Bab 246: 245 The end of the war
After hearing Blackbeard's words, Whitebeard also smiled a little.
He responded, "If what you're saying is true, then I might consider sparing you."
"Really?" Blackbeard exclaimed in sudden surprise.
Whitebeard looked serious and couldn't help but glare at him, "Of course, what I say, Whitebeard, is never just empty words."
"Alright! I can prove it to you," Blackbeard replied quickly.
Blackbeard was surprised by what Whitebeard said because he knew Whitebeard very well.
Indeed, Whitebeard has never spoken a lie in his life. Once he says something, he means it with full commitment.
During the Summit War, Whitebeard used all his power to rescue Ace.
He not only forfeited his position as the leader of the Four Emperors but also sacrificed his life, even though it didn't appear to be a definitive death at the moment.
Despite this, Blackbeard still had great trust in him.
Since Whitebeard said it personally, Blackbeard harbored no doubts.
However, during the recent war, this area suffered significant damage.
Even Blackbeard's ship at sea was swept away, and the fruits Blackbeard had prepared beforehand were lost.
"Oyaji, there's no suitable fruit here at the moment. Let's first locate the right fruit. I know of someone on the island who possesses a very rare fruit"
In this moment, Blackbeard casually addressed Whitebeard as "Oyaji," a term that felt unstrained and natural, as if they were not enemies.
"Oh? What kind of fruit is it?" Whitebeard expressed his curiosity.
"Water Film Fruit. With this ability, one can even navigate the sea for an extended period"
Blackbeard quickly replied.
"Well, that's a bit interesting. If that's the case, I'll trust you this time"
Following the truce between Whitebeard and Blackbeard, Whitebeard grabbed Blackbeard and soared directly into the sky.
"Hey, Oyaji, what's going on? Are you planning to throw me into the sea?"
Blackbeard exclaimed, suddenly being grabbed and he was also frightened.
After all, Whitebeard hadn't explained anything, just unexpectedly grabbed him.
"Quiet." Whitebeard said lightly.
Due to the massive waves generated by Whitebeard earlier, the four Moby Dick ships docked on the shore were swept away. Now, Whitebeard was searching for those ships.
After fixing his attention on the ships, Whitebeard flew over.
The relentless gusts of wind struck Blackbeard repeatedly, leaving him uneasy and realizing that Whitebeard was truly a force beyond mortal reckoning.
"Oyaji!"
Several lookouts on the ships shouted as soon as they spotted Whitebeard.
Whitebeard land down on the deck, tossed Blackbeard to the ground, and ordered:
"Bring out the seastone handcuffs and put them on him."
As one of the Four Emperors, Whitebeard managed to obtain a few seastone handcuffs, although they were a rare commodity, even for the Marines.
"Yes, Oyaji!"
They swiftly retrieved the seastone handcuffs and quickly locked them on Blackbeard.
Blackbeard immediately fell to the ground due to his weakness, and his fruit power was unusable.
"Oyaji, is he Blackbeard? Why not just kill him?" a crew member asked.
"He's still my son, after all," Whitebeard replied.
Following that, Whitebeard quickly commanded them to stir the ship. Simultaneously, he used the force of the vibrations to generate small waves, steadily pushed the ship forward.
Shortly, all the ships returned to the shore, except for those belonging to the Blackbeard Pirates.
"You go down and quickly take Vane to the boat to treat his injuries. I'll go check on the others,"
Whitebeard instructed them.
Afterward, Whitebeard carried Blackbeard and flew down from the sky. Near the town, in the forest, he witnessed the aftermath of the intense battle.
"Marco, are you okay?" Whitebeard quickly spotted Marco and noticed some wounds on his body. He swiftly flew over.
"Oyaji, did you defeat Blackbeard? We're all good here"
Marco said cheerfully upon seeing the captured Blackbeard.
Whitebeard's gaze swept around, and all members of the Blackbeard Pirate had been subdued.
Nevertheless, Marco and the others were all injured to varying degrees. Despite their resilience, including Marco and Jozu along with other commanders, they were not unscathed.
Even Vista was seriously injured. Clearly, he was still locked in a fierce battle with Shiryu of the Rain. In the end, he had to rely on other commanders to defeat him.
Nevertheless, injuries were not a big issue, and fortunately, there were no casualties. Whitebeard believed his commander had done a good job.
Furthermore, in this battle, there was still one member of the Whitebeard Pirates who did not join the fight, and that is Edward Weevil.
Edward Weevil had fallen asleep on the ship before the incident, but Whitebeard thought it was also good.
This allows Marco and the others to hone their skills further. If Edward Weevil had joined the battle, they might have had a more significant advantage.
In this way, there is no hard fight in the conflict between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Blackbeard Pirates.
Furthermore, it is precisely through this intense battle that Marko and the others can be tempered, continually testing the results of their special training.
Now, it appears that Marco and the others have performed exceptionally well, and their strength has undergone a significant improvement.
By this point, Shiryu and the others were already subdued, and witnessing Blackbeard being restrained with seastone left them disheartened.
"Even the captain failed? It looks like we really made the wrong choice"
Pizarro couldn't help but remark.
"Hey, don't talk about it now; regret won't change anything"
Shiryu shook his head, showing no sign of fear.
"Oyaji, how do you plan to deal with them now?" Marco asked.
Whitebeard glanced at these people. While they were undoubtedly powerful, he deemed them unworthy to become his sons.
However, Whitebeard didn't want to resort to killing them all. The present circumstances made it regrettable to abandon them, and it felt unsatisfying.
"Restrain these people first and bring them all to the ship," Whitebeard commanded.
Since there weren't too many seastone handcuffs, Diamond Joz sealed their hands and feet with diamonds.
After getting them on the ship, Jozu arranged a bucket for each of them, allowing more than half of their bodies to be submerged in sea water.
This way, seawater can serve as a substitute for seastone, limiting their abilities.
The battle between Whitebeard and the Blackbeard Pirates reached its conclusion. Except for Blackbeard and Sanjuan Wolf, everyone else was locked up on the ship.
The commanders of the Whitebeard ship also returned to rest, leaving only Marco with Whitebeard. Dealing with Sanjuan Wolf now is more difficult.
His huge body makes it hard to restrain him whatsoever.
