Chapter 174 - Chapter 174: A New World Almost Destroyed

This boulder was just an ordinary rock, only extremely massive.

Facing the combined impact released by Kaido and Charlotte, an ordinary rock naturally couldn't withstand it.

The enormous impact directly struck the center of the falling spherical boulder, instantly creating a nearly hundred-meter-wide crater. The impact continued to break through the surface towards the core, constantly destroying the meteorite's interior as it pushed upwards.

In just a few seconds, the impact had destroyed the middle of the meteorite, and the entire meteorite, due to this impact, developed countless cracks on its surrounding surface.

Just as the Tengai Shinsei was about to hit the two, the boulder itself completely split open, turning into countless fragments that fell from the sky.

The Haki released by their combined efforts pierced through this massive rock!

The people who were fleeing couldn't believe that the colossal boulder, which seemed like the sky was falling, could be destroyed by human power. It was almost the size of a small island!

"Hahaha, Linlin, your strength has improved a lot since before!"

Kaido felt incredibly exhilarated.

He exclaimed to his old friend.

"Mama mama, you've also gotten a lot stronger, Kaido!"

Charlotte was equally excited.

Breaking through a seemingly unstoppable force in the eyes of others gave both of them a thrill. 'We are strong!'

The dense rain of boulders falling from the sky was continuously cleared by Prometheus's fire breath, preventing the two from having to act.

The falling debris, however, was still very substantial. The smallest pieces were several meters long, and the larger ones were even hundreds of meters long, enough to destroy numerous pirate ships.

The boulders, which had initially only slightly affected the battle arena, now covered a much wider area after being shattered.

Both Big Mom and Uchiha's forces, who were engaged in combat, paused to prioritize dealing with the falling debris from the sky.

Zoro was diligently hacking at the boulders, while Hawkeye Mihawk sat beside him, looking up at the situation in the sky. But soon, his hawk-like eyes showed a look of shock.

"Can the new generation already achieve this level?!"

Red-Haired Shanks couldn't help but exclaim in awe.

The gloom in the sky hadn't disappeared; instead, it had grown even darker.

The pirates who were preparing to flee were also puzzled as to why, even after running so far, the shadow covering them hadn't vanished.

When they saw an even larger boulder pierce through the clouds and emerge, their faces were filled with despair.

This boulder was twice as large as the previous one, but it was less than a minute from impact. In that minute, their ships couldn't possibly travel more than five kilometers.

"There's a second one!!"

Kaido was also somewhat shaken at this point, mainly because this one was even larger than the last.

Charlotte found this fact even harder to accept. The boulder they had painstakingly destroyed was just an appetizer?

"Let's do it again, Linlin!"

Kaido said.

They were closer to each other, and when the debris fell from the sky earlier, it obstructed their view. By the time they realized something was wrong, they had already missed the best time to escape.

Furthermore, they didn't believe that the man a kilometer away from them would easily let them leave.

Observation Haki told him that facing the attack was the only option.

"This level of attack cannot defeat me!"

"Let's do it!"

Charlotte showed a fierce expression.

Having reached this point, they had both fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. She had never been afraid.

"Haki!"

The two once again swung their weapons, unleashing a massive impact.

As before, the impact instantly shattered the boulder's surface, destroying it deeper within.

However, this boulder was twice as large as the previous one, and its diameter was also double. This time, the Haki's impact couldn't pierce through the entire boulder; it only destroyed less than half before the impact dissipated.

The two didn't have time to release another Haki attack. The boulder fell directly, and with no escape, they could only brace themselves for a head-on collision.

A few seconds later, the boulder fell, directly striking the side of the battle arena. The vast majority of it landed in the sea, immediately raising colossal waves.

"The Uchiha family head truly has some grand schemes!"

Senju Hashirama looked at the projected image, feeling that he was truly inferior to the younger generation now. Then he got up; he needed to go to the coastline to intercept the impending colossal waves.

"Is this Uchiha Tamahiko's strength?"

Although he had guessed many times and knew his childhood friend was powerful, he never expected it to be this exaggerated.

He estimated the size of the falling boulder earlier; it was probably larger than the country they were currently standing on.

The attack range of Tengai Shinsei disregards friend or foe. Uchiha Tamahiko didn't choose to resist it head-on with Susanoo; instead, he continuously shifted his position using the Ope-Ope no Mi's ability, moving out of the affected area.

The pirates below were not so lucky. Some fortunate ones who remained in unaffected positions on the battle arena experienced the least impact. Those who boarded ships to flee were the unluckiest; most were crushed by the boulder, and the remaining few were swallowed by the surging waves.

The Uchiha group, however, had Blueno of CP9, who directly opened a spatial gate and transferred everyone to a different dimension, avoiding the direct impact.

Big Mom's people were the most miserable. When they tried to escape, Doflamingo's threads directly tied several ships together, making it impossible to break free in a short time. They virtually faced the full impact of the boulder.

The pirates who came to watch the show were largely annihilated. They had come to witness history, or even to show off, but now most of them were dead.

The commotion caused by Tengai Shinsei gradually subsided, but the aftershocks were spreading outwards.

Especially the Marines in the distance, who were preparing to resist the first wave of colossal waves.

Uchiha Tamahiko descended from the sky, dispelled his Susanoo, and stood in the battle arena.

Ace and Kuzan had both stopped fighting. After all, that boulder just now was too terrifying; even they were scared. At the same time, Ace also needed to help rescue the members of his pirate crew.

"The New World should be much quieter now."

Uchiha Tamahiko said to Kuzan.

Kuzan's lips trembled; he wanted to say something but ultimately stopped.

He felt that Tamahiko's strength was even more exaggerated than when he fought him!

However, soon various holes appeared all over the boulder. Those with powerful strength were still able to find ways to survive.

The first to emerge were Hawkeye and Zoro. Zoro's face was full of the feeling of surviving a disaster; he never expected that the person who captured them on Thriller Bark back then would be so strong!

Next was Red Hair's crew, a total of a dozen members, who broke out of the boulder completely unscathed.

Then came the Beasts Pirates, though it seemed they suffered significant losses. Out of over a hundred people initially, only a few dozen emerged.

Next was Crocodile, his slicked-back hair still perfectly in place.

Even Gekko Moriah, the shame of the Shichibukai, managed to survive, but there was blood on his lips, indicating he was injured.

"Bang!"

The biggest commotion was Kaido, who transformed into an Azure Dragon, grabbing Charlotte and bursting out of the rock. He then immediately dispelled his beast form and entered his human-beast hybrid form.

Charlotte looked heavily injured and on the verge of death, but she was still conscious. She raised her right hand and performed another Soul-Soul Fruit ability on herself, rapidly recovering her vitality.

King breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his Captain was fine.

"It's time to end the battle."

As Uchiha Tamahiko's voice fell, he entered Sage Mode, and the Sage Mode facial markings appeared. At the same time, six Truth-Seeking Orbs floated behind him, arranged symmetrically.

After nearly three months of training, he could now stably create Truth-Seeking Orbs, though the more there were, the harder it was to maintain stability. Six was the maximum he could currently maintain
