Over the sea a kilometer away, Luo Chen stood in the void.
A pitch-black sphere flew from his palm.
In an instant, infinite gravitational force emanated from the pitch-black sphere.
The seawater below reversed its flow, surging toward the black orb.
Akainu, Garp, and the others who had witnessed this scene before understood that this was the technique known as "Chibaku Tensei."
A black ball condensed from a gravitational source.
Its effect was entirely different from the twelve black spheres surrounding Luo Chen's body.
They had originally been standing in the air using Taijutsu or Fruit abilities.
But at this moment, the powerful gravity dragged them toward the gravitational black ball.
Fujitora tried to manipulate gravity to resist.
But facing Luo Chen's gravity was like a tug-of-war between a child and an adult.
His gravity had no effect at all; he could only be forcibly dragged forward.
Luo Chen merged the gravity of the Tenseigan, the gravity of Bansho Ten'in, and the gravity of Chibaku Tensei into one.
All three major gravitational forces acted upon the pitch-black sphere in his palm.
Roger, Whitebeard, Garp, and the others lost all ability to resist.
Even as their faces flushed red and they roared repeatedly, they could not withstand it.
The bodies of the twelve Admirals flew rapidly toward the gravitational black ball.
Shanks, Sabo, Gion, and other spectators rushing from a distance stopped in horror, not daring to get closer.
From their perspective, the space around Luo Chen was actually warping.
That gravitational black ball was like a miniature black hole, swallowing seawater, air, space, and all other matter.
They even saw "duplicates" of Roger, Whitebeard, and the others flying toward the black ball.
The figures of the twelve Admirals appeared slightly illusory, and behind them, another image of themselves appeared.
Beckman stood beside Shanks, his pupils shrinking to pinpricks as he said in shock:
"Time is warping?!"
The movements of Whitebeard and Roger struggling in the air appeared very slow, like slow-motion footage.
Furthermore, the afterimages behind them were incredibly realistic, as if they were actions performed at different times.
Observation Haki was thrown into extreme chaos by the gravity.
It was impossible to perceive any presence.
Beckman judged based on his own knowledge that space and time in that range ahead had been distorted.
When gravity reached a certain level of strength, the flow of time near the gravitational source would slow down.
In his view, the situation of Roger, Whitebeard, and the others was exactly like that.
Shanks' expression was grave to the extreme.
He knew Luo Chen was strong.
But he didn't expect him to be this strong.
That gravity was powerful enough to even slow down time.
No one in this world could escape the shackles of gravity.
Imu likely couldn't do it either.
Gion, Tokikake, Enel, and the others arrived nearby and also quickly stopped, not daring to approach further.
In the distance, ripples appeared in Luo Chen's pale blue pupils.
Time around him had indeed slowed down.
The simultaneous activation of the three major gravities caused the time flow to decelerate.
Moreover, this was gravity exerted with his Level 12 Taijutsu.
As his Taijutsu level increased, the gravity would become even stronger.
His idea of using the Rainbow Mist to accelerate time should be feasible.
Luo Chen decided to end this battle.
With his current strength, dealing with Roger, Whitebeard, and the others was far too easy.
There was no need to continue playing.
He just needed to unleash a powerful attack to open the eyes of the people of Totto Land.
Luo Chen threw the gravitational black ball from his palm, letting it fly out slowly.
The gravitational black ball finally stopped in the air a hundred meters away from him.
Whitebeard, Roger, Garp, and the others were already pressed tightly together, their faces squashed against each other and their features distorted.
Akainu and Douglas Barrett, the two with the most violent tempers, had furious eyes.
But they didn't dare vent their anger on Luo Chen, so they could only glare at the people squeezed against them.
Those with cold and aloof personalities like Dragon, Hawkeye, and Shimotsuchi Ryuma now had stiff and unnatural expressions.
Fujitora gave a helpless smile and lamented to Garp, who was pressed right against his face:
"Fleet Admiral Luo Chen is truly powerful; I have never felt so powerless."
From the start of the battle, the Gravity Fruit had failed to have any effect.
Luo Chen completely ignored his gravity.
Later, just as Fujitora wanted to engage in close combat, he was bound by "Chibaku Tensei" and could not move.
Garp had clashed with Luo Chen many times and had long grown accustomed to it.
He gave up resisting, folded his arms across his chest, and looked toward Luo Chen.
He didn't know what Luo Chen intended to do by gathering them all together.
"My old arms and legs can't handle much tossing around," Garp muttered.
Among this group, he was the oldest.
Sengoku and Whitebeard were also old, but both were in bodies of Impure World Reincarnation.
A flash of golden light suddenly entered Garp's vision.
He froze, his mouth slowly hanging open.
Hundreds of meters away, the twelve pitch-black Truth-Seeking Balls near Luo Chen's arms formed a ring and spun rapidly.
Surging energy gathered, forming a golden longsword in the center of the twelve Truth-Seeking Balls.
It was truly very long.
The golden light sword swept over their heads, extending far into the distant sea.
Garp tried his best to turn his head and look toward the sky behind them, attempting to see exactly how far the golden sword reached.
But it was endless.
Wherever the naked eye could see, a beam of golden light existed.
Fujitora said in shock: "This... is at least dozens of kilometers?!"
Garp nodded blankly.
Luo Chen's attack range exceeded their visual distance.
This kid wouldn't be thinking I'm too old and trying to take the opportunity to finish me off, then revive me with Impure World Reincarnation, would he?
Garp thought with a shocked association.
The golden light sword was not only long but also possessed terrifying power.
Their Observation Haki could fully sense how horrifying the aura of the golden sword was.
One could say this aura surpassed any attack Garp had ever seen.
Luo Chen gripped the golden light sword with one hand and slashed downward.
This was the strongest offensive technique of the Tenseigan, the Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion.
This sword of his was currently only about a hundred kilometers long.
There was still a long way to go before it could cut through the moon, which had a diameter of thousands of kilometers.
But it was estimated that killing Imu or cutting through the Red Line would not be a problem.
Luo Chen's execution of this sword was not intended to kill Garp.
It was purely for performance.
The Jinghai Army now had as many experts as clouds; as the Fleet Admiral, he naturally had to display strength that could suppress everything.
Under his intentional control of power, Roger, Whitebeard, Garp, and the others were swept by the golden sword and sent flying horizontally.
The twelve Jinghai Army Admirals were not lightly injured.
They temporarily lost the ability to fight further.
Luo Chen withdrew the Chibaku Tensei, letting them fall into the sea.
The hundred-kilometer light sword of the Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion slashed into the ocean.
"Boom!" — A loud roar resounded, as if the heavens were collapsing and the earth was rending.
The eardrums of Shanks, Sabo, Gion, and others near the battlefield buzzed, and they couldn't help but cover their ears.
Everyone within the sea area of Totto Land heard the sound of the golden sword colliding with the ocean.
People from more than thirty islands ran out of their homes.
Some climbed to high places, while others ran to the shore, looking in the direction of the Zhenhai Star Hub.
A beam of solid golden light stretched from the end of the sea beyond their sight.
The roaring sound of seawater echoed in the sky of Totto Land.
Those closer to the battlefield even saw the distant sea completely parted.
The entire ocean split into two, forming a dark and wide chasm.
Violent and restless seawater kicked up extremely high surges, rushing toward the islands in all directions.
Standing high in the sky, Luo Chen's indigo robes fluttered as his Conqueror's Haki swept out.
The tangible pressure of his Haki covered the sea, pressing the dozens of meters high giant waves back into the surface with the force of Mount Tai.
