That Haki Ball, like a ball of destruction, erupted in silence, with all sounds seemingly returning to zero at this moment.
Warcury watched helplessly as that black ball rapidly expanded.
If hit by it, forget about protecting the holy land below. Even he himself might be in mortal danger.
Fortunately, with the activation of a certain magic circle blocked by his massive body, Saint Warcury, who had originally been transported here, was sent back to Pangaea Castle once again.
As for the inner ring area of Mary Geoise about to be destroyed, they could only leave it to fate.
At this time, the God's Knights on the periphery and other Naruto clones also suddenly felt intense tremors.
Then they could clearly see with the naked eye that in the extreme distance, a continuously expanding black sphere had appeared.
This black sphere was like the maw of an abyss, constantly devouring everything around it.
Everyone on the battlefield understood the final fate of anything that fell within that sphere's range.
"Damn it!"
Shamrock, seeing the holy land suffer destruction again, felt deeply derelict in his duty while also feeling somewhat uneasy about how disappointed Lord Imu would be.
The biggest difference between him and his brother Shanks was that Shanks dared to refuse Imu's power, allowing a sea beast to bite off his arm bearing the carved mark rather than submit to "God."
Shamrock was the exact opposite. He viewed this power as a blessing, even as glory.
After trading punches with the Naruto clone and creating distance, Shamrock swung the blade in his hand again, sending three slashes rapidly forward.
That clone only dodged left and right, then to his horror, a black sphere of the same type suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Don't even think about it!"
Shamrock roared, his figure continuously approaching.
The three-headed hellhound, after a period of "rest," had regained its transformation ability.
This time the hellhound in Shamrock's hands burst forth with its complete power.
Unfortunately, their movements were still a step too slow.
Upon seeing the opponent approach, this clone had already fired the Haki Ball ahead of time.
The giant dog head only managed to bite the clone's arm before seeing him turn into smoke and disperse.
At the same time, the remaining two clones fighting underwear old man Sommers and bandaged girl Gunko looked at each other.
Both synchronously attacked with tacit understanding.
Hakoku!!
The shockwave firmly pressed Sommers and Gunko to the ground, also giving the two clones time.
So they simply joined hands to form black balls.
This thing was just too useful for large-scale destruction.
Like the Rasengan, the Haki Ball, as a variant of the Tailed Beast Ball, also belonged to the type of skill where "you can use as much as you have energy."
Sommers and Gunko could only watch helplessly as the black spheres in these two clones' hands grew larger and larger, with that suffocating sense of oppression growing stronger and stronger.
"You have disappointed Mu greatly."
Suddenly, the voices of that noble being on the throne rang out in the hearts of the remaining three God's Knights members.
Then Gunko, who had just been suppressed together with Sommers, somehow broke free from control and floated in mid-air, looking down at Naruto on the ground.
Demon-like bat wings and a long, sharp tail grew from her back, with dark power condensing into a trident in her hands.
Circles of patterns also appeared in Gunko's pupils.
"Naruto Uzumaki, Mu remembers you."
Seeming to completely disregard the rapidly expanding Haki Ball, Gunko, possessed by Imu, spoke with overlapping voices.
Although the attack on holy land Mary Geoise over ten years ago could only be considered small-scale trouble, Naruto and Tiger had barely managed to tear away a layer of the World Government's facade.
Imu naturally retained some impression of them.
However, Naruto Uzumaki?
As long as he wasn't a "D," no matter how much he jumped around, he was ultimately just a third-rate criminal.
The arrow-like long tail suddenly extended, stabbing toward the two clones below.
One clone immediately left the ball-forming state and actively met this attack.
Boom!
The air between the tail tip and fist distorted.
But the two sides couldn't maintain a stalemate for more than a few seconds before Imu's tail pierced through the fist's obstruction and stabbed through this clone.
Smoke dispersed. Now only one clone remained on the field.
"Arrogant one, do you think you can do whatever you want just because your main body isn't here?"
Imu's voice came from Gunko's mouth.
"Your crimes will be punished by Mu."
"What gibberish are you spouting?"
The Naruto holding the Haki Ball with one hand showed a mocking expression on his face.
"Sneaky bastard, I'm waiting for you to come find me!"
With that, that massive Haki Ball was fired with earth-shattering momentum.
Watching the incoming attack, Gunko's body was rapidly enveloped by shadows, soon becoming a mountain-sized giant black shadow.
The shadow opened its giant mouth, directly confronting that black-red Conqueror's Haki Tailed Beast Ball.
Unfortunately, this Naruto clone didn't see the result of their clash.
After firing this Haki Ball, this spent clone was pierced by another tail that had sneak attacked from somewhere, lacking Haki, and dispersed into smoke.
Above Mary Geoise, there wasn't the dazzling mushroom cloud Naruto had hoped for.
Meanwhile, at Sabaody Archipelago.
GR Island No. 1 had now been beaten beyond recognition under Naruto and Akainu's battle.
The ground was full of craters, and most buildings had been destroyed.
Lucky slave traders and buyers barely kept their lives, while the unlucky ones died directly under unknown AOE attacks.
Those who had escaped to other islands watched helplessly as dozens of magma fists rained down from the sky.
Then came hurricanes and tsunamis.
In short, all the natural disasters they could imagine appeared on that island.
Those with broader knowledge fearfully told those around them about the identities of the two fighters.
One was "Akainu," among the three Marine Admirals, and the other was the "Great Hero," quite famous in the New World.
Pirates who hadn't experienced New World powerhouses showed different reactions upon seeing this spectacle.
Some were filled with longing, their faces full of fighting spirit.
Others lost their nerve, realizing their own weakness.
Still others developed inappropriate greed, wondering if they could take advantage of the chaos for some benefit.
Island No. 1 was now riddled with holes.
Sabaody Archipelago was actually a floating island built on the roots of the world's largest mangrove, the "Yarukiman Mangrove," with no connection to the continental shelf below.
Therefore, Island No. 1 was now slowly sinking.
Bang!
After smashing Akainu into the ground again and then dodging his sneak attack while lying down, Naruto looked at the Admiral before him with a somewhat helpless expression.
Actually, he had originally only wanted to use Akainu to divert the Navy's attention, so he hadn't used his full strength.
He had even only used Nine-Tails cloak mode briefly before canceling it.
But unexpectedly, although Akainu's attack power wasn't that formidable, his vitality and endurance were truly exceptional.
Attacks that could destroy an entire pirate crew would hit him, and within seconds, he'd be standing up lively again.
This wasn't just because of his elementalization ability. Akainu's own physical constitution was also formidable.
Suddenly, Naruto, who had just looked helpless, seemed to receive some kind of signal, sometimes frowning, sometimes showing a surprised smile.
Then he looked up at Akainu across from him.
Akainu was also stunned by his changing expressions, even thinking he'd gone mad.
"Thanks to you, Akainu."
After saying this out of nowhere, Naruto started forming a ball on the spot with zero startup frames.
Akainu had the honor of seeing the Haki Ball that only the noble Celestial Dragons in the holy land had witnessed.
Observation Haki sent strong crisis warnings.
But Akainu didn't intend to retreat.
Perhaps in his view, "Absolute Justice" was just like this.
With a grave expression, this Marine Admiral's body temperature rapidly rose, with scalding magma continuously emerging from within and gathering on his right arm.
"Happy times are always brief. That's enough for today."
"Consider this a farewell gift."
Perhaps to thank the Marine Admiral for his cooperation, Naruto didn't strike with killing intent.
This Haki Ball was much smaller, roughly half a person's height.
Of course, its power was still not to be underestimated.
The next moment, the Haki Ball and magma fist collided, producing an earth-shattering explosion.
The entire Island No. 1 completely sank to the ocean floor under this clash.
