"Everyone, watch out!! Oars Jr. is moving!!" One marine officer shouted urgently as many marines quickly withdrew from Oars Jr.'s proximity.
The broken platform of the Marineford shook as the gigantic figure of Oars Jr. raised his body off of the ground and lifted up the paddle ship that the Whitebeard pirates got onto.
Sengoku's eyes widened up sighting such a scene.
Oars Jr., with all his might, threw the ship to the outside sea.
*SPLASH*
However, Newgate remained firm on the plaza of the Marineford, standing proudly against Sengoku, who towered over the former with his body transformed into his Buddha form.
"""POPS!!!"""
The members of the Whitebeard pirates and the subordinate pirate crews all cried with the mighty back of Newgate facing them.
"Gurarara... what do you think, Sengoku?"
Sengoku glared at Newgate as his palm clashed against Newgate's naginata,
*BOOOOOOM*
"The ships of the World Government are holding your ship from escaping. Soon, your whole fleet will be sandwiched between our warships and the World Government ships. Don't think you are off the hook yet, Whitebeard."
However, Sengoku's attention was on the flying ship in the sky, Prominence, 'Grimheart... to think his involvement could alter the result to such an extent...'
Sengoku could tell right away that Rowan's latest attack is extremely dangerous. Along with Borsalino and Kuzan, whom Rowan knocked out previously, Sakazuki was now seriously injured.
'All three Admirals have been defeated by a mere rookie...' Sengoku couldn't help but grit his teeth as he clashed another blow against Newgate, '...along with the destruction of the Marineford itself...!! If we let them go like this after wreaking havoc here, the Marine will become nothing but a laughing stock!!!'
Sengoku blasted another pressure wave to Newgate,
"Impact Wave!!"
"Quake!" Newgate countered Sengoku's attack with a potent strike of his own, supported by the quake-inducing vibrations of his fruit ability.
*BOOOOOOOOOOM*
Newgate grinned, for he knew that the prolonged battle between him and Sengoku will lead to the advantage of his fleet—disregarding his death. After all, each time he and Sengoku clashed, the Marineford was the one who suffered the damage.

"Get out of my way, pirate scum!!"
The veins popped out of Baten's forehead as he tried to propel himself toward the Prominence, in the sky, however, was yanked back by Urouge's large hand.
*BOOM*
Baten was thrashed down onto the platform by Urouge, followed by,
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
the continuous punches that Urouge pummelled into Baten's fallen form.
"Urouge..." Dan muttered upon noticing the rage that burned within Urouge, "...Where's your crew? Did something happen to them?"
"It seems that nothing can be done here." Cavendish reported from the back, "It's weird! Every part of Prominence is functioning just fine, but we are barely moving from the spot!"
"Less Less fruit. Cancerous as always." From her spot, Carina, who recovered her energy to some extent, stated.
"Until Baten is taken care of, we are stuck here." Alfred commented as he adjusted his monocle.
"Well... this is troubling." Rowan stretched his arms as he felt his strength returning to his body, "Dan, you got bullets?"
"We got tons, captain." Dan responded by throwing a whole sac of it to Rowan, "What are you planning?"
"Kill Baten—never mind."
Rowan had to place the bullet sac down to the deck upon sighting one individual rapidly approaching them: Garp.
"Watch out for gramps." Ace scratched the back of his head with a sigh, "One blow of his, and this ship is done for."
Carina's face paled as she thought of the fortunes that the Grimheart pirates have been keeping in the Prominence, "Oh… hell no."
"Ek, the Marine Hero?!" Nami's eyes spun in panic as she wildly spun around the steering wheel, only to see that Prominence won't budge. "Come on, why won't you move!!"
"What's wrong with that man?" Rowan couldn't help but ask, "I thought he wanted Ace to survive. And now, he's trying to destroy our ship. Just what is he trying to do even?"
"Guahaha! The answer is simple, captain." Cavendish answered as he unsheathed his sword, "A hysteric old man who is trying to be both a grandfather of a pirate and marine at the same time... that's one hell of a choice to make!"
With the World Government ships, pirate ships, and Marine warships all tangled together, Garp couldn't afford to target them. However, Prominence, which was flying in the sky, was a different story.
"Even if you saved Ace, and are acquainted with Luffy, you've went too far. If, in the end, your escape is unpreventable, I will at least take your flying ship!!"
*BOOM*
Garp utilized geppo to propel himself toward the Prominence, in midair.
Expansion, emission, and hardening of Armament Haki. Infusion of Conqueror's Haki. Once again, Garp's indomitable technique, 'Xebec Fist,' revealed itself to the world once again. The only difference was this: it was directly being aimed at the gigantic frame of Prominence.
"Damn." Carmen couldn't help but mutter in a cold sweat, "We are stuck, and are forced to face that monstrous attack. How lovely."
"No point in complaining, Carmen. It is what it is." Rowan's eyes blazed in determination as the black lightning of Conqueror's Haki infusion crackled on his right fist.
"Don't worry, captain. We're in this together." Dan stepped up with his body crackling in blue electricity.
"I can still afford one more." Carina clenched her fists as she murderously glared at Garp.
"A chance for me to shine? Gladly." Cavendish stated coolly as the hollow-blue aura blasted off of him.
"My weapon may be broken, but I still have some spirit within me." Alfred stated as he raised his Haki-imbued arms up.
"Neigh~!!!" Farul stomped his feet ferociously.
"Mil Fleur, Gigantesco Mano." Robin sprouted a gigantic arm from the Prominence, before imbuing it with Armament Haki, "Same here."
"And we are helping as well." Ace stated with a grin as his whole body became hardened into steel, followed by the imbuement with Armament Haki hardening and emission.
Marco sprouted his phoenix wings wide open.
Jozu transformed his whole body into diamond and hardened it further with Armament Haki, not caring that he became mostly immobilized as the result.
Jinbe readied his stance as he pulled his Haki-imbued fist back.
"Whatever, I got to do something as well!" Letting go of the steering wheel, Nami flipped out a bo-staff of her own, earning a look from Sob.
Upon hearing their determinations, Rowan grinned as his heart began to beat rapidly for the final time.
*BA-BUMP*
"Alright, let's do this. It's all or nothing, eh?"
With Rowan's words being a cue, the people on top of Prominence began to unleash their attacks.
"Flash Style: Starry Night."
"Max 120 Million Volt: Electromagnetic Impact!!"
"Ignis: Hell Blaze!"
"Noble Phantasm: Gallant Durandal."
"Butler Smash!"
"NEIGHHHH!!!"
"Spank!!"
"Full Metal: Bull Blitz!!!"
"Phoenix Inferno!"
"Black Diamond: Cabochon Body!!"
"Fish-man Karate Secret Technique: Vagabond Drill!!!"
"Uh... staff slam!"
All the attacks converged into one and swirled as one overwhelming force that rapidly propelled toward Garp, who blasted the punch of his own,
"Xebec Fist!!!"
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
The incredible clash between Garp's attack and the joint forces of Rowan's group occurred.
However, to the shock of everyone, even with the combination of all those techniques, Garp seemed to be winning the clash.
And now,
"Ultrasonic."
Rowan vanished from the Prominence, toward Garp who was pushing his way against the joint forces of his friends' attacks, with his fist cocked back.
"Protect." On top of his prepared right fist, a thin transparent layer of substance was added. 'Expansion...! In order to match that punch, I have to mirror it!'
The golden emission that is surrounded by Rowan's unique Haki began to expand to a tremendous size, matching Garp's technique. Due to such a grand expenditure of Haki, Rowan felt his whole body screaming in pain and his eyelids beginning to drop down. Nevertheless, he had a job to do.
"In remembrance of my greatest teacher, Monkey D. Garp..."
Upon making his appearance right in front of Garp, Rowan slammed his fist onto Garp's,
"—Terraforming: Garp Fist!!!"
With the bright flash that initially occurred at an incredible scale,
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Garp's strongest punch began to collapse as the collision between two Conqueror's Haki infusion caused the black lightning to crackle all around and split the whole sky open.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Garp gritted his teeth to all his might, but was continuously pushed back by Rowan, whose attack was supported by his group.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
"Grimheart... Rowan...!!!" Garp shouted at his lungs.
"Listen, old man..." Rowan responded with heavy fatigue in his tone, "Take a tour in the sea and cool your head a bit, will you?"
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Garp was sent blasting down to the sea below.
*BOOOOOOOOOM*
Garp's collision with the surface of the sea caused the incredible eruption of water that caught up some World Government ships, pirate ships, and marine warships. Many ships were flipped, and the already-chaotic sea has become even messier.
Even worse, as Rowan's blast continued to drill into Garp consecutively even in the depth of the sea, the huge ripples in the sea generated high tides over and over, which continuously crashed down onto those ships.
"Watch your feet, everyone!!!" Vista shouted as he, with his exquisite mastery of swordsmanship, slew the countless marine soldiers over and over.
"All devil fruit users, retreat into the cabin!!!" One marine officer shouted in urgency, "The seawater entering the ship will severely weaken them; get them out of the crossfire!!!"
"*Huff* *Huff* *Huff*... *Huff*... *Huff*..." Left powerless and his right arm broken due to the recoil, Rowan's body began to drop from the sky, however, was instantly caught by Sob, who has already gone off of the Prominence and was waiting on the floating boat along with Job and Mob.
Subsequently,
"Urouge." Sob stated as Baten suddenly appeared in front of her and exhausted Rowan with murderous eyes.
"Less Less-"
"Inga Zarashi!!!"
Urouge, whose size has become enlarged, rocketed his body from the platform of the Marineford, and caught Baten off guard with a huge fist of his.
*BOOM*
Baten was sent crashing down to the Marineford, to which Urouge followed.
"A cockroach, and nothing more." Job stated in annoyance as the floating boat flew toward Prominence upon Mob's will.
Now,
*Thud*
With no strength and consciousness left in his body, Rowan was laid down on the deck of Prominence.
"...Holy, dude." Marco said in shock, "What was that just now?"
"He... copied Garp's technique." Jozu muttered in a cold sweat as he gazed at the rippling sea where Garp was sent crashing into.
"With due respect," Jinbe interrupted their sense of amazement with his gruff tone, "it seems that our friends below require some help."
Ace gazed at unconscious Rowan, who was now being treated by Dan, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes, before readying himself to jump below and engage himself against the enemies, "After we get out from here... I will ensure to pay back to you guys somehow. I owe you my life.
Thank you."
With Ace hopping off as a cue, Marco, Jozu, and Jinbe followed suit after nodding in gratitude.
"They got one hell of a stamina." Dan muttered with vivid fatigue in his tone.
Now, ignorant of all the chaos that was going on at the sea, Prominence peacefully sat up in the sky, with all members of the Grimheart pirates slouched or lying down in absolute exhaustion. However, Prominence still wasn't moving.
"And it won't take long before it begins to move again." Urouge stated with his body, now incredibly huge, towering over Baten's 4m height, who was bruised and bleeding over many spots.
"...Urouge was it?" Baten growled in a low tone.
"Finally," Urouge exclaimed with shaky voice, "You are looking at me."
"Less Less... *Huff* *Huff*..." Baten raised his hand up and sweated profusely from the prolonged use of his awakened fruit ability on Prominence, "Endless-"
*BOOOOOOOOM*
All of a sudden, before Baten could launch his technique to Urouge, Urouge blasted toward Baten and slammed his fist onto the latter's face, completely disfiguring it,
"Judgement!!!"
And Urouge wasn't done.
*BOOM*
A kick in the leg,
*BOOM*
An elbow to the chest,
*BOOMBOOMBOOM*
Continuous pummelling all over.
And now,
As Baten was sent crashing down onto the ground with the huge amount of blood splashed onto the ruins below him, Urouge jumped onto the sky with his huge fist clenched.
"An..." With a hazy vision, Baten muttered with his whole body having lost any strength to continue, "...angel...?"
"Before you enact your so called vengeful justice, face the karmic punishment that is directed to you beforehand!!!" Urouge shouted with ferocity as he began to descend toward Baten,
"Inga Zarashi!!!"
*BOOOOOOOM*
The clouds of dust covered the entire view as Urouge's punch impacted upon Baten and the whole ground below him.
"What a pitiful ending." Carina stated from the deck as she watched Urouge's victory over Baten, "Back in G-11, it was him who decided to be lazy and take time in fighting Rowan. And yet, he decides to blame us for the deaths of his underlings? After we miraculously made out alive with only four people in the crew?"
Carmen shook her head as she crossed her arms, "In the end, he exerted too much stamina in keeping Prominence stalled, and couldn't react against Urouge. Seems like the intelligence that Baten once had, is no more."
Dan grinned as he inspected the state of Rowan, who was unconscious, "Prominence is moving once again."
Indeed, the huge frame of Prominence regained its motion. Dan felt that their safe escape was practically guaranteed; all they had to do now, was to wait for the Whitebeard pirates
"Guahaha, it's our victory!"
Dan couldn't help but drop his jaw wide open upon hearing Cavendish's words.
"F****** Cavendish-"
Before Dan could finish his words,
"Grimheart is down!!! Aim for the ship and seize Nico Robin!!!" From the hazy mist beyond, even more number of World Government ships revealed themselves.
It seems that prior to their entry, they decided to divide into two units: main and backup. Main unit has been tangled into a chaotic mess with the marines and pirates, but backup unit was still intact.
""…F****** Cavendish."" Carina and Carmen muttered at the same time.
"The World Government…" Robin bit her lips and clenched her fists tight.
Cavendish was busy rubbing Farul's mane tenderly.
