One Piece: World Conquest Begins with Creating a Little Empress

“We have Dad here with us…”

The commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, like Whitebeard himself, remained calm and collected in the face of this. They were all veterans; what hadn't they seen?! This level of situation couldn't frighten them...

"a ha ha ha……"

"Old man with the white beard! I've brought the entire air force of the World Government to execute you..."

"You've really aged in the years I haven't seen you..."

"It's ridiculous that they need a bunch of brats to protect them."

On that island in the sky, a burst of laughter came before anyone was even seen!

A middle-aged man dressed in a white suit with a coat of justice draped over his back arrived at the edge of the island amidst bursts of laughter. He looked down at the white-bearded man surrounded by his sons below the island and sneered coldly.

"Kurara! Garp, you haven't changed at all over the years. Did you, like Zephyr, undergo scientific modifications by that brat Char?!"

"Heh! You are a bunch of madmen who dare to try to change fate! In life, birth, aging, sickness, and death are inevitable. The youth you have gained is nothing but an illusion, like a mirage!"

Whitebeard looked at the still-young Garp, and was taken aback at first, then roared angrily.

"Whether it's a mirage or not, you'll find out soon enough..."

As Garp spoke, he leaped down from the edge of the island that Gion had moved there, like a shooting star, and threw a punch at Whitebeard from hundreds of meters away.

"Kuralala..."

Upon seeing this, Whitebeard first sneered, then his right hand was instantly enveloped in the powerful abilities of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and a portion of Haki...

"Galactic Impact!!"

At this moment, Garp unleashed his full power, and endless black lightning, under Garp's command, transformed into an invisible shockwave that surged toward the Moby Dick!

"Damn it! Garp!!"

Seeing this, Whitebeard roared in response, using his Haki to directly block Garp's attack! In an instant, Whitebeard and Garp's fists collided in mid-air, their terrifying Haki intertwining, causing the surrounding atmosphere, sea, and even the Moby Dick beneath Whitebeard's feet to rumble as if they were constantly weeping.

"Dad!!"

Meanwhile, after seeing Whitebeard and Garp begin their contest of Haki and endurance, Whitebeard's sons all decided to step in and help him.

“Your opponent is me…”

Unfortunately, before these people could succeed!

Douglas Bullet descended from the sky, landing heavily on the deck of the Moby Dick. He looked arrogantly at Marco and the others, and roared, "You weaklings of the Whitebeard Pirates! Your opponent is me! Douglas Bullet!"

Chapter 146: The Army Joins the Battle! A Meteor Shower Brings Despair to the Whitebeard Pirates!!

Douglas Barrett and Karp charged into the enemy ranks as if no one else was there, like tigers among sheep, as if they had entered an empty field...

A power struggle ensues between Edward Newgate, one of the Four Emperors and known as the strongest man in the world! Countless black lightning bolts crackle and roar around them, their terrifying aura causing the surrounding pirates to cower in fear and dare not approach…

The other one is like a terrifying killing machine!

They began a large-scale massacre of the pirates who were loyal to Whitebeard and affectionately called him "Old Man"...

"Hahaha……"

"Too weak! Absolutely too weak..."

Barrett swung his arms with tremendous force, and with each punch he landed, a pirate would be left bleeding from the head and collapse to the ground in agony.

"The members of the Whitebeard Pirates..."

"Do you know why your father, Whitebeard, such a powerful man, was successfully ambushed by our World Government's army?!"

"It is precisely because of your weakness!!"

"If you weren't so weak, and even the old man with the white beard couldn't withstand his full-power Haki, then even if the old man with the white beard couldn't win, he would still have no problem protecting himself. After all, he possesses the power to destroy the world!"

Barrett looked at the pirates he had defeated, grinned widely, and laughed wildly.

Yes, although Whitebeard definitely had no chance of winning against Bullet and the others!

However, if Whitebeard were to use his Devil Fruit powers to continuously create tsunamis thousands of meters high on the sea, or shake the air and create violent typhoons to interfere with the government's military, and if he were determined to escape, then the price the government would have to pay to deal with Whitebeard would be much greater than what it is paying now.

Unfortunately, because Whitebeard's sons were too weak, if Whitebeard were to unleash his full power, not only would the government's army suffer, but even the members of his own Whitebeard Pirates would be in danger. Therefore, Whitebeard had no choice but to constantly restrain himself and engage in a one-on-one battle of Haki and physical skills with that old geezer Garp...

Even when Whitebeard occasionally used the power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit to attack Garp, he would deliberately restrain his power to prevent the Whitebeard Pirates members who got close to them from being knocked away before Garp was defeated.

"Are we a burden to Dad?!"

As Barrett finished speaking, the pirates who had been blasted away by Barrett's iron fists all changed their expressions, revealing a hint of despair.

"boom!!"

Just as Barrett was about to incapacitate the Whitebeard Pirates with his words, a dazzling firebird suddenly flashed before Barrett's eyes, carrying blue-green flames, and fiercely attacked him...

"Phoenix Seal!!"

The person who came was naturally the ship's doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, and also the de facto second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates, the 'Phoenix' Marco who never washed his feet.

"boom!"

With Marco's kick, Barrett was sent flying without warning.

"call out!!"

With a deafening roar, it crashed into the cabin of the Moby Dick.

"It's Captain Marco!"

The moment these ordinary pirates saw Marco arrive, they immediately smiled.

"You all need to pull yourselves together! Don't listen to their nonsense..."

"You are all my pride, you have never been a burden to me! Remember, you are all the pride of the Whitebeard Pirates..."

Marco flapped his wings and shouted loudly to the people around him.

"Oh!!"

With Marco's arrival, the ordinary pirates immediately started shouting loudly.

"boom!"

But at this moment...

With a deafening roar!

Barrett, who had been knocked away by Marco using his human-beast form to launch a sneak attack and a dive, rose again from the ruins.

"what?!"

"Who am I, then?!"

"So it's Marco the Phoenix?"

"Whitebeard is about to die, and the Whitebeard Pirates are about to disband. Have you thought about your way out?! Speaking of which, aren't you a doctor? Why don't you join the World Government? You're always saving lives anyway, and even your bounty comes from the infamy of the other members of the Whitebeard Pirates..."

Barrett looked at Marco in the distance and extended an invitation.

"What a joke! I'm going to live and die with my father..."

Marco looked at Barrett and said angrily.

"Then let's die together!"

The moment Barrett finished speaking, he was already in front of Marco, and to Marco's horrified surprise, he grabbed Marco tightly in his hand...

Just like Charlotte Linlin's posture when she pinched Marco with one hand!

"boom!"

The next second, Barrett slammed Marco hard onto the deck of the Moby Dick, and under the powerful impact, Marco coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood.

"I heard your nickname is the Phoenix?! Are you really immortal?"

Barrett looked at Marco, whom he was holding with one hand, and sneered.

Yes, in the face of top-tier combat power...

Marco, a high-ranking official within the Royal Guard, is only fit to be manipulated!

Although Marco's Devil Fruit ability grants him immortality, allowing him to hold his own against Marine Admirals, Yonko Charlotte Linlin, and even Kaido in his Beast form, he can only manage a couple of moves. The gap between top-tier and below-top-tier combat power is too vast, and cannot be bridged by a single special Devil Fruit...

"Captain Marco!!"

With Marco being held hostage by Barrett, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates panicked. They grabbed sharp weapons and unleashed their dark cannons at Barrett.

"Noisy!!"

Barrett's eyes narrowed slightly at this, and an endless shockwave was released from his body, causing the Whitebeard Pirates members who were charging towards him to fall to the ground instantly.

"Conqueror's Haki..."

Upon seeing this, Marco gritted his teeth.

"Hahaha……"

After Barrett swiftly dispatched all the surrounding minions, he crouched down, brandishing his iron fist, which was imbued with Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, ready to attack Marco at any moment.

"Get out of my way!!"

However, at this critical moment...
