"The Land of Love and Toys," Kizaru drawled, his voice laced with sarcasm. "Quite the fairytale aesthetic. I suppose only Big Mom's Whole Cake Island could rival it. However," he continued, his tone turning somber, "I can't help but hear the cries of the citizens. Tell me, how do you manage it?"

His right hand shimmered as golden particles coalesced, forming a radiant light saber. Its sharp edge and explosive aura were palpable, much like Aokiji's ice saber and Ian's Zanpakuto, a manifestation of their respective abilities.

"I'm sure I'll find out after I defeat you. After all, these toys didn't exist before Doflamingo usurped the throne. The island's population has been steadily declining, and if I recall correctly, the former king wasn't a tyrant."

"Some sort of Devil Fruit power, I presume? Much like Crocodile's attempt to seize Alabasta through arms dealing, Doflamingo's machinations here warrant the eradication of the Donquixote Family."

Whoosh!

In a flash, Kizaru vanished, reappearing instantly before the Donquixote executives. His light saber, Ama no Murakumo, sliced through the air, a brilliant golden arc of energy hurtling towards them.

Trebol, Pika, Monet were too slow to react. Kizaru's attack descended upon them before they could even attempt to evade. In a desperate attempt to defend themselves, they combined their powers.

Boom! Even their combined efforts were futile against an Admiral's might. Monet's Snow-Snow Fruit barrier shattered, Pica's massive stone golem was cleaved in two, and Trebol's sticky bombs were bisected mid-air.

Shink! The golden energy wave continued its relentless advance, slicing through the three executives, leaving deep gashes across their bodies. Their eyes widened in terror and despair as they collapsed, blood splattering across the ground.

"So this is the power of an Admiral..." That was their final thought as darkness consumed them.

Even the palace roof was partially destroyed. Kizaru's power was evident, a stark contrast to his seemingly sluggish performance against the Supernovas and Luffy.

"Die, Kizaru!" A shrill voice echoed from above. Pica's masked face materialized in the sky, his body rapidly growing in size.

Within seconds, he towered over the battlefield, a colossal giant nearly a hundred meters tall, his fist the size of a building.

He brought his massive fist down, like a meteor crashing towards the earth.

Hum!

A blinding golden light converged at Kizaru's fingertips, then erupted in a brilliant beam, aimed directly at Pica's chest.

Whoosh! The golden laser pierced through the giant's body, triggering a massive explosion that obliterated half of Pica's torso.

"Impressive speed. But can you dodge this?" Kizaru smirked, observing Pica's desperate attempt to evade his attack. He had utilized his Observation Haki to pinpoint Pica's location.

Yet, the giant had managed to escape, albeit narrowly.

"However, I am a Marine Admiral. I can't allow you to run amok. It would be a disgrace to my reputation. Besides, a delightful afternoon tea awaits me. So..."

As he finished speaking, Kizaru transformed into a beam of light, soaring into the sky. He raised his hands, a golden aura swirling around him.

Hum! A blinding light, like a miniature sun, materialized above Dressrosa. Then, countless golden beams of light rained down upon the island, like a Sacred tempest.
