212 Admiral Power

In the epic clash between Whitebeard and the Marines, even though the battle takes place in the sky, their mighty forces unleash havoc on the sea below, creating powerful waves that roll relentlessly.

"Garp, you're here too. Isn't there someone handling Shanks?" 

Whitebeard inquired.

"Bwahahaha, of course you are our top priority, just let me accompany you to do warm-up, I hope you don't get too angry."

Garp laughed.

"Guurararara. Why not? I'd love for you to help train my crew too" Whitebeard laughed as well.

"Don't think I don't exist."

Kizaru declared. In an instant, he fired a powerful beam of light, but Whitebeard swiftly countered with a forceful vibration.

He shattered it into pieces with his large naginata and grumbled: "Monkey, don't be so impatient."

"Yeah, hasn't the battle already begun? I can't wait to dive in" 

Kizaru questioned eagerly.

"Yes, it's already started."

He saw Garp leap into the sky, hurling a fiery iron fist at Whitebeard once more.

A sudden punch struck Whitebeard's chest. While the immense power didn't faze Whitebeard, but it sent shockwaves through the surrounding space.

It seemed as if Whitebeard had triggered the quake-quake fruit power, but in reality, it was the incredible might of Garp.

With this overwhelming force, the space distorted. Whitebeard smiled and then launched his counterattack.

He watched as Whitebeard swiftly soared through the sky, messing up Garp's attempts to lock onto him, while also dealing with Kizaru.

While flying, Whitebeard threw a punch into the air, and the space where his fist connected seemed to shatter like glass, leaving broken marks.

At the same time, a powerful shock emanated from the shattered space, slamming into Kizaru's light form with great force.

"Ouch, that really hurts" 

Kizaru exclaimed, wincing in pain.

The impact forced his light body to sustain a wound, and even in his fruit state, he couldn't immediately bounce back.

The shockwave carried Haki, or else he wouldn't be feeling the pain from the vibrations.

"It looks like I'll need to put in more effort" 

Garp sighed. He cloaked his fist in Armament Haki and jumped into the sky once more.

In spite of the pain, Kizaru pressed on and launched an attack, his body transforming into a flurry of light, flickering across the sky.

It refracted like beams of light, moving at such a speed that even Whitebeard couldn't track it with his gaze.

Finally, Kizaru flashed right in front of Whitebeard, concentrating formidable fruit power on his right leg and coating it with Armament Haki.

In the blink of an eye, Kizaru swung his leg at Whitebeard with a rapid motion, as in a speed of light

At the same time, Garp's mighty iron fist landed on Whitebeard's back with great force.

Whitebeard harnessed his vibration force to its full extent, consistently countering the strength of the two attackers.

"This? he has such fine control over his fruit ability."

Garp couldn't help but be a bit surprised as he sensed numerous subtle vibrations on the point of contact between his fist and Whitebeard's back.

These shocks are as small as acupuncture, but they are numerous, and they gather to collide with Garp's power.

Similarly, Kizaru assaults on Whitebeard were no exception. Amidst these vibrations, their attacking force was consistently neutralized.

In the end, their maneuvers were all nullified, making both Kizaru and Garp to swiftly retreat upon realizing the unfavorable situation.

They were both extremely cautious, ensuring Whitebeard had no opportunity to counterattack.

In that moment, Whitebeard seized the chance to glance at his crew and noticed that the current situation was a bit bad.

Initially, Whitebeard believed Marco could handle the Marines, considering he could restrain both Garp and Kizaru.

Among the others were miscellaneous soldiers and a couple of Vice Admirals, yet Whitebeard hadn't anticipated his pirate crew being at a disadvantage.

The Marines had advanced weaponry, clearly coming well-prepared, even equipped with seastone.

As a result, some of the Devil Fruit users on Whitebeard's side found themselves somewhat limited.

Moreover, a good number of crew members shared a mindset that Whitebeard's will solve all their problems, lacking the intense fighting spirit needed against the Marines.

As a result, the Whitebeard pirate found themselves steadily retreating, with some casualties along the way.

So, Whitebeard felt a bit angry, and, of course, the reasons behind his frustration were complicated.

"Garp, are you here to prevent me from meeting with Red Hair? I believe we can settle this here"

Whitebeard's expression turned grave, signaling that he was ready to bring the battle to a conclusion.

"Whitebeard, are you really going through with this?" 

Garp asked cautiously.

Whitebeard remained silent, but he abruptly flew toward Garp.

First, he swung his big naginata, unleashing a powerful sword aura with tenfold strength.

Garp, known for his fiery temper, didn't dodge; instead, he faced the attack head-on.

Seeing Garp, they observed him confront the incoming sword energy head-on, dispersing it effortlessly with a single punch.

Yet, Garp felt a sharp sting in his fist, and without pause, Whitebeard continued to attack.

Focusing the vibrational power in his fist, he landed a solid punch on Garp.

The punch sent a powerful shockwave, causing the waves to relentlessly batter the marine warship.

Seizing the moment, Kizaru launched another attack on Whitebeard, his legs flashing as they swept out once more.

Suddenly, a vibration barrier materialized behind Whitebeard, blocking Kizaru's surprise attack.

However, Kizaru's leg instantly shattered Whitebeard's barrier, showcasing its formidable strength.

"That's impressive" 

Whitebeard remarked, genuinely amazed.

Kizaru's Light Fruit is truly remarkable; its speed rivals that of light, and the combination of speed and power makes it doubly formidable.

However, Whitebeard's Shock Fruit is no pushover either, and in an instant, his Conqueror's Haki unleashed its power. Amplified by his tremor fruit power

A strong wind pressure suddenly erupted from Whitebeard, instantly creating a massive storm on the sea.

The sea storm rapidly expanded in all directions, as Whitebeard, relying the force of his Conqueror's Haki, momentarily subdued Kizaru.

Following that, Whitebeard promptly employed the vibration force to seal off the surrounding space, trapping both him and Kizaru in a confined area.

"I need to beat you first." 

Whitebeard said lightly to Kizaru.

Whitebeard wasn't in the mood to continue fighting with them. However, confronting the simultaneous onslaught of two formidable opponents, even Whitebeard found it challenging.

Therefore, Whitebeard used the vibration force to separate them so that the battle could be resolved as quickly as possible.

"Well, the space is quite cramped now" 

Kizaru maintained his lazy demeanor, but there was a hint of unease in his tone.

Kizaru's fruit isn't ideal for close-quarters combat; not only is it limited to moving in straight lines, but it's also unsuited for confined spaces.

Simultaneously, there's no acceleration over distance, limiting the application of his fruit power and preventing any significant advantage.
