Damn it, we've all been played! — a member of the Lance pirate crew angrily punched the ground, filled with resentment.
"No, wait, this news came from that 'intelligence organization'…" another person suddenly thought of something.
"No need to say it, that intelligence organization is also in the same group!" Bober roared angrily. "When I get back, I'll wipe them all out!"
"Alright, enough talk. Things are too chaotic now. Let's prepare to retreat!"
Lance spoke in a deep voice. His eyes flickered, and suddenly he slapped the ground with a palm. "Blood Shadow Escape!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath his feet turned into a thick pool of blood. This blood seemed to have consciousness; it started from his shoes and gradually began to swallow Lance himself.
Not only him, but the other twelve members also experienced the same situation.
Their bodies sank into the ground and quickly disappeared.
As they vanished, the ground returned to its original appearance.
"Huh?"
Above the sky, Vladimir let out a light, questioning sound. "Lance's pirate crew has disappeared… No wonder he's a great pirate, his escape skills are truly top-notch."
He considered whether to pursue them. No matter how fast they ran, they couldn't outrun him.
But after some thought, he decided to give up. With a flick of his mind, a holy light shot out.
This holy light ignored the darkness and directly struck the Kizaru.
This strike wasn't for killing but for pushing.
The entire body of the Kizaru was instantly sent flying by the holy light. In the blink of an eye, he had escaped the eternal dark world.
When he could see clearly again, he found himself outside the center area of the island.
"Where is this?" His expression slightly changed as he looked at a huge dark sphere in front of him.
This black sphere was enormous, covering a radius of over ten thousand meters.
"So that's it. The Great Angel created a barrier-like area. Inside this zone, he is basically a 'god'!"
Kizaru inwardly thought: "No wonder even my Glint-Glint Fruit can't be used."
Just as he was pondering, suddenly a ripple appeared on the distant ground.
Red blood spilled out from beneath the earth.
This blood surged like a fountain, rising high, revealing thirteen figures inside—these were the members of the Lance pirate crew.
"Great General Kizaru!" Lance, just having escaped and not yet relieved, suddenly saw Kizaru's presence: "Damn, he actually found us!"
"Only Kizaru!" Bober snorted coldly. "Captain, he's not that angelic monster. We can repel him and then retreat."
"Only this way…" Lance took a deep breath. With a flick of his hand, a stream of blood wriggled in his palm…
"This is so troublesome. I underestimated him too."
Kizaru crooked his mouth. "I was originally just here to observe the Great Angel's combat power, to prepare for dealing with the Phantom Pirates. Since you've sent yourself to me, as a Navy admiral, I can't just stand by and ignore."
As soon as he finished speaking, his body turned into flickering streams of light and disappeared.
In the next moment, behind Lance, a photon condensed into a shining golden leg, suddenly kicking out.
"Light-speed Kick!"
...
Meanwhile, inside the enormous dark sphere of chaos.
Countless fragments of stones floated and gathered in the sky, slowly condensing.
The pirates first attracted to the sky had no time to escape before being buried by even more stones and debris. Subsequently, a mountain of ice pressed down, crushing countless pirates.
This was literal suppression—buried alive by countless stones and a mountain of ice.
Above the sky, a new landmass formed—no, it would be more accurate to call it an floating island.
Only those with mastery of Observation Haki and strong personal strength could survive.
Mastery of Observation Haki allowed them to "see" the surrounding changes in the eternal darkness, and only the strong could resist the reversal of gravity to dodge the countless falling stones beneath.
In just five minutes, at least eight or nine thousand pirates, mostly, were suppressed inside the floating island and buried alive.
"Phantom!!" Kedark's face was filled with hatred and fury. "My Storm Pirates!"
He was the most heavily damaged. The Unicorn had many members in the ice mountain, so they narrowly escaped disaster, but his Storm Pirates, even some officers, were suppressed.
"I'll kill you!"
Kedark couldn't hold it anymore. Roaring in rage, he transformed into a hurricane and charged toward Vladimir above the floating island.
"Hurricane Vortex!"
Centered on Vladimir, a hurricane swept in, trapping him in a spiral.
Not only that, the hurricane was razor-sharp and slowly closed in, seemingly about to shred Vladimir into pieces.
"…Bumbler."
Vladimir's expression was calm. His eyes flickered, and suddenly, a radiant holy light burst forth.
"God says, there is no wind or waves in the world!"
In an instant, the wind ceased!
"What...?!"
As the hurricane stopped, Kedark's true form was exposed. He was horrified to find that he could no longer control the wind elements.
Vladimir's six wings spread from his back, and his tone was divine: "Within the realm of holy light, divine language rules everything. You'd better save yourself."
