Starting as a pirate, he rose to become the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society.

Chapter 114 Marshal, keep your spirits up, don't embarrass yourself!

The Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Pongel Castle, the highest level, the realm of power.

Seeing the scene on the live stream, the expressions of the Five Elders all turned gloomy.

"What were the Navy's intelligence department doing?! How could they not have noticed something this big before?!"

"Those useless CP members are the same. Didn't they say Kaido was fighting Shanks?!"

"That Golden Lion too. Ever since he escaped from prison, the Navy has been searching for him for over a decade without success. Now, it's all come knocking on their door!"

After berating the Navy and CP for their incompetence, the Five Elders gradually calmed down.

"The situation is now out of control, and we need to be prepared," said Sacred Vochuli, frowning.

Be prepared, but what preparations? Naturally, preparations for naval defeat!

Before Rocks appeared, the Five Elders had no doubt that the Navy would win; it was just a matter of how far they could win.

Now, they have to consider the possibility that the navy might lose, and what the consequences would be.

"Give the order: have Figaland Grindel lead the Knights of God to the Sabaody Archipelago to await orders. If the battle on the Navy's side shows any irreversible setbacks, then let the Knights of God join the battle!" Satan Saint pondered for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.

"The Navy's defeat is unacceptable. If necessary, cut off all signal channels and shut down the live broadcast. We too will step onto this battlefield!" Nasujiro said in a firm and powerful tone.

This is not a localized war. The navy and pirates have had their share of victories and defeats, so it doesn't matter. As long as it doesn't cause any major damage, the navy will recover in no time and there won't be too many problems.

This is a war that could determine the rise and fall of the navy for decades to come. If the navy is defeated, the pirates will become completely rampant. At that time, who knows how many will become kings and how many will become emperors?

Ambitious individuals from all over the world will become active, and the prestige built up by the World Government over the past eight hundred years will plummet to rock bottom. Revolutionary armies or any other kind of enemy will all have an opportunity because of this. The World Government is indeed a behemoth, and therefore, it has countless enemies, both overt and covert!

Therefore, the Five Elders would never allow this to happen!

The front line of the Navy Headquarters, the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Doflamingo's smile grew even more arrogant as he watched the island plummeting rapidly through the air.

"Fufufufufufu!" Doflamingo suddenly spread his arms wide and said, "At this very moment, we are at the very center of the tide of history! This place is where true neutrality begins, where the great battle that will define the concepts of justice and evil will commence!!!"

"Doflamingo, what's wrong with you?" Hancock glared at Doflamingo, somewhat annoyed.

"Hehehehe." Moria laughed, but though he was laughing, his eyes were filled with icy killing intent. After a few laughs, Moria suddenly turned to Doflamingo beside him and said, "Flamingo, you and that bastard Kaido seem to have a pretty good relationship, don't you? You're not thinking of betraying us, are you?"

"Fufufufufufufu." Doflamingo turned his head to look at the tall Moria and said, "What? Are you worried that I'll switch sides at the last minute? Don't worry about that. No matter what my relationship with Kaido is like, I still really need this position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

A flicker of excitement crossed Mihawk's eyes, as if he were somewhat expectant.

Back then, he challenged various swordsmen all over the sea, and one of his targets was Shiki, after all, Shiki was also a top swordsman who was famous all over the world. However, Shiki was elusive and disappeared without a trace after escaping from prison, so Mihawk has never been able to fight Shiki.

He thought he would never have this chance in his life, but he never expected that he would run into Shiki after participating in a war at the Marine Headquarters. How could he stand it?

On the execution platform, Teach laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, you're all dead! You're all dead!!! Bane, it seems even if I don't survive, you won't have a good end either!"

As the falling island drew ever closer, the shock on Fleet Admiral Sengoku's face gradually faded, and he regained his usual air of a wise general, declaring in a deep voice, "Whether it's Rocks or Whitebeard, in today's battle, our navy will surely prevail!"

On the high platform in front of the execution ground, Borsalino said with some helplessness, "Then let me smash these islands; the rest of the fragments are yours."

However, before he could even stand up, he saw that the expert beside Lieutenant General Garp, not too far from them, below the execution platform, made a move.

Borsalino smiled. He knew his name and had heard Garp mention him, saying that the man possessed strength comparable to their Marine Admirals, but Borsalino didn't know the specifics.

As Borsalino was thinking about these things, he saw the man named Yixiao take a step forward. The moment his foot landed, a light purple energy halo spread out from his location, covering the entire square in the blink of an eye. Then, the man gently pulled out the staff-sword from his hand.

"Gravity Field - Unfettered Kite!" Yixiao whispered softly.

A pale purple halo transformed into a ring, suddenly shooting up from the ground and instantly enveloping the sky above the plaza. The three islands that had fallen from the sky seemed to lose their downward momentum the moment they came into contact with this energy halo, and thus came to a steady stop in the air.

"Oh?" Shiki noticed this scene, a hint of interest in his eyes. "When did the Navy have someone like this?"

Before he could even think about it, the small islands that were originally suspended in the air seemed to be hit by a reaction force. After a brief moment of suspension, they were all launched into the air like huge cannonballs, flying backwards and heading straight for the Whitebeard Pirates' large fleet in the air!

Seeing this, Skeeter beckoned with his finger, seemingly preparing to do something, but Newgate made the first move.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and then he slammed his fist down into the void.

It was an airquake!

With a loud crash, as if a mirror were shattering, everyone at Marine Headquarters who looked up could see that the sky seemed to have cracked open with countless spiderweb-like fissures!

Immediately following was a powerful tremor that roared out from all directions. The three islands that had been sent flying backward were engulfed by this powerful tremor and shattered into countless pieces of rock almost in the blink of an eye. The opposing gravity was also destroyed by this massive tremor, and then, the chaotic debris fell like a rain curtain once again.

This time it didn't have the same overwhelming momentum as before, but it was still accompanied by the trembling power of the white beard, and it was not to be underestimated!

Once this rain of rocks falls into the army's formation, it will definitely cause heavy casualties to the navy.

"Black Annihilation - Abyss of Darkness," Bane chuckled softly.

He made his move, without waiting for any other opportunity. He stood on the execution platform, pressed one hand into the air, and endless dark elements transformed into waves that rolled away. In less than three or five breaths, a dark abyss that blotted out the sky had formed above the square. Countless rocks, mixed with Newgate's trembling power, fell into this dark abyss, yet it seemed that not a ripple was made, and the calm was chilling!

At this moment, behind Bane, Teach, kneeling on the execution platform, was practically spitting fire in his eyes—jealousy!

This should all have been mine! This dark power should belong to me, damn Bane!

After accepting the "gift" brought by "Rocks" in one go, Bane said with a smile, "Marshal, even if Rocks were to be resurrected, our Navy is fully prepared. We will win this battle, so don't lose face, keep your spirits up!"

Marshal Sengoku chuckled, watching as Bane retracted the dark power into his body. He nodded in satisfaction, then looked up at the sky again and uttered in a low voice, "Whitebeard."
