"Thud!!!"
"Ahhh!!!"
With a terrifying punch, Edward Weevil's teeth flew out.
His ugly, fat face twisted and collapsed, and fresh blood splattered as he slammed directly into the ground!
The darkness, like an endless abyss, directly surged and compressed around him.
"Roar—"
A pitch-black, blood-red giant maw instantly swallowed Edward Weevil whole, crushing him relentlessly like a deep-sea vortex!
"Rumble..."
The darkness, harder than steel, was completely materialized, continuously grinding away at Edward Weevil's Armament Haki, utterly restraining him, making him unable to move.
The bizarre darkness was like a fiendish glutton, intent on devouring him whole, completely submerging him!
Outside this island.
Above the endlessly churning sea surface.
The massive War House hovered there.
Germa, Onigumo, and the others, all watched the fierce battle on this battlefield.
"Once you touch that strange black smoke, you can't use your Devil Fruit ability. He can actually do this without direct contact. Tsk, tsk, what an amazing guy!"
"Most ability users, against him now, probably have no chance of winning at all. Being able to escape would be considered lucky!..."
"Roar!!"
The darkness was violently ripped open.
But in an instant, it transformed into black smoke and spiraled upwards.
"Bastard! Ah!!" Edward Weevil, covered in blood, roared loudly, filled with savage emotions. His sharp, fragmented blades danced like the wind, surging endlessly!
"Swish..."
A bloody light appeared, and the crimson figure, shrouded in darkness, flashed before him.
"What? Is this all the power you have?" Iyaji said with a sneer. His muscles tensed, pulsing, and his right fist violently slammed upwards.
"Boom!!"
Sparks flew!
His pitch-black fist violently smashed into the fragmented blade.
"Splat—"
At this moment, the endless darkness surged like a tide again, submerging the two once more.
"Damn it! Ah ah ah ah!!!" Edward Weevil, unable to unleash his Shockwave Fruit's ability, roared in rage, ferociously struggling.
"Slam!!", "Crack!!"...
His Haki-covered fist and the blade shrouded in Haki and dark armor continuously clashed together.
But with each clash, Edward Weevil was still forced back by that terrifying power, staggering constantly.
Unable to unleash the power of his Shockwave Fruit, even though he was still considered a monster, his strength probably had no impact whatsoever.
"Blood Shadow Slashing Blade!"
The bloody figure flashed, instantly appearing above Weevil.
"Hmph—" His pitch-black right leg directly tore through the atmosphere, seeming to cleave downwards like a giant axe!
"Thud!!"
Fierce winds wildly surged, and Weevil forcefully resisted this blow with both arms.
"Ah! So painful~~~ so painful~~~"
But his Haki-shrouded arms burned, making his vicious face grimace.
Even though his technological boots continuously sprayed airflow, his excessively obese body was still directly pressed to the ground by terrifying force.
"Swish!"
In a flash of lightning.
Iyaji's figure, like a ghost, appeared behind Weevil with lightning speed.
So fast it was unbelievable!
"Finger Pistol: Triple Organ Cannon!"
"Pop, pop..."
Sounds of piercing air roared incessantly. Terrifying force continuously burst forth.
"Crack crack..." Before Weevil could react, his entire body was directly hit by the violent impact. He was continuously struck in the back, blood splattering like petals.
"Wah ah..."
Weevil, his face covered in blood, his eyes bulging dramatically, vomited blood from his wide maw, slamming into the ceiling!
"Swish, swish, swish..."
The swirling darkness, shrouded in Haki, directly burst forth, binding his four limbs and pulling him towards the land submerged by the dark tide!
But because it was already darkness, it was impossible to tell what difference Armament Haki made when applied to it.
"Damn it! Let me go, I'm not fighting you anymore!!!"
"Ah!! I surrender!!!"
Weevil struggled desperately, roaring uncontrollably, feeling terrified!
This redhead bastard was even more terrifying than before. Every time they clashed head-on, it made his hands tingle!
And after this strange darkness bound him, he actually couldn't break free at all, nor could he use his Shockwave Fruit ability.
"You surrender? Is that right!"
Iyaji, expressionless, walked up to Weevil's face.
His cold gaze stared down at him.
And then—
He launched a punch!
"Thud!!!"
"Ahhh..."
Even with Haki defense, he was still struck until his nose bridge collapsed, his flesh and blood a blur.
Edward Weevil screamed miserably, tearing his heart and lungs out. At the same time, he struggled uncontrollably, tears streaming down his face: "I already surrendered, why are you still hitting me! Ahhh~~~"
"You surrender? Very good..."
Staring at Weevil, who was crying like a child, Iyaji revealed his pearly white teeth!
And then—
Just as Weevil thought he would be let go, another sinister iron fist slammed down!
"Thud!!!"
Fresh blood splattered, several teeth flew out, a shocking sight...
"Ah!! Bastard! You're killing me!!!"
Weevil, his face covered in fresh blood, looking somewhat terrifying, was both furious and terrified. He couldn't stop crying: "Didn't Mom say we're family? Why are you hitting me! Ahhh~~~"
"Thud!!!", "Thud!!!"
..."Ahhh!!! Stop it, ahhh!!!"
"Mom~~~ Mom~~~ Save me, the redhead bastard is bullying me! Ahhh~~~ I already surrendered!!!"
Weevil continued to scream miserably, even though his face was so disfigured he was unrecognizable. But this guy's vitality was extremely strong. Iyaji wasn't worried about killing him or completely crippling him at all.
Niji, Yonji, and the others, standing on the deck, all felt their scalps tingle and their hearts pound uncontrollably at the sight of Edward Weevil being completely crushed, utterly without resistance.
No matter how one described Edward Weevil, the existence of the former Marine Admiral "Black Arm" Zephyr was indisputable. Even if he couldn't compare to Iyaji and the original Whitebeard, even if he teamed up with Kizaru and Onigumo, they might not be his match. That monster-like strength was absolutely no mere facade.
But from the beginning of the battle until now, Iyaji had utterly suppressed the other party!
For a year, he had continuously undergone unimaginable, day-and-night, high-intensity gravity training. His body, bones, and internal organs had collapsed and been damaged countless times under 2.8 gravity, only to be repaired again and again. His physique had unknowingly strengthened to an incredible degree, and the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit had been fully developed. His strength had already undergone a qualitative transformation!
"Swish—"
The endless darkness began to contract.
Only the part that bound Edward Weevil remained. The broken and shattered earth was directly stained red with flowing fresh blood, making it somewhat chilling.
"Listen clearly to me. Next time I tell you to do something, you just need to obey like a dog and do your best to rush forward!!!"
Iyaji stared indifferently at Edward Weevil, whose face was so bloody and disfigured he was unrecognizable, his bones crushed. As his cold words fell, he mercilessly swung his fist again and slammed it down: "If you dare to not put in effort like last time, I'll directly castrate you!!!"
"Ahhh!!!"
