The world trembled beneath their feet.
God Valley burned — its once-golden shores now drowned in fire and ash. The air reeked of smoke, salt, and the faint metallic tang of blood.
At the center of it all stood a figure no human could call mortal — Saint Saturn, one of the Five Elders, his form now warped by something far more ancient and malevolent.
From his horns dripped black light. His eyes glowed with endless malice.
And when he spoke, his voice carried another's — layered, ethereal, divine.
"You dare to strike the heavens themselves?"
Rocks D. Xebec grinned through blood and ash. "We don't strike the heavens, old man…"
He raised his sword, its edge dripping with crimson haki.
"…We tear them down."
Around him, the titans of his crew assembled.
Newgate — young and unbroken, his bisento gleaming with quake energy.
Linlin — laughing madly, summoning a storm of homies and soul fire.
Kaido — still new to his monstrous strength, yet brimming with bloodlust.
And Ada Wong — her red dress torn but her stance unshaken, twin pistols glowing with Armament and Conqueror's haki.
Five of the strongest beings on the seas — the Rocks Pirates, united against the world itself.
The ground cracked under their combined presence.
The air itself seemed to scream.
Saturn raised a clawed hand. "Then perish."
A wave of black energy burst outward, melting stone and sea alike.
Kaido leapt first, his kanabo glowing. "Like hell we will!"
His strike met Saturn's palm with a shockwave that flattened mountains. Kaido was thrown back, but not before denting the god's arm.
Whitebeard followed, swinging his bisento — the air shattered with a quake that split the island in half.
Ada dove through the air behind him, firing six bullets at once. Each round spun in a perfect arc, weaving around debris, striking Saturn's chest and face.
Her haki-infused rounds burned on impact — sparks of crimson fire against black flesh.
Linlin unleashed her Zeus and Prometheus, lightning and flame converging with a roar. "MAMA MAMA! Let's see a god survive this!"
The combined blast struck Saturn dead-on — the explosion lighting up the entire island like dawn.
But when the smoke cleared, he still stood.
Barely scratched.
"Pathetic," he hissed.
He snapped his fingers — and from the ground, black tendrils burst forth, piercing through Kaido's shoulder and Linlin's side.
Ada shouted, "Get back!" and fired, severing the tendrils with precise haki-coated shots. Blood spattered her cheek, but she didn't flinch.
Rocks appeared behind Saturn in a flash, sword raised high. "Die, bastard!"
Their blades met — haki against divinity.
The air warped. Lightning split the sky.
Every clash between them sent shockwaves rippling across the island.
The heavens themselves seemed to recoil.
Imu's voice spoke through Saturn — calm, patient, cruel.
"You insects scurry about believing yourselves gods. Do you even know what the world truly is?"
Rocks snarled, pushing forward. "Yeah. It's ours for the taking!"
He slashed with all his might — black lightning exploded outward, cutting through the clouds. Saturn stumbled back, his form flickering.
Kaido rejoined, his dragon scales shimmering with fresh power. "Oi, captain! Move!"
He inhaled — then exhaled, a torrent of blue fire that swallowed Saturn whole.
Linlin slammed Prometheus down, adding to the inferno.
Ada leapt into the flames, her pistols blazing, each bullet a flash of red light.
"Burn, you bastard!"
The sky burned crimson. The sea boiled.
For a moment — a single, precious moment — Saturn staggered, his body melting under the combined fury of monsters.
But the laughter returned.
Low. Echoing. Ancient.
"Foolish mortals."
A wave of black fire exploded outward, obliterating everything in its path.
Ada was thrown backward, her guns wrenched from her hands. She crashed into the rubble, coughing blood.
"Damn it…"
She looked up — and froze.
Saturn no longer looked human.
His body twisted — horns elongating, limbs reshaping into something insectoid and celestial all at once. Black wings of light unfurled from his back.
Each movement distorted the air, reality bending around him like heat over steel.
Even Kaido's eyes widened. "What the hell is that thing?"
Linlin snarled, clutching her side. "He looks like a damn nightmare."
Rocks spat, his grin wild. "Good. I like nightmares."
He charged again, sword gleaming with black-red haki. Saturn met him mid-air, claws and blade colliding in a storm of divine fury.
Ada steadied herself, blood dripping down her chin. "Captain…"
Newgate stepped up beside her. "We're not letting him fight alone."
She nodded — holstering one pistol and drawing a short dagger infused with haki.
"Then let's make history."
They charged together.
Newgate's quake blade shattered the ground, Linlin's homies roared with stormlight, and Ada darted between them all, every movement precise, deadly, fluid. Her crimson dress fluttered like a banner of rebellion.
Saturn's laughter turned to a snarl as her dagger slashed his chest — leaving a burning mark of haki across divine flesh.
"Impossible—" he hissed.
Ada leveled her pistol at his face. "No. Just human."
She pulled the trigger.
The shot cracked through the heavens.
Saturn reeled, ichor splattering the ground. For the first time — he bled.
Rocks landed beside her, his eyes blazing. "Good shot."
"Didn't think bullets could hurt gods," she said, reloading.
"They don't," he smirked. "But we do."
Together they charged once more, their combined Conqueror's Haki painting the battlefield in streaks of black and red lightning. Kaido's roar joined theirs, Linlin's laughter echoing like thunder, and Whitebeard's quake blade shook the sky.
Five wills. Five monsters. One impossible goal.
The world itself trembled before them.
Saturn screamed — a sound that made mountains crumble.
Rocks swung his sword in an upward arc, Ada's bullet striking the same instant.
The blade and bullet connected at his core, a blinding flash erupting across the battlefield.
When the light faded — Saturn was on his knees.
His body cracked. His voice faltered.
"Imu-sama… forgive me…"
