"White Ghost!"
"I will burn you to ashes with Prometheus's fire!"
Charlotte Linlin let out a tremendous roar, then stomped fiercely on the giant black cloud beneath her, gripping the hilt of her massive pirate scimitar tightly.
These two special artifacts, infused with souls and life by the Soul-Soul Fruit, displayed menacing faces similar to their master's, simultaneously emitting a terrifying, sinister laugh.
In an instant.
Clad in a pink dress and standing on a dark thundercloud, the unrivaled pirate queen rampaged across the sea!
"Zeus! Thunder!"
With a furious shout from Charlotte Linlin, the thundercloud Zeus erupted with boundless light, enveloping BIG MOM and the surrounding area in an almost blinding white lightning. Her massive, frenzied figure became vaguely visible.
Under this catastrophic thunder, Charlotte Linlin exploded with a speed comparable to the Glint-Glint Fruit at its peak!
"Napoleon! Attack!"
Bathed in the radiant lightning, she gripped her giant pirate scimitar, also wrapped in endless lightning, with both hands. Gathering all her strength, she unleashed a ferocious thunder slash straight at Adrian!
"Emperor's Sword: Thunder Blade!"
As the thunderous slash was about to strike Adrian, the spirit pressure lightsaber in his hand suddenly extended by half its length. His right arm bulged with veins, exploding with the Dragon power, and he countered with a ferocious diagonal slash!
The spirit pressure on the pale lightsaber mixed with Armament Haki, bursting forth with an aura of complete annihilation, instilling a chilling dread in anyone nearby!
Asura's Killing Blade!
Thunder and spirit pressure collided violently, like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. The space above the sea erupted with intense heat and powerful distortions, leading to a massive, dazzling light explosion. The deafening blast and shockwaves spread instantly, making the ears ring and the vision blur!
Even the clouds in the sky were shattered and scattered at that moment!!
At the center of this terrifying explosion, both combatants' long hair fluttered, and their clothes billowed, yet they remained unharmed.
Charlotte Linlin's innate "Iron Balloon" ability rendered her impervious to such impacts and high temperatures.
And Adrian, with his maxed-out "Ghost Form," paid no heed to physical attacks lacking Armament Haki.
"White Ghost! You… you're already a great swordsman!"
With her vast combat experience, Charlotte Linlin immediately sensed the astonishing increase in strength of the "Little Brat" who had been evading her a year ago using only his Devil Fruit powers!
Undoubtedly, with the power level Adrian was currently displaying, she was the only one to counter him in the entire Totto Land!
Even Katakuri, with his mastery of three types of Haki and the awakened Mochi-Mochi Fruit, could probably only just manage...
Damn it!
Why couldn't I make such an excellent husband mine?!
With this thought, the anger and fury in Charlotte Linlin's heart grew even more. She stomped on the soft thundercloud beneath her and shouted, "Zeus! Speed me up and take me higher!"
Facing the White Ghost, Charlotte Linlin had no intention of summoning Prometheus.
Through their previous battles, Charlotte Linlin had gathered most of his ability information.
That special physique, completely immune to all physical attacks, made Prometheus's flames, capable of burning mountains and boiling seas, lose their brilliance!
Moreover, the White Ghost possessed a unique energy capable of inflicting significant damage on homies.
If Prometheus recklessly used his flames, he might suffer irreparable harm instead!
In a fight against the White Ghost, she could only rely on the three types of Haki and her combat experience!
The thundercloud rushed forward!
Enraged and dissatisfied, Charlotte Linlin suddenly raised her cutlass again. The massive pirate cutlass had inexplicably extended several meters, now towering over BIG MOM herself.
The menacing face of Napoleon appeared on the blade, which slashed horizontally with tremendous force.
"Emperor Sword: Thunderclap!"
Zeus called out to the clouds in the sky. Accompanied by the massive sword's descent, a thick lightning bolt struck down from the clouds, aiming to trap Adrian with the horizontal slash.
However, Adrian was a step ahead of Charlotte Linlin!
Holding his spiritual pressure light sword, Adrian flew up at a terrifying speed, evading the descending lightning bolt. He attacked Charlotte Linlin's sword mid-swing.
The brilliant clash of swords echoed through the sky, with sharp, energy-infused shockwaves spreading in all directions. Dazzling white spiritual pressure and bright lightning dissipated one by one in the air.
Charlotte Linlin felt the jarring impact of her attack being intercepted halfway through. Even with her vast battle experience, her right hand holding the Emperor Sword, Napoleon, was slightly pushed back.
A vulnerability appeared in her midsection!
Adrian's eyes gleamed red as he seized this hard-won opportunity. His right arm exploded with the power of a dragon, and his fierce slash, imbued with multiple layers of Armament Haki and highly concentrated spiritual pressure, struck towards BIG MOM!
"Thunder Fire Strike!"
Two red flashes appeared in Charlotte Linlin's eyes. She reacted instantly, her massive left hand forming a fist. Thundercloud Zeus's lightning and the flames from Sun Prometheus wrapped around her fist as she fiercely punched towards the black and white light sword.
Boom!!
Adrian's light sword and Charlotte Linlin's fist collided, erupting into a rolling white shockwave.
The two forces stalemated for a moment before the hastily attacking Charlotte Linlin was forced to retreat a few steps.
"The Emperor of Totto Land, said to wield ultimate power, doesn't seem so powerful now!"
Sweat glistened on Adrian's forehead, but his eyes were filled with an uncontrollable excitement.
This was his first unreserved clash with Charlotte Linlin. Despite various state enhancements and the power of the dragon, pushing back Charlotte Linlin was an undeniable fact!
After advancing to the rank of Grand Sword Hero, Adrian was able to engage with top-tier combatants of the sea, even without using ranged attacks like the Nether Cannon!
This indicated that Adrian's base strength was approaching the pinnacle of the sea's power hierarchy!
"Don't get cocky, White Ghost!"
Charlotte Linlin roared. Her massive, bulky body shrank slightly, and the black skullcap on her head turned to ash. The radiant sun transformed into intense flames, merging with her wildly flying fluffy pink hair.
In an instant, her hair turned into burning strands of flame, interwoven with dazzling white lightning. The Emperor Sword Napoleon's blade was also wrapped in flames and electricity.
BIG MOM entered her strongest state!
"This time, there won't be a tactical retreat like last time!"
Adrian also focused his spirit, his eyes burning with intense fighting spirit.
"I have already seen the color of victory!"
