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

Lynn's words were like pouring a ladle of cold water into a pot of boiling oil.

In an instant, everyone in Marineford looked at each other, seeing strange expressions in each other's eyes.

Navy rescue?

Even the navy is being rescued?

This brat...

Is he serious?

Everyone was completely baffled.

Even the Whitebeard Pirates members who were just overjoyed at Ace's resurrection were now looking at the purple demon god with the eyes of someone looking at an alien.

Which side is this guy on?

"Is this guy really here to mediate the war?"

"I don't understand it, but I'm deeply moved!"

"Lynn the Demon Child... he doesn't seem so bad after all?"

"Nonsense! He saved Ace, and now he's saving the Marines. He's practically a living saint!"

Public opinion around the world instantly reversed.

The fear and awe I felt for Lynn before were now being mixed with a hint of... worship?

……

In a distant corner of Marineford.

Having just arrived from Impel Down, the Blackbeard Pirates, who were waiting for their chance to strike, all looked increasingly grim.

"Thief, hahaha... What a joke!"

For the first time, Blackbeard Teach's smile appeared so forced and stiff.

Is the war... coming to an end?

Is that all?

How could he then take advantage of the chaos to seize the Tremor-Tremor Fruit?

How can he then realize his ambitions?

"Captain... what do we do now?"

Van Augur looked at the towering purple giant, a hint of bewilderment in his voice.

Charge forward?

Go and provoke that monster?

Do not make jokes.

Even Admiral Akainu was cleaved away with a single strike.

If those few of them went up there, they probably wouldn't even be enough to fill the gap between the enemy's teeth.

"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?!"

"hateful……"

Teach's fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

For the first time, the fire of ambition in his eyes was nearly extinguished by a stream of icy water called "powerlessness."

He could only watch helplessly.

Watching that brat single-handedly dominate the course of the entire battlefield.

But he couldn't do anything.

……

The center of the battlefield.

The mind of the Warring States Marshal was racing.

promise?

Still not agreeing?

Agreeing would mean the Navy bowing down to a pirate, losing all its prestige.

I won't agree...

He glanced at Akainu, who was being pinned to the ground by Garp and still struggling, and then at the unharmed purple demon god.

He dared not imagine the consequences of refusing.

Just when the Warring States period was indecisive and struggling with the conflict between heaven and man.

An arrogant and domineering voice broke the silence.

"Hehehehehehe!"

Shiki the Golden Lion floated in mid-air, his long golden hair moving without wind, his eyes filled with displeasure.

"Hey! Kaido's son!"

"If that white-bearded guy doesn't want to fight anymore, he can get lost!"

"But I haven't had enough yet!"

He pointed his famous sword at the navy's camp.

"The navy has really taken good care of me over the years!"

"This score must be settled today!"

His aura surged once more, clearly indicating that he had no intention of giving up.

however.

Lynn inside Susanoo merely glanced at him indifferently.

"Shiki the Golden Lion".

His childlike voice, amplified by the energy giant, clearly resonated throughout the entire venue.

"Your leg looks like it's in a lot of trouble."

Shiki's movements suddenly froze.

He subconsciously looked down at his two famous swords that served as prosthetics, "Sakura-ju" and "Kureki".

These are the marks he left when he cut off his own feet to escape Impel Down.

It was his shame, but also part of his strength.

"As long as you agree to a ceasefire."

Lynn's voice possessed an undeniable magic.

"I'll help you grow your legs back."

"Completely intact."

boom!

Shiki the Golden Lion's brain exploded.

He froze in mid-air.

To make my legs...grow back?

He recalled the excruciating pain of having his own feet severed in Impel Down when he tried to break free of the seastone shackles.

He recalled the inconvenience of using two swords instead of two legs to walk for so many years.

revenge……

And having my legs back...

For him, this multiple-choice question required absolutely no thought!

"Hehehehehehehehehehe!!"

A burst of laughter, louder and more genuine than ever before, resounded through the sky.

Shiki the Golden Lion flashed to the side of Susanoo, his arrogant face now plastered with a fawning smile.

"Oh dear! Nephew! Why didn't you say so sooner!"

He pounded his chest forcefully, and the speed of his change in attitude left everyone speechless.

"Your father, Kaido, is an old acquaintance of mine!"

"We're all one family! Fighting and killing only hurts our harmony!"

"Ceasefire! A ceasefire is necessary!"

He announced it with righteous indignation, then immediately put on a warm expression.

"My dear nephew, once things are settled here, how about we go pull off something big together? This sea deserves a new owner!"

Everyone was stunned.

Is this still the legendary pirate, Golden Lion?

That's an incredibly fast change of expression!

Before everyone could recover from the transformation of the golden lion...

Another figure, brimming with explosive power, stepped forward.

Douglas Barrett.

He ignored the Golden Lion, his eyes, filled with fighting spirit, fixed on Susanoo.

"I don't care about any legs, and I don't care about any ceasefire."

His voice was deep and hoarse, each word carrying a metallic quality.

"I'm here for only one purpose."

"I'll fight you!"

"They all say you're the strongest of this era, then... prove it to me!"

A violent surge of Conqueror's Haki erupted from his body, heading straight for Lynn.

Faced with this pure battle maniac.

Lynn didn't even bother with unnecessary words.

Susanoo lowered its enormous head slightly.

"You want to fight?"

"Can."

"Wait until this farce is over."

"I'll fight you one-on-one, let's go all out."

"Use all your strength and beat one of us until he can't stand up anymore."

Lynn's voice was calm, yet it contained a promise that sent shivers down Barrett's spine.

Barrett's pupils dilated instantly!

One-on-one!

Fight freely!

Go all out!

These words were like the most potent stimulant, injected fiercely into his soul!

A hideous and fanatical smile appeared on his face.

"good!"

"I promise you!"

He suppressed all his imposing manner, stepped aside, and sat cross-legged.

That look clearly said: Hurry up and finish, I can't wait any longer!

Another legendary monster has been dealt with.

Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to the last figure.

The Red Earl, Patrick Redfield.

The elegant elderly woman, holding a red umbrella, slowly walked out.

He gently tapped the ground with the tip of his umbrella.

"The Golden Lion got his leg."

"Barrett got his fight."

His voice was calm and unhurried, with an old-fashioned aristocratic tone.

"It seems everyone has had a satisfying experience."

"And what about me?"

He raised his head, his deep eyes calmly gazing at the purple giant, as if waiting for an answer.

Lynn scratched his head.

Susanoo also made a scratching motion, which looked rather comical.

"Well..."

"To be honest, I really can't think of anything I can do to help you."

"How about this?"

Lynn's tone carried a hint of uncertainty and probing.

"If you also want to have a fight and settle things, I'm happy to oblige."

This statement came out.

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

Are they even going to make a move against the Red Earl?

however.

The Red Earl let out a soft chuckle.

He shook his head and put away his red umbrella.

"No need."

"I don't have the habit of competing with children."

After saying that, he turned around and returned to his original position, as if everything was none of his business.

Everyone fell silent.

Everyone understood what he meant.

That's not the kind of deference an elder shows to a younger person.

Rather, it was a helpless retreat, one that even he himself was not confident of overcoming.

Even the legendary Red Earl... backed down.

As Zhan Guo witnessed this dramatic scene, his last shred of hope vanished completely.

The Whitebeard Pirates agreed.

Golden Lion agrees.

Barrett agreed.

Even the most mysterious Red Earl acquiesced.

If he persists, the Navy will have to face this unfathomable monster alone.

He has no chance of winning.

He took a deep breath, and the enormous golden Buddha body slowly dissipated, returning to its normal human form.

He picked up the Den Den Mushi beside him and, with all his might, announced that difficult decision to the entire Marineford, to the whole world.

"I agree."

"The Marineford War..."

That's enough!

The words fell.

The whole world was first deathly silent.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening cheer erupted, as if everyone had survived a disaster!

"Ohh ...

Whether it was the navy or pirates, whether it was the soldiers of Marineford or the civilians of the world, at this moment, they all shouted from the bottom of their hearts!

Nobody thinks the Navy lost.

No one felt they had lost face.

Because it was "Demon Child" Lynn who forced them to stop fighting.

It was in front of that hundred-meter-tall purple demon god.

To submit to such absolute power is not a disgrace.

That's called assessing the situation and making judgments.

Amidst this deafening cheer,

In Lynn's mind, a voice that only he could hear rang out.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, on successfully mediating the Marineford War, preventing a deterioration of the world-class plot, and having a significant positive impact on the timeline!]

[Special Reward: New Ability - Kaioken (Double)!]

[Ability Description: An explosive skill that can multiply all of one's power. Current Level: Doubled. Consumes stamina and Conqueror's Haki upon use.]

A brand new, violent power surged into Lynn's limbs and bones in an instant!

He could sense it.

It felt as if a nuclear reactor, capable of being detonated instantly, had appeared inside my body!

"Only twice?"

"This means the Kaioken technique is only in its initial stage... If it increases to 5 times, 10 times, or 20 times, then these people will probably be..."

Lynn's gaze swept quickly across the entire room.

Navy, Whitebeard Pirates, Seven Warlords of the Sea, three top criminals...

Everyone combined.

They probably wouldn't even be enough for him to fight alone!

However, he was excited.

The whole world breathed a sigh of relief.

But in the realm of rights.

Five old guys who stood at the top of the world could no longer take it!
