"Guurarara~"
"World, come to Marineford with me!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, showing no annoyance at World's resistance.
"Humph!"
"I've got some scores to settle with those Marine bastards!"
World snorted in response.
Although he had no intention of going to Marineford, he acknowledged Whitebeard's strength and knew he couldn't refuse.
However, as one of the veterans of the old era, he wouldn't openly admit it. Instead, he continued to act stubborn and unyielding.
It was as if he wanted to convey to everyone that his decision to go to Marineford was driven by his grudge against the Marines, not because he was afraid of Whitebeard.
Seeing World's reluctant agreement, Whitebeard nodded in satisfaction. He signaled Jinbei to open World's cell and set him free.
"No wonder the old man wasn't worried when he learned that the Ace brothers had been moved ahead of schedule. He was already prepared for this!"
Jinbei marveled at Whitebeard's planning and strategy. He was now even more convinced that Whitebeard's plan had a solid chance of success.
If he were in Whitebeard's position, he wouldn't have thought of this ingenious approach: attacking Impel Down first, releasing the prisoners, and then utilizing their strength to rescue Ace. The powerful prisoners provided valuable assets and increased the odds of successfully rescuing Ace.
As the chains clanked and Jinbei praised Whitebeard's foresight, the sudden noise echoed through the otherwise silent Eternal Hell, creating a jarring contrast.
Everyone in the vicinity was startled by this unexpected sound.
In addition to them, there were still survivors here?
"Whitebeard... old man!"
A deep voice resonated through the chamber.
Accompanied by the rattling of chains, a tall figure emerged from the pile of corpses within a cell. This figure approached the cell's iron railing.
Due to the dim light from the fire, it was difficult to discern the person's features clearly.
"What? Bullet, as a former member of the Roger Pirates, do you want to join the fight in Marineford against me?"
Whitebeard tilted his head slightly, directing his gaze toward the figure within the cell.
"Bullet?"
"Is it him?"
"He's still alive?"
Crocodile and the others were taken aback and became cautious.
Douglas Bullet, known as the "Heir of the Devil" and touted as the "successor to the Pirate King Gol D. Roger," was once part of the Roger Pirates. His power was immense, and even his fellow crew members acknowledged him as a "monster."
In the presence of everyone, Bullet remained silent for a long moment. Finally, the sound of chains breaking reached their ears. The closed prison door exploded with a deafening blast, and thick smoke billowed out, obscuring their view.
"Out!"
A solemn expression crossed Jinbei's face.
Out from the smoke and dust emerged a figure. Once fully revealed, they saw a middle-aged man with long blond hair, bare-chested, and clad in black pants.
"You want me to go to Marineford!"
Bullet declared, raising his head defiantly, his gaze locked onto Whitebeard like a sharpened blade. His eyes were filled with a strong desire for battle.
Boom!
A powerful Conqueror's Haki surged forth.
The surrounding cells creaked under the force of their collision. Everyone present felt the intensity of this clash, causing their breath to hitch, and a sense of solemnity filled their eyes. They realized that Bullet was even stronger than they had anticipated. His Haki alone was enough to validate his status as a member of One Piece's crew.
"Goo la la la~"
"Bullet, it seems you've forgotten your original struggles," Whitebeard chuckled.
As an old rival of the Roger Pirates, Whitebeard had battled against Roger and his crew, including Bullet, on multiple occasions.
Amidst their laughter, Conqueror's Haki erupted violently. The clash of two Haki forces created an invisible hurricane that raged around them.
Cang Dang! Cang Dang! Cang Dang!
The cell doors were battered by the Haki-infused air, swaying violently and producing a deafening cacophony.
As the Haki explosion subsided, the surroundings returned to stillness.
"Is this what it's like when the world's top powerhouses collide? It's truly beyond imagination!" the Evil King marveled in secret.
"This Bullet guy is even more formidable than before," Crocodile commented as he puffed on his cigar. His eyes gleamed with curiosity. "But why does Old Whitebeard still possess such strength?"
Crocodile wasn't surprised by Bullet's incredible Haki, given his prime age. However, he couldn't fathom how Whitebeard, at over 70 years old, still exhibited such extraordinary power.
"How is this even possible?" Crocodile muttered.
His incredulous gaze remained fixed on Whitebeard. Indeed, he wasn't the only one with such thoughts.
Ryder and World, both from the same era as Whitebeard, shared a similar sentiment of shock. Their experience had taught them the harsh reality of physical aging, yet Whitebeard seemed untouched by the passage of time.
"Old man Whitebeard, you still possess this kind of strength!" Bullet exclaimed with excitement.
His body trembled with anticipation, and his excitement seemed to surge within him. He had believed that with Roger gone and Whitebeard growing old, there was no one in the world who could challenge him. Yet here was Whitebeard, still exuding immense power.
However, Bullet quickly composed himself. With an excited roar, he charged toward Whitebeard. As he sprinted forward, his fist rose, enveloped in Armament Haki, and he struck with a powerful punch that ruptured the air.
"Goo la la la~"
Seeing Bullet approaching, Whitebeard laughed heartily and slammed his knife heavily into the ground.
"Bullet, if you lose, you'll be my son!"
