On the cracked earth, this war that had gathered the world's greatest fighting forces erupted in an instant as Akainu made his move.
Sakazuki charged forward first, magma surging forth.
Aokiji, following close behind, stood at a distance as his freezing shockwave spread across the ground toward Whitebeard at tremendous speed.
Dawn stomped his foot, and a crimson halo enveloped everyone. Sengoku transformed into the enormous War Buddha and threw down a punch as well.
"Gurarararara, you really think highly of me!" Whitebeard laughed loudly. At the same time, the arm gripping his right fist swelled by a full circle, veins bulging like little snakes beneath his skin, before he violently punched forward!
Crack, crack, crack!!
The ice shards and magma shattered instantly, while Sengoku's enormous fist was likewise stopped, unable to advance even an inch.
"You let your guard down, Whitebeard~" Kizaru's figure appeared behind Whitebeard at some unknown point. A laser shot from his hand and instantly pierced through Whitebeard's chest!
Whitebeard staggered, and Murakumogiri came crashing down, only to strike a pitch-black shield and stop short!
Rashomon!
With Whitebeard's attack blocked by Dawn, his opening was laid bare. Frost gathered around Aokiji's arm as an ice bird shot forth, while Sengoku's palm unleashed a surging shockwave toward Whitebeard as well!
Bang!
It was still that familiar punch. Whitebeard seemed to have developed his power to the point of returning to simplicity. Every casual movement carried the might of a natural disaster, and the force of vibration engulfed both men.
"Die, Whitebeard!" Akainu had somehow circled behind him, and Demon Dog blasted toward Whitebeard's chest at extreme speed.
This time, Whitebeard had no time to block it!
The giant magma fist instantly pierced Whitebeard's chest. Scalding magma erupted within his torso, burning his internal organs.
Yasakani no Magatama!
