CRACKLE! BOOM!

Two bolts of tyrannical, ferocious, crimson-black lightning pierced the bodies of the two Marine Admirals, Kizaru and Ryokugyu.

These two were powerful Logia users, absolute top-tier powerhouses on the sea.

Yet now, before this savage lightning, they found themselves unable to even transform into their elements, their hands raised in a comical and pathetic gesture of surrender.

"Is this... Sky Sovereign’s Haki?" Ryokugyu stammered, drenched in cold sweat, his face a mask of utter horror.

HOW COULD IT BE THIS STRONG??

Only by experiencing it firsthand could one truly understand what this level of Haki represented...

It represented a Haki that absolutely transcended anyone else in this era, a Haki that shattered the known limits of combat power on these seas!

A mere long-range Haki attack had prevented him from elementizing.

What a frightening Haki!

Although Ryokugyu, due to his personal ideology, despised the man who wielded this power, he had to admit: if he were alone against this man, forget fighting, even escaping would likely be an impossible task.

"Hey, don’t tell me... Sky Sovereign is nearby?" Ryokugyu asked nervously, looking towards Kizaru.

Even with another Marine Admiral by his side—Kizaru, whose seniority, strength, and Devil Fruit tier were all above his—Ryokugyu felt not a shred of security.

As a new Admiral promoted through the World Military Draft, Ryokugyu had been granted access to the Navy’s most classified intelligence. He knew what had happened after the live broadcast from the Summit War was cut.

Sky Sovereign Rowen had suppressed the combined might of former Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Fleet Admiral Akainu.

Only after Hero Garp joined the fray did Rowen feel threatened and end the war.

Of course, this was the official version for public consumption.

For new Marine Admirals like Ryokugyu and Fujitora, it was necessary for them to know the true extent of Rowen’s combat strength.

That man, even against the combined might of Garp, Akainu, and Sengoku, showed no fear!

He only ended the war because he didn’t want to expend too much stamina and Haki so close to Mariejois.

After all, that man had no qualms about killing Admirals—if Ryokugyu and Fujitora didn’t know the true level of Rowen’s combat strength, they might be killed by him, which would be a catastrophic blow to both the Navy’s justice and its combat power.

So right now, Ryokugyu was scared. Very scared.

If even Sengoku and Akainu working together couldn’t beat Sky Sovereign, then he and Kizaru certainly couldn’t either.

"Mah, calm down. It’s not Sky Sovereign himself,"

Kizaru’s reaction was much better. Though he had also habitually raised his hands in surrender, he had already identified the source of the Haki.

"How scary~ To be able to release such powerful Haki through a Transponder Snail... As expected of the World’s Most Dominant Haki User," Kizaru commented with immense awe, looking at a Transponder Snail in Jinbe’s hand.

"WHAT! Sky Sovereign isn’t here in person?"

Ryokugyu’s gloom vanished, his expression turning arrogant again.

This Haki was strong, yes, even capable of disrupting his elementalization, momentarily immobilizing him.

But since it was a remote release, if he disregarded the consumption of stamina and Haki, he could forcibly counter the Haki energy affecting his body and move freely!

"Hmph! If Sky Sovereign were here, you two would be staying here for good," Jinbe snorted coldly, holding the Transponder Snail. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"What’s the point of talking nonsense! He’s not here, after all!" Ryokugyu’s eyes turned fierce.

He prepared to use his Devil Fruit and Haki to force his way through the paralysis. Even the World’s Most Dominant Haki User couldn’t kill two Admirals with a simple remote Haki attack.

"Don’t move, Ryokugyu," Zoro warned, also producing a Transponder Snail.

Then, Oven also took out a Transponder Snail from his coat.

"Hey, hey... can these things be mass-produced?" Ryokugyu’s expression froze.

These two Transponder Snails weren’t a bluff.

His Observation Haki wasn’t sealed; he could feel the terrifying Haki contained within the snails held by Pirate Hunter and Charlotte Oven.

If they released them, three bursts of Sky Sovereign’s Haki would descend at once. It would be incredibly difficult for him to break free in a short amount of time.

And his opponents weren’t just the offensively weak Charlotte Oven and Charlotte Galette.

There was also Pirate Hunter, whose offensive power, under the influence of his Asura Aura—had already reached the Admiral level.

Under the influence of three Haki blasts, it was highly likely he would be severely wounded by Zoro.

He was a Forest-Forest Fruit user, not a Glint-Glint Fruit user with Kizaru’s absurd speed and escape ability. It was clear that Pirate Hunter and his group had already made him their primary target.

Ryokugyu, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, saw that the potential consequences now far outweighed the benefits of continuing the mission.

"So scary... To be able to mass-produce such Transponder Snails," Kizaru’s expression also turned grim.

Though different from Ryokugyu, as a user of the Glint-Glint Fruit, even if they fought head-on, even with three Haki-releasing snails, he was confident he could retreat safely.

But who knew if this was the full extent of Sky Sovereign’s trump cards?

That man’s methods were godlike and mysterious.

It was better not to continue the fight without knowing all the variables. Besides, this was Big Mom’s territory—they didn’t have the home-field advantage. If the battle dragged on too long, uncontrollable accidents could occur.

If one, or even two, Emperors appeared—that would be truly disastrous.

"Let’s leave it at this for today," Kizaru sighed. He never expected that deploying two Admirals would yield no decent results.

Jinbe and the others didn’t press the issue, letting Kizaru and Ryokugyu retreat.

WHOOSH!

After Kizaru and Ryokugyu had completely departed, an Air Door opened.

"Ryokugyu? His power is decent, but his personality is truly awful," Rowen commented, a crimson-black light flashing in his eyes.

"He’s nothing but a coward who preys on the weak. To think a guy like that could become an Admiral..." Jinbe despised people like Ryokugyu most.

He sensed none of the ’Disposition’ a true powerhouse should possess. He just had a powerful Devil Fruit and nothing else.

Jinbe felt contempt for him from the bottom of his heart.

"But he is an Admiral. A fighting force that will have a major impact on the war, This war isn’t just about taking down Kaido and Big Mom. It’s about weakening the Navy’s combat strength as much as possible."

Rowen’s eyes flashed with an astonishing crimson-black light.

The final battle was very close.

The Navy was a key part of the World Government’s power, and their six Admiral-level combatants were a serious problem.

If he only took out Kaido and Big Mom, all this effort would be wasted. Rowen had to use this war to eliminate as many of the Navy’s top fighters as possible, paving the way for the final confrontation.
