Shiki vs. Garp!
"Mamamama----"
"Mom, I can vouch for you! Kaido really did pee and get muddy back then!"
In the heart of the Totto Land Kingdom, inside the castle on Whole Cake Island, 'BIG MOOM' Charlotte Linlin sat on a massive throne, clutching her growing belly and laughing uncontrollably.
The children, including Perospero, who remained in the kingdom to manage affairs, also couldn't help but smile.
Kaido is, after all, Admiral in the Air Force, and can be considered a high-ranking and powerful figure.
On the other side.
On Edward Peach Blossom Island, where the Whitebeard Kingdom was established only a few years ago, Newgate was amused by Shiki's words and burst into a hearty laugh.
He then addressed his laughing 'sons', saying, "That's right, Kaido really liked playing with mud back then. As for whether he peed on it, we don't know!"
Oh~~~
Thatch, Izo, and the others echoed in unison, making the atmosphere in the hall very humorous and cheerful.
However, there seemed to be a few familiar figures hidden among the crowd.
Denjiro, Kawamatsu, Ashura Doji, and others who disappeared on Wano Island have somehow secretly joined the Whitebeard Kingdom.
It's not surprising, actually.
Now, only 'Whitebeard' can offer them some protection.
But this is on the premise that they completely let go of their obsessions and hatred, and honestly and lawfully behave themselves.
The World Government was too lazy to offend the Whitebeard Kingdom for the sake of these 'Wano Country remnants'.
Amidst laughter and cheers.
Sitting on his throne, Edward 'Newgate thoughts drifted to the' Hachinosu's that had occupied a long place in his life, and he thought to himself.
"I heard that place is still guarded."
At the same time.
Within the latter half of the Grand Line.
On a desolate island with a skull-shaped mountain rising in the center, surrounded by layers of stone buildings and houses, somewhere near the coast.
Suddenly, a relatively new-looking stone tablet appeared.
Several bold Chinese characters, rendered in a highly calligraphic style, are inscribed on the surface, facing the sea and the waves.
'The place where Kaido peed and smeared mud'
"Nonsense!!!"
A Wrath roar erupted from Zou 'Kaido back, startling everyone inside and outside the base. Even Hozumi (the female protagonist of the Kabane World), who was watching the live stream at home, looked out the window in surprise.
What's going on?
Speaking of which, she is already seventeen years old. Her height and figure are no longer as childish as they used to be, and she has grown a head of long, straight, jet-black hair.
Perhaps because she has been away from combat for the past few years, her temperament has gradually changed towards that of Ayame Yomogawa.
And also...
She was pregnant, and the child was naturally Ikoma, so she possessed a gentler, maternal quality.
Inside the Admiral's office.
"Shiki!"
"I'm not done with you yet!!"
Kaido was Wrath to the extreme, and his aura was accompanied by streaks of purple electricity.
He never expected that Shiki would say such slanderous things about him in front of the world during a live broadcast. What angered him most was that he was currently unable to explain or refute it to the outside world.
"."
Sitting on the sofa to the side, King watched speechlessly as Kaido, enraged, smashed the desk in front of him with a single blow.
At the same time, I couldn't help but imagine the scene of this guy peeing and playing in the mud back then, and suddenly, an uncontrollable smile welled up from my heart.
This made him quickly stand up to leave, but unexpectedly, Kaido's brother asked menacingly behind him, "Where are you going?"
"Ahem, I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, King quickly pushed open the door and went out, but Kaido inside seemed to hear faint laughter coming from outside.
[Bang----]
"Arbel, before we encounter a powerful enemy from Otherworld, we must increase our strength as much as possible!"
"Come!"
"Let's have an exhilarating special training session!"
Kaido's roar transformed into a surging sonic wave, instantly shattering the poor door and causing the Air Force officers and soldiers throughout the building to tremble in fear.
Meanwhile, Jin had already transformed into a giant Pterosaur burning in flames and soared into the sky.
On the deserted island chosen for the 'Paramount War' in the first half of the Grand Line.
As Shiki's Black Blade, Coating in red lightning, clashed with Garp's black fist, its surface gleaming with a red glow.
The air seemed to have been bombarded by a nuclear weapon, unleashing a fierce gust of wind and a bright ray of light.
The ground beneath their feet.
First, it pressed down, then cracked open with thick, long, and twisted fissures, eventually forming wave-like waves of earth that swept out in all directions.
At the same time.
A raging storm rapidly formed around them, creating a visible Tatsumaki layer that forced nearby Flying Warship and news ships to hastily retreat under the threat of the chaotic airflow.
Just the next second.
Two figures emerged from the newly formed storm, one on the left and one on the right, each accompanied by a Sound Explosion boom that created a white cone-shaped air shield.
This scene left many viewers in front of their virtual screens speechless.
"Here we go!"
Zephyr, Zephyr, Air Force, Sakazuki, Bullet, and other military leaders, though located in various places, are also paying attention to this Sengoku.
They all stood with their arms crossed or a lit cigar in their mouths, silently watching the ongoing battle.
They were looking forward to it.
Because no one can say for sure whether Garp or Shiki will win this 'Paramount War', it would be clearer if one of them were replaced by Newgate.
"Leo's Might - Earth Sweep!"
As the force of the collision dissipated, Shiki quickly floated into the air, letting out a loud shout while raising his right hand and clenching his fist.
The next moment.
With a rumbling sound, half of the island's ground and the mountain below instantly transformed into a towering tsunami of earth and rocks, which then quickly formed eight towering "earth Leo" the size of mountain peaks.
"Roar!"
"Roar!!"
Faced with the roar and attack of these exaggeratedly large 'earth Leo '.
Garp stomped his foot on the soft ground, sending a cloud of dust flying behind him, effortlessly surpassing the speed of sound with extreme power.
"Pfft, hahaha!"
"You're at it again, pulling these circus-style tricks. You know, I've always thought they're really boring."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he casually threw a punch that tore through the surging air, creating a tangible gust of wind that instantly blasted the 'earth Leo's apart.
The next second.
Garp vanished from the spot, and when he reappeared, the remaining seven 'earth Leo's behind him had exploded into clumps of mud and rubble.
A moment later, a roaring sound and Tornado came from behind, making his Coat of Justice flutter loudly.
"Hmph~"
Shiki, hovering in the air, arrogantly raised his chin and sneered, "It's just a little prelude to build up the atmosphere for the battle, and you're already taking it seriously?"
After saying that, the 'Oto' on his right hand transformed into a blade of light and slashed vertically.
"Chop Wave!"
A golden arc, seemingly reaching to the heavens and the earth, burst forth on the island.
In an instant, a massive Flying Slash rapidly formed in the air, possessing a terrifying momentum that seemed poised to split the entire island in two.
"Pfft, hahahaha----"
Seeing the golden blade light descending upon him, Garp burst into an extremely joyful laugh.
"That's more like it! Devil Fruit abilities and all that can be thrown aside for me!"
"Shiki!"
