One Piece: Surrounded at Marineford? Just kidding!

Princess Shuri.

Four words.

Like a rusty key, it was inserted into a lock that had been sealed for hundreds of years.

The air in the entire future seemed to have stopped.

The wind has died down.

The rain stopped.

The dark energy in Im's palm was still raging, and it was about to crush Chen Ye, along with his soul, in the next second.

But it stopped moving.

It stopped there strangely.

This body, called "Junzi," is a vessel carefully chosen by Im, who has controlled it for over a hundred years.

But now, it's shaking.

Violent shaking.

This is not fear, nor is it exhaustion.

It is the bone marrow that is resonating, it is the memory of every cell that is echoing.

The soul trembled.

Im's Rinnegan, which looked at everyone like an ant, suddenly contracted.

My own container has gone out of control.

She was proud of her control.

Those dark energies severed their connection with her mind.

Like a docile hunting dog that suddenly turns around and bites its owner's throat.

"What's going on?!"

Im's voice changed; the overlapping majesty was gone, replaced by panic and shrillness.

She wanted to control the body's fingers.

I want to grip the sword tightly again.

He wanted to pierce through this damned Chen Ye in front of him.

But his fingers were as hard as iron.

This body is resisting her.

"No!"

"That's impossible!"

"I erased her consciousness over a hundred years ago!"

"It's just an empty shell! A container!"

Im roared wildly in the mental world, shaking the space with a buzzing sound.

She activated her divine power.

The body remained still.

next second.

A scene unfolded that sent chills down the spines of all the powerful figures present.

Roger, Rocks, and Luffy and Whitebeard fighting again.

Everyone.

An astonishing change occurred in those cold, ethereal eyes of reincarnation.

His right eye was still the crimson Rinnegan, filled with savagery and murderous intent.

But in his left eye, the divine radiance is fading.

The cloudy pupils became clear and gentle.

Finally, the clarity and sorrow unique to humankind were restored.

Those were Princess Shuri's eyes.

A single tear.

It slid down that perfect yet cold face.

This body is crying.

It was the original owner's soul that heard its true name.

It is a ray of light that transcends centuries of silence and darkness.

The soul may be weak, but it is tenacious.

"Go back! You wretched soul!!"

Im's will stirred up a monstrous wave in her spiritual sea; she intended to use her divine power to suppress that newly awakened consciousness once more.

"This body is mine now!"

"It is your honor to offer your body to God!!"

"Continue to sleep!!!"

Im's hysterical roar, and black spiritual tentacles coiled towards that glimmer of soul light.

But the soul named Shuli, the spirit that had been imprisoned, enslaved, and used as a tool for over a hundred years, unleashed astonishing power.

She did not attack Im.

She was powerless to attack this god.

She used the last of her soul's strength, desperately and resolutely, to hold back Im's consciousness.

Like a drowning person clinging to a demon trying to get ashore at the last moment.

perish together.

This was Princess Shuri's sole purpose.

Even if it's just for a second.

Even if it can only hold off this demon for a moment.

"Damn it... Let go! You crazy woman! What do you think you're doing?!"

For the first time, there was genuine fear in Im's voice.

Because she saw that Chen Ye in front of her had moved.

Chen Ye remained indifferent, his deep eyes showing no surprise whatsoever.

Everything was part of his plan.

He looked at that face, half contorted in pain and half weeping, and laughed—a cold laugh.

"That's your weakness, Im."

Chen Ye's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly pierced through the clamor of the battlefield.

"What is stolen is never truly yours."

"No matter how many times you use divine power to cleanse her soul, no matter how long you cover it up with the years, this body never truly belonged to you, and it will always betray you at the crucial moment."

The words fell.

Chen Ye moved.

This time, there was no testing, no teasing.

Only the purest form of killing.

The divine sword of light and darkness in his hand changed at that moment.

The abyss of darkness in his left hand and the golden flames of the sun in his right were compressed, collapsed, and merged wildly in his palm.

With a single sword cry, the world changed color.

The Light and Dark Divine Sword, originally the size of a normal person, instantly grew to a huge size.

ten meters.

Twenty meters.

Forty meters!

A giant lightsaber, forty meters long and interwoven with black and gold, lay horizontally in the sky.

The space around the sword shattered like fragile glass, revealing a pitch-black void.

This sword represents chaos, and the power to shatter all old order.

Im watched helplessly as the massive sword, powerful enough to destroy the world, hung overhead, his eyes filled with intense fear.

She wanted to hide.

She wanted to use her spatial abilities to teleport.

She wanted to summon the "Wall of God" for defense.

However, Princess Shuri's soul had locked every joint of this body, blocking every path of divine power.

This moment of stiffness is fatal.

"No...don't..."

Im let out a desperate cry; for the first time, the high and mighty god begged a mortal.

Chen Ye showed no mercy, his eyes colder than ice.

He gripped the greatsword tightly with both hands, raising it high above his head, his muscles bulging, and his Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki were poured into it without reservation.

"Going with the flow, I'll send you on your way."

Chen Ye let out a low shout and swung his arms down sharply.

There's nothing fancy about it.

There was only one simple, unadorned vertical slash, yet it contained the ultimate power.

"Chaos Slash!!"

The black and gold sword light, like a bolt of lightning of judgment, instantly engulfed Im.

Time stretched out at this moment.

Roger stared wide-eyed from afar, his hand trembling as he held "Ace".

Rocks gaped, his sinister eyes filled with shock.

Everyone clearly saw that scene.

The forty-meter-long Chaos Greatsword sliced ​​through Im's impenetrable divine power shield without any resistance.

Like a hot knife slicing through butter.

"Pfft!"

A sickeningly loud sound of flesh being torn apart echoed through the sky.

Im's divine robe, symbolizing supreme divine authority, shattered into pieces instantly under the sword's aura.

Immediately following was a wound.

Extending from the left shoulder to the right abdomen, the depth is so great that the bone is visible, almost splitting the body of this god in two.

"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!"

A piercing scream erupted.

The voice was extremely eerie, a mixture of two people's voices.

One is Im's pain, anger, and fear.

The other is Princess Shuri's liberation, relief, and farewell.

Golden divine blood sprayed out like a torrential rain.

Every drop of blood that fell to the ground eroded a deep pit in the rock, emitting wisps of blue smoke.

The enormous impact force was completely unleashed.

Im's suspended body, like a kite with a broken string, was blasted away by this sword.

Her body transformed into a golden meteor, crashing heavily onto the earth below with a piercing whistling sound.
