Since Rosen created the Armament Haki technique of transforming vapor into form, and formed Susanoo with a massive amount of Armament Haki, and this power became known to the world, the Marine Headquarters, the Shichibukai, the Yonko and the Revolutionary Army, and even the World Government all regard Susanoo as a legendary power.
Its attack can cleave through all things in the universe with a single slash, and can shatter meteorites with a single arrow.
It can render swordsmanship, physical skills, Haki, and Devil Fruit abilities powerless.
Despite its enormous size, it possesses unparalleled speed and the ability to fly.
In addition, when using Susanoo, one can combine it with swordsmanship, physical techniques, Devil Fruit abilities, and Conqueror's Haki to push the power of Susanoo to its limit.
However, during the battle on Hachinosu, Ochoku used his Warp-Warp Fruit to directly transfer himself to the area where Rosen was located.
The interior of the pentagon-shaped crystal embedded in Susanoo's brow.
In this way, he achieved the ability to break Susanoo without actually breaking it.
It ignored Susanoo's all-encompassing attack, Susanoo's indestructible defense, and even its lightning-fast speed.
after all.
Ochoku is currently in the same area as Rosen, so Rosen can't possibly manipulate Susanoo and slash at his head, can he?
Similarly.
It's impossible for Rosen to manipulate Susanoo to shoot the Haki arrow towards his forehead.
Whether it's wielding a knife or shooting an arrow, the first thing to be destroyed is oneself.
This moment.
Ochoku seemed to have struck at the heart of the matter, rendering Rosen's Susanoo meaningless, leaving it with its back wide open and unable to do anything.
Then, quietly wait for the blade in his hand, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, to unleash its earth-shattering power and slash towards his neck.
Bang
A thunderous roar resounded, and streaks of scarlet lightning burst forth from the pentagon-shaped crystal between Susanoo's eyebrows.
Boom
As Ochoku's longsword slashed at Rosen's nape, a sphere crackling with jagged lightning formed around the blade, unleashing an overwhelming Haki.
"Didn't expect that?"
"Your Susanoo, which you were so proud of and which looked down on the world, was actually broken by me in this way."
"You can only blame yourself for being too arrogant, daring to attack Hachinosu alone. Otherwise, in a one-on-one fight, even if I could use the Warp-Warp Fruit to teleport inside Susanoo, you would still be able to use your abilities correctly."
Ochoku gripped the sword with both hands, continuously releasing Conqueror's Haki from his body, and slashed at Rosen's nape:
"He must use the power of his Zanpakutō to make tens of thousands of pirates fight each other, while also facing an attack from Yonko and his lieutenant."
"Even I have to admit that if you were to take on a Yonko crew one-on-one, neither Rocks nor Roger could possibly do better than you do now, even if they were resurrected."
"Unfortunately, you are still going to die!"
Ochoku's voice, besides being filled with murderous intent, was also full of satisfaction and exhilaration.
Although the Ochoku Pirates suffered heavy losses in this battle.
Whether it's rank-and-file personnel or officers, the losses are severe. However, killing the strongest Marine in a millennium and eliminating the next admiral will undoubtedly further enhance his reputation.
I wouldn't dare say I surpass Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world, but I certainly surpass Kaido and Big Mom.
At that time, with an even greater reputation, they will be able to recruit more pirates as subordinates in a very short period of time.
Even if the pirate crew's overall strength cannot be restored to what it was before Rosen landed on Hachinosu in a short time, it is not enough to remove him from the list of the Yonko because he lost almost all of his subordinates.
Clang clang
Just as Ochoku was basking in his triumph, declaring the war over with the air of a victor, Rosen's neck, slashed by Ochoku's Haki blade, slowly twisted backward, revealing a scarlet eye that coldly glanced at Ochoku standing behind him.
With its fragile nape, it withstood the powerful slash of a Yonko at his peak. Besides Kaido and Big Mom, there are also monsters with terrifying physiques like Sakazuki. Anyone who comes here will be severely injured, or even lose their fighting ability instantly.
Just like Kozuki Oden, who was hit by Kaido's club, his head was smashed open, and he collapsed in defeat.
Ochoku had been planning this for a long time. His strike, combining the power of the Warp-Warp Fruit with the power of Conqueror's Haki, was no weaker than the blow Kaido delivered to Kozuki Oden in human form.
However,
Rosen appeared completely unharmed, as if he wasn't the one whose neck had been slashed by the Yonko's Conqueror's Infused Blade.
"you!"
Rosen's turn of his head and his eye contact with Ochoku immediately silenced the latter's arrogant laughter.
How could that be?
"Impossible!"
"Why are you completely unharmed?"
Ochoku and Rosen exchanged a glance, and their smiles instantly froze.
Especially when his peripheral vision fell on the back of the other person's neck, which had been severed by his own blade.
Not only was his neck not severed, but he was also beheaded with a single blow, yet there wasn't even a trace of skin damage at the point of the strike.
This was a strike imbued with Conqueror's Haki!
Having been one of the Yonko for so long, he had never seen a human neck harder than a knife imbued with Conqueror's Haki.
"Neither Big Mom nor Kaido could possibly survive my attack unscathed!"
Ochoku's eyes widened, his scarlet eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.
Speaking of monstrous physiques, he had seen two.
Kaido and Big Mom.
One is indestructible, the other is a steel balloon.
No matter how strong the defense is, it will still be breached and injured when facing an attack from a general-level expert.
Especially since he's now attacking the back of the neck.
Faced with Ochoku's astonished and disbelieving questioning, Rosen did not speak, but merely turned his head to glance at him while muttering to himself.
"Bankai."
"Kamishini no Yari".
At this moment, Ochoku, whose heart was filled with shock, did not notice that the short knife in Rosen's hand had been turned around at some point, with the blade pointing behind his back. Then it turned into a streak of black light that pierced through everything, like a laser beam. First, it tore open the cuff, and then it silently disappeared into his chest.
Phew
Ochoku is neither Big Mom nor Kaido; he doesn't possess their indestructible physiques.
Faced with the sudden, black lightning-like blade, his chest was ripped open and his body was completely pierced through, entering from the front and exiting from the back.
It was as if a bolt of black lightning had pierced through his body, tearing through the sky.
As Ochoku was pierced by the Kamishini no Yari.
The roles of offense and defense have shifted, and the outcome of the battle has been reversed.
"ah!"
Ochoku's pupils constricted, and hideous blood vessels burst forth from around his eyeballs. In the instant he let out a painful scream, a gush of scarlet blood spurted out.
call out
Feeling excruciating pain sweeping through his body from the wound, he lost all his previous arrogance and complacency. He didn't even dare to stay in Susanoo's forehead any longer and immediately activated the Warp-Warp Fruit.
The moment the black blade pierced through his body in a flash, he vanished from the spiritual crystal of Susanoo.
With the help of the Warp-Warp Fruit, he could freely enter and exit Susanoo's body.
In an instant, it moved to a position about 500 meters behind Susanoo.
Phew
As soon as he regained his footing, a spurt of blood gushed from Ochoku's pierced chest as the blade left his body.
"Damn it!"
"How could he possess a physical defense that surpasses both Kaido and Big Mom?"
"Whether it's Conqueror's Haki attacking from the outside or Armament Haki causing damage from the inside, he can not only defend against them all, but he can also launch a counterattack at the same time."
Ochoku's face was ashen, and his body staggered and twitched a few times.
He thought he could use the Warp-Warp Fruit to move inside Susanoo, and take advantage of Rosen's single-handed battle against the entire Ochoku Pirates, leaving him no time to deal with him, and then swiftly and decisively kill the general.
And what was the result?
His long-planned attack failed, and to make matters worse, he was pierced through the body by Rosen's Kamishini no Yari, thus reversing the entire situation.
