.
After several more minutes of discussion—
The meeting finally reached its conclusion.
The atmosphere inside the room remained extremely heavy.
Every single decision made here would affect the entire world.
Finally—
Kong slowly stood up.
The room immediately became silent.
Then Fleet Admiral Kong spoke in a firm voice, “Then it’s settled.”
He looked toward the officers one by one before continuing.
“I will personally head toward Mary Geoise.”
“The Celestial Dragons must still be protected.”
Even though several officers disliked that decision—
Nobody objected.
Because they knew there was no choice.
Then Kong continued,
“Zephyr will remain on standby to intercept any pirates coming from the New World.”
Zephyr nodded silently.
Kong then looked toward another Admiral.
“I’m sending Admiral Yeti to intercept Kaido.”
“According to our intelligence, Kaido is also beginning to move.”
Several Vice Admirals immediately became tense hearing another Emperor’s name added into the situation.
Then Kong continued,
“Garp and Sengoku will remain at Marineford.”
“They will personally oversee Roger’s execution and prepare to confront Shiki.”
The room became even heavier.
Because everyone knew—
If Shiki truly attacked Marineford—
The battle would shake the entire world.
Finally—
Kong’s gaze turned serious.
“And Ramon…”
“He will be sent to intercept Douglas Bullet.”
The moment those words were spoken—
The room became silent for a brief moment.
Then—
Everyone slowly nodded.
No objections appeared.
Because deep down—
Everyone agreed.
Among the younger Marines—
Only Ramon possessed enough strength to face Bullet directly.
Kong looked around the room one final time.
“Any objections?”
Silence.
None.
Then Kong slammed his fist onto the table lightly.
“Good.”
“Move immediately.”
The meeting ended instantly.
Soon—
Marine Headquarters entered complete mobilization.
Orders spread throughout the entire base.
Warships departed nonstop.
Elite Marines moved across the seas rapidly.
Cannons were prepared.
Fortifications strengthened.
The entire world government had entered a state of emergency.
Meanwhile—
A few hours later—
Garp finally returned to Marineford together with Sengoku.
Neither of them spoke much.
But the moment they arrived—
Preparations began immediately.
Both monsters personally started preparing Marineford’s defenses against Shiki.
Massive cannons were repositioned.
Warships surrounded the island.
Elite Vice Admirals gathered one after another.
Meanwhile—
Elsewhere across the seas—
The other forces had also begun moving.
Shiki was approaching Marineford with floating islands.
Whitebeard’s fleet continued sailing through the seas.
Douglas Bullet rampaged toward Loguetown.
And deep within Impel Down—
The Pirate King calmly awaited his execution.
The next day—
The seas near the end of the Grand Line had already become chaotic.
Pirates were running wildly across the oceans.
Marine ships were moving nonstop.
Everywhere—
People were talking about only one thing.
The execution of the Pirate King.
Meanwhile—
Far away from all the chaos—
Douglas Bullet was moving rapidly from island to island.
BOOM.
Each jump shattered the ground beneath him.
His monstrous physique moved like a cannonball across the sea.
Soon—
Bullet arrived at Whisky Peak.
The island trembled slightly the moment he landed.
Pirates nearby immediately hid in fear.
Nobody dared approach him.
Bullet ignored everyone completely.
He was just about to jump again toward the next island—
When suddenly—
His Observation Haki flared violently.
Bullet stopped.
Then slowly turned his head toward the ocean.
From far away—
A Marine ship was approaching rapidly.
The speed was unbelievable.
Waves split apart as the ship cut through the sea.
And at the very front of the ship—
A figure stood there calmly.
Arms crossed.
Justice coat fluttering violently in the wind.
The terrifying pressure surrounding him alone caused the ocean nearby to tremble slightly.
That person was none other than—
Monkey D.
Ramon.
The Marine Vice Admiral personally assigned to intercept Bullet.
Meanwhile—
The moment Bullet sensed Ramon’s presence—
A grin slowly appeared across his face.
Then—
He started laughing loudly.
“HAHAHAHAHAHA!!”
“You Marines really think Roger could be captured that easily?!”
“Don’t make me laugh!”
The next second—
BOOM!!
A terrifying burst of Conqueror’s Haki exploded from Bullet’s body.
The air itself distorted.
Dark blue lightning crackled wildly around him.
The sky trembled.
Even the clouds above began splitting apart slightly from the pressure.
Pirates nearby instantly collapsed unconscious foam forming from their mouths.
Meanwhile—
On the approaching Marine ship—
Ramon chuckled lightly seeing this.
“Heh…”
“So this is the pressure of Roger’s former crewmate…”
Then—
Without hesitation—
Ramon released his own Conqueror’s Haki.
BOOOOOOM!!!
The entire ocean shook violently.
Unlike ordinary Conqueror’s Haki—
Ramon’s aura looked completely abnormal.
Dark purple.
Almost machine-like and unnatural.
Purple-black lightning exploded around him wildly.
The pressure was so dense that the wooden deck beneath his feet started cracking instantly.
The Marines behind Ramon immediately grabbed onto the ship desperately to avoid collapsing.
Then—
The two terrifying Conqueror’s Hakis collided directly in midair.
BOOOOOOOM!!!
The sky split apart violently.
Dark blue and dark purple lightning clashed nonstop across the heavens.
The ocean beneath them exploded upward.
Massive waves rose around both sides.
Even the clouds above began tearing apart.
Meanwhile—
Bullet’s grin widened further.
His battle spirit exploded upward instantly.
“Good!!”
“Very good!!”
“So the Marines finally sent someone interesting!!”
Meanwhile—
Ramon slowly uncrossed his arms.
A maniac smile appeared on his face as well.
The excitement within him had already started boiling.
Finally—
He spoke calmly.
“Douglas Bullet.”
“I was told to stop you.”
“But honestly…”
Ramon cracked his knuckles loudly.
“I’m more interested in fighting you than arresting you.”
The next second—
Both monsters disappeared from their spots simultaneously.
Before anyone could even blink—
Both Ramon and Douglas Bullet vanished from their positions simultaneously.
BOOM!!!
A massive explosion erupted high above the sea.
The clouds split apart instantly.
Fist collided against fist directly in midair.
Neither side backed down.
The space between their fists distorted violently from the pressure alone.
Dark blue and dark purple lightning exploded around them nonstop.
Conqueror’s Haki surged wildly across the heavens.
The ocean below trembled violently.
Huge waves rose upward in every direction.
Meanwhile—
The Marines aboard the ship widened their eyes in shock.
One Marine muttered nervously,
“They… clashed head-on…”
Another swallowed hard.
“Their fists didn’t even touch…”
Above the sea—
Ramon and Bullet stared directly into each other’s eyes.
Both grinning.
Both excited.
Then—
BOOOOOOM!!!
A second shockwave exploded outward from their clash.
The surrounding air cracked violently.
Several nearby rocks shattered instantly from the pressure.
Meanwhile—
Bullet smirked fiercely.
His muscles bulged slightly.
“You’re strong, brat!”
Ramon laughed loudly in response.
“Ku-hahahaha!”
“You’re not bad either!”
Then suddenly—
Both of them pushed harder simultaneously.
BOOOOM!!!
Another explosion erupted.
This time—
Both monsters were blasted backward through the air.
Bullet spun once before instantly using Moonwalk.
BOOM.
He landed heavily atop Whisky Peak.
The island cracked slightly beneath his feet.
Meanwhile—
Ramon also kicked the air repeatedly using Moonwalk before landing on the island from the opposite side.
BOOM.
Dust rose around him.
His coat fluttered wildly in the air.
Meanwhile—
The Marines aboard the ship immediately started retreating farther away from the island.
Nobody dared remain close.
Because they all knew one thing very clearly.
Once Ramon became serious in battle—
Nobody was allowed to interfere.
Not because he disliked help.
But because anyone nearby could die from the shockwaves alone.
Bogard stood silently at the front of the ship watching the island carefully.
One Marine nervously asked,
“Vice Admiral Bogard…”
“Should we support Vice Admiral Ramon?”
Bogard immediately shook his head.
“No.”
“If you get close…”
“You’ll only become collateral damage.”
The Marine swallowed hard and stepped back silently.
Meanwhile—
On the island—
Bullet slowly cracked his neck.
The air around him vibrated violently from the sheer pressure of his strength.
Then he grinned wildly.
“HAHAHAHA!!”
“This is what I wanted!”
“A real fight!!”
Meanwhile—
Ramon rolled his shoulders slightly before tightening his fists.
Dark purple lightning crackled around his arms.
The excitement in his eyes had already reached its peak.
Then—
Without another word—
Both monsters charged toward each other again simultaneously.
BOOOOOM!!!
BOOOOOM!!!
The instant their fists collided again—
The entire island shook violently.
Both Ramon’s and Douglas Bullet’s fists were coated with advanced Armament Haki and Conqueror’s Haki coating.
Dark lightning exploded everywhere.
The air itself screamed under the pressure.
Their fists still didn’t touch directly—
A layer of overwhelming Haki remained between them.
Yet the shockwave alone blasted apart the ground beneath their feet.
CRACK!!
Massive fissures spread across Whisky Peak.
Nearby mountains trembled.
The sea surrounding the island exploded upward repeatedly.
Meanwhile—
The Marines farther away could only stare in horror.
BOOM!
BOOM!!
BOOOOM!!!
Every collision sounded like a natural disaster.
One younger Marine swallowed hard before looking toward Bogard.
“Vice Admiral Bogard…”
“Why didn’t you interfere earlier and stop Bullet?”
Hearing that—
Bogard kept observing the battlefield calmly before replying, “It’s not that I didn’t want to.”
“It’s because Ramon is exactly like Vice Admiral Garp.”
“He hates people interfering in his battles.”
Bogard then adjusted his glasses slightly and continued, “If I jumped between them…”
“The first person to hit me would probably be Ramon himself.”
The Marine immediately became speechless.
Cold sweat dripped down his face.
Meanwhile—
Bogard calmly looked toward the battlefield again and said, “For now…”
The Marines nodded silently.
None of them dared move closer.
Because the pressure alone was enough to suffocate them.
Meanwhile—
On the island—
BOOOOM!!!
Another terrifying collision erupted.
Conqueror’s Haki surged wildly across the skies.
Dark purple and dark blue lightning split the heavens repeatedly.
Then suddenly—
Both Ramon and Bullet pushed against each other simultaneously.
BOOOOOOM!!!
A massive shockwave erupted outward.
Both monsters were blasted several meters backward.
Bullet slid across the ground destroying rocks beneath his feet.
Meanwhile—
Ramon was thrown backward before flipping once and landing heavily on the cracked earth.
Dust rose around both of them.
For a brief moment—
Silence appeared.
Then—
Ramon slowly lifted his head.
Bullet also looked toward Ramon.
Both stared at each other silently for a second.
Then suddenly—
Both of them started laughing loudly at the exact same time.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!”
“KUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!”
The sheer excitement in their voices caused even the Marines nearby to tense up.
Meanwhile—
Bullet grinned fiercely before yelling,
“Is that all you’ve got, kid?!”
Ramon smirked wildly in return.
“I haven’t even started yet.”
Then—
He grabbed his Marine coat.
And threw it away from his shoulders.
The coat flew through the air before landing far away on the destroyed ground.
Dark purple lightning crackled violently around Ramon’s body.
Meanwhile—
Bullet narrowed his eyes excitedly.
The muscles in his body tensed slightly.
Then—
Both monsters looked directly into each other’s eyes.
And at the exact same time—
Both spoke.
“LET’S DO THIS!!”
BOOOOOOM!!!
The ground beneath them exploded instantly as both Ramon and Bullet launched toward each other once again like unstoppable monsters.
BOOOOOOM!!!
A gigantic shockwave erupted across the island.
Ramon thrust his fist forward at the exact same moment as Douglas Bullet.
Neither dodged.
Neither blocked.
Both simply attacked head-on.
The next second—
BAM!!!
Both fists landed directly on each other’s faces simultaneously.
A terrifying burst of Haki exploded outward from the collision point.
Dark purple and blue lightning spread wildly through the sky.
The surrounding air cracked violently.
Then—
BOOOOOOM!!!
Both monsters were blasted away from each other like cannonballs.
Ramon crashed into a distant mountain.
Bullet smashed into another hill on the opposite side of the island.
BOOOOM!!!
Both hills collapsed instantly on top of them.
Massive amounts of rubble and dust rose into the sky.
For a few brief moments—
Silence remained.
The Marines far away stared nervously toward the destroyed island.
Then suddenly—
BOOOOOM!!!
The mountains exploded apart.
Rocks flew everywhere.
Both Ramon and Bullet burst out from the rubble simultaneously.
Without even pausing—
Both instantly used Moonwalk.
BOOM!
BOOM!!
The air exploded beneath their feet as they launched toward each other again.
Then—
BOOOOOOM!!!
Another collision erupted.
Fist met fist.
Fist met face.
Elbow slammed into stomach.
Knee collided against ribs.
Both monsters attacked each other relentlessly at monstrous speed.
BOOM!!
BOOM!!
BOOOOM!!!
Shockwaves exploded nonstop across the battlefield.
Their fists moved so fast that even many Marines could barely follow them.
Dark lightning flooded the island endlessly.
Meanwhile—
Several miles away on the Marine ship—
The younger Marines were already panicking.
One Marine trainee looked pale as he grabbed the railing tightly.
“T-This is insane…”
“They’re destroying the entire island…”
Another Marine swallowed hard.
“How are humans even capable of this…?”
Meanwhile—
Bogard remained calm while observing the battlefield.
Then he spoke quietly,
“All of you stand down.”
“This battle isn’t ending anytime soon.”
One Marine trainee immediately looked toward Bogard nervously.
“What do you mean by that, Vice Admiral Bogard?”
Bogard kept his eyes fixed on the island where explosions continued erupting nonstop.
Then he replied calmly,
“This battle…”
“Will continue for days.”
“Maybe even longer.”
The Marines immediately became speechless.
Meanwhile—
Back on the island—
BOOOOM!!!
Ramon and Bullet collided again.
And again.
And again.
Neither monster slowed down.
Blood covered both of their bodies.
Yet both were grinning wildly.
Enjoying every second of the battle.
The island itself had already begun collapsing under their strength.
Buildings shattered into dust.
Mountains crumbled completely.
Forests vanished beneath the shockwaves.
Even the coastline was breaking apart.
Finally—
After another massive collision—
BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
A gigantic shockwave erupted outward from the center of the island.
Everything around them—
Buildings.
Hills.
Trees.
Rocks.
Everything—
Completely crumbled into rubble and dust.
