Lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled, leaving Knuckle at a loss!
He had to focus on dealing with the iron balloon in front of him, and the people on Secon Island seemed to have no answer for the devastating lightning that was about to strike down.
And Reborn and the others were also unable to make a move now. Did they have no choice but to watch the lightning destroy Secon Island?
"Big Mom! Stop that damn thunder!"
Knuckle shouted angrily. He planted his feet on the ground to build momentum and rushed at a breakneck speed as he threw another punch, which contained a devastating power.
Facing such an attack, Big Mom did not dare to be careless. She immediately imbued the giant sword in her hand with Color of Arms Haki to fend off the attack.
"Boom!"
The collision between their powers created a terrifying shockwave. Cracks appeared on the ground beneath their feet. Had it not for the fact that Knuckle had separated the area around the pier from Secon Island, the intense clash would have definitely affected the entire island.
"Ma-ma-ma-ma! I admit that you are very powerful, Knuckle! But even if you can hold me back, Zeus can strike down everything you want to protect. And then..."
Big Mom sneered with eyes full of mockery. "How long can you last? Once you are exhausted, I will cut off your head and tear Vongola Family apart!"
"Rumble!"
Just at this moment, the lightning in the sky was charging its power, ready to strike at any moment.
Seeing this scene, Knuckle quickly turned around, planning to stop the lightning that was trying to destroy Secon Island. However, there was no way Big Mom would just let him go!
The instant Knuckle turned around, Big Mom once again set Napoleon ablaze with Prometheus' Flame. She gripped the hilt of her sword tightly with both hands and charged toward Knuckle, "Emperor Blade: Blade of Destruction!"
In this situation, Knuckle only had two choices. One was to ignore Big Mom's attack and rush to Secon Island as possible, and the other was to turn around to block Big Mom's attack.
If he chose the former, he would definitely be severely injured even if he made it to Secon Island. It was extremely disadvantageous in the long run. Moreover, what would Big Mom do while he was dealing with the thunder? She might destroy Secon Island or attack Reborn!
In other words, none of these two choices were good to begin with!
Knuckle gritted his teeth as he turned around, giving up his attempt to rush toward Secon Island. His fist met Big Mom's attack head-on. However, since he was in a hurry, he couldn't muster enough strength. He had a hard time fending off the attack, and the ground beneath him was breaking.
"Rumble!"
The thunder was ready to strike at any given moment. At this time, no one could react.
"That doesn't seem like natural weather. Is the thunder planning to destroy my territory? Doesn't anyone know that this is my Family, so I'm technically the lord of this place?"
At some point, a certain figure appeared on Secon Island. He was wearing a white flannel shirt and blue pants. He looked lazy with one eye open and the other one closed. The most eye-catching thing about him was his green hair...
"Knuckle seems to have his hands tied. Primo isn't around either. Does that mean I have to stop this thing?"
The green-haired man sighed helplessly. After a few consecutive leaps, he reached the highest roof in the surroundings. He raised his head and looked at the rumbling thunder that was ready to strike at any moment. "Ah... everything that I don't want to see should all disappear. For example, this lightning!"
Many people began to notice the green-haired man on the top of the roof. They watched as the man stared at the lightning, raising one of his hands high to the sky as if planning to block the lightning.
"What the hell? Does that guy want to block Mama's thunder?"
"That idiot will be turned into ashes!"
"That guy is full of himself!"
Big Mom Pirates' crews laughed. They did not expect that someone was crazy enough to block the incoming thunder.
Vongola Primo or Alaudi might be one thing, but They had never heard of this green-haired guy before...
This guy was basically courting death.
"Huh? Secon Island should be safe now. I can rest easy for now."
Reborn dodged Katakuri's attack, and as he jumped back, he also saw the green-haired man. He then smiled, and he became calmer than before.
At the same time, Knuckle, who was fighting with Big Mom, also noticed that figure. The anxiety in his heart disappeared the moment he saw the green-haired man. He no longer had any doubts as he repelled Big Mom's attack and slowly stood up. "'Big Mom, let me give you a piece of advise! It'd be best for you to give up on attacking Secon Island and focus on this battle. Otherwise, you will lose miserably! "
Big Mom naturally noticed the change in Knuckle. Knuckle's eyes suddenly became even more determined as if he was certain that he would win!
"Looks like you know that guy. However, do you really think he can block my lightning? Ma-ma-ma-ma! If that's what you think, then I'll just turn him into ashes.. . Zeus!"
As he shouted, Zeus did not wait any longer. A massive lightning struck down the green-haired man.
Seeing this scene, the green-haired man did not have the slightest intention of dodging. The hand he raised exuded green lightning and it turned into a lightning net that stopped the thunder, leaving the town below him completely unscathed.
After all, he was the Vongola Family's strongest shield!
The First Lightning Guardian, Lampow!
