[Gear Third : Giant's Thunder Ax!!!]
[In that instant, Luffy bellowed wildly!]
[As he activated Gear Third, boundless thunder and lightning enveloped the colossal soles of his feet!]
[Beneath the canopy of darkened clouds, his massive sole gleamed like the moon!]
[The pressure was palpable!]
[It seemed as though this foot could shatter the very sky!]
[This staggering weight bore down upon all who beheld it!]
[Whether it was Shiki, Nami, Robin, Zoro, Sanji, or Usopp and their comrades]
[All stood transfixed by the sight]
Naturally, Luffy's maneuver not only astounded those present but also stunned viewers worldwide tuning into the live broadcast.
And at that moment, they was ablaze with excitement!!!
Giant's Thunder Ax... what a fearsome technique?
The sheer force sends shivers down countless spines even through the screen!
Who could have foreseen that Luffy would master such a move with Usopp's assistance?
Presumably, it draws inspiration from his clash with Enel on the Sky Island, right?
As we all know, Luffy is the Rubber Man who consumed the Gomu Gomu no Mi.
Despite his profound fear of high temperatures and sharp blades.
But it's completely immune to lightning, no matter how many volts it's exposed to, it can't cause any damage.
That's also why he was able to defeat Enel, who consumed the Thunder Fruit.
However, Luffy's immunity to lightning doesn't extend to everyone else.
You know, thunder and lightning can be seen as the most terrifying elements in nature.
The extent of the damage they can cause is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Even a legendary pirate like Shiki would never be able to withstand the endless power of thunder and lightning.
Moreover, Luffy is now using this Thunder Axe move, which not only demonstrates the terrifying destructive power of thunder and lightning intertwining but also marks his activation of the third gear mode, maximizing his power!
With the combination of immense power and thunder and lightning, countless spectators couldn't fathom the terror this kick would unleash!
Even now, many prominent figures at sea couldn't help but be astonished at the sight!
Clearly, Luffy's sudden move surpassed their expectations!
As everyone observed this spectacle, only endless astonishment filled their hearts.
Navy Headquarters, Garp's office!
"Luffy, this guy..."
"He keeps surprising me, time and time again!"
Garp gazed at the sky screen, his expression shifting from worry to amazement.
Though the screen didn't currently show Shiki being defeated by this move.
As one of the world's top powerhouses, how could Garp not perceive the sheer terror of Luffy's move? It would be incredibly challenging for him to withstand it; he might even be defeated by it!
It's safe to say that his grandson's ability to employ this move is not only remarkable for its sheer power but also for seizing the right moment and opportunity!
What an extraordinary stroke of luck!
At the same time, a miracle was unfolding!
What Sengoku was pondering mirrored Kizaru's thoughts, yet he couldn't muster the will to express his emotions. His mind was engulfed in immense shock. His visage remained blank, as though he had witnessed the inconceivable.
Deep within, he had already resigned to Luffy's defeat. Despite being the grandson of his esteemed comrade, Sengoku, a man who had once vanquished Shiki and sealed him within the advanced layer, knew the terror Shiki could unleash. Yet now, the prospect of his defeat loomed ominously. The implications were staggering!
Behind them, Kizaru, Aokiji, and Akainu shared in their disbelief and astonishment. Amidst the chaos, the live broadcast resumed.
Watching Luffy execute such a formidable and imposing technique left everyone, including Shiki himself, in utter shock.
Shiki stood motionless, momentarily forgetting to even evade, as Luffy advanced toward him.
Suddenly, thunder erupted, its destructive force shaking the very heavens.
Just as the colossal foot descended, Shiki snapped out of his stupor. Yet, it was too late for escape.
Wide-eyed and filled with despair, he could only watch as the attack struck mercilessly.
Boom!!!
A deafening roar echoed as the earth trembled beneath them.
The devastating power radiated from Luffy's foot, showcasing the full extent of his might.
The floating island, controlled by Shiki's Devil Fruit, was torn asunder by the force of the blow.
Once again, the immense destructive power left all witnesses dumbfounded.
In the aftermath, countless crew members of the Flying Pirates were hurled away by the sheer force unleashed.
[Many individuals, including the Straw Hat Pirates, struggled to hold their ground, lest they be swept away.]
[Notably, it was Shiki at the epicenter of Luffy's colossal kick, bearing the brunt of its force!]
[In an instant, he was dealt a devastating blow!]
[Now he lay deeply embedded in the earth, a faint glimmer of consciousness lingering.]
[His eyes reflected despair and defiance.]
[Once a legendary pirate, even Sengoku and Garp had to exert considerable effort to subdue him.]
[Yet, here he was, after years of meticulous planning, poised to unveil his aspirations and ambitions.]
[Proclaiming his resurgence to the entire Navy Headquarters and the world at large...]
[Only to falter at the final moment of execution, thwarted unexpectedly!]
[Defeated by this straw-hatted youth he never deigned to notice or acknowledge!]
[He refuse to yield, he truly refuse!]
[Shiki still sought to rise, but under the weight of grievous injury, his body betrayed him.]
[Ultimately, consciousness slipped away entirely.]
[He collapsed to the ground, and with his unconsciousness, his Devil Fruit ability promptly ceased.]
[The massive floating island began its gradual descent towards the sea.]
[Below, numerous navy personnel awaited its arrival.]
[Though Luffy and his comrades emerged from the skirmish, their spirits undiminished, fleeing was a straightforward task.]
[However, the Flying Pirates, along with the incapacitated and now deceased Shiki, faced an inevitable fate.]
