Chapter 23 - Overwhelming

"What is this?"

Tesoro looked at the huge fiery figure in panic. The terrifying pressure made him feel a little uneasy.

"I say, Tesoro, isn't it a little too early to celebrate your victory?"

Vlad's sinister lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile. "The real outcome is only about to begin!"

"This is?"

Tesoro immediately calmed down. He was an expert who had dominated the New World for more than ten years.

"It seems that you've obtained a very powerful strength!"

Tesoro's face was gloomy. He knew that Vlad did not have the ability of the devil fruit before. After all, when Vlad was an internal affairs officer of the Charlotte Family, they had taken a bath together. His entire body was soft, and Vlad was free and unfettered.

This was obviously the ability of the animal type. For a physical expert like Vlad, the ability of the animal type was no different from adding wings to a tiger. The increase in Vlad's strength was extremely great. In addition to this flame, this flame seemed to be able to burn everything and control the power of the flame.

"Zoan Fruit, Mythical Beast?" Tesoro frowned tightly. He felt that he had a high chance of winning against Vlad who had obtained the ability of the devil fruit. Although Vlad had defeated one of the four generals, Snack, when he betrayed the Charlotte Family, the weakest general star was strong, but he could win if he wanted to.

In addition to his own home field, Tesoro was confident that he could easily defeat Vlad. However, he did not expect that in just a few months, Vlad had already obtained a powerful fruit that was extremely suitable for him. In this way, it would be hard to predict the outcome of the battle.

"How knowledgeable." Vlad took a step forward, and the raging flames around him became even more violent. "Mythical Zoan, Fire Dragon Fruit. How is it? Not bad, right?"

"Amazing," Tesoro expressionlessly used a golden wall to block the roaring flames. However, the golden wall could not stop the spread of the flames and was instantly enveloped by the flames.

Tesoro clenched his right hand and another golden wall rose from the ground. The black Busoshoku wrapped around it and the golden flames were finally blocked.

"As expected," Tesoro heaved a sigh of relief. This flame was not unstoppable. "I can use Haki"

"Yes, yes," Vlad explained with great interest, "Haki can prevent my flames from burning. There is no doubt about it, but..."

Vlad said softly, "How many places can your Haki cover?"

The raging flames had already begun to spread down rapidly along the towering buildings. The huge building began to crumble. The terrifying flames carried a strong temperature, and the building was already on the verge of melting.

"Vlad"

Tesoro roared. This ship was a treasure that he had put in more than ten years of effort into. It was a treasure that could not be destroyed.

"What?" Vlad smiled gently. "Do you feel sorry for me? This is nothing!"

"Tesoro, you have two choices now. One is to continue fighting with me. If you can kill me, it would be best. If you can't kill me, then don't blame me for being straightforward. Tell that gossipy bird about your little secret!" (Morgan.)

"You are courting death!"

Tesoro's tone was very gloomy.

"Yes, I am looking for death,"

"Come on, kill me!" Vlad beckoned.

Vlad was very curious as to what level of strength he could reach with the Fire Dragon Fruit. He had never been able to have a clear understanding of himself because he did not have a qualified target.

Now that he was facing Tesoro, this man was not weak, especially in his lair.

In a place like Gran Tesoro, all the gold on the ship was controlled by his ability. Once it exploded, it would be an extremely terrifying power.

"What?"

Tesoro was extremely shocked. The gold that he had been using after awakening suddenly stopped moving. To be more precise, the gold around him was no longer gold. The terrifying flames added to it made it very different from normal gold. The terrifying heat caused the nature of gold to change greatly. It was not easy to control them with the means of gold.

"Haha!"

Vlad smiled. "It seems that my flames are the bane of your power!"

Vlad did not lie. The awakening of the Paramecia abilities affected the surrounding environment and could turn everything around into his own ability. However, as long as Vlad's flames were covered with dominance or seawater, they could burn. In this way, even if they were to awaken, they would still burn.

"Tsk!"

Tesoro was unwilling.

"Is it my turn?"

Vlad took a step and shot out at a terrifying speed. Although it was not a speed-enhancing skill similar to the Rokushiki - Soru, but with the addition of the terrifying physical fitness of Vlad dragon, his speed had reached a terrifying level that ordinary people could not reflect.

"Dragon Fist - Dragon Claw!"

Although the name was Dragon Claw, it was actually a powerful punch. The Busoshoku Haki that reflected the purple light had already wrapped around his arm. The golden flames gushed out, and the terrifying power was contained within.

However, Tesoro was not a mediocre person. Although he had always relied on the devil fruit, he was someone who had been in the new world for decades. He was naturally very familiar with the control of Haki.

Vlad was very fast, but it was not impossible to fight back. The Kenbunshoku Haki was for this existence. One had to know that the Kenbunshoku Haki was able to block Kizaru and his Pika Pika Fruit. It could be seen that the Kenbunshoku Haki was used to deal with speed-type opponents.

Tesoro's arms instantly turned dark. The fruit ability was not easy to use now, so he could only fight against Vlad with Haki.

It was also a powerful punch, and even the air was slightly distorted.

"Bang!"

"Crack! Crack!"

Tesoro flew backwards and smashed into the floor. He slid back a distance, and the surging flames that had already occupied the entire roof instantly enveloped him. A heart-wrenching pain instantly spread out.

"Yes!"

Tesoro's entire body suddenly turned dark, and the Busoshoku Haki wrapped around his body. The flames that were raging on his body finally extinguished at this time.

At this time, he noticed that his right arm was swollen, and even the bones inside were broken.

"Hahahaha!"

"Too naive, Tesoro,"

Vlad strolled over, his huge wings flapping gently behind his back, "Just like how there are high and low levels in the Kenbunshoku Haki, the Busoshoku Haki also has levels!"

"You have always relied on the fruit ability,"

Vlad tilted his head, "it's a shame that you choose the wrong opponent!"
