After retiring from the Navy, I became a doting husband.

It's imbued with Armament Haki?

Seeing this, Kizaru's eyes twitched violently. The pursuit was already at close range, and now it was at such close range that he was not given any time to react.

Devil Fruit ability?

That's terrifying, that's a really troublesome ability!

Chapter 134 Holy crap

"Admiral Kizaru, let's see how you hide!"

Indeed, the petals that Martin controlled were extremely fast and were coated with a layer of Armament Haki.

Essentially, it is extremely difficult for Armament Haki to leave the body, but these flower petals are themselves blades, so there is no issue of Haki leaving the body.

This is also where the Senbonzakura bug lies.

Indeed, the Admiral not only transforms his body into elements, but also conceals his true form. He previously used Senbonzakura to test Kizaru's body and discovered that Kizaru concealed his true form, his body being completely elementalized.

But now he's using Armament Haki, so even if the opponent hides their true form, he can still hurt them to some extent.

"Can flower petals manipulated from a distance possess Armament Haki?"

"Never heard of it..."

Pursued by the petals, Kizaru transformed into a golden laser, pushing his speed to its limit.

He knew this couldn't go on, so he unleashed the Eight-Span Curved Jewel!

Kizaru suddenly crossed his arms.

A spherical photon appeared beside them, firing countless dazzling light projectiles at the target, instantly enveloping the sky in countless golden light projectiles.

Has Kizaru gone mad?

Such a wide-ranging attack could damage the entire island, or even destroy it.

This would not only harm the bound navy personnel, but also cause the deaths of those in the surrounding buildings and residents.

Martin took a deep breath and sent countless cherry blossom petals colliding with the golden light bullets.

On the Sabaody Archipelago, golden light and black petals collided repeatedly.

It erupted with dazzling light and explosions. Although most of the light sphere attacks were blocked, some of them still fell to the ground.

Even the trunks of the Yarchiman mangroves, which had been supporting the Sabaody Archipelago for hundreds of years, collapsed under the bombardment of the light sphere.

The golden laser and the black petals began to chase each other again, the petals cutting with boundless destructive power, leaving nothing but destruction in their wake.

"Boom!"

The deafening roar caused chaos throughout the Sabaody Archipelago, with countless people staring in astonishment at the figures chasing after golden lasers and black petals amidst the smoke and dust!

"Is this the power of a general?"

"That man is actually fighting Kizaru to a standstill, who exactly is he?"

At this moment, many people were dumbfounded. The destructive power and exaggerated combat strength were simply indescribable.

Momousagi stared in utter shock at everything before her.

She originally thought Martin was just a pure swordsman, but she didn't expect him to possess a special Devil Fruit power, which could even allow him to fight Kizaru to a standstill.

"He...he probably possesses the strength of a general!"

Momousagi realized just how strong Martin was.

She just couldn't understand how Martin, a swordsman without the power of a Devil Fruit, could unleash abilities similar to those of a Devil Fruit, and even fight to a draw with an admiral.

That's absolutely incredible.

"This guy can use Armament Haki from a distance; that's a really troublesome ability."

Kizaru, frantically dodging the black petals, looked utterly panicked: "Damn it, I can't keep going like this. At this speed, I'll just be worn down by that guy. I'll just attack his main body!"

Then, Kizaru charged towards Martin, who smiled broadly and asked, "Am I the target?"

Just as Kizaru rushed in front of Martin, seeing that he remained unmoved, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked Martin: "Light Speed ​​Kick!"

"Just what I was waiting for!"

At that moment, Martin casually announced, "Bankai, God Slayer Spear!"

Then, a huge black sword beam appeared...

"what!"

Upon seeing this, Kizaru's pupils contracted, and his eyes showed shock as he stared at the sword light.

Its extreme sharpness made even Kizaru sense the danger of death.

At this point, he didn't even care how Martin left, or what methods he used to execute that move.

He tried to retreat, but his path was blocked by flower petals.

Now all he wanted to do was figure out how to avoid fighting off the rapidly slicing petals, since he had experienced the power of the petals before.

"There's no other way but to tough it out!"

The next moment, Kizaru suddenly unleashed a light-speed kick, and at the same time, countless golden rays of light erupted from his body.

The black sword light collided with the light-speed kick, unleashing a burst of golden light.

The collision of petals and golden light produced countless sounds.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar erupted as endless sparks were vaporized by the intense heat, and a massive shockwave began to spread, causing the enormous tree trunk to fall to the ground.

The impact spread for several kilometers, creating a giant crater hundreds of meters in diameter and a huge chasm, even though the collision between the two objects had dissipated a significant amount of force.

Otherwise, the entire Sabaody Archipelago would likely be affected.

The violent explosion caused onlookers in the distance to evacuate in terror, fleeing as far away as possible.

Even Brigadier General Momousagi couldn't help but step back to avoid the shockwave from the explosion.

She looked shocked. Just now, she saw everything around Martin being instantly sliced ​​apart with great impact and cutting force, and at an extremely fast speed.

Now, looking at the ground, there is not only a deep trench, but even the huge tree trunk has been cut off.

Upon closer inspection, Momousagi's expression revealed a newfound understanding: the entire island had been instantly cleaved in two.

"Was that swordsmanship? Where in the world is there such a swordsmanship?"

Momousagi opened her red lips wide, unable to close them for a long time.

On one side of the giant pit, Kizaru, whose clothes were slightly disheveled, stared at the charred pit with murderous intent in his eyes.

He was slumped in the giant pit, with a huge hole in his chest and his body split in two. There were traces of blood on the wound, and he looked disheveled. His clothes were covered in mud. As his upper and lower body were filled with golden laser light, his body began to heal.

However, Kizaru still had bloody wounds on his chest from the slash, clearly indicating that his body had been injured and he had suffered severe damage.

He couldn't help but complain, "I clearly dodged it, so how did I still get injured... I haven't been this disheveled in a long time, cough cough..."

As the smoke cleared, Martin appeared, wielding his divine spear with a cold expression. Looking at the unharmed Kizaru, he said helplessly, "As expected, an admiral isn't so easy to kill. These methods still can't do anything to him..."

"Unless that move is used!"

Martin is planning to get serious again.

Blue blue blue...

The Den Den Mushi (snail phone) rang.

Kizaru took out a small Den Den Mushi from his pocket and answered, "Yes, I understand, okay..."

He then looked at Martin: "Someone wants to talk to you."

As he spoke, he tossed the Den Den Mushi to Martin.

Martin took the Den Den Mushi, listened to it, and shouted, "Tell me the location, or these two Celestial Dragons will die here."

"Warring States, you mustn't go back on your word, or you know the consequences."

After saying that, Martin tossed the Den Den Mushi to Kizaru.

After taking the Den Den Mushi, Kizaru looked at Martin with considerable apprehension before answering the Den Den Mushi again.

"Marshal Sengoku... This guy is terrifying! Why didn't you tell me he was so powerful?"

"I'm injured now. Next time something like this happens, you should ask Sakazuki. I'm not coming."

Kizaru shouted at the Den Den Mushi in a tearful voice.

What the hell are you guys doing?

This guy is so fierce, I almost lost my life.

Perhaps only Akainu Sakazuki could fight him to a draw!

Chapter 135 Momousagi Submits, Monet Betrays

Inside the Fleet Admiral's office, Zephyr, who had arrived upon hearing the news, looked at Sengoku in front of him and asked loudly, "Sengoku, tell me honestly, how's Martin doing?"

Sengoku frowned, his expression filled with lingering worry: "I'm sorry, Zephyr, this matter is more serious than I thought. The Five Elders did not inform me, and Spandam arbitrarily mobilized CP0."

"What? Sengoku, are you going back on your word?"

"It must be that the Five Elders tacitly approved this operation. Are these people willing to sacrifice even a few little girls for the sake of so-called history?"

Zephyr roared in fury: "Martin is such a talented genius, and you didn't even try to stop him? It's shameful!"

He was the one who strongly recommended Martin to come to the Navy to discuss the matter of rejoining the Navy, but now he has caused all this trouble. He, the one who introduced him, had given a guarantee at the time.

Now that this has happened, he can hardly escape blame.

With that, Zefa rushed out of the Marshal's office, needless to say, he was going to find the Five Elders to settle the matter.

"Don't be impulsive, Zephyr. The Five Elders won't see you."
