One Piece: Invincible Starting From The Fruit Of Words-Chapter 208 Seriously Injured Redhead And Whitebeard!

"You let them invade the Holy Land, but you're only seeking your own death!"

The red-haired pirate spoke sternly, "Lucifer, you think you can destroy us all in one go? You're far too arrogant!"

Whitebeard let out a hearty laugh. "Brat, you're really overestimating yourself!"

"Am I arrogant?"

Lucifer's expression remained indifferent. "No, I'm simply stating a fact."

"Isn't that right, Ryder?"

"Ah, that's right!"

A swarm of bats fluttered past, merging together to form Ryder's body behind Lucifer.

"Victory or defeat will be decided by today's battle!"

"Go!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Ryder struck.

With a flash of his blade, a ghostly figure was instantly cut down.

The two clashed fiercely, their battle quickly carrying them into the distance.

Meanwhile, Lucifer stood alone, facing Whitebeard, Red-Haired Shanks, and Beckman.

"Gura Gura no Mi: Tremor Shock!"

Whitebeard swung Murakumogiri, his legendary naginata, unleashing a devastating shockwave that shattered the air itself.

A terrifying wave of destruction surged toward Lucifer.

"Disperse!"

Lucifer waved his hand, and the power of the quake was instantly weakened by 90%.

The remaining force barely brushed past him like a passing breeze.

At the same time, Shanks and Beckman launched their own deadly attacks.

Shanks, wielding his sword coated in Advanced Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, slashed through the air with a strike powerful enough to rend the sky and earth apart.

Rather than using his pistol, Beckman also wielded a sword, revealing his prowess as a top-tier swordsman.

The Red Hair Pirates were structured similarly to the Roger Pirates—both the captain and first mate were masters of the blade.

"Vacuum Wall!"

Lucifer raised his hand, instantly conjuring an invisible barrier of compressed air. The wall deflected their slashes while he countered with his own attack.

"Infinite Gravity Field!"

A crushing force filled the battlefield.

The overwhelming gravity, combined with Lucifer's Conqueror's Domain, instantly suppressed Whitebeard, Shanks, and Beckman, greatly reducing their speed and strength.

Swish!

In a flash, Lucifer appeared directly in front of Shanks.

"Light Saber: Judgment Blade!"

With a single slash, Lucifer unleashed an earth-shattering strike infused with Conqueror's Haki and Advanced Armament Haki.

Shanks was sent flying thousands of meters, crashing through mountains and buildings.

As he struggled to recover, Lucifer's Conqueror's Haki solidified in the air, forming countless spectral swords that rained down upon him.

Each blade cut deep, turning Shanks' body black and blue.

"Light Saber: Overlord's Myriad Tribulations!"

Lucifer pressed his advantage.

A 100-meter-long energy sword condensed in his grip before he slashed downward with unrelenting fury.

The very air split apart. Cracks tore through space itself.

The colossal sword crashed down upon Shanks.

BOOM!

The entire island trembled. Mountains crumbled into dust.

Shanks lay beneath the rubble, his fate unknown.

"Shanks!!!"

Beckman roared in fury, but instead of losing himself in despair, he immediately launched a deadly counterattack against Lucifer.

At the same time, Whitebeard unleashed his most powerful attack.

In a split second, he teleported behind Lucifer, his overwhelming Conqueror's Haki erupting in an attempt to shake Lucifer's spirit.

His fist, enveloped in the transparent quake energy of the Gura Gura no Mi, crashed toward Lucifer with world-shattering force.

Whitebeard and Beckman struck simultaneously, one from the left and one from the right.

Lucifer didn't dodge.

Instead, he calmly raised both hands, palms facing his opponents.

"Shinra Tensei!"

A terrifying repulsive force exploded outward, fused with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, surging like a massive tidal wave.

Beckman's sword strike was instantly shattered, and he was flung into the distance.

Whitebeard, however, was far stronger.

The clash between Shinra Tensei and Gura Gura no Mi caused the entire battlefield to shake violently.

For a moment, the two forces were evenly matched, locked in a stalemate.

BOOM!

A catastrophic shockwave erupted.

Their Conqueror's Haki clashed, intertwining into chaotic bursts of black and red lightning that ripped through the battlefield.

The sheer force of their battle reduced everything within a kilometer radius to rubble.

The collision created a massive windstorm, piercing the heavens, leaving a huge hole in the sky spanning over a kilometer wide.

Their fight seemed to shake the world itself.

Lucifer smirked.

"Whitebeard, you don't seem that old... but this is the extent of your power?"

Lucifer grinned menacingly as the repulsive force, Armament Haki, and Conqueror's Haki surged to another level.

Boom!

Whitebeard's seismic power was completely overwhelmed, and the terrifying repulsive force struck his chest before erupting violently.

"Urgh!"

Whitebeard's pupils shrank as he let out a muffled grunt, a mouthful of blood involuntarily spurting from his mouth.

His massive frame skidded backward, his feet digging into the ground and leaving two deep trenches in his wake.

Despite the overwhelming impact, Whitebeard gritted his teeth and managed to stand tall.

"Pops!!!"

Seeing Whitebeard injured and coughing up blood, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates, who had been anxiously watching the battle, cried out in alarm.

A group of pirates rushed toward him, attempting to offer support.

However, the moment they stepped into Lucifer's Conqueror's Haki domain—

Boom!

Their bodies exploded instantly, flesh and blood scattering across the battlefield. Not even their bones remained.

"Don't come any closer!!!"

Whitebeard roared, stopping the pirates who still wanted to rush forward.

He knew all too well how terrifying Lucifer's Conqueror's Haki domain was.

Even though he himself seemed unaffected inside the field, that was only because he was using his own Conqueror's Haki to coat his body, shielding himself from the ever-present, omnidirectional attacks.

For those lacking sufficient strength, stepping into this domain was the same as stepping into the depths of hell—instant dismemberment and certain death.

"Damn it! Are we really just going to stand here and do nothing?!"

"That bastard Lucifer! How dare he wound Pops!"

"I'll never forgive him!"

"Why?! Why am I so weak?!"

"If only I were stronger... things wouldn't have turned out like this!"

The members of the Whitebeard Pirates clenched their fists in frustration, cursing their own powerlessness. If they were strong enough, they could fight alongside Whitebeard instead of just watching helplessly.

"Pops!!!"

Among the crew, only one person had the strength to break into the Conqueror's Haki domain—Marco.

The moment he saw Whitebeard injured, Marco transformed into a phoenix and shot toward him.

With his Mythical Zoan regeneration and mastery of Armament Haki, he could withstand even fatal attacks.

But Weibull wouldn't let him through.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless razor-sharp wind blades shot from the mouth of the Azure Dragon, slicing through the air and tearing into the phoenix, forcing Marco back.

Although the phoenix could fly, so could the Azure Dragon—and at an even greater speed.

On this battlefield, Weibull was practically Marco's natural counter.

No matter what he did, it was impossible to break past Qinglong Weibull.

Boom!

Amidst the chaotic battlefield, a chunk of debris suddenly exploded as Red-Haired Shanks emerged from the rubble.

"Shanks! Are you alright?!"

Beckman called out from a distance.

"I'm fine... I'm not dying just yet."

Shanks wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression turning even more serious.

Endless waves of Conqueror's Haki burst from his body, engulfing him entirely. Fusing it with Armament Haki, he formed a two-layered Haki armor around himself.

The overwhelming aura created a shockwave, briefly forcing back the surrounding Conqueror's Haki field unleashed by Lucifer.

"Oh?"

Lucifer raised an eyebrow, then sneered.

"Twice."

Although Shanks hadn't completely repelled Lucifer's Conqueror's Haki, he had managed to defend himself—which was impressive in itself.

Similarly, in the distance, Whitebeard had also formed a two-layered Haki armor to protect himself.

Despite his age and declining strength preventing him from unleashing a full Conqueror's Haki domain, Whitebeard was still capable of forming a powerful Haki shield around his body.

Compared to the two of them, Beckman was at a disadvantage.

He hadn't awakened Conqueror's Haki, and while his Armament Haki was at its peak, he could only form a single-layered Haki armor.

Facing Lucifer's overwhelming Conqueror's Haki domain with just that alone—it was clear he wouldn't last long.

Lucifer's eyes flashed coldly as he suddenly increased the intensity of his Conqueror's Haki.

Beckman's armor shuddered under the pressure, cracks rapidly spreading across it.

Whoosh!

A black shadow flickered—Lucifer had teleported right in front of Beckman.

"You should step aside!"

"Shinra Tensei!"

Boom!

Lucifer's palm slammed into Beckman's chest, and a terrifying burst of repulsive force, infused with his two-layered Haki, erupted.

Lucifer's attack was so fast that Beckman had no time to react. Before he could even register the impact, he was already—
