He roared and suddenly raised his right arm, the molten lava churning and boiling at the knuckles, radiating a scorching heat.
Lava dripped down his arm, scorching black holes in the stone slab, and the air itself was distorted and rippled by the intense heat.
"A massive fire eruption—!"
Akainu's fist slammed out, and a blazing magma fist shot out from his body, heading straight for the oncoming shadow monster like a meteor!
Magma and darkness —
fiery and profound—
Two completely opposite forces collided violently in mid-air!
Chapter 219 Rescue of All Members
Rumble—!!!
The deafening explosion shook the entire Marineford region. The shockwave spread wildly in all directions from the point of impact, and the resulting blast knocked nearby soldiers to the ground. Debris and dust flew everywhere like a torrential downpour.
The lava exploded on the surface of the shadow, scorching large areas of charred marks, but the shadow monster seemed to have no physical form. The shattered parts were quickly filled and repaired by newly emerging shadows, and it continued to advance.
Akainu's expression changed.
"Damn it! When did that bastard Moria become so strong!?"
"Hehehehehe—"
Moriah's laughter continued.
The laughter carried a wild and unrestrained joy that had been suppressed for countless years, as if it were about to pour out all the pent-up frustration and resentment of those years.
He hadn't experienced that thrill of being publicly displayed for so many years!
Since being defeated by the Beasts Pirates in the "New World" and losing all his subordinates, Moria has been like a stray dog, huddled in the thick fog of the Devil's Triangle, barely surviving on a false reputation and the shadow he picked up.
He had almost forgotten—
He forgot that he was once a great pirate who rivaled Kaido;
They forgot that they were once a powerful force that made the entire ocean tremble;
I've forgotten... what it feels like to stand under the spotlight, being watched by countless eyes.
Of course, he wouldn't forget...
Who made him stand up again?
His gaze shifted slightly, landing on the figure in a white coat at the edge of the Shichibukai viewing platform.
It was the Straw Hat Pirates, it was V... that allowed him to wield such immense power once again!
"betray!?"
The gigantic Moria laughed wildly, the sound so loud it made the air tremble and the surrounding rubble bounce and roll on the ground.
His voice seemed to come from the depths of the earth, carrying an arrogant and overbearing tone:
"I've always been a pirate, so how can you talk about betrayal?!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his giant hand, which was big enough to cover half a street, with his five fingers spread open and a thick layer of shadow energy surging in his palm.
The hand, like a moving dark cloud, descended from the sky, reaching straight for the figure on the high platform, clad in a red cloak and enveloped in scorching lava—
"Remember my name!"
Moriah's voice boomed across the square like a thunderclap, shaking the entire battlefield.
"I am—"
"One of the Straw Hat Pirates' eight great demons—the Shadow Demon, Gecko Moria!!!"
The moment the words fell, the entire battlefield fell into a moment of deathly silence.
Everyone was stunned.
The Straw Hat crew... eight demons?!
What kind of title is this?!
These words appeared before the world for the first time through the data transmission of the video Den Den Mushi.
But at this moment, the people on the battlefield had no time to care about these things.
Moria's gigantic hand, large enough to cover half the street, enveloped in dense shadow energy, crashed down like the sky collapsing—
Rumble—!!!
For some reason, the three admirals of the Navy did not make any move, even though they were directly below the attack.
The entire platform shattered under Moria's immense force.
The reinforced concrete defensive platform shattered into pieces like a fragile biscuit, with rubble and steel bars flying everywhere like a rainstorm, crashing onto the surrounding ground with a dull thud.
Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, forming a grayish-yellow column of fog that obscured half the sky.
Bound by the Seastone shackles, Sabo lost his balance on the collapsing platform and fell downwards like a leaf swept up by the autumn wind.
"Sabo!"
Upon seeing this, Luffy, who was confronting Garp, immediately shouted.
"Leave it to me!"
Just then, a figure suddenly pierced through the sky!
The speed was so fast that it even exceeded the visual capture limit of most of the powerful people present!
It was Sanji, who had transformed into a hummingbird and activated the power of the Speed-Speed Fruit.
He appeared suddenly beside Sabo as if by teleportation, then reverted to human form, firmly grasping Sabo's collar with one hand.
"cough!"
The violent pulling made Sabo gag.
Before he could even react, he was thrown to the ground again.
"Forty rounds of flowers bloom—a lifesaver!"
Robin, who was already prepared, crossed her arms, and a net made of arms appeared in the air, catching Sabo who was being thrown at her.
Immediately afterward, Sanji continued his charge towards the other Revolutionary Army soldiers who were falling from mid-air.
Time seemed to lose its ability to flow before him.
Every second was stretched out, and every movement was simplified to the extreme.
His figure transformed into streaks of gold and blue in mid-air, like an aurora hummingbird weaving through a storm.
One, two, three...
The revolutionary soldiers were pulled out of their descent one after another and then gently and precisely thrown to safety behind them.
Countless arms grew out of the space, weaving into a giant net that caught the soldiers being thrown in.
Meanwhile—
Another voice rang out amidst the chaos, carrying a calm and unwavering certainty:
"Everyone, look to me."
It was Usopp who spoke.
The chaos of war did not affect the Straw Hat crew's operations in the slightest.
Usopp spread his hands, and a white wax liquid inexplicably surged from his palms, quickly forming the shape of a key in the air.
"go with!"
Usopp waved his hand.
Those keys seemed to follow a predetermined path, precisely inserting themselves into the shackles of all the revolutionary soldiers.
With a series of "click" sounds as the locks were opened, the chains restricting the revolutionary soldiers' movements fell to the ground one after another.
"We're saved...!"
"They're from the Straw Hat Pirates!"
After landing, the soldiers who had escaped death looked at the figure moving through the air, their eyes filled with gratitude and awe.
Just as the revolutionary soldiers were being rescued one after another, the smoke of battle seemed to freeze for a moment.
The dust from the collapse of the platform has not yet settled, and rubble is still rolling down.
On the platform shattered by Moria's attack, three figures slowly emerged from the ruins—Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji. The three admirals each neutralized the impact in different ways, standing unharmed in their original positions.
But the expressions of the three of them all carried a solemnity in different styles.
"Even Moria has joined the Straw Hat crew?!"
Aokiji repeated the name in a low voice, a deep thought flashing in his eyes.
"This is no ordinary pirate crew!"
Kizaru adjusted his sunglasses, his tone still languid, but with a rare seriousness in his voice: "Oh dear... this is really getting more and more incredible~"
"Now that all the revolutionaries have been rescued, this execution can't continue."
On the only remaining high platform of the ruins, Sengoku's face was so gloomy it was almost as if ink could drip from it.
He stared intently at Luffy, then glanced at the silent Garp beside him, and finally gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence:
"Pass down the order—all troops, attack! We cannot allow the Revolutionary Army and the Straw Hat Pirates to leave Marineford alive!"
Chapter 220 Nika's Exposure
"Thank you, Straw Hat Crew, for saving my life!"
Freed from his restraints, Sabo quickly turned around and bowed to the Straw Hat crew to express his gratitude.
Although he still couldn't recall the past, those things were no longer important at this moment.
Importantly, these people risked going against the entire world to save him from the execution platform.
