Chapter 195: The Nightmare's Mad Dance! The Hundred-Shadow Sanction of the Blue Behemoth
In the center of the ruined Thriller Bark, thick smoke billowed.
Before the mountain-like body of the demon Oars,
stood a blue giant. Though small in comparison, he exuded a suffocating pressure.
That was the Straw Hat Captain who had swallowed exactly one hundred shadows—Nightmare Luffy.
Oars lowered his massive head, looking at the blue monster before him that radiated a dangerous aura.
His beastly instincts made him feel a shiver of fear.
He opened his bloody maw and let out a roar that shattered the clouds, swinging the thick single arm he had left after Tatsuya had burned the other off, his massive muscle groups suddenly contracting.
"Gum-Gum Rifle!"
Even as a corpse, under the forced stretching of Moria's Shadow-Shadow Fruit, this punch still carried a world-destroying, terrifying kinetic energy.
The massive fist, like a high-speed rotating drill, tore through the air and smashed down toward Nightmare Luffy on the ground.
Facing this heaven-blocking strike,
Nightmare Luffy's eyes, framed by black eye shadow, were filled with ferocity and arrogance.
He didn't dodge or hide; he simply slowly raised a thick arm.
Boom—!!!
Two fists, one large and one small, collided violently in mid-air!
The dull explosion was like thunder from the highest heavens. A violent air current exploded outward from the two of them, turning into a visible white shockwave that instantly overturned and crushed the surrounding broken stone pillars and ruins.
However, a shocking scene occurred.
Nightmare Luffy had actually used only one hand to steadily catch Oars' full-strength strike, which was powerful enough to split mountains.
The ground beneath his feet didn't even show a hint of sinking.
It was as if that force of tens of millions of tons had been dissipated into thin air by him.
"How is this possible?!"
Moria, hidden inside the cockpit in Oars' abdomen, nearly had his eyeballs pop out of his head.
He clutched the control console tightly, his face as pale as paper, his voice filled with unbelievable horror:
"Damn it!
"One monster capable of summoning black flames just left, and now another one shows up!
"The aura inside this guy... just how many shadows did he stuff in there?!"
Nightmare Luffy gave Moria no chance to breathe.
He reached back and pulled out the heavy greatsword strapped to his back—it was an instinct granted by the shadow of a powerful swordsman inside him.
This blue body erupted with a rapid speed completely unbefitting its size.
His legs exerted sudden force, and he leapt up like an arrow from a bow, instantly rushing in front of Oars.
In mid-air, the greatsword swung, carving out countless sharp and dazzling flashes of sword light.
The sharp blade ruthlessly sliced into the demon's body.
In the blink of an eye, he had carved dozens of massive, bone-deep wounds into Oars' enormous frame.
After a round of slashes, Nightmare Luffy casually tossed the greatsword aside.
He tumbled nimbly in mid-air, his hands like iron pincers, firmly grabbing Oars' massive finger.
"Get down here!"
Accompanied by a violent roar,
the blue behemoth, fused with the strength of a hundred powerful warriors, exerted force from his waist and abdomen, actually completing an incredibly violent shoulder throw in mid-air!
Rumble————!!!
The mountain-like demon Oars was directly overturned by this irresistible monstrous strength, his entire body smashing heavily onto the hard ruins.
The entire Thriller Bark seemed to tremble violently under this strike.
"It's not over yet!"
Nightmare Luffy landed steadily, his fists instantly turning into countless afterimages.
"Gum-Gum Gatling!"
The ultimate barrage, fusing the strength of a hundred people with Luffy's own rubber constitution, poured down like a violent storm.
The dense heavy punches, accompanied by the whistling sound of tearing air, fell frantically on Oars' face, chest, and abdomen.
Every punch contained the power to split mountains and crush rocks.
Oars was beaten so badly he had no power to fight back, letting out scream after scream.
And Moria, in the cockpit in his abdomen, was shaken senseless by the terrifying vibratory force.
The sturdy cockpit armor finally shattered completely under this violent barrage.
This one-sided, frantic beating lasted for a full ten minutes.
Not a single whole stone remained in the ruins, and Oars' massive body was riddled with holes from the beating.
Nightmare Luffy raised his right fist high, preparing to deliver the final blow to this ancient demon.
However, at the very moment that would decide victory or defeat,
his body suddenly stiffened, and his raised fist stopped dead in mid-air.
Time was up.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One hundred black shadows, like a flood bursting through a dam, erupted frantically from Luffy's wide-open mouth.
They turned into streaks of black meteors, soaring into the sky and flying toward the horizon.
As the shadows left, Luffy's muscular blue body instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, rapidly shriveling and shrinking back to its original thin form.
Having endured a terrifying power far beyond his body's capacity, Luffy's eyes instantly rolled back, his limbs hung limply, and he fell into a deep coma from extreme exhaustion.
On the ruins of a nearby clock tower,
Tatsuya stood quietly.
His right eye was temporarily blinded due to the backlash of releasing Amaterasu, and it was currently tightly shut.
But he still used his deep left eye to watch the developments on the battlefield without blinking.
Seeing Luffy fall, the corners of Tatsuya's mouth curled up slightly.
He softly said to Robin and Nami behind him:
"I'll go drag that reckless idiot back.
"The remaining cleanup work is up to us."
Before his voice had even faded, Chakra erupted beneath Tatsuya's feet, and his Body Flicker Technique was instantly activated.
His figure turned into a bolt of black lightning, tracing a perfect arc in mid-air as he easily caught the falling Luffy.
Tatsuya securely protected the unconscious Captain, then with a few leaps and bounds, retreated to the edge of the battlefield.
Roar————!!!
Just then, a desperate roar came once again from the center of the ruins.
Even though he had been beaten out of human shape and countless bones were shattered,
Oars, relying on the zombie's lack of pain and the unreasonable characteristics of being 'dead',
actually wobbled as he propped himself up on the broken ground. His massive body bit by bit stood up again, letting out an angry roar.
However, facing this monster that seemed as if it could never be killed,
several scarred figures stood up resolutely from various corners of the ruins.
Zoro gripped his sword hilts, Sanji lit his lighter, Franky charged his arms, Usopp drew his slingshot, and Chopper entered his combat form.
Though they were covered in blood, their clothes in tatters, and their stamina at its limit,
at this moment, every one of their eyes was frighteningly bright, burning with an unyielding fighting spirit.
Chopper's keen gaze swept over Oars' massive body, and he immediately shouted out the enemy's weaknesses:
"Everyone, listen!
"His right knee was previously softened by high temperatures!
"Plus, from Luffy's beating just now, his spine is also heavily injured; the structure is very fragile!"
"Understood!"
The coordination of the Straw Hat crew was displayed to its fullest at this moment.
"Coup de Vent: Freeze!"
Franky's arms slammed together, creating a powerful cold-air compression cannon.
Accompanied by a deafening roar, a freezing air current capable of hardening everything erupted.
It instantly froze Oars' lower body solid within a thick layer of ice.
"Hissatsu: Fire Bird Star!"
"Diable Jambe!"
The slingshot in Usopp's hand was pulled into a full moon, and a blazing firebird whistled forth.
At the same time, Sanji turned into a burning meteor, his right foot kicking down with extreme heat.
The attacks of the two accurately hit the frozen area.
The terrifying temperature difference between extreme heat and extreme cold met in an instant, producing destructive physical force that completely tore and destroyed the demon's tough muscle fibers.
Oars' massive body immediately lost its balance and fell backward.
Seeing this, Robin crossed her hands elegantly in front of her chest.
"Cien Fleur!"
Countless giant arms emerged on Oars' body like tough vines, firmly grabbing the demon's joints. They forcibly controlled his falling body, completely exposing his damaged spine in mid-air.
"It's up to you! Zoro!"
Zoro took a deep breath, biting the Wado Ichimonji in his mouth and tightly gripping the Sandai Kitetsu and Yubashiri in his hands.
In his beast-like sharp eye, a heaven-startling sword intent erupted.
His legs exerted sudden force, and Zoro leapt high into the air, heading straight for Oars' massive back.
"Nine mountains and eight seas constitute one world! A thousand of them form a'Small Chiliocosm'! Triple that, and there is nothing I cannot cut!"
Zoro spun rapidly in mid-air, and a terrifying dark-red slash erupted from the three swords.
"Three Sword Style Secret Technique: Daiken Sekai!!!"
A brilliant slash cut through the night sky.
The dark-red sword light followed Oars' already heavily injured spine and sliced in with precision.
Crack!
The crisp sound of bone breaking echoed in the night sky.
The core spine that supported the ancient demon's massive body was completely severed by this world-destroying strike!
Rumble————!!!
Losing the support of his spine, the ancient demon Oars could no longer maintain his standing position.
Like a collapsing mountain, he crashed into the ruins, kicking up a cloud of dust.
This time, he completely lost the ability to move.
The massive demon had finally met his end.
