37 End?

As the turbulent waves of the sea crash against the rocky shores of God's Valley, Vice Admiral Sengoku's ship cuts through the mist with a sense of urgency.

Standing at the prow, his expression grave and determined, Sengoku scans the horizon with steely eyes, sensing the weight of impending conflict.

With a sense of urgency, Sengoku disembarked from his ship onto the rocky shores, his footsteps quickening as he moved towards the epicenter of the chaos.

In the distance, he spotted the aftermath of the fierce battle between Garp, Roger, and Xebec.

'Swoosh!' Rising into the air with the power of his Devil Fruit abilities, Sengoku swiftly closes the distance, his heart sinking as he witnesses the dire state of the combatants below.

Garp lay battered, bleeding from every part of his body, especially his arms, it seems that he took on the brunt of Xebec's attacks with his fist.

Roger on the other hand was much better off compared to Garp, itwas clear that Garp had used his body to tank most of Xebec's attacks.

Roger's figure was laid out against a piece of rock, as he struggled to stand using his sword Ace as support. But as he was about to fall 'Swoosh!' the figure of Silvers Rayleigh appeared behind him to catch him.

"We have to go, Roger!" Rayleigh uttered urgently, it was clear that he had found out what was about to happen.

"What's go…going on Rayleigh?" Roger asked breathlessly.

"No time to explain, but this island is likely to become history." Rayleigh tried to explain as quickly as possible.

And this shocked Roger, although they hadn't yet discovered all the secrets of the World, they had come across some things, so he had an idea of what Rayleigh's words meant.

"You mean…?" "Yeah, let's go, that's why Sengoku probably rushed over here."

As Sengoku lifted Garp to take him away, Garp's gaze ran across the injured figure of Xebec, who throughout their entire interaction, just stood there, guarded against Sengoku and Rayleigh, with his hands clenched on his sword ready to defend at any time.

Right now, he was standing with his sheer willpower, he had exhausted all his physical strength and energy in the fight with Roger and Garp.

And based on the words he heard from Sengoku and Rayleigh, he knew that something terrible was about to happen, especially when he saw the shocked expression on Rogers's face.

But while Garp and Roger's allies came to save them, his were nowhere to be seen. In fact, he had sensed a while ago that his crew members had started to retreat after Whitebeard came back from his fight with Figarland.

'Is this how it ends for me, Rocks D. Xebec?'

…

In the opulent chambers of Mary Geoise, the celestial capital of the World Government, Imu sits upon an ornate throne, surrounded by shadowy figures whose faces are hidden by the darkness. Imu, cloaked in regal attire befitting her status, exudes an aura of enigma and power as she gazes upon a massive map spread out before her.

With a flick of her wrist, Imu produces a quill pen, its tip gleaming ominously in the dim light of the chamber. With deliberate movements, she begins to scratch at the surface of the map, tracing lines that intersect with the once proud and storied island of God Valley.

As Imu's quill dances across the parchment, a low, rumbling sound echoes through the chamber, a prelude to the cataclysmic events about to unfold.

At the same time, the Pirates, Marines, and World Government agents had already retreated from the perimeter of God's Valley.

High above the clouds of God Valley, a massive, otherworldly machine stirs to life, its metallic frame pulsating with a vibrant energy.

'Shhing!!!'

From the heart of this colossal contraption emerges a blinding beam of light, piercing through the thick veil of clouds and descending upon God Valley with relentless force.

'BOOM!!!'

The light engulfs the island in a blinding cascade of energy, obliterating everything in its path with a deafening roar.

And whiles all of this was going on, Ephon in this distance had already taken out his camera, taken numerous pictures, and was currently videoing this unbelievable phenomenon.

"Would I be able to survive a head-on collision from this?" Ephon thought aloud as he observed the power of the attack.

The thing is, Ephon honestly doesn't know the limit of his Physique, not to mention its monstrous defense, he knows for certain that with his crazy amount of physical energy, his limbs can properly be regenerated if they were ever to be decapitated.

So he isn't sure, and honestly… he doesn't want to find out, which is why he is here trying to come up with countermeasures to defend against this weapon.

He honestly believes that Apollo's 'Prison Prison' fruit might be one of the reasons, the World Government didn't target them with something like this.

Yes, Apollo is a devil fruit user, a weird one at that, his Paramecia Musho Musho no Mi allows him to access his own personal space that grows alongside his physical strength.

It is a space-type devil fruit, which was a surprise to Ephon and Nolan at the time when they found out. But Apollo didn't like his fruit, because he felt that it didn't help him offensively, and he was kinda right to feel that way.

His devil fruit granted him the ability to enter the space, along with anyone he considers a prisoner. And those people will automatically be shackled upon entering the space, but for the strong, those shackles are nothing but a nuisance.

Not to mention that the only way for them to enter is by him leading them through a prison gate that materializes in reality in front of him.

Which isn't much of an offensive ability for someone like him who seeks to fight head-on with his opponents.

But Ephon saw this another way, at the time, although the space could only hold about 100 people, Ephon believed it to be the trump card of his pirate crew in case they ever had to defend against the world government's secret weapon.

The truth is, Apollo used to be the weakest of the five elders, although he didn't like to admit it, but, he was still ranked higher than Lola in terms of bounty at that period of time.

The reason is simple, that is, the world government found out about his ability which raised his bounty by 50 million. And at that time, 50 million was probably comparable to 200 to 300 million in canon.

Ephon couldn't imagine what actions the World Government would have taken against them if it wasn't for the existence of Apollo's ability. 

Wrrr! Crack!

A deafening roar echoed across the seas, along with the crashing of the waves. 'Sigh… hopefully, Fuma can do something with this.'

Looking at the sight before him, such a thought ran across Ephon's mind. 'Boom!' In a final act of defiance, God's Valley begins to crumble into the abyss of the sea, its once majestic form vanishing beneath the churning waters as it is swallowed by the very depths of history.

All that remains in the aftermath is a vast expanse of empty sea, devoid of any trace of the island that once stood as a testament to the times.
