Chapter 270 Let's go together
"Long time no see. To save everyone time, let's have you all come at me together."
When Kaido saw Nicholas in the Sky, the anger on his face quickly receded, replaced by undisguised cold Killing Intent. Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, released at full Power, traveled along his arm to the Spiked Club. The already terrifying Spiked Club became even more chilling as it was covered in Armament Haki.
Then Kaido swung his Spiked Club, heavily swinging it towards Nicholas like hitting a baseball.
Along with Kaido's swing, a cylindrical Shockwave flew towards Nicholas like a comet.
Nicholas immediately noticed Kaido's Action, but he had no intention of dodging. After Kaido launched his Attack, he wanted to see just how strong he was now.
"Boom!"
Seeing Nicholas actually block his Attack with one hand, Kaido's Spiked Club slammed into the Ground.
The Terror of the Power instantly smashed a large pit into the Ground.
Charlotte Linlin, stepping on Thundercloud Zeus, landed beside Kaido, her eyes filled with Killing Intent sweeping towards Nicholas in the Sky.
"Did you just say one against two?!"
Nicholas's sudden appearance could be said to be something unexpected.
After all, according to her and Kaido's original Plan, they would first eliminate Kozuki Oden, pacify White Dance, and then use the powerful Strength of the Hundred Beasts and Big Mom Pirates to directly defeat the opponent. But she didn't expect Nicholas to arrive so quickly.
Moreover, judging from Nicholas blocking Kaido's Attack with one hand, that Weapon has become stronger again.
But for Charlotte Linlin, this was not insurmountable. The main Reason why she couldn't wait to kill Nicholas was Nicholas's Words just now.
Those who can become Powerful Figures on the Grand Line all have their own pride. What the hell does "one against two, come at me together" mean? What does he take them for, small fries on the Grand Line?
Kaido swung his Spiked Club, moving his Arm, and coldly looked at Nicholas.
"What's wrong, didn't you understand?"
Facing the cold Gaze filled with Killing Intent from the two Big Shots of the Grand Line, Nicholas, with Calm Eyes, summoned a Long Sword in his hand, holding the Sword horizontally in front of him and said to the two again.
"I said, I want to fight the two of you alone. A hothead plus a Weapon who produces trash by giving birth. I'm still somewhat confident in taking you two on... Of course, those People you brought who want to die can come at me together too."
"!!!"
Hearing this, BIGMOM widened her Blood Mark Eyes. In her opinion, using childbirth to create powerful children and ascend to the Throne of the King of the Grand Line was the wisest choice she had made. But in Nicholas's Eyes, it seemed insignificant. These Words almost overturned the principles she adhered to, making her exceptionally angry.
"I'll see just where you get the Confidence to spout such arrogant nonsense!!!"
"Confidence?"
Nicholas tilted his head and smiled.
Confidence?
Nicholas's Confidence comes from the Ability of his Fruit, the Strength of his own two-color Haki, and his mastery of Body Technique and Swordsmanship.
It's no exaggeration to say that perhaps on the Grand Line, apart from the unfathomable Im, he fears no other Powerful Figure. Even if he were surrounded, no one could stop him from leaving if he wanted to.
This is the Confidence of a well-rounded Warrior.
Hearing Nicholas's Words, the Members of the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates who came with Charlotte Linlin only felt that Nicholas was truly arrogant.
To provoke two Emperors of the Grand Line at the same time, where does his Confidence come from?
"Mama, mamamama..."
Seeing Nicholas's Look, Charlotte Linlin laughed in extreme anger.
However, anyone from the Charlotte Family knew that Mama's anger had now reached its peak.
"Napoleon! Prometheus!"
Charlotte Linlin shouted out the names of her Soul Homies at the top of her lungs.
Although no Order was issued, Napoleon the bicorne hat, who possessed Soul and individual Consciousness, and Prometheus the little Sun, instantly understood Charlotte Linlin's intention.
"Yes, Mama!"
"Okay, Mama!"
The blade of Napoleon the bicorne hat, in its transformed form, suddenly swelled in size, while Prometheus transformed into a ball of raging Flames, attaching itself to Napoleon's Sword.
The Napoleon Longsword that Charlotte Linlin held in her hand Instantly transformed into a giant Flame Blade, and Charlotte Linlin's hair also burst into Flames.
Coupled with the pitch-black Thundercloud Zeus under her feet, constantly Discharging Lightning, and the Aura emanating from Charlotte Linlin's Body.
The entire Appearance looked like it was exuding an astonishing sense of oppression.
Even some Ordinary People of Wano Country had been frightened and collapsed on the Ground.
"Might Kingdom!"
Without saying any more Words, Charlotte Linlin, in her rage, started with Full Power. She also knew that against an Opponent of Nicholas's level, any tentative Attacks were useless. Only true Strength could speak.
The Long Sword Napoleon, wrapped in Flames, was raised behind her with both hands. Then, with force in her arms, she swung it down towards Nicholas from afar.
As the Flame Sword fell, a Shockwave wrapped in a Flame serpent was born in response to the momentum, carrying a powerful aura and rushing towards Nicholas head-on.
As the Shockwave passed, it even gave the illusion that Space was being distorted.
At the same time, the Terror Strength of the Sea Emperor was fully displayed.
"Might Kingdom!"
Facing Charlotte Linlin's Might Kingdom with its astonishing Destructive Power, Nicholas did not retreat or evade. He also raised the Long Sword in his hand and slashed out a Shockwave wrapped in purplish-red Electric Arc that was just as powerful.
The two cylindrical Shockwaves collided in mid-Sky in the blink of an eye.
At the moment of collision, an extremely dazzling Radiance burst out from it, as if a second Sun had appeared in the Sky.
Immediately following was the Terror Energy that was released, and layers of Air Wave that appeared in the Sky like ripples, frantically surging in all directions.
The surging Air Wave, like a typhoon of dozens of levels, blew the Buildings on the Ground to pieces. Even some People were swept up and sent flying by the Shockwave.
Charlotte Linlin, standing on Thundercloud Zeus, grinned as she faced the onrushing Air Wave. The Air Wave, which would make it difficult for Ordinary People to even stand, was like a gentle breeze on her Face.
Charlotte Linlin's cold Gaze seemed to pierce through layers of Space to kill Nicholas.
Nicholas also stood still, facing the onrushing Air Wave, his expression Calm as he watched the Residual Power of the Shockwave that was still releasing Energy.
A head-on clash, evenly matched.
This was also a demonstration of Nicholas's current Strength.
Without needing to use Lightning and Haki to amplify his Body, his own Power alone was enough to directly confront the naturally born Monster Charlotte Linlin without being at a disadvantage.
"Mamama, is this where your Confidence lies, Nicholas?"
Charlotte Linlin suddenly narrowed her Eyes and said, looking at Nicholas. As a naturally born Monster, she knew very well how Terror her own Power was. It was the kind of Power that would grow with age without needing much diligent Training.
And it was clear that Nicholas's current Power was comparable to her own in her normal state.
