One Piece: Kaido's adopted son, opening the Eight Gates

"This kind of move might work against Yasopp, but if you want to use it against Captain Marco, dream on!"

The people below, whether from the Whitebeard Pirates or the Red-Haired Pirates, all remained calm and composed.

No one knew better than them how powerful Marco's regenerative abilities were.

Even if such a penetrating wound hits, so what?

Unless there are restrictions related to sea stone.

Otherwise, it's not worth mentioning!

"Special... Light Kill... Cannon!"

Lynn ignored them.

The announcement, delivered in a childlike voice yet carrying an aura of destruction, rang out once more!

call out--! ! !

A purple spiral beam of light, condensed to its extreme, suddenly shot out from Lynn's fingertips!

Almost at the same time.

Marco also kicked Susanoo hard!

next moment.

Susanoo completely collapsed.

Marco's chest was also pierced through by the Special Beam Cannon... Blood, mixed with blue flames, spurted out from his back!

There was no hesitation.

Marco quickly activated the regenerative flames within his body, attempting to repair his wounds.

however.

For the first time, Marco's usually somewhat languid face showed an expression of extreme terror!

He was horrified to discover!

The wound on his chest, pierced by the purple beam, was... it just wouldn't heal!

Chapter 45 Whitebeard admits defeat, Ben Beckman volunteers to fight!

The blue flames of regeneration, as if encountering their nemesis, throbbed futilely at the edge of the wound, unable to stop the flow of blood or repair the pierced flesh!

A strange, destructive energy lingered on the wound, constantly eroding his life force!

"My flames...why..."

Marco broke out in a cold sweat; he could clearly feel his life force rapidly draining away with his blood!

He had never experienced this feeling before!

The phoenix's regenerative ability is his greatest asset and the source of his confidence to roam the New World and escape unscathed from countless powerful enemies!

But now, that confidence has been shattered by that little baby's single finger!

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Marco tried to activate his Devil Fruit power again, and the blue flames surged even more fiercely, but the purple aura of destruction at the wound clung to him like a leech, making all his efforts futile!

Below, the smiles on the faces of the Whitebeard Pirates members who were cheering for Captain Marco instantly froze.

They also realized something was wrong!

"Captain Marco's injury... what happened?!"

"Why hasn't it healed yet?!"

"That blue flame... seems to be stopping!"

Panic-stricken voices rose and fell.

The officers of the Red-Haired Pirates also showed expressions of surprise.

"Even the Phoenix's regeneration is ineffective? What on earth is that brat's attack?!" Raki Lu even forgot to gnaw on the chicken leg in his mouth.

Ben Beckman, a cigar dangling from his lips, frowned, his eyes filled with seriousness.

Yasopp looked at the gruesome bloody hole in Marco's chest, then touched his still aching arms, feeling lingering fear.

How evil!

The methods of this demon child Lynn were completely beyond their comprehension!

"Ey."

Just then, Lynn's childish voice rang out again.

His dark, pure eyes calmly gazed at Marco, who was pale and swaying in mid-air.

Then, his chubby little index finger slowly lifted up once again.

At the fingertips, that heart-pounding purple energy began to condense, rotate, and compress once more!

Even more concise than before!

Even more dangerous!

"You...you're coming again?!"

Marco's pupils contracted sharply, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head!

His first instinct was to dodge, to escape this death zone!

However, the excruciating pain in his chest and the constant loss of his life force made his movements extremely slow!

Just then, the destructive purple beam of light was about to be unleashed once more!

"stop!!!"

A roar as loud as thunder suddenly came from the Moby Dick!

It's Whitebeard!

His burly body trembled slightly with anger and worry.

His hawk-like eyes were fixed on Lynn, bloodshot and piercing!

Whitebeard took a step forward, and terrifying Conqueror's Haki swept out like a tsunami, attempting to interfere with Lynn!

"Whitebeard, are you trying to renege on your debt?!"

Kaido's Conqueror's Haki struck instantly.

Protect Lynn firmly.

The two sides are confronting each other remotely.

The terrifying impact of Conqueror's Haki caused the world to change color!

"Dad! I can still fight!"

Marco gritted his teeth and said firmly.

Whitebeard took a deep breath, his chest heaving violently.

"This battle..."

Whitebeard's voice was hoarse and deep, each word carrying immense weight.

"We... admit defeat!"

"!!!!!!"

Shocking!

When the word "surrender" came out of the mouth of "the world's strongest man," Whitebeard, the entire sea seemed to freeze!

Time stands still at this moment!

Both the members of the Whitebeard Pirates and the officers of the Red-Haired Pirates frowned.

"Daddy!!!"

"No, we won't give up!"

"Dad, let me do it! I'll teach this brat a lesson!"

"I'll go! I'll risk my life to make this brat get the punishment he deserves!"

The members of the Whitebeard Pirates gritted their teeth.

Joz clenched his massive fists, making a cracking sound, and roared.

Captains like Vista also volunteered for the mission.

Giving in to a little kid wearing open-crotch pants?!

This is worse than killing them!

We must fight on no matter what!

"Dad!"

Marco wanted to say something more.

But Whitebeard raised his hand and stopped him.

Face and son's life.

He would rather choose the latter!

"White beard……"

Shanks looked at Whitebeard with a complicated expression.

He could understand Whitebeard's decision.

That kid's strength has indeed exceeded their expectations.

If the fight continues, Marco... is likely to be in grave danger!

"Whitebeard... he actually admitted defeat..." Yasopp murmured to himself, his shock beyond measure, while the humiliation of losing to a brat seemed to fade considerably.

Ben Beckman took a deep drag on his cigar, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and his eyes became increasingly profound.

The purple energy at Lynn's fingertips slowly dissipated.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for defeating a Shichibukai-level fighter (Marco, the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates)!]

[Mission 3: Defeat four characters of Shichibukai caliber or higher (2/4)!]

The system's cold notification sound rang in Lynn's mind once again.

Two more are needed.

"Orororororororo—!!!!!"

Kaido's deafening, triumphant laughter finally broke the oppressive atmosphere!

His enormous dragon head rubbed against Lynn's little face frantically, drooling almost all over Whitebeard's ship!

"Did you hear that?! White-bearded old man! Red-haired brat!"

"My son! He's invincible!"

"Your proud vice-president is nothing but a joke in front of my son! Oh ho ho ho ho!"

Every word Kaido uttered was like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into the hearts of the Whitebeard Pirates!

Whitebeard's face was ashen, and veins bulged on his forehead, but he ultimately held back.

If you're not as skilled as others, there's nothing more to say!

"Kaido, haven't you caused enough trouble?!"

Just as Kaido was getting carried away and preparing to continue his taunts,

A calm yet undeniably powerful voice came from the Red-Haired Pirates' ship.

Ben Beckman, with a cigar in his mouth, slowly walked out from the crowd.
