[114] A Chaotic Battlefield
[2200 Words]
-----------------------------------------------
*Boom!!*
*Bang!!*
*Explosion!!*
The battle erupted with a storm of attacks. Marineford's artillery relentlessly bombarded Whitebeard's allied ships, while the pirates retaliated with a barrage of cannon and bazooka fire. In mere seconds, the battlefield descended into unparalleled chaos.
"Die, you bastard!" A random pirate grinned wickedly as he decapitated a marine soldier, but his joy was short-lived as another marine blew his head off.
*Swish!* Another pirate appeared and killed the marine who had killed his comrade. This chain of killings continued across the brutal battlefield.
"It's my turn to make a move," The Vice Admiral Momonga Said with a cold expression, ready to slaughter as many pirates as possible.
He stepped forward and vanished using <Shave>, cutting down any pirate in his path like a machine.
"Hmph!" Suddenly, Momonga heard a cold snort and looked at the newcomer.
It was a tall man, around four meters, with messy black hair and a scarred face.
"The Devil's Scythe, leader of the Harvest Pirates. So, you chose to side with Whitebeard? Don't think you'll leave here alive!" Momonga recognized the pirate as one of Whitebeard's allies.
"Sihahaha! Enough talking, let our fists talk!" The Devil's Scythe laughed wickedly and advanced towards Momonga.
*Screech!!*
In the next second, the Devil's Scythe's hand transformed into a sharp scythe and clashed with Momonga's sword.
With the sound of screeching metal, the golden scythe was pushed back a few inches but retained its wicked smile.
Ren noticed this battle thanks to his observation Haki and decided to take action. He had spotted many Devil Fruit users just minutes into the war, and his greed grew; he wanted to kill them personally to claim their Devil Fruits.
Still aligned with the Warlords, and seeing no one else had joined the battle, he decided to be the first.
*Whoosh!*
With the sound of rustling wind, he disappeared using <Shave> and swiftly moved to where the Devil's Scythe was fighting Vice Admiral Momonga.
This move caught the attention of several people, including Mihawk and Doflamingo, as well as Sengoku, who observed everything using his observation Haki.
Whitebeard, standing on his ship's deck, frowned when he saw Ren taking action.
"Should I go deal with him, Pops?" Marco saw Whitebeard's expression and naturally knew what he wanted, so he suggested taking the initiative.
Whitebeard shook his head, rejecting his son's proposal, and quickly refocused on the battlefield while also keeping an eye on Ren's movements.
At the same time, the Devil's Scythe felt a bad feeling in his heart, an instinct telling him to flee. But he was stuck in a fight against Momonga and needed full concentration, or he would be defeated.
'Death Blade!!'
Ren suddenly appeared before the two fighters and internally called out the name of his skill. He had already drawn his sword and infused it with armament Haki.
*Swish!!*
A medium-sized blade slashed towards the Devil's Scythe, who widened his eyes and tried to retreat. Momonga looked at Ren in shock; he was within the attack range too!
Without hesitation, Momonga used <Shave> again and retreated several meters, not caring about the Devil's Scythe's horrified expression.
All this happened in just a few seconds. The Devil's Scythe found himself in a life-or-death crisis. A fierce expression appeared on his face as he turned his other hand into another scythe, then created two sharp air blades and slashed towards Ren's Death Blade, formed from the power of <Versa> and Ren's armament Haki.
"Arrgh!! Cut for me! Cut! Cut! Cut!" The Devil's Scythe screamed madly, slashing with all his might with the air blades towards Ren's attack.
*Swish!*
*Splash!*
*Flow!*
With a loud collision sound, Ren's attack struck the Devil's Scythe's body, slicing it in half. His terrified, unwilling, and hate-filled gaze remained fixed on his killer.
Those watching Ren's movements couldn't help but adopt serious expressions; the power of that blade was overwhelming!
The Devil's Scythe's strength was not to be underestimated. He could fight a Vice Admiral and might even win against an medium-level one. His bounty had reached 450 million berries.
'Miss System, store his Devil Fruit,' Ren commanded internally. He no longer cared about the dead body and, after ensuring the Devil Fruit was stored, used <Shave> again and disappeared, ignoring the terrified expressions of the pirates and marines.
Momonga looked at the Devil's Scythe's body, then at the spot where Ren had disappeared, and gritted his teeth. He didn't like this arrogant pirate's behavior!
As a follower of Akainu's path, Momonga believes that all pirates should die, even the Warlords are just pirates with the support of the World Government.
With an angry sigh, he drew his sword again and randomly cut down an unfortunate pirate.
Ren did not return to where the other Warlords were, but instead, wandered through the battlefield, attacking anyone who crossed his path.
"Bastard!" a pirate roared fiercely and fired a cannonball at Ren.
*Whoosh!*
Ren slashed the cannonball with his sword, splitting it in two and causing it to explode away from him. He looked at the terrified pirate in front of him and smiled mockingly.
He was about to cut the pirate, but the latter fell on his own.
"Stupid fool~" a soft voice came from behind the pirate, and Mikita appeared, having used <Finger Gun> to kill the pirate. She greeted Ren.
"Hello, Captain~ This battlefield is lively, isn't it?" She walked towards him, held his hand with hers, and smiled brightly as if she didn't care about the fierce war around her.
"Mikita, where is Nami?" He patted her head and asked.
"She is coming here now." She pointed to a figure moving quickly and cutting down pirates in her path.
In a few seconds, Nami arrived and was greeted by Ren.
After reuniting, they were about to discuss their next move, but the three of them simultaneously looked towards the Warlords.
There, Mihawk drew his sword and began to walk slowly.
"Is he going to act? Fufufufu..." Doflamingo laughed, but seriousness could be seen in his eyes behind his glasses.
Mihawk nodded and looked at Whitebeard. "I want to see the difference between him and me."
At that moment, Mihawk's movements caught the attention of many people, whether on the battlefield or those watching the war through live broadcasts.
Mihawk drew his sword and aimed a strike at Moby Dick, releasing a green energy blade that directly targeted Whitebeard.
But before it reached Whitebeard, someone appeared in the path of the energy blade and blocked it with his body.
"That..."
"It's Jozu!"
"He blocked Mihawk's strike!"
Seeing Jozu intercept Mihawk's strike with his body, the pirates became excited, and their ferocity doubled.
Ren had to cut down several pirates who attacked him enthusiastically when they saw Mihawk's incidental strike being blocked.
Back to Jozu, who had turned half of his body into diamond, he gritted his teeth and pulled out his feet from the ice.
At the same time, Kizaru, who had been sitting in his seat, suddenly disappeared and appeared in the sky near Moby Dick. He pointed his finger at Whitebeard and fired laser beams at him.
"Want to hit Pops? In your dreams!"
Marco laughed as he intercepted the lasers while his body was covered in blue flames.
Seeing this scene, Ren's eyes shone with hidden greed. Marco's Devil Fruit was of the Mythical Zoan type, possessing incredible healing abilities, and it didn't lack in offensive capabilities. Simply perfect.
Some thoughts began to form in his mind on how to obtain this Devil Fruit.
Back to Marco, he ascended into the sky and fiercely clashed with Kizaru. Sounds of clashing could be heard in the sky, indicating the strength of their clash. After a few seconds, Kizaru fell to the ground but quickly reformed into a golden light and returned to his original shape.
"Terrifying~ Whitebeard Pirates are terrifying~" he said in an extremely slow tone, as if a sloth were speaking. Although he pretended to be scared, his expression revealed hidden mockery.
"That bastard never takes things seriously as usual!!" Sengoku shouted angrily. He wanted to slam his desk but remembered he wasn't in his office at the moment, and could only grumble in anger.
"Giant Squad, be careful," Kizaru said in his usual tone. The Giant Squad was a group of Marine giants that served in the Marines, which began 100 years ago due to a certain incident.
Suddenly, a Marine's attention was drawn to Jozu, who seemed to be preparing to do something.
"What is he doing?"
"T-That's...!"
"Is that an iceberg?!"
Marines looked at the massive ice rock that Jozu had uprooted in horror, while civilians watching the live broadcast were in a state of fear.
"Is this really the power of humans?!"
"This battle... these monsters... is this really our world?!"
Residents of the four seas and the Heaven had never seen such supernatural powers before. Whether it was Marco, Kizaru, Mihawk, Ren, or Jozu, they now looked like supernatural monsters in their eyes.
Not just civilians, but even the kings and nobles who thought that military strength and the number of soldiers determined victory, their view of the world changed drastically!
Back on the battlefield, Jozu violently hurled the massive ice rock towards the Admirals' seats.
"Those Two...why are they leaving their place?" Akainu said coldly and looked at the incoming iceberg with cold eyes.
In the next moment, hot magma appeared in his hand and pierced the giant ice rock.
With that action, hell began for the pirates. The massive iceberg, which had once been ice, transformed into a rain of miniature volcanic meteors, crashing down upon them.
Akainu paid no attention to the pirates' screams as they were killed and their bodies melted under his magma. He glanced at Jozu with a smirk.
But at that moment, his eyes narrowed as he saw an unfamiliar figure slowly approaching Jozu.
With a sword hanging at her waist and her orange hair neatly tied, Nami advanced cautiously toward Jozu.
Soon, the Den Den Mushi devices picked up her presence, and she appeared on live broadcast screens.
"Who is this woman?"
"I remember she's a member of the Sin Pirates, led by the Black Death, the new Warlord!"
"Oh yes, that's her—the Bloody Sword!"
"What does she want? Is it possible she's going to confront Jozu?"
At that moment, the world buzzed with excitement as Nami appeared, confronting Jozu without any visible sign of tension.
In Alabasta, screens also broadcast scenes of the battle.
In the royal palace, Ren's remaining crew members—Nojiko, Robin, Zala, and Leila—watched Nami with bright eyes, along with the recently revived Bell-mère.
Kalifa was also present at Ren's request, to be monitored by Nojiko and prevented from doing anything foolish.
Kalifa adjusted her glasses and said calmly, "Does she really have the strength to fight Jozu?"
"Just wait and see. I think the whole world will be shocked by Nami's power. Isn't that right, Nojiko?" Robin responded to Kalifa and turned to Nojiko.
"I'm really looking forward to seeing Nami's strength again. There's no doubt she'll leave the world in awe," Nojiko said, polishing her weapon with a white cloth while watching the live broadcast.
"But why did my brother let Nami face Jozu so early?" Leila asked a question that was on everyone's mind.
Robin thought for a moment and replied, "Perhaps it's to demonstrate her strength to the world, or rather, to showcase the power of our pirate crew."
"That's right. Many people believe the strength of our crew depends solely on my brother, so it's important to correct this misconception," Leila agreed with Robin's explanation.
"Nami will definitely win!" Bell-mère was extremely confident in her daughter's strength and felt no concern.
"They've started fighting!" Zala's voice drew their attention back to the live broadcast.
In Marineford, Jozu glared at the girl approaching him with anger and hatred.
He had never met her before, but he knew who she was—one of the Sinful Pirates and said to be the Black Death's right-hand woman.
The Black Death... He was the one who caused this entire situation and severed Ace's hand. Ace was like a brother to the Whitebeard Pirates, so how could they not despise Ren who harmed him?
Now Jozu wondered if the Black Death, Ren, would feel sorrow and pain if he killed this woman.
He intended to make him feel it! He would avenge Ace and his fallen comrades, as well as those who would fall in this war!
"It seems you're eager to kill me, aren't you?"
Seeing the anger and hatred in Jozu's eyes, Nami understood what he was thinking.
Jozu did not respond, but the tension in the air heightened, and everyone's gaze was fixed on this battle.
Sengoku, Garp, and Tsuru watched Nami with various expressions. Garp had seen her before during his visit to Alabasta, while Sengoku was eager to see the capabilities of this rapidly rising pirate crew.
In the next moment, people around the world widened their eyes as they witnessed the power Nami unleashed!
