Holy Land Mary Geoise,
Blaize's figure appeared outside the gates of Mary Geoise, his presence like a bright flame in the darkness.
As if expecting his arrival, the Five Elders, Cipher Pol, World Government agents, and a few armored figures—the remaining God Knights—stood at the entrance, blocking his path.
Blaize and the Five Elder Saints locked gazes, there was tension and silence in the air, like the calm before the storm. Blaize's expression remained indifferent, while the Five Elders' faces contorted with rage, their eyes blazing with the intent to kill.
"We should have killed you when we had the chance," Saint Nusjuro spat.
"Indeed. But, you had your chance and you missed it," Blaize responded casually. "Now, it's my time. Are you prepared?"
An overwhelming momentum surged from Blaize, his Haoshoku Haki exploding outward in streaks of dark purple lightning that crackled in all directions. The sky above darkened with ominous clouds as if welcoming the world's end.
The sheer force of Blaize's haki was unlike anything the Five Elders had ever encountered. Even with their immense strength, they were affected by the Haki pressure.
Some of the weaker Cipher Pol agents were knocked unconscious instantly, collapsing to the ground.
'What a strong Conqueror's Haki!' Everyone thought, struggling to withstand the overwhelming force.
"Don't fall into his momentum. Strike with all you've got! He's nothing but another man," Saint Marcus Mars said, dispelling the overwhelming presence of Blaize with his own.
"Is that so?" Blaize's tone was full of amusement as he stood with his hands behind his back. "I'll give you all a chance. I won't move for a minute. Attack me with all you've got, because I won't show mercy after that."
Hearing his brazen statement, the Elder Saints didn't ignore it as mere arrogance. Instead, they took it seriously and coordinated their efforts with everyone present to attack. In no time, a relentless barrage of attacks rained down on Blaize.

Inside the Throne Room, Imu watched the battle unfold with cold eyes. The sheer momentum and Haki displayed by Blaize made it clear that the defeat of the Five Elders was inevitable. Yet, Imu remained unfazed. "Blaize Hunt," he murmured.
Meanwhile, high above the battlefield, Dragon, Sabo, Madara, Jax, Akira, and the Revolutionary Army watched World Government forces attack Blaize, from clouds conjured by Jax.
The sky was ablaze with flashes of Haki and Devil Fruit powers, while the center of the battlefield was a storm of clashing abilities and techniques.
Despite the chaos below, they remained unworried, fully aware of Blaize's formidable strength. In fact, some of them regard Blaize as someone who can't be defeated by mere mortals.
"Is it ready?" Sabo asked.
"Yes," Regis replied. "It has already started to record. Blaize-san seems to have concealed the Den Den Mushi with some kind of ability, making it invisible to the naked eye. It can only be felt with top-notch Observation Haki."
"Ok. Let's do our part. Everyone's it's time." Under Sabo's command, their forces invaded Mary Geoise.

Back on the battlefield, the Five Elders combined their powers in a desperate attempt to overpower Blaize. They unleashed a series of devastating attacks, each one capable of leveling mountains and destroying islands. But Blaize met them head-on, not moving an inch from his place.
The combined might of everyone's attacks triggered shockwaves that rippled through the air, shaking the very foundations of Mary Geoise.
But, none of the attacks—sword slashes or devil fruit abilities—touched him. They suspended in midair just a few centimeters away from him.
A minute passed, and Blaize remained in his position, his hands still behind his back. Forget about touching his skin, not a single attack wobbled his clothes.
Seeing this, everyone on the World Government side retreated with a look of shock and surprise.
"Damn. What kind of ability is this? It doesn't look like a devil fruit ability," Saint Warcury cursed, as he even seastone failed to break the invisible barrier.
"I think it's some kind of space technique," Saint Saturn, who had experienced it before, expressed his thoughts. "Our attacks aren't being stopped; they're being slowed down infinitely, preventing them from reaching him."
"Correct. But you guys lost your opportunity; now, it's my turn!" Blaize smiled and took a step forward.
"Everyone, be careful!" Saint Topman Warcury warned, his voice tense. The other Elder Saints also went on high alert, their eyes locked onto Blaize, ready for his next move.

At that moment, the world was thrown into turmoil as a sudden live broadcast began playing on major islands around the world, excluding the uninhabited ones. The scene of the battle at Mary Geoise played before the eyes of countless people.
The live broadcast caught people off guard, but the content playing on it left everyone stunned.
"What is the broadcast showing? Is it some kind of conflict between pirates and marines?"
"N-no...it's Holy Land Mary Geoise. Someone is attacking Holy Land Mary Geoise and broadcasting it live."
"It can't be! Who would dare attack the hold land of Celestial Dragons?"
"F*ck...it's Marine Fleet Admiral Blaize, the strongest man in the world. What is he doing there?"
"It seems he's the one attacking Mary Geoise." Some people speculated since the conflict between them isn't a secret, after all.
"It's huge. Something huge is happening!" The live broadcast attracted the attention of everyone.
Amazon Lily,
"It has started," Hancock said, her eyes fixed on Blaize's figure standing with his hands behind his back, the familiar landscape of Mary Geoise in the background of the live broadcast.

Moby Dick, Whitebeard Pirates' Ship
On the deck of the Moby Dick, the Whitebeard Pirates watched the sudden broadcast with wide eyes. Marco, Ace, Jozu, Vista, and the other commanders couldn't believe what they were seeing.
"What is he doing?" Ace stared at the screen.
"Oyaji...," Marco called out to Whitebeard, who was seated in his throne-like chair and watching the broadcast while enjoying wine.
Whitebeard's laughter roared across the deck. "Gurararara! The world is about to be turned upside down. Marco, it's time to fulfill our promise."

On an island belonging to the Red-Haired Pirates, Shanks and his crew watched the broadcast with serious expressions. The normally jovial crew was silent, understanding the gravity of the ongoing battle.
"He really attacked Mary Geoise?" Benn Beckman mused, exhaling a cloud of smoke.
"Looks like it," Shanks said with a chuckle. "Hahaha, it's time for us to make our move!"
--
On one of the islands belonging to the Big Mom Pirates, Big Mom's children watched the broadcast with interest. As for Big Mom, she hasn't woken up from her coma.
"What's this? An attack on Mary Geoise?" Perospero said, his candy-themed cane clutched tightly. "This man is insane."
Similar things happened in Onigashima, the Beast Pirates' Stronghold. Kaido watched everything, fully drunk.
--
The kings of various kingdoms around the world were taken aback by the broadcast. Reactions ranged from excitement and shock to fear and uncertainty.
"This is unprecedented," murmured King Cobra of Alabasta. "What will become of the world if they lose?"
Conversations like these rippled across the world, as people from every corner reacted to the live broadcast with shock, curiosity, and speculations about the impending changes that it would bring.
