One Piece: Groudon the Beasts

Chapter 238 Blackbeard, you've been sentenced to death!

Sabaody Archipelago, broadcast on television screens.

"Whitebeard has been stabbed!"

"So many big bears!"

"Admiral Akainu has made his move!"

When the pesky clown Buggy disappeared, the battlefield scenes reappeared on the screen, especially the scene where Whitebeard was assassinated by his own men.

Immediately afterwards, Whitebeard shattered the icebergs on both sides of the island, clearing a retreat route for his men, and then personally rushed to the battlefield!

The navy has also begun its counterattack!

"Meteor volcano!"

Countless giant molten lava fists rained down from the sky, inflicting devastating damage on the pirates and even destroying the Moby Dick.

And there were pacifists who fought their way out from behind the battlefield!
The scales of victory are gradually tipping!

Groudon.

"The Whitebeard Pirates are doomed."

Goode surveyed the battlefield.

As Whitebeard continued to be wounded, the pirates' defeat was imminent. Even with the prisoners of Impel Down joining the pirate ranks, they were still unable to reverse the tide of the battle.

The navy's morale is high.

Akainu, in particular, went head-to-head with Whitebeard like a god of death, holding his own and even inflicting heavy damage on Whitebeard.

The rescue of Ace remains uncertain, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, Ace will inevitably die on the execution platform.

"You can't do without a straw hat, can you?"

Goode frowned.

Due to his position, he did not intend to assist the Whitebeard Pirates. It would be better for him if more pirates died; he only needed the captains and other elites.

Suddenly, his subordinates gasped in surprise.

"Lord Goode, look at the execution platform!"

"Um?!"

Good picked up the binoculars.

Flames burst forth on the execution platform.

It's Ace!
His sea stone handcuffs were removed!
"Who did it?!"

The fact that Ace's handcuffs were unlocked right under Sengoku's nose, even though Sengoku's attention was focused on the battlefield below, was a truly explosive turning point.

Goode was stunned, and soon saw the ragtag group standing with Fire Fist Ace, dressed in executioner's uniforms.

Mr.3!

Goode didn't recognize Mr. 3, but he could guess his identity. He was the only one among the pirates who had the ability to pick locks.

The Warring States period could not have foreseen this, nor would it have focused its attention on its own people; it simply didn't have that much energy.

"This guy is really something!"

Good found it somewhat amusing.

Although he was a nobody, he played a crucial role.

Without a doubt, the MVP of the game!

"Ace is saved!"

The morale of the pirates soared instantly!

Freed from the constraints of the Seastone, Ace coughed up blood and, facing Sengoku's furious punch, jumped off the execution platform with Mr. 3.

"Pillar of Flames!"

The raging flames instantly cleared a large open space on the battlefield.

With his biggest concern gone, Whitebeard began to exert his full strength.

"Whitebeard Pirates, I am now issuing the final [Captain's Order]!"

"I'm saying goodbye here. Everyone, retreat immediately. Make sure you survive and return safely to the new world!"

"I am a remnant of the old era, and the new era has no ship to carry me!"

A glistening tear appeared at the corner of the white-bearded man's eye, and his left arm stretched behind him, his bulging muscles bulging with menacing veins.

The world's strongest man is going to fight desperately.

"Qiang!"

The heavy punch slammed into the air in front of him, causing countless cracks to spread, and the terrifying impact swept across the entire headquarters fortress!

"Boom!!!"

The fortress collapsed, and huge cracks spread across the walls.

"Wow ah ah ah!!!"

"Whitebeard has gone mad!"

"Don't back down, take down Whitebeard!"

"He's on his deathbed!"

The officers roared and charged at Whitebeard fearlessly, bombarding his body with cannonballs, bullets, and swords!
Instead of attacking Whitebeard, the three admirals turned their attention to the fleeing pirates, especially Akainu, who set his sights on Ace.

The moment Ace, unable to bear the humiliation of Whitebeard, turned to face Akainu.

The outcome was already decided! In a direct confrontation, Ace was easily defeated by Akainu, and most of his body was swallowed by magma. Although he did not die immediately, such severe injuries would not last long.

This war ultimately ended in failure.

Goode's expression was cold and devoid of sympathy.

If Ace hadn't turned back, he could have survived, but there are no "ifs." Everyone has to pay the price for their actions.

At this moment, behind the naval fortress, a gigantic giant is hiding, its size even comparable to the fortress itself.

The Blackbeard Pirates have made their move!
"lets go!"

"Mind your manners. We represent the Groudon Company now. Don't let people mistake us for villains!"

"Yes, Chairman!"

The Hoenn fleet raised its sails and rapidly approached the Navy Headquarters.

In the center of the battlefield, Whitebeard, enraged to the extreme, fought Akainu. After having half of his head blown off, Whitebeard severely injured Akainu, who then fell to the ground.

The aftershocks of the battle split the entire island in two, completely dividing the battlefield and blocking the navy's pursuit.

At this moment, the Blackbeard Pirates finally appeared, standing on the execution platform, overlooking the battlefield below.

"Hahaha!!!"

Blackbeard laughed wildly.

"Dad, it's so good to see you one last time before you die!"

"Tikki!"

Whitebeard stared at Teach, his aura undiminished despite losing half his head; in fact, it had intensified.

This guy is the only one I must kill!
"Hey, look at the harbor!"

Just then, the navy roared.

A red fleet appeared in the direction of the port!

"It's the Beasts Pirates!"

"Wait, they're not flying the Beasts Pirates' flag!"

"That's the Groudon logo!"

All the warships' sails were printed with a simplified Groudon design, the little red monster standing in lava.

Groudon Real Estate Company!

The war stopped at that moment.

Goode was dressed in a black suit, with a white overcoat similar to those worn by the navy, featuring flame patterns on the bottom and the words "Hoenn" printed on the back.

The subordinates were all dressed in suits and ties, with the company logo on their chests. They looked more like a group of corporate elites than evil pirates.

"He's finally shown up, Blackbeard!"

Goode led his men into the battlefield, passing through the Whitebeard Pirates without even glancing at Marco and the others.

Let's catch up after we finish our business.

The ground extends, creating bridges across the Great Rift Valley.

Goode came to Whitebeard's side.

"[Disaster] Good!"

Zhan Guo looked at Gu De, veins bulging on his forehead.

"What are you doing here?!"

"Get out of my way, Navy!"

Goode rebuked him coldly.

"I've come here to collect a debt!"

"Just keep quiet and watch. If you want to start a war with us, we don't mind fighting you!"

"Also, my current identity is that of the chairman of Groudon Corporation. Please call me Chairman Goode!"

The Warring States period was ashen-faced.

The other party's blatant intrusion into the Navy Headquarters is a serious crime!
Goode looked up at Blackbeard.

"Blackbeard, you murdered Thatch, a resident of our company's Hoenn community on Beehive Island, didn't you?!"

"Hahaha, so what!"

Blackbeard's laughter was low and deep, his eyes filled with gloom.

The most troublesome guy has arrived!
He knew Goode had already arrived at Sabaody Archipelago, but he guessed that the other party was there for the war, not to hunt him down.

Not to mention chasing them all the way to Marine Headquarters!
It was just killing one person, and this incident also benefited the Beasts. Without this war, the Whitebeard Pirates would still be the Beasts' biggest obstacle.

The disaster victim should be grateful to him.

"very good!"

Good picked up a clause and read it aloud in front of the three parties: "According to the Residents' Terms and Conditions of the Hoenn Community under the Groudon Corporation, Chapter 1, Article 1, anyone who kills within the Hoenn Community shall be sentenced to death!"

"Blackbeard, did you understand?"

Goode ripped off his coat, unleashing an astonishing burst of Conqueror's Haki. His intense killing intent enveloped the Blackbeard Pirates like a blade!

"You've been sentenced to death!"
