Chapter 929: I'll Make You Feel Agonizing Pain!
Chapter 929: I'll Make You Feel Agonizing Pain!
The sudden emergence of the crimson domain sent a collective shiver through every soul present, including Kas hidden within the mist. Even he shuddered involuntarily.
"What is this?"
Daidon jolted upright, recoiling further back as her nine tails instinctively encircled her defensively. Her body trembled, her fur quivering—not from willpower, but from primal fear of death itself.
"Ugh!"
Basque Shot belched violently, his flushed face gradually regaining composure as the killing intent jolted him sober.
"Fate..."
Van Augur lowered his gun, closing his eyes. "Doesn't seem to be on our side."
"Kekeke! Evil laughter!"
Marshall D. Teach's cackle faltered, cold sweat pouring down his temples. "What terrifying killing intent, Kuro!"
"You'll witness far worse!"
Kuro tightened his grip on the Yokai Blade and surged forward.
Whoosh!
In an instant, he vanished.
Marshall D. Teach froze, then jolted sideways in a desperate dodge.
Hiss!
The next moment, a crimson geyser erupted from his shoulder, a blade scar flashing from shoulder to waist before vanishing.
Marshall D. Teach grunted, clutching his shoulder and rolling across the ground. Before he could cry out, his expression shifted. Fists clenched, he suddenly punched forward.
Boom!
The air shattered, releasing a violent shockwave that revealed Kuro mid-strike, blade raised toward the collapsing Marshall D. Teach.
"Air Shock!"
Marshall D. Teach's fist intensified the shockwave, freezing Kuro momentarily. Eyes blazing, Kuro swung the Yokai Blade with tremendous force, leaving a crimson arc in its wake.
Hiss!
The blade sliced across Marshall D. Teach's neck, spewing blood. Twisting in pain, the pirate's fist erupted with darkness. "Dark Water!"
But before the technique could manifest, Kuro vanished from sight.
Marshall D. Teach leapt up, face contorted grotesquely, clearly enduring unimaginable agony.
Agony!
This wasn't like the previous slashes—clean, swift pain that faded. Now, though no wounds remained, the sensation of countless ants gnawing at his flesh persisted, intensifying with each heartbeat.
His pain tolerance was twice that of an ordinary man!
"You can't kill me with mere cuts!"
A voice boomed from above. Marshall D. Teach's fist smashed upward, unleashing a violent shockwave.
"You're just a pain sponge!"
The voice shifted behind him. Another wild punch—air again.
Kuro materialized directly ahead, Yokai Blade arcing through Marshall D. Teach's chest, carving a gaping wound across his upper torso. The force could cleave an ordinary man in two.
"Kgh! It hurts!!"
Marshall D. Teach screamed, clutching his chest and writhing on the ground.
"Only this will make you feel true anguish", Kuro sneered down at him. "Pain is the point. Without it, my killing intent would be wasted."
No abilities were used—just raw, bone-deep killing intent. Hallucinations wouldn't work against this brute. Kuro's "Killing Intent Phantasm" required ability synergy, which Marshall D. Teach could nullify with his Dark-Dark Fruit powers. Otherwise, Kuro would've unleashed both long ago.
But the bone-deep agony was already sufficient.
"You!!!"
Marshall D. Teach's fist expanded with white rings as he punched forward.
Boom!
The G-3 fortress shuddered violently, rubble cascading as walls crumbled and the ground fractured. Simultaneously, his other hand clawed at the air, grasping an invisible force before yanking sideways.
Roar!
The sea surged violently, forming a towering tsunami that crashed toward them!
"Dark Water!"
Following the shockwave, Marshall D. Teach's fist erupted with dark energy, dragging Kuro toward him.
Abilities were absolute—Grand Line law.
Whether this technique worked on ordinary humans was unknown, but it certainly affected Devil Fruit users. As one himself, Kuro would be helplessly pulled in if caught.
But before capture, Kuro still had his chance.
"Who authorized this tsunami?!" Kuro's eyes narrowed. Palm outstretched, he unleashed his power. The tsunami collapsed instantly, crashing into the sea and scattering raindrops across the battlefield.
His form streaked toward Marshall D. Teach, Yokai Blade gleaming gold. "Azure Dragon!"
Hiss!
The blade cleaved from left shoulder to right hip, leaving a bleeding scar. Though quickly healed, Marshall D. Teach's eyes bulged, jaw grinding as he barely suppressed a scream. Kuro's form closed in—just a little more, and he'd be within killing range!
"Shadow Revolution!"
Suddenly, a black shadow erupted from the earth, merging with Marshall D. Teach's shadow. The darkness dissipated, and his body froze mid-strike.
"This is..." Marshall D. Teach's eyes widened. "Gecko Moria!!!"
"Shishishi! Shrimp Shrimp!"
From his shadow, Gecko Moria's form emerged, cackling. "Marshall D. Teach! You killed Absalom—you really thought I'd truly ally with you? I've always wanted you dead! Shadow Horn Spear!"
A shadowy spear pierced Marshall D. Teach's chest.
Blood dripped from his lip, but he couldn't move. At that moment, Kuro—already drawn close by the pull—struck again, cleaving him down.
"Explode, Azure Dragon!"
Hiss!
Marshall D. Teach collapsed, blood soaking his body like a crimson bath, transforming him into a blood-soaked wraith.
"If you won't die, I'll make you suffer until your strength collapses from pain alone!" Kuro's eyes burned with malice. Fingers trailing his blade, he prepared to unleash the full Azure Dragon.
Suddenly, black smoke erupted from Marshall D. Teach. Gecko Moria's shadow was expelled, dark energy severing his grip on the Dark-Dark Fruit's power.
Boom!
Marshall D. Teach's fist slammed the ground, shaking the battlefield. In the tremor, his body vanished.
"Huh?"
Kuro blinked, his strike slicing empty air.
"It's Shiryu."
Through the shockwave, Dracule Mihawk sheathed his blade calmly. "He's vanished too."
