"Zehahahaha~"
"This battlefield is really lively~" Blackbeard laughed heartily.
"Hm?"
Hearing the voice from behind, a Navy Vice Admiral instinctively turned around, then his pupils contracted as he said: "These guys are... the Blackbeard Pirates!!"
"What?!"
Hearing the Navy Vice Admiral's words, others imdiately focused their attention on Blackbeard, clearly not expecting this guy to appear here.
"Not just that, there are also so once famous great pirates!"
"Vasco Shot, Avalo Pizarro, Catarina Devon, San Juan Wolf, and the forr Impel Down head jailer Shiryu!"
"Every one of them is a heinous criminal imprisoned in the sixth level of Impel Down!"
Hearing the Navy soldiers' words below, these pirates whose nas were called burst into wild laughter.
"owhahahaha, are you ready to face your nightmare, Marines!" Avalo Pizarro laughed loudly.
After scanning this group of villains, Sengoku fixed his gaze on Blackbeard and said: "Bastard, how did you get here?"
"Zehahahaha, we have our own thods of course." Blackbeard laughed heartily.
Thanks to Lafitte's Hypnosis Technique, they easily accomplished what they wanted!
"The Blackbeard Pirates."
iser, who had stopped walking, turned to look at Blackbeard and said: "Why did this guy co to Marine Headquarters?"
After leaving Impel Down, shouldn't he have gone sowhere else?
Could it be that this guy also has his sights set on Whitebeard's head?' iser thought to himself.
Thinking this, iser frowned.
"Teach..."
Staring at the man with the wide grin, Whitebeard's eyes erupted with intense killing intent.
"Zehahahaha, I've co to see you off, Pops!"
Hearing Teach's words, veins bulged on Whitebeard's face.
"Pops?"
"You have no right to call Pops!"
"So strict~" Blackbeard said.
Whatever, he wasn't really here to acknowledge his father anyway.
"I never expected my successor to appear at Marine Headquarters." Crocodile, standing at the ship's bow, stared intently at Blackbeard and said: "Is he also here for Whitebeard's head?"
Hearing Crocodile's words, Mr.1 said: "BOSS, then we..."
"I've lost interest in Whitebeard." Crocodile shook his head.
If Whitebeard could leave this place alive, he might still entertain the idea of causing trouble for the old man.
But now the other party is almost dead!
So he no longer had any desire to confront him - after all... defeating a Whitebeard in this state would be aningless.
Mr.1 fell silent for a mont upon hearing this, then nodded without saying anything more.
"This guy has been to Impel Down?" Buggy frowned as he stared at Blackbeard. "Then why didn't we see him there?"
Could it be... this guy entered Impel Down only after they had left?
Thinking this, Buggy fell into deep thought.
His subordinates, hearing Buggy's words, imdiately grinned and said: "Maybe he was afraid of Captain Buggy's reputation, so he didn't dare to et Captain Buggy."
"That's right, he must have been too scared of Captain Buggy's fa to show himself!"
"Yahahaha!"
Hearing his subordinates' words, Buggy imdiately put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily.
"Exactly!"
"That must be it!"
"Yahahaha!"
Mr.3:...
Mr.3 gave Buggy a speechless look, not knowing what to say.
Then, he fixed his gaze on Blackbeard's face and thought: 'The poisonous wall on the first level must have been taken down by them.
Fortunately, that was the case, otherwise they wouldn't have had the chance to rush to the first level.
"Just don't know what this group's purpose in coming here is," Mr.3 murmured.
Glancing at the Den Den Mushi still broadcasting nearby, Mr.3 thought: 'Maybe they ca to make a na for themselves?
Thinking this, Mr.3 fell into deep thought.
"Isn't that guy the new Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea?" The reporters on Sabaody Archipelago said while staring at the man appearing on the screen. "Why would he appear here?"
"Maybe... he ca to join the battle?" One reporter guessed. "To kill Whitebeard?"
"Don't joke around, that's clearly not the case."
If Blackbeard really intended to participate in this war as a Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea, he wouldn't have appeared only at this mont!
Moreover, this guy brought out those terrifying criminals from Impel Down,
This clearly ans he's opposing the Marines!
"Then he ca to help Whitebeard?"
"That's even more impossible." A reporter nearby shook his head. "Don't forget, Fire Fist Ace was captured by him."
"Then what does he an?"
Neither helping the Marines nor helping Whitebeard... What does he actually want to do?
"Not clear...
"Maybe he has an even more terrifying plan."
This Blackbeard who suddenly appeared at Marine Headquarters might beco a variable affecting the outco of this war.
"Gehihihihi, so this guy is that Blackbeard?" Moria stared at Blackbeard's arrogant face and said: "He does look sowhat different."
To be able to recruit those once famous great pirates as subordinates... This guy is definitely not simple!!
"This guy probably ca for Whitebeard." Absalom said.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because killing Whitebeard might make him the next Four Emperor."
"The next Four Emperor?"
Hearing this, Moria restrained his smile, then sneered and said: "Let's see if he can even survive against Whitebeard first."
Did he really think that just because the old man is dying, he can be easily handled?
Don't joke around!
If you underestimate that old man, just look at what happened to Akainu!
Absalom fell silent for a mont upon hearing this, then nodded and said, "You're right."
Although the old man looked like he was on the verge of death, he still possessed imnse power!
"Dammit, I should have gone too. Then I'd have had a chance to assassinate Whitebeard!"
Capone Bege, staring at Blackbeard on the screen, veins bulging on his face.
If he could assassinate Whitebeard at this mont, he would definitely make a na for himself across the seas!!
Damn it!
Law, hearing Capone Bege's voice from a distance, shifted his eyes slightly to glance at him, then murmured, "Assassinate Whitebeard?"
How naive!
Did he really think the Whitebeard Pirates were pushovers?
Shaking his head, Law averted his gaze.
Rayleigh, who had been staring at Blackbeard's face for a while, furrowed his brow and said, "This kid..."
"What's wrong?" Shakky asked, looking at Rayleigh with confusion. "Did you notice sothing?"
"Not really, I just recalled sothing," Rayleigh shook his head.
"What is it?"
"Buggy told that this guy nad Teach is strange—it seems he doesn't need to sleep," Rayleigh pointed at Blackbeard.
"Doesn't need to sleep?"
"Yes," Rayleigh nodded. "Buggy watched him for three full days and nights, and this guy never closed his eyes."
"So Buggy thinks he's a monster."
Although strong fighters like them can battle continuously for days, they certainly couldn't do that as children!
So... this guy called Blackbeard might genuinely have sothing unusual about him.
Upon hearing Rayleigh's words, Shakky was rendered speechless.
Staring at soone for three days and nights?
Just who is the real monster here?
Little Buggy, capable of watching soone for three days and nights, probably isn't a simple character either.
Thinking this, Shakky fell into deep thought.
"Shiryu, you bastard!"
Sengoku glared at Shiryu, who was smoking a cigar, and said angrily, "What did you do to Magellan?"
"And what's the current situation at Impel Down?"
Hearing Sengoku's words, Shiryu's lips gradually curled into a smile.
Then he said, "Our presence here... already answers that question, Fleet Admiral Sengoku."
"Dammit, don't tell Magellan is..."
"If you want the details, go confirm it with Impel Down yourself," Shiryu replied.
Watching Shiryu's arrogant deanor, veins bulged on Sengoku's face in anger.
Just then, a communications soldier ran over from a distance and reported, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku! We've just received word that an unauthorized warship has passed through the Gates of Justice!"
Hearing the soldier's report, Sengoku fell silent for a mont, then looked at Blackbeard's group and said, "It's them, isn't it?"
"Zehahaha! That's right, it's us!"
"It seems we have the Blood-Eyed Ninja to thank for this," Sengoku said with a grim expression.
If only he had sent soone to close the Gates of Justice earlier—then Blackbeard wouldn't have been able to exploit this loophole!
Upon hearing Sengoku's words, Blackbeard's laughter abruptly cut off, as if he'd been choked.
"Blood-Eyed Ninja?"
Glancing at iser watching him from afar, Blackbeard frowned and said, "What does this have to do with him?"
Wasn't it Lafitte who hypnotized the Marines to open the gates?
"Did he not do it?" Sengoku frowned.
"Of course not!" Lafitte stepped forward. "The Gates of Justice opened because I hypnotized the Marines in the power room before leaving Marine Headquarters, making them grant passage to any warship they saw!"
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to enter at all!"
This was his doing, not so damned Blood-Eyed Ninja!
"Hypnosis?" Garp frowned. "Hypnosis again, huh."
It seed there were quite a few people in this world who had mastered hypnotic abilities.
But this guy probably wasn't as skilled as that iser kid, after all... that boy could hypnotize a Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea mber!
"Dammit, what a miscalculation," Sengoku gritted his teeth. "I never expected you to exploit such a loophole."
"Zehahahaha! All thanks to becoming one of the Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea~" Blackbeard laughed heartily.
It was precisely because he beca a Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea mber that he could enter Marine Headquarters unimpeded to execute his plan!
The thought made Blackbeard laugh even more joyfully.
"So, releasing these prisoners was your ultimate goal?" Sengoku said.
"Zehahahaha!"
"Exactly!" Blackbeard raised his hands and laughed. "All previous preparations were for this!"
Recruiting subordinates in the New World would take too long, so... he needed these long-infamous pirates to serve as his crew!
This way, he could claim a Four Emperors throne in the shortest ti possible!
Now... all that remained was to obtain the Tremor-Tremor Fruit power from Whitebeard! Blackbeard scread internally.
With this thought, Blackbeard fixed his gaze on Whitebeard, his eyes gradually turning manic.
At that mont, Whitebeard raised his arm, coiling the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit around his fist.
"None of that matters now!"
"Prepare to die, Teach!"
"Crack!"
"BOOM!!"
The terrifying attack tore through the air, shattering the atmosphere and instantly creating an overwhelmingly powerful shockwave!
"Whoosh~"
"BOOM!!"
The devastating shockwave sent all Marines in its path flying before violently crashing into the execution platform behind them.
"BOOM!!"
With a single strike, the execution platform was completely obliterated!!
Watching the platform shattered by Whitebeard's attack, the distant Marines paled in horror.
"D-did he finish them?!"
"Not sure..."
Taking a direct hit from Whitebeard would at least leave them severely injured even if they survived!!
"No... these bastards aren't dead," a Navy Vice Admiral said with a grim expression. "They're still alive!"
His Observation Haki could clearly detect their presence.
Not a single one of them... had died!!
"Nyahahahaha, that was close!" Avalo Pizarro laughed wildly.
"It seems Whitebeard has truly grown old."
"Mmm~"
"Just thinking about taking this guy's head makes shiver with excitent," Catarina Devon said.
"You're absolutely right, wahahaha!"
At that mont, Blackbeard flung away the massive boulder pressing down on him and climbed up from the ground.
"Zehahaha, that was a truly rciless attack, Pops!!!" Blackbeard said.
If his reaction had been even a mont slower, soone would have been killed!!
"Marshal," a Marine Commodore standing beside Sengoku said, "Should we..."
As he spoke, he made a throat-slitting gesture, suggesting whether they should eliminate Blackbeard and his crew as well.
"Don't do anything unnecessary," Sengoku said. "Let's wait and see how things develop."
Although he didn't know what Blackbeard's purpose was in coming to Marine Headquarters, as long as he fought with Whitebeard, the Marines would benefit!
It would be best if they both ended up severely wounded! Sengoku thought to himself.
That way... they could take care of Blackbeard's crew as well!
Thinking this, a sharp glint began to shine in Sengoku's eyes.
