The most courageous pirate hunter

Click.

A crack appeared in the atmosphere of half the sky, forming an insurmountable barrier that actually blocked the expanding mushroom, but the white-bearded man looked quite miserable.

He was, after all, past his prime.

After an unknown amount of time, the giant mushroom cloud gradually subsided, and a blood-stained figure crashed heavily to the ground, his body covered in wounds and half of his face bloodied, revealing the bone beneath.

lie on the floor.

Hot blood stained the surroundings, and the white-bearded man lost his former majesty and domineering presence, appearing only disheveled and weak.

Silently.

A divine and extraordinary figure appeared, standing three feet off the ground next to Whitebeard. He turned his head to look in the direction where Rayleigh and the others had left, and then looked down at Whitebeard lying in a pool of blood.

"Jie Jie~"

"You're just wasting your time. None of them will escape today."

Whitebeard remained remarkably calm at Hermes' appearance, as if he had anticipated it. In that instant, he suddenly sprang into action, his right fist enveloped in a white pressure shield, with black and red lightning flickering across it.

Click! ! !

The atmosphere is broken up in large, continuous patches.

Even with such severe injuries, Whitebeard was still able to deliver a fatal blow.

It seems they were prepared all along, intending to take Hermes with them to the Western Paradise. This ruthlessness and determination are truly befitting of someone who was once the strongest in the world.

An unparalleled power of vibration, destroying everything, annihilating everything.

"You old fogies, even I am ashamed of my own cunning when you get treacherous."

A familiar, indifferent voice echoed behind him. The white-bearded man's face, covered in blood, was grim, and disbelief could be seen in his eyes. How did the other person appear behind him?

Logically, with the area in front of him filled with vibrational energy, it should have been impossible to force his way through, and there was no trace of movement whatsoever.

"Cough cough cough~"

"It is a tragedy for the world to have you in this era."

Whitebeard clenched his fists, a white pressure shield enveloped him, and a chilling killing intent soared to the sky. Today, he would drag this man down to hell no matter what.

"Stop with these high-sounding words."

Hermes sneered, and his right fist began to emit a dazzling light, as if a sun were rising.

boom! ! !

No words are needed.

The two roared and collided, and then the giant mushroom began to rise into the air.

The farthest place.

Ace and the others, still on the run, looked at the mushroom cloud rising again with tears in their eyes, but there was nothing they could do.

Little did they know that the danger had only just begun.

"Hahaha~"

"You can't escape."

"I'll play you to death."

"Who gave you the courage to fight against the Monarchy?"

"Haha, keep being arrogant!"

midair.

A door appeared, and several figures walked out, each holding several cube-shaped little boys, which Gayram had compressed using his power; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to carry so many.

"Fighting champion, Golden Emperor..."

Rayleigh had a bad feeling.

next second.

Hody Jones and his gang cunningly threw the cube-shaped little boy they were holding away, and Guy Ram immediately deactivated his powers, restoring all the little boys to their normal size.

It's a pity that it can't grow bigger like Hermes.

That's enough to hold off Rayleigh and the others.

"hateful."

"Be careful."

"asshole."

"You despicable bunch of scoundrels."

Everyone was screaming hysterically, but Bages and the others had already entered the alternate dimension.

Chapter 393 [Whitebeard and Ace Captured]

puff~

Thick blood spurted from his mouth, and the white-bearded man, his hands supporting him on the ground, was pale. He was no longer the world's strongest man who once dominated the world, but a wretched old man on the verge of death.

Given his current physical condition, he poses no threat to Hermes whatsoever.

Without the Teleportation Fruit, Whitebeard might still pose a threat, but with it, Hermes could completely control him.

"Unfortunately, you changed too late."

Hermes stood four feet in the air, shaking his head and sighing in front of Whitebeard. If Whitebeard had acted like him, or even just a little more cunning and treacherous, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Perhaps everyone has their own aspirations!

That's the charm of Whitebeard.

Click.

Whitebeard didn't waste any words. Even though he was exhausted, he didn't give up trying to drag Hermes down to hell. However, his attack was useless. Hermes appeared silently behind Whitebeard and kicked out. Whitebeard had no strength left to dodge.

With a cracking sound, Whitebeard flew out uncontrollably in a C-shape. Before he even landed, Hermes appeared and delivered a powerful uppercut to his chin. Whitebeard changed his trajectory and took off again.

"I wanted to give you my last bit of respect, but you are too dangerous."

Hermes ascended alongside Whitebeard, swiftly drawing the Van Gufried sword from his waist. With a flash of light and a burst of blood, Whitebeard let out a muffled groan as his limbs detached from his body and plummeted toward the ground.

Anyone who has read the original Marineford War story knows that even when Whitebeard was on his last breath, he was in great danger. Blackbeard was almost killed in a counterattack. Hermes couldn't possibly make such a foolish mistake.

The safest approach is to sever the opponent's limbs, completely rendering them powerless to resist.

When Jormungandr traveled the world, his main tactic was caution.

"Jormungandr~"

Before Whitebeard could finish speaking in his extremely weak state, Hermes grabbed him by the neck, while a purple-white aura emanating from his body washed over Whitebeard's entire body.

They're not giving us any chance at all.

I can't hold on any longer.

Whitebeard's eyes went black as he fell into a coma, his breathing became weak, and he could die at any moment.

"It's time to deal with the others."

Hermes turned to look in the direction of Rayleigh and the others, his figure disappearing into the air. When he reappeared, he was already above a sinkhole, where Jozu and the others were crawling out covered in dust.

Clearly, the little boy that Burgess and his men threw out made them feel very bad.

"BOSS."

Upon seeing Hermes appear, Gayram and the others from the alternate dimension also emerged.

Looking at the white-bearded man who was no longer human, Burgess was itching with desire. Just thinking about eating the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and combining it with the power of the Power-Power Fruit, in terms of pure strength, no one in this world could threaten him.

"Dad~"

on the ground.

Ace, Rayleigh, and the others stared in disbelief at the white-bearded figure in Hermes's hand, covered in blood, his limbs gone, and his life force barely visible.

"Jörmungandr!"

Ace, Marco, Jozu, and the others went mad, losing their minds and soaring into the sky, trying to tear Hermes to pieces. Rayleigh and Jabba didn't even have a chance to stop them.

"I want you to die."

"Jormungandr, Aaaaaaah!!!"

Faced with their hysterical killing intent, Hermes sneered, reached into his pocket and pulled out ten more little boys. Mansherry and the others twitched their lips and hurriedly entered the alternate dimension.

Burgess gleefully took the white beard from Hermes, his smile almost reaching his ears.

"Times have changed, but you're still standing still."

"He deserved to die!"

The entire sky was shrouded in shadow. The ten little boys magnified many times over in an instant, and then released endless light. In the horrified eyes of Rayleigh and the others, a mushroom cloud rose.
