Chapter 243

An intense battle was taking place in the forest intersection.

“Mero Mero Mellow.”

The Empress gestured with her peach heart and fired a pink light wave at Daifuku, who had summoned the helberd.

Daifuku couldn’t dodge in time at all. In an instant, both the helberd and the main body turned into stone statues.

“Well done, Hancock.”

After praising the Empress, Leiyin jumped up and also avoided the Minister of Whipped Cream.

“Bastard, don’t look down on us.”

Oven and Galette didn’t want to fall behind, so they activated their Devil Fruit abilities.

Oven’s body began to heat up rapidly, causing the surrounding air to heat up.

With a wave of his hand, two pieces of yellow-oil-like liquid pounced towards Leiyin like snakes.

The cream tentacle on the ground also attacked Leiyin with the speed of lightning. Leiyin couldn’t dodge in time and was instantly entangled in his hands and feet.

“Heat Denasshi!”

Oven’s fist was like a red-hot soldering iron as it ruthlessly smashed towards Leiyin. As soon as it touched his body, Leiyin was immediately roasted into steam.

“Leiyin!” the Empress shouted anxiously.

This Oven was Netsu Netsu no Mi user. He could control the temperature of his body and cause his body to rapidly rise in temperature. The punch just now had a temperature of over three thousand degrees Celsius. “Haha, what Admiral? This is simply an undeserved reputation!” Oven couldn’t help but be elated when he saw Leiyin being smashed into mist with a single blow.

Katakuri reminded from the side, “Don’t be careless. He’s over there.”

Katakuri pointed with his hand, and Leiyin was squatting on a tree.

The Empress heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Leiyin was safe and sound.

When the ministers saw this, they were all shocked.

Oven said, “Is he a clone Devil Fruit user?”

Of course, they would not understand that the one being roasted into steam was only Leiyin’s shadow clone.

As the few of them hesitated, Leiyin’s eyes had already changed. He had already formed a seal and released a strange giant flame bomb, burning the world to the point where there was nowhere to run!

“Sage Mode — Fire Release –“

“Not good!” Katakuri broke out in a cold sweat. He sensed something extremely terrifying. In the next moment, a fireball as large as a sun poured down, swallowing all the vegetation nearby. Leiyin opened a fire passage and picked up the Empress on the ground. He flew directly into the air. The ministers had no time to dodge and were submerged in the sea of fire. Especially the Bata Bata no Mi user and the Kuri Kuri no Mi. When the two of them encountered this overwhelming fire, they had long been burned to the point of no form.

At this time, the Junction Forest was like a lava hell. The red flames stretched for dozens of kilometers and almost burned to the Sweet City.

This technique was beyond Great Fireball Fire Release technique. It refined the chakra in the body into oil and burned the oil in the mouth. Its power was ten times that of Great Fireball and a hundred times that of ordinary fire bullets. Its power and range were very wide.

At this time.

Charlotte Daifuku, the third son of Big Mom, the Minister of Beans, and the person with the superpower of Hoya Hoya no Mi, were petrified by the Empress.

Charlotte Opera, the fifth son of Big Mom, the Minister of Whipped Cream, and the person with the superpower of Kuri Kuri no Mi, were burned to death.

Charlotte Galette, the sixteenth daughter of Big Mom, the Minister of Butter, and the person with the superpower of Bata Bata no Mi, were burned to death.

Because Oven was a person with the ability to heat up, his body could withstand the high temperature, but he, who was surrounded by the sea of fire, also had difficulty breathing at this time.

In the air, the Empress covered her mouth behind Leiyin, her face full of astonishment. “What kind of destructive power is this? Have they all been burned to death?”

Leiyin swept his Kenbunshoku Haki around. “No, there are two more.”

Sure enough, Katakuri wrapped himself in glutinous rice material and used some unknown ability to step on the air. Even so, some of his hair on his forehead was burned by the flames.

“You damned fellow, what did you do to the Charlotte Family?” Katakuri looked at Leiyin with an extremely fierce gaze, that gaze seemed to want to tear him to pieces.

Towards the furious Katakuri, Leiyin only smiled slightly, “If you had made a move earlier, they might not have died so quickly.”

“Damn fellow, hand over your life!” Katakuri said. His right foot immediately puffed up like a balloon. The legs of “Yanagi Mochi” directly moved towards Leiyin. Because he was carrying the Empress on his back, he used one hand to block the attack. Just like that, he forcefully took the attack that was filled with Busoshoku Haki.

On the ground, a portion of the flames in the small area gradually extinguished and found a flat ground. Leiyin placed the Empress on the ground and said, “Stay here obediently. I’ll go and kill that guy.”

The Empress nodded.

However, from Leiyin’s tone, it was not too easy to describe. Katakuri was not a person. He was the leader of the Four Sweet Commander, a super monster with a bounty of more than one billion Belly. It was really unimaginable to defeat him. However, looking at the scorched ground around him, the Empress was also shocked. If Katakuri was a super monster, then Leiyin was worthy of this title.

The original Admiral of the Marine, now the pirate with a bounty of 9.50 million was not even at the last moment, no one knew what the result was.

Just like this, the Empress listened to Leiyin and quietly sat on the ground, watching the duel between the two powerhouses.

With a woman missing from his back, Leiyin finally relaxed.

After placing the Empress on the ground, Leiyin went straight for the attack. Katakuri didn’t seem to want to give Leiyin a chance to catch his breath. The layer of rice cake quickly expanded behind him. “Nuonuo, shoot randomly with your spear!”

Wrapped in Busoshoku Haki, like a machine gun, Leiyin launched a storm of attacks. Leiyin saw this and made a hand seal, “Wind Release – Vacuum Sphere!”

Hundreds and thousands of air cannons shot out from Leiyin’s hands and collided with Katakuri’s glutinous rice fist. The sound of frying beans constantly came from the void, and the crackling sound was endless.

This move could be considered to be evenly matched, but the power was almost equal.

Both sides landed on the ground and stared at each other. From Katakuri’s move just now, there was only one thought in Leiyin’s mind: This whole enhanced version of Luffy, it was “stretched” and “randomly hit”.
