"That was a 'phenomenon'!"
Rayleigh's voice had grown dry and hoarse from utter horror.
"Like an absolute law of causality: 'If he points at you, you die'!"
When Rayleigh's judgment, filled with horror and disbelief, reached every survivor present, all of God Valley, the island already reduced to a bloody killing ground, fell into a deathly, suffocating silence.
Everyone's movements stopped at that moment.
The members of the Rocks Pirates, who had been slaughtering madly, seemed to have been paused, their vicious grins frozen into comical statues.
Golden Lion Shiki, locked in fierce combat with Marine Vice Admiral Zephyr, held his two legendary famous swords, Sakura Ten and Kogarashi, suspended in midair, unable to bring them down another inch.
Whitebeard Edward Newgate, fiercely battling "Pluton" Rayleigh, likewise froze with his tsunami-raising Supreme Grade Sword, Murakumogiri. His eyes, always filled with boldness and defiance, stared fixedly at the enormous headless body slowly drifting down in the distance, his face filled with shock and gravity unlike anything he had ever experienced!
At the center of it all, Kaido of the Beasts stood beside Big Mom's headless corpse, his enormous, Demon God-like body trembling violently beyond his control!
Dead?
That monster who had left Rocks's ship alongside him! Charlotte Linlin, who would contend with him for the position of Emperor of the Sea! That woman with the terrifying defenses of an "iron balloon"!
She had died just like that?
Killed effortlessly with one finger, as though she were a balloon being popped?
Gulp.
Kaido swallowed with difficulty. An icy chill ten thousand times stronger than what he had felt on Kuraigana Island shot from his tailbone straight to the crown of his head! He felt as though the "body of a hundred beasts" he took such pride in had become an empty shell
