Chapter 14 : Chaos at Marineford

[BOOM!

Facing the densely packed Marines in the plaza, Whitebeard raised Murakumogiri in his hands and slashed with great force!

Suddenly, the sound of cracking echoed, and dense cracks appeared in the air. In the next second, a terrifying shockwave followed.

The incredibly tough ground of the plaza shattered, sending countless Marine soldiers flying, only to fall like dropped dumplings.

And right at that moment, Admiral Aokiji descended from the sky. With a wave of his hand, a fearsome glacier surged toward Whitebeard, engulfing him in an instant.

The cold mist cleared, revealing Whitebeard encased in a massive dark blue ice, frozen like a statue.]

"Completely frozen... defeated?"

Numerous individuals in the pirate world found it hard to believe.

Seated on his throne, Aizen chuckled lightly, seemingly not worried in the slightest.

On board the Moby Dick, Whitebeard appeared composed, while Marco curled his lip in disdain.

[Indeed!

The pirates were tense, yet in less than a second, a clicking sound resonated.

BOOM!

Countless ice fragments soared, and Whitebeard reappeared unscathed. The next moment, Aokiji was beside Whitebeard in an instant.

And Whitebeard seemed to have anticipated it, raising his sword at the precise moment and piercing Aokiji in an instant.

Excited smiles appeared on the faces of the surrounding pirates.

According to their understanding, even if you possess the Logia fruit, a sword infused with Haki passing through your heart renders you vulnerable.

Aokiji was defeated!

However, Whitebeard didn't smile.]

In the Shinigami world, Aizen's eyes shimmered with interest.

"What acute perception. He preemptively evaded danger and carved a substantial opening in his chest. It appears to penetrate, yet no harm was done."

In the world of One Piece, Aokiji, who observed the scene, sneered.

But there were also many weaker observers, baffled by the seemingly foolish act of the Marine Admiral thrusting himself onto a large sword.

Luffy, standing on the deck, furrowed his brows. He sensed something was amiss, though articulating it was elusive.

At the Naval Headquarters, Sengoku nodded with satisfaction.

"The use of Kenbunshoku Haki is impeccable."

The screen continued.

[Confronting the wound piercing his body, Aokiji laughed instead of displaying anger. He gripped the broadsword firmly with both hands, and ice promptly extended from the blade, covering Whitebeard. Simultaneously, four ice spears exuding an unending chill materialized and lunged at Whitebeard.

At a critical juncture, Diamond Jozu, whose timing remained uncertain, slammed into Aokiji with his head.

The ice structure crumbled, and Aokiji emerged, a trace of blood escaping his lips.

Evidently, Diamond Jozu had managed to wound him this time.]

At the Naval Headquarters, within the conference room, Sengoku furiously addressed Garp: "Borsalino is at it again!"

At that moment, Kizaru on the scene hadn't the opportunity to intervene.

But this mess resumed!

Garp appeared helpless, as if it weren't the umpteenth time he'd encountered this. A sigh escaped him, followed by a swing of his hammer.

As for Kizaru... Well, he had already disappeared once he recognized the situation was awry.

With Diamond Jozu departing and dragging the injured Aokiji along, Whitebeard pressed forward.

In the sky, Marco unfurled his wings of flames, intending to descend and rescue Ace.

Yet, Garp promptly struck him with a punch!

At the Naval Headquarters, Sengoku nodded in satisfaction.

Garp remained dependable.

Meanwhile, Luffy was overpowered by a Vice Admiral and was sent tumbling into Whitebeard's vicinity by Kizaru.

Sengoku was rendered speechless. Luffy could be easily defeated, yet this predicament persisted.

Elsewhere, Garp heaved a sigh of relief. The scene was quite pleasant!

Whitebeard entrusted Luffy to another and raised his sword, striking once more.

Simultaneously, a dark red light materialized, with Akainu standing atop the blade's edge, preventing it from being swung.

The immense momentum transformed into a gust, and in the subsequent moment, the two simultaneously thrust their fists forward.

Scarlet met white.

The aura emitted by the two tore through the air, distorting the world's colors.

The terrifying energy centered on their fists erupted, sweeping outwards and igniting waves of intense explosions.

In this instant, both Marines and pirates fled in terror, fearing entanglement.

"An astounding battle. I yearn to join!" Zaraki Kenpachi sat cross-legged on the ground.

Such a battle, observable but unparticipable, proved torturous. Yet, he found himself unable to look away.

In the world of Demon Slayer, Muzan Kibutsuji's face turned pale. The mere momentum displayed on the screen caused profound discomfort.

And within "Hueco Mundo," Aizen sighed, "The human physique remains frail, vulnerable to aging."

The screen continued.

At this juncture, Whitebeard's body trembled suddenly. The power emanating from his fist rapidly waned, and he collapsed.

Observing Whitebeard's old ailment resurfacing and blood seeping from the stab wound, Akainu seized the opportunity.

In the blink of an eye, Akainu was beside Whitebeard, delivering an incredibly forceful magma-infused punch that instantly pierced the opponent's chest.

Numerous pirates found it hard to believe, yet some powerhouses acknowledged Whitebeard's substantial strength.

The wound that the sword had driven through his internal organs proved dire.

Simultaneously, due to their concern for Whitebeard, Marco and Jozu fell prey to Kizaru and Aokiji's onslaughts, enduring severe blows.

While he was vulnerable, finish him!

Countless Marine soldiers attacked as if their lives depended on it, aiming to inflict further damage upon Whitebeard.

For a moment, Whitebeard was engulfed by Marines, his surroundings obscured.

Then, a thunderous sound erupted.

"Just because you all want to kill me!"

"I am Whitebeard!"

BOOM!
