<><><><><><>

In an instant, the war entered a white-hot stage. Arashi's power was so wild and overwhelming that even a figure like Saint Saturn felt a sense of dread. 

More than a decade ago, he and his four colleagues had fought Arashi and personally experienced his miraculous power. 

But at this moment, clashing with him again, even in his prime form, he was still utterly shaken. 

It was clear that in the ten-plus years Arashi had spent locked away in the dark, decaying depths of Impel Down, he had somehow grown even stronger.

"Truly unbelievable!" As his body tumbled back, Saint Saturn stabbed his sharp, weapon-like spider legs into the ground, forcing himself to a stable halt and sliding a great distance. 

He snapped his head up, his eyes shooting a malicious glare through the smoke and dust toward the figure who was rapidly clashing with Saint Garling.

"VMMM!" The void trembled and distorted, but the figure continued to move with extreme speed, engaging in a fierce exchange. 

When their two swords collided, they erupted with blinding sparks. This sight caused Saint Saturn's expression to darken. 

His sneak-attack-like gaze was no longer having the same effect it did initially. This ability could instantly wipe out large numbers of Marines below the rank of Vice Admiral. 

Still, against a powerhouse like Arashi, it was only effective as a surprise attack, and even then, success was not guaranteed. The first hit likely had an element of luck to it.

"To deal with him, I'll need the strength of others!" Saint Saturn muttered. 

His eyes swept across the battlefield, noticing that more and more figures were gathering at the center. 

Blackbeard, Marshall D. Teach, had already rejoined his crew. Although he was panting for breath and his bloodied head made him look miserable, he was still ready to fight. 

On the other side, the ferociously imposing Sakazuki was covered entirely in crimson magma.

"Even an army of ants can bite an elephant to death! Arashi, on what grounds do you think you can stand against the entire world?" 

Saint Saturn murmured to himself. His gaze shifted, and two more figures were reflected in his eyes.

"Worororororo~~" "Mamamamama!" A pair of strange laughs echoed across the battlefield, yet no one who heard them dared to laugh along.

They knew all too well the meaning behind those laughs; they represented two of the sea's Emperors.

"Arashi! We don't go down that easily!" Kaido's roar thundered across the battlefield. 

The next second, lightning flashed and thunder roared as an overwhelming wave of Conqueror's Haki swept out, shaking Onigashima to its core.

"This battlefield just got a lot more interesting! Mamamama!" Big Mom's laugh came from the other side. 

The two of them, their bodies as colossal as small mountains, moved across the battlefield, kicking up a fierce wind that sent countless lower-ranking soldiers on both sides stumbling back in terror.

"They're… they're still alive!" Voices filled with shock and trembling came from the Marines.

"They may be alive, but their injuries are by no means light!" a Vice Admiral said in a low, serious voice. His face was grave, his heart filled with shock. 

Compared to Whitebeard and Shanks, these two were different. They might be weaker in terms of attack power, but their defense and stamina were on another level entirely. 

These Emperors of the Sea were truly monsters among monsters. To think they could still be alive after taking such a ferocious beating from Fleet Admiral Arashi.

"Everyone, get out of the way! That battlefield up ahead is not one you can step into! Let them pass! Fleet Admiral Arashi and the Admirals will handle them!" 

Taking a deep breath, the Vice Admiral's expression changed as he saw some Marines standing in the path of the two Emperors, and he yelled the order loudly.

The Marines received the command and immediately fell back. Their expressions were tense and serious as they turned to re-engage in the broader battle. 

In this war, the most significant pressure was actually on the lowest-ranking soldiers, who had to face an enemy that outnumbered them several times over. 

The Marines had only brought ten thousand soldiers, and with the five thousand samurai led by Vice Admiral Oden of Wano Country, their total force was only fifteen thousand. 

Their opponents, however, were a dense sea of pirates swarming over Onigashima, their numbers too great to count, back at the center of the battlefield. 

"BOOM!" 

An intense aura exploded, and a blinding light obscured everything. A torrent of black and red energy, like a massive dragon, bloomed from the longsword. 

Saint Garling's eyes widened, his entire face becoming incredibly grave. He saw Arashi holding his sword with his right hand, the very space around his vast, robust frame vibrating.

"CRACKLE!" Black and red lightning converged upon the longsword in his hand.

"Divine Departure!" In the next second, an incredibly fierce slash came hurtling toward him. Saint Garling's face changed drastically. 

He held his sword with both hands, bringing it up horizontally in front of him to block the attack. But in an instant, he realized his mistake.

"BOOM!" 

Before the sword even reached him, the ground beneath his feet and the space behind him collapsed first. 

His crescent-moon-shaped hair and beard were instantly twisted and warped, pulled straight back until they were parallel to the ground. 

Then, an unstoppable force, like a raging river, roared and howled as it crashed into him. This single slash made him feel his insignificance. 

In a mere instant, Saint Garling spat a mouthful of blood into the air as his body was sent flying backward. 

But after flying for a thousand meters, he was caught firmly by a single person, who then skidded another hundred meters across the ground before coming to a stop.

"Shanks!" 

Saint Garling gritted his teeth against the excruciating pain all over his body and turned his head to look at the man who had caught him.

"He was never someone you could face alone! You all still know nothing of his true power!" Shanks said in a deep voice. 

In an instant, his eyes locked onto their opponent. His Conqueror's Haki erupted, crashing violently against the opposing aura.

At the same time, everyone else arrived on the scene. "Worororo!" Kaido laughed as he released his own Conqueror's Haki. 

"Mamamama!" Big Mom laughed as well, her Conqueror's Haki radiating outwards.

"Fuffuffuffuffo! A party this lively can't happen without me!" 

Doflamingo appeared with the Donquixote Family, standing behind Arashi, his eyes fixed sharply on the crowd before them. 

Without a doubt, the enemies standing before Arashi were all world-renowned powerhouses. Confronting them would put immense pressure even on him.

Silently, two more figures appeared behind him. "Bartholomew Kuma! Gecko Moria!" Doflamingo said quietly.

"Kishishishi, my opponent," Gecko Moria laughed, slowly raising his right hand and pointing toward the massive figure in the distance. 

"Is Kaido!" As he spoke the name, his eyes instantly turned red, and boundless hatred surged from his heart. 

How many years had it been! His downfall, his ruin, it was all that man's fault. 

If he hadn't met Arashi, he would never have had the chance or the strength to get his revenge. But now, he had finally found hope.

"Fuffuffuffuffo! Quite courageous, aren't we, Moria? Just as expected of a Warlord!" Doflamingo exclaimed, but even when his praise was sincere, his tone still sounded like mockery.

"Kishishishishi. Likewise, Doflamingo!" Moria chuckled.

"And do not forget me!" a female voice followed. Arashi did not turn his head. 

His gaze remained fixed forward, panning across the figures arriving one by one, forming a semi-circle that trapped him in the middle. 

There were many enemies. Although he felt no fear, too many flies were undoubtedly annoying. He did indeed need help.

"The former Seven Warlords of the Sea! You've gathered all of them, haven't you, Arashi!" Saint Saturn said grimly.

"Your partners are certainly interesting. In the past, you would have wanted nothing more than to eradicate them, yet now you fight alongside them," Arashi replied with a smile.

"Enough with the chatter! Arashi! You've certainly made many enemies!" Kaido bellowed.

"No matter how many ants there are, what does it matter?" Arashi smiled faintly.

"Arrogant!" Kaido roared in fury. His face was bruised and swollen, and even in his half-beast form, the wounds on his body were impossible to hide. 

His aura was like an erupting volcano, surging madly forward. Not far away, Saint Saturn, Saint Garling, Red-Haired Shanks, and the others were also using their auras to pressure Arashi at the center.

"Zehahahaha! Do you see this, Sakazuki? What a breathtaking scene! It's like the entire world is targeting Arashi!" 

"How magnificent! Even as his enemy, I have to say it. I admire him!" Marshall D. Teach said with a great laugh.

Sakazuki was silent, his eyes fixed on Arashi. The situation Arashi was in, surrounded by a crowd of the world's strongest, was indeed enough to make anyone's scalp tingle. 

If it were him, he suddenly froze, because if he were to switch places, to be the one standing in the center, it was a scenario he dared not even imagine. 

He had to admit one thing. In terms of strength, this opponent had already left him far behind.

And across the battlefield, the countless Marines and pirates watching this battle also felt their hearts tremble as they all stared at the scene. 

The auras collided high in the sky, creating ripples as if several lakes were crashing into each other above their heads. 

Everyone felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on their chest, making it hard to breathe.

"To be targeted by so many powerhouses! The Marine Fleet Admiral, Arashi! How can he possibly fight against so many strong opponents?"

"Look at the enemies standing before him! My god, it's simply unbelievable."

"Blackbeard, Marshall D. Teach, former Marine HQ Admiral and current Vice-Captain of the Blackbeard Pirates, Sakazuki!"

"Kaido of the Beasts! Emperor Big Mom!"

"Red-Haired Shanks!"

"The World's Strongest Swordsman, Dracule 'Hawk-Eye' Mihawk!"

"That man from the World Government, believed to be one of the Five Elders, addressed as Saint Saturn!"

"The mysterious God's Knights, who were once only heard of in rumors."

One astonished exclamation after another came from the mouths of the pirates. 

"What kind of pressure is this! If we were standing there, our bones would probably be crushed by these powerhouses alone!"

"Even the sky has gone still!"

"The surrounding sea has fallen silent!" The onlookers spoke trembling words. The atmosphere on Onigashima changed instantly. 

Surrounded by the world, Arashi faced a pressure that others had never considered, or even dared to imagine. This was unprecedented!

"Whooshhhhhh~" The wind grew stronger, stirring dust into the air.

Suddenly. "HAHAHAHAHA!"

A loud laugh erupted from Arashi's mouth, growing louder and louder. His face became increasingly ferocious and twisted. 

Along with the laughter, his face, which still somewhat resembled a human's, rapidly transformed, turning into a jet-black, flat plane that looked as if it were cast from steel, with only eyes and small nostrils visible. 

Tiny black lines began to race across the surface of his skin. These lines quickly covered his entire body, and in an instant, his skin turned pitch black. 

The wings on his back grew even larger, yet became more streamlined and aerodynamic. Arashi had fully entered his ultimate combat state!

Awakened Beast Form! 

This was his most comprehensive and robust fighting form. Standing at a height of 10.88 meters, his speed, strength, and defense were all pushed to their absolute peak! 

After eating the Kunpeng Fruit, Arashi used his spare time to research the fruit's awakened transformation secretly. 

After considering various factors, he finally achieved this first-stage awakening. It was a form that found the perfect ratio between his human and beast forms, a perfect transformation. 

The ribbon-like sashes around his neck and limbs gradually dissipated, replaced by arcs of intensely crackling blue lightning.

"A war against the world? Then bring it on!" Arashi roared. With almost no hesitation or delay, he bent his knees and shot forward. 

A gentle flap of his wings caused the very air to distort, and his figure vanished in an instant. 

The moment Arashi moved, a figure behind Saint Garling also drew his weapon and charged toward Arashi in a flash. 

In a split second, the two met in mid-air. "You're a mere Marine Fleet Admiral, don't be so arrogant!" the attacker shouted, swinging his longsword. 

Arashi's expression remained unchanged; a mocking smile even appeared on his lips.

In a flash, they were face to face. The man swung his sword, but Arashi simply reached out a hand in a plain, unremarkable gesture. It took only a moment. 

The body of the God's Knights member froze abruptly, his neck seized by a large hand. Like a mouse pinned by a cat, he was completely immobilized. 

The next second. Arashi casually pushed down. 

"BOOM!" 

The God's Knight's head, leading his entire body, was slammed into the ground, kicking up a massive cloud of dust. 

After finishing this effortlessly, Arashi flapped his wings again, and his figure vanished once more.

"Is no one going to make the first move? Then I'll go first!" Kaido sneered, feeling contempt for the group. 

They had already decided to besiege their opponent, yet they were still holding back. His body shot forward almost instantly, his iron club swinging down viciously. 

Arashi threw a punch, and amid the turbulent air, the two clashed again. 

"BOOM!"

Surge of power erupted, and Kaido's face twisted in a grimace. In that single punch, he felt a terrifying force that surpassed anything he had felt before. 

Three seconds, only a mere three seconds passed. Kaido let out a tremendous roar as he was sent flying backward by the force of the punch. 

The moment he was repelled, everyone else moved at once. From all directions, countless figures rushed toward Arashi. 

"With his current strength! He's not someone whom just one person can handle!" 

"Everyone, attack together! Let's see just where the limits are for this man they call invincible!" Saint Saturn roared. 

His spider legs, like steel needles, stabbed into the ground, punching holes in it. The next second, his body leaped high into the air, pouncing toward Arashi. 

At the same time, everyone else charged forward. Blackbeard, Marshall D. Teach, laughed maniacally, his face a mask of ferocity.

His right fist clenched around a black vortex, and his entire body's speed increased in an instant. 

"Speed x100!" 

With a mere flicker in the air, he was the first to arrive in front of Arashi. This was the exact moment Kaido was sent flying. 

"Zehahahaha!" Marshall D. Teach sneered, his right fist swinging toward Arashi.

"Teach!" Arashi looked up and grinned. Their eyes met, and to Arashi's surprise, Marshall D. Teach's eyes no longer held any fear or hesitation, but rather a frenzied excitement. 

"Interesting! It seems you've gained some confidence! Teach!" He clenched his right fist and threw a simple, no-frills punch. 

"Power x100!" Marshall D. Teach roared. 

Ever since he ate the More-More Fruit, he had become addicted to its powerful amplification. If combined with his Dark-Dark Fruit, he was practically invincible.

"BOOM!" The two fists collided violently. In that instant, both of their expressions changed slightly. 

Marshall D. Teach was shocked by the sheer ferocity and power of his opponent, who had met his 100x amplified punch head-on. Arashi, on the other hand, was surprised by the man's cunning and ruthlessness. 

The power of the Dark-Dark Fruit had instantly nullified his own fruit's abilities, followed immediately by a surge of power far greater than what Teach should possess. 

Recalling a document he had once seen in his office, Arashi's expression suddenly turned serious.

"The power of the More-More Fruit? Teach, you truly are a man who cannot be underestimated!" As he spoke in a low voice, the strength in his right arm surged once more. 

"BOOM!" 

The air vibrated, sending out ripples of sound. Marshall D. Teach was sent flying backward, his feet carving trenches dozens of meters long in the ground. 

"Zehahahaha! The Marine intelligence network is sharp, isn't it!"

"That's right, I took down Byrnndi World and seized his power! It may not compare to Pops's Tremor-Tremor Fruit, but it can be perfectly fused and coordinated with my Dark-Dark Fruit." 

As he was proudly boasting about his power, being able to clash head-on with Arashi, two figures beside him stepped forward and leaped high into the air. 

The gleam of swords shone brightly as two figures, one from the left and one from the right, swung their blades down at their opponent.

"No one has the time to listen to you explain yourself here! Marshall D. Teach!" Sakazuki charged forward, his fists roiling with magma. 

"You're ruining the mood! Zehahahaha!" Marshall D. Teach covered his embarrassment with a laugh, his eyes focused ahead. 

At that moment, right after his attack, the ones launching an assault on Arashi were none other than Red-Haired Shanks and Hawkeye Mihawk. 

One was the successor to the former Pirate King, Gol D. Roger.

The other was the man known as the World's Strongest Swordsman. Without a doubt, their swordsmanship was top-tier in the world, and their combat prowess was not to be underestimated. 

"Divine Departure!" 

"Night Blade Slash!"

The brilliant light of their blades illuminated Onigashima, slashing toward Arashi in a crisscrossing pattern from the left and right. 

This combined attack from two master swordsmen was brutal to dodge; one could even say that Arashi, being so close, had no way to avoid it.

The next second, he drew the longsword from his waist with his right hand, and his entire body erupted with Conqueror's Haki. 

"CRACKLE!" 

The sword in his hand burst forth with black and red lightning as his ferocious Haki radiated in all directions. 

Then, without making any move to dodge, Arashi swung his blade with one hand, meeting the two slashes head-on. 

"Sovereign's Slash!" 

The black and red blade energy swelled in an instant, colliding with the two intersecting slashes before him.

"VWOOM!" 

A great wind spread out, blowing in all directions. The three slashes collided and merged, exploding in a blinding light that forced everyone to close their eyes. 

After a moment, the light finally dissipated. People saw the three slashes, now combined, shooting up toward the sky and crashing into the deep, starry expanse. 

"A combined attack from Emperor Red-Hair and Hawk-Eye Mihawk! They're really… ganging up on Arashi!" 

Everyone stared in disbelief; the scene was so surreal that it felt like a dream. But what was even more unbelievable was that Arashi had withstood it.

The attacks from Kaido, the God's Knight, Marshall D. Teach, Red-Haired Shanks, and Hawk-Eye Mihawk were separated by no more than a second or two, creating an incredibly dense offensive rhythm. 

Yet Arashi had firmly blocked them all. 

"Arashi!" Suddenly, a tremendous roar was heard. A scorching meteor shot up into the sky. "The Vice-Captain of the Blackbeard Pirates, Sakazuki!"

Someone shouted the attacker's name. Arashi looked up, his eyes reflecting the sky-covering, densely packed fire-colored meteors, each one billowing with thick smoke and shaped like a fist. 

He stood there quietly, making no move for the moment. Suddenly, a figure leaped up from behind him. 

"Fuffuffuffuffo! Fleet Admiral Arashi has people behind him, too, you know! For you all to act like this, are you taking us too lightly?" Doflamingo's voice rang out.
