Chapter 384: Dual Broadcast!
After Brook and Koby were swallowed by the vortex, the beach instantly returned to silence.
Roy stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the surging tides in the distance. His eyes were as deep as the sea as he murmured to himself, "They... should be arriving soon."
As his words fell, his silhouette gradually dissipated, leaving behind a shoreline littered with wailing pirates collapsed on the scorching sand.
Wano Country · Amigasa Village
The flames of war had completely torn apart the tranquility.
The village entrance plaza had been reduced to a purgatory of blood and fire!
Zoro, wielding Enma, clashed head-on with King!
The pitch-black blade and the flaming giant sword intertwined fiercely. Slashes and hellfire tore the firmament asunder, their deafening impacts cracking the earth!
"CLANG—!!!"
The eerie purple glow of the demon blade clashed hard against the raging flames, the resulting shockwave overturning countless ruined walls!
On the other side, Ace brandished his flames, shielding Otama and the terrified villagers.
The blazing fire formed a wall, incinerating incoming spider webs and poisoned blades.
"Long time no see, Ace!"
Accompanied by the roar of a dragon, Who's-Who's figure instantly collapsed, his blood staining the ground.
The one stepping out from the shadows was none other than one of the Tobi Roppo—X Drake!
His dragon claws dripped with blood, his posture steadfast as he turned to stand behind Ace.
Ace paused for a moment before flashing a wide grin. "Drake... hiding all this time, you've really had it rough!"
Ace and Drake stood back-to-back. Flames and dragon claws wove together into an impenetrable defense, dead-locking the frantic assaults of the Tobi Roppo and the Beast Pirates!
"DRAKE!!! YOU TRAITOR!!!"
Black Maria's eyes were bloodshot, her spider webs dancing madly like venomous snakes as she lunged forward!
"Hmph! Once Boss Kaido returns... you'll all die!!!"
Sasaki shifted into his Triceratops form, charging forward ruthlessly. His wild roar cracked the ground!
The siblings, Ulti and Page One, transformed into their beast forms simultaneously, the power of their Ancient Zoan fruits sweeping across the battlefield!
With a single stomp, the Pachycephalosaurus and Spinosaurus tore up the earth, sending dust flying!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The four Tobi Roppo struck together, their offensive like a raging tide!
Ace's furious flames churned, his arms transforming into a gargantuan wall of blazing fire, desperately protecting Otama and the villagers behind him!
He looked back, flashing a resolute smile. "Don't worry! I will absolutely get you out of here!!!"
Otama's eyes brimmed with tears as she nodded frantically. "Yeah!!!"
On the other end of the battlefield, Kuina's sharp blade-light clashed head-on with Queen!
"CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!"
Queen's mechanical arm and Kuina's sword glint collided fiercely. Sparks rained down, the impacts distorting the air itself!
"Dammit!! A few measly Marines dare to come in here and run wild?! Get them, all of you!!!"
Queen roared, his bloated body shattering the stone bricks beneath him as he frantically commanded thousands of pirates to swarm forward like a tidal wave!
The pirate tide roared closer, threatening to drown Ace, Zoro, Kuina, and Drake in the fires of war!
Just as the Beast Pirates swarmed forward like a plague of locusts—
At that very moment—
"RUMBLE—!!!"
A deafening thunderclap suddenly exploded in broad daylight!
Countless golden lightning spears tore through the firmament, descending like divine punishment!
"WAAAAAGH—!!!"
Screams echoed endlessly as swaths of Beast Pirate foot soldiers were instantly charred black, collapsing to the ground!
Queen's pupils shrank, his face pale with horror. "Lightning?! Could it be—!!!"
High above, dark clouds churned, woven with flashes of lightning.
A silhouette floated lazily amidst the thunderclouds, a golden staff resting across his shoulders, his eyes full of disdain.
"You small fry... are too damn loud."
It was none other than Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral—"Thunder God" Enel!
Immediately after, the thunderclouds were forced open by a massive boulder. A floating platform of solid rock slowly descended!
A purple cloak snapped in the wind. A figure stood atop the rock, wielding a cane sword, his voice deep and resonant:
"Gravity Blade!"
"VROOM—!!!"
A terrifying gravitational force abruptly crushed downward. Hundreds of pirates shrieked as they were forced to their knees, some even dragged straight into the earth, blood spraying wildly!
That figure was Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral—Issho (Fujitora)!
Behind the rocky platform, the Marine flag fluttered fiercely. Thousands of Marine elites marched out in tight formation, their armor like a forest of steel, their killing intent piercing the heavens!
A tidal wave of battle cries shattered heaven and earth!
Queen completely panicked. His face deathly pale, he roared, "King!! We can't hold them!! The main Marine force is actually here!!!"
World Economy News Paper Headquarters · Morgans' Office
The sudden intelligence made the entire building shake!
Morgans slammed his desk to splinters, feathers flying everywhere. His eyes were bloodshot, his voice hoarse but laced with madness:
"A massive battle in Wano?! The Marines are launching a frontal assault on Onigashima?!!"
"Hurry! Mobilize all nearby News Coos!!! I want live footage!!! NOW!!!"
Like a crazed beast, he ran laps around his office, wings flapping wildly, his eyes burning with a journalist's hyper-excited frenzy:
"The execution broadcast just started... and a battlefield on the other side of the world has already erupted?!!"
"Are the Marines trying to end the Great Pirate Era all at once?! HAHAHAHA—The news of the century!!!"
Wano Coastal Waters · High Altitude
Several white News Coos equipped with Visual Den Den Mushi desperately flew through the thunderclouds and flames.
The footage shook violently, transmitting back scenes of utter, awe-inspiring devastation:
—Enel hovering amidst the thunderclouds, his lightning spears crashing down like a storm of divine punishment! The Beast Pirate grunts were reduced to charred corpses in droves amidst the flashes of lightning!
—Fujitora standing with his cane sword, his purple cloak whipping in the wind. With a single slash, a gravitational field collapsed downward! Queen's mechanical arm fractured inch by inch under the immense pressure, blood spewing from his mouth as he screamed in agony!
—Zoro, his eyes bloodshot, wielding all three swords. Enma pulsed with an eerie light, clashing against King's flaming giant blade and tearing the firmament! The shockwaves pulverized rocks as a sea of fire swept through!
—Ace forming a wall of fire, as scorching as the sun itself, blocking a hail of arrows and artillery! Beside him, Drake's dragon claws tore through the air, ripping ruthlessly into Page One's spined back! Fire and blood wove together into a hellish painting!
—In the distance, Jack's gargantuan corpse lay sprawled across the battlefield, serving as a silent monument declaring his demise!
Seeing this, Morgans' eyes looked ready to pop out of his skull. He screamed at the top of his lungs, "Inject it into the broadcast!! RIGHT NOW!!! Show all of this to the entire world!!!"
Public Squares Worldwide · In Front of the Screens
The citizens watching the execution ceremony at Marineford suddenly noticed the screens splitting. The originally solemn and grim execution broadcast was abruptly sliced in half!
—On the left, on the execution scaffold at Marineford, Rayleigh was bound by chains, while Sengoku and the Three Admirals exuded an imposing, mountain-like presence!
—On the right, lightning and fire intertwined on the Wano battlefield. Amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, Marine elites and the Beast Pirates fought a desperate, bloody war!
"Wh-What is that?!!"
"The Marines are at war with pirates?!!"
"It's the Beast Pirates!!! I see 'Wildfire' King!!!"
"My god... Are the Marines trying to execute the Dark King Rayleigh AND wipe out Kaido at the exact same time?!!"
Panic, shock, fanaticism—citizens all over the world exploded as if struck by lightning. The streets and plazas instantly boiled over!
Wano Country · High Altitude Clouds
Black clouds churned, thunder roared, and a gargantuan shadow burst forth from the horizon!
An Azure Dragon took to the skies, its roar shattering the firmament!
Kaido's dragon head emerged from the dark clouds, his eyes burning with a heaven-scorching fury!
"—ROY!!! GET THE HELL OUT HERE!!!"
His dragon's roar acted like a doomsday horn, the entire sky shaking and cracking under its force!
At the same time, on the distant horizon, the Totto Land fleet approached like a tidal wave!
Big Mom stood upon her flagship, letting out a furious roar: "Kaido! Don't be reckless!! This is obviously a Marine trap!!!"
However, her roars were completely drowned out by Kaido's heaven-shaking bellows and dragon cries!
