Chapter 170 Mutation
Watching Whitebeard's action, Nicholas's pupils contracted, and his heart couldn't help but pause for a moment.
Driven by instinct, Logia Type Elementalization began to transform, and Lightning light burst forth from his whole body.
Then, an extremely dangerous Aura suddenly approached, making Nicholas's Observation Haki see only a vast expanse of white.
Fast! Too fast!
Almost at the moment Whitebeard threw a punch, countless Cracks appeared in the Space surrounding Nicholas, like glass.
The Attack issued by Whitebeard, who was exploding with Power, made the Speed of the Crack in the Sky unparalleled, and it almost instantly arrived In front of Nicholas.
"Buzzing!"
And in Nicholas's Eyes, everything before his eyes was trembling, all Things were in Vibration, and Surge Power squeezed in from all around, making Nicholas's Lightning-transformed hair fly wildly.
"Crack!"
Then Space shattered, and in Nicholas's Perspective, the world shattered as if it were glass. Whitebeard, even the Moby Dick on the distant Sea, the Oro Jackson, and everyone on the Ship were like reflections in a broken Mirror, falling apart.
Then that Attack carrying magnificent Vibration Power already hit Nicholas's Form with a bang.
Facing an Attack that sealed off the dodge Space, Nicholas was unable to dodge, and he fundamentally could not dodge this Attack!
"Boom!"
In an instant, Nicholas's consciousness fell into blankness, as if his whole being was hammered to pieces. He solidly received Whitebeard's Attack.
"Rumble!"
As Whitebeard's Attack landed, Space seemed to be shattered, the Ground kept vibrating, and the Ground hummed and trembled, making a deafening sound.
Immediately afterward, spider web-like Cracks spread out in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant, they formed a giant Chasm.
"Crack crack crack!"
The Island, which had already suffered greatly from the battle between the two, finally couldn't hold on any longer. The outermost area of the Island began to collapse and sink into the Sea, and huge Cracks were dividing the Island, with seawater constantly gushing out along the Cracks.
"The Island is shattered!"
"Old Man!"
The sheer Power contained in shattering such a large Island is shocking.
"Hey, Captain, that Nicholas guy isn't dead, is he?"
Jabba reached out and put his hand on his forehead, looking towards the Island.
He couldn't imagine what Nicholas's State would be after suffering such a terrifying blow from Whitebeard. Even he, if he took Whitebeard's terrifying Attack head-on, would probably be half-dead if not completely dead.
"He's not that easy to kill. If Logia Type were that easy to kill, Logia-type Devil Fruit User wouldn't be called the most difficult Enemy to kill on the Sea."
Rayleigh said indifferently.
"Sigh."
While Rayleigh and Jabba were talking, Roger sighed, which immediately made Jabba and Rayleigh look over curiously.
"If I had known it was so interesting, I should have joined in just now."
Roger looked at the shattered Island and couldn't help but say regretfully.
Rayleigh and Jabba directly turned their heads and continued to watch the Battlefield after hearing their Captain's words.
Whitebeard's Attack stirred up gusts of Gale.
When the Dust Cloud dissipated and the Island shattered, Lightning was still flashing in the Sky above the Island. The Residual Power of the two's great battle had already affected the entire Island.
Whitebeard looked at the Cracks slowly disappearing in the Sky, let out a breath, grasped the Naginata stuck in the Ground beside him, and pulled it out.
Lowering his head and glancing at his body covered in wounds, Whitebeard's Eyes became solemn.
Nicholas's Strength was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.
The sound of wind whistling in his ears, and Dust hitting Whitebeard's burly Form.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the Dust Cloud finally dissipated, and the scene in the Dust Cloud was reflected in Whitebeard's Eyes.
"Cough cough cough!"
Suddenly, a violent cough entered his ears, making Whitebeard's gaze froze.
"You actually withstood it!"
Whitebeard said in surprise.
Nicholas was still alive, but his State was quite bad. At this time, he had fallen to the Ground, kneeling on one knee and supporting himself on the Ground with his hand, coughing up large mouthfuls of Blood. Many Blood flowers fell on the Ground, like blooming plum blossoms, stunning yet poignant.
His face was pale, and many parts of his body were bloody and blurred. In some places, even white Bone could be seen. These were all places that were cut off by the Cracks generated when Whitebeard shook the void just now, and they looked a bit terrifying.
"Huff huff!"
Nicholas gasped for breath, his nostrils filled with the Flavor of rust and heat.
It could be said that Whitebeard's blow was the most serious Injury he had ever suffered!
"Newgate!"
Along with the heavy breathing, Nicholas's voice came out. Then Nicholas, supporting himself with his trembling legs, stood up. His body swayed several times before he stood firm.
Suddenly, he raised his head, and in his Eyes, there was an incomparably hot Flame burning.
At this time, Nicholas's Fighting Spirit had reached its Peak, and his whole body's blood was burning to the extreme.
Even if the opponent was Whitebeard, even if he was at his strongest moment in his life, standing at the top of this Sea, he would still fight him to his heart's content!
"Gura la la la, you can still stand up, Lightning Brat!"
"This level of Strength wants to knock me down, but it's still far from enough!"
The two, one tall and one short, stared at each other, their breathing sounding heavy and deep.
Whether it was Lightning or Vibration Power, both were incomparably powerful forces in nature.
Two forces that were originally impossible to intersect collided together at this moment.
"Zi la!"
After a moment, dazzling Radiance shone on Nicholas's body again, and blue Electric Arc raged around him, surrounding his body.
"Newgate! Don't disappoint me!"
Nicholas's voice containing fiery Fighting Spirit came out, making Whitebeard's Eyes froze, and then he also said without showing weakness.
"Lightning Brat, you will definitely fall before Old Man!"
Whitebeard waved the Naginata in his hand, and Dust swept up from the Ground. With Nicholas's Fighting Spirit, his Fighting Spirit also became more and more vigorous.
"Be careful, Newgate!"
After Nicholas finished speaking, he closed his Eyes. The heavy Injury just now and the fierce confrontation made him a little weak, but his spirit and Will also reached their Peak at this moment.
"Hmm?"
"Hmm?"
At the same time, Roger and Whitebeard keenly noticed some kind of change around them and in Nicholas, but they couldn't tell what kind of change it was for a while.
Suddenly, Nicholas, who was standing there, opened his Eyes, and as Lightning flashed in his Eyes, magnificent Power and Aura suddenly spread out.
Sharp and violent Lightning suddenly swelled at this moment, and at the same time, the violent Aura of destroying everything spread to the surroundings like a giant sandstorm. Even Whitebeard flashed his Form and retreated a distance.
Facing Nicholas at this moment, he was very Apprehension, because Nicholas gave him a different feeling.
If the previous Form of Nicholas was Demigod Mode, then the current Nicholas was Thunder God!
"This is, Conqueror's Haki!?"
Rayleigh and Jabba looked at each other and said in surprise. Obviously, the huge oppressive feeling that was coming towards them could only be done by Conqueror's Haki.
"This range of Conqueror's Haki is not something you can withstand. Quickly move the Ship further away."
Marco looked at many Crew member who had rolled their Eyes and fallen down on the Ship and said loudly.
"No, that's not Conqueror's Haki."
Roger stared intently at the direction of the Island and said in a deep voice. As a top Conqueror's Haki possessor on the Sea, he could easily judge that the Aura spreading around from the direction of the Island was not Conqueror's Haki.
"That is something even more terrifying than Conqueror's Haki."
Roger's expression was quite serious, because in his perception, Nicholas's Aura seemed to have completely changed, or even become a completely different Aura.
In the Island, Whitebeard personally witnessed the State of Nicholas in front of him, changing rapidly, and even this change made Whitebeard feel shocked.
"Zi zi zi!"
In the midst of Electric Arc guards, Nicholas's Form was wrapped in dazzling Purple Lightning. His size did not change, but the clothes on his body were rapidly changing. Soon the clothes on his body turned into robes woven from Lightning in myths. As the ribbons fluttered, they quickly outlined mysterious runes and engraved them on them.
At the same time, the Thunder Pattern on Nicholas's body became more Complex, and the terrifying Injury on his body before was also rapidly healing.
Soon Nicholas, like the Thunder God, floated In front of Whitebeard, making his Eyes widen and his Heart shake.
