A deafening 'boom' resounded followed by an explosion. The tremendous amount of force in the attack twisted the space itself that led to huge cracks in the air.

The explosion slammed right into Speed's face, pushing him downwards onto the ground at an incredible speed.

Unlike regular shockwaves, the impact generated a heatwave at high temperature because of Blaize's devil fruit ability and explosion.

The heatwaves melted everything in its path. And, most of them were concentrated directly below their feet as Blaize punched downward when Speed was in mid-air.

When Speed's figure crashed into the ground, it created a huge crater. As Blaize's heatwave traveled further, it melted the soil and turned the carter into a deep abyss.

It was as if the door to hell has opened. One-third of Greenhill Island is completely destroyed, if not for Kuzan's ability that froze most of the sea the blow would have sunk the entire Island.

Steam filled the area as the heatwave vaporized the ice. Meanwhile, the Marines and Pirates suddenly felt a huge tremor below their feet and before they could make sense of what's happening, a heatwave traveled past them.

It destroyed whatever vegetation left and turned the whole island into barren land. As for the living beings, they were flung directly into the air. It's not the end,

'Ahhhh!'

The wails and cries from both Marines and Pirates filled the air as the attack injured them in some way. Few unlucky ones had their entire skin scorched.

Regis and Kuina were also affected by the attack. Blaize can't be blamed for it as he can't hold back his strength at such a crucial moment.

Well, in a way, his strike helped the Marines and changed the outcome of the battle between them since Pirates lost their advantage

Blaize felt comforted by the punch, it gave him a huge relief as it's been a long time since he utilized his full strength.

Kuzan and Luke stopped their fight; overcome with awe. The landscape that had been scattered with ice shards was unrecognizable. The once beautiful Greenhill island is ruined beyond restoration.

After seeing the exchange, Kuzan's opinion of Blaize has been completely changed. 'He's not weaker than me! Such monstrous strength, it's frightening.'

Meanwhile, Luke had a look of shock. He couldn't accept the reality that someone landed a blow on Speed as he knew how strong and fast his brother is.

Still, he has full confidence in Speed. His brother isn't someone who can be defeated by a single strike. Despite his confidence, Blaize's strength somewhat worried him.

Luke even had a conception that if he's in Speed's place, he either would have been killed or lost his ability to fight facing that powerful strike head-on.

Just as he thought of helping his brother, Kuzan interrupted him from doing so. It made Luke wildly attack Kuzan who lazily evaded the strikes with precision.

Kuzan may not look like someone who possesses great strength but that's what makes him extremely dangerous. He's someone who's proficient in Rokushiki while his Haki is stronger than even Speed.

'Rumble'

A slight noise came from deep within the crater shaped by the blow. The next moment, Speed's figure came out and landed before Blaize.

Blood trickled down his face that missed the nose and mouth but had a huge dent in its place. His entire face is deformed and it's a horrible sight to behold.

Next, an unbelievable thing happened, similar to Blaize, Speed's wound healed on its own, and in no time, his face was good as new.

Blaize nearly cursed seeing this. "Fuck it...he can even super heal!'

"Not bad! I'm impressed but if you think that a single punch is enough to take me out then you're are greatly mistaken." Speed cracked his neck and uttered, looking at Blaize.

Hadn't he reacted fast and clad his body with ample Haki, the last blow would have injured him heavily or even claimed his life away.

He's not going to underestimate his opponent anymore. Speed plan to go all out. Besides, he exhausted half of his haki reserve to protect against the last attack while the Super Heal drained his physical strength greatly.

Blaize smirked and answered. "Of course I know that. But, I'm just starting!"

Speed is superior to Blaize in many ways, his Haki is slightly stronger, he's faster and more experienced than him. But, it's not like he's undefeatable he's just fast.

To defeat Speed, Blaize first had to disrupt his power balance and he just did that. Now, his opponent will show his ultimate technique and trump cards.

Meanwhile, Speed too gazed at Blaize whose Marine Coat fluttered in the air. He found Blaize is different and better than him in some areas.

First, his devil fruit ability is unusual; it's even hotter than the magma displayed by the Akainu. Secondly, his opponent's Haki reserve is extraordinary.

The atmosphere is stifling as both Blaize and Speed glared at each other as if they are going to kill each other in their next move. Everyone present within a few kilometers radius felt their terrifying presence.

Even without them doing anything sparks flew off in all directions as a rippling effect appeared in the air. Thin lightning-like energies of one golden and one red suddenly clashed in mid-air.

'Boom!' The air screeched while sparks of lightning flew off. The clouds shook and thundered, the clash provoked a shockwave that dispersed in all directions.

The clash of two supreme kings!

Foam came out of most marines' and pirates' mouths, their eyes went blank and with mouths wide open they all hit the ground with audible thuds.

Some of them didn't directly lose their consciousness but were forced to their knees. Only a few strong-willed ones stood on their feet. Speed gazed straight at Blaize in seriousness. 'A Marine using Haoshoku Haki...'
