World looked at the rushing flames, gritting his teeth, and ordered the Cloud-Cloud Homies to charge into the sea of fire.
"More-More Fifty Times Haoshoku!"
At the same time, he unleashed both fists, and with the amplification of fifty times Haoshoku, he completely blocked the damage from the sea of fire to himself and the Cloud-Cloud Homies.
The Cloud-Cloud Homies successfully carried them out of the sea of fire!
However, World forgot that there wasn't just Saint Maz in the air, but also CP0 Chief Langer!
"Crushing Wave!"
A hidden, powerful crushing wave surged from below World, instantly destroying the Cloud-Cloud Homies beneath his feet.
"Damn it!"
World himself was caught off guard and also hit by the crushing wave, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Moonwalk!"
"More-More Hundred Times Speed!"
World endured the pain and immediately charged towards the island below again!
"Good heavens, World alone attracted eight top-tier powerhouses. It seems the World Government is truly enraged this time!"
Nox had just arrived here. Looking down from the air, Nox found that in addition to the five Gorosei and CP0 Chief Langer, there was also Army Marshal Jenore Bolton and another top-tier powerhouse Nox didn't recognize.
The latter two were also hidden in the air, preventing World from escaping.
As long as the path in the air was blocked, World, being a Devil Fruit user, couldn't leave this island, making it like catching a turtle in a jar.
Just as Nox arrived, Golden Lion also arrived.
"Gyahahahaha, it seems I've arrived at the perfect time!"
In the distance, ten islands and five pirate ships were flying over at an extremely fast speed. Golden Lion hadn't even arrived yet, but his arrogant voice reached first!
"Knock those four guys in the air down!"
Seeing that Golden Lion had arrived, Nox directly jumped off the White Cloud Flying Ship and charged towards Army Marshal Jenore.
"Hahahahahaha, let's go down too, otherwise all the opponents will be taken!"
Seeing Nox jump down, Bullet and the other three also jumped down together. Koya transformed into a white cloud and hid in the air, not showing herself.
"Damn it, how did the Flying Pirates appear here!"
Saint Maz looked angrily at the approaching islands and pirate ships. They had clearly succeeded in trapping World on this island, and the next step was to capture him. Unexpectedly, the Flying Pirates appeared out of nowhere!
"Half of you come with me to intercept the Flying Pirates, and the other half continue to capture World!"
Saint Nasujuro transformed into a half-human, half-horse skeleton form and swiftly rushed towards Golden Lion's direction by stepping on air.
However, just as the World Government's attention was focused on the Flying Pirates and World, Nox, along with Bullet and others, leaped down from the air.
Nox stepped on Moonwalk, activated his gravity bracelet, and rapidly dove down at an extremely fast speed.
The Seven Star Sword in his hand bloomed with a blood-red light, and the three Sword Intents and two types of Haki perfectly merged together.
Blood-red lightning, like a thunderstorm, surged out from the sword body unrestrainedly, instantly turning the entire sky blood-red.
"How did the Limitless Pirates appear here too!"
Nox's sudden burst of aura caused everyone present to look up at the sky in astonishment. They didn't expect that in addition to the Flying Pirates, the Limitless Pirates had also appeared here!
"Three Elements Combined Secret Technique · Haoshoku Coating · Sky Shattering Earth Sundering Slash!"
Nox, carrying that invincible power, slashed down with a roar. In an instant, the sky collapsed, and the terrifying might shocked Army Marshal Jenore directly below.
"Not good!!!"
Army Marshal Jenore didn't expect Nox to choose him as an opponent. Caught off guard, he had no time to dodge. He held his hands above him, and powerful Busoshoku Haki covered his entire body.
"Bang!!!"
As Nox's powerful sword slash landed, Jenore instantly felt as if his hands had been struck by ten great mountains. The powerful force slammed his hands onto his own head.
The terrifying power extended along his hands and even into his body, and was transmitted to his head.
"Poof!!!"
In an instant, Jenore was shaken all over by this powerful sword slash, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His body fell to the ground like a meteor, creating a giant crater a thousand meters wide on the island.
Afterward, Bullet and the other four also used surprise attacks to knock down all the guys who were still flying in the air.
"Hahahahaha, Gorosei, you guys want to catch me, but it seems the Flying Pirates and the Limitless Pirates won't let you have your way!"
Seeing Golden Lion and Nox appear, World saw a glimmer of hope from his original despair.
Before, facing the World Government's encirclement, he felt despair, but he never expected Nox and Golden Lion to come and save him!
"Hold off the Flying Pirates and the Limitless Pirates, then capture World as quickly as possible. If you can't, just kill him!"
Saint Nasujuro said through gritted teeth.
In this situation, it was no longer them surrounding World, but the Pirate Crew surrounding them.
They had eight top-tier powerhouses, but the Limitless Pirates and the Flying Pirates, plus World, had roughly the same number of top-tier powerhouses.
Their biggest fear was Nox, because they all knew Nox possessed the power to kill top-tier powerhouses.
But no matter what, the objective of this operation must be achieved. Otherwise, they wouldn't know when they would be able to find World again.
After all, finding World this time relied on intelligence from a spy. Next time, there wouldn't be a spy to provide information about World.
"Gyahahahaha, I arrived at the perfect time! World Government dogs, die!"
Golden Lion didn't target the Gorosei. After all, he knew clearly how difficult it was to kill the Gorosei before. So, he set his sights on a top-tier powerhouse he had never met before.
From him, Golden Lion saw an opportunity to kill the opponent.
"Gyahahahaha, nameless nobody, report your name! You are worthy of dying by my swords!"
"Wave Slice · Thousand Valley Shred!"
Golden Lion's Sakura Ten and kogarashi simultaneously unleashed two massive slashes towards Ettore Lindsay, the top-tier powerhouse who came from a Celestial Dragon family.
"Pirate, I will kill you!"
Ettore Lindsay, being a Celestial Dragon, always looked down on these lowly Pirates. Seeing Golden Lion speak so arrogantly, he punched out in anger. With a surge of immense Busoshoku Haki, he directly shattered Golden Lion's slashes.
"Gyahahahaha, if you can do it, come on! Let's see if you kill me first, or I kill you first!"
"Lion Majesty · Thousand Valley Shred!"
Golden Lion laughed heartily and unleashed two more wild slashes.
The three top Executive Officers of the Flying Pirates and the four core Executive Officers of the Limitless Pirates attacked simultaneously, blocking the five Gorosei.
The remaining CP0 Chief Ruosuya was dealt with by World.
"Hahahahaha, I've never fought a Gorosei before! Today, let me see how tough the Gorosei are!"
Bullet laughed loudly, transforming into a hundred-meter-tall complete form King Kong Titan. His massive body charged towards Saint Satan, who had also transformed into his complete Ushi-Oni form.
"Brat, you're courting death!"
Seeing Bullet, one of Nox's subordinates, dare to challenge him alone, Saint Satan was furious. His massive body powerfully slammed into Bullet.
"Bang!!!"
The moment Bullet's body was struck by Saint Satan, Bullet's fist, covered in pitch-black Busoshoku Haki, also smashed into Saint Satan's head.
Saint Satan was knocked back over a hundred meters by Bullet, and Bullet was also knocked back over a hundred meters by Saint Satan.
However, these injuries were minor for both of them. After stabilizing their bodies, the two guys charged at each other again.
This kind of brutal and simple clash of power was the most direct and the most deadly.
Hermes, as the Beast King Ant King, also possessed the Wings of the Sky. He spread his wings and instantly charged towards Izuna Itten in the sky.
At the same time, Reinhardt also transformed into a stream of air and rushed into the sky, working together to deal with Saint Maz.
Chinjao and Ashura Doji teamed up to fight Saint Warcury, who had transformed into his Fenghsi form. Harold William and Aslan Elasti teamed up to fight Saint Pite.
Even if they were just subordinates, the combined forces of the two great Pirate Crew were more than enough to deal with the Gorosei.
"Damn it, if this continues, we won't be able to kill World!"
The battle had just begun, and the Gorosei already knew that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they had no chance of completing this mission and might even pay a huge price for it.
However, at this point, it was no longer up to them to retreat.
The Flying Pirates and the Limitless Pirates clearly didn't want to give them a chance to retreat. After all, Ettore Lindsay, who was fighting Golden Lion, and Army Marshal Jenore, who was fighting Nox, couldn't retreat easily. In fact, they couldn't even retreat in front of Nox and Golden Lion.
The five Gorosei could retreat, but the other three top-tier powerhouses they brought might be lost here.
World destroying Mary Geoise had already caused them heavy losses. Now, losing three more top-tier powerhouses would be a loss the World Government could not accept.
"What powerful strength! Does this guy have no limit? This is much stronger than before!"
After Army Marshal Jenore stood up from the deep pit, he looked solemnly at Nox, who was still diving down.
He had fought Nox before and knew deeply how terrifying Nox's potential was. He didn't expect that fighting Nox again now, Nox had already transformed that potential into strength that could almost crush him.
If Nox had relied on a sniper assisting him to kill his two Army Generals back then, then now Army Marshal Jenore had no doubt that Nox could kill two Army Generals even without a sniper's assistance.
