Chapter 103: One Against Five

Boom!

With a deafening crash, Whitebeard leapt up suddenly, his burly figure especially conspicuous in midair. The naginata in his hand was wrapped in Conqueror's Haki, emitting an aura that made one's heart race.

"Hah!" Whitebeard roared in anger, his naginata cleaving the long sky.

The air seemed to be torn apart by this fierce strike, emitting a sharp whistle. At the same time, the power of the Gura Gura no Mi erupted fully, visible tremor waves spreading like ripples across the surfaces of two huge meteorites.

The next instant, a thunderous "Boom—" shook heaven and earth.

The two massive meteorites shattered like fragile glass under this terrifying force, countless fragments scattering in all directions, the entire Marineford trembling, the sea surface churning, hundred-meter-high giant waves.

When the dust settled, everyone was surprised to discover that Marineford's area had almost doubled, with new land emerging around the original island, pieced together from countless rubble and seabed rocks.

Whitebeard landed steadily, but suddenly let out a muffled groan, his complexion changing abruptly. His thick arm clutched his chest, clearly his old injury acting up again.

Even so, he still straightened his back, not letting his weakness show too obviously.

"Pops!"

The Captains on the ground saw this scene, their faces instantly turning pale, shouting in unison.

At this moment, a majestic voice rang out across the battlefield.

"Go all out to annihilate Madara Uchiha!"

Sengoku descended from the sky, landing heavily on the ground: "This man's threat is greater than Whitebeard's! At any cost, he must be taken down!"

He took a deep breath and continued: "His power has already exceeded our imagination. If not subdued soon, the entire world will fall into chaos!"

At this moment, Madara Uchiha's voice rang out again, with a hint of playfulness: "Oh? Finally getting serious? Then let me see what other tricks you have."

"Charge!"

At Sengoku's order, the five strongest Marine forces shot toward Madara Uchiha like arrows leaving a bow.

Garp and Akainu struck first.

Garp's iron fist was wrapped in pitch-black Armament Haki, the air around his fist distorting. Akainu's magma fist emitted rolling heat waves, wherever it passed the air was scorched and distorted.

"Hah!" Both roared simultaneously, one from the left and one from the right, their fists like shells booming toward Susanoo's chest.

Madara sensed danger and immediately controlled Susanoo to raise both arms, preparing to block this strike. But at this moment, a golden light flashed, and Sengoku's figure suddenly appeared before Susanoo.

"Dream on!"

Sengoku roared in anger, two shockwaves striking at the joints, Susanoo's arms were knocked aside, its chest completely exposed to Garp and Akainu's attacks.

"Boom!"

Amidst the deafening collision sound, spiderweb-like cracks instantly appeared on Susanoo's surface. Madara frowned, clearly not expecting the other side to break through Susanoo's defense.

At this moment, Aokiji seized the opportunity, pressing both hands heavily onto the ground.

"Ice Thorn Thrust!"

He growled lowly, countless sharp ice thorns shooting up like spring bamboo after rain, instantly firmly fixing Susanoo's two feet.

Kizaru's figure suddenly appeared in midair, transforming into a dazzling golden light.

"Light Speed Kick!"

A fierce light kick struck Madara's head like lightning.

Madara's eyes turned cold, Susanoo's arms swinging up again.

"Bang!" Kizaru's attack was precisely blocked, but the powerful impact still made Susanoo retreat half a step.

Madara did not pause at all, the huge great sword in Susanoo's hand had already whistled out.

The blade cut through the air, emitting an ear-piercing shriek, sweeping horizontally toward everyone. This strike contained astonishing power, seeming to split the entire battlefield in two.

At this critical moment, Sengoku's roar rang out. "Hah!"

Golden light burst forth, Sengoku's Buddha Form rising several meters again, like a golden great tower standing before everyone. He pressed his palms together, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

"Buddha's Shock!"

Golden energy surged out like a tide, meeting Madara's great sword. The two forces collided violently in midair, erupting in a deafening roar.

In an instant, the entire battlefield seemed frozen.

On one side was a blue Crow Tengu Samurai over a hundred meters tall, wielding a huge great sword, emitting a chilling killing intent. On the other side was a huge golden Buddha statue shining with golden light, solemn and dignified, seeming able to suppress all evil.

At this moment, it was as if mythical deities descended to the mortal world, unfolding a heaven-shaking duel.

Shockwaves swept out like a tsunami, unstoppable. Marines and Pirates kilometers away were instantly thrown into the air, scattering like fallen leaves in an autumn wind

Exclamations and screams rose and fell, mixed in the roaring sound.

"Scatter!!" A Marine Vice Admiral barely stabilized his body, looking pale at the distant battle, his voice filled with shock and fear: "This isn't a place we can interfere!"

A Pirate beside him laughed excitedly: "Heh heh! Five top Marine powers besieging one man, seeing such a scene, I can die without regret!"

His eyes flashed with fanatical light, completely immersed in this world-shocking battle.

The crowd around began to retreat rapidly, making more space for this top-level duel.

At this moment on the battlefield

A hint of surprise flashed in Madara's eyes; he hadn't expected Sengoku's Buddha's Shock to actually be able to match Susanoo's great sword.

Susanoo suddenly exerted force, wanting to withdraw the great sword, but found the blade locked tightly by an invisible force.

Veins bulged on Sengoku's forehead, his palms pressed together, his whole body emitting dazzling golden light. He gritted his teeth, determination flashing in his eyes: "Now!"

His voice had not yet fallen, four figures leaped into the air like arrows leaving a bow. Garp, Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru, four top Marine powers, struck simultaneously, their target aimed straight at Madara Uchiha's skull.

If this strike landed, even Susanoo would find it hard to resist.

However, facing such a critical situation, Madara Uchiha standing atop Susanoo not only did not panic in the slightest, but instead revealed a hint of an excited smile.

Fanatical light flashed in his eyes, as if facing not a life-and-death crisis, but a long-awaited feast.

"Good, come!" Fanatical light flashed in Madara's eyes, "Since Hashirama, it's been so long since such an exhilarating battle!"

His voice had not yet fallen, Madara Uchiha's eyes suddenly widened, emitting a heart-racing light, a strange aura suddenly permeating the air, as if the entire world was distorted.

"Rinnegan: Border Hell!" Madara's low growl echoed across the battlefield like thunder.

In an instant, four invisible shadows materialized out of thin air. Their speed was astonishing, and in the blink of an eye they crashed into four top Marine powers.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Four dull impact sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

"What?!" Garp, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru all exclaimed almost at the same time, their eyes filled with Disbelief.

They felt an unmatched force strike them, and their bodies flew backward uncontrollably.

Sengoku stood in place, his gaze fixed on Madara Uchiha.

His Observation Haki detected something unusual—four invisible shadows were protecting Madara in the center.

"Just what kind of ability is this?!" Sengoku muttered to himself, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
