He was not as the Five Elders guessed—that El relied on the power of the Devil Fruit.
Instead, he relied on the power of the Multiplicative Strength Enhancement Experience Card.
However, as the Five Elders suspected, this experience card does have a time limit.
But… it's a full hour!
An hour to defeat a Five Elder, El thought, is quite easy to accomplish.
"Then let's give it a try!!"
The old man wielding a knife snorted coldly.
Although El's current strength was almost completely crushing him, the old man with the knife, after all, had hundreds of years of combat experience.
Even if he couldn't win, he could resist tenaciously.
The two's attacks kept clashing, each impact causing enormous destruction around them.
The fight was like a demolition team, and it didn't last long.
Buildings within several hundred meters around the area were shattered into ruins by their attacks.
The sword in El's hand— is not only an Ultimate Great Cleaver but also a demon sword.
More importantly, this sword is a Black Sword!!!
The so-called Black Sword is a sword continuously wrapped in Haki for battle.
Over time, Haki permanently envelops the sword's blade, giving it the power of Haki!
Across the entire world, strong warriors with great swordsmanship are few and far between.
And those with a Black Sword are extremely rare!
This alone proves the rarity and terror of the Black Sword.
At the same time, the sword in El's hand is called Eclipse.
As the name suggests, Eclipse is meant to slay the Celestial Dragons who call themselves gods from above.
El speculates that when Rocks was searching for a sword back then, he deliberately chose Eclipse.
His goal was to kill all the Celestial Dragons in the world, overthrow the rule of the World Government, and become the ruler of the world.
Now that this sword is in El's hands, it's as if he inherited Rocks's will.
Since he's holding Eclipse, today he will show the world the "God" of the Celestial Dragons—slain!
"Slay God!"
El's veins bulge visibly, and then he pours all his Haki into the blade.
In the next second, his aura skyrockets to its peak.
At this moment, he looks like a God-Slayer, exuding an extreme sense of oppression.
It shrouds the hearts of every Five Elder!
"Step!!!"
El's foot stomps forcefully on the ground, and his extreme speed even causes the air to tear with a breaking sound.
Almost instantly, El appears in front of the Five Elder, completing his slash.
"Come on, El!!!"
The old man with the knife roars loudly, wrapping terrifying Haki around his blade as he swings it toward El.
"Boom!!"
When their attacks collide, the Holy Land Mary Geoise seems to have been hit by an atomic bomb.
The intense explosion even spreads to areas several kilometers away.
The ground beneath their feet tears apart dramatically.
The aftershock of their attack causes the terrain to shake and vibrate into the air.
Around them, a tornado-like cloud of smoke and dust completely envelops their figures.
Through the dust, two incredibly imposing figures are fighting with all their might.
...
At this moment, Garp, Sengoku, Zephyr, Tsuru, and countless other top experts from the World Government's CP organization arrive at the battlefield.
"Edward Newgate!"
"This guy's power developed rapidly after the Battle of the Valley of the Gods. Now, his Whitebeard Pirates are one of the most fearsome pirate groups in the New World, second only to Roger's Pirate Crew!"
"However, it seems only he has come, and his crew is not seen."
"This guy is here to die!"
The CP organization members discussed animatedly as they watched Whitebeard's figure.
The first thing Garp noticed upon arriving at the battlefield was Whitebeard, who was engaged in a fight with the scarred old man.
He shouted loudly, "Edward!!"
"Unexpected, it's you invading Mary Geoise!" Sengoku said, quite surprised.
"Edward, you're too stupid! How dare you invade this place?" Zephyr sneered at Whitebeard's figure.
"Garp, Sengoku, Zephyr?"
Whitebeard, fighting the Five Elders, also noticed the four of them.
His expression immediately turned extremely serious.
Although he could briefly fight the Five Elders now, he was still at a clear disadvantage.
Moreover, there were three other Five Elders watching from nearby with a predatory gaze.
Just these five Five Elders alone were enough to make him drink a pot with El.
Now, Garp and the others had all gathered here.
"You, after the Battle of the Valley of the Gods, built the Whitebeard Pirates. Why aren't you staying in the New World to develop your own power, but instead coming here to Mary Geoise to die?" Sengoku snorted coldly.
The Whitebeard Pirates, founded by Whitebeard, were famous throughout the entire New World.
Their reputation was among the top in the whole New World.
Sengoku couldn't understand why Whitebeard, instead of staying in the New World, would come to Mary Geoise.
"Really don't know where you got the courage to oppose the Five Elders," Zephyr said with a cold smile.
Everyone could see that Whitebeard, although able to fight the Five Elders, was clearly at a disadvantage.
Whitebeard's strength was not weak now, but he hadn't yet reached his peak!
The Battle of the Valley of the Gods had ended some time ago, and Whitebeard's strength had grown rapidly.
But, at most, he was only in his early thirties.
Most strong people in this pirate world reach their peak between forty and fifty years old!
"Gu la la la… Do we pirates need to report to you first?" Whitebeard sneered.
"Making such a foolish decision could lead to your death, Edward," Sengoku said with a slight smile.
"I don't think so," Whitebeard snorted coldly.
Although the Five Elders are indeed very strong,
Whitebeard doesn't believe he will die here today.
After all, he had survived three top-tier battles: the Battle of Beehive Island, the Battle of Mary Geoise, and the Battle of the Valley of the Gods.
And he had come out alive each time.
Of course… he still believes he can leave alive this time.
Not for anything else, but because El is also here in Mary Geoise!!!
At this moment, Garp suddenly pointed in the direction of El and the old man fighting.
"Anyway, who is over there fighting the Five Elders???"
Because the battle between El and the old man with a knife was now completely shrouded in storm-like dust, Garp could only faintly see that the two were fighting, their offensive constantly unfolding, with the battle intense and evenly matched.
But he couldn't see clearly who they were.
"Can fight the Five Elders to this extent, could it… be Rocks resurrected???" Zephyr said, somewhat surprised.
No one knew the true strength of the Five Elders better than them.
After all, they had spent several years with the Five Elders!
Being able to stand toe-to-toe with the Five Elders in battle, in Zephyr's impression, only Rocks, who unleashed unparalleled power during the Battle of the Valley of the Gods, could be their match!!!
"Resurrected? That's impossible. Rocks was beheaded by Roger; he couldn't have come back to life!" Tsuru said, first stunned, then shook her head slightly.
Although, in this pirate world, some people possess extremely strong vitality and unique physiques.
