This overwhelming pressure made Doflamingo feel like he was facing a great terror. He had only ever seen this kind of power in monsters like Big Mom.
No!
Raijin is still far from being at that level.
Compared to those monsters, this guy in front of me doesn't even come close.
He hasn't even mastered Haki, so trying to compare him to those guys is ridiculous.
Unless this guy awakens Conqueror's Haki!
*Buzz!*
Doflamingo's posture remained unchanged.
A strong aura began to emanate from him, spreading out from his body.
In the next moment, it gradually enveloped the entire island, a violent force sweeping in all directions.
Everyone was caught in it, and with the exception of the Donquixote Family, no one was spared.
They were all enveloped by Doflamingo's Conqueror's Haki.
"So this is Conqueror's Haki? As expected, it's truly a symbol of a strong individual."
Nara Shikaku and the others stood behind Raijin, their faces showing no extra expression.
But they sensed the unique power in this force, and at the same time, felt a bit disappointed.
Is this power only good for intimidating others? Does it have no other abilities?
Is the rare King's quality only meant to scare people?
The ninja that Raijin brought showed no change in their expressions.
Doflamingo's level of Haki wasn't enough to frighten them.
These people had all been through the crucible of war, emerging from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood as true elites.
The Uchiha clan members also felt no pressure.
They were even a bit excited to fight someone like this.
Continuous battles would make them even stronger.
The Uchiha clan thrives in battle.
After all, they are descendants of the Sage of Six Paths.
Their power is meant for fighting.
Raijin had brought elite Jonin from the Uchiha clan, and they were eager to prove themselves.
"Conqueror's Haki? And you dare call yourself a king in front of me?"
Raijin looked at Doflamingo with displeasure.
"A king is born! Only those with Conqueror's Haki have the quality of a king!"
"Only with this power can one truly stand at the pinnacle of the seas!"
"Fufufufu, do you not have it? Looks like I overestimated you."
Doflamingo suddenly felt a surge of superiority, a bright smile on his face.
Even though it's possible to reach the pinnacle of the seas without Conqueror's Haki...
But...
The majority of those who do reach the pinnacle have Conqueror's Haki.
This guy in front of me...
Is destined never to possess it in this lifetime.
"Hah!"
Raijin chuckled softly.
He didn't expect to be mocked by this guy over something like this.
But it's not impossible!
Raijin now possesses not only the power of the Naruto world.
Since coming to the world of One Piece, Raijin's Kamui space has undergone a complete transformation.
Now they can also wield the power of the One Piece world, with the two forces merged.
Thanks to the system, any ninja that Raijin brought to the world of One Piece...
These people have the potential to awaken Haki.
It's not that they don't have it now!
They just haven't yet discovered and mastered it.
Raijin stood still, closing his eyes, feeling the hidden power within his body.
Raijin had asked the system before if he had the potential for Conqueror's Haki.
The system's answer was: "As the one tasked with reviving the Uchiha clan, you naturally have the presence of a king. Even without the system, it would reward you with it."
But Raijin had to discover it on his own, otherwise, it would remain hidden within him.
*Whoosh!*
In the next moment, dark clouds gathered over Dressrosa.
Everyone instinctively looked up at the sky!
The dark clouds covered the sun, plunging the island into darkness.
In the next moment!
A powerful aura began to surge around Raijin.
The ninjas standing beside Raijin felt a growing unease.
They gritted their teeth, struggling to withstand the oppressive force emanating from Raijin.
Doflamingo, who had been laughing moments before, and the gathered marines all turned their gazes towards Raijin.
The surroundings fell into silence.
Complete stillness!
The veins on Doflamingo's forehead bulged as his fists clenched tightly.
He cursed the heavens for their unfairness.
He couldn't believe this guy in front of him actually had the potential to awaken Conqueror's Haki.
Since when had Conqueror's Haki become so cheap?
Any random person in front of him now seemed to have this quality.
What on earth is happening in this world?
"Conqueror's Haki, huh! Even stronger than Doflamingo's!"
From a distance, Tsuru evaluated the brewing aura.
Doflamingo seemed like a child throwing a tantrum, utterly powerless in the face of it.
The killing intent and pressure released by the other party made it hard for Doflamingo to even breathe, forcing him to use Conqueror's Haki to resist.
Raijin has become even stronger now. Does Doflamingo have any other means to resist?
Tsuru glanced at the birdcage in the sky...
Tsk!
That was her simple assessment!
…
Raijin tapped into the hidden power, and the pressure around him grew even stronger.
But this Conqueror's Haki attacked indiscriminately, and now the ninjas beside him were finding it hard to resist.
They all took a few steps back, putting some distance between themselves and Raijin.
Behind him, Uchiha Kazehana's eyes were filled with fervor.
This display of unbridled power, this bold personality...
It was just like another Madara Uchiha!
The Uchiha clan had once again welcomed a Shura from the shinobi world.
This alone would excite them for a long time.
*Boom!*
Cracks began to appear on the ground.
Raijin hadn't moved at all, yet the entire world seemed to tremble.
In an instant!
It was as if countless lightning bolts flashed.
An overwhelming pressure bore down on Doflamingo.
It felt as if the entire world had frozen in that moment.
A dark red ripple spread out.
The world shook.
All of this felt so natural to Raijin.
It was as if using the Sharingan was second nature.
There was no discomfort at all.
"You bastard!"
Doflamingo looked at Raijin with a mix of shock and anger, unable to believe this guy actually pulled it off.
---
You should know how much effort it took back then for him to awaken his Conqueror's Haki.
But this guy in front of me, in just a moment...
He has already awakened Conqueror's Haki.
Before, Trebol said he was a natural-born king.
But now, what does that make this guy in front of me?
Could he be a god by birth?
And to awaken with such overwhelming power.
It seems like he could crush everything around him.
Is this kind of power really something a human can awaken?
Right now, all Doflamingo can do is use his Conqueror's Haki to fight this guy.
But fighting against someone who has just awakened Conqueror's Haki...
It makes him, an old pirate of the sea, look a bit bad.
Boom!
Their Haki clashed together.
In an instant, the world changed color.
The entire world dimmed.
You could see a fierce air current clashing between them.
A powerful hurricane swept across Dressrosa.
"What an intense pressure!"
Vice Admiral Tsuru was stunned as she looked at Raijin, as if she was witnessing the rise of a king.
She had never seen a king like Raijin before!
Just awakening Conqueror's Haki and already possessing such terrifying power.
The sea might have another monster like Kaido now.
I wonder if this guy has plans to continue expanding.
If he does want to keep expanding, they'll have to figure out a way to stop him.
"Everyone around is fainted."
The marine behind Tsuru was shocked as she watched the scene unfold.
She felt like she was witnessing a moment of history on the sea.
She was witnessing the rise of a king!
"Of course, such a guy will definitely not be weaker than Whitebeard in the future."
"Contact Sengoku, I want to report everything here to him."
Tsuru spoke, showing her attention to Raijin.
A force suddenly rising on the sea, the marines must investigate.
They even need to see if this guy can become their ally.
Right now, pirates dominate the sea, so they need to gather more talent.
"Sister Tsuru, the Den Den Mushi also fainted."
The female marine holding the fainted Den Den Mushi said awkwardly.
"Conqueror's Haki? This power is nothing special."
"Is this the power you're so proud of? How disappointing."
Raijin frowned slightly, having had some expectations for Conqueror's Haki.
But after truly awakening it, he realized the power...
It's too weak.
At best, it's used to intimidate small fry in the early stages.
Only the so-called Conqueror's Haki coating could catch Raijin's attention.
Indeed!
Ignorance is a person's greatest fear.
The Conqueror's Haki that Doflamingo was so proud of, Raijin didn't care about it at all.
Doesn't having Conqueror's Haki mean being a king who rules the entire sea?
History is written by the victors.
""
Doflamingo clenched his fists tightly.
Now, the bright smile on his face was gone.
Now, all that's left is endless silence.
"I've had enough fun, so that's that!"
"Continuing to tangle with you is just a waste of time."
Raijin looked at the dejected Doflamingo standing there, feeling a bit bored.
Why are the opponents in this generation so weak? They can't even put up a fight.
And this force dares to challenge the Uchiha? They must not know their own limits.
"Let's win the first battle for the Uchiha Clan and show the strength of the Uchiha on this sea."
"Make them fear the name Uchiha, and let them know what true power represents."
Raijin raised his Flame Fan and said calmly.
"Roar!"
"Fight to the death for Lord Raijin! Fight for the honor of the Uchiha!"
"Fight to the death for Lord Raijin! Fight for the honor of the Uchiha!"
"Fight to the death for Lord Raijin! Fight for the honor of the Uchiha!"
The Uchiha Clan's momentum was high, and one after another, angry roars echoed.
A pair of red eyes opened, and the scene was terrifying.
Even the marines took a step back instinctively when they saw the grand momentum of the Uchiha.
They felt as if they were facing a group of death warriors unafraid of dying.
In the eyes of the Uchiha, all they could see was war, war.
Nothing else, as if the power suppressed for thirty or forty years...
Was ignited at this moment.
"Slash!"
"Slash!"
"Slash!"
A group of people charged headlong towards the Donquixote Family.
Shikaku Nara followed closely, knowing that some people shouldn't be killed.
So he needed to hold back these killing-obsessed lunatics later.
The Uchiha Clan seemed to have gone mad, charging forward.
The Donquixote Family had fewer people, but they were all officers.
But they had plenty of underlings.
Even though they had the numbers, when facing the Uchiha's blood-red eyes...
Just making eye contact made them tremble in fear.
Some of the more cowardly ones even began to fall into panic.
"Do they think numbers can defeat us?"
Trebol raised his cane and slammed it into the ground.
"Go!"
At that moment, both officers and underlings charged out together.
The battle was intense on the side, with Uchiha Clan's ninjutsu emerging endlessly.
With the Sharingan's coordination, it made their teamwork even easier.
Though Donquixote's taijutsu was strong, they couldn't lift their heads under the firepower suppression.
"Have you given up?"
Raijin glanced over and looked at Doflamingo.
Seeing him so down, has he completely given up?
"Fufufufufu! Give up? How could I!"
Doflamingo laughed loudly.
He raised one hand and aimed it at Raijin.
"Bullet String!"
Bang!
It was like the sound of a gunshot!
A sound of breaking air came from Doflamingo's fingertip.
An invisible attack instantly flew towards Raijin.
"Shing!"
The transparent thread collided with the fan, sparking.
Raijin adjusted the direction, and the transparent thread grazed the fan and shot in another direction.
"Is that all you've got? Are you planning to defeat me with the so-called Birdcage?"
"If you have no other tricks, you'll die here…"
Raijin appeared in front of Doflamingo in an instant.
He raised his Flame Fan and slashed it towards Doflamingo's neck.
"Five Color Strings!"
Doflamingo's face changed drastically, his hand forming a beast claw.
He drew five strings and slashed forward.
"Bang!"
The two collided, and a gust of wind whipped around.
The wind roared around them, their clothes fluttering.
The ground beneath them couldn't withstand the force.
It cracked rapidly!
Boom!
Veins bulged on Doflamingo's forehead as he exerted his strongest power to the extreme.
But even so, this monster in front of him didn't budge an inch.
"A decent ability, but… this is the only compliment I can give you."
Raijin's arm surged with power, and the fan in his hand exploded with strength.
"Bang!"
This force directly sent Doflamingo flying.
Thud thud thud…
Doflamingo rolled on the ground twice and stood up, covered in dirt.
"When a Devil Fruit's ability is developed to the limit, it causes a qualitative change."
"It's been a long time since anyone forced me to use Devil Fruit Awakening."
"This time, let me show you the power of a god."
Doflamingo ignored the dirt on him. He already had a rough understanding of Raijin's power.
Although it's strong, but…
Defeating him with just awakened Haki?
Impossible.
"Whoosh!"
The ground under Doflamingo's feet turned white in patches.
It kept spreading around him.
Wherever Doflamingo stood was the center of the white threads.
