Chapter 301: Lightning-Immune Rubber! Slaying the Dragon and the thousand sunny's Counterattack
Facing Luffy's provocation, his eyes gleaming and drooling.
The massive Western dragon circling in mid-air was thoroughly enraged.
It suddenly opened its maw, wide enough to swallow a small warship, and a blinding, dazzling thunderous light erupted from deep within its throat.
The next second, accompanied by a deafening roar, a violent, high-voltage lightning breath, like a divine spear piercing heaven and earth, struck directly at the unavoidable Luffy in mid-air.
Robin, standing below, had a slight change in expression. She immediately crossed her arms in front of her chest, ready to use her Hana Hana no Mi ability to create a net for rescue.
However, when that blinding and destructive lightning faded, Luffy's carefree, crisp laughter came from the sky.
He was seen hovering in mid-air, completely unharmed, without a single trace of burns on his body.
He even grinned, revealing his signature bright laugh: "It's useless! I'm a Rubber Man!"
The most terrifying weapon on the Lightning Island became a completely ineffective attack with no deterrent power in front of Luffy, who is a rubber insulator.
Taking advantage of the moment the dragon was stunned by the ineffective attack.
Luffy didn't hesitate to bite his thumb and quickly blew a large amount of air into his bones.
Accompanied by the popping sound of expanding muscles and bones, his right arm instantly inflated into a giant fist as large as an ancient giant's.
Immediately after, Armament Haki, emitting a metallic luster, quickly wrapped around it like flowing water, completely hardening the entire giant hand.
"Gomu Gomu no — Elephant Gun!"
The huge black fist, accompanied by the shrill sound of tearing air, smashed hard against the dragon's hard head.
The terrifying power erupted instantly, directly blasting the behemoth out of mid-air.
With a deafening "Boom," the dragon's massive body slammed heavily onto the ground, triggering a violent earthquake that shattered the surrounding fog and the earth.
However, although the dragon was heavily damaged by Luffy, the genius scientist Vegapunk had endowed it with exceptionally strong physical defense when cultivating it.
Although this blow left it dizzy, it didn't kill it immediately.
It shook its dizzy head wildly in the deep pit it had created, let out a low roar, and was about to struggle to stand up with its massive body to launch a fatal counterattack.
Just then.
In the eyes of Tatsuya, who was standing on the side, his red and purple pupils shone brightly.
Vast and majestic purple Chakra rose from his body like a storm, dispelling the surrounding poisonous fog.
"Susanoo!"
A huge purple half-body skeletal martial god instantly condensed in the void.
Tatsuya controlled Susanoo to descend from the sky, domineeringly pressing directly onto the dragon's massive body.
Susanoo's huge purple Chakra bone hand suddenly reached down, pinning the dragon's head that was about to rise and roar.
With a muffled "Bang," it was pressed deep into the soil, and no matter how hard the dragon struggled, it couldn't move an inch!
Watching the huge prey perfectly controlled in place by the Captain and Vice Captain, Zoro's mouth curled into a fanatical sneer.
He lowered his body slightly, set up a stance to draw his sword, his eyes sharp as blades: "Well done, Captain, Vice Captain."
Before the words fell, Zoro turned into a black lightning bolt.
He shattered the ground under his feet and rushed toward the dragon's head that was pinned to the ground and roaring wildly.
The moment the blade was unsheathed, the crisp sound of the sword seemed to be mixed with the roar of a lion.
"One Sword Style: Dead Lion Song!"
A cold, bone-chilling pitch-black sword light flashed through the thick fog.
The next second, that huge dragon head separated directly from its torso and soared into the sky.
Scalding dragon blood, like a fountain, sprinkled all over this barren land.
The crisis was resolved, and Luffy jumped joyfully to the side of the huge headless dragon corpse.
His eyes gleamed, and he excitedly circled the dragon meat, which was like a mountain of meat, shouting "Barbecue, barbecue," already imagining the ultimate delicacy.
Just as everyone was preparing to step forward to examine the dragon's corpse, Luffy suddenly let out an exclamation.
He keenly discovered that stuck between the sharp teeth of the severed dragon head was a pair of "human legs" that only consisted of the lower body!
What was even more creepy was that the legs were wearing the hem of a traditional kimono, and the severed part not only didn't bleed a drop of blood, but was also struggling and kicking violently in mid-air, and let out a loud, angry shout:
"Damn evil dragon! Let me go! I still have to go save my son! I absolutely cannot be eaten!"
Robin rested her chin on one hand, watching this scene that completely defied biological common sense with great interest.
Luffy's eyes lit up, as if he had seen some incredibly novel toy.
He reached out both hands and forcibly pulled the legs out from the dragon's teeth.
He held the legs that were still kicking around, and asked loudly with an excited and curious face: "So interesting! Are you a magical creature grown from legs?"
Meanwhile, the scene cuts back to the thousand sunny anchored at the entrance of Punk Hazard.
Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Chopper, Franky, and Brook, who stayed on the ship, were waiting for news from the exploration team.
Suddenly, the breeze blowing on the sea surface stopped.
The thick poisonous fog that was already dense around became even heavier, as if artificially controlled, and surged toward the thousand sunny like a tide.
Not only that, the air even carried a strange, abnormally sweet smell.
As the ship's exclusive doctor, Chopper had the sharpest sense of smell.
He was the first to notice that something was wrong. He immediately twitched his blue nose and carefully sniffed the air. The next second, he shouted in horror:
"Not good! Everyone, cover your nose and mouth quickly! There is potent sleeping gas mixed into this fog!"
Hearing Chopper's warning, the others immediately reacted and raised their hands to cover their noses and mouths.
Sanji frowned slightly, and Tatsuya's warning before disembarking immediately came to his mind.
His eyes instantly darkened. It seemed that on this seemingly desolate island, there were indeed hidden, unknown enemies.
Nami's eyes sharpened, staying calm in the face of danger.
She quickly took a special wind ball from her waist and stuffed it into the mouth of her exclusive thundercloud "Futo" without hesitation.
Having absorbed the special wind ball, Futo's size instantly inflated several times like an inflated balloon, with violent air currents swirling around it.
Subsequently, it opened its big mouth and violently spat out a massive, destructive gust of wind toward the foggy sea surface in front!
"Whoosh — Boom!" The wind passed, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
This powerful storm not only blew away the spreading sleeping gas and poisonous fog without a trace but also completely exposed a group of mysterious people who had been hiding deep in the thick fog.
These people were all wearing fully sealed yellow gas masks and heavy protective suits, holding various firearms and heavy chains used for capture.
At this moment, they were blown about by the sudden wind, rolling on the ground in a sorry state.
Nami stood on the high point of the deck with her arms crossed.
She looked at these attackers exposed in her field of vision with cold, confident eyes and snorted coldly: "Hmph, using such low-class sneak attack methods, aren't you looking down on the Straw Hat Pirates a bit too much?"
"Nami is so cool!" Seeing the crisis instantly resolved, Usopp and Chopper excitedly hugged Lassoo and Clay, cheering loudly on the side.
Sanji took a deep puff of his cigarette and then slowly exhaled the smoke.
His eyes flashed with cold, sharp killing intent. He stepped toward the ship's rail, loosened his wrists and ankles, and said in a deep voice: "Nami-san, you step back and rest. Leave these eyesores to me to clean up."
The scene shifts to a hidden and massive research institute deep within Punk Hazard.
Accompanied by a weird and harsh "Shurorororo" laugh, the mad scientist with a bounty of 300 million Berries — Caesar Clown, made his official appearance.
He was wearing a large white lab coat, and his whole body was floating in mid-air.
At this moment, he was in a laboratory filled with various test tubes and instruments.
His subordinates were incoherently reporting the battle situation at the front line to him through the Visual Den Den Mushi on the screen: "Mas... Master! It's bad! The capture operation at the island entrance has failed!"
"Not only were those pirates not knocked out by the sleeping gas, but one of the women also released a wind that blew away our poison gas! Now, our troops are being unilaterally slaughtered by them; we can't hold them off at all!"
"Ah! My leg was kicked off! Help —!" Accompanied by a shrill scream and the sound of flesh being heavily struck coming from the other end of the Den Den Mushi, the communication signal was suddenly cut off.
After hearing this, Caesar's pale, weird face instantly twisted.
His body, which had turned into a gaseous state, twisted violently due to anger and shock: "These useless trash... they can't even take care of a few pirates!"
Caesar gritted his teeth, a crazy cold light flashing in his eyes. "Shurorororo, it looks like I'll have to prepare a big gift for them myself!"
