The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 326 Almost there
The three admirals joined forces to attack, and even someone as strong as Whitebeard was gradually forced back under such a fierce attack.

Akainu was now attacking Whitebeard with all his might. His fists, which were filled with the power of magma, struck Whitebeard again and again, and each blow contained enormous power.

After fighting with Whitebeard for such a long time, Sengoku and Garp were exhausted. At this moment, the two looked at each other and retreated in tacit understanding.

The reason they chose to retreat was not only due to physical considerations, but more importantly, they had another idea.

They all had plans to retire, and felt that the future of the navy would eventually be handed over to the younger generation. So the great achievement of killing Whitebeard should be left to the younger generation of navy to strive for, so that they could take this opportunity to stand out and establish prestige in the navy.

After all, once Sengoku retires, the position of marshal will be between Akainu and Aokiji. Whoever can kill Whitebeard in this battle will undoubtedly have an advantage in competing for the position of marshal.

As for Kizaru, he had no intention of becoming a marshal. Seeing this situation, he simply withdrew from the battle, handing over this stage full of opportunities and dangers to Akainu and Aokiji, while he stood aside and acted as a bystander.

"Gulala, do you want to use my life as a stepping stone? Do you have the strength to do that???"

Whitebeard looked at the actions of the navy in front of him and knew what they were planning.

He laughed loudly towards the sky, his laughter revealing a sense of heroism and disdain.

He knew very well that the navy would not let him go easily, and that he would be in great danger today, but he would not just accept his fate.

In this case, it would not be a loss if he could take a general with him before he died. At least he could cause considerable damage to the navy, and also make this battle of his have a significant "result".

Whitebeard clenched the naginata in his hand, staring intently at Akainu who was still attacking him.

"Air shock!"

Whitebeard used all his strength to deliver this incredibly powerful punch.

In an instant, the air seemed to explode, producing an extremely powerful shock wave that swept directly towards Aokiji and Akainu.

The two men only felt a force like a tidal wave rushing towards them, which they could not resist at all. They were forced to retreat, trying to keep some distance and avoid the ferocious attack.

Whitebeard had no intention of giving up. He clutched the air with both hands, as if trying to control everything around him. Then, he roared again, "Bury me with you, Marine Headquarters!"

With his roar, the whole world seemed to be turned upside down and shook violently.

Immediately afterwards, a shocking scene took place. Marinford, a place that carries the long history of the navy and is like a holy place in the hearts of all navy, was neatly split into two halves by Whitebeard's terrifying power.

The extremely solid building collapsed in an instant, smoke and dust billowed up, bricks and stones fell everywhere, people shouted, and the scene was in chaos, as if the end of the world had come.

"How could this be?"

Many sailors looked at the tragic scene before them, their eyes reddened and they shed tears of grief.

The high morale suddenly dropped. They never imagined that the inviolable holy place in their hearts would be destroyed like this. For a moment, everyone was at a loss, immersed in sadness and shock.

"Cheer up! So what if we are destroyed!!!" Seeing this, Zhan Guo was anxious. He glared and shouted loudly, trying to wake up these depressed navy soldiers.

"As long as you are here, Marinford can be rebuilt!"

His voice echoed across the battlefield, filled with strength and determination. Encouraged by Sengoku, the navy's flagging morale began to recover. A fire reignited in everyone's heart, their eyes filled with fighting spirit. They gripped their weapons tightly, ready to continue fighting, for the glory of the navy and for the reconstruction of Marinford.

On the other side, Akainu saw that Whitebeard seemed exhausted after using that powerful move, and thought this was a great opportunity, so he launched an attack without hesitation.

"Big fire-breathing!"

His arm instantly turned into hot magma, and sprayed a torrent of magma towards Whitebeard. The magma was extremely hot, and wherever it went, the ground was instantly melted.

Aokiji was not to be outdone. He quickly elementalized his hands. The crystal clear ice element was wrapped in domineering aura, and combined with the power of the iron fist inherited from Garp, he launched his strongest attack.

"Ice Gloves."

The punch that Aokiji threw carried an extremely cold force, as if it could freeze everything in the world, and attacked Whitebeard.

Under the attack from the two, even Whitebeard, no matter how strong he was, found it difficult to withstand it, and his defense finally began to slacken.

Seeing this, Akainu would never let go of this opportunity.

"The dog bites the red lotus."

The lava turned into a ferocious dog head shape and bit Whitebeard's head fiercely. In an instant, half of Whitebeard's head was burnt by the high-temperature lava. He was seriously injured and his body was shaky.

At this moment, Whitebeard's vision became blurred. After his head was severely injured, he could no longer maintain his observation Haki, and his movements inevitably slowed down for a moment.

Aokiji saw this opportunity.

"Violent pheasant mouth."

Whitebeard was unable to dodge and was completely frozen.

When Akainu saw Whitebeard was frozen, a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He concentrated all his domineering power on his right fist, and then used all his strength to punch Whitebeard's chest hard.

This punch went straight through Whitebeard's chest, and blood gushed out instantly, dyeing the transparent ice layer red.

Whitebeard suffered such a severe blow that his life was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.

"Good job, lava boy."

Whitebeard, who had suffered such a serious injury, still had the energy to praise his opponent. Although his tone was a little weak, it still revealed a sense of heroism and open-mindedness, as if the fatal injury in front of him was not a big deal to him.

"Hmph~" After hearing this, Akainu just snorted coldly with a look of disdain on his face.

He was not willing to accept praise from a pirate.

In his eyes, pirates are all unforgivable villains who are incompatible with their navy. So even though Whitebeard is a famous and powerful figure, he simply disdains to accept the praise from his enemy.
