Chapter 549: Mary Geoise’s Sudden Upheaval
It is said that, in the later stages of the World Conference, only a few dozen people in Mary Geoise remained conscious enough to witness that shocking scene.
And anyone who stood there drenched in cold sweat, watching the sky and sea being torn apart, had their entire worldview instantly shattered.
How... could monsters of such terrifying power possibly exist in this world?!!!
"Imu-sama!!!!"
The Elder at the center of the collision had their pupils shrink to the limit, cold sweat pouring down their faces.
Because they were too close, they could not even steady themselves. Forced out of their Mythical Beast forms back into human shapes, they dropped to one knee, faces filled with horror.
Before their eyes, the black arrow representing Imu-sama’s attack was locked in a fierce struggle against a mysterious power.
"This aura... has Orin arrived?!!!"
Saint Shepherd Ju Peter gripped his staff tightly, resisting the unbelievably powerful shockwaves as his cloak whipped violently in the wind.
He felt it—the power of Conqueror’s Haki... and an incomparably pitch-black force belonging to one of the fundamental laws: space itself!!!
"No... at least within Observation Haki, no other person exists here."
Saint Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro planted his blade into the ground. The lenses of his glasses had already shattered, and he stared forward through gritted teeth.
"But this is undeniably his power. Was it sealed through some method?!!!"
Only after the smoke cleared did they finally see clearly—
Colliding directly with Imu-sama’s black arrow was a black cube floating in midair.
An almost endless storm of Conqueror’s Haki lightning erupted violently from the strange, divine black box.
"What?!"
Imu’s gaze turned serious. The power of the King of the World began to fully manifest, Haki surging continuously across the black arrow as if attempting to break through the black box’s blockade.
The Elders, having lived for so many years, naturally possessed keen insight.
"Is this a construct created by an ability that sealed massive quantities of Haki?"
"The Haki is indeed astonishing... but if that’s all, it cannot truly block Imu-sama’s attack."
"Stored Conqueror’s Haki will eventually run out. We, however, are immortal."
They were almost certain that although King Keek might struggle briefly, he would ultimately die here.
"After Imu-sama kills King Keek, how should we deal with Orin’s retaliation?"
"Hard to say... aside from Imu-sama, there is practically no force capable of opposing him. Even Admirals or the God’s Knights would be the same."
"The World Government may fall into the most passive situation in its entire history..."
The Elders discussed the matter heavily among themselves, yet they had not reached despair.
After all, Imu-sama, themselves, and the members of the God’s Knights were all immortal beings.
As for CP organizations or the Navy—they were merely subordinates.
As long as the foundation remained, everything could be rebuilt.
They were already considering what to do after being reduced to commanders without armies.
Meanwhile, the Conqueror’s Haki within the black box continued to diminish as it clashed with Imu. The stored Haki was ultimately limited.
Keek looked at the black cube before him with complicated emotions.
He silently realized that today might truly be his end. Baring his teeth in a grin, he looked toward Imu, prepared to calmly face death.
"The power unleashed by the most dazzling monsters of this world is never something that can be ignored or suppressed!!!"
"How much longer do you think you can remain seated upon that throne?"
Facing the Elders and Imu, old Keek laughed and declared:
"The magnificent history belonging to monsters—will never reach its end!!!"
"Arrogant!!!"
Imu’s layered, ringed pupils radiated murderous fury. The overwhelming dominance cultivated through eight hundred years of ruling the world fully erupted at this moment.
Even Ace and Sabo, positioned at the outskirts, were affected. Their pupils trembled uncontrollably.
How could such Conqueror’s Haki exist in this world?!!!
As a Conqueror’s Haki user himself, Ace understood more clearly than anyone the immense, nearly insurmountable gap between different levels of Conqueror’s Haki users.
And Sabo, for once, said nothing about defeating Imu and the Elders. He simply sprinted forward without hesitation.
Not only them—
The Revolutionary Army commanders locked in fierce battle with Admirals Fujitora and Ryokugyu also stopped fighting.
Ryokugyu was even forced out of his Forest Giant form by the supreme clash of Conqueror’s Haki, reverting to normal as pain covered his face.
"You’ve got to be kidding... this level of Conqueror’s Haki..."
Even the ever-composed Fujitora now gripped his sword tightly, cold sweat covering his face.
"Under this Conqueror’s Haki... I can hear the world itself trembling and crying."
Garling, the "King" who dominated God Valley, could no longer sit calmly where he was.
This Conqueror’s Haki reminded him of forty years ago—the helpless sensation of being effortlessly crushed as if he were nothing more than a speed bump.
"Another king... challenging the [World]..."
No one knew exactly what had happened inside the World Government that day.
Even the most advanced Den Den Mushi were completely knocked unconscious by the raging clash of Conqueror’s Haki.
All people knew was this—
the "split sky" stretching across the entire sea, spreading all the way to Marineford and even the Sabaody Archipelago.
...
"What kind of joke is this?!!!"
"You’re telling me this Conqueror’s Haki clash came from the direction of Mary Geoise?!!!"
New Marine Headquarters.
Inside the Fleet Admiral’s office, a man wearing a cap crushed his cigar violently as he roared toward the Den Den Mushi.
Fleet Admiral — Sakazuki.
"Do you even understand what you’re saying, Ryokugyu?!!!"
"The range of that Conqueror’s Haki collision has already reached Marine Headquarters!!!
Countless Marines lost consciousness instantly! Panic is spreading everywhere—and at a time like this..."
Just thinking about it gave Sakazuki a pounding headache. Order was already collapsing.
The Revolutionary Army had incited rebellions across several nations. The Navy had just prepared to deploy the Seraphim to suppress the uprisings.
Before the orders could even be issued, the aftershock of a Conqueror’s Haki clash—so powerful that even he broke into cold sweat—swept in from the distant horizon.
Ninety-nine percent of Marine personnel collapsed unconscious on the spot.
A Conqueror’s Haki clash itself didn’t surprise him.
The real question was—what kind of Conqueror’s Haki clash could travel all the way from Mary Geoise, cross entire seas, and envelop heaven and earth itself?!!!
Ryokugyu could only answer helplessly:
"About that... the response from the Elders is..."
"Hm?"
"No comment."
