MTLNOVEL Chapter 464 Defeat
Luffy looked at the black-robed figure, his eyes burning with fighting spirit. He grinned and revealed a confident smile: "Humph, don't talk big too soon, we are not that easy to be defeated!" As he said that, he tightened his straw hat, squatted slightly with his legs, and prepared for battle.
Hancock looked at the black-robed figure with contempt and said coquettishly, "Just you? You want to take our lives? You are really overestimating yourself!" She shook her long hair, and the pink light around her body became more and more intense, like a burning flame.
Ling Tian clenched the sword in his hand, his eyes as sharp as an eagle: "Let's see if you want to kill us, or we get rid of you, the mastermind behind this!" His figure swayed slightly, as if he was looking for the best time to attack.
The black-robed figure let out a low laugh: "You guys who don't know how to live or die, then I'll let you taste despair!" He raised his wand and muttered something. The black shadows that emerged from the magic circle were faster, and their bodies became more solid, and their attack power was greatly enhanced.
Luffy took the lead in launching the attack. He shouted, "Rubber rubber - Bazooka!" He stretched his legs together and shot towards the black-robed figure like a cannonball.
Seeing this, the shadows rushed towards Luffy, trying to stop him. Luffy's arms were as flexible as rubber, waving left and right, dispersing the approaching shadows one by one: "Don't try to stop me!"
Hancock was not to be outdone. She jumped high into the air, spinning in the air. The pink light turned into sharp blades: "Fragrant Kicks - Stardust Storm!" Countless pink blades flew towards the black-robed figure and the black shadows. Wherever they went, the black shadows were cut into pieces and scattered on the ground.
Ling Tian seized the opportunity, his figure flashed, and he turned into a white light and rushed into the group of black shadows: "Wind Breaking Slash - Thousand Shattering Shadows!" He swung his sword quickly, and each sword strike accurately hit the vital points of the black shadows. The black shadows dissipated like bubbles under his sword.
The black-robed figure frowned, as if he was a little surprised by their attack. He waved his wand, forming a black shield in front of him, blocking the attacks of Hancock and Ling Tian. Then he looked at Luffy, waved his wand, and a black lightning shot towards Luffy.
Luffy was unable to dodge in mid-air and was hit by the black lightning. His body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground. "Luffy!" Hancock and Ling Tian shouted anxiously.
Luffy got up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "I'm fine, this guy is quite powerful!" He activated the third gear, covered his whole body with armed color domineering, and rushed towards the black-robed figure again: "Rubber rubber - Giant Axe!" His arms became huge and chopped towards the black-robed figure with powerful force.
The black-robed figure sneered: "A mere trifle!" He held the wand in both hands and rushed towards Luffy's attack.
The wand collided with Luffy's arm, making a loud noise, and the powerful impact knocked down the surrounding trees. Luffy's arm was numb from the shock, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.
Hancock and Ling Tian took the opportunity to attack the black-robed figure from both sides.
Hancock cast "Sweet Sweet Wind - Charm Chain!" A pink heart chain wrapped around the black-robed figure, trying to restrict his movements.
Ling Tian used the "Spectral Sword - Yin and Yang Double Slash!" Two sword energies, one black and one white, slashed towards the legs of the black-robed figure.
The black-robed figure sensed the attacks from both sides. He pushed Luffy back with force, then spun his body, his black robe fluttering, forming a powerful airflow that blew away Hancock's love chain and Ling Tian's sword energy.
"Your attacks are too scattered, come at us together!" Luffy shouted at Hancock and Ling Tian.
The three of them looked at each other, nodded, and then rushed towards the black-robed figure at the same time. Luffy attracted the black-robed figure's attention in front, while Hancock and Ling Tian looked for opportunities to attack.
"Rubber rubber - Great Ape King Spear!" Luffy's arm became huge, covered with thick Armament Haki, and smashed towards the black-robed figure fiercely. The black-robed figure concentrated his strength to resist Luffy's attack, but did not notice that Hancock had circled behind him.
"Fragrant Kick - Star Crushing Kick!" Hancock's legs glowed with dazzling pink light as she kicked towards the back of the black-robed figure.
At the same time, Ling Tian also appeared on the side of the black-robed figure: "Breaking Wind Slash - Doomsday Judgment!" A huge colorful sword energy appeared on his sword, integrating his strongest power.
The black-robed figure felt a huge crisis and wanted to dodge, but it was too late. Luffy's attack arrived first, knocking him back a few steps, and then Hancock's attack hit his back, and the black-robed figure spurted out a mouthful of blood. Finally, Ling Tian's sword energy slashed him fiercely, and the black-robed figure screamed, his body was knocked out, and fell heavily into the magic circle.
The magic circle was impacted, the light flickered, and the shadows began to become chaotic. Luffy and his friends took advantage of the victory and ran towards the black-robed figure.
The black-robed figure struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness: "You... You actually managed to force me to this point..." He raised his wand, ready to launch the final attack.
"Everyone be careful!" Luffy shouted. They stopped and looked at the black-robed figure warily.
The black-robed figure inserted the magic wand into the ground and chanted an ancient and mysterious spell. The light in the magic circle became brighter, and the dark clouds in the sky began to swirl, as if forming a huge vortex.
"Darkness is coming - Judgment Day!" The black-robed figure shouted, and a huge black energy column rose from the magic circle and swept towards Luffy and the others. Wherever the energy column went, everything was destroyed, the ground was torn apart, and the trees were reduced to ashes.
Luffy and the others felt this powerful force, but they did not retreat.
Luffy activated Gear Fourth, his body became extremely huge, and red steam emanated from his body: "Rubber, rubber - Ape King Gun? World destruction!" He rushed towards the black energy column. Hancock and Ling Tian also increased their strength to the extreme and followed Luffy.
"We can't lose!" Luffy shouted. Their attacks collided with the black energy column, making a deafening sound. The light and energy intertwined, as if the whole world was illuminated.
After a fierce struggle, they finally withstood the final blow from the black-robed figure. The black-robed figure looked at them, his eyes full of shock and despair, and then his body began to dissipate, turning into dots of black light and disappearing into the air.
As the black-robed figure disappeared, the shadows also dissipated, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the moon reappeared. The people in the camp cheered, celebrating this hard-fought victory.
Luffy released Gear 4 and sat on the ground tiredly, but with a satisfied smile on his face. Hancock and Ling Tian came over and sat beside him.
"We won, Luffy." Hancock said gently, her eyes full of admiration and love as she looked at Luffy.
"Haha, yes, we are the strongest!" Luffy said with a smile.
"However, this time it was really thrilling. I wonder if there will be such enemies in the future." Ling Tian sighed.
"No matter what the enemy is, we will face it together!" Luffy said firmly.
After this battle, their friendship became even deeper. They knew that there would be more challenges waiting for them on the road to pursuing their dreams, but they were fearless because they were partners.
