"AIIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Akainu shouted. Kaido's kanabo slammed into his chest, shattering his ribcage instantly. A weapon imbued with potent Conqueror's bypassed his Logia intangibility and crush his true body in an instant. Akainu was thrown through several walls.

Kizaru and Ryokogyu, along with Issho, all grovel on the ground, bloodied and beaten, unable to help. They can only watch as Kaido savages their fleet admiral with impunity. Nearby, Hibari and Helmeppo tried to fend off the attack of Ulti, but both were soon broken at her feet. The Beast Pirates were poised to march upon Maryjoa soon. New Marineford has fallen, the Marines had failed.

"WORORORORORORORORO! IS THIS THE BEST THE MARINES CAN OFFER ME?!" Kaido roars. Akainu stands up again, a foolish move as the hybrid Yonko closes the distance.

"Justice... never surrenders!" Akainu yelled.

Big mistake. Kaido sensed his weakness. He pounced. "WORORORO! THEN JUSTICE CAN DIE ON ITS FEET!"

The next blow shocked everyone at the destroyed New Marineford. Garp, Smoker and Koby, both held at bay by King and Queen, looked on in horror. Their leader collapsed. The next strike, to his skull, was the decisive one, and Sakazuki's life was over. Kaido bellowed a thunderous laughter, grabbing the fleet admiral's body and lifting it high.

"SEE WHAT JUSTICE HAS BECOME! A DEAD CORPSE LAID LOW BY ME!"

The Marines were officially over. This was the end of the navy. And all the world knew that day that nobody could challenge the power of a Yonko, for only somebody with unrivaled ambition... unmatched will to strive for strength and greatness above all else... COULD COME TO BE CALLED... EMPEROR!

And Kaido?

HE WAS THE EMPEROR OF EMPERORS. THE PINNACLE OF STRENGTH.

In Pangea Castle, Imu shuddered. "This may be the end of us..."
