"Issho!!"
On the ground, Garp shouted, "We can't let the Road Poneglyph fall into the hands of the Beast Pirates!"
Their mission this time was to stop exactly this from happening.
Fujitora tightened his grip on his cane-sword.
But before that massive arm could come down, a white figure shot out from it.
"A new Admiral, huh! Let me be your opponent!"
Yamato leapt into the air, her body spinning as she shifted into her Beastman form, dragging a long streak of white lightning as her iron club thundered down.
"Three Worlds Down – Pull into the Abyss!!"
Fujitora's expression remained unchanged, though the cane-sword in his hands trembled sharply.
"Hell Journey!"
"Huh?!"
Yamato screamed as the overwhelming gravity instantly slammed down on her, dragging her violently toward the ground.
"Yah!!"
Amid the startled cries, Yamato crashed heavily onto the ground, leaving a massive crater where she landed.
But in the very next second, pressing against the crushing gravity, Yamato stomped the ground and launched herself back into the air.
"What a dirty trick of a power!!"
Yelling in irritation, Yamato transformed into a reversing meteor.
"What incredible strength."
Fujitora muttered in genuine admiration.
To withstand his intense gravity and charge upward like that…
Ice Empress Yamato, truly the daughter of Kaido of the Beasts.
"Ice Slash!!"
"Gravity Blade!!"
The next instant, their weapons collided.
With the violent clash, Yamato fell again, but Fujitora was also blasted backward.
"This is bad!"
The Marine Vice Admirals still perched on the Road Poneglyph Fujitora had lifted paled in shock.
Though Yamato had been knocked down by Admiral Fujitora, her massive arm was still reaching toward them.
"Everyone, get down!!"
At that moment, a figure shot upward, placing themselves directly in front of them.
"Vice Admiral Garp!!"
The Vice Admirals cheered excitedly.
As expected, at the most crucial moments, it was still Vice Admiral Garp!
Without hesitation, the Vice Admirals quickly jumped down.
The fight ahead was no longer something they could participate in.
"Hahaha! Come on! Garp!!"
Bullet laughed out loud. "Last time wasn't enough. This time, let's settle it properly!"
A purple-black aura suddenly surged over his massive metallic right arm, and a tremendous force infused into it. With this power, he could crush mountains and break fortresses!
"Galaxy Divide!!"
This time, the overwhelming Haki, as vast as a galaxy, didn't shoot forward—it coiled around his arm instead.
The gigantic palm, as enormous as a mountain, clashed against Garp's arm, which looked as thin as a toothpick.
The extreme contrast naturally stirred pity for Garp, fearing that in the next instant, he might be smashed like a mere mosquito.
But then.
Boom!!!
An unprecedented thunderclap exploded across the sky. Countless black lightning bolts radiated in all directions, and a terrifying shockwave surged downward, shaking the entire city outside the palace.
"Ugh!!"
The enormous giant leaned back, swinging his arm backward, and his feet involuntarily stumbled back.
"Damn old man, your strength is frightening!"
Bullet laughed.
Meanwhile, Garp, with no support in midair, was directly slammed down.
Although his feet landed steadily on the ground, the immense force caused the ground to collapse instantly. In the blink of an eye, it became a hundred-meter-deep pit, trapping Garp at the bottom.
"Give back my Road Poneglyph!"
Linlin soared into the sky on a cloud, heading straight for the stone still floating above.
Garp, who had just landed, used his legs to launch himself back into the air.
At the same time, Fujitora, who had just been knocked into the sky by Yamato, was descending toward the Road Poneglyph.
"Hahaha! None of you are getting in my way!"
Bullet laughed again.
Suddenly, cannons sprouted all over the giant's body.
In the next instant, the heavy artillery fired.
Beams of light shot toward the three who were approaching the stone.
"Gravity Blade!"
"Warlord!"
"Meteor Fist!"
All three attacked simultaneously to block the assault.
With the three of them at this level, even the new-type beam cannon, no matter how powerful, naturally could not harm them.
Beams of light from the cannon were continuously blown apart.
At the same time, Yamato, who had just been knocked down by Fujitora, bounced back up, leaping directly behind a large rock.
"Fly for me!"
The crystal-clear spiked club slammed heavily against the massive Road Poneglyph.
The indestructible Poneglyph showed no damage at all. At this moment, it flew out like a cannonball.
And then, it struck right into the palm of a giant hand.
"Bring it back!!"
Charlotte Linlin immediately flew into a rage.
Garp didn't hesitate either, stomping through the air as he charged forward.
"Hahaha!"
Bullet laughed loudly. "Too late!!"
The Road Poneglyph had already merged directly into the giant's palm.
Even an indestructible Poneglyph couldn't resist the power of a Devil Fruit; it fused with Bullet, becoming part of his enormous body.
"I'll crush you!!"
Linlin was furious, swinging her giant sword and unleashing a massive cutting wave.
But the Bullet giant's defense was by no means inferior to his core body. With a casual swing of his palm, he shattered the sword wave into pieces.
"Hahaha! Crush me? Is that all?"
Bullet's tone was full of mockery.
"You bastard!!"
Linlin was enraged to the point of exploding, wishing she could cut Bullet down on the spot!
Seeing this, Bullet's smile grew even wider.
But Jack, standing atop the giant's head, was somewhat surprised.
That was Charlotte Linlin? She was much thinner than the last time they met.
But now was not the time to focus on her. Jack turned his head.
A massive red stone rose from the ground, and Jack took out his Den Den Mushi.
Charlotte Linlin hadn't yet recovered from her rage, while Garp was already stomping through the air to charge again.
He would never let this stone fall into the hands of the Beasts Pirates!
Meanwhile.
"Grow!!"
The Charlotte family had also paused their attacks due to the sudden appearance of the Beasts Pirates, allowing Green Bull to make his move.
His hands sank deep into the ground, and immediately, massive trees and vines began sprouting around the giant's feet, even attempting to grow directly into his body.
But, at that moment.
Whoosh—
A cold wind tore through the area.
Garp was suddenly covered in a layer of solid ice, and the trees and vines on the ground froze completely, turning the entire battlefield into an icy wasteland.
The ice on his body shattered in an instant. Garp looked up in disbelief at the man standing atop the giant's head.
"Long time no see, Mr. Garp."
The former Marine Admiral and current top officer of the Beasts Pirates, Kuzan, greeted his former master with a smile.
"Kuzan!!"
Garp gritted his teeth. "You idiot brat!"
"Aokiji??"
Linlin gasped in shock.
The former Marine Admiral had become a high-ranking officer under Ian?
