Bab 170: The World's Greatest Swordsman vs The World's Strongest Man
On the execution platform, Sengoku held the Den Den Mushi with a blank expression. He didn't look at Ace. Sengoku looked at the Den Mushi and the audience and said:
"Ace, tell me your father's name!"
Ace looked at Sengoku and closed his eyes. He then said resolutely: "My father is Whitebeard!"
The sunlight was reflected on Sengoku's glasses. Sengoku immediately retorted:
"No! Your mother's name is Portgas D. Rouge. A year and three months after your father's death, the baby who inherited the evilest blood in the world was born. That is you!"
Sengoku turned to Ace and said clearly, "Your father is the Pirate King."
When Sengoku revealed who Ace was, the whole world was shocked.
Countless news reporters who were watching the live broadcast were so shocked that their notebooks fell to the ground. They looked at the live broadcast screen in disbelief.
"How is this possible? He is still... still alive!"
"Thank god he is arrested now. If that Ace carries that scum's bloodline, he must be a very cruel person."
Countless people around the world began to marvel and discuss the important news that Sengoku had just announced.
The Marines were shocked. For the record, all the people related to Roger were either arrested or killed.
In order to completely sever Roger's bloodline, the Marines killed all the babies and women who were pregnant within ten months after Roger's execution.
But they were relieved after finding out that the last bloodline of the Pirate King would be executed soon.
Garp clenched his fists as he recalled the past.
When Roger was in prison, he entrusted Ace to him.
Even though he was Roger's archenemy, that was not all there was to it between them.
In the end, Garp promised Roger to protect his son.
Roger, the Pirate King, was indeed guilty, but his unborn child was innocent.
But now...
Garp just held his forehead with his hand.
When Vice Admiral Tsuru saw this, he asked with concern, "Garp, are you okay?"
Garp shook his head to show that he was fine.
On the execution platform, Sengoku was still talking about the reason why Ace deserved to be executed.
He also told Ace that it was not a coincidence that he met Whitebeard in the past, but since Whitebeard was afraid that the Marines would discover his identity, he decided to protect him and raise him into the next Pirate King.
Ace angrily refuted Sengoku, saying that he joined Whitebeard Pirates to make Whitebeard the Pirate King.
Sengoku was about to say something when one of the Marine below suddenly reported to Sengoku:
"Reporting in Fleet Admiral Sengoku, the Gate of Justice is opened without any authorization, and we can't contact the control room."
"What did you say!" Sengoku said in disbelief.
But soon, the worst news came.
The Marine who was observing the surroundings with a binocular suddenly saw a large number of pirate ships suddenly approaching! They were not far from Marineford, and the people on the ship were no ordinary pirates. They were all famous pirates in the New World.
"Everyone, get ready to fight!" a Mariner officer said quickly.
Those who were holding the gun loaded the bullet, and those who had the sword immediately drew them. The turret at the bay entrance was also looking for Whitebeard.
"Don't be too hasty! Find Whitebeard first in case they scheme something." A Marine officer ordered.
That was the power of the strongest man in the world. None of the Marines dared to make a move before they found Whitebeard.
Forty-three pirate ships from the New World were approaching one after another.
The originally calm water surface in the bay suddenly gurgled.
When Vice Admiral Tsuru saw this scene, she frowned and said, "It seems there is a small hole in our formation."
Garp also sighed, "He sure comes out from such an unexpected place."
"Report, there is a shadow at the bottom of the bay! " The Marine in charge of observing was constantly reporting.
Even without him reporting, the people could see that the calm sea had become like this.
Sengoku, who was standing on the execution platform, saw this scene and understood what was happening.
"So they all came from the bottom of the sea after coating their ship! "
Bssss!
A huge ship suddenly emerged from the water and appeared in front of everyone.
"The Moby Dick is here!" A Marine shouted.
There was not a single Marine who wouldn't recognize Whitebeard Pirates' flagship
The other two ships also emerged from the water, following Moby Dick.
Three pirate ships faced three directions to prevent the Marine's sudden assault
The Marine in charge of observation quickly looked through the binoculars and saw the 1st Division Captain, Marco the Phoenix, followed by the Captain of the 3rd Division, Diamond Jozu, 5th Division Captain, Vista of the Flower Swords...
"All fourteen Division Captains of Whitebeard Pirates are here." One of the Marines on the tower hurriedly reported the situation.
Ace also raised his head and looked at the familiar pirate ship.
The Marines still held their attack. They were waiting for the strongest man in the world to appear.
The scene fell into silence for a moment, and only the sound of heavy footsteps echoed throughout the whole Marineford.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Everyone's eyes were focused on a tall man wearing a white cloak with a massive Naginata walking to the bow of the ship.
"Whitebeard!" Sengoku shouted the epithet of the strongest man in the world.
"Gu ra ra ra ra." Nagasawa laughed like Whitebeard. He looked at Sengoku on the execution platform and said:
"Sengoku, I haven't seen you for decades. I assume my dear son is okay, right?"
The moment Nagasawa appeared, the Marines on the scene felt intimidated. Some of them were actually shaking.
Sengoku's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He didn't think that Whitebeard would directly invade the bay in this way. This was outside of his calculation.
With Whitebeard's terrifying destructive power, he was afraid that the headquarters would disappear even if the Marines won this battle.
"Wait a bit, Ace." Nagasawa looked at Ace on the execution platform and revealed a gentle smile.
"Pops!" When Ace saw Whitebeard from the execution platform, he let out a heart-wrenching roar.
As the 2nd Division Captain of Whitebeard Pirates, he knew how bad Whitebeard's condition was. He was completely reliant on his medication to stay alive.
And despite being in such a fragile state, his pops picked up his weapon and came to the headquarters to save him.
At this time, Ace felt endless regret. Things wouldn't have gone this way had he listened to his pops' advice.
Now his pops and all his companions had to risk their lives because of him.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Nagasawa adjusted the rhythm of his breathing and entered the state of Total Concentration Breathing, temporarily strengthening his body.
Although he was about to use Tremor-Tremor Fruit's ability instead of a sword technique, with a stronger physique, he could also boost the vibrations' power.
Nagasawa inserted Murakumogiri into the shipboard. He clenched his fists tightly. Then, he waved his fists, which were covered by quake bubbles.
Crack! Crack!
There was a mirror-shattering-like sound as a powerful vibration force traveled through the sea.
Rumble!!!
A violent tremor sounded. Although it wasn't aimed at Marineford, the Marines there could feel the tremor.
But since Nagasawa's target was the sea itself, the Marines didn't feel that strong of a quake, which made them a little confused.
"What happened to the quake just now?" A Marine asked curiously, but no one answered him.
Ace looked at Whitebeard, who was supposed to be resting, overexerted himself. He felt so guilty that he couldn't help but say,
"I ran out on my own, why did you guys risk your lives to save me! This is my own fault!"
"No, I'm the one who told you to go, son." Nagasawa looked at Ace and smiled.
"Stop lying! You persuaded me, but I still insisted to go..."
"I told you that I'm the one that asked you to go, right, Marco?" Nagasawa repeated.
Marco said seriously, "I heard it. You have suffered a lot, Ace."
"However, everyone should know what will happen when they lay a hand on our comrades." Marco directly said.
"We will never let anyone hurt you, Ace!"
"Just you wait! We will save you immediately, Ace!"
The rest of the Division Captains also displayed their determination to save Ace. The whole Whitebeard Pirates were raring to fight the Marines.
Before the Marines could kill Whitebeard Pirates' momentum, the sea suddenly changed.
They saw that the sea suddenly shook and two hundreds meters high waves from both sides of Marineford.
The Tremor-Tremor Fruit's ability that Nagasawa used earlier was coming.
"Is this a sudden tsunami!" Some Marines looked at this huge wave that was ready to swallow everything whole.
Most of the Marines were too small in front of this wave.
The waves kept rising, and the shadow of the waves actually covered the whole Marineford.
If these two waves hit Marineford, it would be levelled for sure.
However, Aokiji made a move at this moment.
Whoosh!
Aokiji instantly jumped into the air as he pointed at the two huge waves. A thin line of ice quickly spread and hit the huge waves.
"Ice Age!"
Aokiji didn't underestimate Whitebeard's ability and used his trump card, Ice Age, right away.
If these waves hit Marineford, the Marines wouldn't be able to fight anymore. If the base was leveled by the pirates, they would be humiliated in front of the whole world.
Krkkk! Krrkkk!
The two huge waves were instantly frozen into ice because of Aokiji's Ice Age.
"Bring it on, kid!." Nagasawa clenched Murakumogiri and challenged Aokiji.
In order to catch him off guard, he just used Tremor-Tremor Fruit to create a tsunami instead of Water Release.
But Nagasawa discovered that Aokiji's Ice-Ice Fruit might prove to be trouble for his Water Release, so he had to beat Aokiji first.
"Ice Block: Partisan!"
Four ice spears appeared around Aokiji, and he launched them toward Nagasawa.
Nagasawa grabbed Murakumogiri and enveloped its blade with a bubble quake before slashing Aokiji's ice spears.
Crack! Crack!
Because of the strong vibration force, the ice spears directly shattered and even hit Aokiji, who was floating in the air. However, Aokiji had already turned himself into ice, and the pile of ice fell.
"What!" Some new recruits couldn't believe what they saw. Was one of the Marine's strongest combatants defeated just like that?
Of course not.
Aokiji, who fell into the sea, instantly froze the entire bay. Even the outer layer was frozen, and all the pirate ships that just arrived couldn't move.
The Marines quickly fired their cannons and attacked the immobile pirates.
However, the Marine ships outside were also frozen.
Moreover, because the sea was frozen, the pirates conveniently got off the ship and charged toward the square.
The Marines naturally wouldn't just quietly watch as the pirates rushed into the square, and the entire bay was chaotic as the fight ensued.
While everyone was fighting, Hawkeye suddenly took a step forward.
After Hawkeye took this step, his aura suddenly changed. It became extremely fierce, like a sharp blade that was about to be unsheathed.
Kizaru saw this scene and smirked: "This is rare."
Even Akainu was a bit surprised: "That whimsical Hawkeye actually wants to take part."
To be honest, even if Hawkeye didn't participate in the Summit War of Marineford, the Marine wouldn't be able to do anything to him, let alone force Hawkeye to participate in the war.
"Are you seriously going to fight?" Doflamingo asked with a smirk on his face.
Hawkeye stared at the man standing on the bow before slowly pulling out his black blade Yoru and said:
"I'm just going to measure how far I am from the strongest man in the world."
Although he was known as the world's greatest swordsman, Whitebeard was known as the world's strongest man.
He wanted to see how far he was from the world's strongest.
As a swordsman, he naturally wanted to become the strongest person and reach a higher level.
