Chapter 182: The Winner is Decided
A blue-eyed giant dragon transformed from sword energy roared in the air!
Its aura was majestic, as if the earth was trembling and the sky was whimpering!
What shocked everyone even more was that this blue-eyed giant dragon was at least nearly 50,000 meters long!
A full 20,000 meters taller than Joy Boy!
The dragon itself, just by coiling in the air, gave a suffocating feeling!
Not to mention the dragon's body was covered in a layer of scale armor formed by Rono's Conqueror's Haki, as if poured with molten iron!
The cloud flames around the giant dragon were composed of eerie ghostly aura!
Combined with the four devil powers of the dragon's four giant claws!
Its might had firmly suppressed Joy Boy, the king of the Ancient Kingdom eight hundred years ago!
"A 50,000-meter giant dragon! What a majestic sight!"
"The aura is too immense, just one look is enough to make people feel submissive!"
"Is this transformed from sword energy?"
Meanwhile, where Rono and Joy Boy were fighting.
In the distant sky, an island and more than a dozen warships were floating on two sides!
The Emperor-level powerhouses of Marineford were all in them!
The moment this 50,000-meter-long giant dragon appeared, it made all the powerhouses present exclaim in admiration, their pupils dilated!
A 50,000-meter-long giant dragon, it was the first time they had seen it in their lives!
Just being glanced at by this giant dragon could make these Emperor-level powerhouses' hearts tremble!
Rumble!
The next moment, the giant dragon acted!
Its huge body did not seem clumsy at all, but was swift and agile!
After all, this was just an illusion transformed from sword energy!
Crack crack~ crack crack~!
The next moment, Joy Boy also released his full aura!
The color of the golden Conqueror's Haki was even thicker than before!
The terrifying aura instantly froze the surrounding air!
It seems Joy Boy also knew that this was the decisive blow!
He also wanted to consume all his Haki at once!
Crash!
The next moment, Joy Boy swung a palm!
The giant palm shining with golden light flashed with a golden light that seemed to be able to cleanse people's souls, like a Buddha's divine palm!
A palm-shaped, golden-glowing giant shockwave shot out!
Roar!
The giant dragon roared upon seeing this, as if extremely excited, and immediately rushed towards that giant palm-shaped shockwave!
Rumble, rumble!
Soon, the giant palm and the blue dragon collided!
The air seemed to be compressed to an extreme point!
The Emperor-level powerhouses present all felt their breathing a bit difficult!
Gasp~ gasp!
The giant dragon and the giant palm constantly pulled and tore at each other!
The collision of the two giant objects!
Violent heat rose, and the surrounding seawater constantly rose into the air, then was evaporated by the extreme high temperature!
The explosion produced by the collision of the giant objects actually erupted with a burst of colorful light, like a rainbow, yet extremely dazzling!
Extreme radiation light continuously spread, instantly spreading in all directions!
Light!
Extreme light!
As if at the beginning of creation, everything around became chaotic, with only a white light that blinded people's eyes!
Couldn't see anything, and couldn't even hear any sound!
Marineford was instantly covered by this extreme light!
It's unknown how long this situation lasted!
Boom!
With an unprecedented loud noise, that light immediately disappeared!
Immediately, a huge shockwave spread wildly in all directions!
The Emperor-level powerhouses present only felt a huge and terrifying sense of oppression instantly descend!
Immediately followed by a storm, lightning, and Haki constantly impacting!
Even Emperor-level powerhouses had to use all their strength to hold on to the ground to stabilize their figures!
This was the aftermath of the clash of the two's moves rippling!
Boom boom boom!
This aftermath lasted for several tens of minutes before calming down!
"What's the result?"
"Who won?!"
After that aftermath finally dissipated.
The Five Elders, the Holy Knights, and the Marine powerhouses.
Plus the powerhouses of the God Slayer Pirates immediately looked at the center of the battle!
The next scene made all the powerhouses present stunned—
Only to see where Rono and Joy Boy's moves collided, the seawater that originally submerged them up to their knees could now only submerge their ankles!
Some tree roots and land hidden deep under the sea were even revealed!
In other words, the clash between the two just now had instantly evaporated nearly half of the huge amount of seawater in this sea area!
The nearly ten-thousand-meter-deep sea probably only had 5,000 meters left at this moment!
"The sea... has evaporated by half!"
"If it happens again, won't this whole sea area be evaporated!"
"What terrifying power!"
The Emperor-level powerhouses on both sides were all stunned, standing in place in shock!
In fact, neither Rono nor Joy Boy had any extra Haki or stamina to do it again at this moment!
The next moment!
Crack crack~ crack crack~!
Joy Boy's figure was the first to change!
After a great flash of golden light, Joy Boy's body instantly returned from 30,000 meters to nearly a hundred meters!
Not only that, Joy Boy's pupils also changed after recovering!
From the original dark red, concentric pupils similar to Im's, to his original pupils.
At this time, he had obviously broken free from Im's control and possessed his own personality!
But the aura on his body was also rapidly decaying, and it was obvious that he had reached the point of dying!
On the contrary, Rono, whose figure had also returned to normal from 30,000 meters.
Except for looking pale and having consumed a lot of stamina, his aura had not diminished in the slightest!
The winner was already obvious!
"Defeated me who can giantify..."
"[The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono, are you the person I've been waiting for?"
"Imprisoned by the World Government for a full eight hundred years, I finally waited for the person I've been waiting for!"
Joy Boy finally spoke!
At this moment, Joy Boy looked at Rono with tears in his eyes, his tone excited!
He had finally waited for the person who could save this world and himself!
Although Joy Boy had been dead for these eight hundred years.
But because his soul had been imprisoned in the Holy Land by Im, his soul could not go to the land of rebirth at all!
His soul was imprisoned by the blood feud of his defeat, imprisoned in that Holy Land Mary Geoise!
From time to time, he had to be summoned by Im to serve the World Government he once despised and hated most!
Defeating one after another strong enemies who could have crushed the World Government and saved him!
It could be said that for these eight hundred years, Joy Boy had been defeating the people who could save his soul!
After doing all this, his soul and body were once again imprisoned in the Holy Land by Im, and he spent eight hundred years like this!
No one could empathize with Joy Boy's pain!
Fortunately, today, he was defeated!
He... could finally be free!
At least, he no longer had to serve the Im and the World Government he hated most!
Joy Boy shed hot tears
