In the world of One Piece—Marine Headquarters, Marineford Island.
Inside the office of a Marine Vice Admiral, Garp slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the familiar surroundings of his room.
If not for the fact that his clothes were tattered, soaked in blood, and his Vice Admiral cloak nowhere to be seen, he might've thought he had simply taken a nap and had a strange dream.
Opening the Exchange Panel of the Lord God System, Garp looked at the translucent screen before him and reflexively let out his signature hearty laugh.
"Sakura, Lord God, Reincarnator Missions... what a fun little experience."
Though he didn't quite understand the true purpose of this "Lord God,"
Since it hadn't forced him to do anything that went against his conscience—and had even let him live through such an interesting adventure—Garp had simply accepted becoming a Reincarnator without much fuss.
In fact, he was now looking forward to his next mission.
Besides training his grandson, he had found something else to keep him entertained.
Speaking of which—those three individuals who vanished after freeing the slaves in Mary Geoise a few years ago, could they also be Reincarnators, just like the mysterious figure Aokiji mentioned who destroyed Impel Down?
As he pondered these strange thoughts, Garp changed into a fresh Marine uniform and leisurely browsed through the Exchange Options.
Before he knew it, he had dozed off again.
Not long after he drifted into sleep, an unexpected visitor arrived at Marine Headquarters.
A man clad in crimson armor strode across the open sea as though walking on solid ground, slowly approaching Marineford.
He looked up at the crescent-shaped island, with its many Marine warships docked around the perimeter, and at the towering fortress proudly bearing the kanji for "MARINE."
A faint smirk curled on Madara's lips.
"The Marine Headquarters—home base of this world's navy. Three Admirals, one Fleet Admiral, and numerous Vice Admirals—all stationed here. Practically their entire top-tier fighting force."
"The one I fought last time, Aokiji… he was just one of the Admirals."
Although what he was about to do was audacious, that didn't mean Madara planned to brute-force his way through without a strategy or any regard for who stood in his way.
In the Reincarnation Space, Madara had already exchanged for detailed intel—he had a solid understanding of this world's power system and the capabilities of the Marine leadership.
And his goal this time wasn't just to stir up trouble.
Obtaining Devil Fruits and selling them to the Lord God—now that was a profitable endeavor.
After all, reviving Hashirama and Izuna was no cheap task.
"Well then, let's say hello."
Still some distance from Marineford, Madara leapt into the sky.
His body became enveloped in a blue chakra shell as he activated his Susanoo.
The colossal blue warrior swiftly finished forming hand seals.
Powerful ocular energy surged from Madara's dual Mangekyō.
In the blink of an eye—
A massive meteor, hundreds of meters in diameter, appeared out of nowhere high above the clouds. It streaked downward, wrapped in blazing flame, heading directly for Marine Headquarters with overwhelming force.
Heavenly Obstacle Quaking Star! (Tengai Shinsei!)
Upon arriving in the One Piece world, Madara didn't hesitate to unleash this large-scale AOE attack.
Though the technique was impressive in raw power, it had limited practical use in real combat—any opponent on his level could easily escape its area of effect before impact.
But in this particular case?
Perfect for making a statement.
"What the hell is that?"
At the lookout tower of Marineford, a marine spotted the towering blue giant standing atop the ocean through his binoculars, a look of confusion creeping onto his face.
Before he could report it, the sky suddenly dimmed—as though the heavens themselves had turned bleak.
He stuck his head out the window and instantly widened his eyes in shock.
"A-A-A METEOR!!"
He yanked the alarm trigger.
A deafening klaxon blared across the entire Marine Headquarters.
Unlike the decaying Mary Geoise, Marineford was home to many seasoned elites. Within moments, they assessed the situation and turned their eyes upward in astonishment at the giant meteor descending from the sky.
If it landed in the center of the island, it would surely obliterate the entire base.
Just then—
A brilliant surge of molten lava shot up from the fortress's peak, charging directly toward the meteor.
Thousands of meters above ground, the two forces collided violently.
BOOM!!
Molten magma met colossal meteor.
A blinding crimson shockwave exploded outward. The sky darkened as the impact detonated with thunderous force, shattering the meteor into countless fist-sized chunks.
Most splashed harmlessly into the sea, though a few rained down on the island, causing minor structural damage.
The magma then descended, trailing thick smoke, and reformed into the shape of a man.
Wearing a red suit and a Marine Admiral's signature white cloak emblazoned with "Justice," the man's eyes were cold and resolute.
"Who the hell do you think you are, attacking the embodiment of absolute justice—Marine Headquarters?"
"Admiral Akainu… user of the Magma-Magma Fruit. So it's not Aokiji this time, huh?"
Madara's eyes gleamed with faint contempt.
"Just another Admiral. If they're all like that Aokiji guy… they're no threat to me at all."
Among the three Admirals, only the user of the Glint-Glint Fruit posed any real concern—their sheer speed made them harder to kill.
In that case, he might as well warm up first.
Madara nodded calmly.
The skeletal form of his blue Susanoo rapidly transformed.
Muscles layered over bone. Gleaming armor coated the body.
Twin arms stretched out from its back and quickly morphed into gigantic, sky-darkening wings. With a single flap, the massive figure took flight.
In both hands, it wielded exquisitely crafted chakra blades. Its overall form closely resembled the mythical Tengu—a fearsome yokai with crow-like features.
Complete-Body Susanoo!
This was Madara's true Susanoo form—its blade arcs could cleave through entire mountain ranges.
With a few powerful beats of its wings, Susanoo flew over the sea in mere seconds, arriving directly in front of the Marine fortress. The warships hadn't even had time to react.
"Brazen fool…"
Akainu's icy, ruthless eyes peeked from beneath his cap, locking onto the Susanoo.
He raised one hand—magma surged forth, forming a titanic molten fist glowing with scorching heat.
Great Eruption! (Dai Funka!)
Facing the searing magma, the Susanoo didn't flinch.
With a swift motion, it slashed down with its chakra blade.
SLASH!!
The cutting force was so immense it cleaved the magma apart—then continued forward unabated.
SWOOSH!
The sword energy tore through Akainu's body in an instant, carving a deep scar across the Marine fortress behind him.
