Marineford in Sharingan, Uchiha Admiral

Twenty-six years ago, a major event occurred that impacted the world, yet remained largely unknown.

The event took place on a non-magnetic island called God Valley in the Western Sea and lasted for a full twenty-one days.

The Celestial Dragons held a bloody "Human Hunting Game" in God Valley, rewarding the top-ranking Celestial Dragons with treasures such as Devil Fruits stolen from Beehive Island.

This also includes Shakky, the previous emperor of Amazon Lily and former captain of the Kuja Pirates.

This incident triggered a huge struggle among various forces.

The strongest naval heroes of the time gathered to confront the World Government head-on.

The details are lost to history, but the result was that Roger and Garp joined forces to defeat the Rocks Pirates, who were the strongest at the time, thus securing victory.

After the incident, the island of God Valley disappeared, and the truth about it was covered up by the World Government.

……

At that time, Da Xiong was only 9 years old and was one of those killed in this cruel game.

Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the Rocks Pirates' attack on God Valley, he ate the Paw-Paw Fruit, one of the prizes, and used its power to rescue more than 500 people, including Ivankov and Ginny.

More than 500 people...

Big Bear looked at Chrysanthemum's face, reminiscing.

He remembered.

The man with the chrysanthemum-shaped face was over five meters tall, which was outside the normal range of human height. Although his face wasn't particularly distinctive, Big Bear still remembered him.

While waiting to be killed in the cage, there was a child who was the same size as him, but larger than the average person.

"You are... Battirami!"

Batirami, like himself, is a mixed-race member of the Bakania tribe!

……

……

A chrysanthemum-like face... Batirami kept his head down, his expression unreadable.

"Heh... So now, you're the only one who remembers my name..."

He looked up, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.

"You really remember me, Big Bear!"

"It's been so long!!"

……

……

Why...?

Big Bear struggled to speak, his mind filled with confusion.

If you've tried so hard to escape, why do you still want to become a Celestial Dragon's henchman?

Why?

Batirami repeated the sentence with a cold laugh.

"Why, why ask why?"

"Because of their giant blood, the Bakania people are born with superhuman strength far exceeding that of ordinary people."

"Our ancestors committed grave sins against the World Government, and serving the Celestial Dragons is the only way to atone for them."

"This is the fate we must bear!"

……

"That's not true! No one is born destined to be a slave! That's not true!!"

Big Bear, remembering his father's dying words, burst into tears: "That's impossible! Father didn't say that to me!! Do you still remember Nika—"

"no."

Battirami interrupted Kuma: "To die for the Celestial Dragons, that's what my father told me."

"actually……"

"Big Bear, there was also a moment when I doubted my father."

"The moment you slapped me into the air, the moment I felt myself flying."

……

He spread his hands and shook his head slightly: "Do you know, Big Bear, how many of the people you swatted away were actually caught and brought back?"

Big Bear's heart skipped a beat; he was terrified of hearing that answer.

Backfired.

Batirami smiled and made a "three" with his fingers.

"Three. That's not the number that was caught and taken back, but the number that wasn't caught!"

"You, Ivankov, Ginny, there are only the three of you!"

……

……

Dead silence.

Batirami continued speaking.

"Watching them being executed one after another, feeling the immense pain in their bodies, I understood..."

He had the expression of a pilgrim seeing a god, and his words were full of reverence.

"Big Bear!!"

"Being enslaved by the Celestial Dragons is our fate! It's the only way for us to survive!"

"Having figured this out, I've lived an incredibly happy and fulfilling life for the past twenty-odd years!"

"To be offered as a world-class noble by the Bakania clan is truly wonderful!!"

Big Bear's pupils trembled; he never expected Battillami to say such a thing.

at the same time……

I also feel heartbroken for those companions who ultimately couldn't escape.

……

however……

What followed caused him to break down completely.

"So that you can also experience this joy..."

Batirami spoke each word clearly.

"It was me who brought Ginny back."

! ! ! ! !

! ! ! ! ! ! !

Batirami extended his hand, smiling, "It's wonderful that Ginny would risk her life to please Lord Losolo."

I think you understand.

"Big Bear, come with me. Follow the destiny of our ancestors. You understand that we must atone for our sins, don't you?"

……

……

……

The world always strikes down the gentlest people in the cruelest way.

The bear's mouth was open, but it couldn't make a sound, and its eyes rolled back.

He broke down.

They couldn't even control their abilities and involuntarily fell towards the sea.

Why...

Why...

Why is this happening...?

……

Batirami watched the bear fall with a smile; he had no intention of using this opportunity to attack it, just as he had said…

He genuinely hoped that the three lost souls would come to their senses and return to the right path.

He genuinely felt that serving the Celestial Dragons was an immense honor.

Whatever he thought before, it doesn't matter anymore.

……

……

Just as the bear was about to fall into the sea.

Carrara —

The churning seawater suddenly froze, and a giant hand made of ice crystals caught his enormous body.

……

"Have you forgotten that Bonnie is waiting for you to come back?"

"Have you forgotten that you have companions waiting for you, forgotten your parents' last wishes?"

"Are you going to stop running, Big Bear?"

A tall, slender figure stood on the sea, her blood-stained white coat fluttering in the wind.

Uchiha Allen arrived at the scene.

……

His pale eyes gradually regained their sparkle, and images and smiling faces flashed through Big Bear's mind.

I……

I can't fall down...

I still have Bonnie… for Father, for Mother, for… Ginny…

Ivankov... Dragon...

I want to live well, to live happily...

Many people still need me; I cannot fall!

For the sake of freedom, I cannot stop!!

……

……

The bear's body wasn't badly injured, but his heart was riddled with wounds...

Supporting himself, he stood up.

Despite bearing a pain heavier than a mountain, he still stood up.

Batirami's expression suddenly changed, and he stared intently at Allen, looking extremely ugly.

"Arian...you bastard, why...?"

"How's it going with Lord Losolo?!"

……

Allen slowly raised his head, his Sharingan glowing a dark red in the afterglow, like two pools of congealed blood.

"Lossoro...?"

He tilted his head slightly, his tone devoid of emotion, not even contempt or sarcasm.

"I wouldn't say he's completely unharmed."

"asshole!!!!!!"

Armament Haki covered Batirami's fist, even though his body was battered and bruised and his strength was almost exhausted...

This punch cleaved through the wind and cleaved the sea!
