One Piece: Surrounded at Marineford? Just kidding!

Chapter 187: Enjoy my power!

Disdain.

Naked, undisguised, and utterly disdainful.

Who stands on this battlefield?

The future Pirate King, Gol D. Roger.

Edward Newgate, the strongest man in the world in the future.

Monkey D. Garp, a future naval hero.

The current ruler of the seas, Rocks D. Gibbek.

And there's Golden Lion, Kaido, Charlotte Linlin...

The most dazzling, insane, and lawless monsters of this era are almost all here.

But now, this man in the white mask is mocking them with a laugh.

"You bastard..."

Shiki the Golden Lion's brows furrowed into a tight knot, his golden hair standing on end in anger. Just as he was about to open his mouth, an invisible aura blocked his throat.

Chen Ye pushed away the shocked Rocks in front of him. The movement was light, but the force was irresistible.

Rocks staggered half a step, staring in astonishment at the back of this mysterious "brother".

All eyes, whether surprised, suspicious, or angry, were on him.

Because at this moment he suddenly couldn't understand this brother he had just met!

Then Chen Ye calmly uttered three more words.

"That's you."

A simple sentence!

What utter arrogance!

What confidence!

"Kid, you..."

The white-bearded man frowned, about to say something, but found himself unable to utter a single word.

Because Chen Ye has already made a move.

He didn't turn around, nor did he look back at the group of monsters that represented an era.

He walked alone toward Im, the world's king, who was enveloped in the sacred body of Satan in the distance.

His steps were slow, almost like he was taking a stroll.

step.

His right foot landed.

Buzz!

Centered on his landing point, countless complex, mysterious, and holy golden patterns appeared without warning on the scorched and broken earth beneath his feet!

Golden light seeped from the patterns, transforming the cracked, dark earth into a sacred realm.

Everyone present had their pupils constrict violently!

What is this?!

It wasn't Haki, nor was it a Devil Fruit; it was a more powerful force they had never seen before!

Chen Ye didn't stop and took a second step.

boom!!!

A blinding golden flame, like a volcanic eruption, suddenly burst forth from his body!

The light was not flame, but a substance formed from the purest energy and light, which instantly enveloped his entire body. Under the light, his figure began to grow taller at a visible speed.

Two meters, three meters, four meters...

A terrifying aura, far exceeding anything seen before, began to rise rapidly!

"This...this is..."

Young Kaido's eyes widened in disbelief, gripped by a deep-seated fear.

Before they could recover from their shock, Chen Ye took his third step.

Boom!

This step was taken without a sound.

But a terrifying pressure swept out from all directions!

This oppressive aura is not like the Conqueror's Haki, which targets the will.

Rather, it is a purer, higher-dimensional suppression of "existence" itself!

"Hmm!"

Even a hundred meters away, Whitebeard, Rocks, Golden Lion, and the others were forced to take a half-step back involuntarily by this pure aura storm! The ground beneath their feet cracked inch by inch as they barely managed to deflect that irresistible force!

His eyes were filled with disbelief!

What... what kind of power is this?!

Just the sheer force of her walk was enough to intimidate them?!

Are you kidding me!

They are Rocks, Whitebeard, Roger, and Garp!

But the facts are right before their eyes, leaving no room for doubt.

Chen Ye's steps did not stop.

He was bathed in golden light and continued forward.

Golden armor, shimmering with divine light, materialized on his body out of thin air.

With each piece of armor that appeared, his aura rose a little higher, and his sacred and majestic presence became increasingly intense.

Buzz!

Behind him, a huge halo composed of pure light slowly unfolded!

Everyone present, except for Im, was completely speechless in amazement at this miraculous transformation.

They no longer felt like the overlords who looked down upon the sea.

They are mortals who look up to the gods.

The young Kaido, the man who would one day be known as the "strongest creature," looked up at Chen Ye's back and felt a profound sense of insignificance from the depths of his soul.

That feeling is like an ant looking up at a blazing star, a primal awe and trembling from the most basic level of life!

Shiki the Golden Lion opened his mouth wide, and the cigar he was holding fell to the ground without him noticing.

Charlotte Linlin's greed for souls was now completely replaced by horror.

What the hell is this monster?!

Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone on the battlefield, Chen Ye walked to a spot very close to Im and stopped.

The light dissipated.

Transformation complete.

At this moment, he was nearly five meters tall, covered in a majestic and magnificent set of golden holy armor. The armor had smooth lines and was full of power, with visible golden energy flowing on it.

Behind him, the enormous sun halo slowly rotated, emitting light and heat that distorted the surrounding space.

The entire battlefield of God Valley was illuminated by his light as if it were daytime, dispelling all the darkness brought by Im.

The only thing that remained unchanged was the simple, plain white mask on his face.

Sacred, majestic, and powerful, yet this mask adds an air of unfathomable mystery.

He just stood there quietly.

No action was taken.

But the energy that was released, the mere existence of "beings" itself, made the group of important figures behind them feel a suffocating pressure.

Whitebeard, Roger, Garp, Rocks... everyone's eyes were fixed on that golden, godlike figure.

They seem to have really underestimated Chen Ye!

Because at this moment, Chen Ye was emitting energy that completely exceeded their understanding of the scope of the word "powerful."

Just then, Chen Ye's calm voice came from ahead.

He didn't turn around.

It was as if the group of sea overlords behind him, capable of overturning the world, were not worth his looking back.

"You all just stay there and watch."

Enjoy my power!

His tone was flat, yet carried a commanding air.

The stage ahead belongs to me.

At this moment, the bustling battlefield, the fierce fighting, the legendary alliances, the fateful duels... all of it seemed to be just a backdrop for Chen Ye.

At the center of the entire world stage, only two figures remained.

One of them was a golden sun god, radiating boundless light.

The other path is that of the world's king who devours everything.

The first duel between Chenye and Im has officially begun!
