One Piece: True Several Thousand Hands, rampaging across Marineford!

correct.

That was at that time.

As his power grew, so did his ambition. He loathed anyone who stood in his way and wanted to eliminate all those who stood in his way.

In the past years.

Wald encountered exceptionally powerful opponents such as Newgate and Shiki, which made him realize that he could not be invincible on his own. He then built a pirate ship that suited his abilities and worked with his crew.

The purpose is to better navigate on the high seas.

The truly crucial turning point has occurred...

Six months ago, several attacks resulted in the deaths of several veteran members of the pirate crew, causing him to lose his rational judgment and frantically destroy all the islands he encountered, launching attacks on powerful enemies he had fought against.

They believe that these are the people who did it.

Top-tier pirates share a common rule: they generally do not choose to ambush the crewmates of other top-tier pirates.

This rule is not explicitly stated.

But very few top-tier pirates have broken through it.

To reach that level requires extraordinary courage and conviction.

Throughout the entire story, Wald cared deeply for his crewmates. Compared to Luffy, Kahn and the others showed no less affection for their companions.

He just never knew how to express his feelings.

As captain, Wald was too concerned with his authority and didn't want anyone to contradict him, but his crew... was what he cared about most. How could he forget that?!

It was caused by the betrayal of those few people.

Can……

Did any of your other partners betray you?

They don't have any!

I was wrong!

I was the one who forgot our ideals and went astray. I'm sorry, brother. Let this good-for-nothing younger brother do one last thing for you!

Wald asked, "Why didn't you make your move earlier?"

Kahn replied, "There's no need."

"I won't be grateful to you!"

Wald's eyes flashed with reminiscence as he said, "Many of my officers had followed me for years. Rage and power clouded my judgment, and the deaths of several of my crewmates completely robbed me of my reason, leading me to commit such insane acts. Although I have hurt some people, I would never have gone that far. The members of Roger's Pirates were like a lump in the hole that brought out all the evil within me..."

"Hey! White-haired Asura! If you didn't die by my hand, then cut Roger into a million pieces!!!"

His life force transformed into flames, burning fiercely. He reigned supreme among top-tier fighters with his physical skills and Devil Fruit abilities, possessing unimaginable control over his body.

Any monster that reaches this level.

The heyday.

Few people would choose to provoke them; when they fight to the death, few can withstand their power.

"My life is right here! Do you dare take it?"

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Kahn was waiting for his opponent to be at their strongest, otherwise it would have been a waste of time.

"Waaaaaah!"

He has lost everything.

We must fight to the very end for our fallen comrades!!!

Dying here is the best end.

"Remember this! I am Bundy Wilder from the Bundy Brothers!!!"

Wald's conviction and spirit reached an unprecedented level. He concentrated all his energy and spirit in his fist and launched a fierce attack, smashing hard at Kahn without any fancy moves.

This seemingly simple punch embodies willpower, killing intent, domineering spirit, unwavering conviction, and indomitable spirit!

On his deathbed.

He poured his entire life's energy into a single punch.

One punch can define a lifetime.

He can only throw this one punch in his entire life.

Chapter 257 The Final Revenge: The Birth of a New Legend (Part 2)

That punch.

He exhausted all of Wald's energy and spirit, gathering the strongest spirit he had ever possessed.

Everyone present felt that unwavering conviction.

Bang! ! !

Kahn blocked the attack with the blade of his sword, but not completely. The force and will transmitted through the sword were unbearable, and half of his body exploded from the force.

It cracked on the spot!

"..."

Shiki's eyes bulged out in an extremely exaggerated way.

So frightened that even her entire demeanor changed.

He was clearly unaware that Cain's Devil Fruit had awakened and granted him immortality, and thought he had been killed by Wald with a single punch.

"Belief and will are indeed quite idealistic, but without a strong enough belief and will, it is impossible to reach the top and become one of the strongest people in the ocean."

Kahn reappeared.

He was blown apart by Wald's final punch in the Hive Sea.

He drew his sword.

All the suppressed anger and murderous intent merged with an unwavering belief.

A sword was swung out.

The sky and the sea yielded, one splitting open, the other opening.

The mighty sword energy, stirring will and belief, surged into the distance.

They cut through the pirate ship that had flown a great distance and was now stationary on the sea, taking the lives of the remaining members of the Wald Pirates.

Under this sword strike.

Already scarred and battered, they were no match for this attack fueled by unwavering faith and will.

There is only one possible outcome.

dead!

"I admire your last will, but my heart is still filled with hatred. As for the lives of your remaining companions, they belong to me."

Kahn withdrew his sword and stated, "At least you thought you saved them before you died, which is a good ending. 'World Destroyer' Wald, I will personally cut off Roger's head. That bastard won't die so easily."

Afterwards, he relaxed completely.

The objective of establishing the Hive Sea battlefield has been achieved.

It's time to go.

The decision not to behead Wald may have been guided by the opponent's final conviction.

And Wald.

he died.

He died fighting in the Beehive Sea for his own dignity and pride, and for his last comrades.

After that punch, seeing Kahn blown to pieces, Wald's last breath also dissipated. There was no need to keep him hanging on. After seeing his companions die one after another, Wald no longer wanted to live and had lost all will to live.

In his view, he had already accomplished his mission of protection by seeing off a few of his companions in the end.

"Heh~ Hahaha!"

Shiki's loud laughter rang out as he stepped forward. "You little brat, you're not so easy to kill after all. To be honest, that bastard's last punch really scared me. That punch was powerful."

“This guy is strong. At his strongest, he was no weaker than you. It’s just that his beliefs and will gradually became distorted, which made him weaker. Shiki, you might not understand what I’m saying, but I initially considered Wald.”

Kahn's Four Seas War God Plan is a plan to bring great power to an individual, using four top-level experts to conquer and suppress the four seas, and create the Four Seas Alliance.

As for the list of the four strong individuals...

He considered many people, including "Chocolate" and "World Destroyer" Wald. They were very strong. Although Chocolate was a little weaker, his influence in the West Blue was deeply rooted.

Wald's strength is sufficient.

in memory.

Kahn remembered that this pirate was considered a decent guy among the other vicious pirates.

He was elevated from a group of morally bankrupt pirates.

He had read the intelligence about Wald; basically, all those he had eliminated were hostile forces or people he had gotten involved with in battle. He hadn't killed for the sake of killing, so he didn't plan to deal with them.

Until half a year ago, 'World Destroyer' Wald suddenly began a killing spree without any reason. It was at that time that he developed murderous intent and planned to get rid of this great pirate.

Or wait for the navy to handle it.

He lent a hand.

As a result, the destruction of Dengol Island led to his discovery that those bastards in Roger's pirate crew had orchestrated the whole thing.

It brings out the evil in people's hearts.

The members of Roger's pirate crew were all experts.

I really don't know if these bastards have even brainwashed themselves. Their real identities are the most secretive lackeys of the World Government, and everything they do is completely unreliable.

"what?!"
