After defeating Hawkeye's slash wave, the Scorching Sun slash wave was still moving at an extremely fast speed toward Marineford.
At this time, everyone else had already gotten out of the way aside from Bartholomew Kuma, who was standing beside Hawkeye.
Kuma gathered air with his palms and compressed it into a giant bubble which resembled a paw-print. Kuma kept compressing it until it fit within his hands.
Kuma then gently sent the bubble that resembled a bear paw the flaming slash wave, attempting to block.
Although the bubble was small, it had extraordinary power. Even a Vice-Admiral would die if he took it head-on.
However, this compressed air bomb would have a hard time hitting opponents because of its speed.
But the Nagasawa's flaming slash wave could not dodge.
Soon, the flaming slash wave collided with Kuma's compressed air bomb, causing a violent explosion beyond everyone's imagination.
Boom!!!!
A loud explosion sounded.
Raging flames ravaged the square, and many Marine soldiers were burned to death before they could even react.
Doflamingo reacted quickly. He pulled himself up by latching his string into the clouds, thus avoiding the scorching slash wave.
The other Seven Warlords of the Sea also displayed their capabilities.
Moria summoned a bunch of zombies to barely block the flame storm.
Kuma quickly raised his palm and repelled the flame.
Nagasawa smiled. Using compressed air to block his scorching slash wave was a bad choice as it made Nagasawa's scorching slash wave stronger.
A portion of the square was already scorched black even before Nagasawa's scorching slash wave reached the square.
The scorching slash wave was very fast, and it was about to reach Hawkeye.
Hawkeye took a deep breath and braced himself to stop this slash!
He planned to take this slash wave head-on in order to see a glimmer of Whitebeard's strength!
He imbued Yoru with Color of Arms Haki as he slashed the scorching slash wave.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
A loud boom rang out as the Supreme Grade Sword, Yoru and the scorching slash wave collided.
Krrkk!
The ice seemed to break apart because it could not withstand this powerful impact.
At this moment, Hawkeye finally felt the power of this scorching slash wave.
Hawkeye felt as if his entire body was devoured by the sun at this moment. The powerful heat was constantly swallowing him. He had to use Color of Arms Haki to cover his entire body. Only then could he barely protect himself from being burned to death by the flames.
Hawkeye was pushed back by the force of the scorching slash wave, leaving a black mark and deep scratches on the ground.
From a distance, it seemed like Marineford was being cut open by this huge scorching slash wave.
Sengoku didn't seem very happy with this. He clearly had underestimated Whitebeard.
The battle had just begun, and the Marine was already at a disadvantage.
The huge scorching slash wave caused too many casualties, be it Marine's force and weaponry.
At the same time, the Whitebeard Pirates' morale rose. They were even more convinced that they would emerge victorious and did everything they could to breach into the square.
Hawkeye wanted to repel the scorching slash wave into the air, but it already took everything he got to withstand it.
When the scorching slash wave was about to reach the execution platform, Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru immediately appeared beside Hawkeye to stop it.
Aokiji used Ice Age again, and the cold air around his body tried to destroy this raging flame.
But whenever Aokiji's cold air touched the golden flames at the outermost edge of the scorching slash wave, it would instantly disappear as if it had never existed.
This was something unprecedented for Aokiji, and it was not like he had never encountered a flame-type ability user before, but he had never felt so powerless before.
But Aokiji's efforts were not in vain. After constantly bombarding the scorching slash wave with cold air, the pale golden flame dimmed a lot.
"This scorching slash wave is bad news. As expected of the strongest man in the world." Kizaru said with his signature smirk on his face as he shot yellow lasers to reduce the burden on Hawkeye.
"He is just a loser of this era!" Akainu mocked Whitebeard as he also tried to stop the scorching slash wave by launching his magma-turned arm toward it.
The three Admirals attacked together, and with Hawkeye, the scorching slash wave was instantly stopped before Hawkeye repelled it into the air.
Even if the scorching slash wave was repelled into the air, it still split apart all the clouds in its path, leaving behind a sword mark. It didn't even dissipate even when it was no longer in everyone's field of vision.
"Gu ra ra ra ra. You have to start over from breathing if you want to catch up to me, Hawkeye brat." Even though his scorching slash wave was stopped by the Marine, Nagasawa still laughed and even teased Hawkeye even though Hawkeye might not understand the meaning of his words.
"Hmph, how many slashes can that old body of yours dish out?" Akainu taunted.
As soon as Akainu finished speaking, a huge ice block was hurled towards him.
It turned out to be Jozu who pulled out a block of ice and threw it at Akainu with sheer force.
"Major Eruption!"
Akainu was enraged, and his arm turned into magma again. The huge magma fist directly smashed and melted the ice block into nothing.
After crushing the ice, his magma fist also bombarded the pirates in the bay with numerous magmic fists that he launched into the air, with the largest one headed toward Nagasawa who was standing on Moby Dick.
Nagasawa laughed and said disdainfully, "Are you lighting my birthday cake, Magma Brat?"
"This firework is not even half my attack's power!"
Nagasawa grabbed Murakumogiri and once again dished out a scorching slash wave with Sun Breathing.
Although the scorching slash wave didn't have a golden flame like earlier, it was terrifying regardless. It eradicated all the magmic attacks in the vicinity and left a massive mark on the square.
However, after dishing out this scorching slash wave, Nagasawa pretended to catch his breath.
