"As for retaliating against the Navy?"
Kevin slowly drew the Supreme Grade Swords from his waist.
"Don't be too confident, I don't have much interest in the Navy, I just can't stand the actions of those fat pigs, a bunch of trash, daring to call themselves gods."
Kevin slowly gathered his strength.
"Captain, Navy Headquarters support will arrive in one hour and 38 minutes."
Violet stated the precise time.
Measuring the distance.
Plus the speed of the warship, the time was obtained.
"Good, continue monitoring."
Kevin put down the telephone transponder snail.
"Kevin is going to join the battle."
Everyone's eyes widened.
Today, whether the unprecedented scene of a Fleet Admiral dying in battle would occur was right before their eyes.
Everyone held their breath.
They didn't even dare to breathe.
Whitebeard picked up his sake pot but didn't drink, just afraid of missing any details.
His old "917" opponent.
Is he going to die?
"Pops, is the Fleet Admiral really going to die here?" Diamond Jozu and the others were both excited and incredulous.
"Sengoku has a greater chance of survival; even though he looks miserable, he can still hold on."
Whitebeard believed that Sengoku's strength wouldn't allow him to die so easily.
As long as he held on.
If he persisted until reinforcements arrived, he would be safe.
"Kevin, what did you do to my family?" The enraged Doflamingo, with veins bulging on his face, questioned Kevin.
Kevin turned sideways: "You're still here?"
He almost overlooked this minor character.
"Hancock."
Kevin called Hancock back.
With Jinbe and Tyrant Kuma.
They were enough to resist the Navy.
Even Crocodile and Gekko Moriah made their moves; they had already realized that becoming a Shichibukai was unlikely, so they were pirates.
Naturally opposed to the Navy.
They would still be continuously besieged by the Navy in the future.
It was a good opportunity to beat a dog while it was down; Crocodile wanted to establish a connection with Kevin through this, and Gekko Moriah was after the Navy's shadows.
Their intervention.
The Navy was completely at a disadvantage.
"Betty, Hancock, I'll leave him to you two."
Kevin instructed the two women.
"Okay."
Betty put down the telephone transponder snail.
Doflamingo clenched his fists.
The moment he spoke, he regretted it, and now seeing Kevin so disdainful and dismissive of him, rage consumed his reason.
He rushed towards Kevin recklessly.
But Hancock blocked him: "You are not worthy to fight our Captain."
...
"The most critical moment has arrived."
Sengoku gritted his teeth.
Looking at Kevin walking towards him.
A three-person encirclement became a four-person encirclement.
Coupled with Kevin's combat power.
The danger level doubled.
Sengoku collected his thoughts and made a plan: for the next one or two hours, he would only defend and not counterattack; no matter what, he had to hold on.
"ROOM."
Kevin instantly vanished.
Sengoku's pupils dilated.
"Divine Strike - Golden Crow Patrols the Sky!"
Kevin instantly swapped positions with a rock behind Sengoku.
This was Belo Betty's Ope-Ope no Mi ability.
No one had time to react.
Sengoku's attention was entirely focused on what was in front of him.
He had no time to turn around, and the top-tier Armament Haki covering his front desperately crawled towards his back.
A brilliant golden sword light.
Collided abruptly with the Great Buddha's shimmering golden back.
"Boom!"
A surge of energy shot into the sky, rapidly spreading, shattering the ground which disappeared layer by layer, and turning shattered stones into invisible dust before they could even splatter.
Pfft!
Spitting blood, coupled with the blood rain splattering from his back.
Sengoku transformed into a streak of light and flew forward.
"Heavenly Thunder - Divine Punishment."
A bolt of heavenly thunder descended, catching up to the retreating Buddha Sengoku.
"Phoenix Roaming the Heavens!" The flames burning on Gion's body transformed into a phoenix, spreading its wings and soaring high, pursuing Sengoku.
"Dark Fist!"
Darkness enveloped Shaki's fist.
A pitch-black, silent fist advanced as if teleporting through the air.
"King of Hell's Road Exploration."
Kevin also followed up with a move.
Four techniques simultaneously caught up to Sengoku.
"I won't die!"
Sengoku, enveloped by the crisis of death, roared furiously.
A powerful Conqueror's Haki burst forth, wrapping around his body.
He was sent flying backward.
Other than taking the hit head-on, there was no other way.
"Rumble!"
All attacks converged at one point.
Forming an explosion ring compressed to the extreme.
Red, black, gold, white...
Energy constantly transformed...
Cracks in the air spread wildly within the explosion ring.
The explosion ring instantly expanded, devouring everything.
"Whoosh!"
Kevin stepped forward, the ground cracked, and his entire body seemed to be covered in golden burning flames, transforming him into a god-like figure.
Instead of retreating, he advanced.
He charged into the terrifying explosion ring that sent shivers down everyone's spines.
Dragging his blade, he charged wildly.
"You?"
Sengoku, covered in cracks and spurting blood, gritting his teeth and enduring the assault, stared blankly at Kevin, who had shattered the explosion and arrived.
Not giving even a moment's time.
Once the battle started...
He wouldn't give me any time to recover.
So ruthless.
"Thunder God's Road Exploration."
Kevin, advancing with his dragging blade, flicked the blade, and leaping lightning condensed on the edge, forming a sharp beam of electricity.
"Boom!"
Intense collisions crackled and popped within the explosion ring.
"You two, don't come in for now."
Gion glanced at Stussy and Shaki.
Their combat power.
If they entered such a terrifying explosion, they could easily be severely injured.
After the warning.
Gion was about to enter the explosion.
Sengoku flew out.
He appeared in everyone's line of sight.
"Is this Buddha Sengoku?"
Even those most familiar with Sengoku couldn't recognize him.
He was completely unrecognizable.
Covered in blood, the Fleet Admiral's coat, a symbol of his honor and the highest rank in the Navy, was already tattered.
His golden Buddha physique, once shining, was now dim and covered in cracks.
He looked like a dilapidated Buddha statue, weathered by centuries of wind and rain.
A hole pierced through his chest, revealing his faintly beating heart.
His back was torn open, his bloody spine exposed to the air.
Half of one hand was gone.
One leg was bent at an unnatural angle.
The level of misery one could imagine was no more than this.
What was particularly tragic was that he was a Fleet Admiral, one of the most powerful figures in the sea, an existence once looked up to by all.
Even the most arrogant pirates in the sea, when facing Buddha Sengoku, could at most meet his gaze, no one could claim to look down on him.
Yet, such a prominent figure.
Had now become someone everyone instinctively pitied and felt sorry for.
The shock in their hearts was indescribable.
