He suddenly realized the attacker's identity, but it was already too late.
A massive naginata imbued with tremor power and coated in Conqueror's Haki slashed viciously toward Ryokugyu's face.
Though Ryokugyu rapidly covered his entire body in Armament Haki, Whitebeard's attack was both fierce and swift.

Apart from the thunderstorm overhead and the water tornadoes raging across the sea, the entire scene was deathly silent.
"H-how is this possible? Am I dreaming? That was Admiral-level combat power! It was actually chopped to pieces just like that!"
