When the elite forces of the G-2 Branch swarmed up the Pinnacle of Glory, they were met with a sight that would be forever etched in their memories. The mountaintop was a wreck, littered with their proud comrades. The geniuses who had passed the Hell's Kitchen trial were now lying in pools of blood like broken dolls, their life status unknown. And the culprits who had caused all this were standing in the center of the ruins, exuding a tangible, suffocatingly terrifying aura. They didn't even seem to be in a hurry to attack, just sizing up the new arrivals with the mocking eyes of a predator looking at its prey.
"Shadow Sword" Enk was the first to charge forward. He saw Laurenne lying in a pool of blood, and his usually sharp eyes instantly turned crimson. "You bastards!" he roared. His rapier became a silver stream of light, moving at ultimate speed, stabbing straight at Wang Zhi, who was closest to him.
Wang Zhi still had his half-drunk appearance. He didn't even look at Enk, just lazily lifted his wine gourd and lightly tapped the stream of light. CLANG! A crisp, metallic sound that should not have come from a wine gourd echoed. The tip of Enk's sword, which could pierce a steel plate, seemed to have hit an immovable mountain the moment it touched the wine gourd. A strange, spiraling force came from the gourd, completely neutralizing his sword's momentum and even making his body stumble to the side.
"Too hasty, young man," Wang Zhi let out a drunken hiccup and glanced at him with hazy eyes. "Too much killing intent. It will affect the taste of the wine."
Enk was horrified. He had never met such a strange opponent. The other seemed to be full of openings, but in reality, he was a complete whole, like an unsolvable vortex that could neutralize all his sharp attacks. Just as he was about to regroup, a deafening roar came from the sky.
"All of you, get out of my way!" Zephyr had arrived. His massive body descended from the sky like a black meteor, crashing down between the Rocks Pirates and the marine forces. BOOM! The hard volcanic rock was smashed, creating a huge, spider-web-like crater. He was not wearing his "Justice" coat that symbolized his honor, but was bare-chested. His bronze skin was covered in a crisscross of scars, filled with explosive power.
"Rocks!" Zephyr's voice was hoarse with extreme anger. He stared at the main culprit, every word seeming to be squeezed from between his teeth. "You must die!"
"Wahahaha! Whether I die or not is not for you to decide," Rocks said, crossing his arms and looking down at him, his smile full of provocation. "But you, who personally let us hungry wolves into your sheep pen, how do you feel now? Isn't it exciting?"
"Cut the crap!" Zephyr roared, no longer wasting words. He stomped his foot and charged straight at Rocks like an out-of-control war chariot. His fist created a sharp, ear-piercing whistle in mid-air, and he slammed it at Rocks's face with the force of a thunderbolt! This blow was a condensation of pure strength and anger, enough to shatter a small mountain!
Faced with this earth-shattering strike, the smile on Rocks's face finally faded, replaced by the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent. "Bring it on!"
He also took a step forward. His right fist was instantly wreathed in black gravity and black and red streaks of Conqueror's Haki lightning. He didn't dodge, but met the attack head-on with a punch! BOOM! The collision of fist and arm created a roar more terrifying than any before. A visible, circular shockwave spread out from the two of them, sending both marines and pirates flying. The Pinnacle of Glory beneath their feet groaned under this force. The mountain trembled violently, and countless rocks rolled down.
Rocks and Zephyr both took three steps back, the ground beneath their feet cracking inch by inch. They were evenly matched!
"Interesting," Rocks said, shaking his slightly numb fist, his eyes burning. "As expected of a Marine Admiral. This brute strength is passable."
Zephyr's heart, however, was in turmoil. He had used eighty percent of his strength in that punch. Even the current Fleet Admiral, "Steel Bone" Kong, would not dare to take it so directly. And this man before him had matched him with just his bare fist! What was this guy's body made of?!
"All of you, attack! Take them down!" Momousagi shouted. She, with her famous sword Konpira, and Enk, attacked Newgate and Linlin from the left and right. The other marine officers also found their opponents, and a large-scale brawl of unprecedented scale completely erupted on the Pinnacle of Glory.
Faced with Momousagi's sharp slashes, Newgate just laughed heartily. He swung his naginata casually, creating an invisible shockwave that completely disrupted Momousagi's sword momentum. "Gurararara, little girl, your swordsmanship is good, but you're a little weak."
On the other side, Linlin was excitedly fighting several marine Vice Admirals. "Emperor Sword: Blade of Havoc!" The giant flame blade swept out, forcing several Vice Admirals to dodge in a panic. "Wahahaha! You all are much more durable than those little snacks from before!"
The entire Pinnacle of Glory had completely turned into a battlefield of gods. Haki and sword auras flew everywhere, and the sound of explosions and roars was endless. However, just as everyone's attention was drawn to this earth-shattering battle, Ren's figure silently disappeared from the edge of the battlefield. Like a ghost that did not belong to this chaos, he walked calmly toward a certain direction down the mountain. His target was not the battle, but the backstage of this feast—the power core of the G-2 base.
In the midst of his fierce battle with Zephyr, Rocks glanced at the direction Ren was leaving from the corner of his eye. A hint of a smile flashed across his lips. The real show was just getting to the good part.
Zephyr also noticed Rocks's distraction. He roared and unleashed even greater power. "You dare to be distracted while fighting me! Die!"
"Heavenly Authority!" Instead of retreating, Rocks advanced. A powerful repulsive force erupted from him, pushing Zephyr back several dozen meters, creating a brief opening for himself. He gave an order to his crew in a code that only they could understand. "Dinner is served. Don't let the main course get cold."
Newgate, Linlin, Wang Zhi, and the others understood. Their attacks instantly became more ferocious, pinning down their respective opponents to create opportunities for the others' actions. Gatz roared, abandoned his opponent, and charged toward another direction down the mountain with his anchor, shouting, "I'm going to see if there's anything to eat in the kitchen!" His mission was to create chaos and draw fire.
