Blackbeard’s idea wasn’t wrong.
The only issue was that Whitebeard Edward Newgate and Garp teaming up were unable to suppress Uehara Naraku, and they even found it difficult to fend off Uehara Naraku’s attacks...
However, their willpower was strong enough...
Monkey D. Garp, covered in injuries, still stood tall, as if he had returned to the era when he fought Rocks...
However, the enemy he now faced...
Was a figure far beyond the grasp of Rocks!
A being with an extraordinarily powerful body and speed like light, possessing strength tens of tis greater than the world’s strongest man, Whitebeard...
And almost all the abilities of Logia-Type Elent Fruits!
Facing such a formidable enemy, how could they possibly defeat him?
The only reliance was on their unwavering will!
This answer sounded utterly ridiculous, yet now the willpower was the only support allowing Garp and Whitebeard to continue fighting...
The battle had actually just begun, lasting only a few minutes.
In fact, for Garp and Whitebeard, their combat was already nearing its end, as the intense clash made it difficult for them to withstand it all...
"Ice Spear... Armant: Entanglent!"
Uehara Naraku raised his palm, ice spears appeared around him, a spiral of pitch-black Haki entwining the ice spears!
Dozens of ice spears sped towards Garp!
Garp swung his fist, knocking all the ice spears away, and the spears pierced the ground at an angle, causing the entire surface to explode instantly!
This power...
Garp absolutely couldn’t ignore!
Even though he used his Iron Fist to deflect the ice spears, his fist cracked open with cuts, a result of high-speed collisions!
Garp took a deep breath...
Even though his body was nearly maintaining its peak youthful state, constantly using high-intensity Armant Haki collisions and full Observation Haki perception was an enormous challenge for Garp...
Yet their enemy...
Remained as relaxed as they were at the onset.
This battle had beco a one-sided crush.
As for the aging, even sickly Whitebeard, his condition was worse than Garp’s. Although he could use the Quake-Quake Fruit ability to counter Uehara Naraku’s attacks, it greatly depleted his stamina...
After all, with that level of attacks...
A mont’s slack could be fatal!
Uehara Naraku’s brow slightly furrowed, as light flashed at his fingertips, countless photons transford into specks of scattered light upon the ground!
This was the Glint-Glint Fruit ability!
As for Kizaru, the Glint-Glint Fruit ability user, he simply smiled lightly while watching, unconcerned that soone had surpassed him in fruit power developnt...
This kind of thing...
Kizaru had long been accustod to.
Whitebeard apprehensively clenched his fist, attempting to counter this photon assault when a blue Phoenix suddenly soared up, intercepting countless photons!
"Dad!"
Yet the Phoenix’s body was pierced by photons instantly!
It was none other than Phoenix Marco!
A group of Whitebeard Pirates’ captains finally couldn’t hold back any longer, jointly blocking the Seven Warlords of the Sea to let Marco rush to support their captain!
"Hmm?"
Uehara Naraku’s palm abruptly flipped, beams of light shot from his palm, blocking Marco’s path, trapping this Phoenix in a light prison!
"Marco..."
Whitebeard swiftly drew his Murakumogiri Greatsword, covering it in Haki, cutting through the light beams, rescuing his son from the light prison...
Whitebeard gripped Marco’s shoulder firmly, looking at the blood at Marco’s mouth, then at Marco’s gradually recovering body, he finally relaxed.
Whitebeard looked at Marco and said gravely, "Marco, I’ll cover you all, take everyone back!"
"Dad..."
"No more words, fulfill the captain’s orders!"
Whitebeard took a deep breath, continuing in a serious tone, "I’ll hold off this guy, you and Red Hair’s crew return to the New World, find a way to uncover Roger’s Grand Treasure!"
Whitebeard had long understood the situation.
The current situation was beyond his control, even for his life, it wasn’t guaranteed to defeat Uehara Naraku in front of them. The future of this world had already been announced to change ownership...
If one wanted to resist...
Only Roger’s ntioned Grand Treasure!
Of course, that might not be the way to defeat Uehara Naraku, but it is definitely news that will shake the world, ensuring that the freedom of pirates on this ocean will never end!
Their generation has already lost...
Sooner or later, the next generation of pirates yearning for freedom will defeat Uehara Naraku!
"Dad..."
Marco’s face showed disbelief.
"Go quickly!"
Whitebeard was as usual, grinning and showing a smile: "This is the last captain’s order, take everyone back to the New World, tell the world the Grand Treasure exists, tell the world that the pirate’s dream will not end!"
"Dad!"
Marco couldn’t help but grit his teeth.
In the next mont, Marco quickly transford back into the Phoenix. He had stayed on Whitebeard’s ship for over thirty years and never refused Whitebeard’s orders...
Clearly...
Marco already knew Whitebeard had made the worst plan.
Uehara Naraku did not stop all this. He even watched with interest as Marco flew away because he knew no one could escape from this battlefield.
Just when they were fighting here...
Under Akatsuki’s banner, an army of a hundred thousand had completely surrounded this place!
Not to ntion others, just Hundred Beast Kaido and BIG MOM, two of the Four Emperors, would absolutely not allow anyone to bypass their encirclent.
Let alone...
With Otsutsuki Kaguya in command.
"Let’s end it here..."
Uehara Naraku’s fingers ca together, and a laser beam pierced through Garp’s chest, finally causing the Navy Hero to fall completely on the ground!
After dealing with Garp, another laser beam flew from Uehara’s fingertips, splitting in mid-air to pierce Whitebeard’s shoulder and thigh, making this legendary Great Pirate involuntarily weaken!
But Whitebeard forcefully lifted his Murakumogiri, standing firmly in place, still with a smile on his face: "Gurarara... We’ve co this far, at least ask so questions before dying..."
"Want to buy ti for your sons?"
Uehara Naraku bluntly revealed Whitebeard’s intentions, and unbothered, continued: "Go on, let see if there’s any interest in answering..."
"So arrogant..."
Whitebeard glanced around the battlefield, looking at Uehara Naraku, grinning: "What is your relationship with the past Rocks?"
"..."
Uehara Naraku’s expression was delicate.
Clearly, this sentence reminded him of an unpleasant mory.
Uehara Naraku looked at Whitebeard, calmly speaking: "No relationship, if I find his body, there might be a new kind of relationship... A Great Pirate who once dominated the sea, I’m quite interested in making him part of my collection..."
Just as they were chatting...
Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach was barely able to contain himself.
Because with his vision, he had long seen through Whitebeard’s defeat, but did not expect Whitebeard to lose so quickly and so miserably, it seed impossible for both sides to suffer injuries; fortunately, Whitebeard was heavily wounded...
As long as he can absorb the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit, Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach will possess the power to contend with Uehara Naraku!
Moreover...
Teach indeed has so confidence.
Teach, during this ti, has familiarized himself with the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit to capture Devil Fruit ability users, as long as he can nullify Uehara Naraku’s abilities...
After all...
The state of Uehara Naraku, no matter how you look at it, this person is a Devil Fruit ability user... Coincidentally, Marshall D. Teach specializes in dealing with Devil Fruit abilities,
Most importantly...
Teach cannot bear for Whitebeard to fall at soone else’s hand, especially under these circumstances, making Teach particularly angry towards Whitebeard!
"Zehahaha... Let’s forget it..."
Marshall D. Teach slowly erged from the ruins, his eyes full of ambition: "I can’t wait any longer... Let’s seize the strongest Fruit ability from him and surpass him right here!"
"Hehehehe... Teach..."
Black Zetsu’s body erged from behind Marshall D. Teach, speaking with a sinister smile: "In this situation, should we make a move? That person easily defeated a group of top-tier fighters..."
"Of course, we’ll act!"
Teach slowly nodded, his gaze fixed on Whitebeard in front of Uehara Naraku, coldly instructing the White Zetsu behind him: "You go and hold back Akatsuki’s people, create so ti for to seize the Quake-Quake Fruit, the others co with to deal with Whitebeard..."
Marshall D. Teach erged from the ruins, laughing darkly: "Zehahaha... Dad’s already too old, the upcoming era is mine to take over! I’ll help resolve Akatsuki!"
"..."
The White Zetsus glanced at each other.
Each White Zetsu was sowhat foolish, yet it didn’t stop them from thinking Teach was the real fool.
