Boom boom boom boom boom...
The rumbling sounds echoed incessantly.
This time, it was no longer just a matter of crashing through a few buildings.
Even the towering trees used to mark regions on Sabaody Archipelago, the most conspicuous landmarks, were broken by the impact. If Kizaru hadn't forcefully stopped his momentum, the collision would have been unstoppable!
"Woah..."
Kizaru's body slammed into a giant tree, then slid weakly to the ground. He immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, knelt on one knee, clutched his ribs, and cold sweat streamed down his face. "This is bad... this is really bad..."
The pretentious expression on Kizaru's face was gone, replaced by a tense and grave look.
He had already used his Devil Fruit Awakening's enhanced abilities, significantly increasing both his speed and strength... Yet, even so, Ye Jia was still able to react easily and counterattack directly!
He looked up at the collapsing buildings and the broken, burning towering trees that were crashing down with a rumble... Kizaru felt the surging battle intent, which had been dormant in his heart for a long time, rise again.
"It seems I really have to take this seriously now... To be underestimated like this and even injured, Sentomaru and the others will surely laugh at me when I get back!"
A chilling glint appeared in Kizaru's eyes as he removed his Toad Glasses. Unparalleled aura surged out. At this moment, Kizaru seemed like a different person. Photons faintly flickered around and beneath his feet.
His combat power had completely broken through the Admiral level described in One Piece!
In his current state, neither Akainu nor Aokiji would be his opponents!
This powerful and terrifying individual, who had never known defeat and had been hidden among the Three Admirals, finally revealed his true nature!
Whoosh!
This time, his speed reached its limit, and he reappeared before Ye Jia in a blink of an eye.
[Yasakani no Magatama]
He quickly tapped his fingers eight times in the void. Instantly, eight light points appeared in a circle, like spinning machine guns, frantically shooting out orange-red light points!
"Hm? How is Kizaru different from before? Is it because he's not wearing his Toad Glasses?"
Ye Jia once again condensed a green barrier.
However, this time, the orange-red light points ignored the green barrier, piercing directly through it and rushing towards Ye Jia!
"Able to pass through a barrier? It seems he really is different!"
Ye Jia's body instantly transformed into photons, dodging the orange-red light points while simultaneously appearing beside Kizaru and kicking out.
Bang!
Kizaru also raised his leg, and their feet met in mid-air, creating a massive, powerful explosion.
"Kizaru, so your strength is this formidable. Is it fun hiding it all this time?"
Ye Jia laughed heartily while continuing to kick.
"With great power comes great responsibility... Becoming an Admiral is already troublesome enough; going higher would only be more trouble!"
"Why don't you surrender? I'm afraid if this drags on too long, everyone will find out my true capabilities."
Even though Kizaru had become serious, he still maintained his playful and teasing style, continuing to joke while deflecting Ye Jia's attacks.
"I said, if you weren't representing the World Nobles, winning or losing wouldn't matter... But you are standing with the World Nobles now, so even if I die... I absolutely cannot lose!"
"But I can satisfy you. Since you don't want to drag this out, I'll grant your wish!"
Ye Jia burst out laughing, kicking out, and a beam of light shot forth.
Kizaru swiftly dodged, and at some unknown moment, a light orb appeared in his hand, which he immediately tossed into the sky.
[Yata no Kagami]
The light orb shattered, and then photons poured down like goose feathers.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Everything touched instantly erupted in a violent explosion.
"They're insane... both of them are insane! This terrifying battle will destroy the entire Sabaody Archipelago!"
The aftermath of Ye Jia and Kizaru's battle swept wildly, and the Supernovas were scared out of their wits.
This level of warfare had completely exceeded their limit for observation!
"Hey, I'll leave him to you. If anything happens to the esteemed World Nobles, you know the consequences, right?"
Suddenly, Kizaru appeared before them, throwing Saint Charlos directly at their feet... Poor Saint Charlos had no idea he was being tossed around like trash after he passed out. If he knew, Saint Charlos would surely go berserk!
After Kizaru finished speaking, his figure vanished.
The rumbling sounds echoed again, and explosions continued to erupt.
The Supernovas looked at the unconscious Saint Charlos at their feet, exchanging glances.
"Don't hesitate, take him and run!"
Scratchmen Apoo urgently said.
"That scum, a World Noble, I don't want to touch him!"
Jewelry Bonney said with disgust.
"Kizaru said that to you, it has nothing to do with me."
Capone Bege walked straight past.
No one wanted to bother with that scum, the World Noble, those "Descendants of the Creators" or whatever. From Saint Charlos, they saw no demeanor or conduct befitting the descendant of a god... only arrogance, conceitedness, looking down on everyone, and disdain!
"Let's go."
Just then, Zoro stepped forward, hoisted Saint Charlos onto his shoulder, and quickly ran forward.
The remaining Supernovas exchanged glances, then followed Zoro, leaving the area.
Kizaru and Ye Jia's great battle was still ongoing. Meanwhile, on the other side, in Area 1.
The famous Human Trafficking Auction House, which the Marines called the "Job Placement Center."
"Ahhh! Camie~~~~ I'm coming to save you!"
Boom!
With a massive sound of a wall being broken, a huge Flying Fish crashed into the Human Trafficking Auction House.
"Can't you land a little more steadily?"
"Ah! Camie!!! I finally found you! That's great!"
Wearing a red vest, with messy black short hair, blue capri jeans, and a world-renowned Straw Hat, he was the most prominent figure among the pirates, the Supernova who struck fear into countless hearts Monkey D. Luffy!
