"Are you kidding me..."

As Zoro watched as those weak but seemingly endless soldiers were swept away in an instant, he felt as if he had been struck by something enormous.

"Captain Cifer is back!"

Nolan turned around with delight and saw Cifer, who was in the Second Resurrección.

"Is the enemy difficult to deal with?"

Lucci, on the other hand, was much calmer. When he saw that Cifer had transformed into this form, he frowned and asked a question.

"It's not a problem that's difficult or not difficult; I just happened to want to do a small experiment."

Cifer looked up at Tot Musica.

The latter seemed to sense something and let out a deafening the Roar, which seemed to be mixed with an indescribable fear.

"Roar!"

It the Roar as if it had gone mad, and countless soldiers and weapons rained down on Cifer.

Without exception, as they approached him, they all seemed to be subjected to intense pressure and were crushed to pieces.

"Too powerful... so powerful it doesn't seem real..."

The Straw Hat Pirates, not far away, were already intimidated by the power of the Cifer.

The oppressive feeling emanating from this posture, which they had never witnessed before, was no less than that from Tot Musica.

"He really is like a monster. Luckily, he's not interested in ONE PIECE!"

Even though he has seen countless scenes and is now a sea warrior with Bounty of over 100 million, Usopp is still so frightened that his legs go weak.

"Don't get too close to me. I'm trying my best to suppress my Spiritual Pressure. Also, Lucci, go and catch all the troublemakers. Just make sure they're not dead."

Cifer waved for his companions to move away, and at the same time gave Lucci instructions.

This world can be described as a Reishi space, where everyone exists as a soul.

After liberating himself and returning to his most primal state, his Spiritual Pressure became so powerful that it could instantly destroy the entire Uta's World.

However, his control over Spiritual Pressure is so subtle that it is completely imperceptible to others.

"Learn."

Lucci and Kaku flew towards the crowd below.

"Captain Cifer, please save Miss Uta! She seems to have completely lost her hearing!"

As Nolan led his companions away from the battlefield, he shouted towards Cifer.

Uta is her idol, and she believes that her captain is omnipotent.

Can you understand me?

Cifer did not answer, but instead turned his gaze to the Ancient Demon King Tot Musica in front of him.

"Roar!"

The only response to Cifer was a furious roar, as if triggered by the sight of a natural enemy.

"That's true... I overestimated you. You were actually hoping to meet someone like you."

Cifer chuckled self-deprecatingly, as if somewhat disappointed.

"Roar!"

Tot Musica seemed to be enraged by his words and swung his huge hand at him.

"Don't get in my way."

With a casual slap, he sent its massive body flying, then lay on the ground groaning in pain.

Meanwhile, Lucci and Kaku had returned, and in the direction they pointed, hundreds of pirates lay half-dead on the ground.

"Stay here and don't move."

He gave Tot Musica a commanding look, and the latter actually froze on the spot, not daring to move.

"Bakudō #62: Hyapporankan: Hyapporankan".

Just to be on the safe side, Cifer unleashed a beam of light that spread out in the air, transforming into dozens of beams that pierced through its body, freezing it in place.

Immediately, Cifer flew downwards.

"You're kidding... That's the legendary Ancient Demon King! He has the power to destroy everything!"

The scene before her eyes terrified Brulee so much that her three eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Having recently Awakening her Three-Eyed Tribe powers, she became the Straw Hat Pirates' historian and intelligence source.

She knew more about the horrors of Tot Musica than most people did.

"How could a mere Ancient Demon King possibly be a match for Captain Cifer!"

Behind them, Nolan chuckled and spoke.

And below at this moment.

"Lord Ulquiorra... is there anything you need from us? Please give your orders, and we will do our utmost!"

The leader, though completely exhausted, still managed a fawning smile as he looked at Cifer.

"You can rest assured about that, because what we want... is your lives."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cifer's hand pierced through his chest.

Outside, in the real world.

"It's not moving?!"

The group was stunned as they stared at the enormous creature that had suddenly stopped attacking and stood motionless in place.

"Uta!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shanks leaped up and scooped up Uta, who was standing on Tot Musica's head and seemed equally stunned.

"Uta? What's wrong Uta!"

What worried him was that no matter how he called out to his daughter, she seemed to have lost her soul and just stared blankly at him.

"It seems that Tot Musica's will has taken control of her. What should you do, 'Red-Haired' Shanks?"

Everyone else saw the problem, but Kizaru spoke up as if he didn't want to stir things up.

"Damn it... Even that Black Winged Great Demon couldn't succeed? We really need to defeat Tot Musica first! Yasopp, can you do it?!"

Shanks didn't have time to pay attention to Kizaru's sarcastic remarks. Uta's face was growing paler, and he just wanted to wake her up as soon as possible so that he would have a chance to save her.

"I've managed to get in touch with that idiot son, but things seem a bit strange..."

Yasopp frowned.

From Usopp's perspective, he saw Tot Musica seemingly imprisoned, while Cifer was nowhere to be seen.

"It's better to rely on yourself than others. Besides, we don't know what his attitude is. Let's do it!"

After only a brief moment of thought, Shanks made a decision: they no longer had time to wait for a response from Cifer.

"First, the left leg!"

With communication between Yasopp and his son, they launched a simultaneous attack from both inside and outside, and Tot Musica's originally impregnable defense was indeed broken.

But what followed was its angry resistance.

The pain caused it to ignore Cifer's commands, forcefully break free of its restraints, and launch a counterattack against both sides.

"Didn't I tell you not to move?"

In reality, Cifer awoke again, his dark green pupils gazing at it, seemingly radiating an eerie light.

"Roar~"

At this moment, it no longer cared about fear, nor did it remember the difference in strength between itself and the person in front of it. It swung its arms and slapped towards Cifer.

"Rip!"

Suddenly, a sound like fabric being torn came from the sky.

Everyone looked up, their eyes filled with disbelief.

In the sky, space was torn open by several pale, bone-claw-like giant hands, from which monstrous heads emerged.
