Chapter 409: Great Wall, Yinglong, Five-Colored Qilin
[Qingqiu Fruit]
[Fruit of the Stars]
[Can freely divide one's fox fur into incarnations. Each incarnation can possess a fruit ability from within the Fruit Encyclopedia, and is not affected by Seastone.]
[There can be nine incarnations divided from the fox tails, each possessing an ability at the "Deep Development" level. But if the fox fur incarnations are entrusted within other living creatures, they can exist boundlessly.]
[Additional Effect · Hidden in Qingqiu]
[Relying on the Wish Trial Secret Realm - "Mount Qingqiu", the fruit user can freely transform their own state between illusion and reality, changing their own ability and appearance into anything within Mount Qingqiu. And under the circumstance that any incarnation exists, the user's main body will not die or be injured; injuries will be borne by the incarnations on their behalf.]
Yes.
Imu's power locked down all Devil Fruit abilities on the entire battlefield.
But what Dog used was never a "Devil Fruit", but rather his own unique "Fruit of the Stars".
Moreover, just as Marco thought.
Dog's move was merely the beginning.
Closely following Dog, the next to step forward... was "Rabbit".
BOOM!
He took a step forward, and then... a similar behemoth also rose from behind him.
That was a magnificent, massive city wall.
And similarly, right now, the vast majority of people, as long as they had some eyes and ears on the sea, instantly recognized that massive city wall.
"It's one of the Twelve Trial Grounds, the 'Great Wall of Ancestral Veins'!"
"I've been to this Trial Ground, the goal is to fight against the barbarians from beyond the Great Wall!"
"I've also heard of it. This is the one with the highest requirement for unity among all Trial Grounds—all challengers must unite as one and fight resolutely to achieve victory."
And amidst the exclamations of the people.
That magnificent Great Wall spanned heaven and earth like a giant dragon, and then... on every "beacon tower" of that Great Wall, flames began to ignite.
Fwoosh!
Those raging flames continuously dissipated, and the scattering sparks fell instantly, landing on everyone belonging to The Zodiac's side across the entire battlefield.
Then...
Everyone felt as if something was beginning to change within their bodies.
The "Abyssal Power" of the Abyssal Magic Circle that had been surrounding the battlefield and, in coordination with Imu's power, suppressing everyone, seemed to vanish into thin air at this instant.
All warriors felt as if they had shed a massive burden.
The flow of Haki and the burst of power became smoother than ever before!
It was as if an invisible barrier was built within their minds, accompanied by the appearance of this Great Wall.
And it was also as if a flame named "fighting spirit" was ignited in their hearts, accompanied by the appearance of the Great Wall.
And at the same time, phantom figures also appeared out of thin air on the beacon towers of the Great Wall, leaping down from the top of the Great Wall.
Their figures presented a semi-transparent, illusory color, and their appearances seemed to be replicas of every warrior present.
[Great Wall Fruit]
[Fruit of the Stars]
[This fruit can ignite "Beacon Fires of Battle" in the hearts of all allied and neutral living creatures, massively enhancing their strength, fighting spirit, and vitality, and their will shall not weaken for any reason.]
[The beacon towers will replicate corresponding "Great Wall Guards" based on the strength and power of the combatants. These guards will not die, and will gradually grow stronger as fighting spirit substitutes.]
[The user can merge the power of the Great Wall Guards into themselves. The more allied members participating in the battle, the stronger the user's ability.]
And besides this, right now above the sky, golden rain and dew also sprinkled down.
From the source of the rain and dew, that Dreamland Island whose name had long shaken the sea.
But unlike before.
The Dreamland Island right now had already transformed into the appearance of that pure white Qilin.
And the countless "Mythical Beasts" on Dreamland Island continuously gathered, similarly transforming into several other massive Qilins.
Those numerous Qilins soared towards the sky, instantly colliding with that massive "Abyssal Magic Circle" above the sky.
Subsequently, five-colored radiance flashed respectively at the five corners of that massive pentagram.
Intense starlight began to construct another entirely new magic circle.
[Mythical Zoan · Five-Colored Qilin Fruit]
[Fruit of the Stars]
[The fruit user can merge with any natural phenomenon between heaven and earth, and thereby create special "Dream Creatures" and "Subspecies Qilins".]
[The Qilin can divide into a total of five, and these five Qilins are all considered extensions of the user's own body, capable of freely transforming and reversing all abnormal energy and Lineage Factor Source Energy within range.]
And exactly after those five-colored Qilins crashed into the Abyssal Magic Circle.
That massive Abyssal Magic Circle clearly began to faintly shatter—cracks began to appear out of thin air on that pitch-black magic circle.
"Hm!?"
And seeing this scene, Shamrock, whose face was already pale due to a massive burst of exertion right now, also had a sharp expression: "Audacious!"
Clearly, before Imu completed the final absorption, he absolutely could not tolerate the Abyssal Magic Circle being destroyed.
He raised his hand and drew his sword, and a slash flew out instantly.
Then... annihilation.
Because right now, a massive Azure Dragon had already blocked in front of Shamrock.
Of course, it wasn't that Shamrock hadn't faced a dragon directly before—in the previous battle at Fish-Man Island, he had faced Loki, who had transformed into the Black Dragon Nidhogg.
However, even Loki could not be mentioned in the same breath as the existence slowly manifesting in front of Shamrock right now.
Only to see that appearing in front of him right now was strikingly a crimson giant dragon, resembling a snake yet a deer, a lion yet an eagle.
"Dragon's" posture was the same as in the past, manifesting the appearance of an Eastern Divine Dragon.
But the difference was, right now, a pair of golden wings was clearly growing on his body.
And in the world before Roy transmigrated, there was a saying passed down through generations.
"Those with scales are called Jiao Dragons, those with horns are called Qiu Dragons, and those with wings are called Yinglongs."
"The Yinglong, is the chief of dragons."
Just like right now.
Clouds, fierce winds, and lightning surrounded his body just like in the past.
But the difference was—right now, his dragon body was also covered with starlight-like scales.
And he merely gently flapped his dragon wings.
The slash Shamrock unleashed, along with the dark cloud vortex formed by the Abyssal Magic Circle above the sky, was directly torn apart.
VMMM!
Dazzling sunlight and starlight sprinkled down on the battlefield, and fierce winds and lightning stirred up ocean waves, as if chanting.
[Yinglong Fruit]
[Fruit of the Stars]
[Can transform into the Yinglong, chief of all dragons. Its body cannot be destroyed or damaged by any means. The only weakness is the 'reverse scale' behind its neck; consecutively attacking the reverse scale three times within a short time can destroy the body's sturdiness. Can manipulate Lineage Factor Source Energy and transform it into all abilities related to 'celestial phenomena'.]
"Heaven moves myriad phenomena."
And right now, Dragon's massive dragon body coiled, and amidst the flashing radiance of the five-colored Qilins.
That massive Abyssal Magic Circle... completely shattered the next moment, amidst Shamrock's splitting eyes!
