Chapter 1376: Doflamingo Takes Action!
"Hmm?"
'Jackal' Chaka suddenly felt a surge of nervousness, as if some danger had appeared behind him.
Over the past few years, he had actually enjoyed the benefits brought by the World Government.
For example, he had learned the Six Powers, as well as the Coating and Hardening of Armament Haki.
However, his Observation Haki had not awakened, as this ability mainly depended on talent.
On the other hand, the other 'Guardian Deity', Pell, had successfully awakened Observation Haki.
One could only say that he truly lived up to his title as the 'Strongest Warrior of Alabasta', being stronger than Chaka.
But as an Animal-Type Ability User, Chaka still possessed exceptional perception.
"This is..."
Chaka spun around abruptly, his pupils contracting sharply.
Because Hank's body, transformed into a 'White Wolf', was rapidly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
To put it more clearly, he was getting bigger, rapidly getting bigger!
"Wow————"
"What's happening with Contestant Hank? He's already ten meters tall, but he's still getting bigger!"
Gaz, the host riding on the back of a Rathalos, exclaimed into the microphone, his face full of astonishment.
The dense audience on the ten-story grandstand were also startled.
Not to mention the ten thousand audience members sitting on the Wind Stone Seats, who were already closer to the Duel Arena.
They had instinctively and hastily moved away from the Duel Arena.
The giant White Wolf inside the Magic Barrier looked simply too terrifying.
Especially its scarlet wolf eyes, which didn't seem to possess normal sanity at all.
What if it directly broke through the surrounding Magic Barrier and rushed out?
At the same time.
The 'White Wolf's' body size was already estimated to be over twenty meters, comparable to an adult Giant Tribe member.
But it was still expanding, thirty meters, forty meters, fifty meters...
If the Elimination Round hadn't allowed the use of the entire Duel Arena, it might not have been able to accommodate it.
Now, the Giant Tribe audience inside the arena had to look up.
"This! This! What should we do?! Should we stop it?!"
Gaz also panicked, quickly asking the 'Competition Organizer' through his earphone.
However, the 'Competition Organizer' couldn't make a decision immediately.
They could only request instructions from Vergo, Doflamingo, and others, but this would definitely take some time.
Of course, Doflamingo, Shanks, and Vergo, sitting on the rostrum, had already seen the specific situation.
"Stop it?"
"Fufufufufufu~, why stop it? It's a rare unexpected surprise!"
Doflamingo laughed, looking at the super giant White Wolf inside the arena, which was already over sixty meters tall and nearly a hundred meters long.
"Let Chaka fight it first. If he loses, then we'll have someone step in to suppress it!"
"Uh, yes, Saint Doflamingo."
The official from the 'Competition Organizing Department' reluctantly agreed upon hearing the instruction.
"It's alright, when necessary, we will take action."
At this moment, Shanks spoke softly to comfort the panicked official.
Then he lowered his head and said to the Eight-Tails Gyuki squatting beside him: "This White Wolf's body size seems similar to yours?"
Eight-Tails Gyuki nodded and said in a booming voice: "It should be slightly larger. I feel it's similar to that guy Kurama."
"I just don't know about its strength, or if it has large-scale destructive techniques like the Tailed Beast Bomb."
"If it does, you'd better suppress it as soon as possible, otherwise those Magic Barriers alone won't be able to stop it."
At the same time.
Brimir, Kaido, Charlotte Linlin, Shen He, Hong Lian, Kurama, and others in their respective Colored Cloud Boxes were also looking at the giant White Wolf that Hank had transformed into with great interest.
They found that things had become interesting...
But for 'Jackal' Chaka, who was right there, facing the giant White Wolf head-on, his mood was terrible at this moment.
He was holding his arm up in front of him, blocking the surging gale, and struggling to keep his footing steady.
"How am I supposed to deal with this kind of guy?!"
Just the sound wave and force generated by a single wolf howl from the opponent made it difficult for him to move.
The ground in front of him was cracking in large areas.
But Chaka knew deeply that he couldn't ask the 'Competition Organizer' to remove the Magic Barrier and let him leave.
Otherwise, it would definitely cause unacceptable threats to the hundreds of thousands of audience members around.
Although he was an 'Alabasta Guardian', he wouldn't just protect Alabasta.
So Chaka believed that he needed to resolve this loss of control and rampaging Hank by himself right now.
Thinking of this, 'Jackal' Chaka noticed that the wind and waves were starting to subside.
[Bang bang bang bang...]
Immediately, he stomped hard with his feet, using the invisible air repeatedly, gritting his teeth and charging towards the head of the giant werewolf.
[Swish!]
The next moment, the long saber in his hand was swung out fiercely, instantly forming a deep blue Flying Slash Attack.
"Roar————"
Chaka's blade successfully attracted the giant White Wolf's attention.
But it was bitten and exploded by the latter, then completely sucked into its body, disappearing without a trace.
"It actually ate the Flying Slash Attack!" Chaka was incredibly astonished.
This scene also left the entire audience dumbfounded.
Immediately after, they witnessed Chaka being swatted to the ground by the giant werewolf's claw.
[Boom!!!]
"Mr. Chaka————"
Within the Alabasta Kingdom, countless populace members instinctively let out anxious cries.
King Cobra, Queen Ti Ti, as well as Igaram, Pell, and others in the royal palace, who no longer held royal authority, were also greatly shocked.
Especially when the giant werewolf raised its wolf claw.
Chaka, who was covered in blood, completely 'embedded' in the shattered ground, and whose eyes had rolled back, reappeared in everyone's vision.
The entire Alabasta seemed to fall into dead silence.
"Not good!"
"Contestant Chaka has fallen into a coma! This should be considered a defeat!"
"Contestant Hank, you can't continue attacking him!"
Gaz, riding on the back of the Rathalos, immediately shouted a loud warning into the microphone.
Although he also felt that Hank was no longer listening at this point.
As expected.
The giant White Wolf completely ignored Gaz. Discovering that Chaka on the ground still had signs of life, it raised its wolf claw again, intending to completely crush him to death.
Because Hank's obsession before losing rationality was to defeat Chaka.
In the giant White Wolf's animalistic understanding, defeating meant completely killing him.
After killing him, of course, it would be free to move around. Weren't there a bunch of 'ants' outside this barrier?
"He's really lost control, this is bad..."
Cain's expression in the Colored Cloud Box was pale. He didn't know how the World Government would deal with Hank if he really caused casualties or excessive destruction.
"Hank..."
Elaine was even more at a loss, only able to stare intently at the giant werewolf.
In another Colored Cloud Box, Charlotte Linlin's voice rang out.
"Are you going to take action?"
Kaido nodded: "Ah, I'm an Air Force Admiral now, so I definitely can't just watch it run wild."
"Then don't hit too hard. The World Government probably doesn't want him to just die like this, Mamamama~"
As she spoke, Charlotte Linlin laughed.
"Hmm, I estimate one Thunder Bagua should be enough to knock him out."
Kaido sneered: "If he can't even withstand that and dies, then he can only blame himself for being too weak."
"Uncle Kaido, go for it!"
"Father, go for it! Don't lose!"
Ace and Yamato were incredibly excited, cheering for Kaido.
Mainly because they didn't have a concrete concept of high-end combatants at the moment.
Seeing how huge the White Wolf was, and how it had just knocked out Chaka with one palm, they felt that Kaido might have a difficult fight.
"Wororororo~"
Kaido immediately burst into laughter: "I won't lose! Just watch... Hmm?"
But before he could finish speaking, he noticed that someone outside had already taken action.
He saw that the giant werewolf's raised wolf claw couldn't be swung down at all at this moment.
Even its entire body couldn't move.
But looking at its ferocious expression and the roar it emitted from its mouth, it was clearly not voluntary.
"Tch, what a busybody!"
Kaido let out a displeased cold snort, then plopped back down onto the soft cloud sofa.
He still wanted to show off in front of the two kids.
At the same time.
A voice full of playful meaning, like mockery, echoed.
It resounded throughout the Multiverse Duel Arena and reached the ears of all the audience.
"Fufufufufufu~ Fufufufufufu~"
"Alright, the performance ends here. It's time for the little wolf to return to its cage..."
On the rostrum, Doflamingo was seen laughing, holding up his dexterous right hand with five fingers.
As soon as his voice fell, everyone saw a large amount of black-red lightning generated out of thin air from his right hand.
These lightning bolts rapidly spread upwards along fine threads that were difficult to see with the naked eye.
Then they turned at the highest point and fell towards the giant White Wolf, which was still struggling desperately.
[Bang——————]
When the Magic Barrier covering the top of the Duel Arena came into contact with these lightning bolts, it instantly shattered like fragile glass.
Then, along the fine threads, it fell onto various parts of the giant White Wolf's body.
"Roar!!! Roar!!!"
The giant wolf suddenly let out an extremely tragic wail, and at the same time, its body size began to shrink rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Until it turned back into the naked, coma-stricken Hank.
On the rostrum.
"Such strong Conqueror's Haki..."
Shanks' gaze was solemn as he stared at Doflamingo in front of him.
He realized that he had always underestimated the opponent's strength.
And the opponent's string just now had silently passed through the Magic Barrier, which was incredible...
