In the heart of a fiery domain, surrounded by an inferno of terrifying flames, Ace stood before the world. Cloaked in a blazing garment of pure fire, he exuded a presence that struck awe and fear into all who witnessed him.

Under the horrified gaze of Akainu, the Admiral of the Navy, who wielded the fearsome power of the Magma Fruit, Ace wore a faint smile on his handsome face. His expression, calm yet intense, only added to the surreal beauty of the scene as dark red, sun-like cracks formed along his features, giving the impression of a living flame.

Then, in a voice that resonated across the battlefield and beyond, he spoke the words that would shake the world to its core:

"The temperature of my flames is ten times hotter than yours."

The entire world watched in stunned silence.

In the Holy Land of Mariejois, the Five Elders—figures of immense authority—stood frozen in disbelief, their faces pale with shock.

"Ten times hotter?" one of them muttered. "The flames of the Mera-Mera Fruit can reach temperatures ten times hotter than magma? This… this defies all natural laws!"

Saint Warcury, eyes wide with fear, continued, "The power Ace is wielding... it surpasses the limitations of any Logia-type Devil Fruit. It's not a natural flame anymore… it's something else entirely."

Another elder, Saint Mars, grimly added, "Logia powers have always been bound by the limits of nature itself. Akainu's magma can only reach about 1,400 degrees Celsius—no matter how strong he becomes, that is the upper threshold. The same goes for the Mera-Mera Fruit's flames, capped at around 1,300 degrees. But this...His flames exceed 10,000 degrees! This is not the work of nature!"

The Five Elders exchanged uneasy glances. Never in their long history had they witnessed anything like this. Devil Fruits were bound by the laws of nature—until now.

"It's unthinkable," said Saint Ju Peter in a low voice. "Could there be a secret to Devil Fruits that we've never uncovered?"

Akainu's own stunned reaction was all the confirmation they needed. The usually indomitable admiral was silent, his body, now entirely molten, radiating disbelief. For Akainu, a man who had always prided himself on his raw, destructive power, the realization that Ace's flames far surpassed his own magma was a bitter truth to swallow.

Rayleigh, observing the battle from afar, was just as shaken. "Ten times hotter? That kind of heat isn't possible for a Logia fruit. Even the legendary Sun God Nika, with all his powers, couldn't do something like this."

Ace, now the embodiment of a blazing sun, stood as more than a mere mortal. His appearance, wreathed in the brilliant fire of the "Remnant Sun Prison Garb," looked less like a human using a Devil Fruit power and more like the sun itself incarnate. Even Rayleigh, who had traveled to the ends of the world and seen countless wonders, was filled with awe.

"This isn't just the power of the Mera-Mera Fruit," Rayleigh whispered, his voice filled with reverence. "Ace has become something else entirely."

Even the battle-hardened warrior, Issho, known for his stoic demeanor, was visibly shocked. "My Observation Haki... it can't penetrate that fire. It's as if the flames themselves are burning it away."

Nami, sensitive to the changes in the atmosphere, looked up in alarm. "Uncle Rayleigh, Uncle Issho, wrap your whole body with Armament Haki, absolutely do not expose any gaps. The entire Sabaody Archipelago... the air itself is being scorched! If this continues, the whole island will be consumed by the heat! "

"What!? The people!"

Issho's expression suddenly changed.

"Don't worry," she reassured, turning to Issho and Rayleigh. "Ace will contain the flames. He's protecting the people, just as he's always done."

Ace, the sun-like figure at the heart of the blazing inferno, had transcended the limits of both his Devil Fruit and nature itself. He now stood as a force that could no longer be measured by the rules of the world—a true embodiment of the sun.

"In the short term, it won't affect the public. Since Ace began his journey at sea, he's saved countless lives. Our goal is to create a world where 'everyone has enough to eat, and everyone can celebrate together.' The Sabaody Archipelago will not be destroyed."

Nami knew that this blind uncle, Issho, was a righteous man dedicated to protecting people, so she quickly added, "Of course, aside from this place. But it shouldn't affect normal people, right?"

Issho's expression softened slightly after hearing her reassurance.

GR-1 to GR-29 of the Sabaody Archipelago were primarily illegal zones, home to human auction houses and slave trade centers. It was also a playground for the Celestial Dragons. The destruction of such places would actually be a relief for the common folk.

Issho's face grew pensive.

In their brief exchange, he learned what had happened to the girl named Nami, and he also discovered the history of Cocosia Village. The fact that pirates and the Marines had colluded to brutally oppress those villages filled him with deep anger.

Ace had been the one to save Cocoyasi Village and the neighboring areas from their tyrannical rule.

"Can you tell me more about Mr. Ace? Perhaps the incident in Alabasta?" Issho asked gently.

"Of course, Uncle Issho. But let Vivi tell you about what happened in Alabasta," Nami replied with a knowing smile. 

Being quick-witted, Nami understood Rayleigh's intentions as they fought alongside Ace. He wanted to recruit this honorable and powerful man to join their Entei Pirate Crew. If they could gain such a steadfast and strong captain, it would be a tremendous boon for Ace.

Immediately, Nami called over Vivi.

"It's the former princess of Alabasta, Vivi, right?" Issho asked, a smile forming on his face.

Although Issho was blind, his mastery of Observation Haki allowed him to sense the nature of others. And all the members of Ace's Entei Pirates exuded nothing but kindness in his perception.

"Yes, Uncle Issho," Vivi responded, ready to begin. "Let me start from the beginning."

With their bodies wrapped in Haki to guard against the intense heat that surrounded them, Issho and Rayleigh listened as Vivi recounted the events in Alabasta.

Nearby, Kizaru stood silently, twitching as he endured the searing heat. Defeated and captured, he was unable to summon the Haki needed to shield himself.

"Ten… ten times…?!" Akainu stammered, eyes wide in disbelief as he stared at Ace, whose face was calm, with a faint smile as he raised his finger.

Even though Akainu's entire body had become molten lava, he could still feel the immense heat radiating from Ace's flames, a heat far beyond anything he had ever encountered.

That number — ten times — hit Akainu like a hammer blow to the heart. For all his strength, Haki, and martial skill, the power of the Magma Fruit was the core of his might. It had always allowed him to stand toe-to-toe with even the Four Emperors. It was the very thing that secured his place atop the Navy's hierarchy.

At first, Akainu had trained with a sword and mastered the art of Kendo. But after consuming the Magma Fruit, he devoted himself entirely to honing its powers, which had since become his greatest pride.

Now, however, Ace—calm and composed—was telling him that his flames were ten times hotter than Akainu's magma.

This was no joke. This was an utter rejection of everything Akainu had built himself upon.

"WHAT A JOKE, PORTGAS D. ACE!!!" Akainu roared, his blood-red eyes seething with rage.

Ace was trying to invalidate his entire existence!

In an instant, Akainu's entire body turned into surging Magma as he charged toward Ace, who stood still in his flaming prison of the sun. But as Akainu drew closer, the heat became unbearable, even for him. His molten body trembled under the extreme temperature.

This was the difference between them—a terrifying difference, tenfold.

"You're struggling to get close? Let me help you," Ace said, smirking as he observed Akainu's desperate advance.

Without hesitation, Ace stomped on the ground, and the earth beneath them transformed into Magma more fearsome than Akainu's own. The heat that erupted from it was more intense than the core of the earth itself.

Ace's figure, glowing like the sun, appeared in front of Akainu in a flash.

"Boom!"

A surge of flames erupted from Ace's Scorching Sun Prison Garb, sealing off all of Akainu's escape routes. The intense heat made Akainu's pupils constrict with fear.

"No! There's no escape!" Akainu thought, panic flooding his mind.

"Boom!"

With a devastating punch, carrying the force of their tenfold difference, Ace struck Akainu directly, shattering bones and burning flesh in an instant.

"Woosh!"

Blood sprayed into the air, only to evaporate almost instantly from the searing heat.

Akainu's body flew through the air like a broken kite, his expression contorted with pain and shock. The Magma Fruit could not protect him from this attack. He was left with no choice but to rely solely on Haki.

Gritting his teeth, Akainu channeled all his energy into his Armament Haki.

But in that very moment—

Whoosh!

Ace appeared above him again, like the sun itself, and delivered a crushing blow with his foot to Akainu's abdomen.

"Crack! Thud!"

Akainu was driven deep into the ground, sending a massive wave of Magma, hotter than the core of the earth, across the landscape. Most of the Sabaody Archipelago's GR-1 sector was transformed into a hellish landscape of molten destruction.

"Damn it!" Akainu growled, his body sinking further into the earth's scorching core-like Magma.

Ace stood above him, watching coldly. The tenfold difference between them was clear.
