Chapter 169 - 169

How dare you look down on me, you rabble!"

Prometheus seemed to sense the anger in Mama's heart; the flames on his body suddenly flared, and Charlotte Linlin grabbed him, throwing him directly at the Sun Pirates.

As a flame with a soul, Prometheus can actively increase his temperature, even comparable to the Flare-Flare Fruit.

A giant pillar of fire suddenly appeared, shooting straight towards the pirate ship.

The high temperature it emitted caused the seawater below to show signs of boiling.

Seeing that the pirate ship could not turn in time to avoid the pillar of fire, Tiger could only close his eyes in despair.

Just then.

A black lightning bolt from the void struck Prometheus.

"Ah!!!"

He screamed, frozen in mid-air.

Then a hand grabbed him, and Conqueror's Haki, like a tide, engulfed him.

Chu Yang toyed with Prometheus, looking down at Charlotte Linlin.

He suddenly became interested in the Soul-Soul Fruit.

The Soul-Soul Fruit, which grants objects souls and creates life almost unconditionally, combined with Six Paths Sage's Yin-Yang Release, seemed to be able to form even more terrifying abilities.

It's just a pity…

"Fearing the sea is a very concerning weakness…"

Chu Yang shook his head, deciding to put this idea aside for now and revisit it when a solution was found. However, at the moment, he was no longer thinking of killing Charlotte Linlin.

Killing her and then trying to find the Soul-Soul Fruit would be like searching for a needle in a haystack; it would be better to imprison her and use her as an experimental subject.

Charlotte Linlin shivered. She found that Chu Yang's gaze was as if he was looking at an interesting toy.

"Rude fellow!"

Charlotte Linlin was very angry, but the look of apprehension on her face lingered. "Such powerful Haoshoku, to be able to grab Prometheus with bare hands. Among the people I know, only a few can do that."

Prometheus, constantly whipped by the Haoshoku lightning, seemed very pained, continuously calling for Mama to save him.

"You're too noisy, get lost!"

Chu Yang threw him back.

Prometheus turned into a flash of fire and flew into Charlotte Linlin's hand, clinging to her like a child, complaining of his grievances.

"He actually returned Prometheus?"

"What is this guy planning?"

Charlotte Linlin became even more wary; she didn't believe Chu Yang was being kind.

"I'm only giving you one chance. If you lose, you stay forever!"

As he spoke, Chu Yang's Haoshoku surged wildly, and dark clouds gathered over Wano Country, creating an incredibly terrifying oppressive force.

Just standing under the dark clouds, Charlotte Linlin felt Chu Yang's immense power and dared not be negligent, directly pulling out her ultimate move.

Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon—the power of the three combined into one.

Flames and lightning wrapped around the sword, coupled with Charlotte Linlin's powerful Conqueror's Haki, creating a mighty aura for a time.

Clashing Sword!

The Haoshoku of the two unleashed without restraint, colliding fiercely. The sea churned, forming giant tsunamis, while the sky was torn in half.

Chu Yang took a deep breath, circulating Source Breathing to its extreme, with sunlight and moonlight flowing in and out of his nose and mouth, rotating repeatedly.

He donned the Tailed Beast Cloak, the light it emitted like a dazzling small sun.

Charlotte Linlin's figure suddenly grew taller, as if inflated, transforming into a robust giant in an instant.

Dark purple bones also appeared around Chu Yang, protecting him, and then various tissues continuously emerged, gradually forming a samurai-like human figure.

Susanoo!

The Tailed Beast Cloak quickly covered Susanoo's surface, evolving it into a different form.

Three heads, six arms, and a pair of wings on its back.

Its entire armor materialized.

Seeing this, Charlotte Linlin dared not continue to build up power and unleashed a full-strength slash.

"Clashing Sword: Ikoku!"

A giant shockwave nearly ten times thicker than before, carrying intense lightning and flames, shot towards Chu Yang.

This strike even illuminated the sea beneath the dark clouds.

Facing the terrifying Ikoku, Susanoo's six arms grabbed at the void, and six light swords appeared simultaneously.

The power of the sun and moon continuously flowed between the six light swords, and their radiance spread, forming a light curtain in front of him.

Ikoku struck the light curtain without causing a strong impact; instead, it seemed to be melted away, like snow under a clear sky.

The light curtain continuously pushed forward, devouring all life in its path.

Zeus, Prometheus, and Napoleon, the three special Homies Charlotte Linlin was so proud of, also could not escape their doom and were directly dissolved.

Charlotte Linlin tried to resist, condensing Armament Haki on her body, but it had no effect.

Her body felt as if it had fallen into a meat grinder, every inch of her skin enduring unspeakable pain.

The moment Charlotte Linlin fell into a coma, Chu Yang stopped attacking. Susanoo held her in his hand and turned to look at Doflamingo, who had been watching the show.

Doflamingo was dripping with cold sweat.

He now deeply regretted being involved in this matter; Chu Yang's combat power surpassed his imagination.

He had not seen Pirate King Roger's battle, but he dared to guarantee that no matter how strong Roger was, he would not be stronger than the person before him.

"I think there might be a misunderstanding between us! I am not an ally of these people."

Doflamingo tried his best to explain, but Chu Yang's gaze grew colder and colder, sending shivers down his spine.

"I've met many villains, but few are as wicked as you."

"Making kind people who love each other slaughter each other and finding pleasure in it—such a twisted taste is truly unbearable."

Hearing this, Doflamingo turned and fled without hesitation, pushing the String-String Fruit's ability to its limit. Countless threads shot out, connecting to the clouds, forming an escape ladder.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Enveloped by immense fear, Doflamingo cursed and fled frantically.

Just as Doflamingo thought he was about to escape, an arrow formed from dark purple energy pierced through his chest from behind, puncturing his heart.

Doflamingo suddenly froze, looking down at the fist-sized hole in his chest, where only a small piece of his heart was still beating.

Am I going to die?

Am I just going to die like this?!

Filled with grief and indignation, Doflamingo's consciousness grew increasingly blurry. He no longer even had the strength to roar in anger, only to gradually fall into endless darkness, accompanied by his unwillingness.

As Doflamingo's body fell into the sea, almost all the remnants of the Queen Mama Chanter were locked down with Sea Stone.

A small portion of them chose to jump into the sea voluntarily, hoping for a sliver of survival.

But they were clearly not smart enough.

To try such a trick right under the Fishman's nose?

Jinbe led his companions to dive to the bottom of the sea, capturing the escaping pirates and bringing back Doflamingo's body, as well as the unconscious King.

When the latter woke up, his hands and feet were already shackled with Sea Stone.

When he was being sent to the quarry, King, unwilling to give up, asked Chu Yang about Kaido's whereabouts. Upon learning the fact that Kaido had died, King's face turned ashen, and the life in his eyes instantly vanished.

More often than not, he regarded Kaido as a father and brother figure, rather than just a Captain.

Chu Yang, interested in the Soul-Soul Fruit, skillfully set up a laboratory in Flying Flow Castle and acquired Queen from the Revolutionary Army to serve as his assistant.

Long did not object, but he was concerned that Chu Yang might go astray, so he secretly found Tiger, and the two had a conversation.

Although Tiger didn't know what Chu Yang was planning, he absolutely believed that Chu Yang would not do anything bad and would not become the next tyrannical Sea Emperor.

Perhaps influenced by Tiger's resolute attitude, Long temporarily put the matter aside and fully dedicated himself to more important things.

The Revolutionary Army's bounties against the World Government and the Marine, along with the subversive news of Kaido and Charlotte Linlin's defeat, instantly swept across the entire world!

In Wano Country, at Flying Flow Castle, Chu Yang stood on the top floor of the pavilion, looking at the laboratory undergoing extensive renovations, lost in thought.

The greatest achievement in human Devil Fruit research in recent years has been Artificial Devil Fruits.

The creator of the world's first Artificial Devil Fruit was Dr. Vegapunk of the former government science unit.

Queen, Judge, and Caesar—the research directions of these three individuals were like three branches, with their origin being Dr. Vegapunk's Bloodline Factor theory.

If possible, Chu Yang hoped to directly capture Vegapunk to help him with his research.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find him, so he could only settle for the next best thing and gather Judge and Caesar.

He wanted these three to work together to see if they could make any progress.

Chu Yang himself would also join the research, and he also had Magic Chu Yang and Marvel Chu Yang behind him, whose research capabilities were no worse than those three.

Caesar's laboratory was in Punk Hazard.

After the failure of the Donquixote Family and Vinsmoke Family's battle, Judge led the mobile Germa Kingdom away from North Blue, wandering the seas. It would take time to get information on their whereabouts.

These matters could be left to the Revolutionary Army.

Chu Yang had helped them secure such a good stronghold, and as allies, they should show their appreciation. Unilateral freeloading was not a good habit.

Long also showed great cooperation.

It didn't matter if he truly trusted Chu Yang.

In a normal cooperative relationship, reciprocity is the most basic thing.

Since gaining the support of Kozuki Hiyori and the samurai, the Revolutionary Army did not need to expend too much manpower to protect their stronghold.

They were even less worried about external invaders, because the enemy couldn't even get past Chu Yang's Flying Flow Castle.
