The most courageous pirate hunter

They can portray someone as as insidious as possible, capable of doing all sorts of things, both logical and illogical.

Therefore, in Rayleigh's view, Ace had simply gone from the wolf's den to the tiger's den. Even if Whitebeard had made some kind of deal with him, Rayleigh still felt uneasy.

"retreat!!!"

Whitebeard didn't think that far ahead.

Now that Ace has been rescued and Sengoku is dead, this war can be put to an end. There is no need to increase casualties, after all, these are his most beloved sons.

"Retreat as ordered."

"Ace has been rescued."

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!!"

The Whitebeard Pirates changed tactics and began to gradually withdraw.

But how could the Navy's high command let the Whitebeard Pirates leave like that? They hadn't even managed to capture several of the Whitebeard Pirates' key figures, while they themselves had lost a Marine Admiral. They had expended so much manpower and resources and suffered so many losses. How could they not try to recover some of their losses?

“Leave them.”

The two Elders gave the order, and the Elder with the samurai sword even took action, unleashing a massive slash at Whitebeard from a distance, creating an unstoppable force wherever it went.

It was even more terrifying than Mihawk's previous slashes.

A true master swordsman.

"Kula la~"

Whitebeard's spirit was better than ever before. Without any worries, he could do whatever he wanted. He clenched his fist and slammed it from a distance, shattering the air in pieces. He immediately blocked the slash.

"Canine-toothed Red Lotus".

"Whitebeard, you won't be leaving."

"Sharp-tongued."

Sakazuki and Kuzan attacked again. Whitebeard threw a punch to block, but immediately coughed up blood and staggered back a few steps, his face flushed. Faced with the combined attack of three powerful figures, he was instantly at a disadvantage.

But at this critical moment, another accident occurred.

Buzz! ! !

Suddenly, everyone on the battlefield looked up, their ears ringing, making it difficult to breathe and incredibly oppressive. Suddenly, the sky, crackling with lightning and thunder, tore apart, and a large shadow fell rapidly.

The navy personnel who witnessed all of this were utterly horrified.

Some veteran naval officers immediately recalled that twenty years ago, a figure came to Marineford alone and almost razed the city to the ground.

Ultimately, they were able to defeat their opponent only by having Garp and Sengoku join forces.

"What a joke."

"Hey, hey, hey, isn't that a bit much?"

"Fufufu, could it be that ruthless person?"

Many people's hair stood on end as they watched the island getting closer and closer to crash down, thinking it was all a fantasy.

It's really unbelievable.

"How could an island have fallen down?"

What is happening to the world?

"Possessing such a catastrophic power, there is only that legend on the high seas."

The whole world was stunned.

Because that's a scene you can't even dream of, how could it be the power of a human being? Visual perception is a gift!

Chapter 291 [Hermes: Let's Ambush a Few More Waves]

Different space.

Let's turn back time a little bit.

Ace was completely bewildered when he was rescued, but he quickly recognized these people, and his face visibly turned resentful.

Luffy was beaten into a vegetative state by these guys and hasn't woken up yet.

They should be enemies.

Why did you save him?

Or are you trying to use him to threaten your father?

"Hahaha~"

"The Warring States period is over!"

Burgess looked at Sengoku lying in a pool of blood outside, clearly dead, his biceps bulging with pleasure. Damn it, that double-cross made him spend a lot of time in Impel Down.

Those were unforgettable days.

It's a pity I didn't get to finish the job myself.

Apart from Lucci and Bruno, everyone present hated Sengoku and wanted to tear the old man to pieces, until Hermes also entered the alternate dimension.

"BOSS, that was well done."

"The plan worked!"

"Jie Jie~"

"My thoughts have finally been clear!"

Hermes also looked outside. The Five Elders and Steelbone Kong were not far away. Unfortunately, he was not stupid. He knew to kill them and run away, not giving them a chance to gang up on him.

Moreover, once Sengoku died, Hermes felt that a certain knot in his heart was gone.

I feel more energetic and refreshed than ever before.

"You are the King of Hunters?"

As soon as Hermes finished speaking, Ace spoke up, his voice filled with no gratitude but rather with undisguised hostility.

I'm quite certain.

They're the same kind of people as Wang Lufei—brainless idiots.

"This kid seems to be very hostile towards us."

"Or we could just kill him."

Hody Jones, always eager for chaos, inexplicably disliked Ace.

This bastard came in with a long face; anyone who didn't know better would think their Imperial Organization was in debt.

"You're the one who made Luffy a vegetable!"

Ace ignored Hody Jones's words, his eyes fixed on Hermes, as if he would rush up and bite Hermes as soon as Hermes was sure of him, his resentment was immense.

"Jie Jie Jie~"

"That idiot and hothead better not wake up, or I'll kill him every time I see him. So, as his older brother, do you want revenge?"

Hermes stepped forward and stood in front of Ace, looking down at him.

The world is cold and indifferent; there are so many idiots this year.

We haven't even figured out the situation yet.

"You'd better kill me, or I'll definitely kill you once I escape."

Whether it was a lack of intelligence or a sense of impunity, Ace wore a completely fearless expression and blurted out his innermost thoughts.

All of this demonstrates their fearlessness in the face of death.

"Snapped!"

Hermes wasn't going to tolerate that. He slapped Ace across the face, sending him sprawling face-first into the dirt, coughing up blood. His right cheek was swollen and red, and he even spat out a few teeth.

My mind is still buzzing.

"I've never seen anything so stupid."

Hermes, too lazy to waste words, looked at Ace and pondered whether to kill him here, but then thought better of it; at the very least, one should keep one's word.

Perhaps we can take a roundabout approach.

For example, he could return this thing to Whitebeard, and then find an opportunity to kill him without anyone noticing. As long as Whitebeard is alive, once he figures out how to eat the second Devil Fruit, he can kill Whitebeard as well.

He can hit whoever he wants now.

"Bah~"

Ace stood up straight, staring at Hermes with red eyes.

But he was met with another slap from Hermes. It took Ace several minutes to recover, but he remained defiant and continued to stare intently at Hermes.

Snapped!

Snapped! !
