Chapter 1262: Is Madara Uchiha a Waste?
Bone-chilling cold wind swirled in the air.
Wisps of misty cold air continuously emanated from the twenty-meter-tall humanoid ice sculpture.
With Elder Evra's feet as the center, the ground within a radius of nearly two hundred meters was already covered by a thick layer of frost.
And this was merely the scene caused by the natural diffusion of the ice sculpture's own low temperature.
It was clear how powerful Utgard's Snow-Snow Fruit ability was.
"Hmm?"
Just then, Utgard perceived two surging auras rising not far away.
When he turned his head, two rays of light, one blue and one green, immediately entered his eyes.
At the same time.
On the mountain slope about two kilometers away.
Elder Harald and Elder Svein stood side by side, emitting a bright aura.
Their faces were filled with anger and hatred, and their eyes blazed with intense killing intent.
Utgard was no longer a partner. King Harald had been right; he had betrayed the Elbaf Kingdom.
Since that was the case, there was no need to show mercy!
The moment Utgard's line of sight swept over, their strength had already finished condensing.
With a rapport that could be called synchronization, they roared almost simultaneously.
And at the same time, they swung their kanabo and giant sword, which had long turned pitch black, with full strength.
"Hakoku!!!"
An indescribably huge rumble instantly resounded throughout the entire island and the clouds.
Suddenly, a gale surged, and the surrounding air seemed to be instantly sucked dry.
An invisible yet visible shockwave, carrying an extremely overbearing momentum, charged directly towards Utgard's location.
The ground swept by the shockwave along the way, even at a distance of several meters, was forcefully ploughed into a long, shocking gully.
If this technique were to hit the ground, there was no doubt that this deserted island would be torn apart and disappear forever into the ocean.
Its power was enough to cause considerable damage to an Admiral-level combatant!
Facing such an attack, Utgard glanced at Elder Evra beside him.
Clearly, if he dodged, Elder Evra's body would definitely be blasted by 'Hakoku'.
Although he had killed the other party with his own hands, Utgard still hoped to give him some dignity.
At least to bury a complete body.
Utgard didn't know if Harald and Svein were doing it intentionally or if they were blinded by anger.
But it didn't matter. He hadn't intended to let them go anyway.
For the Giant Tribe of Elbaf to truly integrate into the World Government, these stubborn individuals in high positions had to be eliminated.
Moreover, he knew that Lord Imu must be watching here at this moment.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Utgard's eyes.
The next second.
Outside the island, on the deck of the giant ship where King Harald, Elder Yarul, Surtr, and others were located.
They suddenly saw a blue aura erupt from Utgard, spreading in all directions.
In the blink of an eye, the huge aura expanded into a bowl shape, covering the entire deserted island.
"That is..."
King Harald narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the shockwave that was strangely frozen in mid-air, less than ten meters away from Utgard and the frozen Elder Evra.
Besides that.
He noticed that everything on the island, whether it was the light cast by the sunlight or the cold wind carrying the falling snowflakes.
Even the sea waves along the coastal area of the island, which were within the aura, were all in a state of freeze.
Then they saw Utgard first lift Elder Evra and gently place him away from the shockwave.
Then he transformed into a surging wind and snow and flew to the side of Elder Harald and Elder Svein.
At this moment, they still maintained the posture of swinging their weapons and their hideous and terrifying angry expressions.
"Time Stop? Space Freeze? Isn't the Snow-Snow Fruit a Logia-type Devil Fruit?"
King Harald's expression was ashen, and at the same time, he was completely puzzled.
As the King of Elbaf, although he could get a lot of news from within the World Government, he didn't know everything.
For example, he knew that in the Imperial Arms World, there was a Nine-Tailed White Fox named Hong Lian with combat power comparable to an Admiral.
But what her specific ability was and what techniques she had, he didn't understand.
Or rather, he didn't really care, which was perhaps his inherent arrogance.
How could the King of the Giants of the dignified Elbaf Kingdom deliberately learn about these beasts from Otherworlds?
So, even though the distance between Wano Island and Elbaf was not far.
He never thought of actively contacting Hong Lian and Shen He, these two Super Dangerous Beasts.
And Madara Uchiha, King Harald had watched that live broadcast.
He just saw that Madara couldn't even last two days against Kaido.
At that time, he had disdainfully mocked him as a weak waste.
At the same time, he looked down even more on these so-called experts from Otherworlds.
"That is 'Maha Padoma', the ultimate technique of 'Nine-Tailed White Fox' Hong Lian. Its effect is to freeze space-time within a certain range."
At this moment, Surtr, who was beside him, inexplicably spoke up to introduce it.
King Harald immediately felt ashamed and angry, only feeling that this bastard was mocking him.
But just as he was about to retort, the aura on the deserted island disappeared without a trace.
Everything on it also became lively again.
However.
For Elder Harald and Elder Svein.
They only felt that Utgard and the frozen Evra had suddenly and strangely disappeared in front of the shockwave.
Then they felt gusts of cold wind accompanied by snowflakes hitting their faces.
"What?!"
"How is this possible? When did you..."
Elder Harald and Elder Svein found themselves surrounded by a blizzard.
And Utgard, who was half element-transformed, appeared behind them.
This made them feel a wave-like chill both in their bodies and in their inner hearts.
At this moment.
No one cared that the 'Hakoku' that missed its target flew straight out of the island, carving an increasingly distant dent on the sea surface.
"Sending the two of you on your way. Rest in peace, my former partners..."
"You! You!"
Utgard's chilling voice came. Harald and Svein wanted to open their mouths to say something.
However, the frost spreading up from their necks ruthlessly sealed their throats, finally completely covering their eyes filled with shock and anger.
In the blink of an eye, two more giant ice sculptures over twenty meters tall appeared on the island.
This caused the many giant warriors watching the combat from the sea to fall into dead silence.
No one had expected that the Elders, who seemed so powerful in the past, would one day die three at once, and be instantly killed with no power to resist!
Utgard didn't waste time here.
After completing his duel, he once again transformed into surging wind and snow, carrying the ice sculptures of the three Elders, and flew out of the deserted island with great momentum.
When he arrived next to the giant ship where King Harald and others were.
He casually manufactured a giant ice ship on the sea.
Then he restored human form and landed steadily on the deck, while also placing the Elders' ice sculptures down.
"It's your turn, Surtr."
Utgard ignored King Harald and said to Surtr in a deep voice.
Surtr nodded, then looked at King Harald: "Please, Your Majesty, ascend the island."
Although his words seemed very polite, his voice was filled with undisguised killing intent.
Elder Yarul, who was behind King Harald, had a strange expression.
Because he felt that Surtr was actually saying: "Please, Your Majesty, go to your death!"
King Harald could naturally feel Surtr's killing intent as well.
But as he said before, the warriors of Elbaf never fear combat, and even less fear death.
"I hope you have Utgard's strength, otherwise..."
King Harald gave a cold snort and immediately leaped off the giant ship.
[Boom!]
The powerful strength caused a huge commotion.
The Adam Wood deck was actually stepped on, creating a large hole.
The hundreds of meters long hull shook wildly in the sea, causing considerable chaos among the giants on the ship.
"I never thought that one day, I would have to fight Your Majesty to the death, sigh..."
Surtr looked at King Harald's back and shook his head.
Then, under the attention of Elder Yarul and the other two Elders.
He transformed into a fiercely burning flame, rushed out of the deck, and flew towards the deserted island with great momentum.
To meet this duel, which might be the most memorable one in his life...
