Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

Whitebeard took a few steps forward and grinned, "Yes, you're surprising me more and more."

He looked so weak before, where did the Conqueror's Haki that punch just now go?

He was practically immortal.

This inexplicable regenerative ability reminded him of Kaido.

Unparalleled resilience!

Most importantly, Whitebeard felt that the power in his body was fading away, as if it were afraid!

It's even more effective than Conqueror's Haki.

Garp was still cursing.

Does this brat even know what kind of monster he's facing?

"But I can't just let Grandpa get beaten to death by this crazy uncle."

Luffy looked at Garp seriously and said, "You'll die, right?"

A powerful, entangled being is immortal and extremely destructive.

All of these terms are attributed to Whitebeard alone.

Whitebeard is like a big boss here now.

Luffy's gaze swept around.

The surrounding vice admirals have already ordered the navy to retreat in an orderly manner, which shows the current situation.

He also heard what Garp and Shiki were saying.

If Whitebeard's weakness is only Conqueror's Haki, then the only two veteran admirals in the Navy who pose a threat to him now are Garp and Sengoku.

Although the mid-generation admirals possessed destructive Logia-type Devil Fruits, none of them had Conqueror's Haki.

"Only Conqueror's Haki can work; in other words, only someone capable of becoming a match for Whitebeard,"

Luffy clenched his fist, and black and red lightning once again crackled from between his fingers. "Now it's just us, isn't it?"

He stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Garp, white steam and black lightning intertwining around him.

Garp sensed the immense life force emanating from Luffy, and grinned.

"I have indeed raised a fine grandson."

"Well, Grandpa, you can't stop me anyway. I'm a pirate, and pirates are the freest."

Click.

A tremor came from not far away.

Luffy and Garp looked in the same direction at the same time.

"Don't waste your time."

"Stop me!"

Whitebeard knelt on one knee, Murakumo Kirito was stuck in the ice beside him, his hands gripping his head tightly, the muscles on the intact half of his face were twisted, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.

"Able to speak, and also able to control their actions,"

Karp's eyes narrowed. "It seems a little different from the situation with Rocks back then."

After Rocks turned to the dark side, he was completely consumed by madness and a desire for destruction, and almost lost all his reason.

Whitebeard now appears to be physically driven, but his consciousness is still struggling.

"Is it because of the Conqueror's Haki that Nika just released?"

Luffy seemed to be deep in thought.

Everyone saw what just happened.

The undead monsters of the Knights of God were all reduced to ashes and vanished without a trace under the impact of that overwhelming aura.

Even the monster that transformed Whitebeard into this form was driven back.

Whether he's dead or not is unknown, but he's definitely left this place.

Whitebeard's current form is indeed different from his original all-black demon form.

Only half of his body was corroded by black patterns and a decaying aura; the other half remained unchanged, and his complexion was much better than when he was sickly.

"Using the ultimate Conqueror's Haki, concentrate it into a single strike and unleash it,"

Karp cracked his wrists, the bones popping. "This is our only chance to stop him."

Fight alongside your pirate grandson against an out-of-control emperor of the old era?

It was truly a novel experience; I never imagined it in my life.

Garp, who had just taken a step, suddenly stopped and subconsciously frowned.

Having previously clashed head-on with Im, and then unleashing a series of Conqueror's Haki attacks against Whitebeard, the burden on his no-longer-young body was simply too great.

"Grandpa, you should rest and recover your strength first. Your body can't take it anymore from constantly using it."

Luffy grinned and said, "I'll go and meet this old man first!"

Before Garp could react, he stomped his foot, causing a burst of white flames, and his figure transformed into a streak of light as he charged toward Whitebeard!

"You brat, I don't want to be taken care of like this by you."

Garp's expression froze, a mixture of exasperation and amusement.

But we have to admit, Luffy was right.

He did need some time, even just a few breaths, to regroup and adjust the disordered energy and domineering aura within his body.

As I get older, my battery life isn't what it used to be.

Garp sighed inwardly.

"Kurarararar! Stop me, you straw hat brat!"

Whitebeard appears to be conscious, but he cannot control his body.

"I can sense something within you that I fear!"

What you fear?

Does this refer to Nika?

Luffy's mind raced.

"Try it and you'll see!"

Luffy's eyes sharpened, and he quickened his pace, closing in on Whitebeard in a flash.

boom!

As Luffy approached Whitebeard, his right arm rapidly extended, its surface covered with a thick layer of Armament Haki and leaping black and red lightning.

A gigantic black fist, wreathed in flames and lightning, slammed fiercely toward Whitebeard's face!

Whitebeard neither dodged nor evaded; his intact left fist also condensed a milky-white vibrational aura as he met the attack head-on!

Two fists collide!

With a soft "plop," a series of crackling sounds echoed around them.

The situation is completely different from before.

Whitebeard no longer looks sickly like before.

"Damn the World Government!"

Sengoku's expression was grim. He glanced at the warships that had been affected by the blast not far away; the warships had almost cracked apart.

Under normal circumstances, the Navy should be chasing after the Whitebeard Pirates right now, and there's a high probability that the sick and weak Whitebeard should be left here.

So what have those guys from the World Government been doing since the very beginning?

The Navy's elite forces were of no use at this moment; the sickly Whitebeard became a troublesome figure that only Garp and those with Conqueror's Haki like him could handle.

It seems the World Government is the real mole!

The Warring States period already understood!

The Five Elders initially refused his request to fight, saying they wanted to maintain the balance of the sea, but later they agreed.

So this is how they maintain it!

They'd rather suffer heavy losses at the hands of the Navy than let the Whitebeard Pirates escape?!

Isn't this just making fun of him as if he were the founder of the Warring States period?!

"That kind of domineering aura,"

Luffy's expression was solemn. In some ways, Paramecia-type Devil Fruits are the most destructive fruits.

Someone like Whitebeard, who developed the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to its fullest potential, has the power to turn the world upside down.

The stalemate continues.

A continuous stream of domineering power is being inputted.

"efficient."

Luffy's heart skipped a beat.

His own domineering aura invaded Whitebeard's body, as if it could assimilate him.

He couldn't explain the principle behind it either.

"Ahhh!"

Whitebeard let out a painful roar, his body trembled slightly, and the force of the tremor suddenly intensified!

Luffy's expression changed slightly. The recoil from his fist suddenly increased by several orders of magnitude. His huge rubber arm was shaken and bent backward, and he flew backward uncontrollably.

Whitebeard didn't lose consciousness; he simply lost control of his body.

But the combat experience ingrained in his bones, the use of Haki, and the activation of Devil Fruit abilities have almost become instincts.

Seeing that the vibration was not effective in a direct confrontation, he took the next step almost without hesitation.
