"Hello, hello… this is Kizaru. Please respond."
Standing tall beneath his Justice coat, Admiral Kizaru (Borsalino) spoke lazily into the Den Den Mushi on his wrist. One hand remained casually tucked in his pocket, his tone carefree.
"The Admiral Kizaru is here! Run!!"
Hundreds—no, thousands—of pirates scattered in panic.
At the sa ti, the Marines from the warships began their operation.
"Capture all pirates on the island!"
"Pay special attention to those with bounties over 100 million Beli!"
Kizaru scratched his head lazily.
"Oh my… what a troubleso job."
But in the next mont, a glint flashed beneath his brown-tinted sunglasses.
He looked toward the fleeing pirates.
Then slowly raised his leg.
His entire leg turned into golden light.
SHING!
A beam of light streaked forward like a laser.
BOOM!!
A massive Mangrove Tree was kicked clean in half.
The explosion engulfed the entire Grove 27.
Buildings collapsed instantly.
The pirates fleeing nearby were either killed or gravely injured.
"AAAAH!!"
Even many Marines froze in shock.
So this is an Admiral…
Every attack is like a natural disaster.
Soon their shock turned to excitent.
"With an Admiral like this—what pirate could possibly run wild?!"
Morale soared.
The Marines rushed forward to capture the surviving pirates.
On the Marine Battleship
Two Marine officers stared at the devastation.
"Isn't the Admiral being a little reckless?!"
"No matter how motivated he is, he shouldn't be kicking down Mangrove Trees!"
The older officer puffed on his cigar.
"You're still too young."
"A Celestial Dragon was killed."
"I've served in the Marines for twenty years, and I've never heard of sothing like this."
"Straw Hat Luffy has already torn open the heavens."
"The entire lawless zone—maybe even the whole Sabaody Archipelago—might be wiped out."
"…What?!"
The surrounding Marines stared in disbelief.
And fear.
Shakky's Rip-off Bar
Luffy and Rayleigh exchanged a glance.
Both saw the seriousness in the other's eyes.
Rayleigh turned to the Straw Hat crew.
"You've caused too much trouble this ti."
"Kizaru has already landed."
"And he won't be the only one."
"Akainu or Aokiji will most likely arrive as well."
"Go to Grove 41 imdiately and leave the island."
"We'll worry about coating the ship later."
"Got it," Luffy said simply.
He turned and led his crew out.
Luffy's Thoughts
Luffy didn't use the Goro Goro no Mi lightning speed to leave.
Not because he couldn't.
But because he shouldn't.
While Luffy sensed Kizaru—
Kizaru was also watching him.
As a notorious slacker, Kizaru would definitely co test him sooner or later.
If that was inevitable—
It was better to escort his crew a safe distance first.
What a pain…
A certain figure flashed through Luffy's mind.
Will things still unfold like they originally did…?
Scratchn Apoo vs Kizaru
On a distant rooftop, two n observed the chaos.
"That's terrifying… so that's Admiral Kizaru!"
"Mr. Apoo, we're in danger! Let's run!"
The subordinate trembled.
Apoo wrapped an arm around the man's neck with a grin.
"Idiot."
"What's the fun in sneaking away quietly?"
"You've got to piss off the enemy first, then run!"
"W-What do you an?"
Before the man could react—
A voice spoke behind them.
"Oh? I wanted to ask sothing."
Cold sweat drenched them instantly.
They turned around slowly.
Kizaru was already standing behind them, leaning forward slightly.
Apoo imdiately launched into his ability.
Music echoed through the air.
He danced and sang—
But his calm composure was gone.
Watching from afar and facing an Admiral directly were completely different experiences.
Kizaru tilted his head curiously.
Yet amusent flickered in his eyes.
Apoo kept him "locked" with his music.
Then suddenly—
"Boom!"
Kizaru's body exploded into pieces.
Arms, legs, torso—blown apart.
But Apoo didn't celebrate.
He ran.
Desperately.
No way an Admiral dies that easily.
He only wanted to escape.
Suddenly—
A trail of golden light appeared.
A shining shoe expanded in Apoo's vision.
BANG!
Kizaru's kick launched him into the air.
He smashed into a mangrove tree.
BOOM!!
Another massive explosion.
The Marines cleaning up afterward were completely numb.
Jewelry Bonney's Escape
At the harbor, Jewelry Bonney sat atop a high structure.
Below her—
Marines had been turned into children and elderly people.
"What a masterpiece," she said smugly.
"Jewelry Bonney — bounty: 140 million Beli!"
The Marines stared at her in fear.
Capone Bege's Mafia Warfare
Elsewhere, Marines surrounded a short man smoking a cigar.
"Capone Bege — bounty: 138 million Beli!"
"Surrender!"
"Where are your n? Did you split up?"
Bege sneered.
"No."
"You've already lost."
"The difference in numbers is too great."
Suddenly—
Small holes appeared across his body.
Inside were hundreds of tiny soldiers.
Miniature cannons aid outward.
BOOM!
Dozens of marble-sized cannonballs fired out.
The mont they hit the air—
They expanded into full-sized artillery shells.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Explosions shattered the Marine formation.
Imdiately afterward—
Mounted gangsters rode out of Bege's body.
In an instant—
Bege achieved overwhelming victory.
Basil Hawkins vs Kizaru
Near a fountain, Basil Hawkins sat quietly.
But his mind churned.
"My survival rate…"
"50%… 30%… 10%…"
He suddenly stood up.
Just as he called to his crew—
A voice appeared in front of him.
"I'd like to ask you sothing."
Kizaru stood there.
Without warning.
Hawkins' eyes widened.
His body trembled.
"Battle… defeat probability… 100%."
"Escape success rate… 1%."
"Survival rate… 1%."
Kizaru asked casually:
"Do you know soone nad Sentomaru?"
"I… don't know him."
"Oh."
Kizaru rubbed his forehead.
"That's unfortunate."
Then he raised his leg.
"Speed is weight."
"Have you ever been kicked… at the speed of light?"
For a mont—
The world seed frozen.
BOOM!!
Hawkins crashed into a wall.
Yet monts later—
He walked out of the rubble unhard.
A burnt straw doll fell to the ground.
I wonder if my ten substitute dolls can withstand an Admiral…
Suddenly—
Kizaru pointed his finger.
PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW
Laser beams rained down.
In less than a second—
All ten straw substitutes were destroyed.
"…What?!"
Even Hawkins lost his composure.
His carefully prepared trump cards had vanished instantly.
A golden laser condensed on Kizaru's fingertip.
Death closed in.
Is this… my fate?
Hawkins closed his eyes.
Unexpected Reinforcents
Suddenly—
A massive body crashed toward Kizaru.
BOOM!
The giant figure slamd into the ground.
Kizaru casually sidestepped.
And began watching.
A huge figure landed nearby.
A Pacifista.
A cyborg modeled after Bartholow Kuma.
"Failed… you're really strong," said Urouge, climbing up with blood pouring from his wounds.
"There's soone even stronger!" Hawkins shouted.
"If we want that 1% chance—we need to cooperate!"
Urouge's expression twisted.
"…Don't tell …"
"Kizaru?!"
Even the proud Supernovas weren't foolish enough to think they could defeat an Admiral.
Urouge's body suddenly swelled to giant proportions, ripping apart his clothes.
"Then we'll have to fight!"
He threw a massive punch.
The air roared.
Kizaru sighed.
"How frightening… these Supernovas nowadays."
He raised a finger.
A laser pierced straight through Urouge.
Just as he moved again—
Kizaru suddenly stopped.
Then kicked Urouge sideways.
BOOM!
The force sent Urouge smashing through multiple buildings.
Drake Appears
At the sa ti—
A man wielding a sword in one hand and an axe in the other knocked away the Pacifista.
"Long ti no see, Rear Admiral Drake," Kizaru greeted lazily.
X Drake frowned.
"So it's you, Kizaru."
As a forr Marine officer, Drake understood perfectly—
The gap between himself and an Admiral.
Against other Admirals, maybe he could escape in the chaos.
But against Kizaru…
If Kizaru didn't want you to leave—
You wouldn't leave.
Unless…
Kizaru deliberately let you go.
Drake couldn't imagine any other way to escape.
