The true purpose behind promising those private monsters the 'Navy Admiral' positions, was the same as with the Seraphim' from the start.
If they could defeat Ignis Glow, that would be ideal.
The World Government's Navy, as their loyal dogs, would be able to replenish their ranks with a new Admiral-level fighter to replace the one Ignis Glow had killed.
If they couldn't defeat him, then they would at least exhaust Ignis Glow's stamina and force him to reveal his true strength!
Then, he would personally intervene, to bring this "Extermination Operation" to a close!
It had to be said, that Ignis Glow, watching Kong unleash the power befitting the Commander-in-Chief of the World Government Forces, realized that the man had planned everything out perfectly.
However, facing Kong, now in his "steel bone" state, Ignis Glow had discovered his weakness from the very first exchange.
That was that, while the full-body Busoshoku Haki was incredibly powerful, capable of enhancing Kong's physical strength and combat skills many times over, maintaining that full-body Haki coverage at all times consumed a tremendous amount of energy from the user.
Moreover, each attack would drastically increase the rate of Haki consumption!
It could be said that, if Ignis Glow simply ignored Kong, and Kong were forced to deactivate his current state, victory in this battle would naturally belong to Ignis Glow!
However, despite knowing this, Ignis Glow had no intention of exploiting it.
After all, if he had to resort to such tactics just to defeat a "watchdog" sent by the World Government, then he shouldn't even dream of overthrowing this world and avenging himself against the World Government standing behind Kong!
"Since you like to stay in the shadows so much, then watch closely, Kaido, you will also be buried here, this is the last sight you will ever see."
Ignis Glow, facing Kong as he tore through the air and attacked once more, suddenly spoke those words for no apparent reason.
Then, before Kong had time to react, the seemingly endless spiritual pressure that had been tearing through the sky and pouring out in all directions!
From that moment onwards, the spiritual pressure surrounding Ignis Glow!
Rumbling…!
Abruptly began to transform, erupting outwards in a torrent of bright orange-red flames!
It was like a sea of fire spreading across the ocean, occupying the entire sky, a spectacle of terrifying grandeur!
At the same time, the sea beneath Ignis Glow's feet began to tremble uncontrollably.
Massive amounts of white steam rose into the air, and the temperature soared!
Simultaneously, in the sea area centered around Ignis Glow, the horizon line was visibly decreasing at an alarming rate!!!
Rumbling…!
And this change, affected not only the sea area where Ignis Glow was located!
The nearby Sabaody Archipelago, the Grand Line, and even the Summit War!
Everyone suddenly felt an intensely searing heat descend upon them!!!.
"Wh-what's happening?!"
"Even at midday, the temperature on Sabaody Archipelago has never reached this level!"
"It's so hot, I can clearly feel the water in my body evaporating rapidly."
"At this rate, we might die!"
The first place to feel the unusual heat on the Grand Line was naturally the nearby Sabaody Archipelago.
Many people instinctively drank large gulps of water.
But the feeling of extreme thirst showed no signs of abating.
And this wasn't an isolated incident.
Almost everyone on Sabaody Archipelago was experiencing the same thing.
"Rayleigh, what's going on?!"
On the grassy area not far from the Rip-off Bar,
Shakky sensed that the temperature in the air was subtly wrong, and she turned to look at Rayleigh.
Rayleigh was staring intently towards the sea outside Sabaody Archipelago.
Shakky frowned.
"Is something happening over there?"
Shakky instinctively looked in the direction Rayleigh was staring.
The next moment, Shakky froze in place, her pupils slowly constricting, a trace of uncontrollable shock flickering in her eyes.
She saw that, sometime in the recent past, the sea surrounding Sabaody Archipelago was emitting white steam!
The sea seemed to be boiling, like water about to be brought to a boil!
Shakky abruptly lifted her head to look at the sun in the sky.
Then, she looked back at the sea area in the direction of Rayleigh's gaze, where the high temperatures were constantly radiating outwards.
Shakky's heart trembled.
What was happening over there?
Could it be that the "sun" had descended upon the Grand Line?!
On the other side, Rumbling!... Rumbling!
The temperature was rapidly increasing, perhaps truly like the sun descending upon the battlefield on the Grand Line!
Whoosh~! Whoosh~!
Massive amounts of seawater were frantically evaporating, disappearing into the air.
The soaring, scorching flames occupied the entire sea, a spectacle that was as grand as it was terrifying, as if devouring the sky!
And in the center of the sea of fire, only one figure stood there!
Releasing a terrifying aura that chilled the very soul!
"Steel Bone Impact Fist!"
At that moment, a loud roar suddenly echoed!
It was Kong, realizing that something was wrong, his expression changing, clenching his fist.
Nearly tangible Busoshoku Haki gathered on his fist, and he unleashed it with all his might!
The air shattered in an instant!
A massive sound wave and a visible shockwave appeared!
The trembling space rippled!
It was easy to imagine the terror of Kong's attack.
However,
