One Piece: Supreme Check-In System-Chapter 74: World Diva vs. God Knight Gunko — Clash of Song and Wrath

Chapter 74 - World Diva vs. God Knight Gunko — Clash of Song and Wrath

The battlefield above the raging sea was in chaos. Towering plumes of water erupted as titanic forces clashed, shockwaves distorting the air, and flashes of light and darkness tearing through the stormy skies.

In the midst of it, a singular figure burst forward with unmatched grace.

Uta, the World Diva, soared into the air as her Uta Uta no Mi (Song-Song Fruit) power wrapped around her like a cloak of melody. A radiant light engulfed her, transforming her slender frame into a majestic knight clad in shimmering, otherworldly armor. Her weapon—a colossal spear-like drill—materialized in her hand, spinning rapidly and humming with a melodic vibration.

Her crimson hair fluttered behind her like a flag of defiance.

Across from her, Gunko, the twisted God Knight, grinned. The air around him shimmered as white bandages slithered and weaved like serpents, forming intricate shapes. His Aro Aro no Mi (Bandage-Bandage Fruit) power came alive, shaping his bandages into weapons and beasts.

He lazily raised a hand.

"I love your songs, diva. Ever thought of being my personal song slave? I'd make you sing until your voice bled."

Uta gave him a wicked grin.

"Aahaha! Then become my flying fruit bitch, you mummy-wrapped freak."

Without another word, both charged.

Gunko's Technique: Aro Tenken: Taka no Seijin (Bandage Heaven Sword: Saint of the Hawk)

Gunko's bandages twisted and shot into the air, forming a massive bird-shaped construct, wings stretched wide, eyes glowing crimson. The bandage hawk screeched and dove toward Uta with monstrous speed, talons extended.

Uta didn't flinch.

Uta's Counter: Kyoku Kishi Drill (Melody Knight Drill)

The spinning spear-drill in her hand surged with soundwave energy, emitting harmonic vibrations that shattered the air itself. Uta thrust the drill forward as the hawk construct descended.

BOOM!

The collision sent shockwaves rippling for miles. The force was so intense that the sea split beneath them, walls of water rising on either side.

"Not bad, diva," Gunko laughed. "But I'm not done."

Bandages erupted from his body like a tidal wave, forming multiple flying beasts—wolves, serpents, and even a demonic bat—all soaring toward Uta from different directions.

Uta raised her left hand and began to sing, her voice haunting and beautiful, notes laced with supernatural force.

Uta's Technique: Shi no Serenade (Serenade of Death)

Soundwaves materialized as visible rings, expanding rapidly and slicing through the approaching bandage creatures like invisible blades. The beasts disintegrated midair, shredded to dust.

Uta's drill glowed brighter.

"You're not even worth my warm-ups."

But Gunko's grin only widened.

"Time to test your limits."

Gunko's Supreme Technique: Aro Kami no Kago (Bandage God's Sanctuary)

A massive dome of reinforced bandages encased the entire battlefield around them, cutting them off from the outside world. The space distorted, filled with flickering lights and eerie murmurs.

"No escape now, Diva."

Bandages shot toward Uta like spears, aiming for her throat and heart.

Uta's Ultimate Technique: Uta Banrai: Ten no Kokyō (Song Tempest: Heavenly Requiem)

Uta's body pulsed with radiant crimson light. Her drill-spear transformed, growing to double its size as musical notes spiraled around it. She spun in midair and slammed the weapon forward, unleashing a catastrophic burst of sonic shockwaves.

BOOOOM!

The force obliterated the approaching bandages and shattered part of Gunko's barrier dome. The blast struck Gunko square in the chest, tearing his torso apart.

His body was flung backward, slamming through his own bandage constructs.

Uta descended calmly, the sound-drill spinning beside her like a guardian spirit.

She frowned.

"Is it over?"

Gunko's headless corpse twitched on the ground.

But then, impossibly — his head began to regenerate. Bandages spiraled around the neck stump, weaving flesh and bone back together. Within seconds, Gunko's face reformed, wearing a savage grin.

"Oops. You forgot we're immortal." she cracked his neck. "But that stung a little."

Uta scowled.

"Fine. Then let's take this deeper."

Gunko's Binding Technique: Aro Dōmei: Shibari Kekkai (Bandage Union: Binding Barrier)

Thousands of bandage strands burst from his body, snaring Uta's arms and legs, pinning her in midair. The strands glowed with haki-infused strength.

"You're mine now, diva."

But Uta smirked darkly.

"You're in my world now, freak."

She began humming, an eerie, hypnotic tune that slipped through the cracks of reality.

Uta's Forbidden Song: Yume no Hakai (Dream Destruction)

The melody invaded Gunko's mind, dragging his consciousness into a nightmarish dreamscape where monstrous versions of Uta surrounded him, singing deathly lullabies.

Gunko struggled, lashing out, but in the dream world, his attacks had no effect. Uta appeared before him, eyes glowing red.

"Die in your own nightmare."

She raised her sound-drill and pierced his heart.

In the real world, Gunko's body convulsed, blood spraying from his mouth.

But even now, his Aro Aro no Mi awakened defense activated.

Gunko's Mental Barrier: Aro Kyōkai: Tamashii Tate (Bandage Boundary: Soul Shield)

A dome of spiritual bandages formed within his own mind, blocking the worst of Uta's mental assault. Explosions rocked the dreamscape as their wills clashed.

Back in reality, their battle sent waves of shock and sound through the sea, shattering rocks and splitting the tide. Nearby sea kings fled in terror as the very ocean seemed to scream under the pressure.

"Persistent bastard..." Uta hissed, sweat beading on her brow.

Gunko coughed up blood but laughed.

"Heh... you're... interesting. Maybe I'll keep your soul even if your body dies."

The surrounding sea was a warzone of explosions and destruction as the other battles raged on, but none as intensely as theirs.

"Let's end this round, bandage freak," Uta spat.

She raised her spear-drill one final time, blood streaming down her face.

Gunko grinned, battle-hungry.

Both launched themselves toward each other, their ultimate attacks ready to decide the clash.

As their final blows collided, the sea around them erupted in a mile-wide explosion of water and light — their monstrous auras locked in a deadly embrace.

The heavens rumbled.

And only one would walk away.
