"Click."
With a crisp unlocking sound, the shackles fell to the ground...
"clatter."
The battlefield suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked up, holding their breath as they gazed into the smoke of the artillery fire.
Did it succeed?
"Wow—"
Suddenly, a terrifying burst of flame shot out from the cloud of smoke!
Within the black smoke, a massive channel of flames appeared!
From within that passage, a voice that could make everyone's hearts flutter with joy rang out!
"You've always been like this, Luffy."
"They completely ignore me and act recklessly."
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Su Mu's eyes lit up, and he happily looked down!
Suddenly, Ace was engulfed in flames, having been freed from his shackles.
He grabbed Luffy as he fell, stepping on the raging flames, truly like a king of fire!
"Ace!!"
Su Mu and Luffy both smiled and shouted in unison!
Chapter 16 Third Gear Against Sengoku
"Ace!!"
The shackles fell to the ground, Ace was saved, and completely liberated from that oppressive execution platform!
On the battlefield, when Sengoku saw the fiery passage, he gritted his teeth, his face extremely grim!
On the execution platform just now, it seemed as if the Navy was the passive party, watching Ace being rescued, yet not a single person was able to stand up and stop it!
The flames, accompanied by Su Mu's blue flames, blazed fiercely, transforming into a towering pillar of fire that poured down from mid-air and slammed into the ground!
Upon seeing this, the Whitebeard Pirates on the Marineford battlefield erupted in a thunderous cheer!
Ace has been rescued!
"Well done, both of them!"
"Straw Hat Boy, you really did it! From Impel Down until now, you're truly... a capable man!"
"Ace has been rescued! Thank goodness! Bowl cutter, Straw Hat Luffy, it's all thanks to you guys!"
"That kid with the blue flames is outrageous; he actually blocked two of Sengoku's attacks."
On the battlefield, the pirates looked at the unharmed Ace and praised Su Mu and Luffy without reservation!
"Luffy~ That's great, you finally got what you wanted~ Now all we have to do is evacuate safely..."
"Then you can go back and marry me~ Mmm~ I'm so shy~"
When Hancock saw Luffy engulfed in flames, her love for him was overflowing and undisguised.
She couldn't help but glance at Su Mu again, and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this guy didn't do anything to Luffy.
But I never expected that the kid who looked about the same age as Luffy would be so strong.
Meanwhile, Whitebeard also looked at the familiar pillar of fire, and despite his injuries, he smiled with relief, his eyes full of affirmation for Luffy and Su Mu.
It seems he made the right bet that the two of them could rescue Ace!
Objective achieved, now it's time to retreat!
Whitebeard's eyes suddenly focused, and he roared to the sky.
"My men!!"
"Ace has been rescued. Now, it's time for us to return to the New World!"
"oh!!"
Whitebeard's voice was so infectious that it instantly reached the ears of all the pirates.
Ace's escape from the execution platform means that their operation is half successful!
Next, as long as they withdraw from this land where countless marines and pirates have been killed or wounded, the Whitebeard Pirates will have won the Marineford War!
"Let's go! Let's go back to the new world!"
"Brothers, charge! Ace has been rescued, let's fight our way out!"
In an instant, all the pirates under his command responded in unison, and their morale soared to a terrifying level.
It can be said that the lifting of the shackles was a turning point in the Marineford War. It established the strategic policy of safely evacuating Marineford as the main objective, which had a significant impact on the morale of the Whitebeard Pirates.
"boom!!"
The flame, burning everything in its path, charged towards the naval soldiers in front!
Ace was reborn under these flames!
Luffy and Mr. 3 were held tightly by Ace, while Su Mu above them flapped his wings, looking at Ace's agile back with great joy.
Ace has been rescued, that's the first step. Next, all we need to do is protect Ace and get him out of the Marineford battlefield!
Su Mu laughed; his arrival was not entirely without purpose.
Although Ace was also freed from his shackles in the original work, it greatly depleted the Whitebeard Pirates' physical strength and energy.
But now, his appearance is providing Whitebeard with tremendous help.
This not only sped up the rescue of Ace, but also saved Whitebeard and the other division commanders a lot of energy.
After all, the Navy's attack focus has been shifting towards him and Luffy.
It wasn't just because of Luffy, but more so because of Su Mu's terrifying Conqueror's Haki and his limitless potential as an adversary.
The Navy unanimously agreed that this kid was still young, and if they did not stop him in time, he would become a huge problem for the Navy in the future.
Therefore, with Su Mu present, the time it took to rescue Ace was greatly shortened, and the Whitebeard Pirates' overall stamina was largely preserved.
"You bastard, kid, Marineford will leave your corpse behind!"
Looking down at the people below, Zhan Guo gritted his teeth and glared angrily!
He was furious that his attacks had been blocked multiple times!
After all, the one stopping him was none other than a clueless, inexperienced kid!
Su Mu was only twenty years old, and with his bowl-cut hairstyle, he looked quite young.
"Hey, old man, you've left my corpse behind. If you can do that, then come and try."
Su Mu stuck out his tongue at Zhan Guo and said with a disdainful look.
The old man kept saying he was going to kill him, and his threatening and urgent tone made him feel very uncomfortable.
Leave his body behind?
Now, let alone Sengoku, even if Akainu were added to the mix, Su Mu wouldn't be afraid!
It possesses the enhanced strength of Garp, the Devil Fruit abilities of Marco Hancock and Luffy, three Devil Fruit abilities, plus the world's strongest Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki that is even stronger than Garp's!
With his looks and his position, who is he afraid of? Isn't he just the absolute pinnacle of the battlefield?
But as he thought, if it were a life-or-death duel between Sengoku and Akainu, he would definitely lose. But for the two to determine a winner, they would have to fight for three days and three nights.
"You ignorant brat, today I'll show you what the navy is all about!"
Upon seeing Su Mu's demeanor, Zhan Guo's anger intensified.
Recalling all the trouble Su Mu had caused him along the way, and all the damage he had suffered, veins bulged on his forehead!
He transformed into a golden Buddha, and his giant fist was about to strike!
"Hey, who told you to call me a brat? I was afraid of you two hours ago, but what do I have to be afraid of now!"
"Look me in the eye, you little brat from the Warring States period!"
Su Mu shouted, and the blue flames on his body flared even more fiercely. Armament Haki instantly spread across his entire fist with an overwhelming force!
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them raised their fists and charged forward with terrifying force!
The giant golden fist clashed with the small blue fist, and in an instant, a huge shockwave reverberated through the air once again!
Its offensive power was in no way inferior to the shockwave of Whitebeard's opening punch.
Where the fists clashed, gold and blue intertwined, constantly devouring and dissipating from each other.
Even faintly, an arc of electricity comparable to a giant dragon burst forth, its power shaking the entire battlefield!
The heavy people below looked up again, and they had never felt two such powerful energies colliding with each other.
This collision was far more significant than their first encounter on the execution platform.
