"What is that?"

"Iron sand? It's the captain's ability."

"A monster?"

"Hahaha, you really deserve to be the captain. You can do anything."

"After doing something like that, the captain really is a pervert."

"Of course, our captain has to be like an emperor—a figure who faces the sea."

Bege and the others, who were about to leave, returned to the ship and looked back.

They saw an iron sand giant nearly 100 meters tall appear on the island.

Everyone exclaimed.

"What's that?" The Marines who were chasing Bege and the others also saw the giant iron sand figure on Barlow Island.

"A monster?"

"The giant made of iron sand and lightning is so tall, at least 100 meters high. Is this Gabriel Yuri's ability? It seems we've greatly underestimated Gabriel Yuri's strength."

"I feel that this iron sand giant contains terrifying energy, and the energy is constantly growing, accumulating electricity."

"How do I feel it is stronger than Vice Admiral Sakazuki?"

"No, hurry up and report this to Naval Headquarters. This incident has greatly exceeded our original estimate."

"Boom!" At that moment, a huge roar sounded from the island, shaking it entirely.

...

Akainu looked at the 100-meter-tall iron sand giant and showed a look of horror.

There are giants in this world, but the average height of adults is only about a dozen or twenty meters.

And the height of this iron sand giant is hundreds of meters, right?

I'm afraid only magical talents can match this height.

Moreover, the lightning flashes on the iron sand giant, and the iron sand vibrates and rubs, producing a large amount of lightning, which brings more powerful force to the iron sand giant.

"It's just becoming huge. It's nothing more than a pile of rubbish," Akainu frowned and said coldly.

"A pile of rubbish? Then you can taste the power of this pile of rubbish!" Yuri said with a smile.

Just after Yuri spoke, the iron sand giant moved, and his huge arm grabbed Akainu.

The hands of the iron sand giant were specially processed, densely covered with lightning, containing terrifying electromagnetic force.

The iron sand on the five fingers vibrated and rotated at extreme speed, like five sharp electric drills.

He slapped Akainu with a buzzing roar.

Akainu's face changed, and his body disappeared in a flash.

The palm of the iron sand giant slapped the ground where Akainu was standing.

"Boom!" A huge roar sounded, and the entire island shook from the impact.

The ground where Akainu had stood was filled with magma, which splashed from the impact.

Huge cracks formed in the ground all around.

"The power is greater than expected. It seems it's not just about size," Akainu said, appearing on a boulder nearby, frowning at the iron sand giant's palm.

At this moment, the iron sand giant attacked again.

The iron sand giant didn't need to move; the arm made of iron sand could extend automatically.

The strong electromagnetic force on the arm brought strong power to the arm and palm.

Chasing Akainu with one hand, it was just a palm shot.

Akainu dodged again, and the palm slapped the boulder where Akainu was standing.

The boulder was instantly shattered by the sharp five fingers.

"Weren't you just arrogantly wanting to grasp Impel Down and execute me on the spot? How can you just avoid it now? You can't beat me by dodging," Yuri taunted Akainu.

"I'm not that foolish!" Akainu sneered.

Although Akainu is iron-willed, it doesn't mean he's reckless or stupid.

"Try to avoid this one; I think you can manage it," Yuri shouted.

At the same time, the iron sand giant raised his arm, bent his index finger, and pointed it at Akainu.

"Is that so?" Akainu said, his expression changing when he saw the iron sand giant's movements.

Just as Akainu finished speaking, "Boom!" A huge orange-red light flew out from the iron sand giant's hand.

Fast, super fast. This speed completely exceeded three times the speed of sound.

The orange light flashed and hit Akainu's face.

Akainu's palms pushed out fiercely, and an invisible Armament Haki rushed out of his palms, hitting the orange electromagnetic cannon.

"Boom!" With this impact, the entire island shook, and the air roared and twisted from the impact.

"Uh!" The terrifying force struck, making Akainu show a trace of pain.

"How is it possible that this power is so much stronger than Gabriel Yuri's usual strength? Is it because of the large amount of electricity accumulated in the iron sand?" Akainu said in shock.

The huge electromagnetic cannon with terrible penetrating power constantly impacted Akainu's Armament Haki.

Akainu felt his Armament Haki being pierced layer by layer.

"Drink!" Akainu burst out, and powerful colorless Armament Haki rushed out, finally deflecting the super-electromagnetic cannon.

"Not bad, but can you take the next one? How many more can you handle?" Yuri said with a smile.

"Boom!" The huge electromagnetic cannon fired again from the iron sand giant, hitting Akainu accurately.
