Chapter 68 People who smile a lot are bound to have good luck!
Unlike the frightened Bucky,
Kizaru showed no joy at the victory.
He stood beside the deep pit, gestured with his lip, and said in a calm tone:
"Well, stalling for time won't help."
"It's still early before I get off work..."
The voice just fell,
"boom--"
Sand and gravel churned in the deep pit, and a figure soared into the sky—it was Kuroro.
"If you get off work late, don't work overtime! What kind of worker has to work the night shift!" Kuroro wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed on Kizaru.
He floated in mid-air, his body slightly larger, his chest slightly concave, and his skin pitch black, clearly covered by Armament Haki.
"Yo~ Advanced Armament Haki..."
Kizaru looked at this scene with a slight look of surprise.
"It seems to be the effect of Bonnie's Year-Year Fruit—"
His eyes gradually narrowed.
"I noticed it from the very beginning~"
"It seems you stole Bonnie's abilities~"
Kizaru counted on his fingers:
"Instant teleportation... spatial abilities... the Year-Year Fruit... and now, the ability to grow bigger—just how many more abilities do you have?"
"besides......"
A knowing smile played on Kizaru's lips. "I want to know... just how did you manage to steal other people's abilities?"
"This is very important—it determines your level of danger."
"And...should I kill you or not?" Kizaru's glasses reflected the light, his expression inscrutable.
"Want to learn, huh?" Kuroro looked at Kizaru provocatively.
The clay figure still harbored some anger; he had already been provoked.
"I'll teach you—"
Kuroro extended his right hand: "Positive pole, negative pole—"
In an instant, Kizaru was pulled towards Chrollo at high speed. Although he noticed the anomaly immediately and used Armament Haki to neutralize the effect,
However, due to that enormous inertia, the speed at which it was closing in did not stop—
"You've been the one hitting me all along, that's not my style. Let me show you what I'm capable of!"
"Didn't you want to know exactly how many abilities I have...?"
Kuroro bent over, turned his body to one side, and began to rotate his right arm, veins bulging.
"Then I'll tell you..."
As it rotated, the air compressed in sheets, and the golden light above his right fist grew stronger and stronger, eventually almost condensing into a tangible golden sun.
"My abilities are numerous..."
Kuroro raised his head, his eyes flashing fiercely as he looked at Kizaru.
"It's endless—"
"Cause and Effect Fruit - Heavenly Reversal - Super Destructive Fist!!!"
A golden sun, as big as a human, swung fiercely at Kizaru—
Like a blazing sun crashing into Kizaru in mid-air, completely engulfing his figure...
The air was first compressed to its limit—
The surroundings were so quiet it was as if the pause button had been pressed.
It exploded completely in the next second!
Like a nuclear bomb exploding in mid-air, a terrifying shockwave shot into the sky, and even the surrounding space collapsed and caved in under this attack.
Ripples of immense power spread outwards from where the two met.
Wherever the ripples passed... everything shattered.
Bucky, who was frantically fleeing, was once again stunned: "The sun... is falling down!!!"
He was then thrown back by the shockwave and landed once again on the edge of the crater...
Watching this carries the risk of death at any moment.
Bucky, his hair blackened, turned around, his teeth chattering as he looked at the two still locked in a standoff.
"Brothers... I don't want to watch anymore, okay...?"
And his henchmen behind him...
"They're working together to drive Captain Bucky away!"
"Captain Bucky watching from the sidelines must have put immense pressure on them!"
"What else is there to say—"
"Wow... Wow... Bucky! Bucky!"
........
The dazzling light lasted for a long time, and a crater appeared in the ground that was even larger than the one caused by Kizaru's attack.
The surrounding forests were reduced to scorched earth.
"Yare yare~"
Kizaru's voice echoed from within the smoke and dust, still in that exaggerated and irritating tone.
"That was close! You almost succeeded!"
"How scary!"
As the smoke and dust cleared, Kizaru slowly emerged.
Kuroro's expression was solemn.
Before Kizaru stood a giant mirror made of golden light—the Yata Mirror: Defense!
He perfectly blocked Kuroro's attack—
However, Kuroro keenly noticed that Kizaru's arms had also turned completely black, covered in Armament Haki.
He's clearly serious now.
"Your strength has increased a lot!"
"By using the power of the Year-Year Fruit, I can acquire the physical attributes of a certain stage in the future, and then launch an attack by stacking a series of abilities."
Kizaru squinted, his glasses reflecting light as he analyzed the situation.
"You really are dangerous~"
"Your presence might affect a lot of things~"
"It would have been better to kill you after all~"
As he spoke, Kizaru crossed his arms into an X shape, and the surrounding light began to converge between his hands.
The light solidified between his hands, compressing the surrounding air and generating an electric arc. The next second...
"The Eight-Foot Magatama—"
A dense barrage of light-gathering projectiles shot out from between his hands, trailing long streaks of flame as they rained down—
Thousands upon thousands of light bullets covered the entire battlefield.
Countless sharp explosions ripped through the air—
"call out--"
"Rumble, rumble—"
A massive explosion resounded through the already ravaged forest, sending countless small mushroom clouds blooming on the ground, like the end of the world.
"Ahhh—I'm going to die! I'm going to die!!"
The moment Kizaru's destructive light poured down like a golden rain, Buggy's scream even drowned out the roar of the explosion.
Extreme fear caused him to reflexively use "Disintegrate".
His entire body disintegrated instantly—his torso lay flat on the ground, his hands clutching his flying head, while his legs had long since disappeared into some unknown corner.
"This is a fucking monster fight! Is this something humans should be getting involved in?!"
His head, suspended in mid-air, was screaming and complaining, his features contorted, as if he were about to cry.
"Amen! Jesus! Guanyin! Any passing deity, please show your power and bless your faithful follower, Mr. Bucky!"
He incoherently called out every god he could think of, his hands flying in the air tightly covering his eyes, unable to bear looking at the impending destruction.
"Whoosh—"
The expected excruciating pain did not come.
A gentle breeze swept by.
Bucky's head cautiously and tremblingly opened one eye through his fingers.
The sight that met his eyes stunned him—
The surrounding land was already ravaged, riddled with lava-like craters and steaming with heat, but not a single light blast hit them.
"I'm... I'm saved?!" Bucky sat up in a daze.
Just then, his henchman stepped forward:
"We're not dead! It was Captain Bucky! Captain Bucky protected us!"
Then the underlings started shouting wildly.
"That's right! I just saw Captain Bucky spread his arms wide, facing that devastating light without flinching!"
"Those energy blasts... they must have been intimidated by Captain Bucky's immense power! They avoided us!"
"Captain Bucky... he planned this all along! He used his own strength to create an absolute territory for us!"
"Who else but Captain Bucky could fight that monster admiral and protect us?!"
"What else is there to say?!"
"So majestic...so majestic..."
"Bucky! Bucky!!"
Bucky, sitting in the center of the crowd, remained in a dazed position, mouth agape.
Looking at his subordinates, who were so fanatical about their own conquest, only one thought remained in his mind:
"Huh?! What... just happened?!"
