"Get this ship—ashore—!!!!!"

Accompanied by this earth-shaking ultimate roar, brimming with Jack's PhilosophyJust Charge—a large warship flying the Beasts Pirates' flag, its bow somewhat mangled from collisions, charged like a mad bull that had broken free of its reins. It brutally crushed through a vast expanse of thick ice ahead, screeching against the surface as ice shards sprayed in every direction. With a thunderous boom, it became wedged in a complex heap of ice several hundred meters from the main battlefield, almost as if it had run aground! The hull tilted, the masts leaned crookedly, and the sight was utterly pathetic.

"Roar—!!"

An earth-shaking Elephant Roar rang out! At the bow, "Drought" Jack in Mammoth Elephant Form stood with his enormous body covered in thick fur and sturdy tusks, his Back Hooves planted on the slanted deck as he looked even more irritable.

His massive Elephant Eyes swept over the stuck ship and the Chaotic Battlefield ahead. Without the slightest hesitation, he issued a simple and brutal command. "Minions! Ship is Stable!"

Though it was clearly anything but stable, the Ship King went on Lying with Eyes Open. "Abandon ship! Follow me down there—fight the Marines!!!"

"Awwoooo—!!"

Dozens of savage roars answered him!

The bizarre Zoan Ability User lackeys who had long been stifled aboard the ship—Giraffe-men, Rhino-men, Sabertooth Tiger-men, Crocodile-men...—all leaped down. Some landed on the ice, while others crashed straight into the freezing water before Climb Up. Like a Beast Pack breaking loose, they followed Jack the Mammoth Elephant, howling as they Charged toward the Marines and CP0 Currently Besieging the Imperial Guards in the wildest possible fashion!

With these Disruptors from the Beasts Pirates joining the fray, the Advantageous Rhythm brought by the Seraphim was Instantly Broke!

Zoan Ability Users were Thick-skinned and Tough, with Berserk Strength. Their Fighting Style had No Method, yet they feared no death!

A Rhino-man charged Head Down, his Sharp Horns covered in Armament Haki, and Knocked Away several Marine Soldiers who had Formed a Formation.

A Sabertooth Tiger-man pounced on a CP0 member. Though he was quickly Forced Back by the other's Finger Pistol, he still successfully disrupted their Offensive Rhythm.

Jack himself was like a Heavy Bulldozer, his Mammoth Elephant's Trunk and Giant Hooves Swept Across everything in his path, leaving People and Horses Overturned. He temporarily relieved the pressure on the Imperial Guards, and the situation Slightly Stabilized.

At the Edge of the Battlefield, within a shadow concealed by a Half-collapsed Building.

Marshall D. Teach, Blackbeard, was Lurking with his Core Crewmates Lafitte, Burgess, Van Augur, and Doc Q.

His Big Mouth, missing several teeth, was stretched into a grin, with saliva nearly Dripping Down. His Greedy Gaze swept across the battlefield's "prey" like searchlights.

In the Sky, Ace's magnificent Golden Red Fire Phoenix was Fighting Fiercely with Ryokugyu. "Hehehehe! Fire Phoenix! What a perfect ability! Much Stronger than the diamonds on that useless Thatch!"

At the core of the Ice and Fire Collision, Yamato in Great Mouth True God Form was in Hard Confrontation with Akainu. "An Ice Element Mythical Zoan! Wonderful! This ability is Worthy of My Ambition!"

What made him most impatient was still Gol D. Allen, who was Eating Melon Seeds at the Center of the Battlefield and using his Space Ability to save people From Time to Time!

"Space! Time! Hehehehe! The Rarest Ability in the World! With It, I can become a True God! The Dark-Dark Fruit is only the foundation; Space and Time are the ultimate powers!"

Blackbeard roared madly in his heart, fantasizing about possessing the Dark-Dark, Tremor-Tremor, and Space-Time Fruit simultaneously, then Rule the World.

But reality swiftly poured a bucket of cold water over his fervor.

That guy Allen might have been Eating Melon Seeds, but his eyes were Extremely Sharp, and his Space Ability was Ready to Go Anytime. There was simply no opening for a Sneak Attack! "Tsk! That Cunning Brat!"

Blackbeard Gritted his teeth in hatred. "Wait a moment longer... wait a moment longer... When he and a Marine Admiral or one of the Five Elders Fight to a mutual destruction... that will be My Opportunity!

"Stay low! Hehehehe!"

He could only desperately suppress his Inner Restlessness and continue watching the battle in a cowardly manner.

On the Command Platform, Sengoku watched Jack and his group of Zoan Ability Users disrupt the rhythm of CP0 and the Seraphim like Wild Bulls charging into a Porcelain Shop, and his expression Sank Further.

He needed More Powerful pieces to break the deadlock and suppress the High-end Combat Power of Allen's Faction.

"Shichibukai! What are you waiting for?!"

Sengoku's imposing, unquestionable voice Resounded across the battlefield through the amplified Den Den Mushi. "Fulfill your duties! Target—all Enemy Executives! Attack Immediately!"

Military Orders Are Like Mountains! Even if they were unwilling, the named Shichibukai could only Grit their teeth and emerge from their respective Hiding Places, joining this Chaotic Feast.

Without Warning, the Modified Version of Bartholomew Kuma's enormous figure instantly Appeared behind several Marine Soldiers Currently Besieging an injured Imperial Guard.

His face was expressionless, his eyes Vacant Eyes.

His huge palm, covered in Special Metal, rose as the paw pads in its center compressed the air.

"Bang!"

A Silent Shockwave erupted! Before the Marine Soldiers even had time to scream, they were Blasted Away like Rag Dolls and Exploded into Blood Mist in midair!

Immediately afterward, Kuma Disappeared Again, Teleporting to another battlefield and repeating the Ruthless Process of "Teleport—strike—disappear."

His efficiency was terrifyingly high. Completely Indiscriminate, he slapped anyone who stood In Front of the Target. He was a pure Killing Machine.

Edward Weevil, a Big Fool with a huge Snot Bubbles hanging from his nose and a Naginata in hand, clumsily Rushed to the Center of the Battlefield. Looking Left and Right with a Blank Expression, he said, "Mother? Who did Mother say to fight? That one... hmm..."

His gaze wandered over the Chaotic Battlefield before finally Locked onto Ace, who was Currently with Ryokugyu, his entire body Burning with Azure Flames. "Ah! Found him! The Fire-wielding bird-man! Mother said to fight the bird-man!!"

Weevil Shouted excitedly, dragging his enormous Naginata as he broke into Heavy Steps and Charged toward Ace with a thunderous rumble! Along the way, he Knocked Away several unlucky pirates and Marines in his path, Completely Indiscriminate.

A Lizard-man covered in Green Scales, dragging a Long Tail and flicking a forked tongue, silently Appeared at the Edge of the Battlefield.

The King of Lizards, Hanafusa, Scanned the battlefield with cold Vertical Pupils, seemingly evaluating Where to start would be More Effortless.

"Hiss... the Lizard Food Given by the Marines tastes alright... hiss... I suppose I'll Do some work."

Muttering to himself, he suddenly Popped out, Fast as Lightning. His sharp Claws, Wrapped in Armament Haki, easily Tore open a Marine Major General's throat.

After Took down one target, he Did not immediately enter another battle. Instead... he actually Took out A small packet wrapped in Oiled Paper from the Pocket Under Scales, poured out several things resembling Dried Insects, Tossed into mouth, and went "Crunch crunch" as he Chewed, as though Replenish Stamina.
