With a loud laugh, the man who called himself Azure suddenly towered in size.
His arms pressed close to his body, as if merging into it, his legs joined together, forming a thick snake tail, and azure scales appeared on his body.
In an instant, a man with a gloomy face had transformed into a massive monster with a human face and a snake's body.
"Hiss!"
His forked tongue, several meters long, flicked out, and his snake eyes stared at Vladimir from afar.
"Hmm?"
Vladimir paused, sizing him up. This man transformed into was a creature somewhere between a snake and a dragon. It was not aesthetically pleasing, but rather quite ugly.
"Far inferior to the Sea Dragon, so ugly." Vladimir thought to himself, but didn't rush to attack.
Although he believed he could handle the opponent, he might suffer if he was too reckless.
"Lich King, look into my eyes!"
Azure shouted, his blue snake eyes emitting a burst of intense light.
Vladimir glanced at them, and was immediately captivated by the eyes, as if they contained the truth of the world, mesmerizing him.
"Nightfall!"
Azure laughed, and one of his eyes suddenly closed. In that instant, Vladimir lost all light, as if night had fallen, and he could no longer see anything.
"An interesting ability."
Vladimir said calmly, not shaken in the slightest even by the sudden loss of vision.
"What do you think of being blind, unable to see anything?"
"Think?"
Vladimir smiled, stepping forward. After one step, he instantly charged out, like lightning, leaving behind an afterimage.
Seeing this, Azure's expression changed slightly. "No matter how strong someone is, they can't remain unshaken by suddenly losing one of their five senses... This person is a monster! Not only is he unshaken, but he's actively attacking!"
In a moment of bewilderment, Vladimir had already arrived in front of him. He turned his right palm into a fist, enveloped it in frost power, and struck without hesitation.
Boom!
The punch landed on the snake scales, failing to break through them, but the frost power coiling around the fist quickly spread.
Crack, crack, crack!
Azure was shocked to find that the part of his body that had been hit was completely unable to move. The frost power seemed to seal the soul.
"Courting death!"
He snorted angrily, flicked his snake tail, and heavily slammed it down on Vladimir.
As if sensing everything, Vladimir's left hand suddenly rose. The next moment, bang!
The thick snake tail struck the armor on his left arm. The heavy power instantly cracked the ground beneath Vladimir's feet, as if it would break through this level of hell.
"The brute force isn't anything special, not as good as Garp," Vladimir thought to himself, retreating quickly to escape the range of the attack.
Seeing this, Azure's gaze turned cold. "So you have Observation Haki. In that case, I'll make you lose your hearing and sense of touch as well!"
He opened his mouth, and thick black smoke billowed out. With a roar, a vast black mist was expelled.
"Dark Maze!"
As if endless, the dark mist that Azure exhaled completely filled all the visible space.
"Ahhhhh!"
Screams came from the prisons not far away.
"Damn it, that's that thing's ability!"
"Bastard, he's trying to kill us!"
The constant sounds, reaching Vladimir's ears, became weaker and weaker.
Not only that, he realized that his senses were declining. The whole person seemed to be trapped in a maze, isolated.
"Even though he's a Zoan-type, he has unique abilities like a Paramecia-type," Vladimir thought to himself. "Mythical Zoans are indeed powerful..."
Suddenly, a thick snake tail swept over.
With his senses weakened, even the Lich King was unable to react in time, and was directly knocked back by the tail.
"Hiss hiss hiss... Are you having a headache now?" Azure flicked his tongue, as if a hunter was mocking his prey.
"Hearing and touch are just the beginning. Soon your nerves will be confused. If you want to go left, your body might go right. If you want to run, you might just lie down. Let me enjoy your comical performance!"
As soon as his words fell, a light sigh came from the black mist.
"I am the Lich King, the Lord of all Undead." Vladimir patted his armor, slowly getting up. "I control souls, I strip souls. Your little tricks are useless."
"What?!"
Azure suddenly frowned. He sensed that something was wrong. Normally, anyone caught in the Dark Maze couldn't even hear sounds, yet this person could still talk to him.
"You think I'm talking with my mouth? I'm communicating with you directly with my soul."
Vladimir spread out his palms, and the dark armor around him emitted an eerie blue light. These lights were soul power, and they were gathering between his palms.
100 units... 500 units... 1000 units... 5000 units... 10000... 20000...
"I'm tired of your tricks. I don't have time to play with you. Let me finish you in one go!"
Saying this, Vladimir slammed the soul power in his palms hard onto the ground.
Boom!
A full 50,000 units of soul power, 5 times the soul summoning power of Ice Dragon Queen Sindragosa!
"Appear, my undead army!"
This was creating something from nothing!
The dazzling eerie blue light scattered the black mist. Azure was shocked, his mind shocked. He could sense that something powerful was being born under those palms.
Suddenly, he sensed a chilling air. The entire fourth level Blazing Hell, at this moment, the high temperature had disappeared.
Instead, there was severe cold. The dry air became icy cold, enough to freeze anything into an ice block.
