Zhan Guo's expression changed drastically, and he was about to retreat.

Roy's figure appeared before Sengoku in an instant, like a blue lightning bolt.

With his right palm pressed against Sengoku's chest, a surge of spiritual energy poured into Sengoku's body like a torrent.

"Soul Impact".

Sengoku felt as if his soul was about to leave his body from the force of that palm strike.

His consciousness momentarily wavered, the golden Buddha light completely extinguished in that instant, and the form of the miniature Buddha collapsed directly.

If it weren't for his decades of honed willpower, this blow would have been enough to send his soul flying out of his body.

Roy raised his hand and placed it on Sengoku's head, intending to test whether he could deal with Green Bull by directly extracting Sengoku's soul.

Garp pounced from behind Roy, his fist aimed at the back of Roy's head.

Roy had no choice but to give up and pointed a finger at Garp's fist.

The awakened soul power flowed from Roy's fingertips into Garp's arm.

Karp felt his arm go numb instantly.

Immediately afterwards, Roy turned and delivered a roundhouse kick, hitting Garp in the chest. Garp was sent flying, crashing into two boulders before coming to a stop.

Roy, fighting two opponents at once, completely overwhelmed them.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, the battle between Kaido and Luffy has also reached a fever pitch.

Luffy's awakened form is indeed powerful.

Kaido's fluid, rubbery body rendered many of his attacks ineffective.

The dragon's claws slammed down and were deflected, the dragon's tail swept past and were deflected, and even when the heat breath was blasted at Luffy, his body inflated into a ball and rolled away.

Luffy's attacks are becoming increasingly unpredictable.

He can turn himself into a slingshot to launch stones, pull his hair up to dodge attacks, and stretch his cheeks into a rubber shield.

This fighting style, which completely deviates from conventional combat logic, left Kaido temporarily overwhelmed.

But Kaido is Kaido after all.

He fought in the New World for decades, battling monsters like Roger and Whitebeard.

Although Luffy's fighting style is novel, it is essentially still the application of rubber powers.

Kaido gradually adapted to this rhythm during the ongoing battles.

Luffy's fist slammed into Kaido's chest, and Kaido took the hit head-on, then retaliated with a powerful strike that landed on Luffy's stomach.

Although the spot where Luffy was hit automatically softened, the pain still lingered.

The smile on his face was gradually replaced by seriousness.

After awakening, Luffy's stamina consumption accelerated dramatically.

His highly active cellular metabolism keeps him in a state of high-speed operation at all times, like a machine with its engine running at full speed.

It is constantly draining Luffy's life force.

The longer it drags on, the more likely his body will be unable to keep up with the pace.

Kaido was panting heavily, but a smile crept across his face:

"Kid, you're very strong, but you don't know how to use it!"

Luffy gritted his teeth, about to retort, but was swept away by Kaido's dragon tail.

The battle between King and Fujitora was equally intense.

Fujitora's Gravity Fruit continued to increase the pressure, while King's Flame Blade launched a frenzied counterattack. The battle between the two made the entire hall tremble precariously.

As Jin's Pteranodon form changed angles constantly in the air, his flaming blades slashing in from all sorts of tricky angles;

Fujitora's gravity field is like a giant vortex, twisting, deflecting, and neutralizing all approaching attacks.

The battle between the Straw Hat Pirates and the Beast Pirates' executives was equally intense.

However, the number of Straw Hat Alliance members who are still capable of fighting is dwindling.

Zoro and Sanji can still hold on, and Kid and Law can still fight, but the others are almost at their limit.

The balance of power on the battlefield has clearly tipped in favor of Roy and Kaido.

Sengoku was forced back by Roy's soul slash and stood back to back with Garp.

Both of them were injured.

There was still blood on Sengoku's lips, and Garp's right arm hung down unnaturally, still not feeling anything.

Sengoku lowered his voice: "Garp, we can't fight anymore."

Karp did not answer.

He glanced in Luffy's direction, then looked at Zoro and the others who were being suppressed by the Beast Pirates' executives, his expression changing several times.

If the fighting continues, everyone will perish here.

Sengoku repeated himself, his voice even more urgent: "Retreat first, we'll deal with rescuing Green Bull later."

Garp remained silent for a long time.

Then he nodded.

Fujitora also moved closer to the two amidst the chaos.

His Observation Haki sensed Sengoku and Garp's determination, and the gravity ripples on his cane began to spread towards the edge of the battlefield, preparing for a retreat.

The three quickly coordinated their actions.

Suddenly, a golden Buddhist light shone brightly in the Warring States period, and with a powerful Buddhist palm strike, he forced Roy back.

The golden light blew away all the surrounding ruins, and the shockwave forced Roy back a few steps.

Garp unleashed a Galaxy Impact punch at Kaido, causing Conqueror's Haki to explode in mid-air, distracting Kaido who was locked in combat with Luffy.

Taking advantage of the moment when Roy and Kaido were held back by this final burst of power, Fujitora activated the Gravity Fruit with all his might.

The three quickly moved towards the Straw Hat Pirates.

When Sengoku landed in front of the Straw Hat Pirates, Luffy was still with Kaido.

He was sent flying by Kaido's club, his body bounced twice on the ruins, then he somersaulted up and charged forward again.

"Straw Hat Boy!"

Zhan Guo called out to him, golden Buddhist light flickering behind him, his voice urgent:

"Evacuate with us!"

Luffy refused without even thinking:

"I'm not leaving! I haven't finished fighting yet!"

He turned and charged at Kaido again.

Karp grabbed him.

The huge, iron-like hand grabbed Luffy's shoulder with such force that Luffy was momentarily stunned.

"Luffy".

Garp's voice was deep and serious, completely different from his usual rage.

Luffy stopped and turned to look at his grandfather.

Garp didn't look at him, but looked behind him.

Luffy turned his head in the direction of Garp's gaze.

The Straw Hat Pirates were all in a terrible state.

Everyone is barely holding on.

Garp's voice struck Luffy's heart like a hammer:

"Can they hold on?"

Are you going to kill them all because of a moment of anger?

Luffy opened his mouth.

He wanted to say "It's possible," "If we all work together, we can definitely do it," and "We won't lose."

But those words got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a single one.

He saw Nami and Chopper's tears.

I noticed Zoro and Sanji's silence.

I saw Usopp's trembling legs.

For the first time in battle, Luffy showed a hesitant expression.

He lowered his head, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His white hair obscured his face, so his expression was hidden.

Law stood beside him and whispered, "As long as Luffy is alive, there's hope."

Luffy did not answer.

In the distance, Kaido steadied himself, carrying the Eight Disasters Rings, and strode towards them with a grin.

"Why are you running! Weren't you going to beat me to a pulp?!"

Roy stood behind Kaido, his azure soul aura receding, but his gaze remained fixed on them.

Fujitora did not hesitate.

The blind man slammed his cane heavily on the ground.

The Gravity Fruit was activated at full power.

The surrounding rubble and ruins floated up and coalesced into a huge rock beneath their feet.

The rock slowly rose into the air, carrying everyone away from the ground.
