When Luffy clearly uttered the name Im, viewers around the world who witnessed this scene on the broadcast screen finally understood completely.

The indescribable presence that enveloped Saint Satan's body was fundamentally different from the appearance of Saint Satan himself!

This also explains why the other four venerable elders showed such almost obsequious respect to their colleague, Saint Satan.

Even as the bright moonlight selflessly shines upon Saint Satan, he still gives off an unfathomable and unfathomable feeling.

People could only barely make out the distorted outline belonging to Satan Saint; as for the true face beneath the authority deep in the shadows, no one could see it.

Those who have likely seen Im's true form have long since vanished into the annals of history.

The heavy shadow that had trembled violently at Luffy's words gradually regained a suppressed stability after the intense fluctuations.

Satan did not deny it, nor did he need to deny it.

At this level, the strong don't need to prove anything to the weak; their very existence is the answer.

A strange voice, entirely different from that of Satan Saint, and filled with multiple overlapping sounds, resonated deep within Satan Saint's body: "Who...who are you?!"

"Joy Boy is dead!"

The voice was resolute, carrying an undeniable certainty: "This is something I am absolutely certain of. He is indeed dead. Do you think I would believe you are him?!"

Im no longer needed to doubt its identity. It was clear that it had just been shaken by Luffy's familiar tone and demeanor, but its long-standing memory and sense of control over everything allowed it to quickly regain its composure.

Joy Boy's death is an established fact etched into historical reality for it.

If Joy Boy had not died, he would have appeared and confronted it long ago, and Nika's legend and power would not have wandered the world and remained hidden for so long.

White-haired Luffy did not immediately answer the question.

He simply raised his right hand slowly and gently removed the straw hat from his head, a gift from his red-haired friend who had accompanied him on his voyages until now.

He pressed his straw hat lightly against his chest, as if making some kind of silent promise.

His hair, now pure silver-white in the moonlight, was no longer straight, but rather like a quietly burning, constantly flickering white flame, dancing freely in the high-altitude gale.

Luffy's voice remained calm, "Imu, you are not an omniscient and omnipotent god."

His gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of shadows. "God does not shed blood, but you do."

These words, like a precise and sharp dagger, plunged deeply into the truth that Im least wanted to be touched.

The dark shape that had just stabilized trembled violently once more! If it flew, it had clearly struck a crucial vital point.

"If we push history back a few hundred years, you were just an ordinary person who stole a part of God's authority."

"Even the Celestial Dragons' so-called race of gods is just a concept you created to fool the world, and it's not a new concept at all; it's only a thousand years old."

Luffy raised his eyes and looked at Im again, "If the God Clan really possessed the so-called divine blood, then there wouldn't be so many rebels in this world."

Satan Saint's eyes, which were hidden in the shadows and were already like black holes, suddenly widened at this moment.

The extent to which his eyes were wide open completely exceeded his physiological limits, as if he wanted to tear his entire eye socket apart. Im was desperately trying to steady himself, his emotions about to spiral out of control again.

The chaotic, heavy sound, after a period of deathly silence, finally rang out again.

This time, only the most crucial question remained, fueled by unprecedented rage: "Who—are you?!"

An unprecedented, pure black Conqueror's Haki erupted from Im!

This domineering aura was no longer an invisible pressure, but had condensed into a visible, raging black thunder and storm.

Its power was so terrifying that it instantly created a destructive airflow in the sky equivalent to a hurricane of level 10 or higher in nature.

The four Elders, standing atop the towering ribs on either side, swayed violently back and forth amidst the raging black lightning and hurricane swirling with overwhelming power, their faces revealing undisguised pain for the first time.

They had to fight with all their might to barely keep their balance in the wrath of their gods and avoid being blown away.

Even they couldn't bear it, which shows how furious Im was at this moment. How long has it been since the Celestial Dragon God was this angry?

The Five Elders had thought that Lord Im had lost his human emotions and would no longer experience any emotional fluctuations, but today, a few words from the Straw Hat Pirates had somewhat broken his defenses.

Meanwhile, Kidd, Capone Becky, and Hawkins, who were weaker than them, were in an even more precarious situation.

"This is utterly reckless!" Kidd only had time to let out a roar of shock and anger before the earth-shattering Conqueror's Haki attack was already upon him.

None of the three could stand firm in the face of such an absolute difference in strength.

Hawkins and Capone Becky, almost the instant they came into contact with Conqueror's Haki, their eyes rolled back, their consciousness blurred, and their bodies were blown away by the terrifying hurricane.

Only Kid, with his extremely strong willpower, mainly because he also possessed Conqueror's Haki, gritted his teeth and stabilized his collapsing mind at the first moment, preventing him from immediately fainting.

But his body was also violently thrown through the air like a kite with a broken string, almost falling directly off the Founding Titan's steep spine.

Kidd let out a beastly roar, his one arm frantically reaching out to his side. In this destructive hurricane of level 10 or higher, he exerted all his strength, his hand digging into the gap of the giant's spine.

Manipulating the magnetic force, he deformed the disc beneath Capone Bege's feet, tightly encasing his two allies in sheet metal, and then severed the magnetic connection.

As long as Kidd didn't fall off the Founding Titan, the three of them swayed violently in the gale, like three fallen leaves in a raging storm.

Kidd's one arm was bulging with veins, almost as if it were about to break, but he held on tightly, pressing himself and his two temporarily unconscious allies against the cold, hard spine of the giant.

Otherwise, the three of them would have already fallen from that height of a thousand meters, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.

At the heart of this devastating storm of Conqueror's Haki, the white figure stood silently.

Under the moonlight, the white cloud of flames behind him swirled even more violently, yet stubbornly remained unbroken.

This scene clearly showed who was superior; only Luffy in that state was qualified to stand in front of Im.
