Time flew by, and it was already the end of September already.
Nagasawa now had 150,000 points, and he immediately spent 120,000 points to raise Tobirama's fusion rate to 67%.
Even with the 50% discount, he still required 12,000 points to raise the fusion rate by 1% once it reached 60% fusion rate.
The cautious Nagasawa naturally wouldn't spend all his points just to raise a few percentage fusion rate. He decided to keep 30,000 points.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Nagasawa still decided to try Whitebeard's challenge mission.
There were only twenty days left before the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack, and he could only receive around sixty thousand points from the weekly points.
He could only raise Tobirama's fusion rate to around 70%, which wasn't that much.
If he could reach 80% or 90%, Nagasawa would still consider waiting, but the difference of a few percent was not worth waiting for.
He also had to consider the consequences of failing the challenge. If he failed the challenge, it would take 35,000 points to retry the challenge mission.
He only received 20,000 points a week.
He had to save some points in case he failed.
Nagasawa opened the panel and clicked Whitebeard template. He then clicked the challenge mission.
[Do you want to start the challenge mission?]
"Yes."
Following Nagasawa's reply, Nagasawa instantly felt his vision go black. The dizziness immediately struck, and he fainted.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he awoke, there were so many people around him already.
There were all kinds of people. Some had huge bodies, but small heads, some of them had thick black beards, and some of them did not even look like a person.
However, the look on their faces was the same, worried.
A man with golden hair asked worriedly, "Pops, are you alright?"
He was the captain of Whitebeard Pirates' 1st Division, Marco the Phoenix.
Just now, Whitebeard's sudden silence scared them as they were on their way to rescue Ace, and the ship would soon reach Marineford.
"Gu ra ra ra ra." Nagasawa laughed and then pulled out all the needles on his body and threw them to the ground.
"More than alright. I've never been better!"
What Nagasawa did gave his sons a surprise, and they hurriedly caught whatever he had thrown away just now.
Nagasawa looked around and used his Color of Observation Haki to gauge everyone's strength and discovered that the Division Captains of Whitebeard Pirates were indeed capable fighters.
"Dad, you..." The Division Captains were considered skilled combatants in the New World, so they naturally had sharp eyes. In addition, they had been with Whitebeard for so long, so no one knew Whitebeard's state better than them.
Therefore, they soon discovered that something was wrong. It was as if Whitebeard's aura seemed to be different from before.
"Although I am not as strong as when I was young, I am in an excellent state right now." Nagasawa laughed again.
"Great, Pops' condition seems to be getting better. This time we can definitely save Ace." One of the Division Captains said excitedly.
The Division Captains had been part of Whitebeard Pirates since they were young, so they knew how terrifying Whitebeard's strength was at his peak.
If their Pops were at his peak, the Marines wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
But Marco had a worried look on his face. There was no way that his Pops could just recover from his illness out of the blue.

....................
Marine Headquarters Marineford.
At this time, Marineford was at its strongest in history!
Countless capable Marines from all over the place were called back to Marineford to deal with the upcoming war.
Marineford was a crescent moon-shaped island. At this time, there were a total of 50 warships to protect the headquarters of the Marines.
For the record, only 10 ships were dispatched, even for a Buster Call.
When there were only three hours left before the execution, Ace was dragged into the execution platform.
"No matter what happens, everything will be over in three hours! We will be the one emerging victorious!" An Admiral was making the final preparation.
To be honest, they were the ones who were afraid. Some new recruits had never seen how terrifying Whitebeard was.
At the frontmost of Marineford Bay, there stood the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Dracule "Hawkeye" Mihawk, who was hailed as the world's strongest Swordsman.
The Paw-Paw Fruit user, who was later turned into a killing machine, Bartholomew Kuma.
The String-String Fruit user, Donquixote Doflamingo.
The Shadow-Shadow Fruit user who once fought Kaido in the New World - Gecko Moria.
The Pirate Empress, who was hailed as the world's most beautiful woman, Boa Hancock.
Behind them was a horde of Marine soldiers and giants.
The giant forces were more than ten meters tall and held a gigantic sword in their hands like a mountain.
However, that was not even the Marines' full strength as there were three chairs right below the execution platform where the strongest force of the Marines sat, the three Admirals!
Sitting on the far left was Aokiji, the Ice-Ice Fruit user.
Sitting on the right, the one who had the smirk on his face with one of his legs crossed, was Kizaru, the Glint-Glint Fruit user.
Sitting in the middle, wearing a standard white Marine cap with a lowered head, and the one with his legs crossed was Akainu, the Magma-Magma Fruit user.
In order to make sure Ace would be executed as planned, the three Admirals personally guarded the execution platform.
Marine's live broadcast had already started. They wanted to use this execution to show the people in the world that this world belonged to the World Government and the Marine!
Whitebeard's era would come to an end! That was what they were trying to show the world.
Then Garp and Sengoku also came out.
Sengoku walked in front. He looked back at Garp and said:
"You're okay with this, right? I'm going to explain everything to the whole world."
Garp tried his best to not look at Ace who was kneeling on the execution platform, and said: "Suit yourself, I'm going down."
Then he went down.
Sengoku's face remained unchanged as he went to the execution platform.
Even if he knew that his best friend Garp was suffering, he still had to do this. This was his justice! The Marine's justice!
The Marine forces below were also puzzled. Why did the Sengoku go to the execution platform?
Even if it were Whitebeard himself who would be executed, the Fleet Admiral wouldn't go up personally.
