One Piece: Three Fruits, Starting with the Dark-Dark Fruit

Unlike the humid and misty Kirigakure, Iwagakure has very dry air and is located in a more secluded area surrounded by mountains.

Giger and his two companions appeared directly above the center of Iwagakure, looking down at the bunker-like houses below. Giger chuckled.

"As expected of Iwagakure, a village famous for its defenses, these buildings look very sturdy."

Lily said dismissively,

"It's still just as vulnerable. I think we should just raze this place to the ground. That way, the Jinchuriki will definitely jump out on his own."

"Let's avoid pointless destruction. Our only goal here is the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Kaguya. You should be able to sense his presence by now, right?"

Kaguya nodded respectfully, pointed to a tall building below, and said softly,

"Lord Giger Saint, he is currently in that tallest building."

Following Kaguya's gaze, Giger saw a sign with the character "土" (earth) hanging on the top of the building. That was the Tsuchikage Building, the residence of the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki.

It seems that a fight is inevitable today. Jig knows a bit about Onoki's personality; he's as hard and stubborn as a rock. He definitely won't hand over the Five-Tails like Mei Terumi.

After all, Onoki was the longest-serving Tsuchikage, and Iwagakure is currently at its most prosperous period in history, so it's only natural that it's somewhat powerful.

Inside the Tsuchikage Building,

Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, was reporting to the Tsuchikage Onoki about the successful completion of his mission. Onoki nodded in satisfaction after listening and then spoke to Kurotsuchi, who was standing to the side.

"You should also become an excellent ninja like Han in the future."

Heitu pursed his lips and said with a hint of helplessness,

"I know, I know, honestly, old people just love to nag. No wonder Deidara-nii-san wanted to..."

"You're talking nonsense again!"

Onoki glared at Kurotsuchi, who didn't finish her sentence. However, Kurotsuchi's defiant expression infuriated Onoki, but he couldn't do anything about his precious granddaughter. He could only glare and puff his cheeks, but Kurotsuchi ignored him completely.

Han didn't want to get involved in the "intimate interaction" between the grandfather and grandson, and was about to say goodbye when suddenly, Onoki's expression changed, and his eyes were fixed on what was behind Han.

Han suddenly turned around and saw a black mass appear in the air. Then, the three of them, including Jig, floated out from it.

This kind of entrance naturally aroused Onoki's high vigilance. He immediately floated up, his hands hanging at his waist, and said coldly,

"Who are you? Do you know where you are?"

Giger merely glanced at Kurotsuchi beside Onoki, remarking that the nickname "Leg Shadow" was truly fitting.

Having verified the quality of the leg shadow, Giger looked at the man who seemed to be facing a formidable enemy and nodded.

"Found you, Five-Tails Jinchuriki."

Seeing that Jig dared to ignore him and that his target was the precious Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure, Onoki immediately stopped talking nonsense. He raised his hands in front of his chest, activated his chakra, and a white light flashed between his palms, condensing into a white transparent barrier.

This is the most powerful ninjutsu in the ninja world today: Dust Release.

With this move alone, Onoki can be considered the strongest offensive force among the Five Kage.

Onoki pushed his palms open and shouted.

"Dust Release: Particle Style - Detachment Technique!!"

Suddenly, the white barrier in his palm expanded, instantly enveloping the three of them. The next second, blinding white light filled the entire room. However, when the white light faded, Onoki was so shocked to see the three of them standing there unharmed that he almost fell to the ground.

Kurotsuchi and Han, who were present, were even more incredulous. What had they just witnessed? Someone had actually survived the Tsuchikage's Dust Release?! All three of them had been hit squarely by the Dust Release!

Giger glanced down at his spotless clothes and said calmly,

"Dust Escape's cleaning effect is really good."

"......"

To Onoki and the others, Gigg's words sounded incredibly arrogant, yet the scene they had just witnessed was truly terrifying. Having calmed down, Onoki looked at Gigg with a grave expression and said...

"who are you?"

Giger still showed no intention of answering the question; he simply raised one hand, palm facing Onoki.

A black vortex appeared, and an irresistible, powerful suction instantly pulled Onoki toward Giger. Onoki's Super Light Heavy Rock Technique was useless in the face of this suction. However, Onoki's combat experience was not to be underestimated, and in an instant, he made the best response to the situation.

He immediately used the Rock Fist technique, using the suction force to throw a punch at Giger.

boom! ! !

Dust flew as Onoki's invincible rock fist was shattered by Gigo's flick of his finger right before everyone's eyes. The petite Onoki was then grabbed by the neck and lifted into the air like a chick.

The moment they made contact, Onoki felt as if his chakra had been frozen instantly. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't mobilize it at all. And the terrifying strength in Jig's hand made it impossible for him to break free. Under these circumstances, the old man soon began to have difficulty breathing, and his face turned bluish from suffocation.

The time from Onoki's attack to his capture was incredibly fast. Kurotsuchi and Han, who were present, never imagined that their invincible grandfather/Tsuchikage would be defeated so easily.

Seeing that Onoki was in danger, Kurotsuchi and Han immediately attacked together. Considering that Onoki was still in Giger's hands, neither of them used ninjutsu, but instead used taijutsu to attack Giger.

Lily and Kaguya watched from the sidelines, showing no intention of intervening, as Kurotsuchi and Han rushed straight to Giger's side.

The two men, one on each side, kicked Jig's arm with a high sweeping kick, while Han used a kunai to stab Jig hard in the waist.

However, when their attacks hit Giger, it was as if they had hit a steel plate. Kurotsuchi's legs were throbbing with pain, and Han's kunai shattered in two.

Without even turning his head, Giger was instantly pressed to the ground by a pale purple gravitational field behind him.

Seeing that things were going badly, Heitu tried to pull his leg back, but it was too late. Jige suddenly reached out with his other hand, grabbed Heitu's fair ankle, and then with a little force, lifted him into the air.
