Straw Hat Pirates Break Out

Rain stared fixedly at Saint Saturn's perfectly intact bull-horned head, the dark gray vertical pupils in his eyes shrinking into needle-like glints of destruction:

"I thought smashing you into the ground with one punch would end this boring cleanup early. But this is fine too. If the immortal freaks sitting in the Holy Land were all as fragile as paper, the journey ahead would be far too disappointing. Let's see just how many of my heavy punches that turtle shell of yours can withstand today!"

Boom—!

Before his words had even faded, the scorched earth beneath Rain's feet was once again crushed downward by unimaginable absolute gravity. Surging Core Heat, together with his soaring fighting spirit, dyed the entire sky a boiling dark red!

As Rain faced the bizarrely resurrected Saint Saturn once more at the edge of the massive crater in the core battlefield, his fighting spirit reigniting, the battle on the other side of Egghead, at the edge of the towering Labo-Phase, had likewise reached a fever pitch.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

Dense laser shells exploded into enormous fireballs across the pristine, futuristic buildings. Metal fragments and reinforced glass scattered through the air like rain.

"Seal every exit! We absolutely cannot let the Straw Hat Pirates take Vegapunk's satellites away!!" Several Marine Headquarters vice admirals wearing coats of justice waved longswords coated in Armament Haki as they hysterically commanded the encirclement forces ahead.

Before them, more than ten Pacifistas gleaming with cold metallic light stood in formation, the laser cannons in their palms and mouths almost continuously unleashing destructive beams. On top of that, two eerie figures in white suits and masks turned into streaks of white afterimages across the battlefield, tearing through the air with piercing shrieks. They were CP0, the World Government's directly controlled intelligence agency—Rob Lucci
