The Navy was destined to win this war, but the Hunter King's intervention caused them to gradually lose their advantage and become powerless to turn the tide. One can imagine how much hatred the Five Elders felt.

Considering all the things Hermes had done before, he wouldn't be spared even if he died thousands of times.

Chapter 296 [Another King of Hunters]

Wow! ! !

The purplish-white flames were expanding, blocking the blade tip and preventing it from advancing. However, the Five Elders were more powerful than expected, and visual cracks could be seen appearing in the flames.

The blade gleamed coldly, and Hermes already felt a stinging pain.

"damn thing."

Hermes cursed and immediately grabbed Blackbeard and slammed him towards the Five Elders. Blackbeard was already in a state of collapse. With a huge crash, Blackbeard's eyes rolled back and he coughed up blood from his seven orifices, feeling that he was one step closer to death.

The Five Elders blocked with their left hands, while continuing to charge forward with their right hands gripping the Supreme Grade Sword.

The idea of ​​exposing Hermes was very firm.

The most dangerous thing was that another figure appeared quickly, and a punch with terrifying power slammed into Hermes. It was that old bastard Garp, who had arrived at some point.

Click.

The domain shattered completely, and a sword and a fist swiftly struck Hermes. In a flash of light, Hermes activated the Shrinking Earth technique, causing the terrain to rapidly shrink and expand. In an instant, Garp and the Five Elders appeared a hundred meters away, leaving the two terrified.

"Boss, hurry!"

Just then, a door appeared beside them.

Bruno looked somewhat anxious.

He was terrified just now.

Hermes didn't hesitate and stepped inside, because the Five Elders and Garp had already rushed over. Unexpectedly, Blackbeard suddenly exerted his strength at this moment, even though he looked like he was about to die.

The crucial point is that he managed to break free.

"Jie Jie~"

Hermes was very decisive. He only gave Blackbeard a meaningful look before disappearing into the alternate dimension. Staying any longer might result in him being permanently trapped.

Because too many people want him dead.

People were still managing to get away from the distant battlefield.

What merit or ability does Hermes possess to receive so much care from so many people? It is truly unbearable.

Blackbeard, with a strong will to survive, dragged his nearly collapsed body away from the spot. The Five Elders and Garp were already rushing over, and he was unsure whether they would attack him.

Even though he is still a Shichibukai.

But the look the Hunter King gave him at the end was, for some reason, particularly eerie. The illusion of death did not dissipate; instead, it became clearer.

"That bitch got away again."

Karp's face was gloomy as he looked at the empty air, and his high blood pressure rose.

The same applies to the Five Elders of the Samurai Sword.

Almost.

Just a little bit different.

This is a different dimension.

Hermes had blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and the wound in his heart was healing. If he hadn't reacted quickly and hadn't activated his pure domineering defensive domain, he might have really capsized in the gutter.

"Boss, are you alright?!"

Mansherry used her powers to accelerate Hermes' recovery.

"A mere minor injury; these old silver coins were indeed waiting for me."

After this close call, he became even more certain that these old fogies had a trick up their sleeve, specifically designed to deal with him; they had gone to great lengths to do so.

I need to be more careful next time.

It's a pity we didn't catch Blackbeard, but it doesn't matter. That bastard has big ambitions and will definitely make a name for himself in the future. We can deal with him then.

I just hope it won't leave any psychological trauma.

outside world.

Garp and the Five Elders completely ignored Blackbeard. In their eyes, Blackbeard posed no danger and was simply lucky that he hadn't yet acquired Whitebeard's abilities.

Otherwise, the Five Elders wouldn't consider Blackbeard to be without threat.

"captain!!!"

"Come on!"

"We can't stay here any longer."

Blackbeard's steps were unsteady, his appearance was a pitiful sight, and his eyes no longer held the confidence they once had, as he feared that the King of Hunters would appear again without warning.

The power of the Dark-Dark Fruit is completely useless.

The opponent's physical skills are simply too powerful.

That one moment has left him traumatized.

He even felt an inexplicable fear of the Hunter King, who was even more despicable and ruthless than him, and he didn't even know why the King had targeted him.

This is not good news.

"withdraw!"

Lafitte and the others were also afraid.

The two attacks had just left them severely injured. Their former arrogance had turned into fear. Forget about plans; their priority was to get out of here and save their lives.

that's it.

The Blackbeard Pirates arrived at Marineford with great fanfare, but before they could even begin, they were nearly wiped out and had to flee in disgrace.

It was incredibly unlucky.

Blackbeard increasingly felt that he was unlucky.

I don't know which part went wrong, it's really frustrating.

"Boss, should we give chase?"

Lucci looked at the fleeing Blackbeard Pirates. Although he didn't know why Hermes had targeted them, he knew there must be a reason for his attack.

"Need not."

Hermes turned to look at the battlefield.

He needed to ensure Whitebeard lived, and that the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was not lost in any way. As for Blackbeard, he was already his, and it was only a matter of time before he captured him.

But there is also good news.

That is, with the support of the remnants of the Roger Pirates, the Revolutionary Army, and the prisoners of Impel Down, the Whitebeard Pirates have moved further and further away from the battlefield, and the battle between the two sides is no longer as fierce as before.

They are all somewhat sluggish.

Conversely, the Navy has fallen into a disadvantageous position. Whether in high-level or mid-level combat, Whitebeard's temporary large fleet has the upper hand.

Some people weren't intentionally helping the Whitebeard Pirates; they were simply seeking revenge against the Navy or doing them a favor.

after an hour.

The fighting between the two sides has slowed down considerably. Limbs and bodies are scattered everywhere, both on the battlefield and on the ice plains, and blood has flowed like rivers. Marineford is almost unrecognizable.

“Stop!”

Despite his reluctance, Satan Saint still issued the order.

Continuing the fight is pointless. The Navy must preserve some manpower. Borsalino can't contribute much on their side, and Sakazuki and Kuzan are seriously injured; their lives may be in danger if this continues.

Magellan had retreated to the toilet half an hour earlier.

The CPOs were also severely injured.

Sora, Garp, Zephyr, Tsuru, Gion, and others weren't much better off.

The Whitebeard Pirates were in a similar situation, with only the Roger Pirates, the Revolutionary Army, and the Impel Down criminals faring slightly better, and they were already far from Marineford.

The navy still has the strength to fight, but doing so would only do more harm than good. A smart leader would preserve the maximum number of personnel even if he loses.

Only in this way can we have the strength to make a comeback.

If we lose everything here, the navy will lose its voice on the high seas in the future, which will also affect the world government's rule.

In any case, the navy must have sufficient strength and deterrence.

Whether we admit it or not, the navy lost this time.

The culprit is undoubtedly the Hunter King.

If it weren't for the Hunter King rescuing Fire Fist Ace, allowing the Whitebeard Pirates to operate without any worries and having Sengoku as a top-tier fighter, the Navy would have had a lot of room to maneuver.

A war.
