The pirates sat and forgot, and they really believed the nine truths and one lie.

We can no longer allow Im to unilaterally slaughter the warriors of the Great Hammer Chapter.

Ordinary ancient giants, with their numerical advantage and fearless fighting style, could drag the four elders into a quagmire of chaotic battle.

But Im is completely different. The power level and fighting style of that being in the shadows have surpassed the scope that ordinary giant warriors can understand and deal with.

Even if all the warriors of the Great Hammer Legion charged forward without regard for casualties, they probably wouldn't even be able to reach the monster before being turned into headless corpses by that eerie, remote annihilation.

The tactics must be changed; the strongest must face the strongest!

Harald's crimson gaze shifted from the distant shadows to the tiny white figure floating before him. Luffy's small frame was now burning with a fighting spirit no less than that of any giant.

"Kid, the elder and I will go ahead for you. Follow us!"

Yoruru gripped the massive battle axe tightly with both hands. He could clearly feel that the body created by the Founding Titan was not the old, decrepit body he had in life.

Although his face was still old and his beard was still snow-white, beneath that skin surged a vibrant, youthful power reactivated by the power of the Founding Titan.

Returning through Lord Ymir's passage, being able to set foot on this land once more, and having the opportunity to fight for the progenitor and for my mother, is itself an immeasurable blessing.

Despite his advanced age, he's determined to give it his all today.

He raised his head slightly, his cloudy yet sharp gaze seeming to pierce through time, and murmured, "I wonder how that guy, Aruru, is doing now. I hope he dies a little later; I don't want to see him in that passageway ahead of time..."

Aruru, his lifelong friend and partner, another highly respected giant elder.

The two worked together and protected Erubaf for countless years. Now, the burden of humanity probably rests entirely on Aruru's shoulders.

Both Princes Hajrudin and Loki are not yet fully mature, and it would be no easy task for either of them to take over the land of giants at this moment.

Thinking about it, it really must have been tough on that old guy, but there was nothing that could be done about it.

"Okay, I'll follow later," Luffy said loudly, retracting his fist from the clash with the giant, his little face filled with unprecedented seriousness.

In his simple and pure dictionary of life, there was never the word "coward." Even the seemingly incredibly strong Im would be defeated with his fists.

The last trace of gentleness on Harald's face vanished completely, replaced by an intensely concentrated fighting spirit. He gripped the heavy greatsword in one hand, his body leaning slightly forward.

The next instant, he exerted force with both feet, and his massive body, like a cannonball, leaped into the air, landing above the heads of the Hammer Legion warriors who were engaged in fierce combat.

Almost simultaneously, Yorulu let out a low, aged growl and leaped up in perfect unison with His Majesty the King.

The figures of the two giants, one in front of the other, paused briefly in the night sky illuminated by moonlight and the flames of war.

Two completely different, yet equally vast and powerful auras surged wildly from their bodies, like a torrent bursting its banks, relentlessly compressing into the weapons in their hands.

Harald was surrounded by a deep red light, while Yoruru was surrounded by a dark blue light. The two different colored but equally refined domineering auras reached a certain critical point in the air.

"Now!" Harald roared.

"Drink!" Yorulu roared.

The two giants, as if by telepathy, simultaneously swung their weapons, imbued with the power of their lives, fiercely towards Im, who was shrouded in the shadows in the distance.

A devastating shockwave composed of crimson Haki cleaved out from Harald's greatsword, while a thick shockwave composed of dark blue Haki cleaved out from between Yoruru's battle axes.

Two terrifying shockwaves with different properties, upon detaching from the weapon, were drawn together by some invisible force, rapidly approaching and entwining each other.

Red and blue, king and sage—two completely different yet perfectly complementary forces of giants—miraculously merged together at this moment.

"A hegemonic state..."

Harald and Yoruru's roars merged into one, echoing through the sky.

Rumble, rumble—! ! !

Finally, the red and blue shockwaves completely merged, transforming into a destructive tornado with a diameter exceeding several hundred meters, featuring alternating red and blue spirals that seemed to pierce through the heavens and earth.

With overwhelming and terrifying force, it crashed down upon Im.

If struck head-on by this supreme hegemon, there would likely be no living creatures left along the path stretching for tens of kilometers.

The combined attacks of the Titans are no joke when they hit you.

Using his flying technique, Luffy soared higher than the two giants. He stared wide-eyed in shock at the earth-shattering red and blue spiral shockwave below, a familiar look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The Giant King and the Giant Old Man are so powerful!

Such a terrifying move, he actually used it so casually?!

The terrifying shockwave from the Overlord was incredibly fast; it reached Im in less than a minute, almost touching his face.

The other four Elders, who were surrounded and locked in fierce combat by the Great Hammer Group, all turned around at this moment to look at this shocking scene.

Their eyes betrayed their surprise and a hint of worry: Had something happened to Lord Im?

Faced with the ultimate combined attack of the giants, powerful enough to destroy the island, Im's eyes, hidden in the shadows and gleaming with eerie circular patterns, showed no emotion whatsoever.

It simply raised a hand, a hand shrouded in thick shadows, its exact outline obscured.

With one hand, he met the red and blue spiral shockwave of the Overlord.

A deafening roar instantly resounded throughout the entire battlefield, even drowning out all the sounds of fighting.

The red and blue light emanating from the Overlord Kingdom illuminated most of Satan Saint's body, along with a large area around him.

In the light, Satan Saint's distorted, lifeless face was clearly revealed.

Only those eyes, with their circular patterns, remained coldly surveying everything.

The terrifying impact caused the shadows around Im to throb wildly, but that was all.

The raised hand stood firmly against the very front of the hegemonic kingdom. The destructive energy of the red and blue spirals surged and tore at it wildly, but the shadows around the hand could not budge it an inch, nor could they advance any further.

It was like a devastating tsunami crashing into the unchanging barriers of the world.

"boom--!!!"

The terrifying Conqueror's Haki, dominated by pure black, erupted once again, centered on Im.

This terrifying aura of dominance not only directly neutralized and crushed the last shockwaves of the Hegemon Kingdom, but also swept wildly in all directions with a destructive force.

In an instant, the warriors of the Great Hammer Legion, who were engaged in fierce battle with the Five Elders, were struck in the soul as if by an invisible hammer, letting out painful groans.

Everything went black, and one by one they fell straight down, losing consciousness.

When Conqueror's Haki is this strong, even those with Armament Haki would be knocked unconscious by its absolute pressure that reaches the depths of their souls.

The ancient monster, who had lived for hundreds of years, had accumulated qi within his body that was as deep and unfathomable as a bottomless abyss.

Harald and Yoru were the first to be hit by this terrifying Conqueror's Haki.

The two lost their balance instantly and fell downwards like kites with broken strings.

Yorulu rolled his eyes back, a small amount of steam escaped from his mouth, and he completely fainted.

Although he was created by the Founding Titan and possessed immense power, he still couldn't withstand the Conqueror's Haki storm, which specialized in attacking the mind and will, at this level.

The only thing that can counter Conqueror's Haki is Conqueror's Haki.

"Elder!" Harald gritted his teeth and roared, forcefully reaching out a large hand during his fall to catch the unconscious Yoruru as he plummeted to the ground.

This prevented the venerable elder from falling directly from the towering skeleton of the Founding Titan and being smashed to pieces.

He himself landed heavily on the skeleton, his body shaking violently for a few moments before he managed to steady himself.

Unfortunately, Elder Yoruru, lacking Conqueror's Haki, was unable to help in a battle of this scale.

Suddenly, an uncontrollable thought popped into his mind: Loki, the child born to Estelle, who also possessed terrifying Conqueror's Haki.

If Loki were here, he might really be of great help.
