CP0's Report
The moment the Den Den Mushi connected, he suppressed his hoarse, trembling voice and, in the most urgent and solemn tone, transmitted this world-altering emergency intelligence to the Holy Land Mary Geoise:
"Urgent top-secret report! Lord Five Elders! The battlefield at Sabaody is completely out of control! Madara Uchiha's Complete Body Susanoo full power! Vice Monkey D. Vice Admiral Garp is fighting back with all his might!"
Two celestial-level forces clashed, causing widespread collapse and destruction of the archipelago! Many of our CP observation personnel perished in the line of duty! Very few survivors remain!
The destructive power of this standoff has completely exceeded the current understanding of naval warfare capabilities! It could annihilate the entire Sabaody Archipelago at any moment! The situation is completely out of control!
On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, the Holy Land Mary Geoise fell into a deathly silence. The previously composed aura of the Five Elders froze, and an extremely heavy sense of oppression quietly enveloped the entire core of power.
At this moment, at the very core of the storm, at the center of the clash of forces.
The 700-meter-tall, Complete Susanoo tall and majestic, its sky-blue Chakra flowing around it. The heavy Crow Tengu Armor gleamed, every inch of which carried the ultimate eye power and chakra of Madara Uchiha Chakra.
Madara Uchiha sat at the very core of Susanoo's skull, his Mangekyō Sharingan spinning rapidly, its crimson light fixed on Garp, whose white hair was fluttering in the sky above.
His unchanging indifference finally erupted into a monstrous wave at this moment, a long-lost, scalding, and extreme fighting spirit surging wildly through his limbs and bones, sweeping across his entire body.
Since arriving at this sea, he has made several moves and clashed with many others, but he has never truly had his fill.
Kaido of the Beasts, hailed by the world as the Strongest Creature on land, sea, and air, possesses unparalleled physique, overwhelming dragon might, unmatched endurance, and overwhelming combat power, truly deserving to be considered one of the top powerhouses on this sea.
The Three Admirals of the Marine Headquarters each possess top-tier Devil Fruit and control ultimate elemental power. They guard the order of the Four Blues and deter all directions of the ocean. Their strength should not be underestimated.
But in Madara's eyes, they were merely "not bad."
They were powerful, but they couldn't instill a real sense of oppression in him; they were fierce, but they couldn't sway his mind or ignite his fighting spirit.
The reason he chose to spare Kaido after overwhelming him and let him go was not because he was powerless to kill him, but because he clearly sensed the endless potential hidden within Kaido.
He hoped that this Strongest Creature would break through its limits and reach a higher realm in the future, perhaps one day, it would be qualified to force him to go all out and ignite his fighting spirit.
But only today has he truly encountered an opponent in this unfamiliar world who can rival his nemesis.
The Monkey D. Garp before me was an old man with white hair, decades older than me.
Logically speaking, everyone's physique, vitality, strength, and explosive power will decline and fall with the passage of time, and their peak combat power will no longer exist.
But this old man defied all common sense!
Within his aged body lies a terrifying power capable of shattering heaven and earth and crushing mountains and seas. The oppressive and intimidating force brought by his extremely refined Conqueror's Haki, his pure and domineering physical strength, and his fearless and supreme spirit is in no way inferior to that of his Hashirama Senju, with whom he fought for his entire life and was evenly matched!
Ban silently compared the two in his heart, his thoughts racing.
If it weren't for Uchiha Natsu bringing him into this sea, if it weren't for the fact that he relied on the world's uniquely powerful physique, mastered the world's unique Haki system, and the extreme amplification from the Gene Serum that allowed his strength to leapfrog and explode, he would have been a much stronger man.
If I were to face Garp at his current full power back when he had just quelled the chaos and established Konoha, the outcome would be unpredictable, and he would most likely be at a disadvantage!
An old man who should have been declining in combat power and full of vigor suddenly unleashed terrifying combat power comparable to the peak Ninja World god.
Extreme excitement, extreme exhilaration, and extreme anticipation completely filled Ban's chest.
This is the kind of opponent he should go all out against! This is the kind of strong opponent he should be able to set aside all his contempt for and fight to the death with all his might!
There was no dialogue, no sarcasm, no unnecessary probing.
Above the sky, Garp stood suspended in mid-air, his white hair dancing wildly and his clothes fluttering. A crimson Conqueror's Haki rolled around him, seemingly overturning heaven and earth, and his iron fist, covered in top-level Armament Haki, remained still and unleashed.
His muscles were stretched to their limit, every inch of his strength was unleashed without reservation, his eyes were fixed on the Asura God's body below, his mind was extremely tense, and he dared not relax for a moment.
On the earth, Madara Uchiha focused his mind, fully activating his Mangekyo Sharingan, and continuously channeling endless Chakra into his Complete Body Susanoo.
The azure Chakra surged with immense pressure, its twin swords poised for battle, its armor frosted with ice. Completely abandoning all mockery and disdain, it confronted the legendary iron fist of the ocean head-on with its most powerful, rigorous, and all-out effort.
One god, one Buddha; one Asura, one righteous; one overlooking eternity, the other guarding the Four Blues.
Two ultimate forces, transcending eras and dimensions, stand in a stalemate across the shattered world.
Wild winds roared, tsunamis surged into the sky, archipelagos collapsed, and the earth trembled. The entire pattern of the great shipping route quietly ushered in the prelude to overturning in this silent and ultimate confrontation.
Mary Geoise, the Room of Authority, this supreme palace standing atop the Red Line at an altitude of ten thousand meters, surpassing all other institutions of power in the world, is perpetually shrouded in an unchanging solemnity and deathly silence.
The thick obsidian floor tiles were as smooth as mirrors, reflecting the ancient gilded lamps hanging from the dome. The dim light from the sky made the five supreme figures standing here appear even more majestic and cold.
Since the sea opened up order, countless decrees that have shaken the Four Blues order have been issued from this place, controlling the life, death, honor, and disgrace of hundreds of millions of people, and holding the rules and laws of the entire world.
At this moment, however, this eternally silent core of power was completely shrouded in an indescribable heavy oppression.
Jegalsia Saint Saturn, Shepard X Peter, Zambaron V Saint Nusjuro, Topman Saint Topman Warcury, and Saint Mars —the five supreme war gods who govern the five major domains of the World Government —stood side by side in the center of the hall.
The faces that once held the fate of the people in their hands and were usually calm and indifferent were now all gloomy and ugly, their brows filled with solemnity and fear, and the composure and arrogance that once looked down on the world were gone.
Even though this place is located at the peak of the Red Line, separated from the Grand Line below by sheer cliffs and vast seas of clouds, everyone can still clearly and vividly sense the terrifying energy fluctuations that are constantly sweeping in from the direction of the Sabaody Archipelago.
Why is it that my traffic is decreasing even though I'm writing 8,000 words every day? Guys, can you help me share this? I can't afford to spend 20 yuan a day anymore!
