039 It looks like I stole your job?
"Kill all the pirates and don't let them escape safely!"
"To avenge our brothers who died in battle, kill!"
"Damn pirates, go to hell!"
"Catch that dragon's son, don't let him escape!"
The marines pursued the pirates relentlessly. Another intense gun battle ensued.
The fleeing pirates fell one after another. Despite having received Whitebeard's order to retreat, they were forced to resist under the relentless pursuit of the marines.
"Pops, I'm sorry. This is the first time I want to disobey your order!"
"Me too. Just let me go to another world and continue to follow you Pops!"
Under the marines' relentless pursuit, the pirates once again raised their guns and clashed with the marines.
On the ground, pirates and marines alike continued to cry and howl, overwhelmed by both agony and the reluctance to part with the world.
Everyone's desire to survive has reached its peak!
Coby could hear the cries of everyone in his mind, and the sounds were on the verge of making his head explode.
He held his head in pain, gritted his teeth, and the veins on his forehead were exposed.
It was evident he was in great pain.
...
Blackbeard witnessed this scene on the battlefield.
Sengoku and Garp observed as Blackbeard halted his frenzy and turned his attention to the battlefield.
Each of their expressions was stunned for a moment, and then they heard Blackbeard laugh and say,
"You all call me a bastard, but have you seen the battlefield now?"
"Is this justice?"
Sengoku and Garp expressions changed. As they stopped, the cries and sounds of fighting on the battlefield resonated clearly in their ears.
"Hear this charming voice?"
Blackbeard smiled.
"Ace is dead, so is Whitebeard. The war has not stopped; death is still ongoing. What about justice and evil? Now, everyone is crazily killing each other. Even if they win, everyone still longs for killing in their hearts!"
Blackbeard said lightly.
"Nonsense, we are killing evil pirates!"
"Right! You pirates don't have a single good thing!"
The marines around heard this and said angrily to Blackbeard.
"Isn't that right?"
After hearing this, Blackbeard's mouth curved slightly.
...
Then he looked at Coby. Sure enough, Coby couldn't stand the fighting and crying on the battlefield. He didn't know where he got the courage to run directly in front of Akainu and stretched out his hand to block his path!
Coby has lost his mind now. He just wants to say what he wants to say. He cries out with the loudest voice.
"STOP FIGHTING!"
"Coby..."
Garp looked at Coby, his eyes widening.
Coby's shout was very abrupt on the entire battlefield, and all eyes were focused on him at this time.
"Army of justice, stop fighting, you are wasting your lives!"
"Every soldier has a family waiting in their home. Our goal has obviously been achieved, but we still have to pursue the pirates who are at the end of their rope, continue this battle that should have ended, and now we are still facing those soldiers who can be saved. If you refuse to save people and continue to increase the number of victims, aren't the soldiers who have fallen now just like fools?!"
Coby poured out the words he had kept in his heart all at once. After speaking, he realized that the person he had blocked was Admiral Akainu!
But his words silenced all the marines present.
"Who are you?"
"Another few seconds of my time wasted. The Marines do not need soldiers with unhealthy views"
Akainu declared, raising his arm, which transformed into scalding lava.
The intense heat from Akainu's arm brought a look of horror to Coby's face.
At that moment, all eyes were fixed on Akainu, and suddenly, a burst of lightning erupted from Blackbeard's palm.
Lightning rushed towards Akainu at that moment!
His body was instantly penetrated by the electric force, freezing his fists in the air. His upper body then turned into lava, slowly sliding down…
"Blackbeard! Blackbeard!"
Akainu turned around to face Blackbeard, disbelief evident in his eyes.
He couldn't believe that Blackbeard intervened to prevent him from killing a Marine soldier!
"Black…beard..."
Not to mention Akainu, even Garp and Sengoku looked confused.
What kind of trick is Blackbeard playing?
Blackbeard laughed loudly and said, "There are not many people in this world who dare to tell the truth. I just want him to survive. There is no other reason."
"You're quite quick to take action…"
At that moment, Shanks' figure suddenly appeared next to Akainu.
If Blackbeard hadn't made a move, Shanks would have blocked Akainu's fist.
"Shanks!"
"Wasn't he still fighting Kaido just yesterday? Why did he arrive in Marineland so quickly!"
The sudden appearance of Shanks surprised everyone, adding to the chaos in Marineford.
"Zeehahaha, it looks like I stole your job, eh?"
Blackbeard grinned at Shanks.
"You are becoming more and more unpredictable Teach, no, it should be Blackbeard!"
Shanks looked at Blackbeard quietly, with no fluctuation in the expression on his face.
"Of course, you won't guess what I want to do, but I know what you are going to do"
Blackbeard responded with a casual tone.
"Oh?"
Shanks became intrigued.
"You're here to stop the war"
Blackbeard said.
After hearing his words, Shanks' eyes narrowed, and then he said: "Yes, I am here to stop this war."
"If we continue to fight like this, it will only escalate the losses for both sides without limit. If there's anyone left looking for trouble, let us be your opponents!"
Shanks approached the center of the battlefield, then turned to Blackbeard and asked, "What do you say, Blackbeard?"
"Why put on a cold act? That scar on your eye suits you well"
Blackbeard said with a faint smile.
Shanks's expression darkened, and Yasopp raised his gun, aiming it at the Blackbeard Pirates.
At the same time, Van Augur raised his gun, pointing it at the Red-haired Pirates.
Tension filled the air, ready to explode.
