After the Pluton flew clear of the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, Shin hurled a Six Paths Rasenshuriken back at the sacred city.

With a deafening roar, the attack obliterated more than half of Mary Geoise, and even the Red Line itself began to tremble.

————————————

“If I’d gone all out, Fish-Man Island, ten thousand meters below, would have been caught in the crossfire.”

Shin commented casually.

After all, Fish-Man Island was Shirahoshi’s home. If he accidentally destroyed it, she would probably cry her eyes out.

“You call that holding back??” Olvia gestured toward the flattened remains of Mary Geoise.

If he had used any more force, the Red Line might have been completely shattered. Perhaps then, they wouldn’t even need to pass through Fish-Man Island to reach the New World—he would have simply blasted a new path.

“You don’t think that destroyed Uranus, did you?” Robin couldn’t help but wonder.

“I doubt it… It shouldn’t be that fragile.”

Shin shrugged, then waited for Uranus to appear. Unlike Shin’s calm demeanor, Amatsuki Toki was on edge.

“I don’t think Uranus will be that easy to deal with. Since you said it’s a person, Shin, and it’s been alive for so long, who knows how strong it is now??”

Amatsuki Toki’s face was filled with worry.

“Worrying is pointless. Or do you not have faith in me, Toki?” Shin asked.

At his question, Amatsuki Toki paused, her mind flashing back to the sight of Mary Geoise being obliterated by a single, casual attack from Shin.

That seemed to be just a whim on his part. Maybe she really didn’t need to worry. No matter how powerful Uranus was, it couldn’t possibly compare to Shin.

“Is that him?” Shin’s gaze shifted, focusing on a figure in the distance.

The moment he saw the figure, Shin knew—that was the so-called Uranus. It really was a person.

“Was it you who disturbed my slumber?”

Uranus’s gaze fell upon Shin. His entire body was encased in heavy armor, his head covered by a large mask that completely concealed his face.

“How about taking off that mask so I can have a look?” Shin asked with a smile.

“Die.”

Uranus let out an icy growl, and an endless torrent of flames surged toward Shin, turning the sky crimson.

Shin’s expression flickered with surprise. Weren’t those the powers of Imu’s Phoenix Fruit? How could Uranus use them too?

But now wasn’t the time to ponder that. He had to deal with the attack first.

Shin summoned his Susanoo, which completely blocked the flames, shielding both him and the Pluton.

“You guys get out of here. I’ll have some fun with this one.”

Shin said with great interest.

Olvia and the others knew that even if they stayed, they wouldn’t be of any help. This Uranus seemed ridiculously powerful.

Shin could definitely handle it, but if they stayed, they’d be no different from cannon fodder.

So, Olvia and the others left without hesitation, leaving Shin to face Uranus alone.

“As one of the Ancient Weapons, let’s see what you’re really capable of. I hope you can show me something interesting—” Shin said with a faint smile, looking at Uranus.

If Uranus was an Ancient Weapon, then someone must have created it. The question was, who?

The Celestial Dragons? No, if it were them, they wouldn’t be dominated by Uranus.

Instantly, Shin thought of the mysterious D. Clan.

Though the D. Clan was small in number, every living member was an incredibly powerful individual—like the protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy.

There were also Garp, Dragon, Ace, Roger, and others—all members of the D. Clan, embodying a certain will.

They were called the “Natural Enemies of the Gods.” If the Celestial Dragons called themselves the descendants of gods, then who was the god? It was possible that this so-called god was Uranus.

Perhaps the D. Clan created Uranus, and then Uranus, unwilling to be a mere weapon, rebelled and destroyed the D. Clan’s kingdom.

That could be it…

Though it was all just Shin’s own speculation, it didn’t mean he was wrong. Shin considered his ability to connect the dots to be quite strong.

“Hey, aren’t you going to talk to me? You just keep attacking. Do you think I’m a pushover?”

Shin didn’t move, letting Uranus continue his assault.

All the attacks landed on Shin’s Susanoo, but they couldn’t even scratch it.

The damage couldn’t even keep up with his regeneration.

Uranus ignored Shin’s words, continuing his relentless attacks, making Shin wonder if this Uranus was broken in the head.

“You really think I don’t have a temper?”

Shin controlled Susanoo to throw a punch at Uranus, sending him crashing down onto the Red Line.

If his earlier guess was correct, and Uranus was the so-called god, then it was a perfect match. The Susanoo was also known as a divine technique.

Legend had it that anyone who witnessed it was doomed. The Susanoo was destruction incarnate.

Madara’s version might have struggled against this ancient weapon. But Shin’s Susanoo? Uranus didn’t stand a chance.

One punch had nearly finished him off.

————————————

“IMPOSSIBLE. NO ONE IS STRONGER THAN ME.” Uranus’s injuries healed amidst the flames, and at the same time, lightning crackled around his body.

“Is that the Rumble-Rumble Fruit’s power? What’s going on with you?”

Shin looked at the ability his opponent was using. Was it really the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, or something else?

As far as he knew, Olvia had already eaten the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. So how could Uranus still use its power?

As Shin was pondering this, the lightning had already struck him. The brilliant bolts, carrying immense power, slammed into the Susanoo.

Even the Susanoo’s armor was cracked, but such a small fissure could be repaired in an instant. It was nothing to worry about.

Seeing that his attack had no effect, Uranus used the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit. It seemed Uranus could use the abilities of any Devil Fruit.

“You’re quite the cheat, aren’t you? Almost more of a cheat than me,” Shin couldn’t help but say, looking at the man who was using all sorts of Devil Fruit abilities.

Unfortunately, no matter what attack he used, its power wasn’t that great. At least, it didn’t pose a threat to Shin. He couldn’t even break through Susanoo’s defense.

“Are you done with your attacks? Shouldn’t it be my turn now?” Shin dispelled his Susanoo and cracked his knuckles.

Though his attacks had no effect on him, being constantly attacked was still very annoying.

Now, it was time for payback.
