"Bang!!"

  On the fgship of the Navy's elite fleet, G-11 Base ander and Navy Vice Admiral Chekarl was finally overpowered by "Sloth Sin" Belial, one of the "queen-level" elite Homies.

  The bck spear in Belial’s hands struck with overwhelming force, sending Chekarl flying backward. He coughed up blood as his body smmed into the ship's stern, shattering the deck beh him.

  Splinters and debris scattered in all dires.

  "Swish…"

  Just as the groaning Vice Admiral struggled to rise, ign the searing pain c through his body, a massive hand shrouded in bed queror’s Haki reached down mercilessly.

  A cold and ominous voice demanded:

  "Life or death?"

  Looking up at the t figure—wearing a shinigami's mask and exuding the aura of a messenger from hell—Chekarl's pupils dited ierror.

  "Aaaahhh—"

  With a gut-wreng scream, the soul of the distinguished Navy Vice Admiral was ruthlessly extracted from his body.

  Surveying the battlefield, Gerd grinned as she coldly evaluated the situation:

  "One Vice Admiral, two to three thousand Navy souls, and ten or so warships. Not bad at all!"

  Around her, Angel Homies worked methodically to up the aftermath of the battle. They began hauling the bodies of fallen sailors and tossing them into the o.

  Meanwhile, on the Fallen Angels’ side, their fleet drew closer to solidate the captured ships. Crew members scurried about, salvaging and towing undamaged Navy vessels.

  ...

  On another battlefield near Komugi Isnd, the Navy fleet, already at a disadvantage, had begureating upon learning of the reinforts.

  Panic spread among the sailors.

  "Pull back immediately! Avoid further losses!"

  "Damn it! What are these cursed munitions?!"

  "We’ve already lost half our ships to their bombardments!"

  Amid the chaos, distant shadows in the sky caught the sailors' attention.

  "Wait… what is that?"

  "Screeech! Screeech!"

  Two colossal a pterosaurs emerged, their terrifying size and speed indug dread in the hearts of the retreating Navy.

  Their wings created gale-force winds, sending massive waves crashing against the sea’s surfabsp;

  "Whoosh! Whoosh!"

  The wind pressure was so immehat many sailors lost their bance. Some were flung through the air like paper dolls, while others hit the deck, bleeding from sudden falls.

  "What… what’s going on?!"

  "Those beasts are heading straight for us!"

  One massive pterosaur swept down, spreading its wings to cast an enormous shadow over the sea. With its razor-sharp talons, it effortlessly grabbed a Navy warship, lifting it high into the air.

  Nearby, a Quetzalcoatlus Pterosaur mirrored the act, clutg ane warship in its cws and asding rapidly into the sky.

  "Our ship is flying! What’s happening?!"

  "Damn it, what are these creatures?!"

  "Where are they taking us?!"

  Despite the sailors’ panicked screams, the two titanic creatures tiheir climb. Within moments, they had carried their prey several kilometers above the sea.

  Then, without warning, they released their grip.

  "Nooooooo—"

  The ships plummeted toward the o.

  "The warships are falling!"

  "We’re doomed! No one survive this height!"

  Their cries of despair filled the air as the two ships smashed into the sea below.

  "BOOOOM! BOOOOM!"

  The resulting explosions and sprays of seawater echoed across the battlefield.

  As the chaos unfolded, the two enormous pterosaurs pivoted gracefully in midair, their keen eyes log onto more targets.

  "Thump, thump, thump!"

  Their massive wings ed the air as they dived again, i oroying more Navy ships.

  Witnessing the se before him, Hajrudin’s eyes lit up, and he burst into ughter:

  “So, El has already returned?”

  “Wahahaha! And he’s brought two incredibly strong allies!”

  Putting down the massive Homie onball he was about to throw, Witt also ughed heartily.

  They had already heard the news—El had recruited two giant warriors from the uer prison aowed upowo a Zoan-type flying Devil Fruits.

  Without a doubt, the two enormous pterosaurs dominating the sky had to be them.

  “Heh, so they fly, huh? A pterosaur-type users?”

  Even the colossal "Colossal Battleship" Sanjuan Wolf looked up in surprise.

  “Tch—”

  The two gigantic pterosaurs desded rapidly, creating powerful gusts of wind as they closed in.

  “Damn it, those are giant ability users!”

  On the Navy’s fgship, Vice Admiral Lomba of G-12 felt his pupils tra shobsp;

  Sweat began to bead on his forehead as he stared at the ferocious, colossal creatures swooping toward his fleet.

  “Damn pirates, don’t uimate a Navy Vice Admiral!”

  As a pterosaur hurtled toward him, Vice Admiral Lomba gritted his teeth. Refusing to sit idle, he unched himself into the air using Moonwalk, bde swinging in a wide arbsp;

  “Crest Ssh!”

  “Wooooosh!”

  The massive pterosaur swiftly twisted its body mid-air, dodging the attack with remarkable agility.

  With a powerful fp of its wings, it geed a violent gust of wind that sent Lomba tumbling through the air, uo steady himself.

  Even the rge battleship behind him began to srecariously, nearly capsizing uhe force of the wind.

  “g!!”

  Sparks flew as Lomba’s Haki-cd bde collided with the pterosaur’s razor-sharp beak, emitting a deafeniallic screech that made the sailors on the ship winbsp;

  Having gained full mastery of his A Zoan: Pteranodon Face dispyed incredible strength, speed, and reflexes. Far from the sluggishypical of giant warriors, he moved with a predator’s precision.

  “What kind of monster is this?”

  Though he barely mao block the strike, Vice Admiral Lomba’s hands trembled from the overwhelming force. His palms split open, blood seeping out as his sword nearly slipped from his grasp.

  “Wooooosh!”

  Not giving Lomba a moment to recover, the Pteranodon struck again with its metallic cws, gleaming like polished steel.

  “Shhh!”

  Lomba desperately kicked off the air, narrowly dodging the devastating swipe.

  But before he could regroup, the pterosaur’s massive wing swept toward him like a battering ram.

  Seeing no way to evade, Lomba gritted his teeth and lunged with his bde in defiance. A spray of blood erupted from the wing but did nothing to halt its momentum.

  The wing smashed into Lomba’s body with terrifying force, his face t in agony as he spat blood. The impact sent him flying like a onball, plunging into the sea with a loud spsh.

  “Screeeeech!”

  Meanwhile, oher side of the battlefield, the Quetzalcoatlus Pterosaur had already grabbed hold of a rge warship, asding rapidly into the sky.

  “Heh, Jace, you’re moving too fast!”

  Seeing his younger brother’s swift as, Gace, in his Pteranodon form, chuckled. Unwilling to be outdone, he dove toward another battleship.

  Ign the Navy’s desperate gunfire, he fearlessly braved the storm of bullets and swooped down toward the target.

  “Aaaaahhh—”

  Uhe horrified gazes of tless sailors, the massive pterosaur extes talons and seized the warship.

  With a mighty fp of his wings, Gace took to the skies, the massive ship danglih him.

  “Wooooosh!”

  The ship groaned uhe strain, its structure creaking loudly as Gace rose higher and higher, taking the vessel far from the battlefield.
