Imu struck again

After the disappearance of Saint Warcury, only Saint Saturn, who was not transported there via Teleportation Circle, remained at the scene!

Haku raised her Zanpakuto, ready to sever the dying head.

Suddenly, sensing something, he said, "Hmph! You come and go as you please? Don't you think you're taking me seriously?"

As Haku spoke, a black crack appeared beneath Saint Saturn.

A large hand swiftly reached out, preparing to grab Saint Saturn's body!

Haku's eyes widened!

His Conqueror's Haki erupted, firmly suppressing the giant hand.

Fortunately, the Master of that large hand wasn't stupid; he immediately released Saint Saturn, letting Saint Saturn's body fall.

Taking advantage of Saint Saturn's already considerable size, the force of the fall was enough to send the opponent directly into Saint Saturn's protective net.

Haku certainly wouldn't let them take away Saint Saturn's body so easily!

He held the Zanka no Tachi at his waist and assumed an iaido stance.

"Zanka no Tachi - North - Heavenly Ashes!!!"

To make things difficult for her opponent, Haku infused her Zanka no Tachi with a considerable amount of Spiritual Power.

I wonder if Imu is satisfied with Haku's move?

A dazzling light, as bright as the blazing sun, burst forth from his blade, carrying a terrifying heat capable of incinerating everything, and shot straight at the black crack that was about to heal.

This was not merely a single strike; it was Haku's response to the enemy's provocation and her unwavering commitment to justice.

Wherever the light passed, the air seemed to ignite, forming a blazing passage that led straight to the abyss of darkness.

The moment the black crack came into contact with the slash, it seemed to be engulfed by flames. The originally rapidly writhing dark edges began to tremble violently, and then emitted a series of piercing howls, which were the struggles of the dark power in despair.

Instead of healing, the cracks were torn wider by this force, revealing a deeper and more distorted spatial landscape behind them. The black space seemed to be ignited, flickering with an ominous red light, a product of the intense collision between high temperature and darkness.

As the slashes deepened, Imu's Dark Space began to show unprecedented turbulence.

The originally stable spatial structure seemed unable to withstand the impact of this force, and fine cracks began to appear, shattering like a mirror.

This force not only disrupted physical space but also challenged the will of the dark forces, making them feel an unprecedented threat.

However, as the Master of that Empty Throne, Imu naturally would not easily submit.

A deep, authoritative voice echoed from the darkness, seemingly responding to Haku's challenge. "A mere mortal dares to provoke the realm of gods. But your power does indeed pique my interest. I'll take your head sooner or later and send you to your death!"

As the sound faded, the turmoil in the Dark Space gradually subsided, and the torn cracks slowly healed, demonstrating Imu's absolute control over the dark forces.

But Haku knew that her strike had left an indelible mark on the darkness, proving that Imu was not omnipotent.

Before the rift could finally heal, Haku said, "Wait till I bring you down, you so-called 'god'!"

After exchanging harsh words, the two sides completely lost contact.

He slowly sheathed his Zanka no Tachi, his gaze sharp as he looked towards the unknown territory that had once been shrouded in darkness.

"This guy's strength has improved quite a bit. It seems he'll definitely be a tough opponent in the future!" Haku muttered to herself.

This isn't the first time Haku has faced off against Imu's Dark Space!

"Haku! Are you alright?"

Luffy ran all the way and quickly got close to Haku's side.

The others were also gradually making their way to Haku's location!

Luffy then hurriedly said, "Haku, do you know Grandpa..."

Haku waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about the old man, he's fine now!"

Luffy finally let out a long sigh and said, "That scared me to death! I thought something had really happened to Grandpa."

Haku nodded and said, "We were lucky this time. If I hadn't come to his aid in time, the old man would probably be dead by now!"

Nami then asked, "Was the five people behind Garp's mishap the mastermind behind it?"

"Yes, it's them!" Haku said.

Luffy, enraged, rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "These bastards! I'm going to send them all flying!!!"

Haku punched Luffy on the head and said, "You guys don't need to worry about this, I'll settle the score with them!"

Luffy nodded, then, as if remembering something, said to Haku, "Those five people seem to possess immortality. Haku, you need to be careful!"

Haku nodded to indicate that she understood.

"Damn Haku, didn't I tell you to go easy on me? Look at the state of Bullet Island!"

Haku has essentially dealt with World Government's influence on the island!

Therefore, Vegapunk didn't bother to hide the truth that he was still alive and appeared before everyone.

Haku waved her hand with a laugh and said, "I just accidentally used too much force. And you, don't think I don't know you've been secretly collecting data on me and analyzing my abilities."

"You're such a cheapskate! With your incredible abilities, what's wrong with letting us do some research?" Lilith (Vegapunk's clone) said dismissively.

Haku shrugged and said, "So what if I accidentally damaged Bullet Island?"

"You bastard! If you've got the guts, let's fight one-on-one. Believe me, I can take you down in a minute!" Lilith shouted angrily.

Vegapunk True Body smoothed things over, saying, "Alright, alright, let the island's facilities break down! We can take this opportunity to completely overhaul the island! The mayor of Water 7, Iceburg, created something incredible; we can make the entire Bullet Island move."

Haku knew what Vegapunk was up to, and he said, "Do you need me to send some people over to help? This is no small undertaking, taking the whole island adrift!"

Vegapunk waved his hand and said, "Actually, when the design for that Iceburg was sent to me, I had already begun the initial work of modifying Bullet Island. What I lack now is someone to temporarily protect Bullet Island!"

Haku nodded and said, "I brought Sabo and Crow with me. With their strength, as long as three Admiral don't appear at the same time, they should be able to handle it."

Vegapunk said, "Won't this delay the Revolutionary Army's plans? I remember you've already declared war on the World Government."

Haku shook her head and said, "It won't interfere with other things. After I've dealt with the navy, I think it's time to launch a full-scale attack on the Holy Land Mary Geoise."
