"Admiral Aramaki…"
The surrounding Marines were completely shaken.
This ti, Aramaki did not stand up again. His eyes rolled back and his body collapsed heavily onto the ground. His clothes were torn apart and the white cloak of justice that once rested on his shoulders had already vanished sowhere in the chaos of the battlefield.
"We… we won?"
Yamato pressed one hand against her wound and stared at the fallen Admiral. Through her Observation Haki, she could clearly sense it now. Aramaki had truly lost consciousness.
"Well done, Ace."
Just then, Sak arrived beside Ace and spoke in a serious tone.
"Sak…"
Ace looked relieved the mont he saw him.
Sak's expression remained calm. "Can you still fight? Next, we wipe out the remaining Marines in one strike, then deal with the God's Knights. As for the Gorosei, we can only trust Marco and the others to handle them."
Ace nodded slowly. A long-lost smile finally appeared on his face.
Even though it had been a two-against-one battle, they had still defeated an Admiral.
With Aramaki defeated, the only top-tier combat power left on the Marine side of the battlefield was Admiral Fujitora.
At this mont, Fujitora was being attacked by the Captains from the Sixth Division all the way to the Eighteenth Division at the sa ti. Even though several Marine Vice Admirals were helping him share the pressure, he was still constantly being surrounded from every direction.
The strength of these Captains might not be exactly on the level of Fire Fist Ace, but the difference was not very large. Even with support, it was extrely difficult for Fujitora alone to reverse the situation.
"Mr. Aramaki has actually lost… it seems the situation has beco even more uncertain."
Fujitora's expression turned increasingly grim. His Observation Haki was incredibly powerful, so he could clearly feel what was happening across the battlefield. Pirates and Marines were dying every mont. The casualties were rising rapidly.
Especially on the side of the Phoenix Pirates. They were the main force facing the thirty thousand Marine soldiers this ti.
"How useless. An Admiral actually lost so easily."
An arrogant voice suddenly echoed across the battlefield.
Both the Marines and the pirates turned their heads at the sa ti.
Five mbers of the God's Knights had arrived.
They had received Saint Garling's direct order to support the Marines. No matter what, the Marines were still the public face of the World Governnt. If even the last two Admirals were defeated, the damage to the World Governnt's prestige would be enormous.

On another side of the battlefield, Kaido was facing Saint V. Nusjuro and Saint Garling at the sa ti.
Originally, Saint V. Nusjuro's strength had already been slightly above Kaido's. However, Kaido's terrifying combat talent allowed him to grow stronger the longer the battle continued. He had gradually reached a point where he could fight Nusjuro on equal footing.
But just as the battle reached that balance, Saint Garling joined the fight.
In an instant, Kaido was pushed into a disadvantage.
King, Jack, and the Tobiroppo tried to rush over to support him, but all of them were intercepted by the other mbers of the God's Knights.
Even while being surrounded by two top-tier enemies, Kaido did not show fear. Instead, he beca even more excited.
"Worororo… so this is the combined strength of the Captain of the God's Knights and one of the Gorosei? Not bad at all."
Saint V. Nusjuro looked at him coldly. "I admit your strength. Even though you are nothing more than a mortal, you possess power close to that of a god. However, defeating us is still impossible."
Kaido wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"Impossible? That makes it even better."
Both Nusjuro and Garling frowned slightly. To them, Kaido sounded completely insane.
Kaido laughed loudly, his voice filled with madness.
"A long ti ago, I wanted to drag you Celestial Dragons down from the sky and force you into a real war. Only in war does true equality exist."
"And now my dream has finally co true. You so-called gods have been dragged into the battlefield by ."
"The only regret I have is that I couldn't drag every Celestial Dragon into this war. What a pity."
His eyes burned with madness as he spoke again.
"If I cannot break through in this desperate situation… then I would rather die at your hands."
"Co on! God's Knights, Gorosei, all of you… co and kill !"
Saint Garling spoke coldly, "Incomprehensible."
Saint V. Nusjuro added in a cold voice, "In the end, he is still just a pirate. Even if he is called the strongest creature on land, sea, and air, he is nothing more than a beast."

On another side of the battlefield, Big Mom's situation was far worse.
She was completely unable to match Saint Peter.
Throughout the entire battle, she had been suppressed from beginning to end. She could only defend and was even starting to think about retreating.
But her rational mind quickly stopped her.
Even if she ran, where could she go?
Whole Cake Island had already been targeted by the Gorosei. If both Kaido and Marco were defeated here, the Big Mom Pirates would have absolutely no way to survive.
Thinking of this, Big Mom could only grit her teeth and continue fighting while loudly ordering Brulee to keep transferring troops from Whole Cake Island.
Not only her.
The Beasts Pirates and the Phoenix Pirates were also continuously mobilising reinforcents. This war had already beco a battle that would decide the future.
If they won, the Three Emperors Alliance would completely dominate the New World.
If they lost, the alliance would disappear forever.

At the sa ti, Katakuri was facing Shamlok Columbus Saint.
The two of them were fighting completely evenly.
"As expected of the second-in-command of the Big Mom Pirates," Columbus Saint said with an exaggerated tone. "Your strength is truly impressive."
Katakuri did not answer.
The Observation Haki of the man in front of him had already reached the level of seeing the future. Although it was not as deep as his own ability, it was still enough to put enormous pressure on him.
Especially the opponent's ability of immortality.
That was the real problem.
Katakuri could not find a way to deal with his enemy.
