Chapter 408 Magellan in Battle
Chapter 408 Magellan in Battle
In the fierce battle, Magellan unleashed his forbidden technique—the Poison Giant's Judgment. This move was incredibly powerful, instantly releasing a massive amount of deadly poison, shrouding everything in its path in a shadow of death. However, despite its immense power, Magellan was ultimately no match for his opponent and was forced to flee.
Meanwhile, Crocodile was also secretly observing the battle. Seeing Whitebeard engaged in fierce combat with the enemy, he devised a plan to take advantage of the situation and launch a sneak attack. However, his plan failed; Whitebeard, being highly alert, discovered his intention in time and successfully thwarted his attack.
On another battlefield, Hina was engaged in a fierce duel with Luffy. Luffy seemed unconcerned about the fight, his attacks appearing somewhat careless. Suddenly, Luffy unleashed his signature technique, "Gear Second," instantly accelerating and escaping the scene like lightning, catching Hina completely off guard.
In the battle between the Giant Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral and Luffy, the Giant Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral displayed immense power. His enormous size and astonishing strength made each attack feel like an earthquake. However, Luffy was not intimidated by his imposing presence. He skillfully used his Gum-Gum Fruit powers to deflect the Vice Admiral's attacks time and again. Finally, Luffy unleashed his ultimate technique, the "Gum-Gum Giant Spin," using its immense force to send the Giant Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral flying, securing victory in the battle.
Meanwhile, Smoker was in dire straits during his battle with the enemy. He was tightly entangled and on the verge of being captured. Just then, Hancock suddenly appeared and used her powers to petrify the enemy, successfully rescuing Smoker.
Finally, in the battle between Dracule Mihawk and Luffy, Luffy demonstrated his wit and courage. He first used the "Gum-Gum Jet Scapegoat" technique, using Buggy's body to block Mihawk's slash, and then received timely rescue from Vista, successfully escaping Mihawk's pursuit.
In the Straw Hat Pirates, Zoro and Luffy are undoubtedly the two strongest fighters, and their roles in battle often determine the outcome of the Straw Hat crew's fights. So, who is stronger, Zoro or Luffy? Actually, we already know the answer through their battles.
First Battle: Zoro and Luffy have the deepest relationship, being the earliest crewmates and trusting each other implicitly. However, they've never had a serious fight, so they don't know who's stronger. When Luffy and his crew entered the Grand Line and passed by the first island, Whiskey Island, a misunderstanding led to their first battle.
At the time, Luffy was furious because he thought Zoro had betrayed him and killed all the residents of Whiskey Island. Enraged, Luffy confronted Zoro without listening to his explanation and immediately started fighting. The scene was quite intense, with both fighting with their true colors and boundless anger. However, in the end, neither could gain the upper hand before Nami suddenly appeared and knocked out Luffy with a single blow.
Furthermore, I believe that although Luffy and Zoro appeared extremely angry in this battle, they both held back. After all, they are very close, and they wouldn't truly risk their lives in any fight. This was merely a test between them, so the battle ended in a draw.
The second battle: The second battle between Zoro and Luffy was a true life-or-death struggle. This battle happened very suddenly. Luffy and his crew, who were on an adventure, suddenly encountered a terrible situation where they were easily stripped of their memories. The cause of this battle was that Zoro's memories were stripped away and he entered a hallucination. He saw Luffy as his greatest enemy, so Zoro was at full power from the very beginning of the battle.
Luffy was genuinely startled by Zoro's sudden attack, and Zoro's attacks after activating his Three-Sword Style were extremely ferocious and sharp, leaving the unprepared Luffy struggling to defend himself. Throughout the entire battle, Zoro dominated Luffy, inflicting multiple injuries on him. At that moment, Luffy fought with all his might, knowing that he couldn't stop Zoro without giving it his all.
Throughout the battle, Zoro's attacks were slightly more lethal than Luffy's, but this doesn't mean Zoro is stronger. I think there are several reasons for this: First, although Luffy tried his best to block Zoro, he wasn't going all out to kill him, so he definitely held back. Second, Zoro used his Three-Sword Style ultimate technique, Three Thousand Worlds, against Luffy, but it didn't cause Luffy any substantial damage.
Thirdly, Zoro attacked with all his might, but Luffy still held back several powerful techniques. Furthermore, Luffy's power level after activating Gear Second in Water 7 was at least several times higher than before. While Zoro's strength also increased, he is still a human, and his power level, no matter how much it increases, cannot reach several times the original level. Therefore, in a full-force attack, Luffy would defeat Zoro.
In this thrilling battle, the three admirals of the Marine Headquarters engaged in a fierce fight with Luffy. Despite unleashing their ultimate techniques, surprisingly, these powerful attacks had no effect on Luffy!
At a crucial moment, Luffy activated Gear Second, successfully shaking off the admirals and escaping the scene at lightning speed. However, his good fortune seemed to have run out. Kizaru caught up with Luffy at an astonishing speed and kicked him away without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Kuzan also encountered a great crisis during his fierce battle with the enemy. Just as he was about to be assassinated by the enemy, Marco rushed forward like lightning and saved Kuzan's life.
Meanwhile, the battle between Momonga and Dalmesia has also reached a fever pitch. The two are exchanging blows, neither giving an inch, making for an exceptionally fierce fight. Currently, neither side seems to have a clear advantage, and the outcome is uncertain.
In this fierce battle, Defeated became the biggest victim. He was first severely injured by Momonga's masterful "Shave + Moonwalk + Swordsmanship" combo. However, this was only the beginning. He was then struck by Dalmesia's powerful attack—"Finger Gun." This blow was like a thunderbolt, exacerbating Defeated's injuries and leaving him in critical condition.
Borsalino's situation was equally dire. He was pierced directly through the body by the laser and then kicked away with a powerful kick. This series of blows severely injured Borsalino, leaving him in critical condition.
At this critical moment, Whitebeard appeared like a savior, his massive body like a mountain, steadily catching the injured Borsalino. Whitebeard's appearance seemed to bring a glimmer of hope to the entire battlefield, and his powerful aura shocked everyone.
In contrast, Kobi achieved a resounding victory. He unleashed his signature move, the "Rubber Bullet," in which his body stretched rapidly like rubber before launching himself forward with astonishing speed and power. The attack was incredibly powerful, striking his opponent like a cannonball and sending him sprawling to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
But at that moment, an unexpected turn of events occurred. The executioner, who was about to carry out Ace's execution, suddenly seemed to lose consciousness and unleashed Conqueror's Haki without warning. This powerful Haki swept across the entire area like a surging wave, leaving both Marine officers and soldiers and some pirates under the Whitebeard Pirates dizzy and disoriented, with many even fainting on the spot.
Meanwhile, the battle between Monkey D. Garp and Luffy on the other side also reached a fever pitch. Garp's strength was unfathomable; every punch he threw contained immense power. Luffy, relying on the power of his Gum-Gum Fruit, skillfully dodged Garp's attacks and seized opportunities to counterattack. The two exchanged blows, neither giving an inch, and for a time, it was impossible to determine a winner. Garp activated Gear Second, displaying formidable strength. However, due to his inner hesitation and holding back against Luffy, he was ultimately sent flying by a powerful punch from Luffy.
Finally, the duel between Sengoku and Luffy reached a stalemate. Luffy successfully blocked Sengoku's attack with his "Gum-Gum Giant Balloon," but defeating Sengoku completely was no easy task. At the crucial moment, Galdino intervened, and together with Luffy, they successfully rescued Ace.
In this fierce battle, the opponents suffered an unexpected and crushing defeat. First, the fake Straw Hat crew was completely powerless against the "Conqueror's Haki" and was instantly defeated.
The Pacifista PX-5 then met the same fate. Despite its immense power, it crumbled easily under the attack of the "Rubber Jet Pistol" imbued with Armament Haki.
However, the real challenge comes from Kraken. This enormous and ferocious monster inspires despair, but the protagonists do not back down. They skillfully use the "Gum-Gum Elephant Gun" to finally defeat it, and together with Zorro and Sanji, successfully tame this terrifying beast.
Finally, Hammond, the lionfish, and Leopard became the protagonists' next targets. Although the "Rubber Jet Pistol" easily killed Hammond and the lionfish, Leopard put up a tenacious resistance. He not only blocked the fatal blow but also quickly retaliated with his poisonous stinger, bringing new danger to the protagonists.
Vander Deiken IX
In the fierce battle, Victory unleashed his signature move, the "Rubber Jet Hammer," smashing his opponent like a cannonball and knocking him to the ground.
However, this did not subdue the victorious enemy. Immediately afterwards, Watatsumi displayed his counterattack, accurately striking Victory's front tooth with the power of his "Rubber Jet Pistol." This blow not only caused Victory excruciating pain but also forced him to flee in panic with Princess Shirahoshi.
In another battle, Jinbe engaged in fierce combat with the enemy, but ultimately failed to achieve any substantial results, resulting in a stalemate. Just then, Robin's sudden appearance interrupted the battle.
On the battlefield of the New Fishman Pirates, Victory displayed his astonishing strength. He unleashed Conqueror's Haki, instantly annihilating all 50,000 enemy soldiers, a scene that left everyone speechless.
Facing the formidable Hody Jones, Victory showed no fear. He first delivered a heavy blow to his opponent with the "Rubber Fire Fist," severely injuring him. Then, he unleashed the "Rubber Elephant Gun Barrage," a storm of attacks that utterly defeated Hody Jones.
Finally, in the final showdown with Caribou, Victory, along with Zoro and Sanji, joined forces to defeat Caribou and successfully seize all his treasure.
In the fierce battle, Dragon 13 displayed formidable strength, working closely with Zoro and Usopp to ultimately defeat their opponents. Meanwhile, Tea Beard failed to achieve victory in his battle against the Centaur Pirates and was knocked into the icy sea. Fortunately, he was rescued by Brook in time, thus saving his life.
Meanwhile, the Cool Brothels also triumphed over Franky, who had transformed into Chopper. However, in order to restore Franky to his normal state after consuming a Rumble Ball and going berserk, they were forced to use their signature move, the Elephant Gun, to knock Franky to the ground.
In addition, an unexpected situation arose during the duel between Tashigi and Smoker. Due to the switch in their physical and mental states, they were unable to exert their full strength and decided to voluntarily suspend the duel.
In another battle, César Courland suffered a crushing defeat. He suffocated and passed out after the air was sucked out. However, the battle did not end there; Monet's intervention changed the tide, but ultimately she could not alter the outcome and fell into the underground junkyard.
Finally, Caesar Couran won his final battle with a "Rubber Grizzly Gun," while Spartan secured victory with an over-the-shoulder throw, knocking his opponent down in one blow.
