Destroying the World, All Sides Converge

World:???

You can fight all you want, but why do you always want to destroy me at the drop of a hat?

Of course, most of those who talk about destroying the world are at most destroying 'humanity'. They might not even be able to destroy humanity itself, after all, human survival skills are unparalleled in the entire biosphere. However:

"I know you're still trying to provoke me, Neo."

Enveloped in layers of spatial shielding and Haki, Imu, who had been furious just moments before, suddenly calmed down and opened his arms.

"But I've waited eight hundred years for this day. To be honest, immortality is quite boring, passing the time reminiscing about the past in the 'Flower Room'... I want to thank you, Neo. You gave me a goal to wait for, so—"

"Now! I will grant your wish!!"

As Imu took to the air, her icy gaze swept over Neo and Luffy below. She didn't even consider the surrounding Marines, pirates, or kingdom forces a threat.

"Neo, do you remember telling me how to 'destroy' a world?"

In an instant, Neo's face below turned ugly.

"I shouldn't have boasted about all those wild ideas in the first place..."

"Too late!"

Imu reached out and grabbed, and in everyone's eyes, she seemed to be a once-powerful Empress, an unparalleled overlord who had dominated the entire world!

Whether in terms of strength, skill, strategy, or intellect, Imu possesses the bearing of a ruthless leader! Through her masterful alliances and maneuvering, she established World Government that dominates the Four Seas, with the entire world submitting to her. She is undisputed the Celestial Dragons, and has ruled the world for eight hundred years! Countless heroes and valiant warriors have fallen and perished.

When the gods are enraged, millions of corpses lie in wait, and blood flows like rivers!

But:

A few seconds later, all was calm, with only a group of powerful figures on high alert exchanging bewildered glances. Where was the ultimate move? An explosion, lightning, a tsunami... but nothing happened? —This wasn't just a matter of much ado about nothing; there wasn't even a sound!

"Huh? What is this...?!"

Luffy, who was puzzled, seemed to sense something and suddenly bent down to pick up a stone and weigh it in his hand.

"Strangeness·····"

Zoro, who was confronting Fujitora, felt a sudden fluctuation in the 'gravity' on his opponent's body. It was not a sign that Fujitora was about to attack, but rather that his power was being interfered with by something.

"I'm such a pain in the ass!!!"

Neo cursed, "It seems Imu has fulfilled all the boasts I made eight hundred years ago! How wonderful! How wonderful!"

Yeah, right!

"How come this is—?"

Plop plop~~

"Everything has become 'lighter',"

A white dove landed on Nami's shoulder, who also sensed something was wrong but couldn't explain why.

White dove: 'Roman No. 1'.

"Simply put, the 'magnetic field' of matter throughout the world is being reversed. This manifests as a disruption in the weight of matter. — Right now, it's only one in ten million... but if it exceeds one in one hundred thousand, the disrupted planetary magnetic field will cause massive natural disasters worldwide. This move..."

"This move is called 'Geomagnetic Reversal'!"

Neo glared at Imu, who was standing in front of him. He had thought that the other party would at most use some ruthless tricks like 'continental shelf tremor', but he didn't expect him to go straight for 'Geomagnetic Reversal'... It's true that Devil Fruit aren't scary, it's the Devil Fruit user are cultured.

Normal celestial Geomagnetic Reversal are quite common, but they are natural phenomena that develop gradually over thousands of years! They have no impact on living organisms. However, if a planet's magnetic field were to be altered in a short period of time, then:

"Don't think that one in ten million is a small proportion. In fact, the moon's gravitational pull on things on the Earth's surface is only one three hundred thousandth of the Earth's gravity. Although the same principle applies to this world... well, it's the same."

White Dove quickly explained to the Straw Hat crew members, who were still unaware of the seriousness of the situation:

"Such a small influence is enough to cause significant tidal phenomena, as well as macroscopic changes such as ocean currents and atmospheric flows."

"Therefore, when everything in the world loses weight by one ten-thousandth due to the influence of the 'Geomagnetic Reversal,' massive disasters such as hurricanes, tsunamis, and earthquakes will inevitably occur."

"If the reduction is reduced by even one ten-thousandth, countless species will become extinct, and all civilizations will be destroyed. If the reduction is reduced by even one thousandth, even for just a moment, it will be a true catastrophe that destroys the planet!"

"And before that..."

"The appetizer is here."

The white dove stretched out its wings and pointed overhead. Everyone instinctively looked up at the sky, including the Charlotte family nearby, and even the other powerful figures on the battlefield, including the Navy's top fighters. Then:

?

The rumbling thunder grew increasingly muffled and deafening. In the sky above, the thunderclouds that Nami had gathered during her previous battle pressed down lower and lower, like a giant piece of skin, slowly drooping down a huge, twisted convex surface towards the ground!

When this distortion reaches its limit, what follows is tearing and shattering—amidst the crazy churning and shaking of the entire sky, a huge meteorite burning with insane crimson flames, making it hard to breathe, reveals its ferocious figure, crushing the sky with overwhelming force and crashing down!

"Fujitora, what are you doing?!"

The direction in which this meteorite fell was right in front of the Navy!

"It is not me, but—"

As Fujitora explained, he drew the sword from his cane and made a virtual slash at the meteorite in the air:

Gravity Blade - Slant!

As Fujitora unleashed his sword strike, the meteorite, carrying immense mass and blazing flames, abruptly veered off course and plunged into the nearby sea. Then:

Boom!!!

The massive tsunami that erupted instantly spread in all directions! Not to mention the town where the nearby floating Bubble Car was located, even the new Marine Headquarters several kilometers away would likely experience a "Ice Age"!

As a cold white light swept across the sea, the massive tsunami that had been ravaging the island instantly transformed into flying Iceburg! Even the huge meteorite was frozen solid, and Aokiji, standing on the pirate ship, exhaled a breath of cold air.

"Hey~~ Don't leave things lying around."

"Mr. Kuzan, do we really have to go..."

Several former captains of the Blackbeard Pirates glanced at the lightning-streaked Red Line and the giant meteorite that had just been 'thrown' down, and they were utterly dumbfounded!

Is this battlefield, rife with natural disasters, truly a place where humans can set foot?

Because of a certain fearless 'Big News' broadcast live, the whole world knows what happened in the Holy Land: it was a world-class battlefield! Compared to that, the Marineford War two years ago was nothing.

"Ah, if you don't want to..."

Amidst the surprised expressions of the group of pirates, Aokiji abruptly changed the subject.

"Then I'll have no choice but to finish you off right here—after all, you know what happens to 'useless' pirates, don't you?"

There are few old men among the pirates for two reasons: firstly, frequent battles, Sea King, and extreme weather prevent them from growing old; secondly, the old men are usually "dealt with".

Some kind-hearted people would dump them on a deserted island or at a port, while others would just use them as a "stepping stone"...

"Ahem, for world peace! For the happiness of the people! — In the name of justice! Brothers, charge!!"

Faced with the choice between a near-death experience and instant freezing, the pirates' decision is easy to understand. Shouting incoherent slogans, they jumped off the ship and began their charge across the ice. Meanwhile, the other factions reacted quickly. "Let's go too!"

In the chaotic town beneath the Red Line, watching the battle unfold on the live stream screen, the Bandaged Vice Commander tore off the bandages from his left hand:

"The road to Shu is difficult, more difficult than ascending to heaven!"

One by one, characters floated from his skin and stuck to the cliffs of the Red Line. The Bad People leaped up, stepping on the characters as if walking on flat ground, speeding towards the Holy Land Mary Geoise, leaving the others dumbfounded.

"Let's go too,"

Ace emerged from the ship's cabin in Wano Country amidst the chaos, putting away his Den Den Mushi, followed closely by the numerous captains of the Whitebeard Pirates.

But the way the Bad People climb Marco couldn't carry all those strong men by himself. Just as Ace was looking at the elevator platform where pirates were being knocked down one after another:

"Ace!!!"

The familiar voice made Ace tremble. He paused for a moment before Guotou with a wry smile.

"Yo, yo—"

Thump,

Faced with the naval admiral who suddenly rushed into Ace, Diamond Jozu, who had just raised his fist, awkwardly changed his fist into a claw and scratched his hair.

"Waaaaah~~ Ace," "I always thought you were dead! Why, why didn't you tell me?"

The "Iceburg the Nail" of the Navy's Team 211 cried his heart out, leaving the Whitebeard Pirates looking at each other in bewilderment.

Ah, this...

Just as Ace was feeling embarrassed, Borgin ran over and interrupted Isca's sobbing.

"Although it's not good to bother you at this time, but—"

"The situation on the boss's end is not optimistic!"

The boss Borgin was referring to Roman, and as soon as he finished speaking, a group of fully armed naval officers rushed over—all Second-generation Marine officers under Roman's command.

"Pirates?"

"Navy?"

"Wait, they're not enemies!" x2

After exchanging a glance, Ace and Borgin first, saying in unison, "You handle your people, and I'll explain to my colleagues."

?

"These naval personnel are Roman's men; they're here to help their boss. For now, they're considered allies..."

"These pirates are our boss's friends. They're here to rescue Straw Hat Luffy. They're not our enemies..."

Soon, with explanations from Ace and Borgin, the two sides managed to reach a rough agreement. However:

"Damn it, Isca is our Team 211's goddess! How could she be... Waaaaah~~"

"Damn it, so what if they're the Four Emperors? Even if they're a little stronger and a little more handsome than me..."

······

"Don't embarrass yourselves!"

Borgin's thunderous voice came from beneath their feet, for the Whitebeard Pirates' captain and the officers of the Navy's Team 211 were now standing on the back of a gigantic creature with a snake's head, a dragon's body, and wings growing from its ribs.

Zoan, Mythical Zoan, Snake-Snake Fruit, Teng Snake form

"With war raging up above, you still have the mind to talk about these things? That so-called Celestial Dragons God is simply absurd. No matter what, I absolutely support the boss! As for other grudges, we'll talk about them after this is over!"

The enormous, warship-like snake head turned to look at Ace, Borgin flicked his forked tongue, which resembled a mast.

"Ace, if you dare to betray Isca's feelings, our Marine Team 211 will never let you off! — Even if you are one of the Four Emperors, I will make sure you suffer!"

"Please rest assured,"

Ace, holding Isca's hand, nodded.

"Anyone who wants to harm Isca will have to step over my dead body first!"

Having died once, Ace's mindset has undergone a complete transformation. A man cannot only care about so-called freedom and adventure; family and responsibility are what Whitebeard wanted to convey.

Lovers, partners, brothers...

I want to protect them all!

P. S.: Yamato identifies as male, so she's just Ace's good friend. The official pairing is Ace and Isca.
