The Whole Crew Has Conqueror's Haki-Garp Strikes First!
"Oh no, something terrible is about to happen!"
Looking down at the enormous Demon Silhouette appearing among the Flower Chamber, Worcester and Saturn spoke almost simultaneously, and then both of them flashed out.
Immediately afterwards, Nusjuro did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and followed the two of them out of the Chamber of Power.
Although Zephyr, who was enjoying senbei and resting with his eyes closed, did not immediately follow, his expression was unusually solemn.
"What happens?"
Sakazuki glanced at Sengoku and Zephyr, then asked blankly, "Isn't that Demon Silhouette Imu's power? What are they panicking about?"
"Imu has amnesia!"
Sengoku casually put the senbei back into the box, stood up, and said with a serious expression, "The Gunzi Palace came to see us before, saying that Imu might have lost her memories related to Akira! If she really has forgotten Akira, we will face the dilemma of choosing sides again!"
"The dilemma of choosing a side?" Sakazuki's brow furrowed instantly, and he said in a deep voice, "Sengoku, I don't want to hear you say such things again!"
"Even if Imu hadn't lost her memories related to Lord Akira, let alone lost them, we would still pledge our loyalty to Lord Akira!"
"Let's go see what's going on!"
After saying that, Sakazuki ignored Sengoku's reaction and simply turned and left.
at the same time.
Inside the Knights of God's headquarters, Shamrock, Gringo, and Doflamingo vanished almost simultaneously.
When they reappeared, they were already outside the gate of the garden among the Flower Chamber.
"Hahaha, what an unexpected turn of events!"
Following behind the Gringo father and son, Doflamingo strode ruthlessly, shoving aside Shamrock who stood in his way. He walked straight to the garden gate, staring at the enormous Demon Silhouette in the garden, and grinned wickedly, "I don't know what kind of monster this is, but you'd better not make any rash moves, or I won't hesitate to kill you both!"
Having said that, Doflamingo took the lead and stepped into the gate of the Flower Chamber.
"Father?" Shamrock didn't follow, but turned to look at Gringo was standing beside him and showed no intention of entering the Flower Chamber either. "What's going on? Why are Lord Im and Lord Akira at odds?"
"This is terrible!" Gringo narrowed his eyes, his expression grave. "If nothing unexpected happens, Lord Im has likely lost his memories related to Akira."
Upon hearing this, Shamrock blinked blankly for a moment, then looked up in horror at the huge Demon Silhouette among the Flower Chamber, exclaiming, "Wouldn't she mistake Akira for an intruder?"
As soon as Shamrock finished speaking, several figures carrying a terrifying aura approached from afar and appeared in front of Shamrock and Gringo in an instant. They were Saturn, Worcester, and Nusjuro!
What are you all still standing here for?
Saturn didn't stop, reminding the Gringo father and son as he rushed into the Flower Chamber and knelt down on one knee facing Imu.
"Saturn, Worcester, Nusjuro! You've come at the perfect time!"
Before the three Five Elders could speak, Imu fixed his gaze on Akira opposite him and said in an icy voice, "Take this man down immediately!"
"Yes!"
Saturn, Worcester, and Nusjuro dared not disobey Imu's orders and immediately released their respective abilities. With billowing flames rising and terrifying shockwaves surging, Saturn, Worcester, and Nusjuro successively completed their transformations.
In an instant, a chilling atmosphere filled the Flower Chamber, turning the once fragrant garden into a sinister hell.
Before the three could make a move, several figures swept across the outer wall of the Flower Chamber at an astonishing speed and landed behind Akira at the same time. Sakazuki, who had just become a candidate for the Five Elders, and Gion, who had been promoted to Marshal of the Headquarters.
Immediately afterward, Sengoku and Zephyr rushed in from outside the garden gate.
"Hahaha, isn't it my turn to make my appearance now!"
As Sengoku and Zephyr slipped into the Flower Chamber, a familiar burst of laughter echoed behind them.
The next second, Garp burst into the Flower Chamber, his gaze locking onto Imu, who stood behind him with a giant Demon Silhouette. "So, you were the scourge that possessed Saturn during the God Valley Incident, right? Imu!"
Before he finished speaking, Garp clenched his Iron Fist and leaped high into the air, directly over Saturn, Worcester, and Nusjuro, and slammed it down cleanly on Imu's head.
"Holy crap--"
Having just rushed into the Flower Chamber, Sengoku, who hadn't even had time to assess the situation, saw Garp lunge at Imu's head without warning and immediately shouted anxiously, "Garp, don't be impulsive!"
It's you!
Almost simultaneously, Imu also recalled the scene from her memory of being punched in the head by Garp when she possessed Saturn. The moment the sound rang out, the Demon Silhouette behind her did not pause at all, raising its demonic claws and slamming them down hard on Garp.
At the same time, its arrow-shaped tail, which had been hovering behind it, shot out and headed straight for Garp's heart!
Because of the Demon Silhouette's attack, Imu ignored Garp's attack and shouted at the three transformed Saturn and his companions, "The enemies have already entered the Flower Chamber, why aren't you making a move? Quickly take them down!"
"Them?"
Sakazuki acted first, unleashing a deafening burst of Conqueror's Haki along with the Magma-Magma Fruit's power.
Immediately afterwards, Gion also drew her sword, and the Conqueror's Haki wrapped around the blade surged forth, somewhat reminiscent of Akira drawing his sword on the roof of the Marine Headquarters Building. Before the blade was fully drawn, the black and red Conqueror's Haki poured out like a torrent.
at the same time.
"Hehehehe, how could I miss out on such a scene!"
Doflamingo, who entered the Flower Chamber before Gringo and his son, also decisively released his Conqueror's Haki amidst an evil laugh. Together with the Conqueror's Haki released by Sakazuki and Gion, they formed a visible torrent of Haki that swept towards Saturn, Worcester, and Nusjuro, who had transformed, like a tidal wave.
Gringo and Shamrock were completely dumbfounded when Sakazuki, Gion, and Doflamingo simultaneously unleashed their Conqueror's Haki. It was as if they were all going all out before the war even started!
Just as Gringo and his son Shamrock were unsure whether to intervene, Akira suddenly raised his foot and then lightly stomped it. Terrifying Conqueror's Haki condensed into a terrifying current of energy, instantly enveloping the Demon Silhouette that had blocked Garp.
Buzz!
Buzz!
Buzz buzz buzz!
Several low-frequency vibrations rippled out, and unparalleled Conqueror's Haki formed a cage of Haki, firmly suppressing the Demon Silhouette.
Seizing the opportunity, Garp leaped up again and delivered a clean and decisive punch to the head of the Demon Silhouette.
boom--
With a loud bang, half of the giant silhouette's head was smashed.
Immediately afterwards, a piercing scream rang out from the silhouette, echoing for a long time in the air above the Holy Land.
"Ugh."
As the Demon Silhouette screamed, Imu also let out a scream, then covered his head with his hands and knelt down!
"Gunko!"
As Imu knelt down, he uttered words that left everyone present completely baffled, as if he were struggling against something, his tone urgent and pained:
"Quickly call Akira, we need him!"
