The Five Elders, of course, are not so easy to kill.

It's not just a monster that has lived for a long time; the deeper support behind it may be far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

It continuously replenishes their energy, maintains their shape, and even repairs damage.

This is God's favor, and also the manifestation of power.

That is why, even if their bodies are instantly destroyed in a terrifying explosion that could flatten an island, they can still frantically repair themselves in the flames of the explosion by relying on the continuous regenerative power.

For them, this is a brutal competition of consumption and regeneration speed, to see whether the destructive forces from the outside world can destroy them faster, or whether the support behind them can repair them faster.

Clearly, they won in that hasty explosion.

At this moment, the Five Elders are fighting against the New Era Pirate Alliance. Although this alliance is temporary and fragile, such a clash of the century is a sight to behold.

Its historical significance and impact are no less than the ongoing Marineford War!

The rooftop of the tallest building in the Sabaody Archipelago.

"Hurry, faster! Get all the family's belongings up there!"

The branch manager in the Sabaody Archipelago is urging his employees to hurry up and stop dawdling. Today, the big boss will give every employee who works five times their bonus.

Morgans has gone all out, sparing no expense to rent this still partially collapsed high-rise building as his new live-streaming base.

The branch members who remained on the island also risked their lives to carry the branch's most advanced high-precision filming equipment to the precarious rooftop using ropes, ladders, and even by climbing out of windows.

Several specially modified camera Den Den Mushi, equipped with ultra-long focal lengths and extremely high stability, were quickly set up and aimed at the enormous, suffocating skeletal giant in the sky.

The camera constantly adjusted its focus to capture every detail of the battlefield, trying to clearly depict the few tiny yet incredibly conspicuous black dots on the giant's body.

This is the last remaining asset of the Sabaody Archipelago news bureau, a part of Morgans' years of hard work. Once it is damaged or affected, it will be gone forever.

Moreover, broadcasting the battle scenes of the Five Elders live, especially their true appearance in their monstrous forms, is a huge risk in itself, as it exposes the secrets of the Celestial Dragons' highest authority to the whole world.

But Morgans didn't care.

Clear and stable high-definition video signals were forcibly accessed through a special channel on broadcast screens still in operation around the world.

"Dear viewers all over the world!"

The announcer's voice trembled slightly with excitement, "If conditions permit, please prepare your second screen immediately."

"One screen is reserved for Marineford, where the final battle is raging!"

"On the other screen, please align it with our current signal and witness the clash of the century between the Five Elders and the new generation of pirates over the Sabaody Archipelago!"

"Two unprecedented battles will simultaneously dazzle your senses. Let's witness history together."

Wealthy and powerful viewers naturally don't mind using an extra screen.

Soon, second, and even third screens were quickly set up in countless wealthy homes, pubs, and squares.

Many of these state-of-the-art playback devices were distributed through Morgans's cooperation channels with underworld bosses around the world, making them the best tools for recording history.

On the screen, the five monstrous figures of the Five Elders were presented to the world with unprecedented clarity and a sense of oppression.

The half-human, half-horse bones exuding the aura of a swordsman

Sandworms with twisted shapes, like the embodiment of the earth

The ferocious, savage, and violent Fengxi with its menacing fangs.

Itsumade, a flame burning eternally, hovers in the sky.

And the ox-demon in the center, its figure most eerie and unpredictable, shrouded in heavy shadows.

Five mythical beasts, appearing in the same scene in completely inhuman forms, create a soul-stirring sense of oppression that is nakedly conveyed through the screen, without the slightest falsehood.

On the other side of the screen, the pirates confronting these five monsters are at a significant disadvantage in terms of both size and numbers.

It's like fighting five Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit users at the same time. That's a rare blessing, one that most people can't possibly enjoy.

In Elrubaf, the land of giants, a second, slightly smaller live-streaming screen was hastily erected in the square, alongside the main screen broadcasting the battle of Marineford.

The image is somewhat blurry, but clear enough to see clearly.

Saul stared intently at the straw-hatted boy on the screen, who was constantly swinging his injured right arm and had a clear look of pain on his face.

"Straw Hat Boy, you can't die here!"

"Robin still needs you..."

Having experienced the tragedy of Ohara and seen through the darkness of the World Government, Saul's feelings for Garp's grandson were uncertain.

But Nico Robin, the little girl he risked his life to send away, carrying the hopes of the scholars, actually chose to join the Straw Hat crew and seems to have truly found a place to belong.

Based on this alone, in Saul's simple and honest logic, Luffy must be a great person who is trustworthy and reliable.

He must not fall here!

Far away in the sky, among the lighthouses.

Fizz, the little fishman, made the final adjustments. The old, cracked broadcast screen did not hesitate between the two signals and selected the image of the Sabaody Archipelago.

The battle of Marineford was significant, but what they cared about more was the boy in the straw hat.

Nicole Robin sat quietly on the edge of the bed with her legs bent.

When the five crystal-clear, malevolent monster figures appeared on the screen, her breath caught in her throat for a moment.

This was the first time she had seen the Five Elders so clearly and so directly, seeing them hidden beneath their human forms, like demons from mythology.

There was no fear, or at least not pure fear.

A deep, unforgettable emotion surged up from the deepest part of her heart like magma—hatred!

It is a hatred for the murderer who destroyed everything she had, branded on her soul and ingrained in her blood!

The images of his hometown Ohara burning amidst the gunfire, the deafening crash of the Tree of Omniscience collapsing, his last farewell to the scholars, and his time with Sauro...

And then there's Mom, Olvia, with that final, profound gaze...

Everything happened the moment I saw these five monsters; my old memories overlapped with the scene before me.

It was they, these five beings who stood at the pinnacle of world power, representing the will of God, who issued that destructive order.

They erased O'Hara, erased that history, erased the first half of her life.

Robin's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she slowly buried her face between her bent knees.

It was a gesture of self-protection, and also the last line of defense before an emotional breakdown.

Her captain, her companions, the only warmth she clung to in this cold world, were about to unleash a bloody battle against the five monsters that had destroyed everything she had.
