Chapter 79: War Of The Best, Part-6# Death of A Legend...

Sengoku lined up another punch as Luffy coated his hand in haki and stopped it once again. The buddha only starred daggers at Luffy as they engaged in an assortment of punches at each other.

Sengoku went for another strike but Luffy was quick enough to grab either side of the giant's head and then crash it against the exterior of the execution platform.

He then used the time when Sengoku was trying to regain his footing to grab the arm of the buda and put it over his shoulder. Luffy then used all of his strength to lift up Sengoku and pull him over his shoulder and slam him into the ground in front of him.

The buddha was quick to get up but Luffy punched him square in the face which sent it hurtling back into the execution platformand by extension the stone wall behind it.

Rubble began to fall all over the golden buddha. As Luffy's punch had enough force to chip off a good chuck of flesh which revealed the form of the actual Sengoku beneath.

His head was bleeding from the injury. While Luffy and Sengoku was having a fight of their own, The background raged with gun fire and explosions.

Still until a certain laugh began to drown it all out. " Zehahahahahaha! " Voiced a man from the other side of the battlefield who had just now shown his face.

" The Blackbeard Pirates! " A marine voiced out.

Marco stopped evacuating and gritted his teeth, " Teach! " He spoke with venom.

" Zehahahaha! I'm glad I'm present at your death! Pops! " Blackbeard yelled out to the older Whitebeard as the older of the two gripped his Bisento.

" Teach. . ." Whitebeard spoke softly to himself as he sent an attack towards the pirate.

A fight then broke out between the Blackbeard Pirates and Whitebeard who would not let anyone's interference.

...

Back to Luffy.

Sengoku was panting heavily on the ground. But just as Luffy was about to finish the fight, five individual appeared in front of him and intercepted him.

Luffy was surprised because these five persons were none other than CP-0. He had never thought of such an surprised outcome.

But Luffy was surprised again as a very familiar figure rushed in at this moment. This was Garp who didn't participate in any activities until now except watching.

" Luffy...let Grandpa help you. These five are the agents of World Government. They are here to deal with you. " Garp snorted, " Humph, to think they are trying harm my beloved grandson in my presence. "

Then he grinned and said, " Now let me show you, why i am called the legendary Marine Garp The Fist. " Luffy also smiled, " Alright then. "

Luffy just stood at the sidelines while ready to intervene if anything goes wrong. But he was very happy, that his grandpa had decided to help him instead of Marines.

...

Back to Whitebeard:-

Within a few exchanges Whitebeard had Teach pinned on the ground.

" Stop it! I'm your son remember! Pops I'm your son! " Blackbeard proclaimed from his position as Whitebeard blasted him with the power of the Gura Gura no mi.

The attack sent a shockwave throughout the battlefield as it looked to be that Blackbeard was to be reduced to a pulp. The older of the two released his grip and went back into a standing position as Blackbeard remained on the ground, panting heavily.

" He's almost dead! " A Pirate yelled out

" Kill him! " Another said.

Whitebeard slowly began to walk over to the downed Teach, blood dripping down his chest and head onto the ground as he walked. Whitebeard was also fatally injured during his fight against two Admirals.

Edward Newgate then brought his arm back and was about to deliver the final blow, but as he was about to his Teach, the man had fired a gun into his gut.

" Kill him you guys! " Blackbeard ordered as each member of his crew took turns shooting and stabbing the great pirate repeatedly

The Whitebeard Pirates were all in shock at what just happened. " OLD MAN! " They all yelled out.

The gun fire continued for a few more seconds until all that could be heard was the clicking of the firing pins on their guns.

" I-is he dead? " Jesus Burges asked the crew as all of them kept a close watch on Whitebeard.

Shiryu nodded, " You could push him over with one finger if you want. " He educated Burges.

" It's not you. . . " Whitebeard began as Blackbeard flinched, with the rest of the Blackbeard Pirates raising their weapons up once again.

Blackbeard went wide-eyed, " Y-You're still alive!? " He exclaimed with pure shock.

Through heavy breathing Whitebeard continued, " The man Roger is waiting for. . . at the very least Teach. . .is not you. " He began.

" There has been a will. . .passed down from ancient times. . .and soon. . .someone will appear. . . carrying all of those decades of history on his back. . .and challenge the world to a fight. " He continued between heavy breathes. Immediately the fight between CP-0 and Garp also stopped as they also paid full attention to Whitebeard.

Whitebeard then looked up to look at Sengoku, " Sengoku. . .you guys in the World Government. . .all fear that immense battle engulfing the whole world. . .that will eventually come. I don't care myself. . .but as soon as someone finds that great treasure. . .the entire world will be turned upside down."

The words made Sengoku gasped and as he mentioned his words about the One Piece, Whitebeard looked over and made eye contact with Luffy.

" And someone will find it. That day will definitely come sooner or later. " Whitebeard then laughed a little to himself as Sengoku glared heavily at the old pirate.

Whitebeard then started to inhale and as he spoke all fighting on the battlefield ceased. "THE ONE PIECE..."

Everyone froze in place as they all looked on to see what the old man had to say.

" IS REAL!!!!! " He finished.

Everyone with the exception of a certain crew was blown away by that Whitebeard had just confirmed the existence of the One Piece.

" Damn you! " Sengoku yelled as this scene currently was broadcasted live.

Whitebeard then remained still as the rest of his life had left him, " POPS! " The Whitebeard Pirates yelled out as their leader had died.

" He is wrong! " Everyone turned to see Sengoku yelling out to all.

" There is no such thing as the One Piece! Roger was a fool and a drunk! He found nothing! Whitebeard is no different, he chose to be a fool as well and believe a drunkard's story! " The Fleet Admiral explained as the Whitebeard Pirates cried because of their leader's death and felt a burning hatred that Sengoku would insult Whitebeard.

Luffy also frowned. But he took out a transponder snail. He then turned around to face Sengoku, " You're the one who is wrong Sengoku! " Luffy declared.

" What are you on about brat! " Sengoku retorted with anger as Luffy took a breath.

" Whitebeard was right! The One Piece does exist! It resides on the last island! Laugh-Tale!" Luffy yelled out as everyone went silent with awe as some of the Whitebeard pirates were silently praising at Luffy's standing up for Whitebeard's reputation.

Luffy grinned, " Gol D. Roger had found the One Piece! and i can conform it as my crewmate Nico Robin the last survivor of Ohara can read Poneglyphs. " He went on, " We have already found out about two Road Poneglyphs. So my Pirate Brothers... "

" The One Piece... really exists....."

At this declaration the world almost stopped once again.
