The great battle had begun.
Garp and Sengoku, two top combatants, joined forces against Roger.
Overwhelming pressure crashed against Roger in wave after relentless wave.
Their decades of rapport made their combined strength far greater than the sum of its parts.
Two fists could hardly contend with four hands, and Roger had only a single sword.
Even so, Roger held his ground.
Future Sight, Armament Haki, Conqueror's Domain—he brought out every means he possessed to stand his ground on these seas.
Breaking through Roger's defenses in a short time would not be easy.
Garp knew Roger well. He knew that as time passed, Roger's fighting strength would only grow.
Rayleigh stood high in the sky, a Black Blade in hand, his formidable Haki forming an Absolute Domain.
Dragon and the CP0 Chief joined forces against Rayleigh.
Facing the combined assault of two monsters, Rayleigh showed no signs of faltering either.
With his Conqueror's Domain, he naturally held an edge over his enemies. His slashes radiated boundless pressure as they clashed again and again with the CP0 Chief and Dragon.
Gaban's opponents were Zephyr and Army General Bamboo Python.
Zephyr and Bamboo Python did not have the same rapport as Garp and Sengoku.
But both were masters of body techniques, and Bamboo Python was also an ancient Zoan Devil Fruit user.
They had known each other in the previous era, when Zephyr had yet to become an Admiral and Bamboo Python was still an Admiral Candidate.
As long as they made an effort to coordinate, their formidable combined strength kept Gaban firmly suppressed.
Kozuki Oden's opponents were the CP0 Deputy Director-General and Army General White Ghost.
The CP0 Deputy Director-General alone was no weaker than him. Adding Army General White Ghost only made Kozuki Oden's predicament worse.
