"Well, we've achieved our goal. Time to go. Let's hope all we've done wasn't for nothing."
Whitebeard sighed helplessly. From the start, he never expected to be able to solve the Blood Pool catastrophe by himself.
"But what if those monsters really escape? What do we do if we run into them again?"
Ace said as he glanced at the Blood Pool—several more monsters over a kilometer tall were emerging.
Each one possessed power far above even Whitebeard's.
If they escaped now, it was only a matter of time before they encountered them again in the future.
"Don't worry. The Marines will take care of it."
But Whitebeard remained completely unfazed.
SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH!!
A sharp sonic boom pierced the sky.
It was Sengoku, having transformed into Rodan, rapidly approaching.
Then a figure leapt from Rodan's back, racing straight toward the three-headed monster—it was none other than Garp.
"AAAAAHH!!"
Garp's muscles bulged as he activated both Busoshoku Haki and Haoshoku Haki, compressing them into his fist.
At the same time, the Ox Talisman on his body flared with power.
Using Geppo, Garp leapt atop the three-headed monster and drove his fist down.
"Fist Bone!"
Normally, a punch like this wouldn't even scratch a monster of this size.
But this time, his strike was boosted several hundred times by the Ox Talisman.
With this terrifying augmentation, Garp's fist blew apart the skull of the thousand-meter-tall beast. The devastating shockwave that followed sliced clean through its body, splitting it in two and sending both halves crashing to the sides.
This horrifying strike left Ace, Marco, and all the Marines on Rodan utterly dumbfounded—their eyes and tongues nearly flew out of their heads.
"My god… is that really Grandpa's strength now?!"
Ace stared in disbelief at Garp's overwhelming feat.
He never imagined Garp could be this powerful.
"That's not his own strength. It's thanks to the talisman... not that I have the right to judge."
Whitebeard said bluntly, seeing through the truth.
"Amazing! Vice Admiral Garp is that powerful?!"
"Yeah! That monster was strong enough to lift islands!"
"No wonder he's the Navy's Hero—Vice Admiral Garp!"
The Marines cheered, spirits soaring.
When they first arrived and saw the destruction of Totto Land, they had been filled with dread.
Who would've thought the domain of a Yonko could be reduced to such ruin?
Even without engaging them directly, they could feel the monstrous aura of those creatures—it was nothing any ordinary Vice Admiral could handle.
Let alone the endless tide of monsters pouring out from the Blood Pool.
But Garp's devastating punch reignited their hope, instantly raising morale.
"All hands! Follow the Three Admirals and me! We will wipe out these monsters! We cannot let a single one escape this island!"
Sengoku gave the order and dove straight toward Totto Land.
"Hey, isn't that a bit reckless? We're severely outnumbered here,"
Aokiji pointed out.
"We have no choice. The Navy doesn't have many forces in the New World. Reinforcements will take too long. We must do what we can and give it our all!"
Sengoku replied with resolve.
"What about Whitebeard? He's weakened right now. This is our chance."
Akainu eyed Whitebeard's group flying off into the distance.
"Leave them. The threat here is more urgent."
Sengoku weighed the situation—handling the Blood Pool monsters came first.
Whitebeard's group had already flown far. There was no point in chasing them.
As Sengoku landed, all the Marines on his back jumped down and followed the Three Admirals into battle, targeting the surrounding monsters.
Meanwhile, Garp was charging toward even larger monsters, unleashing Haoshoku Haki to knock many out cold and relieve the pressure on the others.
"Ice Age!"
"Yasakani no Magatama!"
"Meteor Volcano!"
Ice, magma, and beams of light—three elemental forces burst forth in all directions, blasting into the hordes of monsters.
They were frozen solid, incinerated, or pierced mercilessly.
In the span of a single moment, over a thousand monsters were obliterated by the admirals' elemental barrage.
Seeing the Admirals dominate the battlefield, the other Vice Admirals, Rear Admirals, and lower-ranking Marines all had their morale boosted. They began launching attacks of their own.
Among them were Garp's disciples, Koby and Helmeppo.
Some Marines even transformed into monsters from Skull Island—MUTO, Kong, and the Giant Swamp Squid—each utilizing the signature abilities of those beasts to battle the towering enemies.
It was clear Sengoku had awarded them Zoan-type Devil Fruits modeled after the Skull Island monsters to bolster their combat power.
At this moment, Sengoku's own body began to transform.
In the past, his strongest form had been the Golden Buddha.
Now, after consuming two additional Zoan-type Devil Fruits, his form had evolved.
First, he stood over 60 meters tall.
Second, though he retained the Buddha's build and hairstyle, his face was now that of Godzilla—and Rodan's wings spread from his back.
It was a completely new, full beast transformation, fusing three Zoan Devil Fruits.
In this form, Sengoku opened his mouth and began charging a terrifying combination of powers: the Buddha's shockwave, Godzilla's atomic breath, and Rodan's fireball—compressed into a single devastating blast.
When fully charged, he unleashed it in a beam of golden, searing fire, looking like molten sand.
Anything it touched was incinerated—piercing through monsters and leaving their charred remains behind.
Even creatures hundreds of meters tall couldn't survive this attack!
AAAHHHH!!
Meanwhile, Garp was locked in combat with the most massive monsters—those over 800 to 1000 meters tall.
These beasts far surpassed the Yonko level.
In Dragon Ball terms, they'd be sporting power levels between 50,000 to 100,000.
In the One Piece world, only Garp—with the Ox Talisman—could stand against them!
With his iron fists, Garp crushed the skulls of giant monsters that seemed tall enough to touch the sky.
No matter how they fought back, Garp's overwhelming force would always blow them away!
In just one minute, ten colossal monsters fell beneath Garp's fists.
BOOM!
Garp landed like a meteor, bending over to catch his breath.
"Huff… huff… man, I'm beat. This old body hasn't moved like this in a while. Definitely not as spry as I used to be…"
He groaned and stretched out his lower back.
"If I could just get my hands on Whitebeard's Dog Talisman…
With my younger body, I'd be unbeatable."
As that thought crossed his mind, Garp suddenly jumped again, releasing a powerful shockwave that blasted back a group of charging monsters.
He shot straight toward a newly emerged enemy—a thousand-meter-tall steel-bodied robot.
The robot spotted Garp and opened its mechanical jaws, firing a laser beam toward him.
