"He still blocked it, huh?" Kenji frowned slightly.
He thought for a moment, and nodded, saying, "Given Whitebeard's strength, it's normal for him to block it..."
"[Conqueror's Haki - God's Domain] needs to be upgraded."
"Too bad, there haven't been many assignable upgrade rewards lately…"
Just as Kenji secretly pulled up his system tasks to check the reward—
In the distance opposite, Whitebeard suddenly raised his naginata.
Rumble!!!
As Whitebeard unleashed his Tremor-Tremor Fruit power, a fist-sized white vibrating light sphere instantly appeared on the blade of his naginata.
And in the blink of an eye, this small light sphere rapidly expanded to the size of a human head, and continued to grow, eventually enveloping the entire blade.
Whitebeard's naginata 'Murakumogiri' is extremely massive. When stood upright, its height even exceeds Whitebeard himself.
And Whitebeard's height is over six meters, so the length of this 'Murakumogiri' is at least eight meters or more.
Just the blade alone has the length of a person's height.
At this moment, the vibrating light sphere completely enveloped one or two meters of the blade, so one can imagine the size of the light sphere.
Normally, when Whitebeard uses his fist to unleash air tremors, the vibrating light sphere only envelops his fist, spreading out to the size of a 2 or 3 feet.
Even so, a single vibrating punch like that has enough power to destroy a small island.
Now, with Whitebeard creating such a massive vibrating light sphere, how terrifying would the energy contained within it be?
Soon, Whitebeard himself provided the answer.
"Gah!"
Whitebeard raised his naginata high above his head. After the vibrating light sphere expanded to its maximum extent, he brought it down with monstrous strength.
His arm muscles bulged, and his eyes were wide with fury, clearly putting all his strength into it.
Crack!!!
The next moment, the naginata, enveloped by the vibrating light sphere, tore through space, carving out countless spiderweb-like spatial cracks along its path.
The blade, carrying an unstoppable momentum that cleaved through everything, heavily struck the ground.
Yes, Whitebeard's slash directly struck the ground at his feet. He did not rush forward to engage Kenji in close combat.
After all, the previous battle had already made him realize that he would definitely be at a disadvantage in close-quarters combat, so he simply began to try long-range attack methods.
And the vibrating power before him was one of his strongest methods.
Crack—Rumble!!!
The immense vibrating force acted upon the air and space, and terrifying energy instantly stirred up visible waves of vibrating ripples in the air, like giant waves.
The vibrating waves were imbued with the slash, merging into a unique vibrating slash.
At the same time, where the naginata struck, the earth cracked open, and a chasm rapidly spread towards Kenji.
Air and earth, the same power, burst forth in two forms, ultimately converging at Kenji's position, achieving an attack power greater than the sum of its parts.
"He wants to demolish Wano Country." Kenji said with a grin.
If it were anyone else, like the other two Legendary Pirates, Roger or Shiki, Kenji didn't think they could destroy a country.
It wasn't because Roger and Shiki weren't strong enough, but mainly because their abilities were different.
If those two wanted to demolish a country, they'd probably cough up some blood—from exhaustion.
With Whitebeard, it's very different.
This Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability seems to have been born for the purpose of destroying the world. Demolishing a country is effortless for him.
"Sometimes, I really want to try these strange Devil Fruit abilities…" Kenji's eyes flickered.
Then, without haste, he reached out and took a sword from his waist.
To be precise, it was a samurai sword, given to him as a special gift by Oden a couple of days ago when he led him around sightseeing.
The samurai sword itself was nothing extraordinary, just a very ordinary sword.
However, because it was forged by a Wano Country swordsmith, the quality of the sword was quite good, capable of rivaling those ordinary famous swords.
At this moment, after drawing the sword, Kenji swung it a few times, still feeling it wasn't very comfortable to use.
"Forget it, I'll just make do."
At this moment, Kenji hadn't brought the giant sword given to him by the Elbaph Giant Tribe, so he only had this samurai sword on hand.
However, for him, even with just an ordinary human sword, he could still activate the Giant Sword Technique.
After all, he had long since mastered that special sword technique.
The next moment, Kenji gripped the hilt with both hands, swung the blade, and adopted a slashing stance.
At the same time, on the blade, a dense, top-tier Conqueror's Haki emitted a dark red glow, flowing along the cutting edge.
As Kenji continued to release Conqueror's Haki, not only the blade, but even his entire body was enveloped in a dark red glow.
"Elbaph Spear…"
As Kenji was building up his attack, his eyes suddenly flashed, and he temporarily changed his move, unleashing an even more powerful slash.
"Ikoku!"
Zzzzt!!!
As the blade slashed out, space seemed to tear apart, leaving a mysterious dark trace in the air, like a scar where space had ripped open, with endless arcs raging around it.
And the 'Baguо', originally a combined technique, was now used by Kenji alone with a single weapon.
As for its power...
The slash was incredibly fast, covering a thousand meters in an instant, colliding with the vibrating slash unleashed by Whitebeard.
Rumble—Boom!!!
Because both slashes were imbued with Conqueror's Haki, they produced actual collision effects even before truly making contact.
From a distance, the two slashes erupted with immense power, and for a time, a sharp aura surged violently, carving deep marks across the earth.
Just as the two slashes were in a stalemate, the vibrating power within Whitebeard's slash surged out all at once.
From afar, it looked like waves, continuously impacting Kenji's slash.
However, due to the presence of Conqueror's Haki, the powerful vibrating waves were always prevented from truly impacting, not even touching the slash.
In fact, with the power of this vibrating energy, if it had truly touched the slash, its terrifying might would have shattered it.
Perhaps Whitebeard initially had a similar idea.
After so many years as a pirate, his combat experience was very rich.
Unfortunately, in the face of the flowing Conqueror's Haki, the vibrating force was stopped.
