On the other side, Kaido, the Governor of the Beasts Pirates, had already transford into a massive Azure Dragon, writhing within the clouds.
From his mouth and nostrils, gusts of wind blades and flas continuously spewed forth, as he lunged towards the plaza below.
The three Admirals had been waiting for this mont.
Aokiji utilized his ice powers to minimize the damage from Kaido's flas, while Akainu's magma obliterated the wind blades mid-air.
At the sa ti, Garp stepped forward with a calm expression.
"I'll handle Kaido!" he declared.
As soon as the words left his mouth, an overwhelming aura erupted from his body.
His arms instantly turned jet-black, with tightly coiled muscles brimming with terrifying power.
In the next mont, his right foot stomped the ground with such force that it created a massive crater, sending rocks flying and cracks spreading across the surface.
His body shot into the sky like a spear piercing through the air.
"Fist of the teorite!" Garp roared, his fist carrying a devastating force as it slamd into Kaido's enormous body.
Due to his sheer size, Kaido couldn't dodge the blow.
A dull thud echoed as the scales where Garp struck shattered, leaving a bloody ss.
Kaido's body was sent tumbling through the clouds, stirring up massive dark clouds.
"Floating Island!" Garp suddenly exclaid in surprise.
Behind the dark clouds, he caught sight of Shiki's floating island.
What shocked him more than the island itself were the strange black creatures on it.
Each one was pitch black, unlike any creature that should exist in this world.
"Those are the monsters that appeared in the East Blue!" Garp quickly recognized them.
In recent years, bizarre creatures had been appearing out of nowhere in the East Blue and he had dealt with such incidents multiple tis.
These creatures were pitch black, just like the ones on the floating island, though they were nowhere near as massive.
'So Shiki is behind all of this!' Garp thought to himself.
But in the next mont, sothing even more astonishing happened.
The black creatures began to rise from the island and descended towards the battlefield below like dumplings falling into a pot.
'ROAARR!'
anwhile, Kaido having taken Garp's blow, glared furiously at him with his dragon eyes.
In the brief mont Garp was distracted, Kaido's massive tail swung sideways with astonishing speed, cutting through the air with a sharp whistling sound.
In an instant, the tail was right in front of Garp, carrying imnse energy and an intimidating force.
"Damn it!" Garp thought, realizing the danger as the tail ca crashing towards him.
At such close range, there was no ti to dodge.
Garp quickly crossed his arms in front of him to block it.
The next mont.
"BAM!!"
A heavy impact resounded as Garp was sent flying by Kaido's tail, hurtling towards the edge of the plaza.
"BOOM!!"
An earth-shattering explosion erupted, comparable to the detonation of a massive bomb.
The sheer sound of it was enough to make people cover their ears.
A terrifying hurricane swept through the area like the rough hand of an invisible giant, rcilessly ravaging the land.
Houses were completely destroyed, dust filled the air and rocks were sent flying.
"Garp!!" Sengoku and Kong exclaid simultaneously.
They hadn't expected Garp to be sent flying by Kaido in just one attack.
"Our Marine hero, Vice Admiral Garp, has been knocked down by Kaido!"
"Are the Four Emperors really that powerful?"
"..."
The Marines looked at the spot where Garp had crashed, then glanced up at the churning clouds in the sky.
Instantly, the already shocked expressions on their faces turned to utter astonishnt.
Their eyes widened to an extre degree and their jaws dropped to an unbelievable level.
"Look up in the sky, what are those?"
"They look like animals, no! They don't seem like animals! They're monsters!"
"Pitch-black monsters!"
"Goodness, what's going on? Why are there so many of them!"
"..."
The Marines stared in amazent at the monsters descending from the sky.
At that mont, hundreds of black creatures of various shapes were falling toward Marine Headquarters.
So looked like cows, so like wolves, so like bears, and others...
But no matter what animal they resembled, these monsters shared a common trait—their eyes glowed red.
Their bodies seed as if forged from refined iron, gleaming with a tallic sheen under the sun.
Their size was several tis larger than ordinary animals, with muscles bulging unnaturally.
Compared to their bodies, their proportions were incredibly disproportionate, reaching an unimaginable scale.
Not only the Marines but even the pirates were now visibly shaken.
People stared at the descending black monsters, montarily stunned.
However, in the next mont, their expressions turned to excitent.
Because the landing point of these monsters was the Marines' plaza.
"BOOM!!"
In less than a mont, all the monsters had landed on the plaza.
"Damn it! What the hell are these things!" The Marines' faces turned grim.
While in the air, they could only see the monsters' appearances.
But now that these monsters stood beside them, they felt an overwhelming sense of pressure.
"Quick, open fire!" As soon as the words were spoken, the Marines' expressions hardened and they raised their rifles, continuously pulling the triggers at the black monsters.
In an instant, the plaza erupted with intense gunfire.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!!" Under the Marines' barrage, the sound of tal clashing rang out.
The black monsters seed to be clad in iron armor, sparks flying everywhere, but the bullets couldn't penetrate it.
Gradually, the Marines' gunfire slowed, becoming more sporadic until it finally ceased.
Because they realized that after descending from the sky, these black monsters stood completely still, like statues.
"What's going on! Why aren't these things moving!"
"This is too bizarre!" The Marines stared at the black monsters before them, utterly perplexed.
Under such heavy fire, there was no reaction from the monster at all—it was kinda scary.
However, just at that mont, the figure of Shiki suddenly appeared in mid-air, holding a cigar in one hand and a wooden bell in the other.
In the next second, with a flick of his wrist, a crisp sound of wooden bells rang out.
"Ding Ding Ding."
