I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Jinbe's immediate defection from the Seven Warlords of the Sea made Sengoku's expression a little unpleasant, but that was all.

This series of changes altered the Warring States period's expectations of war.

Beforehand, Sengoku believed that the navy had an overwhelming advantage. Later, he still thought that victory was not a big problem, but the casualties would be higher, and there might be the loss of elite vice admirals or even admirals.

But now, the Warring States period has realized the danger.

"Stop her!" Zhan Guo's expression changed drastically, and he shouted sharply.

With a loud shout from Zhan Guo, the other powerful warriors on the battlefield fell silent for a moment, their attention turning to Ah Ling.

Below the execution platform.

Chaton and Momousagi stood side by side. Both of them were candidates for admiral and had originally been blocking Law and Luffy's way. At this moment, their expressions changed slightly.

“Gion,” Chaton suddenly said.

"Leave this to me. You go to the execution platform at the back. The Warring States Marshal is there; it's safer there."

While Cha-tun was speaking, he leaped towards Ah-ling, unleashing a fierce vacuum slash with a Tempest Kick. However, for some reason, the slash veered off course, grazing Ah-ling before landing on a red graffiti-covered circular target on the ground beside him, tearing the target apart completely.

"Huh? What's going on?" Cha-tun looked dazed for a moment.

It wasn't just Chaton; in the few seconds it took for the Hades Cannon to fire, a large number of naval officers and soldiers around them, under Sengoku's orders, rushed towards A-Ling, forming a dense, overwhelming crowd.

With a flash of golden light, Kizaru approached again. This time, his expression was no longer relaxed. Golden light shone from his fingertips as he aimed at Rin.

But at that moment, a large figure stepped out in the direction he was pointing, revealing the figure of a fat panda from the Mink Tribe.

"A general? Looks like we're going to have to go all out this time." Fat Panda Rum suddenly sighed, looking a little regretful.

He took off more than a dozen bottles and jars hanging from his waist. These were all rare wines he had made from fermenting fruit, accumulated over many years and reluctant to drink them, but now he couldn't care less.

"Boss, you'd better make me a few more drinks to satisfy my craving later."

Rum's hands moved like lightning, throwing out various bottles of liquor from his waist one after another, which exploded in mid-air, spraying liquor everywhere.

"Kizaru, drink more lava!" Rum shouted.

A bottle exploded in mid-air, and molten lava erupted like a volcano, scattering in clumps and releasing a pungent sulfurous smell.

"Great Sword, Thousand Rain Wine!"

The wine-red sword light flashed for a moment, and streaks of sword light poured down from the sky like a fine downpour.

"Thor's Wine!"

The bottle cracked open, and the liquid inside transformed into a ball of plasma that exploded in the air, sending out streaks of electricity that swept across hundreds of meters in an instant.

Lightning, magma, and sword light swept in, and Rum unleashed all his accumulated power, causing the approaching Marines to retreat. Kizaru did not fight back directly, but transformed into his elemental form again to dodge.

The disposal of these stockpiled items cleared a large open space in front of Ah Ling, and no one approached her for a while.

But no matter how many rare wines were thrown out, they couldn't conceal the destructive and dangerous aura of the Viben Hades Cannon behind them.

"What is that thing? What has BABY5 turned into?" Doflamingo's gaze sharpened, and the arrogant smile on his face froze slightly.

At this moment, he was crouching on Diamond Jozu's back, and transparent puppet threads quietly extended from between his ten fingers, firmly suppressing Diamond Jozu and making him unable to move.

However, due to a slight lapse in concentration, Diamond Jozu beneath him, covered in shimmering diamonds, unleashed his immense strength, tearing all the puppet strings binding him apart. As blood flowed freely, he also broke free from Doflamingo's restraints.

Barrett's gaze sharpened as it landed on the Viburn Pluton, her eyes flashing with interest.

"That's really interesting..."

He had once asked shipwright Tom for the blueprints for Pluto, but the matter was dropped due to Sieg's disappearance ten years ago, and he ended up becoming Tom's apprentice instead.

Aokiji's expression changed slightly as he moved to try and get back to help, but the ice giant Barrett in front of him suddenly grew larger again and swept a punch towards Aokiji's back.

Previously, it was Aokiji who held Barret back; now it's Barret's turn to hold Aokiji back.

From the side of the battlefield, Roger raised his longsword to block Zephyr's iron fist, then suddenly turned to look at Ah Ling and Wei Ben, grinning.

"Has it finally come to this?"

From the moment Weiben transformed into the Hades Cannon until now, only four or five seconds have passed, but the powerful figures, including Roger, have all noticed this fleeting opportunity.

At that moment, a terrifying sense of oppression rose up from Roger.

He had unleashed his Conqueror's Haki, and his overwhelming aura pressed down on the entire battlefield, with streaks of dark red lightning seemingly flashing in the void.

As the Pirate King, Roger had reached the pinnacle of all three types of Haki. Now, with the eruption of Conqueror's Haki, it seemed as if the entire earth was shaking.

At this moment, Roger once again became the focus of the entire battlefield, his overwhelming pressure sweeping across all directions.

"Roger has finally arrived." Sengoku frowned, and an equally powerful Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted from his body. He was prepared to personally engage Roger in a clash of Conqueror's Haki to stop him.

Two powerful, oppressive forces collided in mid-air, seemingly crackling with dark red lightning. Even the clouds above began to split open with the clash of these overwhelming forces...

But just as his Conqueror's Haki erupted, he heard Barrett let out a cold laugh.

"That's interesting."

Barrett's eyes sharpened, and another burst of Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted. A visible shockwave swept across all directions from Barrett's center, and in that instant, it seemed as if the entire world changed color. He stood alone on the battlefield, his tall figure like a ghost or god.

With a fierce blast of Conqueror's Haki, Sengoku was immediately at a disadvantage, forced to retreat half a step.

In the world of pirates, there are countless characters who possess Conqueror's Haki.

However, within the Navy, excluding Higuma, Sengoku is the only person who possesses Conqueror's Haki.

Without Sengoku's obstruction, Empress Hancock, Doflamingo, and the others stood by and watched as the two extremely powerful Conqueror's Haki swept across the entire area without any hindrance!

Under the pressure of two terrifying Conqueror's Haki, the entire Marineford seemed to tremble slightly, and small cracks began to appear on the ground.

Pfft!Pfft!

One by one, the naval officers' eyes rolled back, and they lost consciousness. On the execution platform, the two executioners collapsed simultaneously.

Under the instantaneous pressure, tens of thousands of sailors were stunned and collapsed.

On the battlefield in front of Ah Ling, a large number of the navy soldiers who were blocking the bandits also fell.

"Little Hades Cannon! Arm it! Fire!"

The Hades Cannon was fully activated, its silvery-white barrel gleaming, and swirling electric light piercing the air.

boom!

A cone-shaped, jet-black shell shot out from the muzzle, tearing through the air and breaking the sound barrier in an instant, emitting a piercing and loud explosion, and shooting straight at the battlefield like lightning.

Boom boom boom!

First came a series of deafening explosions, followed by a burst of intense firelight, and a massive shockwave that swept in all directions, carrying with it a towering cloud of dust.

At that moment, the entire Marineford beneath our feet was trembling violently. The frozen glaciers, stretching for miles, cracked open amidst the tremors, and in the distance, the waves surged, crashing against each other and shattering into white foam.

As the light faded, the battlefield before us had changed dramatically.

From Ah Ling's location to the execution platform, half of the headquarters plaza was devastated, riddled with large and small pits, and the glacier had shattered and melted into seawater.

The execution platform still stands.

Sengoku once again transformed into the form of a giant Buddha, pushing his enormous palm forward. The golden light on his palm dimmed slightly, and his eyes behind his round glasses showed signs of fatigue.

Beneath him, Garp stood still, his palms outstretched forward, mimicking Sengoku's stance. He and Sengoku, using their combined Armament Haki, blocked the attack.

Click, click.

Behind them, a shocking hole, tens of meters wide, appeared in the wall of the naval headquarters fortress. Cracks ran along the edge of the hole, and shattered wall fragments fell to the ground.

"It's good that it's blocked..." Sengoku looked down at the battlefield, but his expression changed.

This Little Hades Cannon, enhanced by Armament Haki, was blocked by Sengoku and Garp, but it completely cleared the battlefield in front of Rin, and half of the headquarters fortress behind her collapsed.

The distance from the execution platform to Ah Ling's body was just a patch of scorched earth, littered with fallen marines. Cha Tun was also charred black and lying on the ground. At this point, there were no more marines to stop the bandits.

"call......"

Viben returned to human form and sat on her horse. After unleashing a strike as the Hades Cannon, she was exhausted and had no strength left to fight.

At this moment, her face was pale, her bangs were wet with sweat, and her fatigue was obvious.

But as she looked at the scorched battlefield before her, and then up at Sieg above the execution platform, a slight smile played on her lips: "Now, am I a qualified sword and firearm?"

Chapter 1144 Sacrificing Family for the Righteous

After the shelling, the battlefield fell into a brief silence.

Due to the impact of Roger and Barrett's Conqueror's Haki, many Marines were already unconscious on the battlefield before the bombardment began, powerless to retaliate and their bodies were never recovered.

Momousagi, who had just been ordered by Chaton to retreat to the execution platform, was still alive. At this moment, she looked down at the battlefield and was speechless.

Wei had already transformed into human form, but her strength had been completely drained by the attack just now, leaving her unable to fight.

Ah Ling was in slightly better condition, but she was still panting heavily. Her domineering aura had been greatly depleted, and she was not in good condition at the moment, showing signs of exhaustion.

“What a terrifying attack…” Gilman hesitated for a moment before continuing his explanation:

"This shell pierced through the battlefield and even affected the naval headquarters fortress behind the execution platform, causing it to be partially destroyed."

"Look, even the headquarters behind Fleet Admiral Sengoku was affected. Rather than saying Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Vice Admiral Garp together blocked that shelling, it's more accurate to say they together survived the bombardment..."

By this point, the navy's total strength was still greater than that of the combined forces of pirates and bandits, but a clear path had been carved out on the main battlefield leading directly to the execution platform!

Luffy was the first to react. He only had eyes for Ace on the execution platform and completely ignored the terrifying cannon fire he had just witnessed. He was the first to rush out.

Luffy infiltrated Impel Down with Sabo, but did not participate in any battles within Impel Down. He was not highly regarded on this battlefield at Marineford, and at this moment, he was full of energy and in excellent condition.

His skin was slightly red, and hot sweat evaporated into steam on his body. Luffy had activated Gear Second and was speeding across the battlefield, becoming a blur.

As long as there are no elite naval forces blocking the way, Luffy, at his Gear Second speed, could cross this empty, smooth road in just a few seconds.

Luo and the others behind them then realized what was happening and quickly followed.

"How could this happen?" Blackbeard Teach's expression changed drastically several times.

His gaze swept over Garp and Sengoku on the execution platform, but finally returned to Whitebeard, who was covered in blood, and his expression quickly turned firm.

"These marines are all useless... There's no time to lose, attack together! Kill Whitebeard as quickly as possible!"

Blackbeard called out to his companions.

Previously, they had been following closely behind Fujitora and the others, using guns to attack Whitebeard from a distance, and hadn't dared to get close at all.

After all, Blackbeard is too much of a target of hatred; anyone who gets even slightly close will definitely be targeted by Whitebeard.
