"KIN'EMON!"
"No, no! Kin-san!"
Everyone's eyes widened as they witnessed the horrifically bloody scene before them.
Denjiro broke down in tears.
Momonosuke felt his entire body go cold, trembling uncontrollably.
"The nightmare... the nightmare of Wano isn't over yet!"
"KAIDOOO!" Denjiro roared in grief and fury, gripping his katana as he charged forward once more!
"Watch out!" Zoro shouted in alarm, unsheathing Enma as a violet blade aura slashed through the air.
"A swordsman to play with? Perfect!"
Caesar brandished a massive blade coated in swirling purple venom, grinning wickedly as he met Denjiro strike head-on.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
The clashing blades unleashed a storm of metallic shrieks. Caesar right arm blurred into a purple afterimage, his sword dancing like a swirling orb.
Denjiro gritted his teeth and roared, yet his body was forced back step by step, utterly unable to withstand Caesar overwhelming strength.
"Divine Slash!" Caesar roared, unleashing a monstrous burst of power that instantly cleaved through Denjiro blade!
Crack!
Denjiro katana shattered and the massive blade sliced open his chest!
"ROOM!"
Just as Caesar was about to bisect Denjiro, Law activated his ability once more.
Whoosh!
Denjiro was teleported behind the group, collapsing onto the ground.
"DENJIRO!" Raizo rushed forward to check his wounds.
"What is this? Poison?! Doctor! Doctor Chopper!"
Raizo expression twisted in horror.
Though Denjiro chest bore only a shallow cut—merely a surface wound—his injury was now covered in a writhing, living mass of purple venom, slowly seeping into his body!
Denjiro chest visibly rotted at an alarming rate, his flesh dissolving into a putrid, grotesque mess.
As the squirming purple sludge threatened to fully invade Denjiro body, Raizo acted without hesitation, reaching out to grab the venom in a desperate attempt to stop it.
"DON'T TOUCH IT!" Chopper face paled as he sprinted forward in panic.
Marco also swooped down at blinding speed!
But it was too late. Raizo right hand clutched the last remnants of the purple venom, tearing it from Denjiro wound—only to fling it away.
"AAARGH!!"
Raizo collapsed, clutching his right hand with his left as an agonized scream tore from his throat.
He writhed violently on the ground.
Chopper's body swelled with muscle as he pinned Raizo down, examining his hand.
"What... what kind of poison is this?!"
Raizo entire right hand had liquefied, skin and muscle dissolving into a blackened, skeletal ruin!
And the venom wasn't done—it continued creeping up his arm!
Marco hands ignited with blue flames, enveloping Raizo arm.
But—
"Damn it! The poison has seeped into his marrow! I can't purge it fast enough!" Marco face twisted in alarm.
Chopper looked up and spotted Kiku standing closest.
"Kiku! Cut off Raizo arm—NOW!"
Kiku clenched his teeth, raising his katana high before bringing it down in a swift, decisive slash!
Squelch!
Crimson blood sprayed as Raizo right arm was severed clean at the shoulder, thudding onto the ground.
Everyone watched in horror as the severed limb rapidly corroded before their eyes, crumbling into a pile of blackened, shattered bones!
"Denjiro! Raizo!" Inuarashi and Nekomamushi eyes were bloodshot as they watched Raizo agonized screams and Denjiro rotting chest, unsure if he was alive or dead.
A mix of shock and fury surged through everyone's hearts.
"Borororo! Bororororo!" Caesar threw his head back in laughter, gripping his massive blade as he advanced step by step.
The purple venom from Zhu Long dripped steadily, posing a dire threat to all.
"Magellan!" Luffy mind instantly flashed to Magellan, recalling his equally terrifying poison—capable of corroding even inanimate objects like walls and steel!
"What do we do? What do we do?"
Everyone retreated, dozens of elite fighters forced back by Caesar alone.
"CAESAR! I'll kill you!" Inuarashi, eyes bloodshot and veins bulging, was on the verge of losing control, lunging forward to attack.
"STOP!" Komurasaki, tears streaming down her face, desperately tried to hold them back.
Chopper instantly enlarged, grabbing Inuarashi and pinning them down with all his might.
"Be careful! Don't let the poison touch your skin! If it does, cut off the affected area immediately!" Chopper roared.
"Scatter!" Zoro bellowed.
"Magnetic Demon Bull!" Kid shouted, extending his right arm as countless metal objects converged from all directions, forming a colossal iron bull.
Law yelled at him "Don't waste time with that, Kid! Use your ability to armor everyone in steel!"
Kid froze for a second before realizing, quickly dispersing the iron bull to redistribute the metal.
"Frostfall Freeze!" Caesar exhaled, a frigid white mist instantly encasing the massive iron bull, thick layers of ice rapidly sealing the metal.
Kid strained to lift the now-mountainous frozen bull, his expression darkening.
"Dammit! The ice is too thick—it's weakening my control! Killer!"
"I'll shatter it!"
Killer shot forward, his crescent-shaped scythes spinning as he slashed toward the ice.
"Worororo! Did you forget I'm still here? RAIMEI HAKKE!"
Kaido mountainous frame crashed forward, sending Killer flying before swinging his club at the airborne man.
Sanji moved like lightning, vanishing and reappearing to deliver a devastating kick to Kaido flank.
"Demon Wind Leg! Flank Kick!"
At the same time, Big Mom swung her massive flaming sword, unleashing a torrent of fire toward the group.
"Divine Wind Slash!"
Caesar swung Zhu Long again, sending a rain of purple venom toward Luffy and the others!
"WATCH OUT!" Luffy cried in alarm.
"Coup de Vent!"
Just then, Franky leaped forward, spreading his massive arms toward Caesar.
His palms expanded, releasing a compressed air blast that sent the venom flying back—straight at Caesar, Kaido, and Big Mom.
"Nice one, Franky!"
Everyone gasped in surprise and delight.
Luffy jumped in joy.
"Perfect!" Kid laughed.
"Kaido, you bastards, enjoy your own poison!" Chopper cheered.
"Let them rot!" Inuarashi snarled.
The venom splattered across the three, coating their bodies instantly.
Caesar picked his nose, letting the venom splash onto his body and face without a scratch.
The venom gathered like clay on him, twisting into a mass before flowing back onto the great blade Zhu Long in his hand.
As for Kaido and Linlin, their massive bodies were also drenched in venom.
Yet, despite the venom coating them, it couldn't even breach their defenses.
With their monstrously tough physiques and overwhelming Armament Haki, this venom was nothing more than a light sprinkle.
"Gulp." Usopp swallowed hard, staring in horror at Caesar and the others.
"Monsters. They're all monsters!" Chopper muttered.
