The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 539 The King of the Old Era

The black-bearded man in the ruins had an excited glint in his eyes, filled with greed for the power of the Whitebeard Devil Fruit.

On the battlefield, Charlotte naturally noticed the little movements of the black-bearded man below.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Even if a traitor clings to their dreams, it cannot conceal their despicable nature.

A guy who begs for protection from others and then chooses to betray them without hesitation doesn't deserve sympathy.

Moreover, leaving Blackbeard unchecked would cause serious problems; he is a huge and uncertain factor.

Charlotte's terrifying killing intent surged into the sky, and with a wave of her hand, a massive slash shot out, heading straight for Blackbeard.

"Damn it!"

Blackbeard keenly sensed an alarming crisis, but he was even more unwilling to give up Whitebeard's body.

If you miss the window, the Devil Fruit will randomly respawn in the ocean, and it will take far too long to find it again.

"Shiryu!"

With a loud shout, the black-bearded man sent a figure soaring into the sky, unleashing a powerful slash to meet the attack.

"boom!"

A loud bang was heard, sending up a shockwave.

Shiryu of the Rain staggered back several steps after landing from the shockwave, causing his pupils to shrink involuntarily.

It really is as terrifying as it has always been.

Charlotte's gaze was icy. Shiryu of the Rain, who had lost an arm, had narrowly escaped with his life when he was imprisoned.

It was truly a regret back then.

It was only this brief delay that allowed Sengoku, Garp, and Akainu to cautiously surround them from three directions.

Even Ace, who had been rescued, was ignored, which gave Charlotte a huge headache.

Rather than pursuing Ace, who has already escaped, Charlotte is a more worthy opponent to be wary of right now.

Akainu's eyes burned with fervor. If the lone Hippefeller Charlotte could be severely injured today, it would undoubtedly be a huge victory for the Navy.

"Meteor Volcano!"

With a frenzied roar and a hint of madness, it launched the first attack.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Streams of lava surged continuously into the sky, turning it a vibrant red.

Slightly annoyed, Charlotte's black blade flashed with a cold light, and in an instant, hundreds of slashes pierced the air.

"Boom!"

With the force to shatter heaven and earth, it crashed into the magma fists that turned into meteors, scattering countless magma particles that flew between heaven and earth.

The temperature on the battlefield rose rapidly in an instant.

Sengoku and Garp arrived together, and a fierce battle ensued.

Blackbeard was overjoyed and immediately seized the opportunity to act.

Just then, a powerful jet of water shot out, directly knocking away the black-bearded man who was about to approach.

"Jinbe~"

Blackbeard's gaze locked onto Jinbe, the Knight of the Sea. He hadn't expected the other man to suddenly intervene and thwart his plans.

"Blackbeard, you won't succeed."

Jinbe spoke calmly. He had already received orders to rescue Ace and retrieve Whitebeard's body in this battle.

Ace was successfully rescued, so he naturally had no reason to attack. However, his surprise attack was quite effective.

And it doesn't matter if it's exposed.

He has already received orders to return to the Heberfeller family and become the leader of the Merman Knights.

Without a doubt, the Kingdom of Heberfeller has begun full preparations, and some hidden personnel are to return to their families to await orders.

Another ball of blue flame descended from the sky, grabbed the white-bearded man's body, and retreated backward.

Blackbeard was furious; the duck that was about to be eaten flew away.

Shiryu of the Rain sprang into the air, drew his sword, and unleashed a slash, the sharp blade flashing with an astonishing blue light.

"You despicable bastard, you won't get away with this!"

With a furious roar, Jozu, his entire body covered in diamonds, deflected Shiryu's slash.

A new round of conflict erupted between the newly separated remnants of the Whitebeard gang and members of the Blackbeard gang.

It was clear that Blackbeard's plan had failed.

"withdraw!"

Blackbeard gritted his teeth and retreated unwillingly. He was a decisive and ruthless man; if things were hopeless, he would not linger.

He could feel Charlotte's overwhelming killing intent towards him.

Every time he faced Xia Luo, he felt a sense of dread; he didn't want to be exposed to her.

On the battlefield, Charlotte was besieged by the Navy's three major forces and was temporarily unable to break free.

Meanwhile, other naval forces are rapidly converging on this location.

"God of Spring - Natural Disaster - Thunder Punishment~"

A deafening sound echoed across the battlefield, and endless lightning in the sky seemed to come alive as the black blade slashed through the air.

Connecting together, they formed a terrifying waterfall of lightning, interspersed with dark red and black lightning that blotted out the sky, cascading down violently.

When everyone looked up, their legs trembled uncontrollably, their scalps tingled, and an overwhelming pressure shook the world.

One after another, bolts of lightning connected the sky and the earth, repeatedly and frantically striking the ground.

Across the ground, streaks of lightning and arcs of electricity moved wildly, unleashing boundless destructive power.

It shatters the earth, crushes everything in its path, and is unstoppable.

"Ice Age"

With a low shout, Aokiji unleashed a massive wall of ice that burst forth from the ground, transforming into the most solid defensive barrier.

"Boom boom boom~"

A series of explosions rang out, sparks flew in the void, ruins turned to dust, and the navy, unable to dodge in time, fell like wheat in swathes.

Charlotte, who had wreaked havoc on the world, had now transformed into a god who controlled thunder, destroying and annihilating everything.

From a distance, Baki stared blankly at the dramatic turn of events before him, speechless with astonishment.

That's... terrifying!

Even the Blackbeard group who had just escaped couldn't help but look up at the sky above Marineford.

It was like an apocalyptic storm, so oppressive that it instilled a sense of despair.

When the people of the world who were watching the live Den Den Mushi witnessed Charlotte's awe-inspiring power, they were completely speechless.

Before I could recover from the Whitebeard's last words, I was jolted awake by the brutal battle scene.

Sengoku, Garp, Akainu, and others unleashed their most powerful attacks in succession to block Charlotte's assault.

The incredibly powerful Charlotte actually suppressed three of the Navy's most formidable combatants, which was astonishing.

Until everything returned to calm, the land was scarred and ruined, like an ancient relic, with no intact buildings to be seen.

The scorched earth, the crumbling fortress, the collapsed city, the shattered iron walls, corpses strewn everywhere, and countless wounded...

Marineford was completely unrecognizable after multiple rounds of fighting.

This headquarters, which embodies the Navy's justice and highest combat power, has suffered the most devastating destruction in its history.

Charlotte~

Unable to contain his anger any longer, Sengoku let out a suppressed roar. The naval losses were truly enormous, far exceeding his expectations.

"Today you will pay the price!"

Just as Zhan Guo was about to give the order, everyone rushed forward to surround and kill Xia Luo.

A highly recognizable pirate ship appeared on the sea not far away.

"That's... the Hibernite Thousand Miles Dragon!"

A majestic spatial gate appeared boldly and imposingly above Marineford.

From this emerged the other three kings and six saints of the Heberfeller family!

"Hey, Navy! You're ganging up on my king? Are you declaring war? I'm ready!"

Beta, the king of giant beasts, looked at the other party with a nonchalant expression, as if he was eager to try.

The sudden reinforcements silenced the Warring States period.

The Heberfeller Pirate Family, the Four Kings, and the Six Saints have all arrived today.

He knew that the battle could not continue; if it continued, the Hipparion family would be severely damaged, and the navy would inevitably be crippled.

He and Garp are old, and even if they join forces, they cannot defeat Charlotte, and it is very likely that they will die on the battlefield.

Charlotte landed calmly on the ground.

This massive war has come to an end.

The navy's current strength is completely inadequate; Sengoku and Garp are practically crippled after this battle.

Furthermore, the new round of power transitions within the navy after the Sengoku period will further weaken the navy's strength.

He has achieved his goal of suppressing the navy, and he is also about to recruit Whitebeard's remaining members to enhance his strength.

The navy didn't win even though they did!

In any case, the biggest winner is the Heberfeller family, so there's no need to continue fighting to the death.

Charlotte's voice was flat.

"If the war continues in the Sengoku period, my Heberfeller family will fight to the bitter end!"

When faced with Xia Luo's words, Zhan Guo was unwilling but helpless; he knew he couldn't win the fight.

"Hmph, we'll fight again next time!"

Despite his forced composure, Zhan Guo spoke with a defiant tone, the helplessness and bitterness in which he spoke were known only to him.

Charlotte smiled and did not press the issue further. The Navy was destined to decline after this battle.

Just as the fall of Whitebeard heralded a new era of upheaval in the world.

Sengoku and Garp exchanged complex glances; the injuries Charlotte had inflicted on them had thoroughly affected their combat capabilities.

To put it bluntly, they have fallen out of the ranks of the world's top powers, and sadly, an unparalleled "king" has emerged in the old era.

The Navy watched as the Heberfeller family departed safely.

A battle that shaped the world order has come to a complete end, but its aftermath has exceeded everyone's expectations.

The world was in an uproar!

As the old era came to an end one after another, the strongest of the Hibernian Charlottes continued to advance triumphantly as before.

The world was terrified, in awe, and spread his name far and wide.

"Hippefeller Charlotte is the true strongest man, no... he is the king of the old era!"

Almost all the decline and failures of the old era are related to this man.

He is not only the terminator of the old era, but also the king of the old era today.

Looking closely, Hibernian Charlotte's record is terrifying.

Those world-renowned pirates, each possessing the legendary aura of their era, were still no match for them.

From legendary pirates of the past to legendary veteran marines of today, they have all fallen to his hands.

How many people in this world have such an extraordinary and legendary life?

"The king of the old era, truly deserving of the title!"

On the high seas, people from all over the world murmured to themselves from the bottom of their hearts, a fact that was evident to all.

Such a title is too amazing, mainly because the achievements are too daunting.

The name Heberfeller Charlotte was destined to illuminate an era.

Such as the Rocks era, the Roger era, and the subsequent Heberfeller era.

The world trembles at the mere mention of the name Heberfeller Charlotte.
