"Eight Inner Gates!"
"First Gate: Gate of Opening, Open!!!"
Garp's roar shattered the clouds in the sky!
The next instant, an anomaly suddenly occurred!
Boom—!
A visible green steam erupted from him, and that violent life energy, like a volcanic eruption, intertwined with blue-purple lightning, forming an unprecedented, bizarre color!
Crackling!
Electric arcs madly danced, and green steam billowed and roared!
Two completely different forces merged and collided within him, finally reaching a terrifying balance!
Garp's aura surged at this moment!
It was a qualitative leap!
His already extremely tyrannical presence now broke free from an invisible shackles, rushing towards a brand new dimension!
On the ruins of the execution platform, Sengoku's pupils constricted to the size of needlepoints.
His mind was blank.
That green energy… that torrent of life, more primitive and violent than lightning… "What kind of power is this?!"
Cold sweat trickled down Aokiji's forehead; his usually lazy face showed an unbelievable shock for the first time.
Akainu gritted his teeth, lava dripping from his fists, burning holes in the ice.
He stared intently at the figure enveloped in green steam, an unsettling feeling spreading wildly within him.
Meanwhile, on the distant battlefield.
Marine Garp, who was locked in a struggle with Whitebeard, suddenly paused.
He turned his head to look at the green figure high above, a look of extreme shock flashing in his eyes.
"That is…"
Whitebeard also stopped his attack, his sharp eyes fixed on the green steam.
After a moment of silence.
He suddenly burst into laughter!
"Gurarararara!"
His laughter was incredibly hearty!
"Garp! It seems you've surpassed yourself!"
Marine Garp's face alternated between green and pale, before he too erupted in wild laughter.
"BWAHAHAHA! Although it's annoying!"
"But this old man is truly amazing!"
The laughter of the two old monsters intertwined, shaking the entire battlefield!
And on the execution platform.
Garp, enveloped in green steam, slowly raised his head.
He flexed his wrists, his knuckles cracking like popping beans.
"As expected, I'm still not quite used to it…"
He muttered to himself, a hint of regret in his tone.
But the fighting spirit burning in his eyes was more intense than ever!
"However…"
He bared his teeth, revealing their stark white.
"It's enough to deal with you all!"
Before he finished speaking!
Akainu's figure had already shot forward!
"Playing tricks!"
He sneered, his entire arm transforming into scorching lava, a concentrated lava giant fist, carrying high temperatures that could incinerate everything, fiercely slammed towards Garp's face!
This punch was enough to instantly melt a mountain peak!
However.
Facing this deadly blow, Garp didn't even throw a punch.
He just raised his leg.
An extremely simple whip kick, imbued with green steam and lightning, struck first despite being launched later!
The speed was so fast that Akainu's pupils didn't even have time to contract!
Bang!
Leg and fist collided!
There was no earth-shattering roar as imagined, only a dull, heart-stopping boom!
The cruel smile on Akainu's face instantly froze.
He felt an incomprehensible, utterly pure torrent of power emanating from the opponent's leg, crushing his lava like a destructive force!
Crack—!
The sound of bones cracking was clearly audible!
Akainu felt a tearing pain throughout his arm; he was sent flying backward like a cannonball, as if hit by a high-speed train!
Rumble—!
His body slammed heavily into the distant ice, plowing a trench hundreds of meters long, ice shards exploding and splashing along the way, the scene was extremely tragic!
One blow!
Just one blow!
Admiral, Akainu Sakazuki, was repelled head-on!
The entire field was silent!
Everyone's eyes were wide, their minds blank!
That was an Admiral!
A monster representing the Marine's highest combat power!
He was kicked away by a single whip kick?!
Garp slowly lowered his leg, twisting his neck, producing a crisp "crunch" sound.
The green steam around him continuously billowed, intertwining with lightning, forming a suffocating pressure for everyone.
"Puhahahaha!"
He laughed loudly, his laughter full of exhilaration!
"After removing the body's restrictions… it's indeed much more comfortable!"
He flexed his wrists, his gaze turning to Aokiji and Sengoku, whose faces had drastically changed.
Cold sweat rolled down Aokiji's forehead.
He took a deep breath and slammed his hands onto the ground!
"Ice Age!"
Bone-chilling cold spread wildly, the temperature of the entire battlefield plummeted, and countless thick ice pillars shot up from the ground, aiming to completely seal Garp!
At the same time, Sengoku also moved!
His body expanded again, transforming into the towering golden Buddha!
"Garp!"
His voice was like a grand bell, making everyone's eardrums ache!
"What kind of power have you acquired?!"
Garp did not answer.
He just grinned, and the green steam around him suddenly surged!
The next instant, his figure vanished from its original spot!
His speed was so fast that before Aokiji's ice pillars could close in, he had already rushed out!
"What?!"
Aokiji's pupils suddenly constricted!
This speed… was more than double what it was just now!
Garp's figure, like a green lightning bolt, instantly appeared before Aokiji!
"Too slow!"
He laughed wildly, throwing a punch!
Aokiji didn't have time to think, his entire body's cold energy condensed madly, forming a thick ice shield in front of him!
Boom!
The fist smashed onto the ice shield, and terrifying power instantly erupted!
Crack!
The ice shield shattered, and Aokiji was shaken back dozens of steps, the ice beneath his feet cracking inch by inch!
Before he could steady himself, Garp's second punch had already arrived!
"Buddha's Impact!"
At the crucial moment, Sengoku's golden giant palm descended from the sky, an invisible shockwave pressing down with a roar!
Garp looked up, battle intent boiling in his eyes!
"Good timing!"
He fiercely met it with a punch!
Rumble—!
Fist and palm collided, and space itself trembled!
Golden shockwaves and green steam clashed wildly, forming visible rings of air currents that spread in all directions!
Sengoku's pupils suddenly constricted.
He could clearly feel his shockwave being suppressed little by little by the opponent's power!
This is impossible!
How could this old bastard's power be so strong?!
Just then.
From the distant trench, a lava figure shot into the sky!
Akainu's face was terrifyingly grim; his right arm was twisted and deformed, clearly badly injured.
But in his eyes, there was only overwhelming killing intent!
"Bastard!"
He roared, the lava all over his body boiling to its extreme!
"Meteor Volcano!"
Countless giant lava fists, burning with pitch-black flames, covered the sky like a meteor shower, launching an indiscriminate, carpet bombing on Garp's position!
Aokiji also seized the opportunity, his cold energy condensing into dozens of ice spears, stabbing at Garp from all directions!
Sengoku's golden giant palm pressed down again; the sky was a rain of lava, the ground was extreme ice spears, and above his head was the golden giant palm suppressing everything!
