Suddenly, Ace opened his eyes.

But the strange thing was that even with his eyes open, he couldn't see clearly what was happening in front of him, and the strange illusion continued.

Dad was furious and fought a fierce battle with the navy, and eventually died in Marinford. What made him even more angry was that his great and proud dad was killed by Marshall Teach's shameless and despicable sneak attack.

Even the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was taken away by that guy.

"Tikki!!!"

"Dad!!"

Anger, sadness, and all kinds of emotions surged into his heart, making Ace extremely painful.

All of this didn't seem like an illusion at all, but rather like he was experiencing it himself. It couldn't be more real.

Suddenly, the scenery ahead became clear.

"Ace."

The deep voice made him look up suddenly, and he saw Xia Le sitting cross-legged opposite him.

"It's you!?"

Ace said in surprise.

"This is not an illusion."

"It's not a dream, it's the fate you were meant to experience!"

Xia Le said in a deep voice.

"destiny!?"

Ace gritted his teeth, the shackles shaking between his hands, and he clenched his fists.

"But the gears of fate are already turning, and it's changing silently."

“No one knows where it will end up.”

"The only problem is your choice!"

Xia Le sighed softly.

Ace bit his lip. He understood what the other party meant: "Don't worry, I won't be impulsive!"

Even though he closed his eyes, he still couldn't calm down.

The illusion of that experience seemed to have really happened. Everything was vivid in his mind, even everyone's expression was lifelike, as if it was embedded in his memory.

In fact, if the other party hadn't admitted it, he would have thought that he had traveled through time.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was already the early morning of the next day.

This was also the date of the originally planned public execution.

In other words, the time has come.

The most intense war in the world is about to begin!

In later generations, this war that swept the world and ended an entire era was named the Battle of Marineford.

And it was during this critical and tense period of time.

Advance into the city.

"Dong dong!"

"Boom boom boom!"

"Dong dong dong dong!"

The dull sound of drums suddenly came out, touching the hearts of everyone in the New Shemale Paradise.

"What happened to Straw Hat Boy?"

"The sound of his heartbeat is like someone beating a war drum!"

"Not awake yet!"

"The danger to life has passed, but Magellan's toxin is not so easy to remove, and it will take some time."

Ivankov, Lightning and others looked at Luffy lying on the hospital bed in amazement.

Rayleigh, who had been waiting silently on the side, suddenly stood up and walked over.

When he saw the other person's chest and the violently beating heart, his pupils suddenly contracted and a hint of solemnity and expectation appeared in his eyes.

"Come again?"

“That magical drumming sound!”

"It seems to be the sound of the drum of liberation, right?"

He clearly remembered that in the Sabaody Archipelago, when the will in the other party's body awakened, such drum beating sounds were heard.

As the drums become more intense and beat faster, the power of awakening emerges.

"Will that unknown will from eight hundred years ago appear again?"

Rayleigh murmured.

"Dong-dong-dong-dong!"

The drums still sounded, coming out in a steady, powerful voice.

Gradually.

"The toxins on the straw hat boy have receded!"

"It's amazing, his body has developed antibodies that are immune to this toxin!"

"He is about to wake up!"

The time of waking up was beyond everyone's expectations. In just a moment, Luffy, lying on the hospital bed, opened his eyes.

"Where is this place?"

"Rayleigh, are you the one who saved me again?"

Luffy said blankly.

"This time, the one who saves you is not me, but them!"

Riley said with a smile.

Ivankov and others immediately came over excitedly and introduced themselves to Luffy. In just a moment, they became familiar with Luffy.

Rayleigh stood aside, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He noticed that Luffy's heart was still beating strong in his chest.

But this time, the will hidden in the body did not react at all, as if it had disappeared. No, it would be more accurate to say that it had merged with Luffy.

"The awakening of the Rubber Fruit?"

Rayleigh narrowed his eyes.

“This is truly a miracle!”

According to legend, there is a soul or will residing inside the devil fruit. When the power of the user reaches a certain level and it matches the will and soul inside the fruit, it will trigger the awakening of the fruit.

And Luffy's strength is obviously not up to standard yet.

"Is it because of the appearance of Joy Boy that he was able to master this power in advance?"

Rayleigh smiled.

Chapter 287 Public Execution Day

The first rays of the rising sun shone down, casting a dazzling golden light on Marinford.

As one area after another was quickly illuminated.

Visible to the naked eye, a vast expanse of white ocean also clearly appears in the eyes.

That was not the white ocean, but the navy in white naval uniforms who had already taken their positions in Marinford.

You can hardly find any vacant area. Every corner of Marinford has been filled by the navy.

From the sea surface of the naval bay, the patrol warships around the Gate of Justice, and the area around this fortress, they were all filled with the navy.

A breeze blew by, and a few seagulls looked down curiously, but when one of them looked up, the sharp eyes frightened them, and then the bird's body became stiff, and it fell straight down.

"boom!"

The sound of the seagull falling startled the staff who were fiddling with the live broadcast equipment.

Looking at the seagull lying straight in front of them, they couldn't help but choke and sweat appeared on their foreheads.

"The air is so suffocating that even the birds flying in the sky can't stand the oppression here."

One of the reporters said tremblingly.

"Are you kidding? This is the most heavily guarded and most powerful fortress in the entire world!"

"Look at that dense sea of ​​people. Every spot is filled with extremely elite warriors, and the military ranks on their shoulders are all above the school level!"

"This stunning and spectacular sight is almost unprecedented!"

Another reporter was excited and thrilled.

What day is today?

The day when the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' Second Division, Ace the Fire Fist, was publicly executed.

Similarly, it will be the day of the largest and most far-reaching war in this era.

"The place where we are is just a narrow commanding height in Marinford. For the convenience of filming, the Navy allowed us to use it after going through layers of review."

“But even if it’s just this one place, looking down, the number of people I see is still beyond imagination!”

The leading man took a deep puff of the cigarette in his mouth and said in a deep voice.

In his sight, at a glance, he saw six general-level officers.

Such general officers are rarely seen in their daily lives. They are powerful and influential people in the navy, and are the backbone of the navy.

"Hurry up and install the equipment!"

"I can't wait to broadcast everything here to the world!"

The leading man said excitedly.

What a magnificent and heroic battle! Being able to carry out such a mission would be something he would be proud of in his future life.

"Yes!"

The others nodded and took quick action.

Specifically, they are a news organization under the Navy, performing civilian duties and not very combat-capable.

But when it comes to live broadcasting, they are professionals.

However, after just a moment of debugging, the live broadcast equipment was operating normally.

"The video Den Den Mushi is ready!"

“The images can be transmitted to the whole world in real time.”

The staff member took a deep breath and spoke loudly.

"Open the screen!"

“Everything here should be known to people all over the world in real time.”

"Let them see how powerful and majestic the navy is!"

The leading man shouted.

The workers all nodded, then slurred their breath and turned on the image transmission button.

In an instant, the scene of the Navy Headquarters at this moment was received by the whole world.

Images appeared instantly on huge display screens placed in various countries, island centers, and population centers.
