The Whitebeard Pirates in the distance were stunned.
They couldn't understand at all—how had Gojo Satoru managed to do all this?
The strength of those division commanders was supposed to be extraordinary… truly powerful!
Yet before they could even get close to Gojo, something completely inexplicable happened to them.
"Could it be… that guy's a Devil Fruit user?"
Some pirates muttered to themselves in confusion.
"No wonder his bounty ranks in the top five of the Kamui Pirates. His strength is truly terrifying!"
Just after one middle-aged pirate said this, a more horrifying thought struck him. Shuddering, he whispered,
"How many members in the Kamui Pirates are as strong as Gojo Satoru?"
At that moment—
Gojo's gaze swept over the terrified pirates. He chuckled softly and said,
"Next… it's your turn."
Those words sent the surrounding pirates into a complete panic.
Who would be his next target?
Just two people—Senju Hashirama and Gojo Satoru—had already thrown the entirety of Hive Island into chaos. Every few seconds, more Whitebeard Pirates were falling.
This made the crews from every faction hate the Kamui Pirates all the more—but also fear them from the depths of their hearts.
The Kamui Pirates weren't even fighting with their full strength. They had only sent two men, and yet they had crushed the Whitebeard Pirates to the brink of collapse.
If this was what happened with only two…
What would it be like to face the full force of the Kamui Pirates?
How could the difference be so overwhelming?
They were all "Emperor-level" crews, yet the gap was like heaven and earth.
In the center of Hive Island, Whitebeard stood, his expression dark and brooding. His eyes locked on Senju Hashirama, Gojo Satoru, and Uchiha Madara.
In his heart, he wanted nothing more than to raise his great blade and cut off the heads of all three of them.
But for now… he could not.
It wasn't that he lacked the strength.
Rather—until Kronos made his move, Whitebeard absolutely could not act.
This guy Kronos… just how many trump cards like this do you have?
On the surface, Whitebeard appeared calm.
But inside, he had already grown pessimistic about the battlefield's outcome.
Meanwhile, aboard the Angel of Redemption, Pain felt it was time to act. He turned to Kronos and said,
"Captain, let me take the next move. With my ability, I can definitely bring down that old thief Whitebeard for you!"
Albedo—impatient as ever and eager to prove her worth—stepped forward as well.
"My lord, please allow me, Albedo, to join the battle. I promise I'll give you a glorious fight!"
Several other crew members also spoke up, equally eager to join the fray.
But Kronos shook his head.
"It's not the time to move… not yet."
A wave of disappointment swept through the crew.
They couldn't understand why Kronos was holding them back for so long.
What was the point of this?
As if reading their thoughts, Kronos smiled faintly.
"If we unleashed our full strength… we could wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates completely."
