But they gained nothing.

On the square, the breaths of tens of thousands of sailors seemed to freeze at this moment.

Among the three admirals, Akainu's gaze suddenly turned icy, and a murderous intent like magma surged in his eyes;

Kizaru raised an eyebrow, giving a "Oh dear, oh dear" look.

Aokiji remained silent, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Luffy and Sabo, as if wondering what kind of story lay between them.

Doflamingo's laughter rang out from the viewing platform: "Fufufu... This is really getting interesting~"

Jinbe suddenly stood up, his broad body as straight as a mountain, a complex light flashing in his fish-man eyes.

There was worry, determination, and an irrepressible admiration.

“Straw Hat Boy…” Sengoku took a deep breath, his face so dark it seemed like ink could drip from it, “Do you know what you’re doing?”

Luffy stopped shouting.

He simply raised his head, exposing his gaze from under his straw hat to the sunlight, staring directly at the towering execution platform and at the blond youth bound in shackles.

"Of course I know."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried clearly throughout the entire square.

"I've come to save my brother."

The moment the words left his mouth, Marineford fell into an unprecedented deathly silence.

You can even hear the whistling sound of the sea breeze passing through the masts of warships.

Sengoku's face turned ashen, and he abruptly turned to look at Garp beside him.

Garp, who happened to make eye contact with Sengoku and looked slightly guilty:

No, buddy?

What are you looking at me for?!

I didn't even know I had a grandson!

"Damn the Monkey family!"

Sengoku took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the urge to beat up Garp on the spot.

He turned his head, his gaze refocusing on the red-clad youth in the center of the square, his voice cold and authoritative:

"Monkey D. Luffy—I, as Fleet Admiral, order you to immediately return to the viewing area!"

"Otherwise, I will consider you an enemy of the World Government!"

Luffy didn't move.

"I told you—I came to save my brother!"

He raised his hand and placed it on the edge of his straw hat, his voice suddenly rising in pitch, booming like thunder across the entire Marineford region:

"Sabo!!"

On the execution platform, Sabo's body jolted violently.

That name—the name called out by that unfamiliar boy—was like a lightning bolt, splitting open a tightly closed door deep in his memory.

His pupils contracted slightly, and his lips moved, but no sound came out.

"I know you don't remember me." Luffy's voice suddenly became very soft, yet it carried an undeniable strength. "It's okay..."

"I'll make you remember!"

The moment he finished speaking, Luffy's figure vanished from the spot.

--shave!

A shockwave rippled across the square, causing the stone pavement to crack inch by inch!

In the next instant, Luffy appeared twenty meters directly in front of the execution platform. Three vice admirals from headquarters drew their swords to intercept him, and the swords flashed down like bolts of lightning!

"Rubber, rubber—"

Luffy twisted his body at an incredible angle, as if every part and joint had a life of its own, perfectly dodging the three sword strikes in a strange posture.

At the same time, he suddenly stretched his right arm backward, and the unique tension of the rubber produced a sharp buzzing sound in the air.

A faint humming sound emanated from Luffy's body, as if a furnace was constantly compressing energy.

"—Rocket launcher!"

boom!!!

The arm, compressed to its limit, shot out like a cannonball, carrying an impact force capable of shattering steel, and slammed straight toward the three lieutenant generals!

The three men simultaneously raised their swords to parry, but were directly blasted away by the terrifying force, crashing heavily into the sturdy building wall behind them.

Gravel flew everywhere, and dust filled the air.

Three spiderweb-like cracks spread outwards from the dent created by the three men's impact, causing the load-bearing walls of the entire building to groan under the strain.

Those three Vice Admirals were all elites capable of running rampant in the first half of the Grand Line.

At this moment, however, they were like three pebbles that had been carelessly thrown, embedded deep in the wall. The sword in their hands was broken into pieces, their tiger's mouth was split open, and blood dripped down their twisted arms.

They struggled to get up, only to find that the bones in their arms had cracked noticeably from the blow, making them unable to fight again for the time being.

In an instant, the entire room fell silent.

Chapter 215 The Revolutionary Army's Appearance

Upon seeing this, Akainu on the high platform felt a sudden chill and his pupils contracted slightly.

"Straw Hat Boy actually possesses such strength!?"

He couldn't forget that just a month or two ago, he had been thoroughly toyed with by V, the cyborg of the Straw Hat Pirates.

The humiliation of that battle was etched deeply into his heart like a branding iron.

From then on, Akainu's voice became noticeably softer in the Navy.

There's no way around it, a man has his pride!

To be played with by a pirate in front of the entire navy was an utter disgrace to him!

At this moment, seeing Luffy send three vice admirals flying with a single punch, the long-suppressed anger and resentment surged in his chest once more.

"Damn pirates!"

Akainu was furious, and scorching magma surged and boiled on his right arm, radiating a burning heat.

He suddenly stood up from his seat, clenched his right fist, and lava dripped down his fist, scorching black holes in the stone slab.

He was about to launch an attack.

However, at that moment—

A loud buzzing sound suddenly came from the ground throughout the entire port of Marineford.

The sound was deep and heavy, like some enormous creature awakening in the depths of the sea, or like the earth itself breathing heavily.

A buzzing sound came from deep underground, passing through layers of rock and seabed, making everyone's feet go numb.

On the square, tens of thousands of naval soldiers were stunned, their hands gripping their weapons unconsciously tightening.

The gunners on the gun emplacement looked at each other, not understanding what this sudden tremor meant.

"What's going on!?"

"An earthquake!?"

"No—the sound is coming from the port!"

The buzzing sound grew louder and closer—

It was as if something was breaking through the earth from the depths of Marineford!

Before the words were finished—

boom!!!

A huge crater suddenly appeared in the middle of the harbor.

The pit was pitch black and deep, but the edges were perfectly smooth, like a work of art.

"What's going on!?"

The navy's attention was once again drawn.

The gun barrels and blades that were originally fixed on Luffy suddenly turned towards the crack that had suddenly appeared in the center of the harbor.

Even Sengoku, standing on the high platform, couldn't help but twitch his brow.

The camera of the live Den Den Mushi, which was suspended in the air above the square, also slowly rotated under this sudden change, pointing the camera at the bottomless pit.

The next second—

A rhythmic and heavy mechanical sound came from deep within the pit.

Clang... Clang...

The sound was deep and powerful, with a rhythm unique to metal and machinery, like the heartbeat of some enormous creature, one beat after another, approaching from afar and rising in pitch.

The sound grew louder and closer—

The stone slabs near the pit entrance began to tremble violently, and small pebbles jumped and rolled in the vibration, as if something was rushing up from the abyss-like tunnel.

"Everyone back off—!"

A rear admiral from the Navy Headquarters gave a stern order, drew his sword, and watched the pit warily.

However, before the words were finished—

Rumble!!!

A huge black shadow suddenly shot out of the pit!

That was a sea train.

The streamlined steel structure of the front of the car reflects a cold light in the sunlight. The body is covered with traces of welding and reinforcement, and the front is equipped with sharp ramming corners, making it look like a steel behemoth that has broken through the earth and broken free of its restraints.
