Immortality

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place was stunned and the air seemed to freeze in an instant.

Almost everyone turned to look at the Marine soldier who had rushed into the square.

Feeling the atmosphere suddenly become somewhat strange, the soldier who had mustered the courage to shout "kill him a few more times" first forced a smile, then prepared to leave the square with a fearful expression.

However, just as he turned around, he realized something was off.

As a Marine under the Fleet Admiral, how could he falter at this moment?

Thinking this, the soldier quickly stopped and turned his head to the CP members who were all staring at him, arrogantly declaring.

"Hey you, a bunch of cowards, what are you looking at? Never seen such a bold Marine before?"

"????"

The CP members closest to the Marine camp were all left baffled.

Before these CP members could react, Ethanbaron was also infuriated by the sudden shout from the Marine soldier.

In contrast, Sengoku had a different reaction.

"Ahahahaha, since Orion has spoken, today, I will risk my life to take down Ethanbaron!"

The giant Buddha form of Sengoku boomed, his bold and arrogant voice soaring into the sky, echoing over Pangaea Square.

"Sengoku, are you really going to do this?"

Ethanbaron did not unleash his Devil Fruit powers.

Gripping the sheath with one hand and tightly holding the black sword with the other, he stared intently at Sengoku, his voice low.

"Even with Orion backing you, you cannot act recklessly in the Holy Land."

"Don't waste words, let me kill you once first!"

Sengoku raised his Buddha palm high and a tremendous shockwave surged forth.

In the next moment, he stepped forward and the terrifying shockwave from his Buddha palm came crashing down on Ethanbaron.

"SENGOKU!!!"

Ethanbaron, not expecting Sengoku to go after him in front of so many onlookers, angrily cursed.

"Have you lost your mind? How could I collude with pirates while the Marine and pirates are at war! Don't forget, I am also one of the Five Elders!"

BOOM――

Sengoku ignored him and his massive palm struck down towards Ethanbaron.

With a deafening explosion that resonated throughout the Holy Land, the terrifying shockwave swept through, forcing the onlookers around the square to hastily retreat.

"My goodness, Sengoku-san is really going to take down Ethanbaron!"

"I didn't expect Sengoku-san to have such a fierce side. Brothers, don't just watch, shout out!"

"Sengoku-san is so strong!"

"Go for it, Sengoku-san! Take down Ethanbaron and you'll be the God of War for the environment and finance!"

"The God of Finance sounds great, managing the World Government finances and allocating all the funds to the Marine, ahahaha~"

As cheers erupted from the Marine ranks, the CP members next door could no longer sit still.

A middle-aged man from the CP5 squad jumped out and shouted at the shouting Marine soldiers.

"Hey, hey, have you had enough? Be quiet!"

"That's right, don't think that just because you have the Marine Fleet Admiral backing you, no one will dare to provoke you. This is the Holy Land!"

"The Marine has been too arrogant lately!"

Seeing someone from the CP5 squad stand up, members from CP1, CP3, CP8 and even CP9 and CP0 also couldn't hold back, standing up to criticize the Marine.

As more and more people took a stand against the Marine, the previously boisterous Marine camp suddenly fell silent.

Then, the leading Vice Admiral pressed his hand on the hilt of his long sword, his sharp gaze slowly sweeping over the CP members who had stood up to shout.

Once he had scanned the entire area and confirmed his target, the Vice Admiral stepped forward.

Clang――

The suddenly quiet Marine soldiers, without exception, followed the Vice Admiral in unison, their killing intent erupting like an invisible wave surging towards the opposing side.

Feeling the overwhelming killing intent approaching, the CP members who had been loud just a moment ago instantly fell silent, with some who were worried about the situation retreating discreetly behind their companions.

However, there were still some stubborn individuals who stood their ground defiantly, glaring at the Marine.

Seeing this, the Vice Admiral took another step forward, slowly drawing his long sword from its sheath, exuding a fierce killing intent!

"We, the Marine, are indeed arrogant. So what? Not satisfied?!"

"What if we are not satisfied?"

A man standing in front of the CP8 squad immediately released his armament Haki, hardening his fist in defiance.

"Without Fleet Admiral Orion, what are you? How dare you call out the name of Lord Ethanbaron V. Nasuro, who is a Celestial Dragon? Who gave you the courage?"

"Do I need to ask?" The Vice Admiral boldly drew his sword, crazily declaring.

"Of course, it's the courage given by the Fleet Admiral!"

Before his words fell, the Vice Admiral suddenly dashed out, shouting.

"MARINES, GET READY AND TAKE DOWN THESE TRASH!"

"ROOAARRR!"

Without waiting for the Vice Admiral command to finish, the Marine soldiers, who had been waiting impatiently charged forward in a frenzy attacking any CP member in sight with craze expression.

As the Marine surged forward, the entire square was thrown into chaos, with shouts, clashes and screams intertwining, creating a battle song.

Surprisingly, neither side, the Marine nor the various CP organizations opened fire, they either clashed with blades or engaged in hand-to-hand combat, bringing an unprecedented great chaos to the previously dull Pangaea Square.

The sudden outbreak of chaos left the Celestial Dragons watching from the periphery utterly dumbfounded.

In the center of the square, Sengoku who was relentlessly pursuing Ethanbaron with his Buddha palms and fists, did not attempt to stop the chaos outside the square.

Instead, he laughed heartily "Now that's some real enthusiasm."

"So, Ethanbaron how do you want to die?"

As his words fell, the enormous Buddha palm came crashing down on Ethanbaron once more.

"Crazy, they're all crazy!"

Facing the overwhelming Buddha impact, Ethanbaron dodged and leaped while roaring in frustration.

"Sengoku, I told you, that matter was not my doing! What evidence do you have? Can you at least show it? If this situation continues to escalate, it will surely alarm Lord Im!"

"And so what?" Sengoku relentlessly pursued, his Buddha palm flying with an overwhelming aura.

"I'm not afraid of Im!"

Upon hearing this, Ethanbaron mouth twitched violently.

Sengoku might not be afraid, but he was!

If he angered Lord Im, he would surely meet his end.

It was precisely for this reason that he dared not let go of the fight with Sengoku, merely dodging.

After narrowly avoiding Sengoku pursuit again, Ethanbaron exploded with rage.

"I did indeed target Fleet Admiral Orion, it was I who initiated the investigation team into the Marine. But you and I both know that I did this for the stability of the World Government. Now that Orion has taken full control of the Marine and has even gained Lord Im favor, how could I dare to target him with schemes, especially colluding with pirates!"

Sengoku did not listen and slammed down his palm.

This time, Ethanbaron did not dodge but stood firm to endure Sengoku's Buddha impact.

BOOM――

With a deafening explosion, the terrifying Buddha impact crushed half of Ethanbaron body and the violent shockwave swept away the remnants of his half-destroyed form, sending him flying out of Pangaea Square.

Unexpectedly, Ethanbaron didn't dodge but chose to withstand Sengoku Buddha Impact.

Sengoku was momentarily stunned, then focused his gaze on Ethanbaron who had been sent flying out of the square.

Outside the square, Ethanbaron now with only half his body intact, was not only still alive but also showed no signs of bleeding from his shattered form.

What shocked Sengoku the most was that Ethanbaron broken body was recovering at an astonishing rate as he stood up from the grass outside the square.

In the blink of an eye, Ethanbaron reappeared in his line of sight, completely unharmed.

"Huh?"

Seeing Ethanbaron body mysteriously restored to its original state, Sengoku pupils slightly contracted as he inwardly exclaimed.

"An immortal body?"
