One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

With Jin's command given, the three calamities and six foes quickly assembled.

The atmosphere in the square suddenly became somber.

Meanwhile, deep within Oni Island, Roy pulled a Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

After a few rings of the "Bruburu" sound, the Den Den Mushi was connected.

"Hello!"

"Roy?"

Barrett's gruff voice came through the Den Den Mushi, accompanied by the sound of synchronized chants in the background, clearly indicating that training was underway.

"What's up? I'm training right now!"

"Let's stop for a moment."

"Tell me, how many generals are still at bases G-1 and G-2?"

"general?"

Barrett paused for a moment, then there were several loud clanging sounds of metal clashing, probably from him throwing away the forging equipment he was holding.

"I don't know! We just fought them a while ago. Kizaru showed up once in G-2, but then disappeared."

Akainu also testified at G-1. "They're all just a bunch of weaklings anyway; not even one of them can take a punch from me!"

"very good!"

"Barrett!"

"Currently, Sengoku, Garp, Fujitora, and Green Bull—all four Admiral-level fighters—are in Wano Country."

There's currently a vacuum of admirals at the naval base.

There was a full three seconds of silence on Barrett's end.

Then a deafening burst of laughter came from the Den Den Mushi.

"Hahahaha! Does that mean the naval base is empty now?"

"almost."

"What are we waiting for! I'm going to demolish Base G-1 right now!"

"Not just G-1."

Roy's tone now carried an unquestionable air of captain's authority.

"The goal is to take down both G-1 and G-2 together."

They took Tesoro, Crocodile, Hawkeye—all the core members—and split into two groups.

I'll show the navy what the price is for raiding our base when we're not looking.

"Okay, okay!"

Barrett's voice was filled with long-suppressed excitement, and his roars could already be heard in the background.

"Everyone assemble! We have something important to do!"

After hanging up, Roy dialed Stella's number again.

"Stella, notify the entire Beehive Island to enter a state of combat readiness."

The entire intelligence network was activated, closely monitoring every move of the Navy Headquarters.

"Inform me immediately if Akainu shows any sign of transferring troops from Marine Headquarters."

Stella's voice remained as calm as ever:

"clear.

In addition, Dr. Gracia said that the replication of the second batch of Azure Dragon Fruits has entered a critical stage, and you need to personally inspect it upon your return.

"Let them continue, and replicate the other fruits as well."

"Then be careful."

"rest assured."

After arranging everything, Roy stood up and dusted off his trench coat.

He walked to the window and looked at the two terrifying auras that had begun to collide above Ghost Island.

The first direct confrontation between Kaido and Garp has broken out, with the Azure Dragon's breath and Garp's iron fist exploding in mid-air in a blinding burst of fire.

In the direction of the square, Jin had already led his officers to form a battle formation.

Sengoku, Fujitora, and Green Bull were rapidly approaching from the edge of Onigashima, and the aura emanating from them made the air in the plaza feel heavier.

Meanwhile, on the Straw Hat Alliance's side, Yamato was still blocking their way. Although Zoro, Sanji, Kid, and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates were fighting with all their might, they were still unable to break through Yamato's defenses in a short time.

"This battle needs to be fought seriously."

Roy pushed open the side door of the main hall.

The night wind, carrying the smell of gunpowder and blood, rushed towards him, making his black trench coat flutter loudly.

Roy leaped directly from the windowsill, using his telekinesis to support his body, and flew towards the square in mid-air as a black shadow.

The moonlight shone on him, casting a long shadow.

··········

Above the ghost island.

Kaido's blue dragon form coiled among the clouds, casting a shadow that shrouded the entire Skull Palace in darkness.

The dragon's whiskers swayed gently in the night breeze, and its vertical pupils reflected the figure soaring into the sky below.

"Kaido—!!!"

Garp's roar echoed throughout Onigashima, and anyone could hear the anger in his voice.

Kaido lowered his dragon head slightly, his vertical pupils locked onto the approaching figure.

"Long time no see, Garp."

Kaido's dragon mouth split into a ferocious arc.

"Are you here to see your grandson?"

Karp did not answer.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his wrinkled face was filled with suppressed rage.

He only wants to know one thing right now.

Where's Luffy?

Karp's voice was hoarse, as if it were being squeezed from deep within his throat.

"I'm asking you, where is Luffy?!"

"That kid in the straw hat?"

Kaido chuckled softly.

The dragon's teeth gleamed with a chilling luster under the moonlight, and a reddish-orange light churned deep within its throat.

His voice was full of malicious mockery, every word like a knife deliberately stabbing Garp in the heart.

"Of course I beat him to death."

Before the words had even finished, the dragon's mouth opened wide.

"Heat Breath—!!!"

A pillar of orange-red fire erupted from the dragon's mouth, carrying devastating heat as it hurtled towards Garp.

"You bastard! You deserve to die!"

Garp's wrinkled face showed no fear, no hesitation, only rage.

"Buzz~"

Clenched right fist.

A profound and incomparable Armament Haki surged from his fist, followed by a burst of black and red Conqueror's Haki lightning that spread wildly in all directions like tree roots.

Galaxy Impact.

He threw a punch.

The shockwave from the punch tore the pillar of flames apart. It didn't just block it; it ripped it open—splitting the pillar of fire in two, the flames splitting to either side and exploding into two blinding bursts of light in the night sky.

The shockwave, still powerful, slammed into Kaido's dragon body after passing through the pillar of fire.

Kaido's nearly thousand-meter-long blue dragon body was sent flying backward by this punch.

The dragon's body tumbled several times in the air before crashing down on top of the Skull Palace once more.

The dome of the Skull Palace collapsed in large sections under the impact of this enormous force, and rubble rained down from above, kicking up clouds of dust.

"cough--"

Kaido crawled out of the ruins, having transformed back into his human-beast form.

He reached up and wiped his mouth, his fingertips stained with a dark red blood.

He looked at the bloodstain and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hehehehe—that's more like it!"

But Garp didn't give Kaido a chance to breathe.

With each step he took, he moved closer like a ghost.

His speed was so fast that even Observation Haki could only catch a blurry afterimage.

He punched Kaido in the face with his left fist.

Before Kaido could react, his right fist had already slammed into his abdomen.

Kaido leaned forward, intending to retaliate, but Garp turned and struck Kaido in the chest with an elbow, crushing his attempt to fight back.

Unpretentious.

Garp's punches have no fancy special effects or dazzling move names; they are just the purest form of punches.

But every punch he threw was imbued with the domineering aura he had honed over decades, and every punch precisely struck Kaido's vital points.

Every punch landed squarely, each blow causing Kaido's steel-like body to dent slightly.

Each attack caused Kaido to involuntarily take a step back.

Kaido took several steps back, each step leaving a deep footprint on the stone slab.

His back slammed into a broken stone pillar, which snapped in half, sending rubble crashing down.
