101 Chapter 101
"Carnes, your tricks won't work on me. I won't allow you to escape unscathed," Garp declared firmly.
With the might of Conqueror's Haki enveloping his fist, Garp launched himself forward, delivering a devastating punch.
"Boom!!!"
"What?!"
"What in the world?"
A perplexed expression crossed Garp's face as a barrier of air materialized at a considerable distance away, shielding Carnes.
His powerful punch met this unexpected air barrier, and to his astonishment, it appeared that all the force behind his blow had been absorbed by the invisible wall of air.
Not even a drop of water was displaced.
From different directions, Whitebeard and Sengoku swiftly joined the scene.
While the Conqueror's Haki surged and intertwined, Whitebeard harnessed his Shock Shock Fruit abilities, and Sengoku unleashed the formidable power of Human-Human Fruit, Model: Buddha.
Yet, the outcome mirrored Garp's experience – the combined might of these three legendary figures, capable of shaking the very foundations of the world, failed to generate even the slightest splash of water on impact.
"What kind of Devil Fruit ability does this man possess?" Sengoku's countenance contorted into a mask of displeasure.
Regrettably, no answers were forthcoming.
In the blink of an eye, chaos erupted
A cataclysmic explosion originated from Carnes' location.
"Boom!!!"
The resulting sound echoed far and wide.
Monstrous clouds of smoke and dust surged skyward, an overwhelming display of force.
Sengoku, Garp, and Whitebeard found themselves violently propelled by the shockwave, sent hurtling through the air.
"Whooa…!"
This time around, their descent was unceremonious, colliding heavily with the ground before skidding to a halt.
Marineford itself trembled with unfathomable intensity, an extremely huge crack began to spread, a colossal fissure snaking its way into existence.
"Run! Marineford's splitting apart!"
"It's crumbling!"
In this moment, nearly all combatants paused their battle.
Both Marines and pirates abandoned their clashes, scrambling towards safer ground.
"Damn it, what in the world just occurred?"
"I saw it with my own eyes – Vice Admiral Garp, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and Whitebeard joined forces launched a coordinated assault towards."
"But with a tremendous bang, Vice Admiral Garp, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and Whitebeard were all blasted backward, sent hurtling back."
"What about Carnes? What's his condition?"
"No idea. But facing a simultaneous onslaught from three powerhouses like Garp, Sengoku, and Whitebeard isn't something this Carnes guy can easily endure."
"He might even be... dead."
"Dead?!"
Not far off, Marco's gaze flickered, his eyes involuntarily drawn toward the epicenter of the explosion.
Carnes, dead?
Could he truly be gone?
Could that enigmatic figure truly meet such an abrupt end, his demise have been so swift?
Yet, even as the thought flitted through his mind, Marco couldn't help but find amusement in it, he was amused by his own musings.
Indeed.
Believing Carnes could meet his demise so effortlessly seemed rather preposterous.
After all, if he could be killed so easy then how had circumstances escalated to this degree?
"Hey, it appears you hold no concern for your captain's life or death."
Abruptly, Marco's voice echoed breaking the silence, as he addressed Yuta, who stood not far away.
His words were met with the sharp noise of attention being caught.
Yuta grinned in immediate response, his words dripping with taunt: "Perhaps instead of fretting over our captain, you should be more concerned about your own leader..."
His statement hung in the air, filled with the weight of the situation.
Their conversation was cut short as a sudden noise caught their attention, drawing their gazes toward its source.
Yuta's gaze shifted, following the trajectory of the explosion's aftermath.
At that very moment, within the billowing shroud of smoke and dust, something extraordinary occurred.
From within the haze, a pristine white sphere emerged, soaring through the air before coming to an abrupt halt after covering some distance.
An electric symphony erupted as lightning bolts danced around the white sphere in a spectacular display, illuminating the sky with their electric brilliance..
"Look, do you see that?"
A cry rang out, unattributed to any specific voice.
All eyes turned skyward, seeking to unravel the mystery above.
"A sphere? What could it be?"
"I'm not sure... it came from where the explosion occurred."
"Could it be an attack of some form?"
"Can't say for certain, but there's an unsettling feeling in my heart..."
Uncertainty filled the voices, mingling with an underlying unease that began to intensify.
Assuredly, the sense of foreboding wasn't confined to the lower-ranking soldiers alone.
Even those in more prominent positions shared in the palpable anxiety, unable to shake the discomfort settling within them.
Sengoku and Garp exchanged glances, grappling with the decision of whether to attack or remain still, observing the unfolding events.
"Hey hey hey hey hey..."
From a distance, Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai, erupted into boisterous laughter.
Never could he have anticipated that his pursuit of amusement would yield such a riveting spectacle.
"Captain?"
Obito's eyes widened, fixated on the enigmatic white sphere.
His mind buzzed with curiosity, attempting to fathom Carnes' astonishing display. He pondered how Carnes could achieved this feat.
In this world devoid of the Ten-Tails, the very power structure differed entirely from his own.
Yet, Carnes held the status of Jinchūriki, possessing the ability to embody the Ten-Tails and transcending into the mantle of Sage of Six Paths.
"Hahaha."
