Yun Ye Appears!

"This attack wasn't bad, but that was all it was!"

Ichiji sneered. Gas burst from the boots beneath his feet, multiplying his speed severalfold in an instant. In the blink of an eye, he arrived before Ara. As Ara watched in horror, flames once again flared around Ichiji's fists. "Die! Spark Double Revolver!"

His fists shot out like cannonballs, striking Ara directly in the chest.

The blow sent Ara flying, carving a long trail across the ground before he finally came to a stop.

"Cough, cough..."

Ara coughed up several mouthfuls of blood and staggered to his feet, scorch marks appearing on his chest.

"Commander!"

Some Marines saw this and cried out in alarm.

But before they could rush over to support him, Germa's clone army launched its attack from behind, engaging the Marine soldiers.

For a moment, the entire scene descended into complete chaos.

Gunfire, cannon fire, battle cries, and screams rang out all at once!

The battle quickly became one-sided.

Under the assault of the fearless clone army and the enhanced humans Ichiji, Niji, and Yonji, the Marines were forced back again and again!

War meant death.

In just a few short minutes, large pools of blood had already spread across the ground...

Only Judge and Reiju remained still in the field.

Judge watched everything unfold with an indifferent gaze, not a ripple stirring in his eyes.

Reiju, however, showed a trace of reluctance in her eyes, though she concealed it well.

"Reiju, why aren't you making a move?"

Judge turned his gaze toward Reiju and spoke calmly.

Reiju's heart jolted, but she quickly recovered. "Father, I think Ichiji and the others are enough. I have no intention of acting against the weak."

Judge merely nodded and said nothing more.

Unable to discern what her father was thinking, Reiju did not speak again. She simply watched everything happening before her.

But just then, Judge suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction, his brows furrowing.

Reiju noticed it a moment later and looked up as well.

A figure was rushing over from that direction at astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, he was already not far from them!

As the distance closed, Judge and Reiju gradually made out the man's appearance.

Wearing a Black and White Mask and simple white clothes, with an unsheathed katana blade hanging at his waist—who else could it be but Yun Ye?

Yun Ye sped all the way over and finally arrived. Seeing both sides locked in battle, he frowned.

This is so brutal? As expected, the Marines are no match for the Vinsmoke Family...

Though he had already suspected as much, Yun Ye had not expected the battle to be so completely one-sided...

The Marines were simply no match for the Vinsmoke Family!

Then again, the strength of the Four Seas' Marine branches was right there for all to see. How could they possibly be a match for the Vinsmoke Family?

Only a branch base in the Grand Line would have the strength to withstand an attack by the Vinsmoke Family.

The P-5 Branch Marines had not fled and still stood fearlessly at the front. That alone earned Yun Ye's admiration!

Yun Ye's speed carried immense momentum. As he drew closer and closer, everyone on the battlefield heard the commotion.

"Something's wrong! Everyone, fall back!"

Although Ara had been struck by Ichiji, he specialized in Martial Arts and possessed great resistance to damage. He had only suffered some injuries; they were not fatal.

Seeing a mysterious figure suddenly appear on the battlefield, he feared that this might be someone from Germa launching an attack from behind. If they were caught between enemies, the situation would only worsen. He hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to stay alert and fall back!

Following the order, the Marines retreated to one side after losing several dozen men, watching the mysterious Yun Ye with grave expressions.

The Germa forces did the same, staring at Yun Ye, who had appeared so suddenly.

They took Yun Ye for a Marine!

Yun Ye landed without saying a word and walked toward the battlefield step by step.

Judge watched without reacting and remained silent.

"Who are you?"

A sharp glint flashed through Ichiji's eyes as he asked vigilantly.

Yun Ye still did not speak. He merely continued walking forward. No—more accurately, he was heading toward Judge.

Judge was positioned behind the battlefield, so Yun Ye had to pass through the fighting to reach him.

"Putting on an act!"

Niji, with his fiery temper, gave a cold snort. With a movement of his feet, he shot forward at extreme speed and threw a punch at this pretentious bastard.

All in blue... this should be Vinsmoke Niji, right? Yun Ye muttered inwardly as he watched the blue-clad man. However, his movements were not slow. In an instant, the blade at his waist was in his hand, and he swung it.

Whoosh...

A brilliant sword aura tore through the air and struck Niji directly, the massive slash sending Yonji flying.

However, it did not completely cut through the Battle Suit on his body, leaving only a small tear!

Yun Ye tightened his grip on his blade and looked at Yonji, who had been sent flying and smashed a huge hole into the ground. Germa's Battle Suits really are tough, but they aren't impossible to cut through!

From the feel of that slash just now, Yun Ye could tell that it was hard, but not impossible to break!

"You dared attack Germa? Are you tired of living?"

Seeing his younger brother attacked, a cold look flashed through Ichiji's eyes. His figure flickered as he charged out as well.

Scorching flames spread over his fist once more as he punched toward Yun Ye!

On the other side, Yonji followed close behind.

"Kid, that's not how you use fire." Yun Ye spoke calmly. White explosive flames surged in his palm before he thrust it forward. "Azure Firefall!"

With a boom, the pale explosive flames enveloped Ichiji and blasted him over a hundred meters away!

He crashed down with a thunderous impact, smashing a huge crater into the ground!

At the same time, Yonji's attack arrived. Seizing the gap between Yun Ye's attacks, he threw a savage punch!

A vicious grin spread across Yonji's face. This punch was impossible for this man to dodge!

However, Yonji's movements had always been within Yun Ye's perception. How could he possibly be hit?

Yun Ye smiled, spun around in an instant, and pointed with a finger. "Mouth Pierce Three Flashes!"

The next moment, three beams of light appeared from nowhere, "locking" onto Yonji's body and pinning him in place.

Yonji froze, unable to understand what had happened.

"You can go over there too!" Before he could think any further, Yun Ye attacked again. With a swing of his sword, sword aura swept out and sent Yonji flying as well!

A series of cracking sounds rang out as fractures appeared across Yonji's Battle Suit, and his body was sent flying backward!

Three strikes, three opponents driven back!

"What?!"

This time, everyone present was shocked.

Ara, especially, who had fought Ichiji before, had his mouth hanging wide open.

Judge's expression also darkened. He had not expected this mysterious man to appear and send several of his sons flying in just a few moves!

Wearing a mask... is he from the World Government? A cold gleam flashed through Judge's eyes as he guessed at Yun Ye's identity.
