Akainu and Kizaru momentarily paused their attack. Several specialized seastone bullets were seen streaking towards Ignis Glow. Akainu instinctively glanced towards the warships, shouting: "What in the blazes are you doing?!"
"Hmph!"
Aboard the warship, the antler-masked man, in response to Akainu's furious question, said dismissively: "Naturally, we're assisting you, Navy. Just watch!"
"That island is on the verge of collapse! You Navy haven't managed to subdue that old man yet! With our help, we'll eliminate him far more quickly!"
The antler-masked man spoke with arrogant confidence.
In truth, the battle on the island was already affecting the fleet. Initially, the sea near the island was merely steaming from the intense heat. However, now, the terrifying heat was causing some of the Navy's warships to melt.
Even if they didn't want to admit it, it was undeniable: The sea was evaporating!
Remaining here any longer would jeopardize their safety.
Therefore, to expedite the battle's conclusion, he ordered the CP0 to seize the opportunity presented by the clash between Ignis Glow, Akainu, and Kizaru.
He firmly believed that if a single seastone bullet could pierce Ignis Glow's body, the battle would be over.
There would be no need for Akainu and Kizaru to waste any more of the important figures' precious time in the Sacred Land!
The sooner the World Nobles heard good news, the better.
To the tall, antler-masked man, nothing was more important!
"You… you fool!"
Akainu muttered through gritted teeth.
While he didn't object to using any means necessary to achieve his objective, the CP0's intervention at this critical juncture was nothing short of counterproductive!
He had no time to spare on protecting the lives of those who were utterly useless in this fight!
Just as he was about to resume his attack on Ignis Glow, Akainu's gaze shifted back to Ignis Glow, and the sight before him caused his expression to change drastically.
The searing flames effortlessly deflected the seastone bullets.
Behind the dissipating flames, Ignis Glow's right hand gripped Ryūjin Jakka, its blade ablaze with the heat of the sun's surface, his stance radiating power.
"Now, it's my turn."
Ignis Glow noticed the island was on the verge of collapse.
A sharp glint flashed in his impassive eyes.
His powerful muscles tensed, and the scars from past battles became clearly visible as his body temperature rapidly increased.
His arm strained, veins bulging!
The next moment, Ryūjin Jakka cleaved the air with a single, devastating strike!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The melting island ground trembled violently, unable to withstand the unimaginable pressure, shattering into countless pieces in a terrifying display of power!!!
Simultaneously, the sea boiled and evaporated! White steam billowed wildly!
These were pillars of fire, each radiating unparalleled heat, erupting continuously around the shattered island!!!
Rumble...! Rumble...!
The shattered island trembled violently, emitting a mournful groan as if it were being consumed by an unstoppable inferno!
The intense heat, accompanied by countless sparks, spread across the land.
It was clearly visible: a terrifying heat wave was causing the surrounding sea to boil and evaporate, revealing the soil beneath, long since devoid of moisture and now melting under the intense heat…!!
"Th-the island… it's completely shattered!!!"
"This… this has to be a lie?!"
"H-how… how hot is it?!"
On the warships, some of the shocked Navy personnel involuntarily cried out.
Some instinctively touched the edge of the warship, only to quickly recoil their hands at the scorching heat.
Sweat poured from their foreheads, limbs, and backs, the intense heat causing them to perspire profusely.
Some instinctively wiped their brows, only to discover in horror that the sweat evaporated before it could even reach the deck!
The Navy's faces turned ashen.
They looked up at the shattered island, at the pillars of flame that seemed to ignite the very sky, feeling the terrifying heat radiating outwards.
Fear etched itself onto their faces.
Even across the expanse of the sea, the heat wave emanating from the island was already having a devastating effect on this area!
If this continued, Death.
A chilling thought of inevitable death filled their minds.
On the flagship, the CP0 members, armed with the world's rarest seastone weapons, stared, their eyes wide with disbelief, at the sudden, catastrophic changes on the island.
"Mo-monster!"
Looking at the aged yet powerfully built man on the shattered island, wielding Ryūjin Jakka, his body radiating an aura of terrifying power, even the CP0 members couldn't help but swallow hard.
Then, before they could react, a wave of intense heat washed over their weapons, causing them to drop to the ground.
The CP0 members instinctively reached for their weapons…
