Capítulo 713: Marco the Phoenix, and Diamond Jozu.
_________________
"Jozu, Marco... I feel immense pride as I see you standing proudly in a battlefield like this..."
On Sphinx Island, the Whitebeard was deeply moved as he witnessed this solidarity and unity displayed by his sons at the start of the Summit War.
"...But seeing the grim expression on Ace's face is extremely disheartening..."
"He must be blaming himself for what's happening... He'll blame himself even more as the war progresses."
"That's true, Oyaji. With each image he presents, all I see is despair and frustration. I don't know when things will improve for him," Marco replied.
"Wouldn't this situation worsen when he sees his brother Luffy's arrival? And Luffy, in turn, has no intention of giving up unless he's freed from the execution platform..." Stussy pointed out an additional point.
"Hmm, yes, that's true... I admire what Luffy said in the past, 'This is war, people die in war,' Ace needs to think in that way so he doesn't blame himself," the Whitebeard referenced Luffy's past words to Vivi, who was terrified at the time, much like Ace currently.
…
"Do you want to know the distance between you and Oyaji with this level of strength only, Mihawk? Hehe~ Try again because it seems as long as Diamond Jozu is present there, you won't succeed in what you want."
Jozu felt intense excitement in this moment as he saw his future counterpart take Mihawk's powerful sword attack head-on without even batting an eyelid.
He saw that his counterpart in the manga was completely at ease while repelling the attack of the world's strongest swordsman.
The adrenaline rushing through his body at that moment was priceless, especially after hearing his father's praise, who was impressed by the scene.
The feeling Jozu experienced was also felt by Marco.
If Jozu was the earthly shield of Whitebeard, Marco was like the aerial shield of Whitebeard, removing all dangers that came from above.
"Terrific, Admiral Kizaru can't do anything in the presence of Marco the Phoenix -yoi."
With a smile on his face, Marco quickly turned to the next chapter because, after all, he wasn't a fan of cliffhangers!
"What an amazing panel! This is it! This will be my profile picture on the global forum, this is what I've been looking for!"
Marco made his decision instantly upon seeing the picture where he appeared splendidly after protecting his father from Kizaru's intense laser attack, where his blue flames absorbed every laser from Kizaru.

Chapter's Events:
—————————
"What with his body!!?"
"He took Kizaru-san's attack head-on… And he didn't go down…!!!"
"Does he really have that ability…!!?"
Voices of amazement and astonishment could be heard from every Marine who witnessed the current scene.
"Rarer even than the Logia… A Mythical-Beast Type Zoan Fruit!!!" commented Kizaru.
"Ya got me," replied Marco with a smile, his right eye glowing with a yellowish-blue flame, then transforming into a marvelous creature resembling a fiery bird in the next moment.
"You Little Liar~" said Kizaru.
"The power to take any attack and regenerate instantly in a burst of flames… That's the first Division Commander…!!!"
"Marco the Phoenix!!!"
Marco launched himself in his Phoenix form towards Kizaru like an arrow shot from its bow.
"Can't say I've ever seen a bird quite like that…!!" sarcastically commented Kizaru, then he fired dozens of laser shots at Marco, who skillfully deflected them, as they had no effect on his healing blue flames.
After that, Marco reached Kizaru and kicked him, but Kizaru countered with his arm.
"Mmmm… Pretty effective, I'd say~" said Kizaru.
"You Liar!" replied Marco.
As soon as he said that, Kizaru was sent flying like a rocket towards the ground.
"Kizaru-sa…"
Before the Marine soldier could finish his sentence, Kizaru stopped as if nothing had happened, then sensing something, he quickly gave his orders.
"Giant unit!! Watch out for aerial attacks~!!!"
"Yes Sir!!"
Hearing that, the seven giants obediently withdrew their weapons.
"Huge enemies approaching!!!"
The giant unit's warning caught the attention of the pirates who were slaughtering ordinary Marine soldiers.
"Fall back, all of you!!!"
At that moment, a voice from behind urged them to retreat quickly.
Veins bulged on Jozu's arms as he tried to grasp the edge of an icy mountain.
"Jozu!!!"
"That strength is outrageous…!!!"
"Haaaaaahhhhh!!!"
As the icy mountain continued to tear from the frozen sea, Jozu shouted louder and louder, eventually managing to pull and throw it onto the Marineford with all his might.
"It's a great chunk of Ice-!!!"
"That thing's too huge-!!!"
The Marines' mouths opened wide in shock.
"Let's see you stop this-!!!"
•———•———•———•———•
"Terrific!!!"
"Absolutely amazing!!!"
"The Whitebeard Pirates are terrifying!!!"
"Is that mythical creature the Phoenix!? Do the Whitebeard Pirates really have such a rare Devil Fruit!?"
"I only thought that the Hunters Guild had such creatures, like Olvia's Ice Phoenix and Bell-mére's Golden Crow and Enel's Thunderbird… Who would have imagined that Marco the Phoenix existed as well…"
"This blue flames resembles the white ice that Olvia-san's flame tongues resemble… These two fruits are rare and share similar characteristics!"
"Oh my god, I want to have such power... If only the 'Treasure Houses' also sold Devil Fruits instead of just buying them…"
"The only way to get a Devil Fruit is to join an official protection organization, become a hunter or a marine soldier, that's your only way, or you can rely on your luck and happen to stumble upon one by chance."
"This is Jozu… terrifying! What power is this, hell! He can throw a piece of ice the size of a mountain with such ease!?"
"What is this!? He's planning to destroy Marineford in one go… Ace is still on the other side, man, what are you doing!"
Across different corners of the world, readers were sitting on the edges of their seats, with sweaty foreheads and bloodshot eyes as they flipped through the manga pages.
This time, One Piece came with a volume full of greatness!
The Summit War was full of battles here and there! This was just the beginning, but the number of fights and battles was uncountable!
Among the Whitebeard Pirates, besides Whitebeard himself, Edward Newgate, two individuals stood out, Marco the Phoenix and Diamond Jozu, who were like disasters walking through the battlefield and causing a lot of damage, forcing the admirals to intervene from their comfortable seats.
…
In the Sorbet Kingdom, rebels were supporting the Whitebeard Pirates in the Summit War.
"These men… are strong…"
"The Whitebeard Pirates have truly dependable sons."
"I know Marco and Jozu… They are interesting young men, there are still others stronger, in recent years, Kozuki Oden joined them, who is also considered one of the upper forces, unfortunately, he's not present in the Summit War." commented Garp.
"The Whitebeard Pirates' sons will cause a lot of damage to the Marines, but that's it..."
"In the end, they might experience disappointments fleeing from the battlefield."
Upon hearing that, Garp, Kuma, Crocodile, and the rest looked sideways at Dragon, who wasn't confident in the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates.
