Cornell in Danger!

The golden light emanating from the Buddha Form and the shockwaves it released clashed fiercely with the overwhelming sword light unleashed by John's twin blades under the dark clouds.

In this extremely dark sea area, where sunlight is almost non-existent, the passage of time seems to cease to exist.

Even at night, under the roar of artillery fire, the dazzling Flying Slash, and the radiant light of Buddha, it is not much different from daytime.

Those who are still alive on both sides of the war can probably sense that a day, or perhaps two, has passed.

But nobody cared, because the other person was still alive.

John was initially very confident about defeating Sengoku, because he had fought against a much younger Sengoku when he was still with the Rocks Pirates.

At that time, Sengoku was an extremely resilient opponent to him; his other strength, speed, and the power of his shockwaves were nothing special.

But now.

"Shockwave!!"

[Boom--]

A pale golden shockwave, visible to the naked eye, slammed out from the golden Buddha's giant palm, blasting any daring strike into a sky full of brilliance with unparalleled force.

"Hateful!"

Seeing his powerful, prized strike shattered once again, John's face darkened along with his mood.

What angered him even more was that, faced with the still-powerful shockwave, he was pushed back repeatedly, and his chest even throbbed with pain from the impact countless times.

How could the Sengoku have become so powerful?

What terrifying talent! Their strength has reached this level, yet there's still room for improvement. This reminded John of the younger members of the Rocks Pirates.

Why did he retreat from the 'New World' to the 'Paradise'?

Although he couldn't voice his resentment and anger, he knew he simply couldn't compete with monsters like Shiki, Newgate, Roger.

Even Charlotte Linlin, Kaido was able to be his equal a few years ago!

Helpless, in order to protect the Rocks' Treasure in his possession, he had no choice but to flee with his tail between his legs to the first half of the journey to form his own pirate crew.

Even after arriving here, he could only keep a low profile and dared not reveal any trace of himself, all of which made him feel extremely frustrated.

Unfortunately, his potential seemed to have reached its limit; he had already sensed his strength stagnating when he was under Rocks's command.

This new Immortal Stone Sengoku seems to be another monster whose potential has not yet been exhausted!

Although they are all at the top level in this world, this does not mean that there are no differences in strength among the top.

The term "top-tier" simply means absolute suppression of those below it.

At this moment, John, compared to Sengoku was unharmed and whose Buddha-like aura remained intact, had more or less suffered damage and injuries.

It's just that no blood has been drawn yet.

But he knew very well that if he continued fighting like this, he would only lose!

The fighting below was still fierce and brutal, with corpses rising and falling in the reddish waves. As far as the eye could see, they were mostly navy men in white shirts and blue trousers.

This is not surprising, because every member of John Pirates wore various kinds of armor, and when they died in battle, they would simply fall into the deep sea.

Such a strong stench of blood and 'food' naturally attracted a large number of sea beasts, even Sea Kings, so at some point, it was no longer just a battle between humans.

In particular, the large number and size of warships have become the primary targets of attacks by many sea monsters, forcing the navy to divert some of its firepower to them.

This led to more swordsmen, knights, and warriors rushing out from John Pirates ship, causing heavy casualties among the frontline navy.

The entire naval battlefield became even more chaotic!

But something in the unseen world seemed to think that this wasn't enough, and the temperature and wind direction began to change without anyone noticing.

[Bang!]

Ochoku forced back Vice Admiral Cornell, who was charging forward again, with a single slash. Then, he Hardening his left fist with Armament Haki, causing a colonel wearing a Colonel to cough up blood and be thrown off the deck, falling into the sea with a splash.

A dark green sea monster seized the opportunity to pounce on it and swallowed it whole, then submerged back into the dark depths of the sea.

"Not enough!"

"Navy, if this is all you've got, you won't be able to stop us this time!" Ochoku surveyed the entire battlefield and said to Vice Admiral Cornell in a deep voice.

The latter rubbed his numb hand, his breathing rapid and heavy. He knew the other person was right; at least he could only hold him off.

Unless another veteran Vice Admiral arrives with a fleet to provide support, there is no hope of defeating the John Pirates.

While pondering a solution, Lieutenant Vice Admiral Cornell took out six or seven green beans from the left pocket of his coat and stuffed them into his mouth.

Soon, a pale green halo appeared around him, and his sore muscles and tired mind were quickly restored.

This scene slowed Ochoku's slaughter of the surrounding navy somewhat, and he frowned as he looked at Cornell, whose aura had become stronger again.

What did you eat?!

"Heh, it's just a snack my precious son is giving to his father, nothing to worry about." Vice Admiral Cornell smiled and instantly appeared in front of Ochoku, slashing him with his sword.

[Clang--]

"This guy's really recovered!" Ochoku thought to himself, feeling the force from the blade. "Could this be some kind of medicine developed by the Navy?"

Regardless of his thoughts, Vice Admiral Cornell swung his longsword, unleashing streaks of light, and engaged in another fierce battle with him.

[Clang!]

The clanging of swords against swords echoed continuously, occasionally scattering brilliant sparks.

"Hmph, he's only recovered his stamina; his strength doesn't seem to have improved at all," Ochoku sneered, narrowing his eyes.

"If that's all, it's still far from enough!"

"Hah--" He shouted, and his body erupted with an even stronger aura, the force in his hands suddenly increasing several times.

"Five Peaks Slash!"

The two-meter-long broadsword was coated with a layer of jet black, followed by a flash of bronze-yellow light on the blade, and in an instant, it unleashed five bright yellow Flying Slashes.

These Flying Slash blades were extremely wide, and the five of them joined together like a mountain pressing down on the hundreds of sailors on the deck.

Its speed wasn't very fast, but it basically covered the entire warship, leaving no room to dodge. Even the deck in front of Ochoku cracked layer by layer under the heavy pressure of the blade.

He intends to annihilate the entire navy here, along with its warships!

If Cornell didn't want to watch these naval units of all ranks be slaughtered, he would have to face this attack head-on.

This was a choice that required no hesitation. Vice Admiral Cornell gritted his teeth and instantly teleported to the front line, his arm muscles bulging as he unleashed his strongest blade of light to meet the attack.

[Boom--]

The next moment, the pale blue Flying Slash collided with the mountain-like bright yellow blade light, and at the instant of contact, it burst into the most extreme white light.

The massive Valiant warship was split into two sections by its upper and middle sections, barely held together by the thin bottom of the ship.

In the end, Ochoku's strength was superior, and his violent slash energy instantly shattered the longsword in Vice Admiral Cornell's hand.

He was spitting blood as he flew backward, smashing through the steel plate and disappearing into the gun bay of the triple-mounted naval gun at the bow.

"Vice Admiral Cornell!!"

High in the distance, Rear Admiral Dewitt, who was engaged in a high-speed battle with several warriors and knights, suddenly heard an unsettling cry.
