Boom!!
After being enhanced by Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, the already oppressive giant Guanyin statue became even more terrifying and violent. It erupted with waves of suffocating pressure that swept out in all directions, invisibly causing God Valley to start vibrating.
"..."
Seeing this scene, Garp, who had originally entered a combat state, fell into a daze.
Not only Garp, but even Rocks D. Xebec, Golden Lion Shiki, Edward Newgate, Silver Axe, Captain John, Wang Zhi, Gol D. Roger, Silvers Rayleigh, Scopper Gaban, Commander-in-Chief Kong, Sengoku, and Zephyr all revealed expressions of utter astonishment.
Clearly, they had not expected that Ryker could actually wrap Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki around the giant Guanyin statue before their eyes.
As top powerhouses of the sea, they all knew about Armament Haki hardening, emission, and internal destruction. They also knew that only a very few top powerhouses could achieve Conqueror's Haki infusion.
But... this was the first time they had seen someone use it on such a large scale.
One must know, this giant Guanyin statue was hundreds of meters high. Moreover, possessing a thousand giant arms and controlling both Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki simultaneously to cover such a wide area... just thinking about it made one's scalp numb. It was simply impossible.
"He's truly a monster; we must strangle him."
A few seconds later, Rocks D. Xebec suppressed the frustration and discomfort in his heart and said with exasperation, "In just one short year, Ryker has grown to this extent. If we let him develop further, all my forces will have to kneel and submit, never to see the light of day again."
Damn it.
A year ago, Rocks D. Xebec began to dominate the New World.
But unexpectedly, he met the God of Ninja of Wano Country, Ryker. After a great battle, he lost. Thus, his great ambition to become the King of the World was crushed, and he lived in Ryker's shadow.
He thought he could besiege and kill Ryker at God Valley.
But unexpectedly, Ryker's trump cards were more terrifying than imagined.
"Ryker is too strong; he must be sanctioned..."
Gol D. Roger, who shared the same fate as Rocks, revealed a heavy expression and said with empathy, "Such an uncertain factor must be strangled with all our might. Otherwise, even the World Government might have to kneel in submission."
"Everyone, attack with full force!"
Hearing these words, Kong didn't bother to refute Roger. He said in a deep voice, "Only by strangling Ryker will it be in the interest of all our parties."
"Good!!"
"We must share a bitter hatred of the enemy."
"Only by strangling Ryker can the Marines and Pirates have a chance to breathe, and the sea can restore its order."
"..."
With Rocks, Roger, and Kong leading the way, Golden Lion Shiki, Edward Newgate, Silver Axe, Captain John, Wang Zhi, Silvers Rayleigh, Scopper Gaban, Sengoku, and Zephyr, who had entered combat states, all nodded indifferently. They completely put aside the gaps and conflicts between them and entered a state of common hatred against the enemy.
Everyone knew clearly that the stronger the Ancestor, Ryker, appeared, the more he deserved to die. Cooperating to strangle Ryker was in everyone's common interest.
As for the impact of news spreading about Pirates and Marines cooperating?
Are you kidding?
What happened on God Valley would not spread.
As long as Ryker died, everything that happened on God Valley would be erased by the joint efforts of the major forces.
Even everything about Ryker would be erased. After a few years, the God of Ninja and the Ancestor of the Sea would vanish into smoke, and no one would remember him.
In an oppressive atmosphere.
"Attack!!"
Garp was the first to fly out, swinging his fist and blasting towards the True Several Thousand Hands.
Crack...
The fist had just been swung when the air exploded, revealing wisps of visible cracks. A violent fist wind permeated out, as if to blow up everything.
"Explode this giant Guanyin statue for me."
Seeing Garp make his move, the golden giant Buddha that Sengoku had transformed into was not to be outdone. He directly punched forward. The powerful force caused the air to erupt with a ball of fluorescence, turning into a ring of light that exploded. A terrifying shockwave bombarded the True Several Thousand Hands with lightning speed.
Swish! Swish!!
Two sounds of breaking air rang out.
Zephyr and Kong also flew towards the giant Guanyin statue with lightning speed.
For a moment, the four top Marine combatants fired on all cylinders, erupting with extremely terrifying energy fluctuations.
"Do it!!"
Seeing the Marines attack without reservation, Rocks D. Xebec did not hesitate. Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki wrapped around his entire body, turning it pitch black, and he charged fiercely at the giant Guanyin statue.
"Murakumogiri · Air Quake!!"
"Lion: Thousand Cut Valley!!"
Edward Newgate and Golden Lion Shiki instantly activated the powers of their respective Devil Fruits and launched attacks at the giant Guanyin statue. Among them, Edward Newgate struck out a white tremor force; wherever it passed, the air cracked open.
As for Golden Lion Shiki, using the power of the Float-Float Fruit to float in the air, he struck out hundreds of golden sword slashes.
Silver Axe, Captain John, and Wang Zhi were not to be outdone. After glancing at each other, they each launched the strongest attacks they could muster.
"Hahaha, I'll make my move too." Gol D. Roger laughed loudly, swung his sword wrapped in Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, and shouted in a deep voice, "Divine Departure!!"
"Alright..."
Seeing this, Silvers Rayleigh and Scopper Gaban flew towards the giant Guanyin statue.
Instantly, thirteen top combatants of the sea launched attacks, erupting with thirteen violent auras, causing the surrounding sea area to vibrate slightly, seeming ready to explode everything and crush everything.
"Phew!!"
Facing the attacks of Garp, Rocks, Roger, and the others, Ryker, standing on the head of the True Several Thousand Hands, didn't say much. He just gently clenched his fist.
Following his movement, all the thousands of giant arms of the True Several Thousand Hands clenched their fists. Immediately after, like a violent storm, they bombarded straight ahead.
"Summit... Enlightenment!!"
