"Roar—"
Fresh blood vanished as the massive boar, torn in two, regenerated entirely.
Enraged beyond measure, it charged at the colossal Quetzalcoatl, which emerged unscathed from the rubble, as though nothing had happened.
Clang! Clang!
Two massive tusks flew out, transforming into razor-sharp blades that slashed through the air.
With a sharp whoosh, the giant snake's tail, wrapped in Haki, whipped out violently.
Clang!!!
The deafening clash of metal reverberated as the seemingly indestructible tusk blades were brutally deflected.
The enormous Gyuki charged forward, only to be suddenly enveloped by dense, thorn-covered vines whipping toward it with lightning speed.
Forced to abandon its attack, it used its spider-like legs, reinforced with Haki and sharp as blades, to furiously slash and tear through the Iron Thorn Vines.
"Roar—"
The massive Quetzalcoatl exuded wild aggression. Swift as lightning, it lunged forward. Its armored, steel-hard head collided head-on with the rushing Fengxi, whose skin was tougher than iron.
Boom!!!
The impact rang out like the tolling of colossal bells. Their giant heads, reinforced with powerful Haki and crackling with black and red lightning, collided in a ferocious stalemate.
Though their physical forms never touched, an invisible barrier of force erupted between them as their auras clashed. Neither side yielded, both exerting overwhelming force.
Snap... Crackle...
Their Conqueror's Haki reverberated like a thunderstorm. Above, the churning clouds tore through the darkened sky, revealing terrifying sights.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The heavens seemed to split as two swirling masses of clouds clashed violently. The spectacle was both shocking and awe-inspiring.
Splash! Crash!
Enormous waves churned violently over the sea as shockwaves radiated outward, shaking the entire battlefield.
The massive Fengxi staggered backward, its hooves fracturing the ground beneath it. Meanwhile, the Quetzalcoatl, its flames blazing fiercely, was merely pushed back slightly before regaining its composure. Unfazed, it surged forward again with relentless determination.
Whizz! Whizz!
Toxic orbs shot forward with deadly precision as the Gyuki, finally freed from the vines, attacked. The Quetzalcoatl, agile and swift, evaded the projectiles with ease.
Boom! Boom!
The toxic orbs detonated violently, sending rock and smoke flying in all directions. The three monstrous beasts clashed ferociously, their battle raging with unrelenting savagery.
Shhhhhh—
At the same time, the giant sandworm, which had been torn into pieces and had parts of its body thrown into the sea by the ancient pterosaurs, shockingly regenerated.
"Marines and CP0—stand back!" it bellowed, baring its razor-sharp teeth.
The sandworm unleashed a terrifying suction force, its gaping maw pulling in debris, stones, and even whole buildings, which were shredded and devoured by its swirling vortex.
Boom! Boom! Entire buildings collapsed as they were sucked into the abyss-like maw.
Those battling nearby—including Rock, Jien, Moss, and two Marine vice admirals—were a fraction too slow to retreat, finding themselves unable to resist the pull. Even two Six-Winged Fallen Angel Homies, positioned closer to the vortex, stumbled as the wind dragged them closer.
"What?!"
"That thing..."
"I can't control my body!"
Even the giant warriors, transformed into ancient beasts, faltered, their massive frames swaying as the pull of the vortex dragged them closer.
"Jace, let's show them who's boss!"
"Got it! Bahahaha!"
High in the Sky
Noticing the chaos below, the two ancient pterosaurs didn't hesitate. With a powerful flap of their wings, they swooped down.
"Rumble Ball!"
Their sharp beaks reached into their pouches and plucked out large yellow pills. Unlike the typical Rumble Ball, which was the size of a human thumb, these were massive—larger than a human fist—perfectly proportioned for their enormous forms.
These giant Rumble Balls had been specially developed by Dr. Kureha to suit the colossal size of the Giants' Zoan-type Devil Fruit users.
"Power Boost!!"
"Wing Enhancement!!"
With a deafening whoosh, the two massive figures flapped their wings. Their speed more than doubled, making them nearly impossible to track as they dove toward the enormous sandworm.
"Pterosaur Slash—"
"Solar Saw!!"
As they streaked past the sandworm, their massive wings, now hardened and razor-sharp, slashed through the air, cloaked in Haki.
Splatter—Splatter—
Fresh blood sprayed everywhere. The massive black-and-white sandworm let out a shriek of pain, its body severed into three sections before crashing lifelessly to the ground.
The immense suction force, as unstoppable as a super typhoon, vanished instantly.
"What?!"
"Those two..."
The CP0 agents and Marine vice admirals stared wide-eyed at the scene, their faces pale. They couldn't believe these two Giant warriors, armed with the abilities of ancient pterosaurs, could be so ferocious.
Even a member of the Five Elders—a figure of near-mythical power—had been shredded and torn apart effortlessly.
"Heh, I guess it's time to turn things around... Rumble Ball!"
Dodging an incoming slash with some effort, Moss, who had been pushed onto the defensive and sustained minor injuries, smirked coldly.
Reaching into his pouch, he retrieved a pill. Surprisingly, this Rumble Ball was a deep blue, radiating an eerie aura.
Locking eyes with the powerful CP0 agent before him—an opponent far superior to ordinary Marine vice admirals—Moss's gaze burned with killing intent.
"Trying to boost your strength with drugs? Surely there must be a heavy price to pay," the CP0 agent sneered.
Covered in spotted fur and resembling a menacing leopard, his eyes gleamed coldly. With a powerful step, the agent shot forward at lightning speed, his claws cloaked in Haki and aimed directly at Moss.
"Even if you've stolen techniques like the Six Powers, the gap between us is too vast. No drug can bridge that!"
"Shigan: Ten-Finger Strike!"
"Bang!!"
Moss crossed his arms, reinforcing them with Haki, barely managing to block the incoming attack. Yet the agent's claws pierced through, drawing blood that dripped visibly from Moss's arms.
"Shhh!"
Using the impact's force, Moss leaped backward, widening the gap between them. Without hesitation, he swallowed the blue Rumble Ball.
The CP0 agent's eyes widened in shock as he witnessed Moss undergo a startling transformation before him.
"Roar!!"
Moss let out an earth-shaking roar as his wings transformed into steel-like claws. Large, majestic wings sprouted from his back. But that wasn't all.
As a member of the Mink Tribe, his fur turned a brilliant white, glowing faintly with an electrical charge. His blood-red eyes gleamed menacingly, and his teeth sharpened to terrifying points.
"What is this?"
The CP0 agent, a Zoan user of the Cat-Cat Fruit: Leopard Model, stared in disbelief. Moss's aura had shifted entirely.
"You think being older than me makes you stronger? Don't get too full of yourself... the real fight starts now!"
Covered in thick white fur and crackling with electricity, Moss's form now resembled a mythical gryphon.
"Soru!"
With a thunderous step, the ground beneath Moss shattered as he shot forward like a bolt of lightning.
"Shh!!"
Appearing before the startled CP0 agent in a flash, Moss's electrified claws, wrapped in Haki, slashed down fiercely.
"What?!"
The CP0 agent's face contorted in shock, his pupils dilating.
"Tekkai: Airwood!!"
In an instant, his muscles tensed, his blood circulation accelerated, and his chest expanded. Reinforcing his chest with Haki, he braced for impact.
"Boom!!"
But Moss's sharp claws tore through the agent's defenses, leaving a gaping wound across his chest. The agent was sent flying like a cannonball, blood spurting from his mouth.
Wide-eyed and bloodshot, he stared at Moss in disbelief. "That Haki... How is this possible?"
By all logic, Moss's Haki should have been much weaker, incapable of penetrating his defense.
"Haven't you ever heard of a Mink transforming into a Sulong under the light of day?"
Flashing a toothy grin, Moss's words dripped with menace. "Well, you're about to see it for yourself!"
This transformation was thanks to a custom Rumble Ball developed by Dr. Kureha at Moss's request, specifically for his Mink physiology.
Not only did it allow for multi-stage transformations, but it also triggered a Sulong form during daylight hours. Although the transformation lasted only a few minutes, it exponentially increased his speed, strength, and other physical attributes while significantly enhancing his Haki.
"A Sulong... during the day?"
