RUMBLE!!!

The moment Rowen's words fell, the countless thunderclouds in the sky above Enies Lobby instantly roiled and boiled.

Within those innumerable thunderclouds, coiling serpents of lightning writhed and roared, emitting terrifying, soul-chilling thunderclaps.

This dread wasn't mere psychological fear—it was a genuine collapse of spiritual strength from deep within.

This roaring lightning contained the full might of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

That terrorizing 'Thunder Sound'—was capable of shattering the spiritual fortitude of even Marine HQ Rear Admirals.

As this 'Thunder Sound' echoed, many of the Marine HQ soldiers and World Government troops still engaged with Vivi and the others clutched their heads, collapsing in agony—

This was entirely different from fainting under Conqueror's Haki—this was the collapse of spiritual strength under a Devil Fruit!

Before an Awakened Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, anyone without exceptionally strong Haki would have their spirit completely shattered by this Thunder Sound!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The frightening lightning writhing within the thunderclouds coalesced into countless falling thunderbolts, raining down upon Enies Lobby.

The dense lines of falling lightning, like a torrential thunderstorm, showcased the horrifying might of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to the world!

Countless buildings on Enies Lobby were instantly obliterated under this deluge of lightning!

More terrifying still—this Thunder-rain showed no signs of stopping, instead growing even more violent, as if determined to utterly erase Enies Lobby from the map!

"Mamaragan——!" Rowen roared, standing at the foremost part of the Ark Maxim's deck, looking down at Enies Lobby, now transformed into a hellscape of lightning, his arms spread wide, radiating boundless power.

If he said he'd wipe Enies Lobby from the map—he meant WIPE IT CLEAN!

A Buster Call's power merely destroyed all structures, life, and vegetation at the target location; the island itself remained on the map.

In the Ohara incident, after the Buster Call ended, the precious history books thrown into the water for protection were salvaged by the surviving Saul.

But under Rowen's Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability—Enies Lobby would be completely obliterated!

<><><><><><><><>

"Th-This is—the true power of the Fifth Emperor!"

Zambai and the others stared, cold sweat beading on their foreheads, their eyes wide with utter horror as they watched Enies Lobby instantly transform into a world of Lightning Hell.

The layout of Enies Lobby was divided into the Forefront Island, the Main Island, the Tower of Justice, and the Bridge of Hesitation.

Beyond the Bridge of Hesitation lay the Gates of Justice.

At this moment—the Tower of Justice, under the tyrannical power of this Lightning Hell, had completely vanished.

The Forefront Island also began to completely disintegrate.

Countless island fragments, destroyed by the merciless lightning, fell into the churning sea below, disappearing without a trace. Only the largest Main Island could still exist for a short while within this lightning hell.

But Zambai and the others had no doubt, under this terrifying onslaught, Enies Lobby being completely wiped from the map was only a matter of time!

Before this man's power—what was CP9?? What ten thousand troops on Enies Lobby?? All were as fragile as dust.

Wiped away by this man as easily as erasing a pencil drawing with an eraser!

Zambai and the others swallowed hard.

"You can retreat first. What comes next—is all-out war. The opponents—are ten Marine HQ warships, Marine Admiral Akainu, and five Marine HQ Vice Admirals. Over thirty Rear Admirals or higher, and over two hundred Captains or higher,"

Rowen stated calmly, his back to Franky and the Franky Family, looking down at Enies Lobby, which was gradually being annihilated under the 'Mamaragan'.

Such military might could obliterate a country in the blink of an eye. Calling it 'all-out war' was no exaggeration.

<><><><><><><><>

"Hey, hey! Little Bro Rowen! Are you looking down on me??"

Franky yelled, his head bowed, then raised his hands. Zambai placed three bottles of cola, prepared long ago, into Franky's hands.

Clink!

Franky shoved the three cola bottles into the energy storage compartment in his chest.

Fsss!

Cola transformed into energy, steam hissing from Franky's head.

"SUUUUUPER!!!" Franky slammed his forearms together in his classic pose, roaring!

Rowen watched Franky with interest.

This guy truly was talented, able to modify himself to use cola as an energy source.

"I'M A PERVERT! And the word 'Retreat' isn't in a pervert's dictionary, Little Bro Rowen!" Franky declared with his signature rogueish grin.

"Besides. You guys saved me. If I run away now—I wouldn't deserve to call myself a pervert for the rest of my life! So what if it's a Buster Call? This life of mine—was saved by you, Little Bro Rowen! Let me bet my life alongside yours!" Franky roared.

"BIG BRO!" The Franky Family cried, tears of emotion streaming down their faces.

"Hmph." Rowen smiled.

"Shishishi! Knew I wasn't wrong about you! Decided! You're our crew's shipwright!" Luffy grinned. Franky suited Luffy's tastes perfectly.

Luffy didn't choose comrades based solely on strength or ability; cherishing comrades, loyalty to comrades—that was the primary condition.

Franky fell silent for a moment upon hearing Luffy's words. The Straw Hats were all loyal—it greatly appealed to him.

If he joined this pirate crew—perhaps he really could achieve his dream... But he wasn't alone; he had many underlings...

"WE'LL FIGHT TOO! BIG BRO ROWEN!" The Franky Family roared, shouldering their weapons.

Rowen had saved Franky—to them, that was an immense debt of gratitude... When they came to save Franky, they never expected to leave alive.

So what if it's a Buster Call?? So what if it's a Marine HQ Admiral??

Their side had the man with the 3 BILLION Beri bounty—hailed as the World's Most Dangerous Man.

Rowen had even defeated another Marine HQ Admiral. Plus them—their forces exceeded fifty.

'The advantage is OURS!'

<><><><><><><><>

"I understand your goodwill. But you should all wait in the alternate dimension until the battle is over," Rowen stated, genuinely appreciating the Franky Family's loyalty.

Franky himself was fine; after refueling with cola, he could at least trade blows with a Marine HQ Rear Admiral, a decent asset on the battlefield.

But the rest of the Franky Family's strength—in the upcoming battle—would be no different from sending lambs to the slaughter.

"That's right! My dear little brothers. You've already proven your loyalty by coming to save me. Now leave the rest to this Pervert! SUUUUPER!" Franky roared, deeply moved.

"O-Okay," The Franky Family exchanged glances. The initial rush of adrenaline having passed, they also realized their strength wouldn't be much help and might even be a hindrance.

Click! Rowen waved his right hand, and an Air Door opened.

"BIG BRO! BE CAREFUL! BIG BRO ROWEN AND EVERYONE TOO!" Zambai and the others yelled, then quickly entered the alternate dimension created by the Door-Door Fruit.

FWOOSH!

A miniature sandstorm formed beside Rowen, Vivi's slender figure slowly materializing.

"Rowen," Vivi murmured, looking at him. Though she had expended considerable stamina, her expression was resolute.

"Let's go. This is an all-out war!" Rowen opened another Air Door.

Luffy, Franky, Chopper, Nami, Vivi, and Robin followed Rowen through the Air Door—Arriving on the Main Island of Enies Lobby, directly facing the massive Gates of Justice.

<><><><><><><><>

"Rowen! They were Giants deceived by the World Government! Giant warriors from Dorry and Brogy's old crew—Kashii and Oimo!" Usopp yelled, riding on the shoulder of one of the giants, rushing towards them.

During the earlier chaos, these two giants appeared.

Usopp, keenly observing their dialogue, realized their identity. With his uncanny imitation of Dorry and Brogy, he quickly gained Kashii and Oimo's trust.

"After this battle is over, leave Enies Lobby with us," Rowen said, smiling at the two giants.

Tap! Tap!

Creak!

"Gulp!"
