Sengoku's giant golden palm descended with crushing force as he stood in his Buddha Form.
The blazing sphere of light expanded in midair, squeezing the air until it shrieked.
The overwhelming pressure stopped the sea breeze dead, and dazzling golden light flooded the entire Execution Platform area.
"Sengoku the Buddha is making his move himself!"
"Fall back! That's the Fleet Admiral's full-power shock wave!"

"Vice Admiral Garp, your communications Den Den Mushi is still on."
Zhao Hai inwardly rolled his eyes. This Marine hero's knack for antics truly never disappointed.

"Luffy, stay behind me!"
Ace shouted as the flames on his arms condensed into a massive wall of fire.
"Mirror Flame!"
Luffy refused to back down, stretching his arms with a stubborn look in his eyes.
"I'm not backing off! We'll send him flying together!"
Just as the brothers prepared to take the golden shock wave
