In the plaza before Pangaea Castle, the Five Elders looked up at the Rocks Fleet hovering high in the sky.
The giant boar transformed by Saint Topman Warcury spoke:
"Rocks—you have some nerve, daring to invade Mary Geoise!"
On the flagship, Rocks crossed his arms and laughed heartily.
"Mary Geoise? The Holy Land? The so-called World Nobles, the Celestial Dragons..."
His smile suddenly turned cold, his tone filled with disdain and mockery:
"In the end, they're nothing but a bunch of bloodsucking swine."
"Outrageous—!!"
The Five Elders roared in unison.
They were enraged.
The giant boar transformed by Saint Warcury was the first to strike!
It let out a skyward roar, its sound waves infused with even more refined and violent Conqueror's Haki!
Dark red, lightning-like Haki surged upward, directly assaulting the fleet suspended in the air!
Immediately after, the other four Elders released their own Conqueror's Haki.
The five Conqueror's Haki impacts converged mid-air, merging into a crimson torrent over a hundred meters in diameter. Carrying the momentum to destroy everything in its path, it charged straight toward the Rocks Fleet!
"Hmph."
Rocks sneered.
The next second—
Hum—!!!
An overwhelmingly powerful, domineering Conqueror's Haki erupted from his body!
Dark red flames shot into the sky.
And almost at the same moment—
Raiver Sky stepped forward, a flash of red light gleaming in his crimson eyes.
His Conqueror's Haki was released, causing the entire space to tremble.
Centered around him, the surrounding space began to distort, fold, and crack, with dark red spatial fissures spreading like a spiderweb.
Whitebeard let out a booming laugh, planting his Cloud Cutter on the deck as his Conqueror's Haki surged forth like a tsunami.
Golden Lion Shiki cackled wildly as he drew his twin swords, golden Conqueror's Haki soaring into the air.
Charlotte Linlin stood atop Thundercloud Zeus, her purple Conqueror's Haki sweeping out like a tangible storm.
Five against five.
In an instant, the Conqueror's Haki from both sides clashed violently in mid-air!
Dark red thunderbolts exploded across the sky!
Countless thick electric serpents danced wildly, entangled, and tore through the air, emitting sizzling, crackling roars.
The entire sky over Mary Geoise changed color.
The clash lasted a full ten seconds.
Then—
Crack!
A sound like shattering glass rang out.
The Five Elders' five Conqueror's Haki impacts were utterly crushed!
Rocks grinned ferociously and issued the final attack order:
"Except for the core officers, the rest of you, go deal with those troublesome God's Knights!"
Since successfully capturing the Celestial Dragons and severely injuring an Admiral, Raiver Sky had been officially promoted by Rocks to a core officer.
Officers like Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, and John entered Mary Geoise through the Space Gate before them.
Clearly, this Space Gate on the flagship was not paired with the one in the plaza before Pangaea Castle.
"Gyahahaha... The Five Elders, huh? I've been wanting to test just how much weight the so-called world's highest authority carries!"
Before Golden Lion Shiki's wild laughter faded, he activated his Float-Float Fruit ability, launching himself from the fleet like a golden cannonball.
His target was the burning monstrous bird in the sky—Saint Marcus Mars.
"That fire-breathing mongrel bird—is mine!"
Shiki hovered mid-air, his twin blades "Cherry Ten" and "Withered Tree" already drawn, golden Advanced Armament Haki swirling like flames along their edges.
Crossing his arms over his chest, he unleashed a fierce slash—
"Wave Cut—!!!"
A dazzling golden cross-shaped slash tore through the sky, aimed directly at Saint Marcus Mars!
Saint Mars let out a piercing shriek, flapping his blazing wings as he fearlessly charged forward.
His beak opened wide, unleashing a scorching pillar of fire that collided violently with the golden cross slash mid-air!
"Gurararara… I'm going in!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily as he leaped down from the ship's bow.
Gripping the Supreme Grade Sharp Blade "Cloud Cutter" with both hands, he focused a milky-white spherical tremor aura around its edge.
His target was the most conspicuous giant boar—Saint Topman Warcury!
"Take this!"
Whitebeard swung his blade down through the air, the space around it groaning under unbearable pressure!
Warcury in his Fengxi Form let out a deep roar, charging forward without retreat.
His two massive tusks, coated in Advanced Armament Haki, slammed fiercely against the descending Cloud Cutter!
Clang—!!!
Blade and tusks collided with tremendous force!
The cataclysmic power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit clashed head-on with the primal strength of the Fengxi Form.
The point of impact erupted in blinding light, space cracking like shattered glass, spiderweb fractures spreading visibly.
For a moment, Haki and shockwaves erupted violently, the ground collapsing in layers, the resulting shockwave cracking distant building walls!
Just as Whitebeard and the giant boar were locked in their struggle—
Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro moved!
His Horse Bone Form granted him extreme speed.
Four bone hooves burning with spectral flames shattered the ground as he teleported instantly behind Whitebeard's undefended back!
The Demon Blade "First Generation Ghost Cutter" in his hand was shrouded in dark red Conqueror's Haki and Advanced Armament Haki.
A lethal strike from the outset!
Whitebeard seemed to sense it, preparing to divert his attention to defend—
"Your opponent… is me." A calm voice cut through as Raiver Sky instantly appeared before Saint Nusjuro.
Raiver Sky's Supreme Grade Sharp Blade "Black Dragon" was already drawn, its edge similarly wreathed in boiling Advanced Armament Haki and dark red Conqueror's Haki.
Striking later but arriving first, it met the oncoming First Generation Ghost Cutter!
Clang—!!!
The two blades collided with a deafening roar!
Dark red lightning erupted and splattered wildly at the point of impact.
Two equally powerful Haki forces clashed fiercely, the resulting shockwave scraping away another layer of the surrounding ground.
"Gurararara… Thanks, kid Raiver!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, his mind now free of worries.
He continued exerting force with his right hand gripping Cloud Cutter, maintaining the deadlock against the giant boar's tusks.
Meanwhile, his free left hand rose, a milky-white tremor aura condensing around his fist once more.
Even more violent dark red Conqueror's Haki Coating enveloped it, making the fist seem to clutch a dark red sun ready to explode!
"Hah—!!"
Whitebeard roared, his left fist—concentrated with Tremor-Tremor Power and Conqueror's Haki Coating—slammed mercilessly onto the Fengxi Form boar's head!
Boom! Crack—!!!
Space shattered like a mirror, countless clear fractures exploding outward from the point of impact.
The terrifying force pierced through the Ryuo defense on the giant boar's surface, reaching directly into its skull!
The giant boar let out a pained, muffled roar as its massive body was forcibly driven toward the ground by this unstoppable punch.
Whitebeard pressed his advantage without mercy, gripping Cloud Cutter tightly with both hands once more.
Seizing the moment when the giant boar was off-balance and its power faltered, the blade wrapped in Tremor and Haki came slashing down again!
The giant boar, transformed from Saint Warcury, hastily raised its tusks to block. Shockwaves and Haki clashed violently once more, but it was clear he had lost the initiative and fallen into a passive position.
