Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

His words drew everyone's attention back to the extraterrestrial visitors, which made Bucky secretly breathe a sigh of relief. He now wanted to find a quiet opportunity to escape, because if he stayed any longer, he might expose his weakness.

Chapter 1378 The Final Battle (The End)

"Boom boom boom..."

The battle on the central island continues, whether it's the fight between Reina and the Supreme Lord, or the one-against-four battle on the side of the Destroyer Lord, the fighting is extremely fierce.

However, one thing puzzled Reina: since the Destroyer and the Guardian were clearly at a disadvantage, they could have retreated while fighting, or changed the mode of combat to a free-for-all, which would have been more advantageous for them.

However, they showed no intention of backing down, nor did they intend to take advantage of the situation.

Reina knew that what was here was not their original form, so death was not frightening to them.

Perhaps this is why they fought to the death and refused to retreat.

"It's been so long since I last saw you, Zhencai. Your strength has actually increased again. Are all the people on your planet this terrifying?" The Venerable One wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Reina, and asked.

At this moment, Reina was not so calm either. At least after merging with Hyōrinmaru, he was constantly suffering. It was not easy for two people to live in one body.

Moreover, as a Venerable-level expert, the Venerable Master possesses considerable strength, making him a formidable opponent for Reina.

“We can’t afford not to increase our strength!” Reina chuckled and said, “You are all too strong. If we don’t force ourselves to improve, won’t we be enslaved by you?”

"Hahahaha... It's alright, you might win this time, but one day we'll come back stronger." After saying that, the Venerable One charged towards Reina again.

Reina dared not be careless and immediately focused his energy to fight the Supreme Master again.

The clouds in the sky had disappeared due to this enormous energy, and the sky around the entire central island had turned black, with countless flashes of lightning and thunder converging in the air.

"Will there be any problems with Kuzan?" While trying to find a way to destroy the energy shield, Sengoku was also worried about the battle between Aokiji and Fujitora.

"Hahaha... Don't worry, don't underestimate Kuzan and Yixiao, they're very strong!" Garp said, laughing as he punched the energy shield.

"I know they are strong, but do you think the Venerable One is weak?" Zhan Guo was still a little worried, but they had not yet found a way to break through the light barrier, so they could not go to support them.

"See and Kill - Blazing Eagle!" The red-haired man took a deep breath and used his sword technique directly on the energy shield. A giant flaming eagle formed by the slash crashed into the energy shield, causing the entire island to tremble.

"It didn't break?" Whitebeard frowned upon seeing this and looked again at the energy shield blocking their way.

"Dad, step back a bit, let us handle this!" Vista took a deep breath, grabbed two rapiers, and prepared to imitate Shanks and launch an attack on the energy shield.

However, instead of retreating, Whitebeard stepped forward and placed his hand on the energy shield.

Just as everyone was surprised, Whitebeard closed his eyes. A moment later, Whitebeard let out a soft shout and suddenly opened his eyes. The energy shield in front of him began to vibrate continuously.

"Crackling sound..."

Cracks began to appear on the energy shield, surprising and delighting everyone.

"It's the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit that broke the energy shield!" Sengoku immediately analyzed the answer.

"Hahaha... Newgate, as expected of you! Now that the energy shield has been broken, I'll be going first!" The Golden Lion, who had been waiting for a long time, led his men and rushed in the moment the energy shield was broken.

In fact, there is nothing inside, except for a machine in the very center that looks like a nutrient solution.

However, that was the Golden Lion's original purpose.

"Don't open it!!" Just as Golden Lion was about to turn on the machine, Shanks suddenly shouted.

"Red-haired brat, you think you can stop me from getting the treasure? That's impossible!" Golden Lion ignored Red-haired and still turned on the machine.

A dazzling golden light shot into the sky, engulfing the strange spaceship above the central island.

The Venerable One and the Venerable One who were fighting both showed pained expressions when they saw the golden light appear.

"What is this?" Zoro asked curiously.

"I don't know, but Luffy's side must have made some progress! Didn't you see the pained look on the face of the Destroyer?" Sanji, with a cigarette in his mouth, exhaled a smoke ring and said softly.

"You... all deserve to die!" At this moment, the Venerable One suddenly went berserk, as if his goal was to kill everyone in front of him.

Powerful energy began to gather, and the four of them sensed the danger. They no longer held back and simultaneously unleashed their strongest attacks on the Venerable One.

The other Lord was calmer. He looked at Reina and said, "The battle that follows is none of my business. However, before I leave, I still have to finish my own things. Reina, until we meet again!"

After he finished speaking, the Supreme One also began to gather energy, which gave Reina a bad feeling.

"What the hell? You're planning to self-destruct?" Reina was shocked and tried to stop him, but then he discovered that a large amount of energy was also gathering from another direction on the island.

In an instant, Reina knew that the Venerable One was also planning to self-destruct.

"Everyone, retreat!" Reina took a deep breath and shouted.

At the same time, Reina began to release a large amount of icy energy, intending to freeze the Venerable One.

"Boom~~ Boom~~~"

The violent explosion could not be stopped. Even though Reina had done his best to create a huge ice shield, it was instantly destroyed into shattered ice by the explosion.

"Damn it, they actually pulled this trick on me~" At this moment, Reina had separated from Hyōrinmaru and returned to his normal human form. The entire island was split into three small landmasses due to the violent explosion, while the rest of the island was completely submerged.

The self-destruction of the Destroyer and the Guardian also caused heavy losses to all forces, with countless pirates, soldiers of the Coast Guard, and revolutionary army fighters dying.

Fortunately, Bartolomeo, the Barrier-Barrier Fruit user of the Straw Hat crew, used his ability to save a large number of people. Although he himself fainted due to the backlash of his ability, he still made a great contribution.

"Big brother, are you alright?" When Reina arrived at the center of the island, he found that the Whitebeard Pirates had also suffered heavy losses. Just that attack must have cost them at least one-fifth of their forces.

"The extraterrestrial visitor's spaceship has disappeared. It's estimated that they won't be coming back for the time being. We just need to keep an eye on them and prevent them from landing secretly!" Marco was in a better situation than the others, so he was the first to notice that the extraterrestrial visitor's spaceship had disappeared.

But at that moment, a golden light suddenly appeared, and then more and more golden light converged towards the sky.

"What is this?" Everyone looked up at the sky and saw that countless golden lights converged to form a golden human figure.

"What a bunch of useless trash. Two Venerables couldn't even take down a single planet. Fine... since that's the case, let me destroy you then~" The golden figure glanced at the crowd and said softly.

"Who are you?" Zhan Guo asked in a deep voice.

"The dead have no right to know," the golden figure replied dismissively.

"Everyone, attack together! This person is not simple!" Reina felt a powerful pressure from the opponent; the enemy's strength was probably even greater than that of a Venerable.

Without further ado, almost simultaneously everyone launched an attack on the golden figure in the air the moment Reina finished speaking.

However, the attacks from so many powerful individuals were easily blocked by the opponent.

"No, he's too strong!" Bucky thought as he tried to escape when he saw that their attacks were ineffective.

However, the Golden Lion showed no sign of retreating. He stared intently at his opponent, seemingly contemplating how to defeat him.

"Destroy!" The golden figure merely raised his hand and struck, knocking almost everyone to the ground. Only Luffy, who had activated Nika Mode, Garp of the Marines, and Reina managed to withstand the blow.

"Huh, you actually managed to block my attack. That's interesting. No wonder Mie and Yu Ye were defeated. So how many can you block?" With that, the golden figure attacked again, seemingly intending to annihilate them all here.

"Big brother, you take the rest of the group and retreat first. Leave this to me. His existence is limited. We just need to hold him off until his energy is depleted!" Reina discovered that the other party's body was just a phantom, which meant it was not the real body. Although it was powerful, it couldn't exist forever. Otherwise, if the extraterrestrial visitor appeared, they would be doomed.

Just as Reina guessed, he was a being more powerful than the Venerable One, but due to the existence of the World Tree, he could not descend to this world. His appearance now was only because the extraterrestrial visitors activated the device when they retreated, sacrificing all the power of fortune they had gained in this world, which allowed him to appear briefly.

"Let's go!" Whitebeard didn't waste any words. After leaving Reina, Garp, and Luffy behind, everyone began to retreat.

Dorrag glanced at the golden figure in the sky. His father and son were there, but he was not.

Because of the revolutionary army, he wasted too much of his time, which prevented him from reaching the top level of strength. Now, without the top level, he is not even qualified to go to the battlefield.

Reina and his two companions were locked in fierce combat with the figure in the air. Even with their combined strength, they could only barely hold their own. Once Luffy's Nika form disappeared, only Garp and Reina would remain, and they would likely no longer have the strength to threaten the opponent.

As the golden figure's silhouette faded further and further, and Luffy and Garp reached their limits, Reina took a deep breath and said, "You two go first, I'll take care of the rest!"

"You brat, don't try to be a hero. Leave this to me." Garp was already prepared to die. He was the oldest, and Reina and Luffy were the future of this world. They couldn't die here.

"I said, leave it to me!" Reina roared, tears of blood streaming from his eyes, but his Mangekyou Sharingan reappeared in his eye sockets.

Sensing the intense fighting spirit emanating from Reina, Garp grabbed Luffy and ran without a word.

"Grandpa, we can't leave Uncle Reina behind!" Luffy struggled to help Reina, but Garp punched him on the head and said, "Idiot, don't you see that kid? He's going all out. He's the strongest, maybe he can do it. Let's not stay here and hold him back!"

As Reina's Sharingan erupted, the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan slowly evolved into the spiral-shaped Rinnegan.

"How is this possible? It's the power of reincarnation!" The golden figure was shocked when it saw the power of reincarnation on Reina. Before it could even fight Reina, it slowly disappeared.

"So there are reincarnated beings here... Kid, I'll be waiting for you to come find me!" The golden figure left these words and then disappeared.

Three years later, the world of One Piece seems to have returned to its former peace. Pirates are still searching for the treasures left by their predecessors, and the Revolutionary Army is still on its way to overthrow the World Government. The Navy and the Pirate Army have officially separated, with one responsible for maintaining peace on the seas and the other vigilantly preventing the return of extraterrestrial visitors.

In a certain sea area of ​​the New World, the Whitebeard Pirates' Crescent Island is located here. Whitebeard is old and no longer cares about the affairs of the pirate crew, leaving the entire pirate crew to Marco.

As for the original first mate, the great pirate Akame Reina, he began traveling the world with Robin.
