"Momamamama, you two old farts have really aged terribly."
"Brian, I'll take the old ghost on the left. Any objections?"
"Fine. Then I'll handle the old geezer in the back. Let's make this quick, Linlin."
"Got it, got it. When I make a move, I'm nothing like that useless weakling Shiki."
Two figures of vastly different sizes instantly appeared before Tengu and Kappa.
Looking up, they turned out to be Brian and Charlotte Linlin.
The pair gave Tengu and Kappa no chance to react.
After casually dividing their opponents between them with a few words, they immediately opened with their ultimate moves.
"Momamama, Sky Fire~"
"Beast · Tiger Leopard Double Fists~"
Under the effect of the Soul-Soul Fruit, Prometheus, who had been following Linlin all along, instantly released massive flames.
These flames rapidly converged, triggering a tremendous explosion.
"What?"
"Iron Body!"
Tengu barely had time to react, and his Armament Haki was somewhat restricted.
He could only hastily employ Iron Body in response.
The outcome was predictable.
Tengu's hunched figure was instantly blasted away by the explosion, sent flying into the sky before barely managing to halt.
"Cough, cough~"
"Damn pirates, damn it."
His entire body charred black, this was the first time in Tengu's life he had been in such a wretched state.
From childhood to adulthood, he had lived in privilege, and as he grew older, he advanced with ease.
Rising steadily through the ranks, he climbed from Rear Admiral to the pinnacle position of Admiral.
As a World Government noble successor second only to the Celestial Dragons.
Tengu's life could be described as exceptionally smooth.
Although this had much to do with his own strength.
What truly influenced everything was his family background.
Unfortunately, Linlin's attacks wouldn't hesitate just because of someone's family background.
After Sky Fire proved effective, Linlin showed no intention of stopping her assault.
Strike while the iron is hot, Linlin launched another fierce attack.
"Sky Fireball!"
Prometheus spat out a massive fireball that struck Tengu directly, blasting him another several dozen meters away.
"Thunderclap Drum!"
Beside Prometheus, Zeus simultaneously exerted its power.
The seemingly small cloud released astonishing lightning, a bolt striking down and hitting Tengu squarely.
"Thunder!"
"Thunderclap Drum!"
...
Under Linlin's overwhelming offensive, Tengu was tossed around like a ball, completely unable to mount a defense.
Beaten back and forth, he had no capacity to resist at all.
His already severely injured body couldn't recover in the slightest, forced to endure silently.
"Pfft~"
"Pfft~"
Iron Body was no longer effective; vomiting blood was the only thing Tengu could currently manage.
Meanwhile, what Kappa was enduring nearby wasn't much different from Tengu's situation.
When Brian employed his Tiger Leopard Double Fists, a tiger and a leopard—two black animal forms—instantly materialized.
"Roar~"
Attacking simultaneously from left and right, they assailed Kappa.
"Hmph, mere pirates."
"I was conquering the seas before you were even born, how dare you act so arrogantly."
Kappa had battled across the seas for many years, and though aged and decrepit, his reactions were far better than Tengu's.
"Tempest Kick - Dazzling!"
With a swift movement of his feet, numerous slashes materialized in the air, launching a rapid counterattack against Brian's assault from all directions.
Boom~
An explosion erupted as all these slashes struck the two Armament Haki-infused creatures, triggering a violent blast.
Whoosh~
Through the dust raised by the explosion, two ethereal creatures leaped out swiftly, instantly appearing beside Kappa.
"What?"
Kappa's expression shifted abruptly. He hadn't expected his Six Styles techniques to be completely ineffective at neutralizing the opponent's attack.
At this moment, his Armament Haki was temporarily unusable, requiring time to recover from its shattered state.
With no time to react, he had no choice but to employ Iron Body for defense.
"Iron Body!"
A hurried layer of metallic protection enveloped his body, but Kappa's face still showed clear panic.
Boom~
Sure enough, the two creatures followed closely, instantly biting into Kappa's body and inflicting terrifying damage.
A massive mushroom cloud billowed upward, sending Kappa flying high into the sky.
"Guh~"
The terrifying force pierced through Kappa's body, causing severe destruction.
His already aged body fractured instantly at this moment, leaving Kappa critically wounded.
But just like with Linlin, Brian showed no mercy, having long prepared his battle strategy.
He immediately pressed the attack, following up with another lethal move.
"Beast: Flying Dragon Claw!"
The form of a Wyvern materialized behind Brian, its claws razor-sharp as a powerful, explosive slash shot forth with lightning speed.
Swish~
Effortlessly, it tore away a large chunk of flesh from Kappa's chest.
A closer look revealed the still-beating crimson heart amidst the bloody mess.
"Beast - Griffin Tornado Cutter!"
A griffin silhouette took shape, coated in black Armament Haki.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a massive brown tornado that sucked the severely wounded Kappa into its vortex.
"Guh~"
"Cough cough, Iron Body!"
Crack~
Crack~
Countless tornado blades embodying the power of wind unleashed their devastating destructive force at this moment.
Though Kappa struggled with all his might after being drawn into the tornado, it was already futile.
Within this sky-piercing, seemingly endless whirlwind,
his Iron Body was quickly completely worn away, his body making contact with the tornado and being sliced away piece by piece.
Subsequently, these flesh and blood fragments were completely ground to dust within the tornado.
"Ah~"
His final scream marked Kappa's last trace of existence in this world.
As the tornado dissipated, a gleaming skeleton fell from the sky into the ocean, disappearing without a trace.
This was Kappa - now stripped of all flesh and blood.
The current Navy Admiral, Kappa, was declared dead!
"Mamamama, not bad at all, kid Brian."
Nearby, Charlotte Linlin sensed Kappa's complete disappearance and let out a hearty laugh.
Around her, Admiral Tengu was still being treated like a ball,
constantly kicked around by Prometheus and Zeus using their ultimate techniques.
Linlin herself had been quietly watching the spectacle while eating a freshly produced cake.
Seeing Brian finish off his opponent, Linlin's expression turned serious, and she decided not to drag things out any longer.
"Mamamama, then let this mama wrap up today's battle too."
"Really quite boring, these old Admiral geezers have really fallen far from their former strength."
"Napoleon~"
"Yes, Mama~"
At her summons, the hat on Linlin's head instantly took on human-like characteristics.
This was one of the three powerful Homies transformed by Linlin.
Immediately after, Napoleon rapidly changed shape, transforming into a massive Emperor Sword that was grasped in Linlin's hand.
"Emperor Sword - Break-Break Blade!"
Prometheus in the sky spewed out massive flames, its energy visibly diminishing.
These enormous flames converged onto Napoleon.
With a swing of Linlin's hand, a gigantic slash materialized out of thin air, cutting straight toward Tengu.
"Damn it~~~"
Tengu, who had been bouncing around in the sky like a ball and was already at death's door,
let out his final roar in this world, similar to what Kappa had done.
In an instant, under Linlin's massive slash,
Tengu was perfectly bisected from head to toe.
Thud~
The two halves of the corpse fell directly into the sea, where they were promptly eaten by a passing Sea King.
The current Navy Admiral, Tengu, was declared dead!
Both Admirals who had come to the New World were now confirmed dead.
The entire battle had taken only a few minutes, as quick as a flash.
If this news spread, it would surely shock the world once again.
So, what were Sengoku, Garp, and Zephyr doing?
Why did they stand by and watch as the two Admirals were fatally wounded by Brian and Linlin without taking any action?
