"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of explosions resounded. Rain Flame bombarded Marco's body. Right when he thought that he could completely block the opponent's attack, he suddenly felt that he had lost control over his body. He felt so dizzy that he had a hard time staying awake.
Rain Flame's characteristic was Tranquility. It had the ability to weaken anything it touched to the point that it could almost stop a human's bodily functions.
Marco did not know this. Otherwise, he would not have used his own body to block Colonello's attack.
"Damn it!"
Marco couldn't help but curse as he couldn't move his wings for the time being. At this moment, he had already noticed that several azure light beams had already gone past him and headed straight for the Moby Dick.
"Stand back! Let me handle this!"
With just a glance, Whitebeard knew how powerful the destructive power of the light beam was. He took a step forward and gripped Murakumogiri tightly with both hands. Murakumogiri's blade was evenloped with the quake bubble before Whitebeard swung it toward the light beam, "What a cheeky brat... I am Whitebeard!"
The air in front of Whitebeard was broken. The violent power indiscriminately destroyed everything in its path at this moment. However, if Colonello's attack was that easy to repel, he wouldn't be an Arcobaleno in the first place!
Although the distance between him and Whitebeard Pirates was ridiculously far, he didn't care!
An excellent sniper would consider everything before shooting down their target. Not only the distance, wind speed, and error margin but also the target's reaction. He was up against a living creature, not a motionless target. Colonello was well aware about this, so he took Whitebeard and his men's reaction into consideration!
The real purpose of this shot was not to wear down Whitebeard and the Division Captain's strength or show off his strength or something!
As mentioned before, as a soldier, Colonello was well aware of what the war meant and what a sniper should do in the war!
Finish off the key target so that the situation went in his favor. Only by doing this would he be qualified to be called a qualified sniper!
And among Whitebeard Pirates, only Whitebeard and the Division Captains deserved to be called the key target.
However, it was unrealistic to shoot Whitebeard directly from such a long distance. After all, he was the strongest man in the world. It was unrealistic to want to shoot him from such a long distance.
Marco and Diamond Jozu could not be killed directly. The former had a tenacious vitality because of his Devil Fruit Ability, while the latter was a diamond man with an absurdly high defense. He wasn't bored enough to shoot a diamond, so Colonello's target was all the Division Captains aside from those two!
Whitebeard waved his naginata. Indeed, several beams of light were scattered, but the remaining beam of light split again at this moment and directly turned into more than ten beams of light that headed toward the Division Captains!
Seeing this attack coming towards them, the captains of Whitebeard's pirates also moved. Thatch used his Color of Arms Haki, Vista unsheathed his twin sabers, Blamenco pulled out a huge mallet, and Rakuyo swung around his spiked flail...
At this moment, every Whitebeard Pirate crew worked together to repel the Rain Flame's light beam. Their Pops tried his best to protect them, so they naturally had to protect the family behind them!
But would it be that easy to do so?
It was at this time that the second shot came. At this time, Marco had not recovered yet, so he could only watch as the beam of light flew past him. After getting past Marco, the beam of light exploded and split into hundreds of beams, and they went straight for each crew as if they had eyes of their own.
"Damn it, is there no limit to his power?" Thatch shouted as things got even worse. Originally, he thought that this ultra-far sniping would not be that powerful and should be easily blocked. However, the moment he came into contact with it, he found that he could barely handle the pressure of the light beam even though it had already split twice. Only his Pops knew how terrifying it was before the light beam split.
And now, he had no way to support the others!
"Everyone, hide behind me. Rose Round Dance!"
Vista quickly swung the two swords in his hands, and a large number of rose petals flew out. Each of these petals was a powerful slash wave, blocking all the dozen beams aimed at him and the people behind him. He panted as it took everything he had to block these beams of light.
"Bang! Bang!"
Explosions resounded one after another. Even with all Division Captains' joint effort, it was difficult for them to repel the second shot completely. More importantly, if they could repel the second shot, the first shot that targeted them earlier would pose a threat to them!
"All of you, get out of the way!" A tall, muscular man with a braided back ponytail appeared in front of everyone in a flash. His eyes were fixed on the incoming beams of light, and he did not hesitate to swing his long sword, which was enveloped in Color of Arms Haki.
"Get out of the way, Blenheim!"
At this moment, the Rakuyo suddenly saw a beam of light approaching Blenheim from a tricky angle. In fact, this angle was not too tricky, but...
When Blenheim heard his comrade's shout, he had no time to use the weapon in his hand to block the beam of light. He had no choice but to dodge. However, he was in this tricky situation because he wanted to protect his comrades in the first place!
How could he retreat?
"How could I... let you attack my... sons like this!"
"Boom!"
At the critical moment, Whitebeard took a step forward and blasted out a shockwave punch that collided with the light beam! A deafening sound covered up the sound of a sword breaking.
Whitebeard managed to fend off the light beam directed at Blenheim, but the weapon in Blenheim's hand was broken by the impact of the other light beams.
Then, the blue Rain Flame pierced through his body!
