"Hey, hey!"
"The Marine Hero is going to—"
"This is getting way out of hand!"
Nearly every eye, both at the scene and around the world, was fixed on Garp.
Garp stood with his head lowered, both fists clenched, his expression hidden from view.
Across from him, magma dripped from Sakazuki's body. She made no effort to hide her bone-chilling killing intent.
"Garp, you've betrayed the Marines and betrayed justice!"
"You traitor! You deserve to die!"
Sakazuki didn't give Garp a chance to speak. This was exactly what she wanted.
Without another word, she launched her attack.
"Great Eruption!"
Magma covered the area for several thousand meters. With a roar, Sakazuki swung a fist, setting the entire field of lava into a frenzy. A colossal fist of magma surged toward Garp, blotting out the sky.
She was going for the kill.
"Sakazuki!"
Sengoku, Zephyr, and Tsuru watched from a great distance, their expressions changing in alarm once more.
What was Sakazuki trying to do?
Wasn't she even going to let them talk?
Was she getting carried away?
But none of that mattered now. Garp had made a grave mistake. Once this war was over, he would likely be stripped of his Marine status and might even be imprisoned.
Unless he made amends through a great service.
For example, capturing Monkey D. Dragon or a large number of other Revolutionary Army officers. Otherwise—
BOOM!!!
Facing Sakazuki's murderous attack, steam billowed from Garp's body as Armament Haki covered him from head to toe. His muscles swelled as he clenched his fist and met the mountain-sized blow head-on.
In an instant,
a violent shockwave radiated outward. Garp's feet dug into the ground as he was forced backward.
"Get out of here!"
Garp's face reddened as he held back the fist of molten rock.
