"Although... a father is completely superfluous in an adventure, if someone tries to harm his son, it's not something that can be resolved by simply saying 'sorry'."
William and Ace had initially thought they were doomed—thankfully, William stopped, and Ace managed to save his hand.
The power of the Golden Great Buddha did not reach the two of them. When they came to their senses, a figure that was much smaller than the Buddha Form, yet very heavy, appeared in front of them, blocking the Buddha Form's fist.
"It's you?"
"Dad?"
"Let's go," Sig said succinctly.
William looked at Ace's hands and thought that if his father stepped in to stop him, they might be able to save him a little more. So he simply picked Ace up and ran.
"You bastard... Siegfried! So that's why..." Sengoku finally realized that the brat was Siegfried's son.
"Don't even think about escaping!" Sengoku still wanted to intervene and stop William.
But as he raised his other fist, Sig also lowered his fist to his waist, and at the same time... one of his arms turned golden!
Sengoku's pupils contracted as he instinctively sensed a threat and realized that Sig was not an opponent to be ignored, so he shifted his focus back to him.
"Golden-topped Buddha Lamp!"
"Fish-Man Karate: The Sea King's Sigh!"
A powerful light emanated from Sengoku's palm as he swung it down at Sig. Sieg, in turn, met the attack with a perfectly balanced punch, without resorting to any tricks.
And...
As Sig threw his punch, an even more dazzling golden light flashed from his arm!
The powerful impact spread instantly from the execution rack, and the entire island's navy and pirates felt it, their clothes fluttering and some even raising their hands to shield their eyes.
This is because the point where the two attacked and collided was higher than the surrounding area, so the impact below was relatively small—the ice walls on both sides had already shown cracks under the impact.
As for William, who had just escaped, he felt as if he had been hit from behind by a truck, and he rolled forward 720 degrees!
Therefore...
As both sides stared in disbelief at the attack, Whitey Bay's roar echoed across the square, "Hey! Can't you be a little more careful? Aren't you your own son?"
However, when the result of this attack was revealed, Whitey Bay turned pale.
On the Execution Platform...
Sig's entire arm had vanished, as if it had evaporated.
At the same time, what is even more striking is that the forearm of the Golden Great Buddha, who was the incarnation of the Sengoku, which was exchanging blows with Sig, has also disappeared, and the broken part of the elbow is charred and no longer shows any gold!
Sengoku's Devil Fruit is a Zoan-type, not a Paramecia-type or a Logia-type...
In other words...
The giant golden Buddha statue is his true form in disguise; he really did lose an arm!
And because of its size, his severed arm was particularly conspicuous, which dealt a huge blow to the morale of the navy—in their eyes, one of the navy's two invincible powers... had lost half an arm in a single encounter?
Thankfully, Sig also broke...
Um???
Just then, the charred wound on Sig's shoulder began to writhe violently, and a new arm grew out in a moment!
But the newly grown arm suddenly yanked out a few times, its fingers twisting erratically as if trying to break itself, Sig could only hold it with his other hand.
"He's really troublesome, old man." Sig looked at Sengoku's severed arm and gave a cruel smile.
That's right, Sig's move...
It was precisely through the super-impact of the Golden Fission Reaction achieved this!
It's like a miniature version of "Pluton's Shot"—the reason his arms are golden is because Sig ate gold bars beforehand.
A month ago, Sig found Wapol, prematurely ended his Alloy Legend, and stole the power of the Munch-Munch Fruit, replacing the somewhat useless Shield-Shield Fruit he had previously used while Grazing.
Then, using the power of the "Munch-Munch Fruit," he perfectly swallowed the gold bar. Because Sig had studied Tesoro's body and was familiar with the Golden Fruit, after swallowing the gold bar, he perfectly controlled the "gold" and fused it with his arm. In essence, he used the power of the Munch-Munch Fruit to swallow and fuse the gold, thus aiding him in using the power of the Golden Fruit!
Then, by inducing the gold, which was already part of his body, a fission reaction occurred, resulting in immense power... and a berserk state!
It was just a fistfight... Generally speaking, if the strength of both sides is similar, neither should suffer any serious injuries, but Sig beat him with the momentum of "mutual destruction".
However, Sig was naturally prepared. He could restore his arm, but because Sengoku's punch was imbued with Conqueror's Haki, Sig's New Life "Lineage Factor" was also fluctuating. Therefore, the regenerated arm could not be used as the original one immediately, and it was even somewhat disobedient.
At the same time, a Sig will locked onto him, and Sig quickly transformed into lightning and left the spot!
The next instant, Garp, who had thrown a punch that missed its mark, landed where Sig, and looked solemnly at his old comrade-in-arms. "Sengoku..."
Sengoku didn't immediately respond to Garp's concern, but instead shouted, "What... what are you all standing there for? Have you forgotten why you're standing here today? It's just a mere arm; anyone could die here today. However... the Pirate Era must, and certainly will, come to an end!"
Sengoku continued to boost morale, not wanting his injuries to affect him.
Akainu, who was the first to come to his senses, had already used "Dog Biting Red Lotus" to chase after William was carrying Ace and fleeing.
Akainu's arm turned to lava, then transformed into a dog's head, which stretched out and lunged at William.
But at that moment, Hancock was the first to turn against them. She suddenly swung her sword and kicked the middle of Akainu's outstretched "arm," instantly petrifying the magma and sending it flying.
Hancock also somewhat surprised—it didn't break the kick?
The outstretched "arm" was attacked in the middle, and the dog's head in front, which seemed to be choosing to devour someone, also seemed to "whimper," its momentum greatly affected and its momentum faltered.
However, under Akainu's control, he continued to rapidly approach the fleeing William's back...
Just then, two figures descended from the sky, one a bolt of lightning, the other a golden streak of light—anyone who didn't know better would have thought it was Sig and Sengoku reuniting.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that he is far less prominent and younger than Sig and Sengoku!
A figure enveloped in lightning struck the Lava Hound's head with a single blow. The "Dog Biting Red Lotus," already weakened by Hancock's midsection kick, was thrown off balance by the lightning strike, slowing it down and causing it to lose its power.
Meanwhile, in the golden carriage bathed in golden light, the people inside suddenly grabbed William and Ace and threw them onto the carriage...
