Officers' Victory, Dawn of Victory

"Foz is finished,"

Although Jinbe's appearance was marked by various mishaps, including being chased by Magellan and having his chest pierced by Akainu...

This doesn't mean he's weak; it's just that his opponents were all top-tier fighters! As a powerless individual, Jinbe's strength is considered above average among the Shichibukai. Although his fighting style isn't flashy, his foundation is the most solid. His forty years of rigorous training in Fish-Man Karate has left him with no weaknesses whatsoever.

As for Who's Who, his talent within CP9 is even below Rob Lucci's. Although his bounty is 546 million Beli, he's no match for a serious Jinbe.

A true CP9 genius: using his tail to immobilize someone before unleashing a powerful attack.

The fake CP9 genius: He gets his tail stepped on and still gets hit by someone else's ultimate move.

"Fish-Man Karate - Oni Gawara Seiken!"

As Jinbe stepped on Who's-Who's tail, he delivered a perfectly fair punch to his opponent.

This punch was neither fast nor powerful, resembling the effortful punch thrown by a novice just learning martial arts; it didn't even touch Foz-Foe! But the next second:

The air around Foz-Fur was constantly twisting, deforming, shattering, and exploding. Foz-Fur's towering, half-beast form rippled violently, like a reflection of a stone thrown into a lake!

Click, click, click—

Amidst a strange, shattering sound, ripples of water appeared out of thin air and spread in all directions, while Foz-Foe himself began to tremble violently in circles!

However, all these strange phenomena lasted only a short time, perhaps a second, perhaps half a second, before Jinbe withdrew his fist. The towering Who's-Who stood before him poised to pounce! It seemed as if claws and fangs would once again descend upon Jinbe in the next instant, and then:

He pounced on it!

He then passed Jinbe and fell to the ground.

Thump,

One-hit kill!

It's not that Who's-Who ate a fake Zoan Devil Fruit; rather, he took Jinbe blow from Jinbe's ultimate technique. All the water in his body violently vibrated and surged throughout his entire being. The fact that his brain wasn't completely disintegrated by that punch is a testament to his physical strength.

Although Jinbe's moves are all very fair and square, his core water control technique is actually a very ruthless and domineering skill!

The fact that the human body is 70% water is Jinbe's best weapon in mastering Fish-Man Karate to its highest level.

However, it becomes quite weak when facing powerful Logia opponents.

"Very well, Foz-Foe has lost."

As Jinbe retreated—though he had defeated Who's-Who, Jinbe wasn't unscathed. Reminded by the fluttering white doves, Jinbe went to Hiyori Kozuki's side to heal his wounds, while also protecting the princess of Wano Country. Meanwhile, 'Roman No. 1' went to inspect other battlefields, since it would be ridiculous if it accidentally overturned there.

"Apoo!!"

With a voice brimming with anger, Kid, with his red spiky hair and a captain's coat, charged toward Scyllachuman Apoo, who was dressed in a long robe with the word 'sound' embroidered on his chest, wearing headphones and black glasses, and had teeth like piano keys.

"You traitor, I will never forgive you!!"

As the one-armed Kid charged at high speed, wherever he passed, the weapons, guns, and armor scattered on the ground seemed to writhe as if they were alive, flying out of thin air and sticking to his left arm.

The creaking and tearing of metal grew louder and louder, almost drowning out the surrounding sounds of battle. The broken metal objects rapidly came together in a complex assembly, changing their original shapes. In the blink of an eye, the weapons and armor that had been Luffy towards them were assembled, and even some damaged gun parts were rolling toward them.

As Kid charged, even more metal objects flew towards him, these fragmented components automatically assembling into a massive metal monster with arms and a head. Finally, even some destroyed cannons were incorporated into this bizarre machine.

"Magneto Demon!"

It's a long story, but in just a few seconds, when it rushed in front of Apoo, the metal monster's arm swung around with a deafening roar, and its huge fist, made of countless metals, slammed down on the panicked Beasts Pirates ' "True Striker".

"Magnetic String!"

Boom—

Poor Apoo didn't even have time to play his 'battle music' before Kid punched him into the mud. If it weren't for the fact that this guy had already joined the Beasts Pirates and then attracted Kaido during the alliance, Kid wouldn't have been beaten half to death and earned the title of 'King of Bricklaying' in Udon.

Killer and his many crew members were treated like dogs by Kurozumi Orochi, all for their own sake!

Now that enemies have met, their eyes are filled with hatred!

It's only a matter of time before Apoo gets beaten up by the enraged Kid. Meanwhile, on the other side:

"Hawkins, just how many 'doubles' have you made for yourself?!"

In terms of pure fighting strength, Killer surpasses Hawkins. However, Hawkins' main profession is fortune telling, and fighting is just a side job. In addition, the Straw-Straw Fruit allows him to create 'Stands', transferring any damage he suffers onto someone else.

It is an extremely shameless ability. Two years ago in the Sabaody Archipelago, Hawkins used this ability to hold out against Kizaru for more than ten seconds, which was much more impressive than the performance of other Supernovas were defeated with a single kick!

"Very few left, hehehe..."

Killer decided not to waste any more words with Hawkins, who had transformed into a giant scarecrow in his "Demon Subjugation Form".

No matter how many 'lives' they have, just kill them!

With his unique weapon Punisher Scythe, spinning rapidly in a burst of light, Kira nimbly dodged Hawkins's long nail weapon, the Demon Subjugation Form. With a swift movement of his long arm, Killer plunged his scythe into the giant scarecrow's waist.

"Hehe, although there's not much left..."

"But the key is to see who the owner of this 'stand-in' is."

Hit again, Hawkins merely smiled calmly, which suddenly made Killer, who was wearing a blue and white striped mask with several small holes, feel uneasy.

"Waaaaah—!"

On the other side, the giant metal robot that was pressing down on Apoo suddenly staggered. Kid, who was on the robot's chest, looked down at the sudden wound on his waist and gritted his teeth.

"What happened? Where did this injury come from?!"

Moreover, it looks just like the Killer cut out!

"Could it be that your remaining substitute is...?"

In this situation, Killer, who had just 'successfully' succeeded, instantly realized what was happening.

"That's right, it's fun to let you kill Kid unconsciously; but isn't it also quite nice to see you helpless?"

"If you want to kill me, you'll have to kill your captain first."

"Come on, let's keep fighting!"

Faced with Hawkins' villainous demeanor, even the combative Killer, who loves fighting, was momentarily at a loss, causing the 'Roman No. 1' in the sky to roll its eyes.

"That's easy,"

?

The descending white doves attracted the attention of two 'Worst Generation' Supernovas.

The Straw Hat crew's White Knight? X2

"Killer, cut off his left hand!"

?!

"Kid's left hand is broken, so go ahead and slice it off! It would be best to slice Hawkins' left hand off layer by layer and see if this fortune teller can still maintain his composure."

Is this even possible?

"Fuchh... that makes sense!"

Seeing that Killer, who was wielding the Punisher's twin scythes, was about to attack again, Hawkins immediately changed his move, raising his hands high with his fingers loosely clenched, resembling both claws and palms.

"I surrender."

!!

Tch, no wonder he's a fortune teller.

The white dove snapped its short, pointed beak, indicating that the opponent had already calculated the chances of the Beasts Pirates winning.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have surrendered so easily.

On the upper right of Onigashima:

"ROOM - The Tact!"

With a flick of Trafalgar Law finger, Kaido's club smashed a rock that had appeared out of nowhere into dust, and Ashura Doji, who was supposed to be facing the 'Eight Precepts', appeared behind everyone.

"Damn it... it still doesn't work...?"

Not only Ashura Doji, but also the Bad People and other Red Scabbards slumped to the ground. Because:

"Well done!"

Kaido, carrying his spiked club on his shoulder, looked around. First, Luffy, Ace, Yamato fought him. Then, the vice-commander of the Bad People unleashed his full power after activating the Word-Word Fruit, and with the assistance of the other Bad People, they launched a siege!

Immediately afterward, the Red Scabbards swarmed forward, unleashing their signature techniques on Kaido, even employing the Two-Sword Style they had secretly learned from Kozuki Oden. The result, however, was still the same:

"I haven't felt this much pain in a long time,"

Kaido's defense is too high!

His dragon scales and Armament Haki made him virtually invincible; even top-tier fighters couldn't break through his defenses. Clearly, Ashura Doji, Inuarashi in his Sulong form, and Nekomamushi were all at the level of the All-Stars! The Vice-Commander of the Bad People, unleashing his full power, even reached Emperor-level attack. However:

"What, you're already done for?"

Kaido covered his forehead, looking disappointed.

"I've only just started to get into the swing of things, don't let you guys give up before I've even warmed things up!!"

········

Faced with Kaido's roar, both the Bad People and the Red Scabbards silently rose to their feet. After all, both organizations harbored a deep-seated hatred for Kaido, even if it meant fighting to the death—

"Let's do it,"

Luffy forward and adjusted his straw Straw Hat.

"I know you are very unwilling and want to defeat Kaido with your own hands, but:"

"Let us end this battle, after all—I am the one who will become the King of the Pirates."

"I made a promise with a little girl,"

Ace also stepped forward.

"I promised her that when she comes to Wano Country next time, I will make sure that everyone here has enough to eat."

"I will open the Wano Country!"

Yamato also picked up his spiked club.

"Let this country no longer be closed off from the world, no longer suffer oppression, and truly open its eyes to see the world! If not—I am not worthy to call myself Yamato Kozuki!"

·······

You're still a proponent of "Western learning spreading to the East"!

The Roman No. 1 flying overhead is beyond words, but on another note:

Yamato used the Haki and fighting techniques taught by Kaido to fight Kaido, which really had a bit of the flavor of 'learning from the barbarians to subdue them'.

"Aurororo, you little devils!"

Facing three Division Commander with combat strength of that level, Kaido smiled arrogantly.

"You want my position?"

"Come on! I'm right here, I won't hide or flinch! Take my head and my territory if you want!"

If you can do it—

Even in a battle of attrition, Kaido was confident he could defeat these three young men, but:

Accidents never happen unexpectedly!

On the other side of Onigashima, Big Mom's expression changed drastically during the battle! Meanwhile, Perospero, the eldest son of 'Diamond' Jozu, who was trapping 'Diamond' Jozu with sticky syrup, also changed his expression, because:

In his arms, a page of a book began to shake violently! It was a creation of the power of Charlotte Mont-d'Or, the 19th son of the Charlotte family, who possessed the "Book Book Fruit." As Perospero pulled out the page, a brief and hastily written sentence appeared on it.

'Home is in danger, return immediately!!!'

?!

"Mother,"

Just as Perospero looked up in Big Mom's direction, Big Mom dodged Roman with a single strike and charged toward her own children who were fighting the Whitebeard Pirates' captains.

"Walk!!"

Has Blackbeard finally made his move?

Everyone else looked completely bewildered, except for Roman, the tall All-Rounder Knight, whose eyes flickered.

It seems Burgess did live up to his 'expectations,' successfully leading the Blackbeard Pirates to Whole Cake Island. If Big Mom doesn't run fast, her home base will be destroyed! Thus:

The goddess of victory has already smiled upon the Straw Hat crew.
