Chapter 84 - Wano War - 6

Onigashima's upper levels were a maelstrom of destruction—Wano's rebels carved through Beasts Pirates with flashing katanas, stone pillars crumbled under the roars of zoan transformations, and the air crackled with the raw power of Haki and supernatural forces.

In a vast arena, its walls scorched and floor fractured from prior battles, Alexander stood tall, his red cape billowing. Beside him, Julius, his grimoire glowing with time magic, radiated calm authority.

Opposite them loomed King, his black wings ablaze with flames, his pteranodon form a harbinger of destruction, Haki coating his talons and masked face. The arena quaked as their battle ignited, a clash of conquest, time, and fire that threatened to tear the hall apart.

Alexander, his eyes blazing with the ambition of a conqueror, summoned his chariot, **Gordius Wheel**, lightning crackling as it roared across the arena, Haki amplifying its speed. His voice boomed, echoing with resolve. "King, your flames burn for tyranny. For Wano, for my army of companions, I'll conquer you with the might of our shared will!"

Julius, his grimoire floating before him, added calmly, "Your reign ends here, King. Time bends to my will, and Wano's future will be free."

**King (snarling, flames surging around his wings):** "Conquerors? Wizards? I'm King, Kaido-sama's unyielding flame! My pteranodon wings'll burn you to ash, and Wano's mine to crush! You're nothing against my fire!"

King transformed fully, his pteranodon form soaring, wings wreathed in Haki-infused flames, talons gleaming with Armament Haki. He dove with **Blazing Talon**, Haki-coated claws slashing downward, flames trailing like comets, scorching the air.

Alexander met it with **Gordius Charge**, his chariot surging with Haki and lightning, clashing with King's talons in a shower of sparks, the impact cracking the arena floor into jagged shards.

Julius cast **Chrono Stasis**, Haki-infused time orbs freezing King's wings mid-strike, halting his dive momentarily. King broke free with **Inferno Burst**, a Haki-charged flame wave that shattered the orbs, forcing Julius to dodge, his cloak singed by the heat, stone melting nearby.

Alexander summoned **Ionioi Hetairoi**, his Reality Marble unfolding a vast desert battlefield, spectral soldiers materializing, their Haki-coated spears glinting as they charged King, slashing his wings, blood dripping onto the sand.

King countered with **Flame Tempest**, a Haki-infused firestorm that swept through the Reality Marble, incinerating dozens of spectral soldiers, their forms dissipating in clouds of ash.

Julius struck with **Mana Zone: Time Flow**, Haki enhancing his time magic to slow King's movements, allowing Alexander to land **Sword of Cypriot**, a Haki-charged blade strike from his chariot, gashing King's chest, scales cracking, blood streaming.

King roared, his **Iron Wing**, a Haki-coated defense, deflecting further blows, his flames scorching the desert, sand turning to glass.

King's speed was relentless, his **Ptero Dive** plunging with Haki-infused talons, flames trailing, aiming to shred Alexander. Julius intervened with **Chrono Rewind**, Haki amplifying his spell to reverse time, pulling Alexander back from the strike, though the effort strained him, blood trickling from his nose.

Alexander retaliated with **Bucephalus Charge**, his spectral steed trampling King, Haki-coated hooves cracking his scales, blood spraying. King's **Blaze Barrage**, a volley of Haki-infused fireballs, exploded across the Reality Marble, wounding spectral soldiers and grazing Alexander's arm, blood seeping through his armor.

Julius cast **Time Snare**, Haki-infused temporal chains binding King's wings, slowing him, but King's **Inferno Roar**, a Haki-charged flame blast, shattered the chains, singeing Julius's shoulder, pain flaring as his robe charred.

The battle escalated, King's pteranodon form a blazing juggernaut, his Haki-charged flames and aerial speed testing Alexander and Julius's synergy, the arena trembling with each clash. Alexander pressed forward, spectral cavalry charging with Haki-infused lances, piercing King's wings and legs, blood spraying across the desert sands.

King countered with **Blazing Cyclone**, a Haki-charged fire vortex that incinerated dozens of soldiers, their forms vanishing, the Reality Marble trembling under the strain.

Julius cast **Chrono Acceleration**, Haki enhancing his speed, weaving through flames to strike with **Temporal Slash**, a Haki-infused time blade that gashed King's leg, slowing his flight, though King's **Iron Talon**, a Haki-coated claw strike, grazed Julius's side, blood soaking his robe, pain searing.

King dove with **Ptero Apocalypse**, a Haki-charged plunge, flames and talons aimed to crush Alexander, the air warping with heat.

Alexander met it with **Gordius Tempest**, his chariot spinning with Haki and lightning, clashing in a deafening explosion, the arena's walls cracking, rubble raining.

Julius supported with **Mana Zone: Time Stop**, Haki amplifying his spell to freeze King mid-dive, allowing Alexander to land **Conqueror's Blade**, a Haki-charged sword strike that cracked King's mask, blood streaming down his face.

King broke free, his **Flame Dominion**, a Haki-infused fire dome, engulfing the arena, burning spectral soldiers and singeing Alexander's cape, pain flaring as flames licked his arms, blood dripping from burns.

Alexander's endurance was tested, his Reality Marble straining under King's relentless flames, but he summoned **Hetairoi Surge**, a wave of Haki-coated spectral soldiers charging, their spears piercing King's flanks, blood pooling.

Julius cast **Chrono Erosion**, Haki-infused time magic aging King's scales, weakening his **Iron Wing** defense, cracks spreading.

King's **Blaze Fang**, a Haki-charged bite, snapped at Julius, but Alexander intercepted with **Bucephalus Slam**, his steed's Haki-coated charge knocking King back, scales shattering, blood spraying.

King's relentless assaults pushed both warriors, their Haki draining, blood pooling—Alexander's arm gashed by talons, Julius's shoulder bleeding from flames.

Julius noticed King's flames dimmed when overextended, his stamina faltering under sustained attacks. He baited a **Blazing Talon**, casting **Chrono Bind**, Haki-infused temporal chains slowing King's dive, allowing Alexander to strike with **Gordius Strike**, a Haki-charged chariot charge that smashed King's chest, ribs cracking, blood gushing.

King roared, unleashing **Inferno Cataclysm**, a Haki-charged firestorm that scorched the Reality Marble, wounding soldiers and burning Alexander's leg, pain searing, his armor charred.

Julius countered with **Time Reversal**, Haki amplifying his spell to heal Alexander's wounds slightly, restoring his strength, though the strain left Julius gasping, blood dripping from his mouth, his grimoire flickering.

Alexander and Julius's synergy overwhelmed King's ferocity, their Haki and supernatural powers exploiting his weakening defenses, the arena a wreck of scorched sand and shattered stone.

Alexander unleashed **Ionioi Hetairoi: Final Charge**, his spectral army surging with Haki-coated spears and swords, swarming King, piercing his wings and legs, blood pooling across the desert.

Julius cast **Mana Zone: Chrono Collapse**, Haki-infused time magic slowing King's movements to a crawl, his flames flickering as time weighed on him.

King countered with **Ptero Inferno**, a Haki-charged fire dive, aiming to crush both, flames roaring, but Alexander's **Gordius Thunder**, a Haki-infused chariot charge, and Julius's **Temporal Blade**, a Haki-charged time slash, struck simultaneously, gashing King's chest and wings, scales shattering, blood spraying.

King's **Blaze Armageddon**, a final Haki-charged fire explosion, shook the arena, flames consuming the Reality Marble, wounding spectral soldiers and burning Alexander and Julius, their clothes charred, blood streaming from fresh wounds—Alexander's shoulder gashed, Julius's arm burned.

Alexander, battered, summoned his last reserves, unleashing **Conqueror's Will**, a Haki-charged sword strike backed by his army's unified might, slashing King's flank, blood gushing. Julius followed with **Chrono Annihilation**, a Haki-infused time spell that aged King's wounds, weakening his body further, scales crumbling.

King staggered, his flames dimming, and collapsed under **United Conquest**, a combined Haki-charged assault—Alexander's chariot and Julius's time blade striking as one, felling King in a heap, his pteranodon form reverting to human, unconscious, his mask shattered amidst the rubble.

**Alexander (panting, cape tattered, chariot fading):** "For… Wano… conquest prevails."

**Julius (gasping, grimoire dimming):** "Time… has spoken. Freedom rises."

Alexander and Julius, bloodied but unbowed, stood over King's fallen form, their victory a testament to their mastery of Haki, Iskander's conquest-driven Reality Marble, and Novachrono's time-manipulating magic. The rebels surged forward, their katanas gleaming with renewed vigor, as the Beasts Pirates faltered, their ranks crumbling under the loss of their final All-Star.
