Chapter 328 - War 22.

[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]

Third Person POV

Marineford, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Akainu did not have an easy time in the next few minutes fighting Luffy, as he flew with his face bleeding and exploding while Luffy punched him hard.

Once again the city began to be devastated, with Akainu's body moving aimlessly through the place. "This bastard..." Akainu murmured, looking at the spot from where Luffy had punched him.

"You're looking the wrong way," Luffy said as Akainu could not even sense his presence behind him, being struck on his back and plunging straight to the ground at that moment.

An explosion rose in the middle of the city while Luffy had not stopped; he put his fruit into full force, striking Akainu with haki, his punches became so powerful, and the number of them as he continued punching the admiral on the ground, became so powerful that it could be compared to the power of the Gura Gura no mi, while all of Marineford trembled with the huge explosion coming from behind the tower of justice.

This made the marines and pirates look towards that side, wondering what was going on there. "Akainu is in trouble..." Sengoku knew what was happening there.

"We are too... soon we will have to act..." Garp said as he watched Lucy and Robin along with the Whitebeard pirates positioning themselves at the location.

Sengoku nodded as he now saw Kong fighting against 5 people at the same time and was receiving pressure from all the opponents now. Whitebeard was fighting against Kizaru, and Kuzan was combating enemies when the red phoenix began launching countless fire rockets at him at that moment, while Reiju returned to her hybrid form and stopped in front of the admiral.

Things got even worse for the navy with Marineford shaking from Luffy's punches on the admiral while the first Shichibukai fell with Moria receiving a blow to the stomach from Jimbei with his karate and Alvida hitting him with her stretcher with haki, making him fall unconscious. While the two helped Lucy and Robin approach the platform, Hachi, Shirahoshi, and Bepo in their giant forms along with Chouchou and Nami were also fighting the vice admirals who tried to stop them.

"Take down the giant triton!!"

"Don't let the mermaid continue to throw that giant trident."

"Someone stop the bear!!"

"The three-headed dog is destroying everything!!"

"That winged thing keeps generating hurricanes!! AHHHHHHH!!!!"

The marines were feeling great pressure at that moment, as they just had to try to stop them under the shadows of the giants.

Kuma was sent flying at that moment, while Usopp, Chopper, and a few more commanders of Whitebeard's divisions were fighting against the Shichibukai.

Kuma emerged from the crater where he had fallen, with some of his clothes torn, holes in his skin showing his robotic form, with pipes and energy cables cut.

But he had no expression, while he opened his mouth to launch more attacks at the pirates, Usopp aimed his weapon as both shot rays. Chopper took advantage of this moment and punched Kuma, but he was quick enough to stop the attack and throw a wave of force at the doctor in his most powerful form, sending him backwards while he destroyed the square's ground with his body.

"Chopper!" Usopp got worried and began shooting more aggressively at the cyborg, Jozu took advantage of this moment and appeared next to Kuma, and Ivankov was also helping him at this moment, while he punched him with his diamond fist, hitting Kuma, as he flew back exploding the ground with his body.

"Did we get him?!" Ivankov asked, while Chopper recovered and moved away some marines who tried to arrest him while he was on the ground.

"No..." Usopp murmured while a moment later Kuma appeared, his body even more battered, he barely seemed to be able to stand, but as a cyborg, he ignored his pain.

However, at that moment, someone came flying at him, being none other than Hancock launching a flying kick without the Shichibukai being able to react, petrifying his arm and throwing him back breaking the ground again.

"Stop this!!" Bonney in Sabaody cried watching the scene on the big screen.

As Reiju began firing fire rays against Kuzan, nearby, Doflamingo was gritting his teeth running from the attacks he was receiving, attacks from all sides, Vista was also in the middle of the fight.

He was launching his threads, when Vista continued to cut them and even Vivi was launching wind slashes in his direction, Doflamingo had to start dodging the attacks, frowning.

Nojiko appeared at that moment, behind him as he used his only arm to defend against the next attack from the bomb woman, exploding with her punch and sending him to the ground before creating an explosion; at the same time, Baby-5 launched several missiles in that direction, further exploding the ground.

"Is Doflamingo being defeated too?!" Some marines exclaimed, stunned as that side was being destroyed, even amid the chaos from all sides with Luffy and Whitebeard making the marine headquarters tremble at that moment, they still paid attention to some specific fights, especially from their strongest allied forces.

Suddenly, the ground began to transform into thousands of threads, as Doflamingo unleashed his awakening, shocking everyone, while the pirates looked serious, with the entire area becoming several threads with Doflamingo emerging injured with yet another expression of anger.

The Pacifistas began to enter the square too, as Sentomaru led the Pacifistas, he looked at the scenario not good for the navy and began to act, putting the Pacifistas to attack the pirates' rear guard, with the fleet captains, who had no choice but to fight him to not let them reach Whitebeard.

Sentomaru looked at one specific fight and saw Reiju fighting against Kuzan, in a contest with no winner at this moment, he still remembered how the girl had kicked him that way in Sabaody, knocking him out with a move before destroying the Pacifistas, he still felt pain and decided to get even.

Reiju was contesting with Kuzan while she had an advantage against the admiral's element when she felt a rain of rays coming towards her at that moment.

"What?!" She exclaimed, putting her phoenix wing in front to protect herself as the attack exploded above her and flew backward with the force of the impact, hurting herself a little. Quickly, she used her power to heal, but could not help feeling a bit of anger from the attack from the side. At the same time, an explosion occurred suddenly behind her, while the ground was dug up with a line of dust rising, coming from the city where Luffy was fighting Akainu, as she was next to the execution platform.

Kuzan, who was also surprised by the Pacifistas' attack on his opponent, frowned with the explosion arising. And he even saw Reiju being caught by it and ended up right in front of the execution platform, at a point below it, before anyone else got there.

"What is happening here?" The surrounding marines looked back, being the last line between the pirates and the platform. Sengoku and Garp, still sitting in the admiral's chair, frowned with the smoke disappearing and an individual fallen on the ground at the tip of the explosion.

Akainu appeared and was all battered. Meanwhile, ahead, the shadow of Luffy carrying Reiju in his arms appeared. "How have you been, my wife?" Luffy asked with a small smile to Reiju, while she, already healed from the attack of the Pacifistas, just clicked her tongue and seemed to mock him, but gave a shy smile a moment later.

Luffy just smiled and stood her up beside him, while his attention returned to the man fallen in front of him. "Are you going to stay there all hurt?" Luffy asked as Akainu struggled to get up and looked at Luffy with hatred.

Luffy suddenly stopped smiling as he walked up to the admiral, with all the marines watching that frightened. "This is for you almost killing my sister to get at me in Enies Lobby," Luffy commented with a dangerous tone and quickly drew his pistol from his waist with a Stone bullet, aimed to kill Akainu at that moment while he squeezed the trigger.

However, he had to move away, jumping from there as two explosions occurred at the same time in the place where he was, with two people trying to attack him. Being Sengoku himself and his grandfather Garp, as Luffy regained his balance and moved away a bit, the marines also stepped back from them a few steps.

Luffy in his still hybrid form, looked at both frowning, since he really planned to kill Akainu there.

"We will not let you kill an admiral, pirate Monkey D. Luffy!" Garp immediately growled at Luffy, maintaining his determination as a marine. Luffy nodded in acknowledgment of who he was.

"Well, it looks like I'm going to have to fight both of you," Luffy commented as he clicked his tongue and stretched his neck. It was time to start the final phase of his plan.

Nearby, Reiju saw Admiral Kuzan approaching them and quickly unleashed her flames to stop him to let her husband fight the two alone, while Kuzan and Reiju battled once more. Marco also went to help her.

Jinbei and Alvida also joined the group leading the war, approaching Luffy with all the giant members, Robin, and Lucy.

"ACEEEE!!!!" Lucy exclaimed, approaching her brother still surrounded by two people set to execute him.

"Guys..." Ace murmured, seeing Luffy come so far to rescue him, while his father kept the marines busy, even hurting as he was already starting to get exhausted from this battle.

Whitebeard also saw the crowd forming in front of the execution platform and nodded satisfied with it, after all, they were finally almost reaching Ace.

"LISTEN EVERYONE!!" He shouted, grabbing the attention of all his sons. "HELP THE STRAW HATS WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT, ACE IS ONE STEP FROM BEING RESCUED!!!" He exclaimed.

"Yes!!"

"Ace's brother is at the last point on the platform, he is facing the fleet admiral and the marine hero!!!" The pirates soon began to exclaim, while Akainu saw a breach in front of him, turning into lava and entering one of the holes created by the earthquake fruit.

"He is good at making treacherous plans, but when it's time to die... he runs like a coward..." Luffy mocked Akainu fleeing behind Sengoku and Garp, as Luffy turned his attention to the two, being the last resistance of the navy for him to reach Ace.

He surveyed the entire situation and nodded. "It's time to finally end this," he commented, taking the key that Hancock gave him, while Robin, still advancing behind Lucy, who was beginning to punch the marines with the rubber fruit, saw this and nodded, preparing not to disappoint her husband.

Luffy was a bit exhausted from using Conqueror's Haki, so he couldn't try to knock down those marines at that moment, since he wanted to conserve strength for those two, knowing that he couldn't defeat them alone, but could certainly distract them long enough to free Ace.

Justice or family, that was what those three facing each other would decide in the next moments, as Luffy faced off the two preparing to fight.
