"Enough talk—fight if you want to fight!"
With a thunderous roar, Caesar swung his own fist in response!
The two golden fists, still ters apart, compressed the air between them into a thin film before the atmosphere detonated violently.
The ice beneath their feet shattered, fissures spreading for over a kiloter!
BOOM!
Caesar's colossal golden bone-spiked fist was wreathed in dense Armant Haki, with twisting Conqueror's Haki lightning snaking like gnarled roots, shattering the void wherever it passed!
anwhile, Garp's massive golden fist not only cloaked in suprely thick Armant Haki but also erupting with dazzling golden shockwaves!
The mont the two golden giants clashed, it was like detonating millions of tons of explosives—the stalemate instantly exploded into chaos.
Akainu followed Garp into battle without hesitation!
"Scarlet Anubis!"
Crimson magma gushed forth as Akainu's body rapidly expanded, transforming into a towering magma giant with a jackal's head.
Molten rock flowed in his grasp, forming a searing halberd!
Swinging the blazing weapon, Akainu unleashed a scorching pillar of magma straight at Kaido!
"Wororororo! Akainu, you're quite skilled at picking a fight with the wounded, but I'm nowhere near as bad as Whitebeard!"
Kaido's body swelled violently as dragon scales erupted across his skin, his demonic horns morphing into draconic spikes.
His legs bent into clawed limbs while his spiked club erupted with thunderous lightning, smashing the magma pillar into a rain of fire.
"Thunder Bagua!"
"Issho! Split the battlefield!" Kizaru's killing intent flared as he barked at Fujitora beside him.
"Leave it to ! Gravity Blade: Repel! Fierce Tiger!"
Fujitora gripped his cane-sword and slashed horizontally through the air several tis.
"HUM—!"
A terrifying repulsive force erupted from the void, making everyone present pale.
The Marines offered no resistance, allowing Fujitora's repulsion to take full effect.
But Caesar's forces erupted with power, struggling against the gravitational pull.
"Hera! Protheus! Napoleon! Combined strike!"
Linlin's Conqueror's Haki surged violently as the massive blade Napoleon swung with the force of a thousand mountains, wreathed in endless lightning and flas.
The slash tore through space itself, aiming straight for Fujitora!
"Motherly Cannon: Three Thousand Miles!"
Blinding thunder and raging fire rampaged across the ice, transforming into countless rampaging lightning dragons and fire serpents that nearly drowned the Admirals.
"What a violent woman... Forest Awakening! Domain of Life!"
Ryokugyu's eyes glead sharply as she crouched and slamd her palm onto the ground.
"BOOM—!"
With an earth-shaking roar, the ice beneath Linlin shattered as a primordial tree dozens of ters thick erupted, catapulting her and Napoleon towards the sky like a cannonball!
Seizing the mont, Aramaki lunged after her, her blade sheathed in Haki flashing toward Linlin's throat like lightning.
The unluckiest of all was Ganzui.
Compared to Caesar and the others, his physique was leagues inferior.
At seventy years old, Ganzui was three years older than Newgate.
Had it not been for news of Caesar's resurgence, Ganzui would have remained in hiding in the North Blue until his death.
The truth was, Ganzui harbored an intense craving for Caesar's blood.
Like Redfield, he suffered from the weakening effects of age—though his combat prowess remained largely intact, his stamina had drastically declined, leaving him unable to sustain prolonged battles...
And in Ganzui's eyes, only Caesar's oni blood could restore his youthful vigor.
Under Fujitora's repulsive force, Ganzui was the first to lose his footing, hurled hundreds of ters away like a ragdoll.
"Straw Hat Luffy, do you know why I repeatedly let you go during the Summit War?"
Kizaru looked at Luffy, speaking slowly as he stretched out his hands.
A slender black-and-gold light sword materialized, radiating intense energy waves.
Luffy clenched his fists without responding, but the hair on his head rapidly turned pale white, wisps of white flas beginning to rise from it.
"Because I respect your grandfather. Your grandfather Garp, though he may seem unreliable at tis, is one of the few in this world who genuinely upholds justice and protects this broken world. And you? Ti and again, you turn a blind eye to others' well-intentioned advice."
Kizaru, wielding a black-light longsword, transford his body into a beam of light, shooting straight toward Luffy!
"Kuzan also spared you multiple tis out of respect for your grandfather. Just a brat obsessed with becoming a pirate, yet sohow, different people always show up to save you—Dragon, Bartholow kuma, Rayleigh, Sabo. Heh, let's see who'll co to your rescue when you face that monster Caesar! Kusanagi Sword!"
Kizaru's body turned into a streak of light, moving as fast as teleportation.
In an instant, he appeared before Luffy, slashing rcilessly at his neck, aiming to decapitate him in one strike.
"Gear Fourth: Snake Man!"
Luffy's muscles rapidly expanded and twisted, transforming into a lean, formidable form.
Jet-black Armant Haki materialized into dark patterns across his body—looking undeniably cool!
His flip-flops flew off as his feet propelled him across the ice, his body vanishing from Kizaru's slash in an instant.
"Gomu Gomu no... Red Hawk!"
A blaze of colored flas surged skyward, his arm wreathed in black Haki.
His rubbery body stretched endlessly as his fist stirred the winds, unleashing a storm of Conqueror's Haki-infused lightning!
Swish!
Yet Luffy's devastating punch found only empty air.
Kizaru refused to engage directly, instead vanishing from sight with his unparalleled speed.
"Yata no kagami! Gamma Laser Beam!"
Kizaru reappeared in the distance, his black-light sword rging between his palms into a dark-gold mirror.
In an instant, a massive laser beam erupted!
BOOM!
The laser struck with blinding speed, blasting Luffy hundreds of ters away.
"Gah! Damn it, that hurts! What kind of power is this?"
Luffy looked down at his chest—where the laser had hit, the flesh was charred black.
The bizarre light seed to pierce even his Haki defenses.
Pale solar flas enveloped his body as his heart drumd the rhythm of liberation.
His blood surged, rapidly healing his wounds.
Kizaru's expression remained cold and unreadable as he fired another devastating laser beam.
Ever since his defeat by Katakuri, Kizaru had reflected deeply.
He realized he shouldn't let arrogance blind him—his abilities were already formidable, so why insist on close combat?
The speed, power, and range of his Pika Pika no Mi were top-tier.
Now, with the even more destructive Gamma Laser Beam—discovered by chance—his offensive capabilities had reached new heights.
With extre range and overwhelming firepower, Kizaru only needed to evade his opponent's attacks, retreat to a safe distance, and blast their head off from miles away!
No more pretenses!
From now on, Kizaru would fight as a true long-range mage!
