Third Person POV
Grand Line.
...
...
The events unfolding in Loguetown began to spread around the world wherever the broadcast reached, with pirates from North, West, and South Blue each drawing their own conclusions as they set sail. They declared this to be an era where the Marines were losing power and the age of pirates was advancing to a new peak.
However, for the people of the Grand Line, this could spell trouble; with all the pirates now heading for the Grand Line, the number of crimes would explode across various kingdoms.
In Alabasta, where one of the broadcasts was centered, several kingdoms had come to watch the battle, especially its allies.
"Those kids... They've really grown even more..." Kureha said, striking a pose next to the King of Drum, who kept his arms crossed, nodding.
"Chopper fainted at the end of the fight... but I no longer need to worry about him, he has very strong companions, now I can enjoy my youth," she said at the end.
"Vivi..." King Cobra also watching the broadcast murmured as soon as it was cut off.
"The princess is fine, my king," Pell spoke.
"Yes... but..." King Cobra murmured before continuing. "Did she have some volume in her belly?" he asked.
"What do you mean by that, my king?" Igaram looked surprised at the comment.
"I'm asking if she's pregnant!" he exclaimed, leaving everyone stunned. "Alabasta needs an heir! My daughter must bear the future king!" He exclaimed, leaving the guards and advisors speechless.
'I want to see my grandchild soon!' the king exclaimed in his mind, with a strong desire to continue his lineage.
"He's alive... everything turned out fine..." Elsewhere, Mr.3 was on a destroyed street while the whole place was devastated.
"I know... but I didn't want him to almost die like that... He didn't even tell us he was going to war!" Makino said with dried tears, deeply shaken by the scene of Luffy, she began kicking the ground in agony, increasing her weight and destroying the entire street.
"There's nothing we can do about it... he had everything planned, besides, he declared that Ace of the fire fists is his brother," Mr.3 spoke, trying to calm the girl.
Meanwhile, another person there was spinning in a whale form while crying, but with joy. "Luuuuuuufffffyyyyy-Chan was so amazing!" Bentham exclaimed joyfully as he watched all the scenes in front of him with delight. "He fought so hard and in the end, saved his friends, it's so incredible!!!!" he said excitedly.
In Water Seven, the mayor finished watching the broadcast with a sigh. "It seems that besides Enies Lobby, they would destroy the very headquarters of the marines... But Franky wasn't there... means he went somewhere else..." Iceburg murmured as his city was silent, it was no secret that this place was Straw Hat territory after he left here, the defeat of the marines was bad, but it also made Iceburg smile at the end.
High in the sky a few kilometers from there, Skypiea continued floating with several islands around it, while Shiki's scientist had hacked the broadcast system and put it on for everyone on the island to watch.
"Well... it looks like they did it..." A woman from Skypiea murmured.
"Thank goodness... Luffy is fine..." Uta exclaimed, touching her heart, she also felt agony with Luffy being hurt that way by the Goroseis, but in the end, he was fine.
"That was super cool!!!" Franky exclaimed, striking his pose.
"Yohohohoho! They were too much!" Brook exclaimed.
"Heeeeeeeee!" Laboon agreed, but his sound was so loud that everyone covered their ears, after all, Laboon got stranded in the middle of the city after losing his small form with Luffy using his awakening, while he had to wait for Luffy to return.
"Shark Shark!" Megalo, who wasn't as big, but still had his 20 meters with a bubble ring around his waist for him to fly.
"..." Guren, Luffy's Monkey, remained silent, but seemed to have a sparkle in his eye after seeing the strength of those fights.
"They beat Moria-sama!!!" Perona was still dissatisfied with the scene of Moria getting beaten by Jimbei and the others. "But in the end they got out of that chaos, not that I'm happy about it!" she said before pouting and looking away, while her ghost manifested looking at her as if she were lying.
"Amazing, when I see him again, I'll ask him to marry me!!" Lola also exclaimed from the crowd of spectators in Skypiea.
Meanwhile, Gan Fall was pondering what he had witnessed... staring at the sky, there were no clouds left, just the comet filling the sky beyond the blue, after all, Luffy's punch had reached them and dispelled all the clouds in the sky with a strong gust of wind, it was frightening.
"So this is a fight of the people from the blue sea?" a man from Skypiea murmured.
"And to think they are so powerful..." another spoke.
"You saw Enel, that bastard was there, and even he seemed so weak compared to the great forces..."
"These people are frightening!"
Everything seemed calm, the crowd continued murmuring, until suddenly, an explosion occurred and everyone in the city of angels looked toward a floating island powered by Bepo.
"Hey, what's happening?!" Uta asked.
"Hello, what's happening here?!" The scientist activated the den den mushi and inquired of the men.
"My lord, the prison exploded! Someone is trying to escape!" He exclaimed as people looked at each other.
"Let's go!" Uta wiped away her tears and spoke, and all the others followed to see what was happening.
Meanwhile, in another place in that sea, below the sea, the island of the fish-men was also finishing watching the broadcast. But unlike the shock, all the merfolk and sirens exclaimed, leaving the country in celebration.
"Hooray!! Whitebeard lived!!!"
"Yes, they rescued his crew member and he's still alive!!" The fish-men exclaimed in celebration, happy that their protector had survived.
"Our great friend is alive!" They exclaimed. After all, Whitebeard was someone the entire Fish-Man Island held in great regard. Seeing him alive after everything that happened was truly surprising and made them joyful.
"It seems he is alive after all..." Shyarly murmured, after all, she had seen a vision of the future that Whitebeard could die due to a great enemy, but that enemy ended up being defeated by someone else.
As the population of Fish-Man Island gathered in the center of the island, a boat at the harbor, flying the Big Mom flag, had Kutagari and frowned upon it, as they did not expect this outcome.
Fukaboshi approached them, "Well, Big Mom pirates, you saw what happened and it's better you leave here, as Whitebeard must be coming here at this very moment," he said.
Katakuri, with arms crossed and despite practically being expelled from the island, nodded in the end and looked at Smoothie who was with him. "Let's go..." he said, and they started leaving the island the next moment, returning to the New World.
"Mom won't be happy about this..." Smoothie commented.
"There's nothing we can do, just hope she doesn't freak out..." Katakuri said at the end, as even if they tried to take the territory, they would have to face the entire surviving fleet returning from Marineford alone, which doesn't seem like a good choice.
Meanwhile, back at the island's plaza, Neptune was crying in a corner of the plaza.
"It's so good that Whitebeard didn't die!" Ryuboshi, one of his sons, spoke joyfully.
But Neptune shook his head. "Yes, that's great... But my daughter has grown so much, I can't hold back my tears!!" He exclaimed, as he remembered Shirahoshi fighting in the middle of the war. He was extremely enraged when he saw this, seeing his daughter in such a dangerous place, but still, after not seeing her for months, she had changed so much, and even chosen a trident as her own weapon. He was proud.
"That's true... and think that she possesses the conqueror's Haki..." Manboshi murmured beside his brother.
"I hope she comes here, otherwise I myself will go hunting them," Neptune murmured at the end, while Shirahoshi's brothers nodded.
In the New World, the survival of Whitebeard took everyone by surprise, especially those who were watching on their islands the battle and had to immediately call their subordinates scattered through the New World going to or already being in Whitebeard's territories to conquer them, informing the occurrences and causing chaos everywhere, making the majority immediately retreat.
Big Mom, the only Yonkou who had stayed in the New World, was shocked by everything she witnessed on Whole Cake Island, wondering how this could have happened.
"Mom, what will we do?" one of her children asked.
"That old man didn't die. There's nothing we can do. Damn it, but that Straw Hat... What was that power?" she murmured with a certain gleam of fear in her eyes upon seeing Luffy's explosion. "How could that rookie have such power?" She had never seen anything like it and it was frightening.
"We can't let that kid grow up," she concluded in the end, as no one would be able to stop him if he were as strong as he was at that moment. She had also never seen a Gorosei and seeing one made her very cautious about the World Government as well.
As Big Mom plotted her plans, chaos ensued in Dressrosa. Doflamingo's men were desperate, now that the king was dead, who was the mind behind all the schemes and all the underworld market dealings.
Now with Doflamingo dead, all the phones were ringing in the Royal Palace. After hearing the news of Doflamingo's death, Princess Viola was lost in a corner, but could do nothing, while watching Doflamingo's men cry and answer the calls, being cautious about what they could now do, even though her kingdom was free from Joker, she still couldn't fight those people.
"How could this happen? How could Doflamingo die like that? And Baby 5? That traitor!" they exclaimed, cursing.
"We have no choice, we'll have to talk to the Beast Pirates," Diamante spoke more rationally, the Donquixote pirates were coming to an end with the death of Doflamingo, what they could do now was seek help from a more powerful group.
"How can you be so cold!!" Trebol exclaimed crying.
"We have no choice, we must seek protection, without Doflamingo, other Yonkou or even other forces operating in this sea, will try to take Dressrosa." He spoke at the end. "Even if we have to give everything to Kaido. This will be our only chance to get out of this situation now." He spoke at the end and everyone agreed.
Viola frowned, imagining that now that her country was freed from one monster, another monster would take over. Leaving the future uncertain.
"It seems the war is over..." a revolutionary spoke in a remote country.
"Yes, Ivankov and the boss are okay after everything..." another murmured.
"Whitebeard is still alive, but seeing the death of a Gorosei... that even marked the sky, is really incredible..."
"Yes!! We don't know what will happen to the world now, but look up, this is the mark of hope, remember this scene, it's the hope that we can defeat the World Government, no matter how powerful they are!!" someone spoke.
"The mark of hope..." others murmured looking at the purple comet in the sky.
"Hm?!" Koala was watching Sabo sleeping when she heard a commotion outside. "Mark of hope?! What are they talking about..." she murmured and looked at Sabo a moment later, hoping he would wake up soon.
Meanwhile, back in Paradise Sea, ships with the flag of the Whitebeard fleet continued sailing, while a ship with a skeleton marking scars on one of its eyes, being none other than Red-Haired Shanks, approached.
Shanks himself looked ahead, bewildered, wondering what had happened at Marineford. Watching the Whitebeard fleet half leaving, while the cries of celebration were even heard from there, with the Red Force in the distance.

Third Person POV
Grand Line.
...
...
While the world reacted one way, Marineford finally managed to calm things down, but the atmosphere was somber. Sengoku looked frustrated at what remained of the Marine headquarters.
Sailors seemed paralyzed as they looked at the trail of destruction. Some, by some luck, had been unconscious since the Straw Hat crew unleashed their Conqueror's Haki and were not crushed by the destruction while unconscious.
They finally woke up, still remembering the arrival of the Straw Hats as if it was just a second ago. They were now facing the current reality of the Marine situation.
"Hey, hey... What happened here..." The sailor trembled as he surveyed the area.
"How could this happen..." The sailor trembled, viewing the situation.
The other sailors who had witnessed all the chaos wore dejected expressions. Garp emerged from among some rocks, tossing them aside as he looked grimly after being punched by his son.
"We don't have time to lament the navy's terrible defeat... we need to start rescuing those who need help and conduct damage control." Garp approached Sengoku, continuously clenching his teeth as he viewed Marineford.
"You're right." Sengoku finally spoke, before starting to issue a command that resonated throughout Marineford. "Everyone, take care of all the injured sailors and I want reports of all our losses!!!" He exclaimed.
Officers began to issue orders as sailors helped each other, rescuing sailors hanging from cliffs, others trapped in rubble, or even on top of structures that Luffy had created with his body falling to the ground.
This continued for a while as Sengoku saw Kuzan approaching, the only admiral well, after all, Kizaru was being dragged injured but still alive, the worst of all was Akainu who lost an arm while fighting the Straw Hat alone.
"My lord... here's the report..." An officer approached with the papers after surveying the entire field. The situation was much worse than they had imagined... "40,000 navy soldiers were killed... besides Kuzan being the only admiral not down, all the Shichibukai were defeated except for two, Mihawk had stopped acting after his fight with Zoro while Hancock had fled with the pirates..." He murmured.
Mihawk had left Marineford without saying anything a moment before and didn't respond to any questions, Kuma, Moria were being carried unconscious, while the worst was Doflamingo. Being carried dead by the sailors.
"From the World Government team... 2 CP0 members are dead... Kong is also defeated... along with another 4 tenryuubitos..." He continued reading the report while a group was rescuing them. "Furthermore... Monkey D. Luffy killed a tenryuubito, still having 6 under his custody. Squard killed another after being defeated by the Straw Hats..." He finished with frustration, this was an unprecedented scandal in this era, not even Gol D. Roger had done such a thing.
Garp said nothing... even more frustrated by his granddaughter now becoming a pirate, but relieved inside that Ace, Luffy, and Lucy were still alive, despite all the destruction they caused in this war.
"And Blackbeard disappeared along with his crew and the prisoners he managed to get from Impel Down... that bastard..." Sengoku murmured, realizing there was no more sign of his crew since Marineford began to fall...
"Fleet admiral!" An officer came running to him with a den den mushi. "A call from Mary Geoise!" The man spoke.
Sengoku sighed. "That was expected..." he spoke, picking up the den den mushi.
"Sengoku..." The somber voices of the elders were heard, Sengoku even had to swallow hard, he had never heard this tone from them, they must be enraged.
"Yes..." Sengoku responded cautiously.
"Come to Mary Geoise immediately, we need to talk." They spoke in the same tone, leaving no room for discussion as he simply nodded.
"Kuzan, I want you to be responsible for organizing Marineford. I am going to the holy land." Sengoku spoke at the end, he had to go there immediately as he leapt into the air and left the sailors taking care of all the damage.
Sengoku could even see the fleet following through the sea as he looked angrily at those ships, but what more could he do, he just turned his face and followed his destiny.
Luffy on the deck, looked up at the sky with recognizing eyes, his thoughts interrupted as crew members started speaking beside him.
"Give me that loot!" Zoro complained as Hachi handed him a bottle.
"I killed a Shichibukai... what else did you do, just fought a weaker Tenryuubito than my opponent." Lami started arguing with Reiju.
"Tsk. Don't get cocky because of that. I defeated my opponent much faster than you!" Reiju snarled.
"That's because he was weaker than mine, he had the power of plasma, very similar to Kizaru's fruit." She scoffed.
"HEY, can you two stop fighting, shouldn't you be taking care of Luffy and the others!!" Vivi approached talking to Reiju, while she went over to Luffy still bandaged on the ground while all his mates were celebrating, only Baby-5 was beside him fanning him with a fan with a pleased face.
"How are you..." She approached her husband.
"I'm getting better... but I want some alcohol too." Luffy didn't hesitate to ask.
"You want alcohol!! You need to rest!" Nojiko, who was beside him, spoke in a dissatisfied tone.
"You know that won't stop me from drinking either." Luffy spoke.
"Do you want some hormones, Straw Hat-Boy?" Ivankov approached, and Luffy looked strangely at him.
"No thanks... I'd rather stay away from your hormones." Luffy had a big bias against putting hormones in his body... he didn't trust that method much and preferred to stay in that state.
"You know, but it's a pity your father didn't come to talk to you. I thought he would appear on the ship." Ivankov couldn't help commenting.
"You know he's a busy man." Luffy commented and looked at the group. "Shirahoshi, can you lift me up for a moment?" Luffy spoke while Shirahoshi, who was drinking a huge mug of orange juice made by Nami, occupying most of the deck with her tail to the outside, looked at him and nodded.
Luffy was lifted by the two palms of her hands in that state as Shirahoshi turned to the entire crew, everyone looking at their captain all bandaged up.
"Guys..." Luffy started while Yamato, Zoro, Kuina, Shirahoshi, Usopp, Lami, Reiju, Nami, Nojiko, Alvida, Vivi, Robin, Hachi, Baby-5, Enel, Jimbei, Hancock Ivankov, Crocodile, Mr. 1, and his group, Lucy and Ace who were also celebrating on the ship. Chopper, Chouchou, Hugo were in a corner passed out, but already cared for by Lami.
"HEY, get us out of here!!!" The voice of the Tenryuubitos was heard while they were still trapped in the cell.
"Enel." Luffy requested.
Enel nodded and struck them with lightning, making them scream in pain, Luffy had no mercy, while they finally quieted down for him to give a small speech. "Hurting false gods... I like this." Enel murmured, satisfied with the suffering of those people.
"I wanted to say that we got exactly what we wanted at this moment, we marked the world with our flag, now everyone recognizes us as a force in the sea, our crew now flaunts fame and power, and when we enter the New World, nothing can stop us." Luffy spoke to everyone while most nodded.
"However... we're not going to do that now." He began, leaving many surprised. "We've become powerful, but you saw what the World Government can do... we faced an elder and almost lost, there are still 4 of them in Merry Geoise and many Holy Knights we faced. And I assure you... the government has much more hidden power, while they may be in a delicate situation now... but when they recover, they will attack, so I want everyone to become even stronger. Because when we find the One Piece, the whole world will turn against us and they won't spare any effort to destroy us!" Luffy exclaimed while everyone looked more serious.
"One Piece... Captain?" Hugo raised his voice waking up at this moment. "Sounds great!" He said with a bruised smile.
"Woollfff!" Chouchou barked too.
"A new adventure?" Chopper also woke up at that moment, being in the same state as Luffy, unable to move much.
"One Piece?! Of course, the one who will find it will be Pops!" Ace crossed his arms and exclaimed.
Luffy looked at the other ships while seeing everyone celebrating there, Moby Dick was also in celebration, but another ship approaching them caught his attention, while Luffy cracked a small smile seeing Shanks appearing.
"Luffy, I'm heading to my ship, you'll have to come there when you're better!" Ace declared, cutting through Luffy's thoughts as he nodded.
"Alright, tell your old man I want a rematch with him." He said with a smile.
"You're not in any state for that, damn it!" Lami exclaimed with a scowl.
Ace just smiled and leaped into the air, transforming into a line of flames while launching other explosive flames into the sky, celebrating as all the pirates watched excitedly.
"Ace!!!" Everyone exclaimed, watching him slice through the sky before landing on the Moby Dick.
"Ace!!" All the commanders and their subordinates quickly exclaimed as they greeted their old mate.
"Guys!!" Ace exclaimed, hugging everyone excitedly. He stopped and looked at his father a bit better after Marco gave him some assistance.
"Gurarara!" Whitebeard laughed seeing his son, and finally smiled. "Good to see you back, kid."
"Pops!" He said, with a few tears running down his eyes.
"Don't cry, now let's celebrate!" Whitebeard declared.
"Yes!!!" The crew jumped excitedly.
But Whitebeard wasn't finished yet. "However... there's someone approaching that we need to take care of first..." He spoke and looked ahead as another Yonkou's ship approached.
"Luuuuuufyyyyyyy!!!!" Lucy finally noticed while pointing ahead, stunned. "Shanks is here?!" She exclaimed in disbelief.
Everyone looked at the ship called Black Pearl, with curious glances. "Wait!! Shanks... the Red-Haired?!" Nojiko exclaimed, surprised.
"Yes... but don't worry, he's not here to do harm... he's an old acquaintance, some of you still don't know, but the one who gave me this hat... it was him." Luffy declared, surprising those who had joined after they entered the Grand Line, since Luffy hadn't shared that fact yet.
"Shirahoshi, move me forward." Luffy requested as Shirahoshi delicately placed Luffy at the front of the ship.
He took a deep breath before releasing a statement that resonated across all the ships there. "SHANNNNNKKKKSSSS, YOU FINALLY SHOWED UP, YOU BASTARD, NOW WE'LL FIGHT TO THE DEATH!" He exclaimed, leaving everyone stunned; without the power of his devil fruit, he had to shout, but his words made his crew fall to the ground the next moment.
"WHAT'S THIS ALL OF A SUDDEN?!" They exclaimed.
Meanwhile, at the prow of the Red Force, Shanks looked ahead, cracking a smile at this moment.
