One Piece: Starting from Awakening the Cosmo at Marineford

The pirates cheered and shouted, crowding the dock and stretching for hundreds of meters.

The golden lion was equally spirited, arms crossed as he looked at the group.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he looked at Aaron.

Aaron smiled slightly: "Sorry, Golden Lion, I can't let you go to sea. Finbuddy, make your move!"

"Phoenix! I promoted you to be my right-hand man, and you betray me and oppose me!"

The golden lion was enraged and moved its right leg, unleashing a slash.

Aaron's figure blurred as he drew his sword and blocked the slash.

He was thrown back more than ten meters by the enormous force.

In that brief moment, Fombardy had already transformed and taken to the sky, his pink dragon silhouette blotting out the sun.

A dazzling ball of light has appeared in the dragon's mouth.

The golden lion roared, "Not good!" and its body flew upwards.

Aaron no longer concealed himself, stepping on the air and using Moonwalk to block the Golden Lion's path.

Golden Lion's face darkened: "So you're from the Marines! Who sent you, Sengoku or Garp?"

Aaron laughed and said, "I came of my own accord."

The Golden Lion's face was so dark it could drip water: "You think you can stop me?"

"Dragon's Breath!"

Flames spewed from Finbuddy's mouth, heading straight for the hundreds of pirate ships in the harbor.

With a flick of his right hand and a flick of his index finger, the golden lion sent the soil and rocks on the island flying up in an attempt to keep the flames at bay.

"I'm sorry, Golden Lion!"

Aaron swung his right fist: "Hellfire Whirlwind!"

A pillar of fire smashed through the mud and rocks, and before the fire was extinguished, it smashed through more than a dozen pirate ships.

The countless pirates below were all bewildered, wondering why the two had suddenly started fighting.

Bernard, in particular, could hardly believe his eyes.

The captain is actually a marine?

The Golden Lion said, "Just some mere flames! Kid, if you've got the guts, catch this!"

"Hehehehe!"

The golden lion laughed wildly and pointed his right index finger downwards.

Countless people looked up at the sky.

The Golden Lion pointed at Lark and Bernard, who were still at the port, and shouted, "What are you standing there for! Kill his two accomplices!"

Lark swiftly raised his gun.

Bernard was helpless and forced by circumstances. Even though he now knew that Aaron was a member of the Navy, he could not sever ties with Aaron.

In the eyes of the pirates around him, he was either a Marine or a Marine's accomplice, and he was unlikely to be a good person.

Bernard drew his sword: "My minions! The Golden Lion has betrayed us! Protect the bees!"

Dozens of pirates immediately drew their swords and spears, surrounding and protecting Hibari.

With the chaotic battle about to begin, Hibari wasn't particularly strong to begin with, and Bernard only had a bounty of 2800 million Berries, making him just a "junior officer" level pirate.

Facing over ten thousand pirates, he would probably be chopped into mincemeat in less than a minute.

Just then, chaos erupted again in the crowd.

Screams rang out one after another, causing a commotion.

The Golden Lion looked down from his vantage point, taking in everything: "Finger Gun, Tempest Kick, humph! So many people have infiltrated."

The wind howled, and the sky grew even darker.

Everyone couldn't help but look up, and saw a colossal object parting the clouds and plummeting straight down.

"what!"

Countless pirates screamed in terror: "It's an island!"

"We're doomed! This island is falling, we're all going to die!"

"Governor Golden Lion! No!"

The Golden Lion laughed maniacally, "Hahahaha! Marines, you should be content with so many people dying alongside you!"

"Boss, I'll give it a try!" Finch shouted.

Finbuddy swam through the air, flying toward the island that had fallen from the sky.

Aaron said, "Get out of the way! I'll take this!"

The dragon's body was being compressed by the air pushed out by the island, and it was almost unable to breathe.

Hearing Aaron say that, he didn't care about being embarrassed anymore and swam away quickly.

"Help!"

The pirates, trying to escape this natural and man-made disaster, began to flee in panic, creating utter chaos.

Aaron stared at the immense wind pressure and leaped into the air.

The Golden Lion laughed loudly, "Boy, it's useless! This is an entire island! I prepared it long ago, originally intending to save it for the navy. Now, you've got it for yourself! Hehehehehe!"

"Earth-shaking! Earth-shaking!"

Aaron was in mid-air when he stomped his feet hard in the air, shattering the air beneath his feet, yet still holding him aloft.

Aaron swung a punch diagonally towards the island: "Crush it!"

"Click!"

Space trembled and shattered, and countless cracks spread rapidly toward the island.

The island's downward momentum immediately eased.

A clearer cracking sound rang out, and countless cracks appeared and spread across the island.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the entire island exploded instantly, sending countless pieces of mud and rocks blotting out the sky.

Lion Island was suddenly plunged into darkness, so dark that one could not see their own hand in front of their face.

The ground near the port cracked and tilted, shaking those clinging to it and shattering the buildings.

As the atmosphere trembled, the strong winds blew the mud and gravel away, carrying them to the distant sea.

The larger stones mostly fell into the sea, making a series of sounds.

Those that landed on the shore no longer posed much of a threat to the people below.

"The Tremor-Tremor Fruit! Well, kid, you actually got Whitebeard's power! I really underestimated you!"

The golden lion's eyes were sharp, and his gaze toward Aaron became more serious.

He had only seen Aaron use a knife, and judged that Aaron's strength should be that of a mid-to-upper-level Shichibukai.

But now, with the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power, he's at least a top-tier Shichibukai, or at least has the strength of a Yonko's vice commander.

"boom!"

A series of explosions rang out as Finbuddy used his heat breath again, destroying most of the pirate ship.

He didn't stop; he continued to spew flames.

The golden lion leaped into the air once more, high above, and unleashed a flying kick: "Wave Slash!"

A massive sword aura ripped through the sky, slicing towards the pink dragon in the heavens.

Aaron's body instantly rose into the air, and he punched the air again.

With a soft "pop," the incredibly sharp slashing wave shattered into countless pieces like glass, dissipating into the air in a gust of wind.

Another series of explosions rang out, and the pirate ships were almost completely destroyed.

The Golden Lion laughed loudly, "Boy, if you had a boat, you could have escaped. Now, even if you wanted to, you can't get away!"

Aaron said, "Who said I was going to run away?"

The Golden Lion waved his hand and shouted, "Men! Kill them all!"

Although the pirates were not very willing, they still shouted and moved under the pressure of the Golden Lion.

Aaron's eyes widened in anger, his aura surged, and his Conqueror's Haki surged out like a tidal wave, covering everything below.

A gust of wind swept by, stirring up countless specks of dust.

After the wind subsided, the pirates fell down one by one.

Soon, only two or three hundred people remained standing at the port.
