Meanwhile, in a shadowy corner near the entrance platform of the Holy Land, Mary Geoise, two members of the Holy Knights
The Sheep-Skull-Masked God Knight and the God's Knight holding a Sniper Rifle stared in disbelief at everything unfolding before them.
Above all, they had witnessed Saint Figarland Garling, their supreme commander and captain of the Holy Knights, whose strength they had always considered unfathomable
Actually... sent flying by a single slash from that Marine Admiral, his fate unknown?!
He was the captain of the Holy Knights!
He possessed supreme status and power! Yet he could not withstand even one strike?!
The sheer shock left their minds briefly blank.
But in that fleeting moment of distraction, they discovered to their horror
That Gern had not even stopped walking. Without so much as looking at the outcome, he headed straight deeper into the Holy Land
Toward the heart of the World Government's power, Pangaea Castle and the Land of the Gods-the residence of the Celestial Dragons!
Was he really planning to fight his way into Pangaea Castle alone?!!
That insane thought instantly sent chills crawling over both God's Knights' scalps and filled them with terror!
If Gern broke through, the families backing them would be finished!!!
"Stop him!" The Sheep-Skull-Masked God Knight barely hesitated. With a low shout to his companion, he shot out of the shadows
At blinding speed, like a phantom melding with the darkness, his enormous scythe tracing a cold black gleam
As he silently appeared behind Gern and swept the blade toward his vulnerable neck!
"Shadow Flash Slash!"
Shhk! The sharp scythe passed through Gern's neck without resistance, even slicing diagonally through his upper body!
But before the Sheep-Skull-Masked God Knight could rejoice, he felt something deeply strange through his blade
It did not feel like cutting
