Chapter 579: Entrance
Chapter 579: Entrance
On the battlefield at this moment, both sides, pirates and the Navy, were all bloodthirsty.
Every moment, someone fell, either hit by bullets, slashed by blades, or affected by the attacks of other strong individuals.
The scene was too brutal. Although the reefs of the Edd War are large, with hundreds of thousands gathered here to fight, including powerful individuals capable of destroying islands, one can imagine the situation.
The journalists embedded with the troops responsible for reporting this war dared only to use their image-transmitting Den Den Mushi from a distance, fearing being caught in the crossfire.
Kuina, gripping her blade, looked around at the fighting crowd, panting heavily. Her face was covered in grime and bloodstains. Several pirates lay at her feet, those who had tried to attack her earlier, only to be cut down by her.
Koby and Helmeppo were behind Kuina at this moment. The three of them fought back to back, but in reality, most of the time, Kuina was the one protecting them.
Screams filled the air, and fresh blood sprayed everywhere. Although Koby and Helmeppo could still fight, whenever they saw the gruesome scenes around them, they couldn’t help but feel nauseous, their legs constantly trembling.
There were many new recruits in the Navy who hadn’t experienced the brutality of true battles, but the Navy’s frontline soldiers were indeed not as skilled as the pirates. However, the several super strong individuals on the Navy’s side significantly balanced out this disadvantage.
Apart from Enel engaging with Kizaru and Fujitora engaging with Aokiji, on Akainu’s side, Marco alone was not enough to handle the pressure. Consequently, Diamond Jozu and Vista had to team up with Marco to confront Akainu together.
Moria had already been knocked down by Jinbe’s powerful punch. In such a battlefield, Moria was at a disadvantage. His strength came entirely from his Devil Fruit ability, which was only fully realized when he had enough shadows to manipulate.Jinbe’s forceful punch made Moria suffer a serious injury, temporarily incapacitating him, and then he engaged with Vice Admiral Garp.
“Jinbe!” Garp shouted as he threw punches. “Have you also turned against the Navy?”
“Ever since I was thrown into the Impel Down,” Jinbe retracted his fist to his waist and then struck out forcefully!
Boom! Garp’s black iron fist clashed solidly with Jinbe’s “Five Thousand Tile True Punch,” and a powerful shockwave erupted, sending nearby pirates and Marines flying backward…
…
On the other side, Reiju, Robin, Nami, and Nana were also facing Vice Admiral Tsuru. Reiju was responsible for agile maneuvers, Nana attacked head-on with her sword, Nami searched for opportunities to attack from behind with her Clima-Tact, and Robin used her Devil Fruit abilities to assist. If they had a healer, their team would be a standard adventurers lineup facing a boss.
However, despite her old age, Vice Admiral Tsuru was indeed a boss-level character. Near their location, there were several pirates who had been turned into flat clothes by Vice Admiral Tsuru’s Wash-Wash Fruit ability, lying helplessly on the ground. They were in pain as people around them trampled over them.
Aware of this, Nana and the others dared not get too close to Vice Admiral Tsuru and attacked cautiously.
“These four little girls are quite clever…” Vice Admiral Tsuru commented.
…
There were pirates turned into clothes, and likewise, there were pirates turned into stone statues. Although Boa Hancock didn’t want to fight the Whitebeard Pirates, her status as a Warlord of the Sea led many pirates to misunderstand her position. So they all shouted and rushed towards Boa Hancock. Faced with such people, Boa Hancock couldn’t just stand idly by. Each pirate trying to attack her turned into a stone statue under her kicks. However, she didn’t distinguish between friend and foe when she acted, and some nearby Marines were also kicked by her…
…
Zoro was still battling with Hawkeye, but Hawkeye was starting to get impatient. While parrying Zoro’s slashes with his black blade Yoru, Hawkeye spoke, “Is this your level? You disappoint me!”
Zoro’s expression was filled with anger at this moment, but this anger wasn’t directed towards Hawkeye; it was frustration at his own powerlessness. Even if he roared and exerted all his strength to strike at Hawkeye, it could easily be deflected by the latter. This made him feel like a skinny child recklessly challenging a strong man. Such a blow was too much for him to bear…
…
Buggy and his pirate crew had no intention of fighting in this chaotic battlefieldonHe originally intended to sneak away with Alvida and the others. However, a Pacifista who had been knocked unconscious by Luffy and Franky’s combined attack happened to fall in front of them. Upon regaining consciousness, this pacifista spotted Buggy.
“Clown Buggy, one of the masterminds behind the Impel Down jailbreak! Attack!”
With those words, a laser shot out from the pacifista, causing an explosion of flames. Buggy’s pirate crew was thrown into chaos, screaming and fleeing in all directions…
…
After dodging a meteorite from Fujitora, Doflamingo, though refraining from any further confrontation with Sugar, spotted his target after jumping away.
With a leap, he had already arrived in front of Law.
“Fufufu!” Doflamingo smirked, “Look who it is! Law, I thought you’d be hiding like a turtle forever. Didn’t expect to see you on this battlefield! Found yourself a new ally?”
Law shielded Walnut behind him, drew his nodachi “Kikoku,” and said with a grim expression, “Doflamingo, I’m here to send you to hell!”
“Where did you get this confidence from!?” Doflamingo laughed even louder at Law’s words.
However, before he could finish laughing, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side, slamming into Doflamingo’s shoulder. Caught off guard, Doflamingo staggered from the tremendous force. Before he could stabilize himself, hands grabbed his ankles and swiftly twisted him upside down.
“You bastard, who are you!?” Doflamingo stared at the man before him, realizing he wasn’t from the Heart Pirates.
The one attacking Doflamingo was Yardi. He and Law had been protecting Walnut on the battlefield, usually without much presence. But facing Doflamingo, Yardi suddenly erupted!
At this moment, the muscles on his arms bulged high, but strangely, these arms had segmented parts, and antennae appeared on Yardi’s head, with mandibles at the corners of his mouth!
Zoan-type Insect Devil Fruit, Ant Form!
Yes, Yardi had also become a Devil Fruit user, and his Devil Fruit was brought to him by someone from the Revolutionary Army headquarters some time ago! It was said to be personally ordered by Dragon…
After grabbing Doflamingo, Yardi let out a roar, holding Doflamingo and starting to spin in place, lifting him up, then suddenly threw Doflamingo in one direction!
Doflamingo was still trying to find a way to stop himself when a huge stone club swung over and hit him hard!
Thud! Doflamingo was sent flying out like a baseball hit!
The one who made the move was Urouge…
The three of them joined forces, and even Doflamingo was almost coughing up blood!
“You… you!” Doflamingo’s body stopped in mid-air, the triumphant laughter on his face finally disappearing, replaced by gritted teeth…
He swung his right hand behind him, and countless threads instantly appeared, entwining together in Doflamingo’s palm.
Just as Doflamingo was about to unleash his Hyper Kick Whip toward Law and the others below, suddenly, Doflamingo’s ears twitched as if he heard something strange.
Not just him, but also Sengoku, Garp, Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru, Jinbe, Crocodile, Iva, Marco, Vista, and the others, all heard this strange sound.
The sound was somewhat muffled, like the slow cracking of ice.
“No… not good!!!”
Sengoku was the first to react, immediately crossing his arms in front of him and shouting, “All forces!! Brace for impact!”
Just as he finished speaking, there was a soft popping sound again, followed by a powerful and violent shockwave!
With a thunderous roar, the entire battlefield seemed to be swept up by a Category 12 hurricane. Countless pirates and marines engaged in combat were blown away, one by one, tumbling in the air.
The marines yelled in confusion, not understanding what was happening, but the pirates, after a moment of confusion, suddenly realized what was going on. Though blown away, they erupted into excited cheers.
Sengoku and his men firmly planted their feet on the ground to stabilize themselves, their hands placed in front of their heads to resist the storm.
Doflamingo, who was already suspended in mid-air, was the unluckiest of them all. He not only felt the sweeping shockwave but also experienced an immense force directly hitting his abdomen.
“Ahh!” Doflamingo immediately spewed out a mouthful of blood as he was blown away.
After the storm subsided, Sengoku and his men raised their heads and looked towards the direction of the storm. Not that far ahead, they saw a tall figure crouching there, still in a punching stance.
“Whitebeard!!!”
Sengoku crushed a piece of hard ice that had just flown towards him in the storm and gritted his teeth, saying, “The most important figure, has he finally appeared!?”
Upon seeing this towering figure, the pirates erupted into thunderous cheers!
“Oyaji! Father is here!”
“That’s great!”
On the Navy’s side, and among those who witnessed the scene through the live broadcast, they were all stunned, staring at the towering figure, trembling uncontrollably.
“Whitebeard, that monster, has appeared!”
“What’s going on? Wasn’t he severely injured? Why is he still showing up!?”
In full view of everyone, Whitebeard slowly retracted his arm and whispered, “Ian, is this okay?”
“Nice!” Ian, who appeared much shorter standing beside Whitebeard, gave a thumbs up and said, “But it would be even better if you could punch Doflamingo to death!”
Ace, standing on the other side, chuckled, adjusting his cowboy hat on his head, “It’s too far away, not that easy, is it?”
“Hmph, you filthy brat!” Whitebeard snorted, “You’re the first to dare to order me to fight for you!”
Ian grinned and remained silent.
Whitebeard stood up straight, grinned broadly, and sneered at Sengoku, who, despite transforming into a giant Buddha in the distance, still appeared towering, “Don’t worry, I’m just saying hello lightly!”
“…,” Sengoku was speechless.
Following Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji, the fourth person to be greeted also appeared…
