The Comer Was Solo

Chapter 225: The Comer Was Solo?

"Pops."

Upon seeing Akainu flying upside down instead of Whitebeard, Marco felt a sense of relief in his heart. Fortunately, at the last critical moment, Whitebeard's body recovered.

This scene undoubtedly ignited the morale of every pirate present. It reignited their spirits. For a moment, the tide of the battle shifted again.

On the contrary, the Marines looked at Whitebeard in horror. The name of the strongest man in the world. Well deserved!

"As expected of the most powerful man in the sea, he's truly terrifying." Kizaru guarding under the execution platform became agitated once again.

"I didn't expect that even the monster Akainu couldn't match Whitebeard."

"So frightening, so frightening."

As for Sengoku and Garp, they were the true powerhouses capable of fighting against Whitebeard. But both of them needed to consider the bigger picture and adjust tactics at any moment.

Once engaged in a battle with Whitebeard, they would inevitably lose control of the situation. It would be easy to lose more than they could gain.

As for Garp, although he was a marine hero and everyone's spiritual pillar, he was also Ace's grandfather. He sat there quietly, not betraying his duty. Sengoku was already content with that.

Let him deal with Whitebeard. Cut off Ace's only lifeline. Even the Warlord of the Navy felt that was beyond reach. And with Akainu's defeat...Kizaru stood by and watched.

In the inner square of Marineford, there were still those who were qualified to fight against Whitebeard. Only Admiral Aokiji remained. At this moment, Aokiji was blocked by Marco.

Initially, Aokiji intended to prevent Marco from aiding Whitebeard. Unexpectedly, after Akainu's defeat, Marco's restless heart completely settled down. Now he could fight Aokiji with peace of mind.

Back and forth, the clash between ice and fire intensified. Although Aokiji had superior physical skills, Marco relied on his super-speed regeneration and immortality.

They were evenly matched. It was difficult to determine a winner. On the other side, after defeating Akainu, Whitebeard raised his proud head once again. He tightly grasped Murakumogiri with both hands and pointed the blade at Sengoku provocatively.

To this old friend, this old rival.

As if saying...On this battlefield, no one can stop me anymore!

Upon seeing this, Sengoku's face turned ashen. He clenched his teeth, clenched his hands into fists, and restrained himself with the last bit of reason. No matter what, he had to protect this execution platform and stay by Ace's side.

Observing Sengoku's silence, a smile formed at the corners of Whitebeard's mouth. He tightly gripped Murakumogiri with both hands, then swung it across the execution platform. In an instant, cracks of various sizes appeared out of thin air where Murakumogiri struck.

The diameter of these cracks instantly exceeded two meters. With a mid-air slash, Whitebeard utilized the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to the extreme, combined with his previous clash against Akainu...

The Marines on the battlefield involuntarily retreated. They tried to avoid the path of the shockwave, so as not to be caught up in it!

In an instant, avisible shockwave swept out, rushing toward the execution platform.

At this moment, Sengoku's face turned green.

"Someone, stop this guy..."

"Anyone will do."

However, Akainu was defeated, Aokiji was occupied, and Kizaru remained indifferent. Garp chose to remain on the sidelines.

The remaining Vice Admirals, even if they had the will, lacked the ability. Four or five Vice Admirals utilized the Six Powers' Soru technique, appearing in front of the shockwave.

They attempted to counterbalance the air shock caused by Whitebeard. However, they greatly underestimated Whitebeard's power.

The moment the two forces collided, the armor of these vice admirals shattered. Their swords were broken one after another. The terrifying air shock overwhelmed them.

Two or three breaths, and they fell unconscious. They didn't even have a chance to grunt. They were sent flying one after another.

No one could stop Whitebeard!

"Noo..."

Seeing this, Sengoku felt a lump in his throat, sensing a foreboding. Once this shockwave struck the execution platform. It would undoubtedly obliterate it directly causing Ace to fall.

At that moment, the Whitebeard Pirates would have a significant opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and rescue Ace. And as the sole heir of Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, no matter what, they couldn't let him escape.

"It seems I have to handle this myself."

Sengoku's eyes narrowed, his expression turned serious, and his breathing stabilized. Although he was known as a brilliant strategist, he was not without combat power.

On the contrary, before assuming the position of Fleet Admiral, he was an Admiral. When he was younger, he had clashed with Whitebeard and Roger several times.

He defeated the Golden Lion Shiki alongside Garp. Even with Whitebeard present, breaking through his defense was simply out of the question.

"How could I let you succeed, Whitebeard!"

Sengoku let out a roar, and golden light radiated from his body. Simultaneously, Garp, who had been crossing his arms and wearing a gloomy expression, could no longer remain seated.

As Ace's grandfather, he naturally hoped his grandson could escape unharmed. He didn't want him to lose his life in this place.

So when Whitebeard made his move, he genuinely hoped that this man hailed as the strongest in the world, would succeed to save Ace and then vanish from his sight.

But...

"Old man, you're not only Ace's grandfather but also a member of the Marines!"

Garp suddenly stood up from his seat.

"I am a Marine!"

As long as he was alive, no one could break through his line of defense not even Whitebeard!

"Come on, Whitebear, let me see how powerful you truly are!"

Garp held his breath, and his right hand was instantly coated in the black color Armament Haki. He planted one foot firmly on the ground, ready to face Whitebeard's shockwave.

However, just as Sengoku and Garp, the two most powerful individuals in the headquarters, were prepared to act, a dark figure leaped up from the square of Marineford.

It instantly caught their attention. This sudden turn of events naturally caught Sengoku and Garp off guard.

After witnessing the terrifying power of Whitebeard, even as members of the Navy, they hesitated to take the initiative and face his shockwave.

Who was it? Aokiji? Or Kizaru?!

Sengoku and Garp swallowed simultaneously, focusing their gaze ahead until they finally saw the newcomer clearly.

The marine officer that came into view wasn't wearing a Justice coat at all. Just an ordinary marine uniform. Although the figure appeared strong, they were shorter than both Sengoku and Garp.

"Yes, is it... Solo?"

Suddenly, Garp recognized the identity of the newcomer and couldn't help but feel incredulous.
