Chapter 130: Brief Glimpse of the Future

On the other side of the battlefield, Torebopu continuously used his Color of Observation Haki to evade the enemy's slashes while keeping an eye on Diavolo's situation.

Torebopu's opponent was a swordsman wielding a long sword, and the battle scene was almost identical to Diavolo's situation:

Torebopu created large amounts of slime, continuously compressing the opponent's space to move.

The opponent kept chasing him, slashing with sword energy!

The only difference was that his slime did not possess the resilience of "Redbeard's" hair, so it couldn't defend against the enemy's slashes.

But Torebopu had mastered Color of Observation Haki and used the properties of the slime to swiftly dodge the opponent's attacks, leaving the sword-wielding pirate captain frustrated.

Of course, with the strength of this pirate captain, if he managed to land a hit with his sword, Torebopu would be defeated instantly.

It was a contest between evasion and hitting!

As for the pirate captain who used "Flame Dual Blades," he was deliberately forced to the edge of the battlefield by Blueno at the beginning of the battle.

Vergo was engaged in a "man versus metal" duel with a short captain who wielded a hammer weighing 10 tons, which was equivalent to 20,000 pounds. Steel and muscles clashed crazily, and it was a test of who could hold out longer.

As for the last combat-oriented captain, he had already gained the upper hand against Pickles.

These captains, whose strength approached 100 million Berries after taking drugs, made all the executives of the Donquixote Family struggle.

In the top-level hall,

"What on earth is going on?"

The situation here was even more brutal, and Rosinante and Doflamingo were both heavily injured.

After all their attacks failed to hit, Doflamingo, Buffalo, the Minotaur warrior Rode, and even the mare-like girl Lil' Oars Jr. all made probing attempts against the sinister man named "Kyou."

But regardless of Doflamingo's countless threads, the Minotaur warrior's powerful punches, or the mare-like girl's electrical kicks, all of them failed miserably!

"Hehehe, in the face of my 'Demon-Breaking Eight Formations,' your attacks are all in vain."

The so-called "Demon-Breaking Eight Formations" was more than just culinary skills!

Although the sinister man here was arrogant, he indeed had the capital for it. Rosinante and the others couldn't do anything to him, which was the best proof.

Once a master mastered the Color of Observation Haki, evading ordinary attacks became a piece of cake.

But everyone present had also mastered Color of Observation Haki, so theoretically, reading each other's movements would lead to a head-on confrontation. However, Rosinante and the others' attacks were all dodged by the enemy even though they used this ability.

Moreover, this man named "Kyou" was not faster than Rosinante or Lil' Oars Jr. The difference was that—

"He started evading our attacks before we even launched them. This is not something that ordinary Color of Observation Haki can achieve."

They took turns attacking, yet none of them could touch the man's clothes, let alone harm him. Even Doflamingo was beginning to doubt himself, and he thought rapidly about how the man accomplished this:

Devil Fruit?

Advanced Color of Observation Haki?

Or...

"Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Feng Shui?"

The heavily injured Rosinante glanced across the entire hall. Perhaps others would consider the long and short "crossbars" on the floor and the five-colored gems on the walls as decorations, but Rosinante knew the true nature of these symbols:

[there are some random symbol , I can't uplaod them ]

This was the "Bagua Diagram"!

Combined with the man's self-destructive technique called "Demon-Breaking Eight Formations," then—

"I think I understand how he's doing it."

?!

Facing the puzzled expressions of Doflamingo, Lil' Oars Jr., Buffalo, and the Minotaur warrior, Rosinante slowly sheathed his Third Generation Kikoku and assumed a stance as if he were drawing his sword.

"Let me try,"

With his sword-drawing stance, Rosinante faced the sinister man standing proudly in the center of the hall. He took a deep breath, cleared his mind of confusion, and his Haki surged, mixing with the demonic aura of his cursed sword. It was as if he wanted to paint his entire body with a canvas of death and destruction.

If they couldn't harm this sinister man, there was no need to mention the even stronger golden-haired youth next to him. If they were defeated here, the entire Donquixote Family would be annihilated.

Swish,

With a step forward, all his Haki, strength, and conviction converged into his hands and flowed into the Third Generation Kikoku at his waist.

Hum, hum, hum,

With a forward leap, the Third Generation Kikoku at Rosinante's waist emitted a resounding vibration, as if it couldn't wait to be unsheathed and taste blood.

"It's useless...?!"

Just as Rosinante took his first step, the sinister man "Kyou" had already begun adjusting his posture. No matter how strong or fast this strike was, he had the confidence to dodge it.

At this moment, an intense foreboding suddenly welled up within Kyou, as if everything was a chessboard under his control and someone had brutally slapped it.

Damn, this guy—

The Third Generation Kikoku at Rosinante's waist suddenly unsheathed, but it wasn't aimed at the sinister man Kyou. Instead, it was aimed at the spot where he was standing.

"Fūrin - Sky Strike!"

A visible shockwave, like ripples, rapidly spread out from the Third Generation Kikoku.

Wherever the shockwave passed, the floor seemed to be cut with sharp blades, creating cracks visible to the naked eye. The entire floor sank at a speed one could see, shattering!

In the air, there were echoes of "hum, hum, hum," and the sound reverberated back and forth in the hall. On the solid walls around them, there were sudden lightning-like cracks appearing out of nowhere.

Even though it was a longsword, it unleashed a "range-crushing attack" like a heavy weapon!

And most importantly, the Third Generation Kikoku didn't even touch any objects. The real source of the damage was the Haki that Rosinante unleashed with all his might.

Boom!

Faced with Rosinante releasing his Haki in one breath, the sinister man Kyou's face flashed with a hint of struggle. Ultimately, he followed his instincts and leaped backward to evade!

Thud,

The missed "Sky Strike" caused the spot where Kyou had been standing to explode and crater. If this room hadn't been constructed with special materials, an ordinary building would have collapsed under Rosinante's strike.

"Huff... huff..."

A miss, and Rosinante, who had expended a tremendous amount of Haki, staggered. But his face revealed a satisfied smile that said, "I knew it."

?!

"Why are you smiling—"

Kyou, who had been wearing a sinister smile since the beginning of the battle, had his expression changed to annoyance, demanding answers from Rosinante.

However, within his annoyance, there was a trace of panic.

"I'm smiling because I'm currently in the 'Center Palace,' just as I thought."

Although he had depleted more than half of his Haki and his condition had severely deteriorated, Rosinante was delighted.

"Qian Palace, Kun Palace; Zhen Palace, Gen Palace; Li Palace, Kan Palace; Dui Palace, Xun Palace..."

As Rosinante spoke each line, Kyou's face grew progressively uglier. By the end, his entire face turned black, leaving Doflamingo and the others watching in bewilderment.

Clang,

Rosinante tapped the ground with the Third Generation Kikoku. He looked at Kyou, whose face had darkened as if it were about to drip, and asked, "And I am currently in the Kan Palace, which signifies water and the concept of being submerged... Are you preparing to use poison?"

"Heh, and you claimed not to be from the Flower Country?!"

Having his secret exposed by Rosinante, Kyou prepared to go all out.

He extended his hand to his weapon, a knife that was actually one of the "Big Knife" series. He wiped the jet-black fresh blood on the blade, turning this "Big Knife" into a pitch-black weapon of lethal poison.

This wasn't Haki, but it was a venomous attack that could rival the powers of a Devil Fruit.

"Come, let me show you my true strength—"

Hoo,

After taking a deep breath, Rosinante, who was positioned in the Center Palace, felt that his senses were clearer than ever before. Even the Color of Observation Haki, which extended from his senses, miraculously received a boost!

Rosinante "saw" the future.

"Come—"

Swoosh,

"Ei-Ryo: Annihilation of Souls!"

As soon as Rosinante spoke, Kyou, who had been gathering his strength, had already leaped toward him! The knife in his hand created a feRosinanteous and poisonous black dragon, with bared fangs and sharp claws.

Splurt,

Blood spurted out, and just as Doflamingo and the others were still amazed by Kyou's poisonous strike, the outcome had already been decided.

The Third Generation Kikoku pierced through the sinister man's chest!

The venomous "Ei-Ryo Blade" hovered beside Rosinante, and the pitch-black poison was blocked by Rosinante's invisible Haki, despite the almost imperceptible gap between them. It was an insurmountable barrier.

"This..."

Doflamingo and the others were puzzled. This man called Kyou had wielded his knife fiercely and venomously, and yet, before Rosinante, it strangely veered off course, leaving Kyou to dash straight into it. Rosinante didn't even dodge; he simply thrust the Third Generation Kikoku forward and pierced his opponent.

This was no longer a battle; it was child's play!

Spurt,

"My 'Demon-Breaking Eight Formations'...!"

Spitting out a mouthful of black blood, Kyou, who had experienced the full power of his secret technique for the first time, finally understood the mentality of those top experts who had died in his formation.

"I have to apologize for my previous attitude."

On the other side, the golden-haired and silver-eyed youth, who had been observing silently like a withered leaf, finally took action.

"Kyou, you're worth remembering. So—"

Raising one foot, he suddenly brought it down with force.

Rumble!

The solid floor, which had just experienced the intense battle of Rosinante and the others, was suddenly shattered with a single step, creating countless huge cracks that shot in all directions.

The floor, the walls, the ceiling... this hall, which had been constructed by the dark chef Kyou with a lot of time, money, and represented the crystallization of his wisdom, was—

Shattered!
