Chương 1272: Napoleon VS Katakuri (3)

There was a loud clang, deafening, and sparks flew everywhere.

Katakuri's Earth Dragon and Napoleon's Trident of Poseidon collided fiercely, bursting out with an extremely powerful force.

This huge force was like a tidal wave, rushing madly along the trident of Poseidon towards Napoleon's arms.

Although Napoleon tried his best to keep his body steady, he was ultimately unable to resist this powerful force.

His feet slid backwards involuntarily, plowing two deep scratches on the hard ground.

Even so, there was still no trace of fear on Napoleon's face.

Seeing that Napoleon was forced to retreat, how could Katakuri miss this excellent opportunity to pursue the victory?

His feet were as fast as the wind, and his figure rushed forward like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Napoleon.

But this time, Napoleon no longer chose passive defense.

Facing the aggressive Katakuri, a determination flashed in his eyes. He raised the Trident of Poseidon high without hesitation, then used all his strength to chop down Katakuri with the force of thunder.

All that was heard was a loud clang, as deafening as the sound of a huge bell, echoing throughout the entire battlefield.

The double halberds suddenly collided with each other with unparalleled force, splashing countless sparks, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night sky.

However, before he could recover from the thrilling collision, another crisp "crack" sound was heard.

Katakuri's face was filled with shock and anger, and he stared at the broken earth dragon in his hand with wide eyes in disbelief.

You know, this earth dragon has been following him all the time, and was nurtured by him with his Armament Haki Domineering Qi, making it extremely strong. He didn't expect that it would be cut off by the other party so easily!

In an instant, a strong threat of death swept towards him like a tide, instantly enveloping him entirely.

Katakuri dodged to the side almost instinctively, his movements as fast as lightning.

The trident of Poseidon in Napoleon's hand was like a ferocious dragon, whistling past his body, bringing up a gust of fierce wind that hurt his cheeks.

Katakuri did not dare to be negligent at all and quickly retreated, putting some distance between himself and Napoleon.

At this moment, he tightly grasped the earth dragon that had been broken into two halves in his hand, staring at Napoleon opposite him with uncertainty.

To be precise, his attention was more focused on the trident of Poseidon in Napoleon's hand, which was emitting a mysterious glow.

"Supreme Great Sword..."

This thought flashed through Katakuri's mind.

Apart from weapons of this level, what else could be able to split his earth dragon so easily?

Even though he didn't use Armament Haki to strengthen the Earth Dragon just now, Napoleon didn't use it either!

Neither of them has the ability of a natural devil fruit, so they do not need to rely on armament domineering to fight the enemy every time in battle.

After all, using Armament Haki will consume a lot of one's own physical strength and energy. If you use it frequently at the beginning of a fight, you will likely fall into a dangerous situation due to exhaustion in the later stages.

"Humph!"

Napoleon snorted coldly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a look of disdain.

You know, he spent a lot of energy and time to obtain this Trident of Poseidon.

Thinking back to the beginning, he begged his grandfather for a long time before his grandfather finally agreed to use the most precious materials to make this halberd.

Moreover, the entire production process took as long as two and a half years, during which countless efforts and sweat were spent.

This Poseidon trident is not only extremely sharp, but also incredibly hard.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is in no way inferior to the legendary supreme sword.

In some aspects, such as toughness, it is even better.

What's even more amazing is that when this weapon was first produced, by chance, a few drops of Napoleon's own blood were incorporated into it.

Because of this, this trident has a special ability - it can withstand the endless power of the ocean and control the sea water at will.

Such miraculous effects can be called a magic weapon!

It is no exaggeration to say that this Poseidon Trident is the pinnacle of Rockefeller Kingdom's weapons technology.

How can it be compared with an ordinary trident?

Even the trident in Katakuri's hand, which he had carefully nurtured for twenty or thirty years, was only as hard as a large sword of twenty-one gong.

Compared with the majestic and domineering Trident of Poseidon in front of him, the gap between the two is so huge that there is absolutely no comparison at all.

At this moment, Katakuri's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

He stared at the earth dragon on the ground that had been broken into two pieces, his heart filled with anger and unwillingness.

You know, this earth dragon has been with him for more than thirty springs, summers, autumns and winters!

Over the years, it has accompanied Katakuri in his battles and experienced countless life-and-death battles.

Even when it fought against the powerful Esdeath, this Earth Dragon never suffered the slightest damage.

However, who could have imagined that today it would be destroyed by a younger generation, a guy named Napoleon.

Katakuri slowly put down the broken earth dragon. His face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it, and his eyes were fixed on Napoleon in front of him.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, leaving only the invisible sparks created when the two looked at each other.

The next moment, Katakuri suddenly pressed one palm heavily on the ground.

A shocking scene occurred—the originally extremely hard ground suddenly became soft, as if under a spell, and began to shake violently like surging waves.

Then, the earth changed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a bunch of rice cakes that flashed a mysterious dark purple light!

These rice cakes seemed to have life and quickly spread in all directions at a speed that was astonishing.

In a flash, they extended to Napoleon's feet.

However, in the face of Katakuri's actions, Napoleon remained surprisingly calm and composed.

He neither chose to dodge hastily nor tried to stop the other party from using his abilities.

He just stood there quietly, staring at Katakuri, silently observing him using his devil fruit to awaken.

Because all this was within his expectations. His aunt had told him before that Katakuri's most powerful killer move was the awakening of the Mochi-Mochi Fruit.
