A bolt of lightning struck from a clear sky; the entire sky, a deep blue, was filled with beams of thunder that plummeted downwards.

Below, Aokiji's expression was solemn, with a large ice wall above his head resisting.

The collision of lightning and ice generated extremely high temperatures. Faced with the combined attack of Enel and Rob Lucci, Kuzan could only defend himself for a time, and the two sides maintained a balance.

It might not be apparent in the short term, but given enough time, Aokiji will inevitably find himself in a difficult situation.

Meanwhile, far away, Kizaru was first besieged by Enel and Ye Chen. Kizaru was already seriously injured, and now, facing Ye Chen's attack, he had no power to resist and could only passively defend, making his situation increasingly dangerous.

Meanwhile, naval bases 60 to 69 in the Sabaody Archipelago are now facing rampant destruction from a rabbit and a dragon.

The flames were raging, the smoke was thick, and the ground was littered with corpses—a truly gruesome sight.

The entire scene was reduced to ruins. Bai Doudou wore a cruel smile, showing no pity whatsoever.

Since what happened with Hina, both Ye Chen and Bai Doudou have changed, becoming unrecognizable. Their former mischievousness and carefree nature have vanished.

Both the man and the rabbit have only one goal: to destroy the navy.

Instead of placing the main responsibility on Sakazuki, Chaton, and others, Ye Chen and Bai Doudou believed it was the Navy's fault, and that everyone from the Fleet Admiral to the Marines should die.

This was the dark side of Ye Chen's mind magnified after learning of Hina's death. Therefore, he did not threaten the Navy, nor did he say that he would come back for revenge as long as he lived.

He didn't. He didn't roar or howl; he simply kept those people in his heart, remembering them deeply.

One day, he will make everyone pay ten times, a hundred times the price; he will make the entire navy pay the price for Hina's death.

Bai Doudou, having personally witnessed Hina's death, grew up from the moment he pulled Bai Doudou out of Hina's stomach. He changed, became unrecognizable, and was no longer as carefree as before.

Now, all he feels is hatred, hatred for the navy.

Destroying the naval branch was a piece of cake for him.

"Boss, the navy reinforcements have arrived."

It spread its wings and spat out a fireball the size of a house from its mouth, Burning the naval branch. Suddenly, it saw more than a dozen huge warships approaching from afar on the sea.

"Go back."

Without turning her head, Bai Doudou looked at the sea and walked directly towards the center of the Sabaody Archipelago.

At the heart of the battle, golden light shot out, a dark mushroom cloud rose, houses and mangroves collapsed, and Kizaru lay dying on the shattered ground, covered in blood, blood gushing from his mouth.

"It seems no one can save you."

Ye Chen landed gracefully, his face indifferent. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and slowly walked towards Kizaru. Midway, he pulled out a sharp wooden stick from the ruins, which quickly turned black, and pointed it at Kizaru.

Lying on the ground, Kizaru struggled, but his body's collapse rendered him unable to move. He could only watch helplessly as Ye Chen pointed Armament Haki covered in armor at him. For the first time, panic appeared on his blood-stained face.

"Damn it, if you want to find someone, find Sakazuki. What does it have to do with me, you lunatic?"

Roaring angrily, Kizaru had no desire to die.

However, Ye Chen didn't give Kizaru a chance to argue. He thrust the sharp weapon in his hand directly at Kizaru's head.

Swift and decisive, ruthless and merciless, going straight for the kill.

"Ye Chen, you bastard!"

The threat of death terrified Kizaru, sending chills down his spine.

Time froze, a fleeting moment of brilliance, and a giant hand appeared, firmly grasping the stabbing weapon. A storm swept away the surrounding area.

With a blank expression, Ye Chen looked at the person who had come in, then suddenly became ruthless and kicked him out.

"Boom"

The dull thud was deafening. Unable to stop it, Ye Chen Backslide a few steps, while the newcomer, grabbing Kizaru's shoulder, was also thrown sideways.

"Boss, the navy reinforcements have arrived."

At this moment, Bai Doudou and Huo rushed over, but seeing the situation, they knew they were too late.

Standing with his hands behind his back, Ye Chen looked indifferently at Garp, who had saved Kizaru, his gaze chilling.

"How did you escape from Impel Down?!"

Looking directly at Ye Chen, Garp frowned. Before coming here, he hadn't dared to believe it, but now that they were face to face, Garp realized the seriousness of the matter.

Staring blankly at Garp, Ye Chen didn't answer. His long hair moved without wind, and black smoke began to rise from his body, with sparks flashing intermittently.

"It seems you harbor a deep hatred for the Navy."

Seeing that look in his eyes again, Garp finally understood the trepidation he had felt back then. This guy had a plan from the very beginning to ensure his escape from Impel Down.

Although the methods used are unknown, it was enough to make the navy's heart sink.

"I have no hatred for the navy, I just want to destroy it, by any means necessary."

It was very calm and uneventful, just like the event itself, yet it caused Garp and Kizaru's expressions to change drastically.

Using any means necessary, how can there not be hatred?

For some reason, Garp and Kizaru felt a chill run down their spines, making their scalps tingle.

This guy has become so obsessed that he sees all the navy as enemies; he's gone mad.

Garp could even foresee that this guy's future threat would surpass that of the Revolutionary Army and the Four Emperors.

Because Ye Chen only wanted to destroy their navy; that was his sole objective.

With a solemn expression, a powerful aura emanated from Garp. No matter what, he had to capture Ye Chen today, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

A gentle breeze stirred up dust, and no further words were needed. The ground trembled, and an unseen light appeared. In an instant, a cataclysmic tsunami swept across everything, engulfing all.

At the eye of the storm, two fists collided, instantly splitting the entire sky in two, causing wind and clouds to surge.

"Boom boom boom"

Strands of dark red lightning slashed down, plunging the entire Sabaody Archipelago into darkness, before erupting into chaos.

An unparalleled storm, forming a catastrophe, swept down.

Almost simultaneously, the battle between Enel, Rob Lucci, and Aokiji in the southern part of the Sabaody Archipelago ceased.

"Two Conqueror's Haki."

Frowning, Enel looked at the overwhelming force of the collapsing mountains and tsunamis beside him, a glint of longing flashing in his eyes.

"This aura... it's the old man."

His face was covered in blood, Aokiji body was tattered; he appeared to have suffered a severe injury.

"Take care of this guy first." Rob Lucci turned his head, looked at Aokiji, and wiped the blood from his mouth.

However, just as they were about to make their move, a large number of marines suddenly surrounded them from all directions, led by Onigumo, Hōshō, and others.

"Thunder God Enel, Rob Lucci, you're surrounded!"

With a serious expression, Onigumo shrank his eyes as he looked at Aokiji's miserable state. This was the first time he had ever seen Aokiji in such a disheveled state.

"A bunch of idiots."

Seeing the approaching Marines, Enel looked disdainful, his body crackling with lightning, the air rumbling as bolts of lightning crashed down.

"Heart."

Drawing his weapon from his waist, Onigumo gave a few instructions before unleashing a massive slash that shot into the sky.

At the same time, Hōshō and his group also launched an attack.

The scene was chaotic.
