"Shiki, you're asking for a death wish!"
The entire sky, crackling with lightning and thunder, turned red. A meteor shower tore through the air with a deafening roar, raining down in a vast, fiery torrent. New Marineford, already shattered, began to split apart and collapse.
Countless Revolutionary Army fighters and marines were caught in the devastation.
There was no doubt about it.
The Golden Lion's indiscriminate attack had enraged everyone.
He was far too brazen!
People had guessed that the Golden Lion would either take Khel away, attack the Revolutionary Army, or go after the Navy. No one had expected him to be so contemptuous of everyone that he would attack both the Revolutionary Army and the Navy without distinction.
The man was absolutely insane!
His domineering presence, sweeping and unmatched, was on full display before the world.
"Gyahahaha!"
"Revolutionary Army! Navy! Entertain me!"
"Let's make this war even crazier!"
High above,
amid the endless meteor shower, the Golden Lion spread his arms as if embracing the world. His wild, lion-like mane whipped in the wind, while his Conqueror's Haki surged in wave after wave like a tsunami.
Then he raised his right hand and pressed down once more.
Laughing wildly, as if all living things were no more than ants, he sent the shadow of another island splitting through the boundless thunderclouds, crashing down with unstoppable force.
"Golden Lion."
"Shiki!"
"That lunatic!"
"What a stubborn madman."
Sengoku, the Army Admiral, Dragon, the four admirals, and the Shichibukai—
everyone at the scene, and everyone watching the live broadcast around the world, had the same word flash through their minds: lunatic.
He meant to bury both the Revolutionary Army and the Navy.
"Golden Lion Shiki."
The Flat Hat Five Elder, who had been seated among the admirals, finally stopped standing by.
