"Ahh!!!"

Charlotte Owen roared furiously, desperately trying to break through Marco's relentless attack.

However, Marco was not so easily overcome; with the power of thunder, he suppressed Owen like a celestial firmament.

Boom~~~!

The terrifying force made the deck beneath Charlotte Owen's feet continue to crack and burst apart. Pieces of solid wood and steel exploded outward, sending countless wood chips flying. His entire body was relentlessly pressed down, continually forcing him into the shattered deck!

"No, no, no!"

In that moment, Charlotte Owen's scalp felt numb, his heart raced, and a chill ran down his back. He was in excruciating pain and felt an unprecedented sense of terror. "No, I won't die! I won't die!"

Boom!

The large sword in Charlotte Owen's hand shattered inch by inch, fragments scattering in all directions!

"Break it for me!"

Charlotte Owen's fists felt like boiling molten iron, and his entire body glowed red, resembling a soldering iron. He unleashed every ounce of his strength, trying to rise against Marco's suffocating power!

A series of explosive sounds echoed continuously!

The terrifying high temperature made the air boil, but Marco's blue flames contained the heat, forcing it into submission!

Blah blah!

The deck beneath Charlotte Owen's feet completely ruptured, with countless fragments rolling away. In an instant, the entire deck of the pirate ship developed numerous cracks. The destructive force sent untold pieces of the deck flying!

Whoosh!

Charlotte Owen's boiling red body cracked inch by inch, like steel being crushed by an immense force. Cracks formed as his body warped and distorted!

Marco's overwhelming force drove Charlotte Owen down from the deck into the lower quarters of the ship. It was nearly unstoppable, breaking through each level—the first, second, third—everything shattered in the blink of an eye!

Even the bottom of the ship, designed to withstand the might of powerful waves, was instantly breached, sending debris flying through the air!

As the water surged in, Charlotte Owen was forced into the sea!

Before he could even fully submerge, Charlotte Owen had become unrecognizable, his body shattered, with skin and flesh torn open, revealing gaping, white bones. He could not even fathom how many bones had been crushed and distorted!

Rumble!

Immediately afterward, countless gallons of seawater flooded into the cabin, gushing upward like a fountain as the giant pirate ship continued to sink!

Massive waves churned, the sea roared, and countless tumultuous waves crashed around!

This main ship was directly hit and consumed by the sea!

Countless pirates aboard perished, and those who had jumped from the other pirate ships met their end here as well!

Only the shattered remains of broken pirate ships bobbed on the turbulent sea, remnants of the chaos.

"The strongest ship has been sunk!"

"Lord Owen… was dragged into the sea!"

"It's over! It's all over!"

On the other five pirate ships, only a handful of weaker pirates remained; they stood aghast at the shocking scene, their minds reeling as if struck by lightning, their hearts pounding in terror.

Shock!

Total disbelief!

Not far away, on another somewhat damaged pirate ship, Belivia, who had been hiding in the battery control room, witnessed the opposite pirate ship sink… and she was left in shock!

"Marco!"

Belivia exclaimed in desperation as she saw Marco fall into the sea without re-emerging!

"What do I do?! Marco is a Devil Fruit user; he's a dry duck! He… fell into the sea too! How can this be happening?" Belivia anxiously fretted, her delicate face filled with worry. Then, a determined look crossed her features. "I'm going to save him!"

"He saved my life; I can't let him die! What's more… What's more… I don't want him to die!"

"Steer this pirate ship over here!"

In contrast to Belivia's urgency, the surviving pirates from Charlotte Owen's other five pirate ships had calmed down after the initial shock. After all, they were pirates serving under the Big Mom Pirates. Even those of average strength had weathered countless storms, and they quickly regained their composure.

"I see… Marco has also fallen into the sea and hasn't resurfaced!"

"Yes! Ha ha ha! Marco is dead too! Lord Owen must have dragged Marco down with him at the last moment! Those with abilities are dry ducks, and when they enter the sea, they will definitely drown!"

"Let's jump down and rescue Lord Owen! If we save him, we will win this battle completely! Marco… can be left to the sea!"

"Let's go down and find Lord Owen! If we encounter Marco first, we'll just kill him! In the sea, anyone with such an ability is fish bait for us!"

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Many of the weaker pirates jumped into the sea together, trying in vain to find Charlotte Owen and save him! Meanwhile, if they encountered Marco, they wouldn't hesitate to kill him!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

More and more pirates jumped into the sea, and Belivia, who was steering the pirate ship toward this side of the sea, couldn't help but clench her teeth in frustration. She was clever and quick-witted, and she suddenly realized, "Damn it! These scoundrels… How are they not afraid of death?!"

"I see Lord Owen!"

A pirate in the sea shouted with joy!

"Move, people! First, save Lord Owen aboard! We'll look for Marco afterward and slaughter him!"

In an instant, many pirates swam eagerly to this side, excitement bubbling within them!

But when this group of pirates got a clear view of Charlotte Owen, they all froze in shock!

Charlotte Owen, emerging from the sea, was covered in erosion, his flesh separated from bone…

He was,

Beyond dead—there was no mistaking it!
