With Kong Tokikake being instantly killed by Noah.
The remaining navy in the Lulusia Kingdom consists only of Borsalino, Kuzan, Onigumo, and Gecko Moria, who was forcibly conscripted to fight.
Borsalino quickly shook off Joshua and Vic, appearing not far from Kuzan.
" His Fleet Admiral has been killed in action."
Kuzan's Observation Haki also sensed Sora's death. He clearly saw that Borsalino had already decided to back down, and Kuzan did not object to this, because it was the best choice.
"Let's retreat! You go cover Onigumo and the others as they retreat, I'll hold off the enemy."
Borsalino nodded, then transformed into a beam of light and vanished into the icy landscape.
Kuzan, still possessing considerable stamina, swiftly unleashed his attack. " Ice Age! Ice Storm!"
A terrifying blizzard quickly swept across Lulusia Island.
However, the next moment, Kuzan quickly entered Elementalization state, and a Positron Cannon evaporated hundreds of meters of ice.
Joshua appeared not far away, and with Lilian joining him, Kuzan felt even more pressure.
However, Joshua ignored Kuzan; his goal was very clear: to pursue Borsalino.
If Noah doesn't intervene, Joshua needs to keep a close eye on Borsalino to prevent him from harming or interfering with the other companions.
Borsalino appeared not far from Onigumo and the others, and was about to attack Kuro when he was spotted by Joshua, who was following closely behind.
"You really are persistent!" Borsalino, now burning with rage, turned to Onigumo and shouted, " Onigumo, retreat immediately!"
"..." Despite his reluctance, Onigumo knew very well that if he didn't retreat now, he might really be buried here. While dealing with Kuro's attacks, he moved quickly towards the Buster Call fleet.
Sensing the danger as well, Moria naturally wouldn't stay and fight to the death. He quickly used Doppelman to Teleportation, disappearing from the island in a few moments, his escape speed much faster than Onigumo's.
However, Kuro watched Moria's disappearing figure with a sinister look, stored the few drops of blood Moria left nearby, and then went all out to deal with Onigumo.
Losing Moria, a powerful ally, has made Onigumo's situation increasingly precarious.
Borsalino watched, but felt powerless to do anything about it.
If he is careless against Joshua, who is also a speedster, he may be exposed and suffer a crushing defeat.
Suddenly, Onigumo's feet sank into the ground.
Countless grains of yellow sand bound his feet tightly.
Borsalino stared in fury as he watched helplessly as Onigumo ripped out the heart of Kuro.
" Heavenly Aurora!" Borsalino, enraged, ignored Joshua's menacing gaze and unleashed a terrifying laser beam at Kuro.
" Sand Dust Barrier!" Vic conjured an impenetrable dust storm, which rapidly weakened the laser's power.
Joshua seized the opportunity to strike, his Railgun, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, instantly hitting Borsalino's arm and shattering it completely. Even Elementalization couldn't save that arm.
"Cough cough..." Borsalino clutched his bloody wound in pain, then instantly transformed into a beam of light and disappeared not far away.
And when Borsalino appeared on Kuzan's side.
He saw Kuzan with one of his legs cut off, and Noah the Liberator who resembled a demon god.
" Kuzan! Are you alright?!"
"It's alright, but we need to retreat as soon as possible!"
Soon after, Lilian, Vic, Joshua, Kuro, and Lilith appeared behind Noah.
Faced with such a formidable lineup, even Borsalino, known for his speed, felt a deadly sense of crisis.
Suddenly, Noah frowned.
Because his Observation Haki sensed two terrifying auras rapidly approaching Lulusia Island.
Because he focused on the battle, the range of his Observation Haki was reduced to a radius of about one hundred kilometers.
In other words, the two creatures represented by those auras were less than 100 kilometers away from Lulusia Island, and their speed was astonishing, almost Hiss.
It is estimated that the other side will appear over Lulusia Island in another five or six minutes.
"Brother, two presences are rapidly approaching." Joshua also noticed the two uninvited guests.
Noah had no intention of retreating immediately. "It must be naval reinforcements. Let me see who they are."
Borsalino and Kuzan, seeing Noah and the others stop, also moved slowly toward the Buster Call fleet while remaining on guard.
Six minutes later.
A series of sonic booms flashed across the sky.
Two enormous objects descended from the sky.
Borsalino, who had already retreated several kilometers, saw the two monsters and a look of relief appeared in his eyes. "Those two lords actually took action themselves."
Kuzan was naturally aware of the existence of the Five Elders, and had even met them, but he didn't know that they were Mythical Zoan users.
The two quickly stopped in their tracks.
Saint Saturn and Saint Mars appeared in orc form before Noah and the others, less than two hundred meters away.
Noah stared at them fearlessly. "So it's the Five Elders. Instead of hiding in Mary Geoise, are you planning to come here to your deaths?"
"Sinner, today is your death day!" Saint Saturn attacked instantly.
Noah also swung his fist to meet the attack.
Boom! With the Strength Amplification a hundredfold, even Saint Saturn, who was empowered by the Mythical Zoan, was instantly blasted several kilometers away.
"Is this the strength you've amassed over eight hundred years? Too weak, utterly pathetic!"
Saint Mars, who was standing to the side, slightly opened his eyes.
However, Noah did not continue fighting, because Saint Saturn was already using a summoning circle to summon the remaining three Five Elders.
Moreover, Borsalino and Kuzan, two generals of Admiral, were also present.
If all five of the Five Elders descend together, that's equivalent to the fighting strength of seven Admiral.
Unless Noah summons the hidden Apostle such as Kaido and Shiki, the two sides will be evenly matched in the current situation.
Noah could handle three Admiral.
Joshua is facing a Admiral- level opponent.
Vic is facing a Admiral- level opponent.
Lilian is facing an Admiral- level opponent.
Kuro and Lilith team up to take on an Admiral- level opponent.
However, the World Government certainly has other backup plans and reinforcements, so Noah naturally wouldn't continue fighting to the death here. In any case, he had already taken down three top-tier Marine fighters and two Vice Admiral, so he chose to stop while he was ahead.
" Five Elders, the next time we meet will be the day you die."
As soon as he finished speaking, Noah and the others activated the Escape Passage and were sucked directly into the Castle Space. They then exited from Bege's side and appeared at the York Island underground base in the West Blue Governorate.
Just as Saint Saturn was about to call for help, he sensed the disappearance of Noah and the others, and his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Even Saint Mars, who was about to intervene, was shocked by the way Noah and the others disappeared, because it was different from any spatial ability recorded before.
Based on their previous speculation, the space-type ability user in the Liberator Organization might be one of the Hole-Hole Fruit, Teleport-Teleport Fruit, or Mirror-Mirror Fruit.
However, what just happened completely overturned the Five Elders ' previous guesses.
Saint Saturn and Saint Mars exchanged a silent glance, their eyes communicating for a moment, before deciding to deal with the immediate mess.
" Borsalino, Kuzan, you two go bandage your wounds first. Let Momonga lead the marines ashore and gather any useful information."
"Yes, Lord Five Elders!"
