"Does the Host want to use the Kurama Mode experience card?"
"Yes!!!"
The moment Ayr confirmed, an overwhelming, oppressive energy erupted from his body.
A power so majestic and terrifying that it sent violent ripples through the air, shaking the battlefield.
Ayr's aura surged to its absolute peak, radiating an unmatched intensity that suppressed everything around him. The energy was so overwhelming that it shocked many of the Roger Pirates into stunned silence.
Golden chakra markings, resembling the symbols of the Sage of Six Paths, appeared across Ayr's body. Kurama's energy engulfed him, wrapping him in a brilliant golden glow, making him look almost divine.
This was Kurama Chakra Mode!!!
Now, Ayr's insight, speed, and strength had been enhanced to unimaginable levels.
For the first time, he could fully tap into the power of this mode!
The Roger Pirates React
"W-What the hell just happened to him?!"
"Damn it, why is he suddenly glowing gold?! What Devil Fruit is this?!"
"That pressure… he feels completely different from before!"
"No, it's not an illusion. His entire body has undergone some kind of massive transformation!"
"Is he even human?! This level of power is insane!"
"Wait… could the rumors actually be true?!"
"They say Ayr's potential rivals that of Rocks D. Xebec himself… Is this what they meant?!"
The Roger Pirates felt an overwhelming sense of oppression just from Ayr standing there.
Even from a distance, none of them dared to get too close.
Rayleigh and Jabba, who had been ready to attack, suddenly froze, their expressions turning deadly serious.
Ayr smirked.
"What's wrong? Don't tell me you're scared?"
The power coursing through his body was unreal.
He had never felt this comfortable before—like he could crush anything in his path.
"I don't know what kind of ability this is," Rayleigh admitted, tightening his grip on his sword.
"But don't underestimate us."
"Jabba, let's go!"
"Got it!"
Jabba's usual smirk was gone, replaced with pure focus.
Before, they had been holding back, unwilling to go all out against one opponent.
But now?
Ayr's power was too dangerous to take lightly.
Now, they would fight him at full strength.
The Battle Resumes
"BOOM!!!"
Rayleigh and Jabba exploded forward, their combined charge so fast that the air itself screamed in protest, creating a sonic boom.
But to Ayr…
"Too slow."
In a flash, he vanished from sight.
Rayleigh's eyes widened in shock.
"What?! Where did he—"
"Shhh!"
Ayr reappeared instantly—right in front of Rayleigh.
"Impossible!!!"
Rayleigh barely had time to react before Ayr's blade came crashing down, slicing through the air with a deafening roar.
"CLANG!!!"
Rayleigh managed to block, but the impact was monstrous. A shockwave erupted, shaking the ground beneath them.
"BOOM!!!"
The ground beneath Rayleigh's feet collapsed, forming a massive crater. Cracks ripped through the earth, and dust and debris exploded into the air.
"So strong…!!!"
Sweat dripped down Rayleigh's forehead.
He had known Ayr would be stronger after his transformation—but this much?!
"Damn it… His strength has skyrocketed!!"
"CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!!!"
Ayr's relentless barrage pushed Rayleigh onto the defensive, forcing him back with every swing.
"Rayleigh!!!"
Jabba appeared behind Ayr, his twin axes slashing down toward him.
But Ayr—
Vanished again.
Jabba's axe struck empty air.
The Roger Pirates Are Stunned
"H-How is this possible?! Rayleigh and Jabba are losing?!"
"Just a moment ago, they had the upper hand! But now… Ayr is dominating the fight!"
"What the hell happened to his body?! How did he get this strong?!"
"His bounty is only 900 million… but he's fighting evenly with two men whose bounties total 2.5 billion Baileys?!"
Rayleigh: 1.4 billion Baileys
Jabba: 1.1 billion Baileys
They were Roger's strongest men, and yet…
Ayr was winning.
"Hahaha… Now THIS is interesting!"
Roger, watching from afar, grinned excitedly.
"Ayr, huh? He's stronger than I thought."
Charlotte Linlin's expression darkened.
"This bastard… He was hiding this power from me?!"
She had never fought Rayleigh or Jabba personally, but as one of the strongest pirates in the world, she knew—
These two men were not to be taken lightly.
Yet Ayr was handling them alone.
"How the hell did he become so strong?!"
Roger Joins the Battle
"Let me be your opponent, Ayr!"
Charlotte Linlin's focus snapped back as Roger suddenly abandoned their fight and rushed toward Ayr instead.
"Roger, you bastard! Are you running away?!"
She immediately chased after him, unwilling to let him escape.
Roger smirked.
"Rayleigh, Jabba—I'll leave the big woman to you."
For the first time, Roger's full attention was on Ayr.
He was intrigued.
"I see."
Rayleigh adjusted his stance, nodding.
"Leave her to us."
Rayleigh and Jabba blocked Charlotte Linlin's pursuit, forcing her to fight them instead.
And Roger…
Now stood before Ayr, his eyes burning with excitement.
"Looks like I've got a new opponent."
Ayr stared back calmly.
"You really want to fight me now?"
He had just started enjoying fighting Rayleigh and Jabba.
But it didn't matter.
No matter who the opponent was—
Ayr wasn't afraid.
