The Strongest Lunarian in One Piece

"Buzz—Buzz—"

At El's command, the increasingly powerful war machine of the Fallen Angel Pirates roared to life.

In just three days, three massive fleets were assembled, comprising over 30,000 crew members, an additional 50,000 Homies soldiers, and more than 100 warships. Led by the three "Calamities"—Thunder Calamity Cyril Oka, Wind Calamity Irma Irene, and Flame Calamity Afar—they set out in a grand march toward the G-11 fortress, making no effort to conceal their objective.

The declaration of intent sent shockwaves across the seas, causing even the World Government and Marine Headquarters to grow alarmed.

…

Holy Land, Mary Geoise

"What!?"

"That bastard…"

"His goal is to eliminate the Marine fortresses in the New World?"

"Damn it, he's too good at picking his timing! Right when Rocks is causing chaos everywhere!"

The Five Elders, upon receiving the report, were both shocked and furious. Initially, they had been relieved that Totto Land's Kingdom seemed uninterested in interfering with the war between Marine Headquarters and the Rocks Pirates. But now, Fallen Angel El had suddenly ordered his pirate fleet to move, targeting the Marine fortresses in the latter half of the New World.

"Although El doesn't seem intent on taking action personally, this cunning man must not be underestimated," said Saint Mars. Holding his abdomen in thought, he continued, "And with his strong subordinates, I fear G-11 can't hold out."

"It's not just G-11. I suspect his ambitions extend much further," added Saint Nasujuro, clutching the first-generation Kitetsu sword. "That bastard is clearly determined to stop the Marines from rebuilding any major fortresses and to use this chance to drive them completely out of the New World."

Saint Saturn, leaning on his cane from the sofa, spoke gravely:

"The expedition fleet has returned to the G-1 Fortress, and the rebellious Seven Warlords have scattered. Meanwhile, Black Bear and Iron Bone are stationed at G-5, and the Holy Knights have been deployed to guard G-1 against a Rocks attack. G-11 Fortress is too far away to reinforce in time."

Saint Ju Peter frowned from his seat on the sofa. "So, do we abandon G-11?"

"What other choice do we have?" Saint Mars said helplessly, pressing his hands on the sofa's backrest. "We must admit that the strength of these New World pirates is overwhelming. With the current Marine forces in the New World, we can't maintain control of the situation. And since the Marines are also responsible for the first half of the Grand Line and the Four Seas, they can't commit most of their forces to the New World indefinitely."

"So, we must prioritize," Saint Ju Peter muttered, narrowing his eyes in thought.

"The most critical task now is to defend G-5 Fortress. It is one of the Marines' few remaining major strongholds in the New World and a vital foothold for reclaiming dominance in the future. Losing it is not an option!" Saint Valkyrie emphasized. "If G-5 falls, G-1 Fortress will be the last line of defense against these pirates, directly threatening the Holy Land."

"Order Kong and Sengoku to retreat from G-11 and fortify G-5 immediately!"

With the Five Elders' decision to withdraw to G-5, the Marines at G-11—including Kong, Sengoku, and Garp—reluctantly prepared to evacuate. Even they had to admit that the Marines' influence in the New World had significantly weakened and could no longer suppress the increasingly ambitious pirate factions. Their forces couldn't stay indefinitely, and they were fortunate that El hadn't personally led the assault.

As G-11 prepared to retreat, G-5 Fortress faced an unexpected visitor.

…

G-5 Fortress

"Huh?"

"What's that?"

"Impossible!"

"Gulp! No way…"

"It's Fallen Angel El!!!"

"The strongest creature in the world?"

"What is he doing here?"

The piercing wail of alarms echoed throughout G-5 Fortress. Thousands of Marines stared in shock and disbelief at the enormous creature hurtling toward them at breakneck speed. The colossal figure, blocking out the sun, instilled dread in the hearts of all who saw it.

"Damn it…"

"This is bad…"

"Fallen Angel El…"

The overwhelming presence sent shivers down the spines of even the Marine Vice Admirals stationed at the fortress. Soon, Admirals Black Bear and Iron Bone—who had been sent to G-5 in light of the Rocks Pirates' recent attacks—arrived. They stood solemnly, feeling the unimaginable, unrestrained aura emanating from the creature before them.

"Fallen Angel El, what is the meaning of this?" Admiral Black Bear demanded, his voice thick with killing intent. "Are you declaring total war on the World Government?"

"Marines, listen well. Starting today, G-5 Fortress will cease to exist. The New World will no longer have a place for the Marines!"

Descending from the skies, the monstrous figure radiated unparalleled menace. Its pitch-black head, crowned with golden horns and a flaming mane, and its scaly, aquamarine body resembled a dragon of legend. Four clawed limbs and two massive pairs of wings—one blue and one black—completed its terrifying form. It hovered over G-5, glaring coldly at the assembled Marines.

El's voice was devoid of emotion as he addressed the Marine leaders.

"I'm giving you a choice: leave this fortress immediately and avoid unnecessary casualties, or stay and be crushed like insects. I have no problem with the latter."

"Now, answer me—YES OR NO?"
