The addition of the Human Weapons escalated the battle to an inhuman level.
Their cold energy weapons collided with CP0's specially made knuckle-dusters and short blades, sending sparks flying.
White masks shattered one after another, revealing faces filled with shock or madness beneath. The Human Weapons' armor was also torn apart by CP0's Finger Pistol: Spot and Tempest Kick: Triumphant Bird, exposing the mechanical structures inside, yet they still charged forward fearless of death.
At the Center of the Battlefield, the CP0 Commander fought Spencer and Lucky Roo alone. Finger Pistols roared like dragons, Tempest Kicks split the air, and Haki clashes rumbled like muffled thunder!
CP0 Agents continually fell, Human Weapons were dismantled and scrapped, while the Roger Remnants and Red-Haired Pirates Executives were also wounded one after another. The battle was brutally fierce and deadlocked.
Sabo and Ace joined forces against Red the Aloof, who had been strengthened by the Abyss Mark and completely descended into bloodthirsty madness!
"Fire Fist: Flame Net!"
Sabo's massive flaming net sealed off Laid's retreat.
"Phoenix Seal: Blue Flame Impact!"
Ace transformed into a blue Fire Phoenix and dove down with scorching heat that could purify everything!
Laid's eyes glowed crimson. He moved with ghostly speed, his rapier Wrapped in blood-red Armament Haki as he easily sliced through the flames.
"Blood... such delicious power!"
Using a vampire's agility and his ability to drain life force, he darted through the sea of flames, trying to close in.
Sabo's Dragon Claw Fist was Wrapped in flames and Haki, while Ace's phoenix claws burned with blue fire. The brothers' hearts were in perfect sync, multiplying the power of their combined attack.
"Brother's Combined Attack: Double Sappy Flames—Eternal Bond Burst!"
Sabo's orange-red flames and Ace's deep-blue flames spiraled together, forming a blazing tornado that incinerated all things and swallowed Laid whole!
Laid let out a pained shriek. The Blood Mist was instantly vaporized, but the Abyss Mark flashed as he struggled out of the inferno, scorch marks covering his body and madness burning even fiercer in his eyes!
Fisher Tiger and Jinbe, two top-tier experts of the Fish-Man Race, pushed the secrets of Fish-Man Karate to their limits as they besieged Blackbeard, who possessed the Dark-Dark Fruit Ability!
"Dark Water!"
Blackbeard activated his ability with a savage grin, trying to pull away Fisher Tiger's or Jinbe's powers, but Fish-Man Karate was not a Devil Fruit ability. Dark Water was useless!
"Damn it!"
"Fish-Man Karate: Secret Technique: Buryaku Kan!"
Jinbe unleashed an ultra-high-pressure water cannon blast!
"Fish-Man Karate: Ultimate Secret Technique: Oni-Gawara Seiken!"
The ultimate punch contained Fisher Tiger's lifelong convictions and strength!
Blackbeard roared as he activated the Dark-Dark Fruit, using his black-hole body to absorb the impact.
But Fisher Tiger and Jinbe's attacks contained supreme Armament Haki and the power of ocean currents, giving them a natural advantage against an Ability User!
"Pwah!"
Blackbeard was blasted backward again and again by Buryaku Kan's water cannon, then Fisher Tiger's Oni-Gawara Seiken, which seemed to carry the rage of the entire Fish-Man Race, smashed brutally into his chest!
Even with the Dark-Dark Fruit absorbing the damage, the terrifying impact and Haki still made him cough up blood!
The Abyss Mark on his forehead flickered violently.
"Bastards! You damned fish-men!"
He flew into a rage, frantically unleashing Black Vortex and shockwaves. Yet Fisher Tiger and Jinbe were like reefs in the sea, standing firm amid raging waves, using softness to overcome strength and power to break skill!
On the ruins far from the main battlefield, Ben Beckman, First Mate of the Red-Haired Pirates, held a cigar between his teeth and calmly watched Figarland Shamlotte, captain of the Holy Knights.
Shamlotte held a lavishly decorated longsword Wrapped in black Conqueror's Haki lightning, his gaze proud and cold.
Without a word, the two moved at once!
Beckman's flintlock gun was like an extension of his arm, its bullets Wrapped in top-tier Armament Haki and following tricky, lethal trajectories.
Shamlotte's swordsmanship resembled a courtly dance, elegant yet deadly. Every slash carried the force to cleave mountains apart, effortlessly knocking away the bullets.
It was a clash of wisdom and strength.
Beckman used the terrain, prediction, and precise gun-fighting techniques to keep pressuring Shamlotte.
Shamlotte countered with overwhelming Haki and exquisite sword techniques, deflecting every attack before striking back.
Their movements were Fast as Lightning. Every exchange erupted with piercing metallic clashes and black-red lightning.
Beckman's cigar never fell from his mouth. Amid the swirling smoke, his eyes were sharp as an eagle's as he searched for his opponent's weakness.
Shamlotte, meanwhile, was like a perfect knight's statue, his defense utterly flawless.
Elsewhere, Gunko and three other members of the Holy Knights had fallen into an extremely troublesome siege!
Hancock stood proudly at a high point, her pink Slave Arrows pouring down like a rainstorm. The God's Knights had no choice but to divide their attention between evading them and shattering them with Haki—one misstep and they would become stone statues!
"This Empress's beauty is also a weapon!"
After dealing with several aerial threats, Nana came over as well.
"Divine Sanction MAX!"
Thick pillars of golden lightning kept crashing down, forcing the God's Knights to dodge frantically as ripples spread across their protective Haki from the explosions.
Under Allen's command, ten Seraphim charged at the God's Knights like cold Killing Machines, fearless of death.
They endured the God's Knights' powerful attacks, yet continued launching suicidal assaults with Energy Beams and searing flames, greatly draining the God's Knights' stamina and Haki.
Moria's Shadow Bats and Shadow Warriors darted across the battlefield, constantly harassing them, blocking their vision, and even attempting to bind the God's Knights' ankles with shadows.
Though the effects were limited, they were endlessly irritating.
"Heeheehee! Gentlemen knights, come dance with me!"
The four God's Knights were immensely powerful. Sword light, shockwaves, energy blasts, and even beams resembling Devil Fruit abilities poured forth nonstop, shattering the stone arrows, deflecting the lightning, knocking back the Seraphim, and tearing apart the shadows.
Their combat was dazzling and efficient, like four brilliant stars shining amid the siege. Every counterattack carried destructive power.
The attacks surrounding them were like a violent storm, while they stood like boulders, unshaken by wind and rain. The battle had become chaotic beyond measure, yet also dazzlingly spectacular!
The battle had reached a fever pitch, and every battlefield was locked in a stalemate.
Blood stained the Holy Land red. Powerful figures clashed amid furious roars, and the entire world Trembled in this ultimate battle.
At the core of the battlefield, a vast area deliberately cleared out was Filled with an aura far older and more ominous than the battlefields below.
Five figures slowly emerged from the depths of Pangu City. Every step seemed to tread upon the pulse of the age, making even the air freeze.
They were the Five Elders—the World Government's highest symbols of authority!
Figarland Garling, the Science Defense Martial God, wore a luxurious robe and held a sinister long blade Wrapped in black-red lightning. His eyes were as cold as ice as he watched his biological son standing before him.
Shanks likewise rested a hand on Griffin's hilt. There was no anger in his one eye, only deep sorrow and an incomparably resolute determination.
Between father and son flowed an indescribably complicated emotion.
"Move aside, Shanks. Your path is the wrong one."
Garling's voice grated like cold iron.
"Father... no, Garling. The wrong path is the one you have walked for eight hundred years! Today, I will set it right!"
