Five-colored threads!
His right hand suddenly grasped open, and five sharp threads instantly whipped out like venomous snakes!
Kuina squinted slightly, and her Observation Haki immediately turned on full blast.
In her perception, time seemed to slow down, making every deadly thread trajectory clearly visible.
Step Forward Slash!
Her figure flickered, and she dodged continuously as if teleporting, her speed surpassing Soru.
When she reappeared, she had evaded all the threads and somehow appeared behind Doflamingo, her gaze icy cold, as she swung her sword.
Not good!
Doflamingo's pupils contracted, and he hastily dodged aside, but his cheek and shoulder were still grazed with a blood mark.
Able to break through my defense?
She's also mastered Armament then...
Doflamingo wiped the blood off his cheek, his eyes narrowed slightly, realizing she had already mastered Dual-Colored Haki back in Paradise, along with impressive swordsmanship...
It seems he had underestimated this swordswoman's strength.
However...
This level is still not enough to challenge me!
Doflamingo flicked threads from his fingertips, attaching them to the clouds above, and his body suddenly lifted off, shooting into the sky.
"Hey!" Nami was watching intently and stomped her foot angrily when she saw this. "What is this, planning to escape already?"
"Escape?"
High above, Doflamingo snorted coldly.
What nonsense is that foolish girl spouting? How could he possibly choose to escape today?
It's just that at high altitude, he didn't need to worry about a sword master getting close. Only in this space could his Devil Fruit power be fully unleashed without restraint!
"Next, let me show you my true strength!"
Doflamingo's sinister voice suddenly resounded as he raised his right arm, his fingers pressing down suddenly!
"Descent of the Rascal Line!"
Five thick threads intertwined, with a piercing sound as they shot straight towards Kuina's head!
Sizzle—
In the subtle sound of air being torn apart, Kuina's pupils contracted slightly, she abandoned catching it head-on, and quickly retreated, avoiding the menacing strike.
Boom!
The missed threads still deeply embedded into the ground, carving out a terrifying trench more than ten meters deep.
Amidst the swirling dust, Kuina promptly stabilized her stance, her long sword illuminating her cold eyes, cutting out a snow-white arc.
"Steel Cutting Flash!"
A violent tornado suddenly rose from the ground, with a force of demolition, charging straight toward Doflamingo in the sky.
Wind-controlling swordsmanship? Unheard of, or is the opposite actually a Devil Fruit ability user?
Facing the aggressive attack, Doflamingo's eyebrows raised slightly.
He didn't expect that in the sky, the opponent would have such a bizarre sword technique threatening him.
But he wasn't too panicked, his fingers inclined forward, and countless transparent threads surged out, forming a giant web-like barrier in front of him.
"Spider Web · Wall!"
The threads rapidly extended, constructing a defense net with a diameter of hundreds of meters, densely covering the sky.
The tornado with its seemingly mighty momentum suddenly seemed small in front of the giant wall.
Boom!
The two collided, and after just a few moments of stalemate, the seemingly indestructible net unexpectedly broke, the threads disintegrating!
Although slightly weakened, the tornado continued unimpeded toward the net behind, wrapping down on him.
How could this be!
Doflamingo's pupils contracted sharply.
He knew well the toughness of the spider web wall; once fully extended, it was nearly unbreakable against such large-scale attacks.
Yet... it shattered so easily?
It can't be caught directly!
This tornado's power seems even more formidable than expected, to take it head-on would guarantee serious injury with blood spraying!
In a split-second decision, Doflamingo acted decisively.
Flicking his fingers, he attached threads to the clouds higher above, his body soaring another hundred meters, narrowly avoiding the lingering fury of the tornado.
On the ground, Kuina frowned slightly.
She had perfected her Wind Swordsmanship and modified its moves combining her prior swordsmanship expertise, incorporating Haki into the "Steel Cutting Flash," significantly increasing its destructive power.
However, although this move could easily cause terrifying damage to large ground targets, the flaw was... quite apparent.
It was difficult to threaten an agile opponent like Doflamingo who could maneuver freely in the sky.
As thoughts raced, her gaze locked once more onto the pink figure in the air.
At this moment, Doflamingo, repositioned, was swiftly approaching with a diving momentum, his right palm opened after gathering force, and countless threads surged out, quickly converging into a massive white line resembling a giant's arm.
"Super Strike Whip!"
The gigantic thread descended from a hundred meters in the sky with the force of thunder, seemingly intending to split Kuina on the ground along with the castle and all the crew in half!
"Just right!"
Facing the overwhelming, incoming transparent threads, Kuina's eyes glinted coldly, her sword blade swung, unleashing over ten sharp Sword Qi like torrential rain.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
In the dense sounds of air being torn, the giant thread capable of slicing through a town instantly broke apart, disintegrating into countless fragments, scattered and disappeared in midair.
Since the tornado couldn't deal with you, then keep pushing forward!
