One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, starts with the Eight Gates Formation.

Chapter 108: If you're willing to retreat, I'll help you revive Ace! The world is shocked!

A quote from Lynn.

The battlefield, which had just been tense and filled with shouts of battle, fell eerily silent at this moment.

Whether it was the navy or pirates, legends of the old era or powerful figures of the new, everyone's actions came to a standstill at this moment.

The enormous golden Buddha statue of the Warring States period stood frozen in place, its expression even more unpleasant than when it was attacked by Barrett.

He sensed a glimmer of hope, a chance for the navy to extricate itself from this unprecedented catastrophe.

But he dared not speak easily.

Because he didn't know what the little monster meant by "face".

Is the intention to make the navy kneel down and beg for mercy?

Or do you want to... kill everyone present?

Sengoku's mind raced, cold sweat trickling down his golden cheeks.

He took a deep breath.

"Lynn, 'Demon Child'... what do you mean by 'face'?"

This question reflects the sentiments of everyone present.

Countless eyes around the world were glued to that tiny figure on the screen, forgetting even to breathe.

Lynn took a sip of her iced drink and burped.

He spoke casually, as if it were a matter of course, as if he were simply remarking on the nice weather.

"It's very simple."

"Stop fighting, everyone."

"Finish work, go home, everyone go back to their own mothers."

boom!!!!

If Lynn's appearance just now was like throwing a boulder into a calm lake, then...

So his words directly detonated a deep-sea nuclear bomb!

The entire audience erupted in uproar!

The whole world was shaken!

"Wait...and call it a day?"

"He...he's here to attack the Navy, isn't he?!"

"What's going on? Did I hear that right? Demon Child Lynn... is here to mediate the war?"

The minds of countless viewers completely crashed.

This script... something's not right!

This infamous star, who disregards the World Government and kills even the Celestial Dragons without hesitation, came to the heart of the Marineford War not to take advantage of the chaos and wipe out the Marines and Whitebeard, but instead to act as a peacemaker.

This is even more outrageous than the resurrection of Barrett and the Golden Lion!

The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Between power.

The five elderly people's faces were filled with the same doubt and confusion.

"armistice?"

The blond Five Elders frowned.

"What exactly does he want to do?"

"Could he be trying to reap the benefits without lifting a finger? No... this is completely out of character for him."

They couldn't figure it out.

The behavior and logic of this biggest variable have completely exceeded their comprehension.

On the battlefield.

After a brief period of silence, an even more violent eruption followed!

"Are you kidding me! Lynn the Demon Child!"

The white-bearded man's booming voice was the first to ring out, filled with endless grief and anger.

He pointed at Ace, who lay in a pool of blood, his life rapidly fading away, and roared at Lynn high above.

"The Navy killed my son!"

"The war has come to this point..."

"And now you want us to stop?!"

"Do you think... that's possible?!"

If it were anyone else, Whitebeard would have killed them with a single blow; there's no reasoning with him.

But the other party is Lynn the Demon Child.

He had to be reasonable!

"Hehehehehehe!"

Shiki the Golden Lion let out a piercing, maniacal laugh.

"Hey! Kaido's son!"

"I specifically escaped from Impel Down to see just how capable you, the strongest brat of this era, really are!"

"Are you telling me now that you're not going to fight?"

"Who do you take me for?!"

Barrett didn't speak, but his eyes, filled with explosive power, were fixed on Lynn, his fighting spirit only increasing.

Why did they come?

Isn't it all just to find this strongest brat and fight him?

They can't accept it ending like this!

Faced with the white-bearded man's rejection.

Lynn spoke calmly.

"Yeah?"

His gaze fell on Fire Fist Ace, who was barely breathing.

Then he said something that brought the whole world to a standstill once again.

"He's not quite dead yet."

"I can save him."

"The condition is that your Whitebeard Pirates cease hostilities immediately, how about it?"

……

At this moment, the whole world seemed to have been put on pause.

Revive Fire Fist Ace?!

How to save a person whose chest has been pierced by a lava fist and whose heart and internal organs have been almost completely burned?

What does this mean?

This is no longer within the scope of medical skills.

This even exceeds the scope of Devil Fruit abilities!

This is something only a god could do!

"No...it's impossible..."

Chopper, the Straw Hat crew's doctor, bristled with fur. As a doctor, he knew better than anyone what Ace's injuries meant.

"That kind of injury... the heart and internal organs were completely destroyed... cells had begun to die on a large scale... it's absolutely! Absolutely impossible to save him!"

Its voice was full of impossibility.

Because all the medical knowledge it has learned in its life is being completely overturned by a single, casual remark.

however.

When it looked at Sengoku, Garp, the three admirals, the seven warlords of the sea, and others, it was surprised to find that all the powerful figures on the Navy side, apart from tension and vigilance, did not show the slightest disbelief on their faces!

Yes.

They might not believe anything else you say.

But if Lynn speaks up... then it's really possible to do it!

The Whitebeard Pirates also looked on with surprise and doubt.

To bring a dead person back to life?

They can't believe it.

But it was Lynn the Demon Child who said those words... It's hard for them not to believe it!

Sudden.

"Thump!"

A muffled thud.

Under the spotlight.

Straw Hat Luffy knelt heavily on the ground.

Without the slightest hesitation, he slammed his forehead hard against the blood-soaked, rock-covered ground, facing the figure atop the highest point of the Marine Headquarters!

"Lynn!!!"

He mustered all his strength and let out a hoarse, tearful cry.

Please!

"Save Ace!!!"

Please!!!

He doesn't understand anything.

He doesn't understand medicine, cells, or what is impossible.

All he knew was that the man named Lynn was very strong.

So strong it's unreasonable.

So strong that they can disregard a naval admiral.

So strong that he could slaughter a Celestial Dragon right in front of an Admiral.

Therefore, he can definitely do it!

They will definitely create a miracle!

Luffy's kowtow and his three heart-wrenching pleas clenched everyone's hearts.

Whitebeard's enormous body trembled violently.

He looked at Luffy kneeling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, and then at the calm and collected brat in the distance. His eyes were filled with struggle.

Reason told him that this was impossible.

But Luffy's unwavering trust rekindled a glimmer of hope in his heart, which had sunk into the abyss of despair.

He asked in a hoarse voice.

"Kid... what exactly is your purpose?"

Lynn glanced at Ace, whose breathing was growing weaker and weaker, and clicked his tongue impatiently.

"Tsk, he's practically dead."

He held up one finger.

"I'll count to sixty."

"Sixty seconds from now, not even a god could save him, let alone me."

"You decide for yourselves."

After saying that, he actually started counting down slowly in that childish, babyish voice.

"sixty."

"Fifty-nine."

Fifty-eight.

Each number was like a heavy hammer blow, striking the hearts of every member of the Whitebeard Pirates!

Time, at this moment, becomes more precious than ever before, and more cruel than ever before!

"Dad!"

"Let him give it a try, Dad!"

"Yeah! If this continues, Ace really will..."

"Please, Dad!!"

Marco, Jozu, Vista… all the captains, all the crew members, all gathered around, looking at Whitebeard with pleading eyes.

Luffy raised his blood-covered forehead and cried out.

"Old man with the white beard! Please!!"

"Forty-two."

"Forty-one."

Lynn's countdown continues, devoid of any emotion.

Whitebeard looked at the anxious faces, at the straw-hatted boy who had given up his dignity for his brother, and then at his own son who was about to die.

His proud heart, that of a maritime emperor, finally wavered.

He closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, all that remained in them was determination.

He looked up at Lynn and, with all his might, roared out his decision.

"good!"

"I promise you!"

"If only you could save Ace!"

"The Whitebeard Pirates, retreat immediately!!"

"I'll personally lead them away!!"

Thirty-five.

Lynn's countdown stopped at this number.

He nodded in satisfaction.

"You're smart."

The words fell.

His figure vanished instantly from the highest point of the Marine Headquarters.

next second.

He had already appeared beside Ace.

He crouched down, his small body bent down, and stretched out his fair hand to cover the horrific hole in Ace's chest, a bloody mess where even the charred internal organs were visible.

A soft green light emanated from Lynn's hand, completely enveloping the wound on Ace's chest.

then.

Under the watchful eyes of billions of people around the world.

A miracle occurred.

The hideous and terrifying wound, the flesh charred black by the magma, began to writhe and grow wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

New flesh and blood are growing!

The severed blood vessel is being reconnected!

The burned internal organs are rapidly reconstructing!

The hole that ran through his entire chest was being rapidly filled by the new tissue!

Ace's previously cold body regained its temperature.

A healthy rosy glow appeared on his paper-pale face.

His heart, which had stopped beating, started thumping again with a strong "thump-thump" sound!

At this moment, the entire world fell completely silent.

Everyone who witnessed this scene, regardless of who they were or where they were, went completely blank, as if struck by lightning, and froze on the spot.

The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Between power.

pat.

The teacup in the hands of the five blond elders slipped from their grasp, crashed to the ground, and shattered into pieces.

His usually composed face was now filled with nothing but utter horror and...fear.

"This...this isn't the power of a Devil Fruit..."

Another of the Five Elders spoke in a trembling voice.

"It's not technology either..."

"What...what kind of method is this?!"

They had witnessed all kinds of destruction.

They themselves possess the power to easily destroy an island.

Even immortality.
