Finally, a layer of flowing platinum solidified on the surface of the blade.
A layer of light adhered to the blade, like living liquid metal, giving this ancient weapon its final armor.
Luffy's face remained expressionless.
He loosened his right hand and gripped the handle again.
With his left hand, he pressed the remaining white flame in using the same method.
After this procedure, the golden lines on his arms disappeared completely, and his skin returned to its original color.
But the greatsword shone even brighter.
The light of platinum spread from the blade across the entire sword, even illuminating the metallic texture of the hilt.
A third force.
It burst open between his shoulder blades.
The black and red color, like a wild beast unleashed, tore open his back and wrapped around the outermost layer of the greatsword.
Its domineering nature refuses to merge with them.
It used the most savage method to press down on the outermost layer, locking all the lightning and white flames inside the sword.
On the icy plains, the weaker naval forces began to suffer.
The dozen or so people closest to him were instantly struck by his domineering presence, their mouths and noses spitting blood, their legs buckling as they knelt on the ice, their weapons falling to the ground.
The Knights of God, further away, fared no better; two heavily wounded Celestial Dragon elites passed out without uttering a sound.
Loki used his left arm to shield his face, and used his right hand to shove his broken weapon into the ice to support his body.
He is tens of meters tall.
But when that black and red arc of electricity swept across his body, his knees still bent slightly.
My teeth were chattering.
It's instinct.
The intensity of this domineering color is no longer oppressive.
Luffy can't hold on any longer.
The right knee was the first to slam into the ice.
Spiderweb-like cracks burst open below his knees, and seawater seeped from every crack within a dozen meters.
He didn't fall.
He pressed his forehead firmly against the sword hilt and guard, using the sword to support his upper body.
He managed to steady his trembling arm.
His breathing was like a broken bellows, and the air he exhaled was full of white mist and golden sparks.
He flicked his fingers at the hilt of the sword twice, then bent them back one by one.
The backlash from the three forces was exploding again from his body.
The skin on his right arm, from his shoulder to the back of his hand, was covered in cracks.
It wasn't blood seeping from the crack.
It was golden light.
Nika's power was leaking out of his body.
10,000 meters above the ground.
Chen Ye's eyes narrowed.
His Observation Haki caught a detail.
The blade of the divine sword sometimes glowed and sometimes dimmed.
It is also very regular.
When it lights up, it injects a wisp of power into Luffy's body.
When it is extinguished, the force ceases to be transmitted.
That was the weapon saving the Lord.
The divine sword sensed its master's presence slowly fading away!
Chen Ye turned his attention back to the battlefield.
He didn't move.
He kept a close eye on the situation on the battlefield.
Im made the first move.
The Sword of the Codex lay horizontally before him, and the dark gold shield reappeared, like a wall.
The power of darkness and the power of the Earth God were both unleashed.
The ground beneath Im's feet was shaking.
The black substance deep underground was extracted and solidified into three walls, stacked outside the protective shield.
Each wall was half a meter thick, with black things rolling around inside, and occasionally a few streaks of red light could be seen.
Three walls.
A protective shield.
Im pointed the sword tip at Luffy, the mockery gone from his crimson eyes.
He knew he couldn't dodge this attack.
Luffy stared at Im's turtle shell.
Laughed.
The laughter was short, like a fart that dissipates in the wind.
But there was no bitterness in that laughter.
He raised his head and stood up straight.
Then he did something.
He infused the power of rubber into the sword.
The weight of the greatsword remained the same, but it began to bend.
Like a steel bar that has been bent under pressure.
The curvature is not large.
Luffy continued to push inward.
Rubber gives metal elasticity, and the weight of the metal allows this elasticity to accumulate into terrifying power.
Behind the pile of rocks, Zoro's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
He drew all three of his knives.
Instinctive reaction.
He doesn't understand.
Which grip method is not a matter of any particular swordsmanship.
Luffy's grip was too low, his thumb was pressing on the base of the handguard, and his wrist was turned outwards.
That's the way you hold a stick.
But Zoro's intuition was warning him.
Luffy combined the elasticity of rubber, the weight of divine weapons, and the binding of Conqueror's Haki to create a completely new type of slashing attack.
The power accumulated by the greatsword's bending will explode the moment it bounces back.
At that moment, Conqueror's Haki would envelop the sword's edge.
This does not belong to any sword theory.
Zoro gritted his teeth and slowly pushed the three swords back into their sheaths, inch by inch.
He admitted it.
He couldn't dodge or catch that sword strike.
Luffy suddenly pulled with both arms.
The greatsword was pushed to its limit and then rebounded violently.
The metallic hum sounded like muffled thunder.
The moment the sword blade bounced back to a straight line from the lowest point of its curve, the platinum light left a trail of afterimages in the air.
Lightning.
White flame.
Conqueror's Haki.
The three forces were flung out the instant the sword rebounded, twisting into a platinum torrent several meters thick, which surged outwards.
The torrent first tore through the clouds overhead.
The golden-white beam of light split the black clouds that had covered Elbaf for hundreds of years in two.
The sky was revealed.
It is gray.
The shattered clouds were set ablaze and burned in the sky.
Then the torrent swept through the air.
Everything along the way was compressed and evaporated.
A torrent of platinum.
It charged straight toward Im.
Im's pupils shrank to a single point.
The dark gold patterns all over his body emerged from under his skin, like a net growing out of his body.
The sword of the law is screaming.
The words on the sword all lit up with a red light.
Three black walls closed together.
In front of Im, a thicker wall was formed.
The Dark Gold Shield is the last layer.
Four layers of defense.
Im gave up dodging.
They gave up composure.
The King of the World's defenses, built up over eight hundred years, were fully deployed at this moment.
Like a city wall built of darkness and laws.
Head-on to meet Luffy's strongest attack.
