Today, you will die!

While Orochi in this form could attack via fire, you could say the devil fruit was useless other than that…

It did give him a huge physical boost, and a very tough defense. But the fruit's real power lied somewhere else… and the scabbards were about to see what this devil fruit gave its user.

While the others from the scabbards were busy dodging the fire pillars thrown at them by Orochi, Kin'emon readied his own attack.

He was targeting the main head among the eight. The one that had a darker shade of color and appeared similar to Orochi the most.

"HAH"

He then jumped at him with a yell as he kicked the ground with enough force to fracture it.

"Shakunetsu no kiritsukeru" (Burning cut)

Unlike earlier this time he was using his Haki on his sword.

As such the moment his flaming sword made contact with the head of the screaming Orochi it was swiftly cut apart.

And from each side of the cut that Kin'emon made flames emerged and scorched the area making the long neck with no head start to thrash around and the other heads yell in pain.

"AHHAHHHH!"

But something happened afterward that shocked them all…

The head that was cut all of a sudden started to regrow.

"YOU BASTARD" The head that was cut started to yell as Orochi started to speak in ridicule next.

"You think you can beat me that easily? Even Kaido failed to do that Gufuhahaha, However, you dared to hurt me, I will make sure to cook you alive!!" Orochi said angrily.

It was true, Kaido had thought he had killed him. But it didn't work for him, and now even Kin'emon failed to do so.

"W-What is this?" Kin'emon was perplexed about this…

But he didn't give up, rather he resumed attacking soon after.

"Even so, such a thing will not stop me!" He yelled and jumped resuming his attack.

Orochi laughed before throwing a fire pillar at Kin'emon.

But then Orochi saw the fire pillar getting cut apart into various parts…

Kin'emon then attacked with his sword.

"Honō no ko" (Flaming Arcs)

He used his sword and swung his flaming sword multiple times at the same head.

But even as the head was dissected apart, it only took a second to once again reform like earlier.

And taking advantage of Kin'emon being shocked again, the head swung around and hit him straight into the stomach throwing him away into a nearby house where he crashed.

"Gufuhahaha, it's useless…" Orochi laughed.

He then threw massive fire pillars at everyone else and got a valuable second to finish Kin'emon while the others were still occupied.

And then he followed his attack by momentarily focusing all heads on Kin'emon at the fallen house, and then firing flame pillars that combined at one point and continued on as one massive pillar afterward.

"Moeru yōna…kyōran!" (Flaming Frenzy)

Orochi thought that with this attack he would have an easier time with the others. Since Kin'emon was the only one capable of cutting the flames apart.

And although the others were strong, they still had to dodge the very hot flames he was throwing, and so far they had not been able to deal any huge damage like Kin'emon.

Seeing this attack on Kin'emon they felt like they were useless…

But as everyone thought that Kin'emon was finished, the huge flaming pillar was cut easily by Kin'emon and he jumped next to his fellow scabbards.

"Bastard, why won't you just die?!" Orochi yelled and decided to finish them all at the same time.

He did the same attack but this time he did not stop supplying fire to them.

Kin'emon seeing this yelled at his friends and allies.

"Leave this to me! I'm going to get us an opening at that time, everybody should focus on cutting his heads!" Kin'emon spoke up.

He then proceeded to cut the flame pillar apart while at the same time giving an opportunity for them to attack.

"For Lord Oden!" Both rulers yelled as they attacked.

Nekomamushi using his claws covered in electro while Inuarashi used his sword skills.

Nekomamushi and Inuarashi had it the easiest as they each deliver a devastating attack that cut a head right away.

Their electro combined with Haki gave them a huge advantage.

Denjiro yelled similarly to them as he dealt his own attack.

He jumped at the sky and started to spin while falling down before delivering an over-the-shoulder downward strike that cut cleanly through the head.

Kikunojo also jumped at the sky but unlike them all, she didn't need to get closer to cut the head.

"Zansetsu-gama" (Lingering Snow Scythes)

No, she used her ability with the sword and dealt multiple circular flying slash attacks towards her intended target.

The attack shredded the head rather than cut it…

Raizo used an ability of his to throw a huge flaming pillar at the head.

He had earlier managed to store it in his scroll, and now he used it to destroy one of Orochi's heads.

The head was evaporated completely from the above of the neck area.

Kawamatsu the fishmen among them used his great strength to his advantage as he leaped in the sky delivering a horizontal slash attack that cut cleanly through the head.

This left only Ashura Doji who followed their examples and dealt his own attack resulting in the seventh head getting cut.

All of these attacks happened at the same time, so one moment Orochi was still using his heads to attack Kin'emon, and the next he only had one head left.

"Orochi!! Today you will die!" Kin'emon seeing everything happening yelled as hard as he could.

Everyone noticed that as they had cut the seven heads and only the main one was left, no heads started to regrow…

Kin'emon then held his sword with one hand as he unsheathed the second sword and got into a Nitoryu sword-style stance.

The other scabbards each followed Kin'emon's example and started to hold both swords.

They knew what Kin'emon had in mind, and they agreed. Today Orochi will die.

"Oden Nitoryu!" they all yelled at the same time as they jumped at the last head.

Orochi started thrashing around as he panicked.

"Stop! Stop! You will die! Kaido won't forgive you if you kill me! I said stop! Please" He started to yell at them and threaten to kill them, even using Kaido's name. The panic was apparent in his tone.

But they didn't care one bit as each of them used the same sword attack which Oden used once in the past.

"Togen Totsuka" (Paradise Ten Hands)

And then each of them threw an X-shaped slash that combined into one giant one and proceeded to cut Orochi's head into four parts.

Finally signifying the death of their hateful enemy by the very attack their deceased lord used to do…
