Seeing the entire Marineford suddenly darken,
everyone present couldn't help but look up at the sky.
At first, it shifted from white to black,
as thick, dark clouds gradually enveloped all of Marineford.
Everyone was stunned and exchanged puzzled looks.
"Look at the sky."
"What's going on?"
"The sky was clear just a moment ago. Why did it suddenly darken?"
"Such thick, dark clouds… the weather changed way too fast, didn't it?"
Many people looked up at the sky, full of doubt,
but no one noticed the real problem—until a Marine Vice Admiral spoke up.
"Hey! Open your eyes and look carefully!
It's not just getting dark—"
He lowered his voice and continued, "It's a harbinger of a natural disaster!!"
At his words, everyone around was stunned.
As if in response, terrifying bolts of lightning flashed through the boiling dark clouds.
Blue light shimmered, and thunder roared.
"Boom!!"
"Boom rumble!!!"
At that moment, everyone finally realized something was very wrong.
"The clouds… are boiling?!"
"This… is the gathering of a natural disaster?!"
Pupils constricted sharply.
A strong sense of unease flooded everyone's hearts.
On the execution stand, Sengoku stared at the sky with a solemn expression.
"Did his ability really trigger a natural disaster?!"
At this point, Garp couldn't hold back any longer.
His eyes fixed on Kronos, who was slowly descending, his entire body shrouded in black mist.
Garp frowned and strode forward.
On the Moby Dick, Whitebeard looked at the sky, then at Kronos enveloped in black mist.
He couldn't help but chuckle.
"Old la la la…
This kid isn't ordinary!"
At this moment, stepping down the stairs formed by the space boundary wall, Kronos walked slowly.
With a faint smile, he said,
"Make a big move to show your sincerity."
With that, Kronos took a step forward.
"Boom!!!"
Instantly, the black mist around Kronos boiled and rippled, spreading through the air.
Above, countless lightning bolts flashed through the dense dark clouds.
Kronos spread his hands, fully unleashing his Devil Fruit ability.
"Chaos Falls!"
"Om!!!"
"Boom!!!"
A tremendous humming sound echoed.
A dim gray light descended from the boiling dark clouds.
In the next second, a powerful force rushed downward.
"Boom!!!"
Under the gray light, the Marine headquarters building, split in half by Artoria, collapsed.
"Boom rumble!!!"
On the battlefield, countless weak pirates lay unconscious on the ground.
When the gray light shone down, Rao—powerful as Garp—couldn't help but bend over slightly,
waiting a moment for his body to adapt before standing upright.
But unlike Garp, Sengoku on the execution stand suddenly felt his body grow light, as if about to float!
And then Sengoku's entire body lifted off the ground.
Staring at the sudden scene, Sengoku was shocked.
"What is this?!"
Sengoku wasn't alone.
On the battlefield, many others began floating uncontrollably.
"What's happening?!"
"Why am I floating?!"
"Flying?!"
"My body feels lighter?!"
Those who floated were still somewhat surprised—some even excited at first—
but that excitement quickly turned to fear.
Infinite fear.
"Ugh!!!"
Painful screams echoed.
Everyone's eyes were drawn upward.
They saw a pirate floating in midair, shrouded in black mist.
His weapon began breaking apart inch by inch, his clothes turning to ashes little by little.
Even his flesh and blood disintegrated under the encroaching black mist!
"Help me!!"
"What is this black fog?!"
"What?!"
The pirate screamed in horror, struggling to brush the black mist off his body,
but it was useless—the mist wrapped around him tightly.
This wasn't an isolated case.
On the ground, many marines and pirates were also enveloped in black mist, their bodies disintegrating.
Some weren't surrounded by mist, but their faces turned purple and veins bulged all over their bodies.
They suddenly spat out a mouthful of dark red, viscous blood and collapsed on the spot.
"Pfft!!"
"Thump!!"
Looking at their companions and enemies—whether in the sky, on the ground, or nearby—
people were dying one after another.
Everyone's pupils shrank sharply; their bodies trembled uncontrollably as they screamed.
"Ugh!!!!"
"What is this?! Get it off me!!!"
"Run for your lives!"
Boundless fear engulfed everyone's hearts,
and tears of terror filled their eyes.
At that moment, violent unrest erupted across Marineford.
"Boom rumble!!!"
The ground shattered, terrifying cracks spreading everywhere.
Then the earth split open.
"Boom!!!"
Huge chunks of ground suddenly rose, carrying several people on board.
Soon after, the second, third, and fourth chunks rose rapidly!
All over the battlefield, the ground was lifting.
Those on the rising chunks crawled on, shouting in horror.
"The ground's flying!!"
"Jump down!"
"Escape!!"
But before they could react, the giant chunks suddenly shattered, breaking into stones one after another.
Many people fell screaming from the sky due to the sudden fragmentation.
"Ugh!!!"
"Boom!!"
"Doom!!"
Watching the gravel and people float away in the air,
Sengoku widened his eyes, his pupils shaking violently like during an earthquake.
"The whole of Marineford is starting to fall apart!"
"What on earth did this guy do?!"
Shock and disbelief filled Sengoku's eyes as he stared at Kronos.
It was at this moment that the dense thunder flashing in the clouds finally could no longer be contained.
