Chapter 118: Fracture Of Gloom V

...........

"Awakening: Scatter," Yovan murmured, scattering into feathers. This was a battle of darkness and light... The white strings against the darkest of feathers.

"Black Knight!" Doflamingo yelled as he mingled with his webs of strings, appearing... Well, two Doflamingos appeared, looking exactly the same. He somehow created a clone of himself.

Doflamingo and his clone almost instantly turned around, swinging their hands to form a thick barrier of strings, barely able to stop the incoming shockwave.

They had to turn around again as Yovan appeared right behind them, a shroud of feathers protecting him from the snakey strings as he held his blade with one hand while his other still had the Hasshoken sphere.

A shockwave was released from the end of his elbow, pushing his left arm quickly toward the Black Knight, all while his blade was coming down upon the real Doflamingo.

"Flap Threat!!!" The two Doflamingos uttered at the same time as they condensed vast amounts of strings from the Ever White into countless points infused with Armament Haki, "Thousand Arrows!"

They were Thousand Arrows indeed, thousand dangerous arrows sent at Yovan in a formation of two wings.

What Doflamingo failed to expect was Yovan's fighting style... Is it truly a fighting style, or is it the most barbaric insane way to bring about destruction?

Yovan didn't scatter. No, he allowed a thousand Arrows to pierce through him for the simple goal of causing damage.

It thundered again, this time loudly so to the point it shook space. The black Knight found himself taking the full brunt of the Spherical Hasshoken, a sphere of power so condensed it left behind cracks in space.

It wasn't any normal Hasshoken. No, Yovan somehow found a way to infuse his Armament Haki into his Kiryu Hasshoken, a power so great it twisted the black Knight into nothingness, breaking him into unnoticeable parts.

"I almost forgot what pain feels like," Doflamingo remarked already leaping backward, a gloomy look evident on his face.

His entire arm was reeking of Armament Haki, focused entirely on it. Hell, it even shone with a purple glint, a sign of Conqueror Haki, yet, there was still a fairly deep cut on it along with emerald flames.

He was able to defend against Yovan's blade, barely so because what's not apparent is how broken his arm was. All of Yovan's attacks are infused with Hasshoken, the same with his blade, and that's the danger of receiving his offense head-on.

"But wh... You- How?" Just when Doflamingo wanted to wonder why Yovan used no Armament Haki to coat his body and brush off the Thousand Arrows, his eyes picked up something.

Through one of the many holes in Yovan's body as a result of the Armament infused Arrows, Doflamingo could see a speck of his heart, an inky heart somehow infused with Haki.

Armament Haki acts like an external armor, not only increase one's defense but also offense. Never has Doflamingo seen someone use it differently in the entirety of his life.

So how is Yovan able to use it internally? That shouldn't be possible, yet here he was, only protecting his vital organs with very little Haki just for the sake of using the majority of his Haki on the Hasshoken sphere and his blade.

That's not a luxury those who coat their entire body with Haki have nor would they want to have because thousand small holes on your body aren't something just anyone can survive.

Yovan seemed to be a special case even among those with monstrous endurance as not a speck of blood spilled off him. No, all the tiny holes were closed off by a solid inky substance, and Doflamingo could clearly see them healing very quickly.

He was certain it would take more than a minute for all the holes to heal, such a monstrous regeneration... Well, it was not monstrous enough as Yovan remarked, "Go on, have your fill."

He was talking to his blade. There was blood on it, the very little blood it was able to suck out of Doflamingo.

Devouring the blood it did, but like a hungry beast, it was obvious that the blade wanted more as it lit up in emerald flames, some of it swimming into Yovan's hand, and the wounds that would've taken a minute to heal took seconds.

"I can't pinpoint the moment when I became this way, so ravenous for survival yet hovering so close to the edge of the void. It's odd, isn't it? How close to death I tread despite craving life above all else." Yovan murmured.

He was speaking about the way he fights, and the absolute insanity that reeks from it, almost like he seeks to show the world that nothing can take him away... The World doesn't deserve to take him away just yet.

Yovan scattered, undisturbed by the fact that Doflamingo created another clone, another Black Knight. Perhaps he can create them infinitely, but it didn't matter... None of it mattered, something that became evident to Doflamingo soon enough.

Two battles were happenings at the same time. That of Yovan and the two Doflamingos, then there was that of the feathers against the strings, mostly keeping each other out of the equation.

There were however more strings than feathers, so much more in fact that Doflamingo had the luxury of using the strings against Yovan.

His awakening allowed him to basically turn most things into strings, but Yovan also happened to have awakened his Devil Fruit.

"Goshikito!!" Doflamingo and his Black Knight surrounded Yovan from both sides, their speed being only a little bit behind that of Yovan.

They both swiped their hands to slash Yovan with five thick dark strings coming out of their fingers, so he scattered.

The slash of strings found itself faced with nothing but feathers, many feathers. Yovan, on the other hand, appeared above Doflamingo, the real Doflamingo.

Yovan's observation Haki was simply too precise to mix the real Doflamingo with the clone. The blade was hungry for blood, and Yovan acquiesced, bringing it upon Doflamingo along with a Hasshoken sphere.

Now Yovan was the center of the battle as he found himself squished from all sides, one from thick strings trying to push him away, some piercing right through him, then from the other side with feathers under his control, trying to keep him in place.

Then there was of course the barrier of dark strings that Doflamingo created to protect against the attack, especially against the cursed Hasshoken Sphere.

Perhaps Doflamingo expected Yovan's move as he switched easily, sending a thick rope made of condensed strings from his palm, bright from heat.

The whip of strings was steaming from how hot it was, fitting with its name, "Overheat!!!" It was hardened with Haki on top of that, and it was targeting Yovan's heart...

"You maniac!!!" Yet Doflamingo wasn't happy for he hoped Yovan would give up and scatter, yet he didn't despite knowing that his heart might be in danger, the whip was too destructive.

There was a crack in space, and the sky opened up, but this time not because of the Hasshoken sphere. No, it was because of the collision with Conqueror Haki.

Very few took note of it, even from the outside of the Veil of darkness, some could see sparkles, almost breaking through the barrier.

It sparkled purple and golden at the same time... But the purple lightning didn't get much time to shine as it was quickly overwhelmed with the flames of the golden.

The color of Yovan's conqueror Haki was Golden, speaking very much to the golden flames in his eye, and if there is one thing Doflamingo realized that day, his kingly aura was holily outmatched.

He saw absolutely no hope in surpassing the monstrosity that was Yovan's willpower, and deep desires. They weren't ones of desire to rule, they were different and perhaps greater.

Yet It was Yovan who found himself kneeling in the end, all bloody and broken.

Doflamingo still stood high, his face twisted into pure gloom, perhaps because of his atrocious state, or perhaps he realized something.

He wasn't that bloody, especially considering the deep long slash across the entirety of his chest and cracks throughout his body. His clothes were broken and cracked just like his glasses.

There wasn't much blood on him, but there was a lot of his own blood on Yovan's blade as the latter lit up aflame.

"Yahahahaha! Just who do you think I am?" Yovan couldn't help but laugh as he stood up, showing the large hole on his chest, steaming with heat.

The hole was a clear passage to his heart, but his heart was peculiar. While it was before protected with Armament Haki, now the majority of it was made of Armament Haki, pumping blood.

The whip was strong enough to break through the little Haki Yovan coated on his heart, but in the end, it didn't matter for arguably, his greatest achievement took effect, Survival's Instinct.
