Strongest Swordsman In One Piece - Chapter 233
Neither El nor Whitebeard is a peace-loving person, or it can also be said that every super-powerhouse is actually a fighting maniac who is high and eager to fight someone of their level.
El, who wants to see how far he is from the ceiling of this world is like this and so is the invincible and lonely Whitebeard whose old rivals are either dead, caught, or already retired from the sea.
As the battlefield was transferred from the Moby Dick to the medium-sized island, El immediately uses the power of his devil fruit awakening at the very beginning in order to test how much combat power Whitebeard has left from his prime.
Yes, his first shot contains the power of devil fruit awakening.
For those Awakened, devil fruit awakening is undoubtedly the last resort, a hole card that will not be used until the last moment.
However for El, who was born with a monstrous physique, devil fruit awakening is at most more expensive than Hakoku Sovereignty, and it is the same level as the conqueror entanglement.
Although with El’s current physical strength, if he constantly uses the power of devil fruit awakening, he can only last for a few hours at most, unlike other battles that can last for several days and a night.
However, just a few hours is more than enough for El.
The battle between Luffy and Kaido, both mythical Zoan fruit users did not last for a day, so the battle between El, a natural monster, and Whitebeard, a mutated human also didn’t need to last for more than a day to determine the outcome.
After all, they are not logia devil fruit users, without elementalization that would become extremely disgusting after incorporating observation haki.
As El entered a special state, the invisible power of the Float-Float fruit suddenly turned into a spherical area that no matter how powerful someone’s sight and observation haki is, they cannot detect it.
After a while, the entire medium-sized island began to vibrate violently and the invisible wind began to materialize and try to turn into a giant tornado.
It’s a pity that the tornado has not yet formed, and a shock wave that submerge the heavens and earth shattered the rotating wind, turning them into hurricanes that swept in four directions.
The next second, the seawater rose up, and like an ocean wave, it slapped down towards Whitebeard, then a terrifying shockwave once again swept from the island as the center and traveled for unknown miles.
The originally calm sea seemed to be enraged by this terrifying force as the sea began to become violent, and tons of seawater formed huge waves one after another as they charged toward the medium-sized island.
Tons of seawater washed up on the shore and then they retreated to continue to charge up all over the island as they try to sink the island into the sea.
It’s a pity that when they crossed the coast and spread deeper toward the center of the island, an equally violent shockwave and hurricane containing haki on it, pushed them back.
Occasionally, even the ground seemed to come alive as it suddenly liquefied and changed its shape to block the tons of seawater that were advancing.
“Is their battle exaggerated?”
“Another shockwave as well a hurricane has been reaching here, is that kid already using the power of devil fruit awakening?”
“The firepower is so fierce at the beginning, Pops won’t be fooling around with that kid right?”
“How long has it been since Pops was so happy?”
“I think it’s already been more than ten years. No wonder he kept us away from that island. I’m afraid he has long been wanting to have a good fight!”
In few dozen miles away from the medium-sized island, on the deck of Moby Dick, Division Commanders and other powerhouses who were awake under the conqueror haki looked at the medium-sized island ahead that was getting smaller and smaller with their faces were full of shock.
Even if they are separated by dozens of miles, they can still feel the Float-Float Fruit and Quake-Quake Fruit collision, because at this time at the Moby Dick just like the time when the conqueror haki entwined and collided, the super-large ship kept shaking.
The seawater seems to flow in reverse and the Moby Dick, which has a double-digit number of a main and auxiliary gun, is as fast as an ordinary ship.
In fact, the sea is indeed flowing backward, as they seem to be attracted by a magnetic field, they constantly surge towards the medium-sized island.
This led to the fact that Moby Dick is now sailing against the flow and if it weren’t for the huge hull, and the double-digit canvas, the ship might not be able to move forward, and instead, it will be swept in by the current back to the medium island.
The confrontation between the two strategic level devil fruit is indeed undoubtedly at the level of annihilation.
Except for Marco, who can fly, even Jozu who can transform his body into a diamond is not qualified to watch this battle.
In order to make his Pops have a good time fighting after many years and to be not distracted and leading to him getting injured by El, Marco took the initiative to leave with his brother who wanted to go to the island to watch the battle.
After sending the Moby Dick out of El and Whitebeard’s fighting range, Marco would return to the medium island alone.
However, his return was not to watch the battle but to prevent his Pops from being seriously injured during or after the battle, because as the ship doctor, he was able to treat him as soon as possible.
In this regard, although the Division Commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates feel pity, they are also very reasonable.
Only Teach, who was hiding at the back of the crowd, looked unwilling.
Like Marco, as one of the spectators of Roger and Whitebeard’s peak showdown, Teach is undoubtedly the one who most wanted to stay on the battlefield to watch the battle between the two current strongest pirates and the usage of their devil fruit, because of his strength and his status as a non-devil fruit eater, even if El and Whitebeard finally sank the island into the sea, he is confident that he will be able to escape unscathed.
But in that case, his hidden strength for many years will be exposed, although he really wanted to sneak back to the medium-sized island, however for his own ambition, Teach still resisted his urge.
