# Chapter 826: The Great Battle is About to Begin, All Personnel in Position
The Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle, who had been lying prone, struggled to stand up, grabbing his head with both hands.
With a *crack*, his head was twisted back into place.
He was still shaking his head, his mind buzzing slightly.
Having taken Garp's full-power punch head-on, he still hadn't fully recovered even now.
After a long while, he seemed to regain some clarity.
The Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle gasped for breath, staring at Zephyr with eyes that seemed to blaze with wrath.
An intense killing intent, a terrifying aura like that of a wild beast, erupted from within him.
Streaks of black-red lightning tore through the air, leaving cracks as they rampaged in the void.
He unleashed his wrath upon Zephyr.
It was a terrifying fact that all Three Great Generals of the "King of Monsters" Typhon possessed Conqueror's Haki.
They were originally Beast Kings, which was why Typhon valued them.
Awakening Conqueror's Haki was their inherent talent.
"Why won't you die, old fellow!"
A frantic and tyrannical aura enveloped the entire Underground Area like a raging torrent.
The Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle's body strangely shrank significantly, from twelve meters to roughly eight meters.
However, the aura emanating from him became even more terrifying.
It reached a degree that made even Zephyr feel solemn, especially considering his current poor condition.
"Asura Form!"
The reduction in size enhanced the Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle's combat power in all aspects.
More importantly, the Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle's body strangely turned deep red.
His appearance became even more terrifying, like a Shura from a sea of blood.
This was the Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle's strongest combat form.
He set his target on Zephyr, rather than Garp, who had punched him away.
Garp was being watched by Byrnndi World, so there wasn't much concern there.
On the other side, Isaac watched the impending great battle without making a move.
The battle between the Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle and Zephyr, and the battle between Garp and Byrnndi World.
He couldn't intervene in either.
The current situation still left them very passive.
Strongmen were getting injured, and if they weren't careful, they would be caught in the crossfire of these Monsters' combat.
Below the "Xuanwu", the overall space wasn't particularly large.
More importantly, the corpse of Saint Mars of the Five Elders left Isaac's heart incredibly shaken.
A Five Elder, standing at the peak of world power, just died like this?
It was truly unbelievable.
One after another, powerful combatants regained consciousness from their vegetative state.
The stimulation of the Outside World's danger, and the more direct pain, allowed them to regain control over their bodies.
Upon waking, the casualties were already quite heavy.
Not to mention those who had died, the Strongmen whose bodies were pierced by chains were hardly in a good condition.
Most importantly, they needed to evacuate from this Battlefield first; staying here was too dangerous.
Army Generals, CP0 Agents, Marine Vice Admirals, Strongmen rapidly left the Area using Moonwalk, taking with them the warriors who had not yet woken up.
In the grand Arena constructed from hundred-meter-high rock walls.
Two figures were engaged in fierce fighting.
Scorching magma erupted, and "Tyrant" Grado used his ability to turn this Battlefield into his own domain.
Against this, the "Ogre" had his own way of dealing with it.
The ground rapidly rose up, forming a small platform.
Dark Haki, a collision between Monsters!
Son of Hades, Descendant of God!
Strongmen who inherited noble bloodlines were locked in fierce fighting.
A magma fist with terrifying explosive power, like a volcanic eruption, slammed towards the "Ogre"'s face.
The most direct destructive power, scorching magma that seemed to devour everything, engulfed the "Ogre"'s body.
He was trembling violently.
Even though the "Ogre" possessed the powerful recovery power and stamina of a Mythical Zoan, he still had to directly face Grado's offense.
Grado wasn't afraid of consumption; opponents like this were his favorite to face.
Two bloody battles were enough for these young Monsters to achieve astonishing growth.
Even when facing a Holy Knight member, Grado was not afraid at all.
"Godspeed" Xia Er was intercepted in the sky by the "Griffin", and they also began an intense great battle.
The "Griffin", having entered his human-beast form, also exhibited his battle-hardened strength with no weaknesses.
He was also a Swordsman, his cold gaze like that of an eagle fixed firmly on Char.
A massive figure descended from the sky, smashing a giant crater into the ground.
It was the "Blue Dragon" and the God's Knights Commander-in-Chief, Ferrand Garling Saint.
Both were slightly battered but still managed to block Typhon's terrifying hammer blow.
Typhon stood before them, his body rapidly shrinking back to his original form.
At the same time, the Anchor Homie continuously shrank, and the chains flew back into Typhon's hand.
The Storm Hammer also returned to Typhon's preferred form.
Looking at his companion who had vanished without a trace, Garling Saint's expression was grim.
What would be the consequences of being eaten by Typhon?
Most likely, he was already dead.
"Well done, Okeanos!"
Typhon was naturally aware of what was happening below the "Xuanwu".
Although they were completely at a disadvantage in terms of Top Tier Combatants.
They had still inflicted heavy damage on the World Government in terms of high-end combat power.
Those killed or severely wounded by Okeanos, those crushed to death by the Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle.
Moreover, in a short period of time, the World Government had already sacrificed two Top Tier Combatants.
Typhon ate one, and Byrnndi World killed one.
The World Government's Five Elders, Holy Knights, CP0 Agents, Army, Marines, a full twenty Top Tier Combatants.
This lineup was incredibly luxurious.
Among them were powerful combatants sent by the Celestial Dragon Family to protect their own members, possessing the terrifying strength of quasi-admirals, or even approaching Top Tier Combatant level.
This lineup was incredibly luxurious.
What about the pirates?
The Flying Pirates, Byrnndi World, plus the Monster Legion, only had eight Top Tier Combatants in total.
Besides the Flying Pirates' Three Leaders, "Tyrant" Grado, and "Godspeed" Xia Er, there were also quite a few Strongmen approaching Top Tier Combatant level.
However, their reputation was clearly not as great as Grado's and Char's.
Many were Cadres from the Rocks Pirates who followed Shiki in the early days, or Strongmen who had grown up along the way.
Now, the World Government's side had already lost two Top Tier Combatants.
Army Generals, Zephyr, CP0 Agents, and quite a few Holy Knight members had suffered considerable damage.
Although the stress was considerable, the pirates' side was still capable of fighting.
The large number of high-end combat power within the Flying Pirates was enough to cover up many issues.
Moreover, a Monster like Typhon required more than one Top Tier Combatant to block.
Unsolvable defense, massive amounts of Haki, and bottomless stamina reserves.
As the "King of Monsters", now the universally recognized strongest creature, he had already targeted those "corpses" who had not yet woken up, seemingly waiting to be executed.
This made the World Government's side very passive, forcing multiple combatants to join forces to block Typhon.
This was war; any means necessary could be used for victory.
Seizing upon this weakness of the World Government prevented them from being able to fully utilize their numerical advantage in Top Tier Combatants.
Once this war broke out, it would not end so easily.
Even evacuation would only happen when the situation became clearer.
After all, the sudden appearance of the Five Elders and the Holy Knights had indeed caught the pirates' side off guard.
If not for the astonishing effect of the Magnetic Storm Bomb, they might have had to flee immediately.
Moreover, their arrangements were not limited to just this Battlefield.
A huge shadow enveloped the earth.
One by one, powerful combatants jumped down from the Island Ship; the Cadres of the Flying Pirates had all arrived.
The true great battle has begun!
