After some simple, brutal research and observation, Zhu Mang roughly figured out that the Five Elders' so-called "immortality" actually had an upper limit.

When his ki output reached roughly twice that of his previous clash with Whitebeard, the Five Elders' bodies completely lost all activity and could no longer regenerate.

So, their "immortal bodies" were probably merely a kind of "pseudo-immortal body" achieved under certain conditions, and they had limits.

For this, he had to thank the two Five Elders for their selfless contribution.

They had dedicated their lives to this great cause.

Having obtained such experimental results, Zhu Mang was undoubtedly a little disappointed.

But on second thought...

The upper limit of the One Piece World had never been that high to begin with.

When he first arrived, he had guessed that admirals and Four Emperors possessed combat power in the two- to three-hundred range. But based on his current estimates, admirals and Four Emperors likely only had combat power around 120 to 150. It mainly varied according to each person's physique, Devil Fruit, Haki development, age, current condition, and so on.

But in his opinion, even Whitebeard in his youth, with the awakened abilities of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit, would at most have reached around 170 to 180. He would not have reached 200.

After growing old, he could not even maintain 120 in his normal state.

Only in a final burst of life could he temporarily wield combat power of 150 or a little higher.

By that calculation, to completely break through this [Pseudo-Immortal Body] and kill the Five Elders, one would need destructive power equivalent to at least 300 combat power.

That was basically impossible to achieve in the One Piece World.

Of course, even so, they were not completely invincible.

Their absurd recovery ability was actually somewhat similar to Buggy the Clown's Chop-Chop Fruit.

Think about how Buggy had been defeated when he first appeared.

Just smash them into pieces, scatter the chunks in every direction, or use a meat grinder to completely churn their bodies into pulp.

Even if they could recover, it would take them a very, very long time.

Having figured out what he wanted, Zhu Mang called over Doflamingo. Amid Doflamingo's somewhat speechless expression, he had him use the String-String Fruit to weave a huge sack and pack up the remains of the three Five Elders, who should still have been alive.

Once matters here were settled, he planned to find Vegapunk and have him study them properly, to see whether this ability could be transferred onto him.

Though this ability had its limits, it was still quite practical for Zhu Mang.

No matter what, it was a technique that allowed flesh and blood to regenerate rapidly.

Not only could it greatly increase his endurance in future battles, but it could also allow him to make use of the passive abilities within the Saiyan bloodline.

Doflamingo had also made up his mind to follow his new boss all the way to the bitter end.

Faced with such an outrageous request, he not only packed them up tightly and securely, but thoughtfully divided them into three smaller sacks before placing them all inside one large sack.

Then he personally carried it in his hand.

A perfectly good Heavenly Yaksha had been turned into a bag-carrying lackey.

As for this, Doflamingo stated that the thing he regretted most in his life was not bringing a few underlings with him when he came to participate in the Summit War.

As for Marineford at this moment...

Of the three battlefields, one had already disappeared, leaving only two.

The battle that had ended was the one in Marineford Plaza. The Marines who had been bewitched by the Five Elders into rebelling had originally only been led by a few overly confident vice admirals and rear admirals.

When they saw the Five Elders get instantly killed, and even watched Zhu Mang smash them into minced meat and toy with it on the ground...

Every one of them realized the severity of the situation.

Some fled, while others immediately fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

The battle became overwhelmingly one-sided in an extremely short time and finally came to a complete end.

Of the other two battlefields, the one involving the pirates was also drawing to a close.

The dozen or so division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates had always been pirates who, under the influence of their father Whitebeard, were not particularly fond of plundering.

Or rather, that had always been the nature of the Whitebeard Pirates as a group.

They had merely been given tragic pasts by this tragic world. After becoming homeless, they were taken in by an old man, and eventually formed such a large family.

The title of "pirate" had only been forced upon them. After all, Whitebeard had once been a member of the Rocks Pirates and had participated in the battle at God Valley. He had long become a thorn in the World Government's side.

Even a recruitment policy like the Shichibukai would never consider someone like him.

Those who ultimately remained in the Whitebeard Pirates were either people who shared Whitebeard's ideals, or those with ulterior motives like Blackbeard.

On top of that, every one of those division commanders was exceptionally powerful, at least on the level of a Marine vice admiral.

Besides, among the other pirates, not every one of them was unwilling to accept such terms.

In this twisted world, a major reason they had chosen to become pirates in the first place was their dissatisfaction with the World Government.

And now, they were to merge into the Marines, with the ultimate goal of overthrowing the World Government that had oppressed them!

What was there to hesitate about?

After seeing the Marines and the World Government start fighting here, some pirates even charged over alone to help the Marines fight the World Government.

Thus, in some corners, CP agents in suits could be seen being besieged by Marines in naval uniforms and pirates dressed in all manner of mismatched clothes.

Lastly, there was the side of the Marines and the World Government.

Their battle was likewise nearing its end.

Sengoku knew full well that these CP agents were brainwashed, mindless supporters of the World Government, and were practically impossible to reform.

Moreover, the higher their rank, the more deeply they had been brainwashed.

Therefore, under Sengoku's orders, not a single Marine held back.

Without any top-tier fighters to anchor them, the CP agents were driven back again and again, nearly cornered into a single spot.

At present, the only fiercely contested battlefields were Akainu versus Shamrock, Garp versus Gringo, and Sengoku versus Kong.

"These guys aren't dead yet?" Zhu Mang spotted Rob Lucci, Kaku, and several other former CP9 agents fighting side by side in a corner.

However, they did not seem to be participating in the battle. Instead, they appeared to be preparing to flee.

"Lucci, the World Government is finished. We need to run!" Kaku tugged anxiously at Rob Lucci's clothes.

"Yeah, Brother Lucci. We failed our mission before, and they even sent people after us. If we hadn't been hunted with nowhere left to hide, we never would have gone back. Afterward, they wanted to use the Hypnosis Fruit to brainwash us and turn us completely into puppets of the Celestial Dragons! I... I don't want to live like that for the rest of my life! Let's escape! The World Government is finished! No one will hunt us down anymore!" Kalifa said urgently.

"What? Brainwashed with the Hypnosis Fruit?" Jabra stared at Kalifa in shock. "Kalifa, is that true?"

"Yes... My father told me..." Kalifa clutched her chest in anguish.
