Chapter 322 - War 16.

[Chapter Size: 1900 Words.]

Third Person POV

Marineford, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Zoro continued exchanging blows with Mihawk across the battlefield, while new explosions erupted all around and nobody dared to intervene in their one-on-one fight. The sound of swords was heard and even overshadowed other sounds of the war. Meanwhile, Nami continued moving across the battlefield in her colossal form, launching attacks trying to clear the field for Luffy and the others who kept moving forward.

"Target that monster!!!" the sailor in the cannon cabins exclaimed as they launched cannonballs at Garuda's body, but Nami seemed unfazed as she continued to march across the battlefield after landing back on the ground.

In the sky, Yamato, transformed into her hybrid form, launched upwards as black and purple lightning surged towards Kong.

"This?!" Kong was surprised by this, recognizing Kaido's move, seeing it live.

"Thunder of the Eight Trigrams!!" Yamato yelled as Kong was caught by the strike and sent crashing to the ground, even darkening the day for a moment.

BOOOOOOOMMMM!!! 

An explosion occurred on the ground, while large blocks of ice rose up, and Kong emerged shortly after, now in a different form, in his hybrid form of the monkey king, his face bleeding a bit, but he seemed fine. He spun his staff and charged at Yamato.

Yamato saw him launch his distant attack as his staff rose to the sky and grew in size, charging towards her. She quickly tried to create an ice barrier, which was shattered as the staff glowed golden, and she used her Kanabo to defend herself before being hit hard.

She ended up colliding with a tip of the Marineford structure that formed a crescent moon, exploding the structure with various cannons and sailors there together.

"Tsk." Yamato was not having an easy time fighting Kong, with a line of blood running down her face. She quickly noticed the movement in the sky and jumped as the staff hit that side of her, dodging it, and the staff further destroying the marine structure, being tens of meters in width and length.

She charged again towards the enemy. "This is bad..." Luffy looked from below, as he saw Yamato struggling to deal with Kong, but he needed her to hold him off a bit longer, he would assist her as soon as he grabbed Ace in the square.

Lami was fighting within her space, while the Tenryuubito had a hard time trying to hit her as she teleported all over the place, easily.

"Stay still, inferior!" the Tenryuubito shouted trying to hit her.

"You guys are so annoying..." Lami murmured looking at that being, and in the next moment, appeared in front of him, and her blade started to try to cut one of his arms, but at the last moment, he disappeared with a flash of plasma, reappearing at a distance, but Lami reappeared behind him again, which made the Tenryuubito feel pressured as he tried to dodge the attacks.

Reiju was also gaining the upper hand against the Tenryuubito, while her phoenix flew over all of Marineford, she launched flames that went at high speed and pursued her enemy, who only had to dodge due to the intensity of the attacks and ended up quite frustrated, but could do nothing but flee, while his clothes were already a bit burned, even using haki to protect himself.

Kuina was in a fight with the Tenryuubito too, constantly launching ice blocks while the enemy launched air slashes, and she easily created an ice shield, it seemed a more balanced fight.

Meanwhile, Hugo exploded the ground trying to punch the Tenryuubito, who dodged his huge arm. "You are really strong, big guy, but you are still way below my level!" the Tenryuubito said as he advanced towards Hugo transformed into a titan.

He saw a punch coming towards him and also did not launch against the punch directly. "Deal with this!" he said as the titan's arm and the Tenryuubito clashed fist against fist, but in the next moment, Hugo's arm began to disintegrate into small cubes, destroying it from the fist up to the muscle of the arm, disappearing as thousands of cubes fell to the ground, while Hugo stepped back a bit, touching while rubbing the part of his destroyed arm, with a purple light touching that part.

"Hahahaha! No matter your size, big guy... You are just an inferior being," the Tenryuubito said to Hugo with a look of disdain, but in the next moment Hugo moved that arm with the destroyed one and it began to emit a glow and he started to regenerate instantly, and the Tenryuubito couldn't react as he returned to normal with the arm, and the Tenryuubito couldn't react as the enormous fist hit him, sending him flying into the square, exploding against some objects.

Sengoku and all the marines looked on in surprise at this, while in the midst of the debris, the Tenryuubito emerged, with his face bleeding and his helmet destroyed. "I am one of the most powerful holy knights, I can't simply be beaten by an inferior being!" He growled looking at the titan at a distance standing in the bay staring him down and exploded the ground charging at Hugo again.

"How dare you!" A voice emerged from the sky while a bruised Tenryuubito appeared, he was not in a very good state, while his opponent looked at him with disdain.

"You are just a false god, you cannot be compared to a true one..." Enel commented while looking at the Tenryuubito with disdain.

"How dare you say something like that!!" The Tenryuubito exclaimed as he tried to hit Enel with seastone bullets, but he was much faster, dodging the attacks and zigzagging through the sky until he reached him, before launching a point-blank lightning strike, of all the fights, this was the least unbalanced as Enel seemed to publicly beat the Tenryuubito, to show that the title of god belongs to him.

Meanwhile, Usopp like Zoro, who had eliminated the CP0 members with ease, decided to move towards the bay while letting his comrades fight their adversaries in the sky, and began generating rays of light flying across the battlefield while bombarding the entire place.

"Help!!"

"He's hitting us!!"

The marines exclaimed as everything around them exploded.

"He's advancing to the square!" Someone exclaimed while the Admirals on the ground looked at this with furrowed brows due to being surrounded by the commanders of Whitebeard's divisions.

However, Usopp felt a danger with his observation haki and quickly dodged as a ray of light advanced against him, with Kuma attacking him. Usopp looked at this and unfolded his wings launching a direct attack on the Shichibukai. Unaware of how a certain pink-haired girl was biting her clothes in frustration and cursing Usopp with all possible curses, while watching the rays hit her father.

However, in the last moment, Kuma raised both hands and made all the attacks hit his paw, before being launched back at Usopp, who had to transform into his hybrid form to dodge the attacks more easily, he landed on the ground shortly after, standing face to face against Kuma while pulling out his pistols.

"Luffy told me not to kill him, but I still have to get him out of the way," Usopp commented, not showing as much fear as before when he arrived at this war, after all, he knew he had to be brave and being the Straw Hat crew member closest to the square at that moment.

Doflamingo saw this nearby while looking at Usopp with a grim look, it was time for him to take revenge on this crew and he would start with that long-nosed one, while he began moving towards Usopp, but a huge shadow appeared above him, as a fist connected to the ground and filled with haki, tried to smash him and he dodged easily seeing the place where he was, being totally destroyed.

His gaze fell on the arm and it had grown from the ground, while at a distance, Robin crossed her arms with a dangerous look. "Be careful with him, Robin, he can cut limbs as he did with that giant fallen in front of the square, so I wouldn't recommend using your power," Luffy warned, he knew that Robin's power had a disadvantage against Doflamingo.

Robin nodded and made her fist disappear, while accompanying Luffy continuing to advance, Luffy analyzed the situation, there were still admirals and Shichibukais to face them, most of the vice-admirals were dealing with the fleet at the back of the war.

Suddenly, while he was still thinking about who to put to fight whom, a glow emerged, as Kizaru appeared a few meters above Luffy and launched an attack, while the flashes of light targeted the Straw Hats, a blue phoenix appeared while Marco absorbed all of Kizaru's attacks in the next moment.

"The first division commander protected the Straw Hats!" the marines exclaimed as Marco finished parrying all the attacks.

Kizaru clicked his tongue, but then quickly turned to the side as Luffy appeared, with his speed even greater than when they fought in Sabaody. Kizaru felt a punch the next moment without being able to react as he was forcefully launched backward, exploding against the ice ground, with Luffy stepping beside Marco.

"Incredible..." Marco couldn't help but murmur as he returned to human form, looking at the ground exploding with Kizaru, that attack was infused with haki, so it was certain that he had injured the marine admiral.

"So you are Marco, the phoenix," Luffy looked at him the next moment.

"Yes. And you are Monkey D. Luffy, Ace's brother and the one who has provoked us several times," Marco murmured, analyzing Luffy.

"So I'm more known to you than I imagined, but I hope you didn't take it to heart, after all, many months ago I captured Jimbei, now he belongs to my crew," Luffy said proudly as Marco raised an eyebrow and looked towards Jimbei approaching them.

"Is that true, Jimbei?!" Marco asked, stunned, while the Straw Hats also stopped.

"Yes. I made a deal with the Straw Hat and intend to fulfill it..." Jimbei spoke in a neutral tone.

"This is unexpected..." Marco murmured, as more people approached the group.

While Buggy continued filming the war with his fan club doing strange things, Ivankov saw Jimbei going to the square with Luffy and nodded. "Let's go there too, we can't leave the boss's son alone!" he exclaimed as all the members of Okamas Land ran after their leader.

"What shall we do...?" Mr.1 saw this and asked his boss.

"Tsk... we have no choice," Crocodile murmured as he faced two choices: to confront Whitebeard, but he knew that would be very difficult, and his gaze fell on Moby Dick, but the next moment, his eyes widened.

Since Squard was at that moment striking Whitebeard's chest, catching him by surprise, with a neutral look, while the entire battlefield saw this too, shocking almost everyone.

"So he did it..." Luffy murmured next to a frozen Marco seeing his father being struck by his own brother. Luffy might have contacted Whitebeard, but he would become so violent about it and wouldn't believe Luffy's words, so he remained silent and let him handle it himself.
