Garp rolled over, grabbed some dirt from the side with both hands, and buried his head in it.

Can't see me! Can't see me!

I've done my best. Didn't you see I'm lying here after being beaten? I'm almost seventy years old, and it's already quite an achievement that I managed to beat someone like this. What more do you want from me?

Aokiji glanced at his teacher out of the corner of his eye.

We've roughly found the direction.

It's fine as long as you show up but don't put in the effort.

Just then, Luffy and Ace rushed in his direction.

Aokiji remained very calm. He knew Luffy's strength well. Although Luffy was very active on the battlefield, at this time Luffy's strength had only been developed to Gear Third, which was commonly known as "a nobody".

As for Ace, the owner of the Logia-type Flame-Flame Fruit, he is indeed very strong, but the current Ace can only withstand two hits from an Admiral-level opponent at most. If he can withstand one more hit, it is definitely because the opponent is holding back.

But Aokiji had already found a direction for improvement by this time.

"fire punch!"

"Violent pheasant mouth."

The clash of ice and fire produced a large amount of steam, and for a moment the two were evenly matched.

Ace looked at his fist in disbelief. "Am I that awesome? I can go toe-to-toe with an Admiral?"

"Go to hell!" Yamabuki Hanajin rushed out from an unknown direction and delivered a flying kick to Ace.

When did you develop the misconception that you could go toe-to-toe with a Navy Admiral?

Adds a dizziness debuff: Anyone afflicted with this debuff will remain asleep until you leave this world.

Ace fell asleep with a snap, very quickly.

"Ace! How could you be killed by Aokiji! You died so tragically!" Luffy hugged Ace and wailed.

Aokiji's face turned pale: "Don't talk nonsense, it wasn't me, I didn't do it!"

Garp suddenly opened his eyes. "That brat Aokiji killed my grandson?"

Akainu nodded. "I always thought you were a slacker, but I didn't expect you to be so decisive and ruthless."

Yamabuki Hanajin chased after Luffy and slapped him on the back of the head: "Stop crying, take Ace and run! He's just passed out. You idiot!"

Luffy's crying stopped abruptly: "So that's how it is."

Just then, Sengoku dropped another bombshell: "The true identity of Straw Hat Luffy is the world's most notorious criminal, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, and the son of Monkey D. Dragon. Whoever captures him will be richly rewarded—capture him alive!"

Akainu looked at it and thought, "Oh, we've got a job."

"Aokiji, you killed the bloodline of the Pirate King. I'll leave Luffy to you." Akainu clenched his magma fist.

"Don't slander me! I definitely didn't kill Ace!" Although Aokiji's face remained expressionless, he was already cursing inwardly.

Just open your mouth to spread rumors, and you will lose your legs if you refute them!

I am truly innocent!

Chapter 889 (Main Text 892) Blackbeard Arrives, I'm Invincible

Aokiji realized that everyone in the room was looking at him, and his face turned green. "I'm innocent, do you believe me?"

Luffy carried Ace and ran for his life. Jinbe, Ivankov, and Inazuma were all covering for Luffy, hoping that he could get out of this battlefield as soon as possible.

Luffy is undeniably strong, but he's far from being a match for these monsters.

Lava spewed from beneath Akainu's feet, making him appear as if he were standing on a volcano as he charged towards the group. The entire group was chased relentlessly by Akainu, with nowhere to run or even descend.

"Straw Hat Luffy, you're staying here!" Akainu roared, throwing a punch at Luffy.

Ace's identity is indeed special. As the son of the Pirate King Roger, killing Ace in the Marineford War has special significance. However, Luffy's identity is also extraordinary. As the son of the leader of the Revolutionary Army, killing Luffy would definitely affect Dragon's state of mind.

One of the most important reasons why the revolutionary army has been able to develop to its current state is its ability to "survive".

No matter what earth-shattering event occurs, Dragon: Just watch me break a sweat, and that's it. Help me out? Impossible. Don't you understand what it means to prioritize the greater good?

Of course, although the Revolutionary Army seems cowardly and doesn't have much screen time, they have managed to stand up to the World Government for decades by simply "playing the victim."

For a pragmatist like Akainu, killing Luffy was more important than killing Ace. His goal had changed. Garp was sweating profusely. Among the many top fighters present, including those skilled in Observation Haki, they could all sense that Ace was not dead, but had only temporarily passed out.

But what's wrong with Akainu? Doesn't he understand the meaning of human relationships? Can you just kill the old leader's grandson like that? The old leader hasn't even retired yet.

Garp couldn't openly stop Akainu because of his position; otherwise, he would have jumped out and taken him down long ago.

Whether we can win or not is another matter, but let's fight first.

Yamabuki Hanajin was popping popcorn with the lava left behind by Akainu, and it looked ready to eat. She didn't care about the situation on the battlefield at all.

Seeing that Luffy couldn't escape, Ivankov finally made his move at the last minute.

"Akainu, don't underestimate the strength of a transvestite! Deathly Enchantress!" Ivankov attacked, and was instantly defeated!

Jinbe, seeing that Ivankov was unreliable, immediately turned back to fight Akainu: "Luffy, don't worry about anything, just take Ace back to Whitebeard, and you'll be safe then."

After saying this, Jinbe resolutely turned around and confronted Akainu, but was then knocked down by Akainu's punch and continued to chase Luffy.

Luffy had no idea when the candle-playing Third Brother and Buggy the Clown had joined his escape crew.

Third Brother noticed Luffy staring at him and felt a chill run down his spine: "Why are you looking at me like that? You don't want me to go fight Akainu, do you? Are you kidding me? I'm not turning back. Buggy, aren't you strong too? Hurry up and turn back to fight Akainu! Buy us some time to escape."

"Are you even speaking human language? Do you know how much my bounty is? 1500 million! Is that all the bounty I'm supposed to get to fight Akainu?" Bucky the Joker yelled madly.

The person behind me is a killer. I haven't found the great treasure yet, and I don't want to die in a place like this.

Just as Akainu was about to catch up with Luffy, his body was suddenly cut in half at the waist by the Desert Sword. At the critical moment, the mature female version of Crocodile appeared.

"Sakazuki! Long time no see!" Crocdale has become a mature woman, but she still has a cigar in her mouth, looking like a mafia boss.

"Crocodile, you dare to block my way?" Sakazuki stared coldly at Crocodile. To ordinary people, Crocodile was a formidable pirate, but to Akainu, he was just a matter of one punch.

Crocodile sneered, then turned and ran. He couldn't beat Akainu, so he just pretended. Did you expect him to fight Akainu to the death?

However, thanks to Crocodile's block, Luffy and the others had already run quite far away, and Akainu continued the pursuit.

Luffy's goal is Whitebeard. As long as they can get to Whitebeard's side, everyone will be safe. Yamabuki Hanajin discovers that due to his intervention, the timeline has changed slightly. Whitebeard has not had half of his head knocked off, nor has he been pierced. He is currently in good condition.

However, at this time, Sakazuki was like a mad tiger, moving freely as if there were no one around. It was clearly unrealistic for an aging and weakened Whitebeard to defeat Akainu in his prime.

Marco and Vista attacked Akainu from both sides, their attacks imbued with Haki. However, Akainu easily dodged using Observation Haki, completely ignoring them and continuing his pursuit of Luffy.

Whitebeard realized that most of his men had retreated, so he prepared to unleash his ultimate attack. He activated the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power, and in an instant, the sky and earth trembled violently, causing the entire Marine Headquarters to shake.

If no one stops Whitebeard, the Marine Headquarters will be sunk by him, and countless of those 100,000 elite troops will die.

Left with no other choice, Akainu had to temporarily abandon Luffy and Ace and turn to charge at Whitebeard. Whitebeard's stamina was not what it used to be, and after fighting for so long, he was already panting heavily.

But even a dead tiger retains its might, and besides, Whitebeard was just old, not dead!

As Akainu charged forward, Whitebeard raised his hand and threw a punch. The two world-destroying forces collided, and neither could gain the upper hand.

Whitebeard knew that he was getting old and couldn't hold out for much longer. There was only one way now: to use his old life to cover the retreat and buy time for his children to escape.

"I am a remnant of the old era! There is no ship in the New World that can carry me!" Seeing Whitebeard's heroic spirit, the morale of his pirates soared, and they prepared to fight the Navy to the death.

Suddenly, Garp and Sengoku looked towards the Marine Headquarters and saw a gigantic figure that had appeared behind the headquarters sometime earlier, even larger than a giant.

"A prisoner from Level 6 of Impel Down! The San Juan Wolf?" Sengoku was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

"We've been spotted! Captain! What should we do next?" the San Juan Wolf cried out into the distance.

Following the gaze of the San Juan Wolf, everyone saw a row of handsome young men appear.

The ruthless Blackbeard Pirates make their grand entrance.

Yamabuki Hanajin's eyes lit up; I've finally found my next victim.

Neither Whitebeard nor Sengoku expected that Blackbeard would return and get involved just as the great war was drawing to a close.

"Warring States! Whitebeard! The next era is mine! Come and fight me if you dare! Hahahaha!" Blackbeard laughed arrogantly.

Having eaten the Dark-Dark Fruit, I am now invincible. Challenge me to a duel!

Chapter 890 (Main Text 893) Blackbeard was beaten to death!

Having served in the Sengoku Navy for so many years, I've seen plenty of arrogant people, but this is the first time I've seen one this arrogant.

Since you've put it that way, here I come!

The first move of Tathagata Palm: Heavenly Buddha Descends to Earth!

In an instant, the Warring States period transformed into a giant golden Buddha, unleashing a massive shockwave that swept across the land with a single palm strike.

Blackbeard never expected this old bastard to be so unethical, coming to ambush him, an old man whose teeth have been knocked out!

The massive shockwave struck Blackbeard and the crew members behind him.

For a moment, Blackbeard seemed to realize how incredibly cute he looked.

However, after the shockwave passed, Blackbeard found himself completely unharmed.

"Hahaha! Sengoku, you really are just a good-looking but useless old man. Your attacks don't hurt at all!" Blackbeard laughed.

Zhan Guo's face was ashen. If that girl hadn't added a buff to his head, he would have killed her with one blow.

"Everyone retreat! I, as his father, will avenge Thatch!" Whitebeard stepped forward at this moment.

Ace has now been rescued, but the revenge for his deceased son, Thatch, the fourth division commander of Whitebeard, has not yet been taken.

The one who killed Thatch is Blackbeard, who is right in front of us.

The two of them are as close as brothers.

As a result, Blackbeard personally harmed his good brother of many years just for a Devil Fruit.

It's just a Devil Fruit. If you want it, you can just ask Thatch, and he might just give it to you.

Ultimately, Blackbeard's ambition had been suppressed for decades, and it finally erupted the moment he saw the Dark-Dark Fruit.

Blackbeard wants more than just the Dark-Dark Fruit; he wants to conquer the world.

To replace Whitebeard's position in the world.

Otherwise, even if he obtained the Dark-Dark Fruit, he would still just be a captain under Whitebeard.

"Old man! Since you want to avenge Thatch, then come on!" Blackbeard laughed wildly.

Whitebeard was already seriously ill, and after fighting for so long in the Marineford War, he was covered in wounds.

This is practically handing over a head to yourself for free.

Once I defeat Whitebeard and obtain the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, I will truly be invincible.

Seeing the two groups of pirates clash, the marines wisely stepped aside.

Dogs fight each other, so let them fight amongst themselves.

However, Yamabuki Hanajin had already sneaked up behind Blackbeard.

"Take this Little Evil God Flying Kick!" Yamabuki Hanajin kicked Blackbeard in the back. Blackbeard staggered from the kick and turned around to see Yamabuki Hanajin whistling.

"Why are you looking at me like that? It wasn't me who attacked you! Go and fight me, your dad's already here to beat you up." After saying that, Yamabuki Hanajin turned and ran away.

Inflicts a silence buff on the target: The buff effect prevents the use of any abilities other than physical combat, including Devil Fruits and Haki, all of which are sealed.

Yamabuki Hanajin revealed a sinister smile.

I really want to see something funny.

Whitebeard raised his hand and punched Blackbeard, simultaneously unleashing the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

The Tremor-Tremor Fruit possesses unparalleled destructive power, but the Dark-Dark Fruit is the nemesis of all Devil Fruit abilities. Originally, Blackbeard could have neutralized the Tremor-Tremor Fruit simply by activating the Dark-Dark Fruit's power.

but……

"Let me show you what the most vicious Devil Fruit ability in the world is! The Dark-Dark Fruit!" Blackbeard shouted.

Then, he really just yelled.

Nothing happened.

Blackbeard blinked. "Where's my Dark-Dark Fruit ability?"

"boom!!!"

Whitebeard gave him no time to react, his mountain-shattering fist slamming directly into Blackbeard.

"puff!!!"
