Without Joy Boy needing to emphasize anything further, Caesar and Roger already understood what they needed to do next.
Almost simultaneously, the two unleashed their full combat power from left and right, charging toward Imu's flanks!
Caesar's mountain-like, robust body surged with crimson flames as the longsword in his hand expanded dozens of meters.
The world's most supreme Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki simultaneously enveloped and coiled around it as he slashed diagonally toward Imu's slender neck.
On the other side, the ground beneath Roger's feet shattered.
His longsword Ace shot out like a dragon as his entire body sprayed blood, his aura fierce and tragic.
Yet his eyes shone with unparalleled brightness as he thrust directly toward Imu's armpit!
With a furious roar, the white flames on Joy Boy's body seemed to gain life, extending outward to cling to Caesar and Roger's bodies.
Instantly, various buffs continuously stacked upon Caesar and Roger.
Immense strength, defense, sharpness, healing, acceleration...
The trio's momentum merged into one, and Caesar felt his power approaching a new level.
That ambiguous, hazy sensation of being on the verge of touching the next stage of life made his heart itch with anticipation.
His speed and strength were steadily climbing under Joy Boy's amplification!
Similarly, Roger also felt his own power growing.
The three formed an arrowhead formation, simultaneously attacking Imu.
"Naive! Joy, do you still think I'm at the same strength level as eight hundred years ago? The gap between newly entering B-Class and peak B-Class is beyond your imagination!"
Imu's expression remained cold as a layer of gray, chaotic domain emerged from her petite body, resembling a thousand-fold gravity zone.
It instantly froze and trapped Caesar's slash and Roger's thrust in place.
Only Joy Boy's straight punch, wreathed in pale flames, pierced through the domain before her, striking toward her face.
In a thousandth of a second, Imu's slender fingers clenched into a fist and disappeared before her.
Then Caesar and Roger watched in horror as Joy Boy's fist stopped advancing, shattering inch by inch, his entire body collapsing inward before exploding into countless rubber fragments scattering everywhere.
Only then did the explosive sound of fists tearing through the air reach their ears!
"Holy shit, this old woman is just too damn overpower, isn't she?""
Caesar's eyes widened in disbelief.
But the next moment, a chilling intuition sent a cold shiver down his spine.
A delicate, pale fist silently pierced through his defenses and struck his chest.
BOOM!!
Like a comet's impact, centered on the point of Imu's punch, the robust chest muscles of Caesar burst apart inch by inch, countless flesh and blood crushed and mangled.
His body, like a meteor, carved out concentric white shockwaves in the air as he was sent flying from G1 Island, cleaving a chasm hundreds of meters wide across the sea surface!
High in the sky several kilometers above, Shiki, Fujitora, and the others all turned pale with horror.
Caesar had been sent flying over twenty kilometers with a single punch, crashing into the ocean and stirring up waves hundreds of meters high!
"Caesar!!"
Kaido's eyes turned crimson, his heart convulsing as he lost all composure.
Transforming into the Azure Dragon, he shot like lightning toward where Caesar had landed.
Meanwhile, the colossal shockwave centered on G1 Island had already erupted like a storm sweeping across heaven and earth, violently surging forth!
Shiki, Fujitora, and the others were all swept into this immense hurricane, instantly becoming like duckweed tossed upon raging waves, helplessly blown far into the distance!
Viewed from ten thousand meters above, one could see a massive ring of air exploding over G1 Island, instantly spreading across hundreds of miles of sea, pushing back the waves layer by layer and exposing the seabed below!
And G1 Island itself instantly became a towering mountain rising from within a vast basin!
"What the hell is this? How can we even fight this?!"
Roger stared blankly as the ground beneath his feet was torn up layer by layer, the surrounding space shattering like glass to reveal the boundless starry sky overhead!
Was this still a power that a human could possess?
When he saw Imu turn her gaze toward him, he could no longer muster any thought of resistance.
God.
That single word was all Roger could summon to express his assessment of Imu's power.
Without a word, Imu similarly thrust her fist through the void, aiming for Roger's body.
Roger felt as if he had fallen into an icy abyss, a terror of impending death surging through his heart.
Even Caesar, with his monstrous physique, had struggled to withstand Imu's punch.
If he took a hit, he would undoubtedly be blown to pieces.
This world was finished!
"Don't lose hope! There's still a chance!"
Joy Boy's voice suddenly rang out in his heart.
In an instant, the shattered rubber on the ground coalesced and enveloped Roger's body, forming a streamlined suit of armor.
Boundless vitality poured into Roger's body, amplifying his Power of Destruction Rule.
"What is this?"
Roger's mind buzzed as he felt an unprecedented surge of power generating within him.
Almost instinctively, he raised his sword to block in front of him.
CRACK!
Imu's pale fist shattered Ace without any suspense and struck his chest!
BOOM!
A burst of white air exploded behind Roger, like a nuclear detonation, obliterating half the island behind him into a crater hundreds of meters deep!
"Huh? I'm not dead?"
Roger stared at the dent in his chest, but his body hadn't exploded as he had imagined, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
"Fool! This is my ultimate enhancement technique. This Genesis God Armor can combine all of our powers. My Creation Rule can greatly amplify your Power of Destruction Rule. Seize this chance and attack her!"
Joy Boy's roar exploded in Roger's mind.
Roger suddenly understood and prepared to counterattack.But the clearing ahead had already lost Imu's trace.
"Where is she?"
"Fool! She's in another dimension! Use the Power of Rules to properly sense, and you can lock onto her position!"
Roger attempted to unleash the Power of the Destruction Rule within him.
As the aura of destruction permeated the island's sky, a blurred figure instantly appeared beside him, as if seen through frosted glass—unclear and indistinct.
The next moment, space shattered
Imu coldly turned and swept her long, pale leg like a battle-axe, slicing through the void and striking Roger's waist.
The blow sent him flying horizontally for several kilometers, skimming across the sea surface like a skipping stone, tumbling endlessly.
When his body, after hundreds of rolls, finally came to a stop, the armor encasing him suddenly detached and shot like lightning toward Caesar's direction.
Roger shouted in confusion, "Hey! Where are you going?"
Joy Boy didn't even look back, grumbling irritably.
"Roger, you're too useless. I'm going to find that kid."
Roger's mouth twitched.
In his perception, Imu—that terrifying woman—completely ignored him and pursued the fleeing Joy Boy.
"She didn't even spare me a glance... I am the Pirate King for fuck sake!"
Deeply wounded, Roger lay flat on the sea surface like a salted fish, floating aimlessly
