CHAPTER 159: CHAPTER 159: DEFEAT IS IMMINENT, THE SUPERMAN’S BODY OF STEEL

"BIG-MOM was sent flying again!"

"Such fast speed! I can’t see the Dragon Knight’s movement trajectory at all."

"That blue-white meteor, is that the legendary strongest Logia, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?!"

"Too strong! As expected of Lord Dragon Knight!"

".........."

Seeing Charlotte Linlin being sent flying again, the world was in an uproar once more.

From the start of the battle until now, it had only been a little over ten minutes.

But the power displayed by Karl and Charlotte Linlin had continuously shattered the worldview of the people of the world.

Even some pirates who were dominant in the Four Seas, or were considered strong in both halves of the Grand Line, felt insignificant.

Just the initial contest of monstrous strength was a force that countless weaklings and powerhouses could not withstand.

After being wrapped in Armament Haki, it was as if they were existences of another dimension.

There were also various clashes of shockwaves, and duels of Devil Fruits...

The battle of just over ten minutes had made the people of the world realize what a terrifying existence the pinnacle of the world was!

Rumble rumble...

While the world was exclaiming in surprise.

A loud, earth-shaking sound suddenly came from the Den Den Mushi’s megaphone.

The sound was extremely loud and ear-piercing, as if one were there in person.

In the live broadcast, the large, uninhabited island floating in the air below, which was moving slowly, suddenly began to tremble violently.

Like an earthquake, cracks spread out.

The already cracked earth, due to the battle between the two, had its cracked area expand again.

Soon, a scene that once again left the world dumbfounded appeared on the screen.

A rock giant, like Pica’s Stone-Stone Fruit, slowly rose from the ground amidst the earthquake that was affecting the entire island.

An anthropomorphic face also appeared on the rock giant’s head.

And on its shoulder stood Charlotte Linlin, who, apart from the dried blood at the corner of her mouth, was not seriously injured.

As one of the natural-born monsters, Charlotte Linlin’s tough body, just like her name, possessed the world’s top-tier defense and recovery power.

Even when hit by the highest level of application of Armament Haki, the internal destruction, she only spat out blood at the moment of injury.

But soon, that little injury would heal quickly.

Just like Kaido, no matter how serious his internal injuries were, he would recover after a single sleep.

Such defense and recovery power could only be compared to that of a Mythical Zoan.

But Karl had an even greater advantage.

When seriously injured, as long as he ate a meal, he would quickly be back to full health.

He didn’t even need to sleep.

"...A foolish act!"

Looking at the rock giant that was like a great mountain, Karl rarely curled his lip, and his evaluation of Charlotte Linlin in his heart suddenly plummeted.

As expected of the weakest and most brainless existence among the Four Emperors.

To not use her abilities properly, but instead to expend a large amount of stamina to create this kind of physical-type Homie to deal with him, was simply the height of foolishness.

Karl also suddenly realized that the other party had reached this stage purely by relying on her natural talent.

Immediately, Karl decided to let Charlotte Linlin see what was called—a waste of effort!

And so...

Karl transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot into the sky with Lightning Teleport.

"Prometheus..."

"Yes, Mama!"

Looking at Karl flying up from below, Charlotte Linlin shouted with a ferocious smile.

Prometheus, who had been covering her hair, immediately detached and transferred to the rock giant’s arm.

In an instant, golden flames covered the rock giant’s entire arm.

The rock giant raised its arm and slapped down a sky-covering palm of fire.

This scene, in the eyes of Doflamingo and the people of the world, was a large-scale attack with great visual impact.

However, many rational powerhouses who knew the strength of a Logia shook their heads.

"That stupid woman, after so many years, she hasn’t improved at all!"

Especially Kaido, who had suffered greatly from the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, curled his lip in disdain.

"The outcome is decided."

On the Moby Dick, Whitebeard, who was having a banquet with his sons and daughters, drinking and eating meat while watching the live broadcast, couldn’t help but shake his head.

As former members of the Rocks Pirates, both Kaido and Whitebeard knew that Charlotte Linlin’s strength was entirely dependent on her innate monster physique and her extremely powerful Paramecia Soul-Soul Fruit...

But her combat experience and combat awareness could only be described as clumsy.

Although this clumsiness was relative to powerhouses of the same level.

But with her innate monster physique being inferior to another natural-born monster, and now having expended so much stamina to create this kind of useless Homie to deal with a Logia user...

In the eyes of the super-powerful, her defeat was imminent.

As expected...

Looking at the sky-covering palm of fire, which contained both physical and elemental damage and could instantly kill a large number of New World powerhouses, Karl didn’t even have the thought of dodging by elementalizing.

His body, like a bolt of lightning, Karl didn’t even shatter this flame palm with his fists and feet like he did with the giant flame slash before.

He chose a simple and crude method, directly headbutting the flame palm.

Boom————!

Under the deafening loud bang, Karl was not, like a mosquito, slapped down or burned to ashes by the giant flame palm.

On the contrary, Karl, transformed into a blue-white meteor, pierced through the rock giant’s palm, and once again flew in front of the wide-eyed Charlotte Linlin. He smashed another fist into her face, sending her crashing from the rock giant’s shoulder to the ground.

As a natural-born monster of the new era, and having completed his third evolution, Karl’s first trait, Body of Steel, had long since evolved. Besides the attacks of powerhouses of the same level, he could ignore any elemental and physical attacks.

Flames could not make him feel scorching heat, and water pressure could not make him feel heavy.

A hail of bullets could not leave any red marks on his body, and the giant blades of the giant race would only be shattered.

Even a swordsman’s "cut of steel," if they were not a master, could not leave any trace on his body.

Now, in his superhuman form using Life Return and the electric current method, Karl’s strength had broken the limits of the human body.

Never mind a flame palm that was not as good as a great mountain; even if a rock giant not much different from a great mountain were to smash down, Karl, without elementalizing to dodge, would not suffer any damage.

His Body of Steel, just like the Superman of American comics, was invulnerable to blades and spears, impervious to water and fire, and almost ignored everything
