"Reinforcements from Marine Headquarters…"
Shakky froze for a moment before snapping out of it.
Sabaody Archipelago, being at the gateway to the New World, was located near Marine HQ.
Now that Kizaru was in a bitter struggle, there was no doubt support would arrive—
Though which Marine would come was still uncertain.
"It's not Vice Admirals... it's Admirals. Sakazuki and Kuzan are coming."
Rayleigh, the Dark King, replied calmly.
His Kenbunshoku Haki had already covered the docks, where he spotted the stern-faced Akainu and the reluctant-looking Aokiji.
Both Admirals were heading swiftly toward the battlefield between Naruto and Kizaru.
"Then… can Uzumaki Naruto escape?"
Shakky asked, a trace of concern in her voice.
"Very unlikely," Rayleigh shook his head.
"Against all three Admirals at once—without backup—no one can win. Not even a Yonko."
Shakky felt a sinking weight in her chest.
She didn't want to see such a young boy captured.
But she also knew—
If all three Admirals acted, even the Yonko would choose to retreat.
"Well, I guess this is revenge for Hachi," Rayleigh said with a shake of his head.
"To be honest, this brat was too arrogant.
He just set foot on the Grand Line and already made enemies everywhere.
He's not going to last long..."
—
"What's wrong? What's wrong, Admiral Kizaru!?
Is that all you've got!?"
One of Naruto's shadow clones laughed loudly, watching the golden flashes in the sky.
He formed hand seals and shouted:
"Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu!" (Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet!)
A ferocious water dragon formed behind him, roaring as it slammed toward the shimmering form of Kizaru.
"A water-style ninjutsu!?"
Kizaru's face twitched as he stared at the incoming water dragon.
"This is ridiculous... controlling seawater itself? That's the one thing we Devil Fruit users fear most…"
Before he could teleport away, another blond shadow clone charged in with blue chakra flames:
"Rankyaku: Getsuga!" (Storm Kick: Crescent Slash!)
An airborne slash infused with thin layers of Armament Haki struck just as Kizaru attempted to phase away.
The impact forced him out of his elemental form.
Looking at both the water dragon and the incoming clone, he quickly retaliated:
"Yasakani no Magatama!"
Zing! Zing! Zing!
Golden photons filled the sky, exploding like heavenly rain.
The blue water dragon and Naruto's clone were both destroyed.
But before Kizaru could even catch his breath—
"Shinka: Shiranui!" (Divine Fire: Shiranui!)
Another shadow clone, cloaked in raging flames, appeared behind him, wielding two spears of fire.
"Crap!"
Kizaru cursed, forming the Ame no Murakumo (Sword of the Gathering Clouds) to block them.
He just barely deflected the spears—
Only for another clone to rush in from his left with a Chidori,
And one from the right wielding a Rasenshuriken.
Kizaru's face turned grim.
Without hesitation, he dematerialized into light and zipped away.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Explosions rang out across the battlefield.
Kizaru's battered figure reappeared far away—
His clothes torn, scorched, and shredded from multiple points.
Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!
Seven or eight dozen Naruto clones blinked onto rooftops surrounding him.
One of them smirked and said:
"No wonder you're a Marine Admiral—
Even with over a hundred clones going all out, we've only managed to scratch you."
Kizaru's lip twitched.
"That's my line!"
To him, Naruto was the real monster.
Not only could he create hundreds of clones—
But each had a different ability.
This wasn't a battle—this was a one-man Buster Call.
No, even a Buster Call wasn't this outrageous.
But Naruto slightly shook his head—he didn't quite agree.
He knew his own limits.
Without opening the Fifth Gate of Hachimon Tonkō, he wouldn't even be able to touch Kizaru.
Even now—with over a hundred clones—he still hadn't managed to seriously injure the Admiral.
"I need to find that 'Okama King'… and have them use the Horm-Horm Fruit to accelerate my physical growth…"
Naruto clenched his teeth.
Then—his original body activated another gate:
"Hachimon Tonkō—Sixth Gate, Keimon, Open!!"
A burst of ferocious green chakra ignited around him.
His previously depleted chakra surged back violently—
But so did the strain on his body.
"This is my limit…
If I open the Seventh Gate right now, I'll die."
Naruto inhaled slowly.
Pain throbbed through every fiber of his body.
He could feel the tearing strain—the body simply wasn't ready to handle this power.
But this is enough.
He gritted his teeth and focused.
Controlling all the shadow clones around him, they simultaneously raised their right hands—
Chakra condensed rapidly.
"Super Ōdama Rasengan!!!"
In Kizaru's stunned gaze, over eighty blond-haired boys raised massive spinning orbs of blue chakra—
like blazing blue suns.
Then…
Fire erupted within the blue spheres.
The blue began to turn red.
Super Ōdama: Shakunton Rasengan! (Super Giant Scorch Style Rasengan)
"I mastered the fire transformation right after eating the Mera Mera no Mi…"
Naruto grinned, then shouted:
"Eighty Super Giant Scorch Rasengan!
Come on, Kizaru—let's see you block them all!!"
The eighty Rasengan—each like a burning sun—
came crashing down from the sky.
Even Kizaru sucked in a cold breath.
His body instantly turned into light and vanished.
But just as he flashed away—
The eighty shadow clones paused…
Then re-aimed—changing trajectory mid-air.
—
"..." Aokiji.
"..." Akainu.
The two newly-arrived Admirals suddenly widened their eyes—
Watching in horror as eighty flaming suns descended upon them.
"I…" Aokiji almost cursed.
He wanted to dodge.
But behind him were hundreds of Marines.
He could only grit his teeth and raise his hands.
Akainu's face was no better.
"It's been years… and this brat's grown even more dangerous.
We have to capture him this time."
"Dai Funka!!" (Great Eruption!)
"Ice Age!!"
Fire and ice collided with the falling suns—
each element claiming half the sky.
BOOOOOOOOM!!!
