As he was getting ready for the second attack, Shanks decided to join the battle, foreseeing the future for 10 seconds, and launched an overwhelmingly powerful Haki strike, calling it Kamusari (Divine Departure).

With one single slash, both Killer and his captain were slaughtered, and both of them lost consciousness. Shanks decided to let the giants of Elbaph land the final blow, obliterating the Kid Pirates for better or for worse with another devastating attack called Hakoku Sovereignty.
