Above Bali Island.
As two new members of the Holy Knights joined the battlefield, the balance of the battle began tipping toward the World Government once again.
The Holy Knight holding a Flintlock Musket kept shifting positions in midair, firing Seastone Bullets at Sengoku and the other two as though his gun had unlimited ammunition.
He moved like a swimming dragon. Since everyone had discovered that he was firing Seastone Bullets, they had no choice but to leave this knight to Zephyr.
He handled Zephyr with ease, even finding opportunities to shoot at Sengoku and Kizaru.
Bullets interrupted crucial attacks time and again.
Meanwhile, the other taciturn Holy Knight of the Manmayer Family, Gunko, worked alongside Rob Lucci.
Using the power of her Paramecia-type Arrow-Arrow Fruit, she created Bandage Strips with arrowhead-shaped ends, rapidly constricting Sengoku and Kizaru's room to maneuver from tricky angles.
She also wrapped them around her limbs, forming enormous Gauntlets and Boots that strengthened her limbs as she fought Sengoku and the other two at close quarters.
"These people..."
Zephyr was shocked. He could not understand.
Every single one of them is stronger than an Admiral?! Just how much power is hidden in the Holy Land Mary Geoise?! If they're this strong, why do they let pirates run rampant on the seas?
Kizaru, too, grew more serious than ever before. After all, if he did not get serious now, he really would lose his life here.
He parried attacks with Ama no Murakumo while inwardly lamenting.
Oh dear... This really is something. If I'd known, I'd have gone out with Pero and let Kuzan face these people.
The Buddha Form Sengoku had assumed was also surrounded by several powerful opponents, and streaks of black Armament Haki began appearing across his golden body.
*Damn it. These people
