The floor was ripped apart, vines surged out, and a passage was opened.
Ten demons flew out from it.
Green Bull, in the form of a towering tree, dispelled his form with a weakened aura, returning to his human shape.
To aid the ten demons in descending to this world, he had absorbed the life force and energy of thousands of people.
And he had finally succeeded in releasing the ten demons.
With the appearance of these ten individuals, Sengoku and Garp were forced to abandon their attack on Green Bull.
The battle fell into a brief silence due to the arrival of the demons, and simultaneously, both factions separated and regrouped.
Behind Sengoku and Garp were Marines like Momousagi and Borsalino, those willing to follow Sengoku and Garp, and Marines who had not yet been killed by Green Bull.
Li Chungang and Saitama, along with Kariho and Touzoku, arrived beside Benedict.
Borsalino had intended to come to Benedict's side, but recalling Benedict's previous warning, he had to return to his unit.
They all stared in stunned horror at the void, at the demons in the sky.
Like the Fire Demon, these ten demons, upon emerging, immediately ascended to the heavens.
Freedom, freedom not felt for a long time.
And so, they strove to unleash their power.
"Ten demons, truly terrifying power."
"Marshal, I should be able to handle two."
"Won't kill them, though."
Saitama looked at the demons, pondered seriously, and said.
Benedict glanced back at Saitama and said, "One is enough."
"I'm afraid you'll be beaten to death."
Saitama rubbed his bald head and said, "I haven't fully unleashed my power yet."
"Should be alright."
Li Chungang cast a casual glance at Saitama and said, "Handling one is no problem, handling two, you could give it a try."
Touzoku and Kariho, watching Saitama and Li Chungang's retreating backs, were somewhat speechless.
They knew how strong they were.
With both of them working together, let alone killing a demon, it would be good enough if they weren't killed.
"There are still six left?"
Benedict was also speechless, looking at the roaring demons in the sky and asked.
"Marshal, you haven't gone all out yet, have you?"
"The remaining six are for you, should be no problem, right?"
Saitama turned his head to look at Benedict and said.
"I thank you for that..." Benedict said, word by word.
"You're welcome, I've always trusted the Marshal," Saitama replied earnestly.
Benedict's lips twitched.
He felt a bit injured internally.
"Bai Qi, have all warships prepare for retreat and maximum defense."
Each of the ten demons possessed SS-class strength.
On the side of the Xuanwu Navy, those capable of contending with SS-class demons were Benedict, Saitama, Li Chungang, as well as Kenshiro and Tengu Seifuu.
Gintoki Sakata had decent strength and had also taken a regular awakening potion, but his combat power had not yet been fully developed.
However, if he were to truly fight an SS-class demon, he could still manage, though the probability of losing was high.
"Do we need to team up?"
"I, plus Borsalino and Kuma, can hold back one demon."
Dragon, with Kuma, flew into the battlefield and arrived beside Benedict, saying.
Dragon possessed the Goro Goro no Mi and his strength was indeed considerable.
The three of them working together to hold back a demon was not an issue.
After Dragon's appearance, Borsalino hesitated, then flew to Dragon's side.
Borsalino's departure caused Sengoku and Garp and the others to show some displeasure.
However, thinking of the deal with Benedict, Sengoku and Garp fell silent again.
Never mind.
They were all on the same side now.
What was the point.
"This old man and Sengoku should be able to hold one each."
Garp approached Benedict and said in a deep voice.
Benedict nodded, then curiously inquired, "Aren't you afraid of dying?"
Garp's lips twitched, and he said, "We can only try our best to hold them back, so we'll still need you to make a move."
"You two, Dragon one, and on my side..." Benedict said, then looked at Li Chungang and Saitama, "one each."
"I'll fight two," Saitama said earnestly.
"They might not necessarily fight you," Benedict said with a cold splash of water.
"Then I'll force them to fight," Saitama said, and he had already flown out.
Seeing Saitama make the first move, Benedict and the others were speechless.
So eager?
Those were demons, not some third-rate brawlers.
Bang!
Saitama's upward speed was very fast, and his downward speed was also very fast.
He got close to a demon, and before he could even make a move, he was hit in the head by a punch. He was sent hurtling to the ground at an extremely high speed, the entire Marineford feeling the tremor.
"Sorry, flew too fast, missed the chance."
Saitama flew out of the crater, rubbed his bald head, which shone brightly, and said to Benedict with a slight embarrassment, completely unharmed.
"This time there won't be a problem."
With that, Saitama flew up again.
Seeing Saitama's eagerness, Benedict and the others were speechless once more.
Sengoku and the others, however, were mostly silenced by awe.
How was this person more Kaido than Kaido? Being hit down from such a height and appearing completely fine.
"Seeing that bald guy so enthusiastic, I should also get some good exercise." Li Chungang hung his wine gourd on his waist, took a deep breath, and charged into the sky with his sword.
Accompanying Li Chungang into the sky were various weapons that responded to his call.
Benedict looked at Li Chungang's serious expression and nodded. It was good that this one was more reliable; he went straight for the big moves.
"What about you?" Benedict then looked at Sengoku, Garp, and the others and asked.
"Can't go up," Garp said after a moment of silence.
On the ground, no matter who the opponent was, they could confront them head-on.
But with them flying in the sky, they were truly helpless.
"Aren't you going to lure them down?" Benedict looked at Borsalino and asked curiously.
Borsalino subconsciously took two steps back, then looked at the demons in the sky and said, "Forget it, they are too fierce."
"I'm afraid if I go up, I won't be able to come back."
At this moment, in the void, Saitama was already fighting two demons.
Li Chungang had also engaged one and was trying to provoke another.
The scene was exceptionally spectacular.
The remaining six demons had no intention of interfering with their fight.
At the same time, they turned their gaze towards the Xuanwu fleet and Marine Headquarters in Marineford.
This was because a large number of combatants were gathered here, and it contained considerable life force and energy.
"Let them leave first, how about it?" Sengoku said, looking at Vice Admiral Tsuru and the other Marine warriors.
Benedict took a look, there were still nearly ten thousand people, and said, "That's fine, they can't be of use in such a high-level battle anyway."
Sengoku didn't say much and immediately organized personnel to leave, while also preventing Green Bull and the others from launching sneak attacks.
Green Bull and the others wanted to attack, but their consumption was too great, and they didn't dare to act rashly.
Most importantly, the demons had descended, and with their terrifying power, Green Bull was confident that it would not be difficult to take down the Xuanwu Navy.
Therefore, as Sengoku organized personnel to leave, Green Bull and Kaijin also organized their people to withdraw.
