ONE PIECE - OP 16 - The Time Of Battle - 24-Pack Display - Sealed (JAP)

The sea is still.

In front of the Marineford fortress, thousands of soldiers wait in silence. The weapons are ready, the Admirals watch the field, and on the execution platform, a man in chains looks at the horizon.

His name is Portgas D. Ace.

For the World Government, its end must serve as a warning.
For the Navy, it is time to reaffirm its power.
For Barbabianca, on the other hand, Ace is simply a son who must be brought back home.

Then the fog clears.

The ships of the fleet emerge from the depths. The sea tilts, the air breaks, and a force capable of shaking the world crosses Marineford.

The decisive battle begins.

The Booster Box OP-16 The Time of Battle The ONE PIECE Card Game brings players and collectors back to the heart of the Summit War, transforming one of the most intense story arcs of Eiichiro Oda's work into an expansion full of battles, sacrifices, and unbreakable willpower.

At the center of the set is Portgas D. Ace, Commander of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates and a brother whom Monkey D. Luffy is willing to reach at any cost.

The flames engulf his body.
The chains try to hold him back.
But his will continues to burn.

Ace debuts as one of the six new Leaders of the expansion, leading a fast-paced strategy fueled by the bond with the Whitebeard family. His presence spans the entire set and reaches one of its highest points in the Secret Rare version, one of the most important and sought-after cards hidden among the booster packs.

But Marineford is not the only battlefield.

Before reaching his brother, Luffy must go through hell of Impel Down, A prison built to crush all hope. Floor by floor, the future Emperor gathers around him an unlikely army of inmates, revolutionaries, and former enemies.

Next to him advance Emporio Ivankov, Jinbe, Crocodile, Mr. 1, Mr. 3, and especially Mr. 2 Bon Clay, once again ready to turn his friendship into a sacrifice.

The doors are closing.
The guards are approaching.
But no prison can stop someone who fights to save a brother.

This desperate escape takes shape through the new green and blue Leader. Monkey D. Luffy, capable of leading a deck dedicated to the prisoners of Impel Down and of transforming a group of fugitives into a force ready to break into the war.

Within those same walls, another name begins to conquer its own army.

Buggy He raises his arms and, almost without realizing it, becomes the symbol of hope for hundreds of inmates. Where others see chaos, he finds followers. Where the danger seems insurmountable, the future Emperor once again manages to turn fate into his most powerful weapon.

The new blue Leader dedicated to Buggy celebrates this very unpredictable strength: not the power of a single fighter, but the unstoppable wave of an entire crowd ready to follow him.

On the other side of the conflict, the Navy deploys everything it has.

The command is located Sengoku, the Fleet Admiral who bears on his shoulders the weight of the entire operation. Under his gaze advance the three greatest military powers of the World Government.

Borsalino He crosses the field like a lightning bolt impossible to follow.
Kuzan It freezes the sea and transforms the horizon into a stretch of ice.
Sakazuki A rain of magma pours down on Marineford, accompanied by a justice that knows no hesitation.

The three Admirals are the protagonists of the spectacular Super Alternative Art of the set, cards designed to celebrate their dominant presence through illustrations and finishes with a strong collectible impact.

When they fight together, they do not seem like ordinary men.

I am light, ice, and magma.
Three calamities sitting in front of the gallows.
Three powers ready to destroy anyone who dares to challenge the Navy.

Leading them in the game is the new purple Leader. Sengoku, designed to deploy high-cost characters and build a field dominated by the military power of the three Admirals.

But while the world watches Marineford, other wills continue to move.

From the Land of Wano comes Yamato, protagonist of a new Black Leader linked to characters capable of transforming and to strategies that exploit the cards present in the discard pile. It is a force born under Kaido's rule, but fueled by the desire for freedom and the will inherited from Kozuki Oden.

And in the darkness grows the ambition of a man who did not come to Marineford to save anyone.

Marshall D. Teach He/she/it waits for the right moment.

While others fight for family, justice, or freedom, Blackbeard advances following a plan that only he seems to know. The power of darkness swallows everything, dragging men and attacks toward a destiny that is now impossible to avoid.

Teach debuts as a black and yellow Leader, capable of manipulating the course of the battle through his own darkness, and is also the protagonist of the second Secret Rare of the expansion.

Ace and Teach.

The fire and the darkness.
Two men united by a clash that set in motion the events destined to lead the world to Marineford.

The Booster Box contains 24 sealed sachets, each composed of 6 random cards in Japanese language.

Twenty-four entries into the heart of the battle.

Each packet can reveal a new Leader, a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, a prisoner from Impel Down, a Navy officer, or one of the warriors who forever changed the course of history.

The first seal is broken.

The cards slowly slide through the hands. An ally enters the scene, an Event recreates a decisive moment, and a new strategy begins to take shape.

Then there is the last card left.

For a moment, Marineford seems to become still again.

A Super Rare could appear, ready to become the centerpiece of the deck.
One of the two Secret Rares dedicated to Ace and Teach.
A Special Card with an alternate illustration.
The hidden Treasure Rare in the set.
Or one of the spectacular cards dedicated to the three Admirals.

There is no certainty before the revelation.

There exists only that absolute silence in which every possibility is still alive.

The expansion includes 126+1 different types of cards, divided among Leader, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Super Rare, Secret Rare, Special Card, Treasure Rare, and a dedicated DON!! card.

The Japanese version also preserves the original identity of the Asian product, from the box design to the card texts, and is particularly suitable for those who collect the different international editions of the ONE PIECE Card Game.

The Time of Battle It does not only tell the story of a war.

It tells the story of a father who shakes the world to save his son.
Of a brother willing to cross hell without stopping.
Of a Navy ready to sacrifice everything to defend its own power.
Of a man hidden in the shadows, waiting to take possession of the future.

Twenty-four sachets are waiting to be opened.

Whitebeard's ships have appeared.
The three Admirals have left their positions.
Ace's flames illuminate the scaffold.

The battle that changed the world is about to begin again.

This time, his fate is in your hands.
