"Marines, Shichibukai, Big Mom of the Five Emperors, you're all asking to die..."
The final confirmation from the Frenzied Leopard Beast Shikigami left Bullet's eyes bloodshot, his breath coming in heavy pants.
It further strengthened his resolve to eliminate the other Five Emperors.

And circumstances like these meant death!
Just as the battle in Area 38 ended in a bitter Marine victory, the Marines' great battle in Area 43 also
