Perhaps it was the Five Elders, or perhaps it was them.
But the four of them were fearless. In their view, as long as they could eliminate El, the monster, even if they died in the process, it would be worth it!
...
"Step! Step! Step!"
At this moment, footsteps came from behind everyone.
It was seen that Kong, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru were rushing quickly toward the battlefield.
But once they arrived at the scene, they were all a bit stunned.
The entire Holy Land Mary Geoise had been almost completely destroyed by El and the Five Elders' battle.
Looking around, there was not a single intact ground.
No complete buildings—only ruins and broken stones everywhere.
Garp, hearing the footsteps behind him, turned around and noticed the four, filled with confusion, and asked, "Y-You... why are you here???"
"Word has it that El and Edward invaded the Holy Land Mary Geoise, so I rushed over to support," Kong explained.
Because the Navy Headquarters was very close to the Red Soil Continent, Kong and the others—Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru—arrived at the Holy Land Mary Geoise at the fastest speed!
Sengoku also glanced back at them, surprised, and asked, "Sakazuki, Borsalino, Kuzan, why are you all here too?"
Kong's arrival was understandable, after all, he was the Fleet Admiral of the Navy.
He possessed terrifying combat power that was not inferior to theirs.
His appearance could bring them help.
But the problem was, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru—just a Navy Captain now.
Their combat power was extremely weak, and their presence here could hardly bring any help at all!
Kizaru looked at Sengoku, spread his hands, and explained, "After all, staying at the Navy Headquarters was a bit boring, so I wanted to see the great pirates of the New World, so I came to watch."
...
"But still, I wonder if we're already too late. So much time has passed, and those two great pirates of the New World have probably been dealt with by you guys," Akainu said.
The Holy Land Mary Geoise was home to the Five Elders, plus Garp and others were present.
And they arrived after a long delay, looking at the destroyed ground around.
Akainu's first thought was that El and Whitebeard had already been dealt with!
"Are they already defeated? What a pity—I thought I might see the great pirates of the New World," Aokiji said, scratching his head.
Since El's battlefield with the Five Elders was located in the center of the Holy Land Mary Geoise, and Garp and the others were hundreds of meters away watching from a distance.
Therefore, after arriving at the battlefield, Kong and the others only saw the debris everywhere and hadn't yet noticed El and the Five Elders hundreds of meters away.
Garp looked at the four, his face very heavy, and shook his head slightly, saying, "No, not yet!"
"Oh? So much time has passed, and they're still not defeated?"
After hearing this, Kong was slightly stunned.
He then turned his gaze toward the center of the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
And just one look made him break out in a cold sweat.
Because he saw a man emitting an extreme aura of a monster, standing in midair at hundreds of meters away.
He furrowed his brow, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked Garp, "Who is that man standing in midair...?"
Not to mention the distance was too far for him to see clearly El's appearance in midair, and El himself was now glowing with purple energy, with five scales on his back and four sharp cones on his shoulders.
No one, at first glance, could recognize who the man in midair was!
Garp's tone was extremely heavy as he said, "El!!!"
"El... El???"
Hearing this answer, Kong was stunned immediately.
Then he looked again at El, who was floating in midair.
Kong had fought El during the God's Valley battle.
Back then, El was extremely powerful, but he wasn't much stronger than Garp.
But now, in El's current state, even before fighting him, his heart had already formed the illusion that El was invincible!
How long had it been since the God's Valley battle ended?
And El's strength had already reached such an astonishing level???
When the three, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru, heard that the man in midair was El, they all fixed their eyes on El.
"Is this the pirate called El, the strongest in the New World?" Akainu thought in shock.
Akainu originally had a strong desire to go to the New World to hunt pirates, but... seeing El, his resolve shattered instantly.
Because the El standing in midair didn't give him the feeling of a terrifying pirate.
Instead, he felt like an invincible, god-like being with the power to dominate the entire world!
"Are all the pirates of the New World just a bunch of monsters?" Aokiji's voice trembled.
He had once dreamed of going to the New World to hunt some big pirates.
But after seeing El at first glance, he gave up on the idea of going to the New World altogether.
Because he felt his soul trembling!!!
Don't even talk about hunting a man like El—he didn't even dare to stand in front of him and face him as an opponent.
They were all too young. Right now... they were only Navy Captains.
"If I'm not mistaken, the person fighting El right now should be one of the Five Elders! And... it's four of them working together!" Kong stared at the battlefield with a shocked expression.
Although he had never fought the Five Elders himself, as Fleet Admiral, he knew very well the strength of the Five Elders.
A single Five Elder's strength was comparable to a man like Rocks.
And the combined strength of all four Five Elders was even more formidable!
Now, El was fighting four Five Elders simultaneously and not falling behind!!!
Kong once doubted whether his eyes were playing tricks on him.
Otherwise... it had only been a short while.
How could El's strength be so terrifying?!?
"Yes," Garp nodded.
"What? El's opponent is the four Five Elders?" Kizaru was slightly stunned.
"The Five Elders are the highest leaders of the World Government, right? Is El worth having such influential figures personally team up against him?" Aokiji looked serious, pondering.
They were only Navy Captains now.
They had never seen the Five Elders before...
But... as Four Stars of the Navy Headquarters, highly valued by the high command of the Navy and the World Government, they had heard of the existence of the Five Elders from the Navy high-ups.
The Five Elders were beings below the One and above the Ten Thousand, capable of ruling the entire sea, wielding immense power and authority!
And a man like El was worth the Five Elders personally taking action.
And... four of them working together!!!
"Is this the reason you didn't want us to go to the New World, Fleet Admiral Kong?" Akainu said with a serious expression.
