The ensign narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Vice Admiral Garp is right behind us. Take down this pirate group before Lieutenant General Garp arrives!"
"Yes!"
All the marines agreed in unison, drawing their weapons and taking positions at the front of the ship, aiming at the pirates in the distance.
The navy lieutenant said coldly, "Fire at fifty meters and shoot at thirty meters."
"Understood."
In an era where naval thermal weapons were prevalent, they rarely engaged in direct combat with pirates. Against typical pirates, they could easily handle them with artillery fire.
Clearly, Larson and Whitebeard had now become an "ordinary" pirate group in the eyes of this ensign.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
As they reached the fifty-meter mark, the naval warship's cannons fired violently at the pirate ship ahead.
The navy lieutenant watched the artillery fire erupt, already envisioning another pirate group torn apart by their cannon fire. A smile crept onto his face.
On the pirate ship, observing the incoming artillery, the little pirate exclaimed in fright, "Oh, my lord, the Navy is here! Shouldn't we take cover?"
Larson remained silent, but his expression was calm. The Sharingan in his eyes slowly transitioned from three magatama to the kaleidoscope.
In an instant, golden flames erupted around him. The flames quickly enveloped Larson and expanded dramatically. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a golden giant adorned in armor, wielding a gigantic golden sword.
Susanoo!
This was Larson's current trump card, allowing him to stand firm in the contemporary world!
Since last year, Larson's Sharingan had evolved into the Kaleidoscope, taking him ten full years to progress from three magatama to this form.
Whitebeard, standing behind him, regarded Larson's transformation with a serious expression. "This must be Larson's secret weapon," he thought to himself.
Is this the power of a Devil Fruit?
Seeing Susanoo for the first time, Whitebeard couldn't help but analyze it.
As the artillery fire approached the hull, Larson's Susanoo raised its golden giant sword and swung it forward.
A crescent-shaped slash shot forth, slicing through the artillery fire mid-air. While the slash neutralized the cannonballs, the remaining force of the attack barreled toward the Navy warship in the distance.
The ensign's smile vanished in an instant. One strike had cut through their artillery fire as if it were nothing and threatened to devastate their ship.
Finished!
Panic broke out among the navy crew on the ship. At this distance and speed, it was far too late for them to change their course.
But suddenly, a figure jumped in front of the incoming slash from the Navy ship, rushing toward it.
Clad in haki, he made a fist and launched it at the oncoming attack.
The seemingly unstoppable slash was intercepted by this individual in mid-air, using only his body!
After countering the attack, he landed on the Navy warship, and cheers erupted from his fellow soldiers. They were shouting one name.
"Garp!"
On the Navy warship, Garp, a black-haired man, gazed seriously at the pirates in the distance.
"vice admiral Garp, do you want to pursue the pirates ahead?" one of the crew members asked.
Garp rubbed his fists. "No need to chase them; they came here on their own."
On the pirate ship, Whitebeard had moved to stand next to Larson, observing the approaching navy warship. "Larson, that man is Garp; he is very powerful."
"I know."
Larson's expression grew serious. How could he not recognize Garp? He had read the newspaper about the naval hero Garp, who had defeated Roger and the Rocks Pirates last year.
He had not expected to come across Garp here; one could only say their luck had taken a turn for the worse.
The navy warship and the pirate ship were slowly drawing closer. Taking advantage of the moment, Larson queried, "Old White, who is stronger between you and Garp?"
Whitebeard pondered for a moment before replying, "I don't know, but his strength shouldn't be too different from mine."
Larson cast a sidelong glance at Whitebeard, who quickly picked up on Larson's unvoiced concerns. "I wasn't present during the war last year."
Understanding dawned upon Larson. This explained why the Rocks Pirates had been defeated, even with Whitebeard at his peak. The circumstances changed!
"Larson, let me take care of this," Whitebeard urged.
"I'll face him."
A faint smile appeared at Larson's lips as he added, "Being defeated by me, the vice-captain, will only enhance your reputation as captain."
"Gurararara!"
Whitebeard chuckled, appreciating the confidence. "Then I'll be waiting for your good news over here!"
At this point, the distance between the two ships shrank to just twenty meters, allowing them to see each other clearly.
Garp on the navy warship had spotted Whitebeard and frowned. "Whitebeard, what brings you to the East Blue?"
Garp's memory of Whitebeard still lingered from his days as a powerful member of the Rocks Pirates.
He shouted, "The Rocks Pirates no longer exist! What are you trying to accomplish out here?"
On the pirate ship, Larson answered on Whitebeard's behalf, "Our captain is no longer part of the Rocks Pirates. He is now the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates!"
While it was somewhat surprising to encounter Garp, Larson already had a plan in mind for handling the situation.
"Whitebeard Pirates?"
Garp repeated the unfamiliar name.
In this current world, it was just an unknown name for a pirate crew.
But very soon, this name would resonate with everyone!
The distance between the two ships closed to just ten meters. Larson retracted Susanoo back into his body, then leaped towards the navy warship.
"You all back off!"
Garp recognized that the earlier attack had come from Larson, and if he could execute a technique like that, then this pirate was indeed a powerful foe!
This kind of enemy was not something the naval soldiers could handle lightly, so Garp ordered his men to withdraw.
All the Navy personnel quickly followed Garp's command and stepped back. Garp faced Larson alone, preparing for a battle that would intrigue only the strongest.
Knowing Larson was formidable, Garp unleashed all his strength from the get-go, not holding back in the slightest.
Likewise, Larson understood the gravity of facing a figure like Garp, and he dared not relax. As soon as he landed on the warship, he quickly enveloped himself in Susanoo once again.
While Larson was confident in his defense, Garp was remarkably fast, even quicker than Whitebeard. He dodged Larson's attacks every time.
Frustrated, Larson found himself being outmaneuvered. In a moment of clarity, Garp spotted an opening in Larson's guard and, using his armed Haki, threw a powerful punch.
"Crack!"
The sound of breaking glass reverberated in Larson's ears.
He glanced at the area Garp had struck and noticed a crack forming!
After the punch landed, Garp quickly withdrew, eyeing Susanoo with a serious expression.
"Is its defensive power truly this formidable?"
His last blow had been delivered with full force, but even so, it could only leave a crack at best.
Larson's strength had impressed Garp!
But in the next second, no one expected that Susanoo would retract into Larson's body.
'Is it time to release?'
When Garp observed this, he immediately speculated that, like Whitebeard, he regarded Larson's Susanoo as a special Devil Fruit ability.
Suddenly, Larson's arms tensed, crossing in front of his chest. A white halo enveloped his fists.
Larson grinned. "Remember, I am the vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Larson!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his fists shot out to the sides.
A tremendous roar echoed, followed by the sound of shattering glass.
"Crack! Crack!"
Cracks appeared around where Larson's fists struck, rapidly spreading like spiderwebs.
Whitebeard's eyes widened in shock from a distance.
What the hell is this!?
did I consuming a fake Devil Fruit?
