Chapter 148: Chapter 149: The Battle That Came To An Abrupt End! Trade With Whitebeard!
In comparison, the other ship is much quieter.
Ships blessed with sacred words can still be safe and sound even in a huge ocean storm, let alone the tsunami that has not yet formed.
However, this terrible scene still made the new cute Shirahoshi show a nervous expression.
She grew up on Fishman Island since she was a child, and later lived in a hard-shell tower for a period of time because of Vander Decken IX. Now she has just been liberated. Where has she seen such a terrible battle?
Even the shark next to the boat that came out from Fishman Island showed a panicked expression at this time.
Not to mention the turbulent waves around, the oppressive feeling caused by the terrible collision alone made this marine creature unbearable.
If it weren't for the existence of Shirahoshi, I'm afraid it would have fled this place long ago.
"Hephaestus-sama, can Yami Big Brother win?"
"Of course, he will." Hephaestus turned around with a smile on her face, her eyes full of firmness and trust, "don't underestimate your Yami big brother, he is very powerful, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is the most powerful adventurer of the familia, so have some confidence in him~"
"I understand, Hephaestus-sama, I will cheer for Yami Big Brother!!!"
Boom!!!
While speaking, the terrible explosion sounded again, attracting everyone's attention.
The guys of the Whitebeard Pirates all looked nervously at the situation on the deserted island, and the terrible storm circling in the sky that day was like a sharp blade in everyone's heart
If they were full of confidence before, then now, everyone is worried.
The powerful Yami has been regarded by them as an existence at the same level as the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if everyone doesn't want to believe it, it is indeed a fact.
"Father, you must win!"
Marco, who is still a little immature now, with a pineapple hair on his head, prayed with a slight worry on his face.
As the ship doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, since Roger was executed, he has regularly checked his father's body, and basically knows Whitebeard's physical condition the best.
Regardless of the fact that Whitebeard's body is strong now, he doesn't seem to be in any serious trouble.
However, Marco knew very well that Whitebeard's body was not as optimistic as he imagined. Whether it was the dark wounds left by him when he was young, or the damage to his body caused by using his devil fruit, they all accumulated in his body, affecting him all the time.
If it's just a general injury, it can't affect the days when the physique is strong.
However, when the quantity reaches a terrifying level, the quantitative change leads to a qualitative change, and even Whitebeard probably cannot completely suppress it, and it is only natural that his strength will regress greatly in the following time.
Therefore, as the ship doctor of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marco didn't want to see his father fight too much, but as a son, he didn't want to speak out to stop him.
Marco understands Whitebeard's character. The latter is only allowed to die in battle, and absolutely cannot accept dying of illness in bed.
In this contradictory thought, the battle on the isolated island has gradually improved.
With a single sword, Yami was forced back, and Whitebeard became extremely shocked in his heart. In the continuous collision, he failed to take advantage of the other party at all. On the contrary, it was the superb swordsmanship and sharp attack of the guy in front of him that brought him. It was unbelievable how much trouble it took.
He really saw the shadow of Roger in Yami.
"No, this kid is even scarier than Roger! He has a strong physique, superb swordsmanship, and terrifying haki control, but he is so young, it's unbelievable!"
It wasn't until this moment that he recognized Yami's strength.
As a result, his body was covered with a powerful armament haki, and the blade of his nagita was wrapped with shock force, and his eyes were full of madness!
Naturally, Yami was not to be outdone, and the black sword in his hand exerted all his strength.
The sharp slash whizzed past, and collided with the power of the shock fruit. The two completely different forces couldn't do anything to each other, so they became deadlocked in mid-air, and the terrible impact formed gusts of wind again, wreaking havoc on all objects around.
A weak guy doesn't even have the qualifications to stand in the impact range and watch the battle.
"HAAAAA!!!"
Yami, who had probably figured out the attack method of Whitebeard, froze for a moment, swung the blade in his hand again, and the white slash spread out from the tip of the blade colliding with the previous sword Aura!
The power of the shock was instantly disintegrated, and the slashing speed continued to attack Whitebeard.
"Scary brat, I approve of you, but it's too early to make me admit defeat!"
The weapon in his hand waved again, struggling to smash the oncoming slash, and then stepped forward with his left foot, his two thick arms angrily exerted force, and even the protruding blood vessels on them could be seen, the terrifying force also began to wind around the blade with conqueror haki infuse on it!
"Kid, don't die on me!"
"Old man, you should take care of yourself first!"
Faced with Whitebeard's all-out efforts, Yami naturally did not want to be outdone, the black sword in his hand was also entwined with conqueror haki, and even his eyes were shining scarlet at this moment.
"Conqueror Infusion· Ikkitousen!"[Tl/n: means One Man Army.]
"Conqueror Infusion· Conqueror Slash!!"
Two figures, one big and one small, stepped forward suddenly, white and black directly together.
No, to be precise, the black sword did not collide with Whitebeard Gathering Cloud-Cutter(Weapon name) in a substantial way, just like two magnets with the same polarity, when they suddenly approached, there was a sudden strong repulsion, forming a terrible black energy ball that is continuously squeezed outward.
With the energy ball with a very unstable shape was about to explode, neither Yami nor Whitebeard noticed it, and they were still exerting pressure.
Space began to distort, and the island began to be overwhelmed.
Bang!
Accompanied by a loud sound, the entire island suddenly split from the middle, and the huge energy suddenly lost control and sprayed towards all directions.
In an instant, the terrible shock caused a huge tsunami, centered on the isolated island, and engulfed the surroundings.
"Not good, all newcomers hold on to the hull, don't be thrown out, and the others are ready to defend."
Looking at the overwhelming waves, Marco didn't dare to be careless. Now that Whitebeard is not here, he, as the second in command, must assume the responsibility of protecting everyone.
His hands trembled, and his arms instantly turned into blue flame wings.
Just when he was about to fly into the air and use his attack to deal with the huge waves in front of him, Shirahoshi on the other side was already standing at the bow, her exquisite little face could be said to be indescribably nervous.
However, under the encouragement of Hephaestus and Kuina, the girl regained her courage.
"Let the ocean take them away!!!"
A short chant sounded, although it was her first time to use this magic, but as early as when she joined the Hephaestus Familia and was endowed with the favor of God, there were two more things about the magic in Shirahoshi's mind, It can be said to be handy in display.
Under her control, the water molecules in the air condensed instantly, and even the sea water began to boil.
The oncoming tsunami was suddenly under control, and the situation that was originally rushing towards everyone came to an abrupt end, and then changed its direction very strangely, falling back towards the direction where no one was.
Huge waves carry terrifying energy, this kind of impact is no weaker than the attack of a Devil Fruit, and even most weak guys will be destroyed by this overwhelming tsunami.
In fact, the vast majority of pirates did not die in battle, or were hunted by the navy.
Shipwreck is an important means to reduce the number of pirates.
"Was that... that mermaid did it just now?"
Witnessing the eruption and disappearance of the tsunami with his own eyes, Marco's movements froze immediately, and he looked solemnly at the bow of the ship not far away, without any thought in his expression.
However, his heart at this time can be described as quite restless.
There are very few members, but all of them have special skills, and they can even do things like control the sea water, and from a certain situation, this method is much better than the fishmen on their ship.
If a battle with such an existence really breaks out, to be honest, Marco is not confident that he can win.
Just the appearance of manipulating the tsunami without blushing or panting is the nemesis of most devil fruit users.
"I just hope Dad can win…"
In desperation, Marco was able to look forward to it in his heart.
"Look, the battle seems to be over."
I don't know who howled such a voice, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and Marco stopped thinking about it, and quickly looked in the direction of the isolated island.
After the terrible explosion before, the sound caused by the battle suddenly stopped.
The smoke dissipated slowly, and the current situation of the isolated island was gradually revealed. The island had been split into several pieces, and two figures were seen standing on the two islands respectively, one of which was tall and straight, and the other was leaning on his huge weapon, squatting on the ground.
Yami won!
"Father lost!?" Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates was shocked, and many of them suddenly fell to the ground, showing a look of collapsed, "How could Father lose? How could the strongest man, and also one of the Four Emperors, lose to such a brat!"
Not just ordinary members, even the cadres don't know what to say at this time.
To be honest, they never thought that their father would lose the battle, and he lost so simply. This is simply unbelievable and unacceptable.
"Cough cough cough!!!"
On the isolated island, Whitebeard squatted halfway on the ground, covering his chest with his left hand and coughing non-stop. It was very obvious that blood was slowly flowing out of his mouth, and he looked extremely in pain.
Looking at this scene, Yami suddenly sighed helplessly...
"Really, I originally wanted to have a good fight with you, but your old injury broke out. This feeling is really uncomfortable!"
That's right, the reason why Whitebeard lost so quickly was because of the recurrence of old injuries.
The powerful collision and the pressure from Yami made Whitebeard use all his strength, which resulted in such consequences that the battle ended in such an anticlimactic manner.
"Cough, cough, kid, don't underestimate me. I am Whitebeard. It's just some old injuries. It's no big deal. We'll fight again."
Saying so, Whitebeard struggled to get up.
However, Yami rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to it.
"Forget it, I don't want to bully an old, weak, sick, and the disabled old man. Although it's a little bit disappointing, let's end this battle."
"And you should also know that you are not my opponent at all, but unfortunately, you are no longer young and your strength is not at the peak, otherwise I really want to fight with you till the end. "
"Bastard kid...cough cough cough..."
Hearing Yami's words, Whitebeard seemed to want to refute, but his body didn't allow it at all. Instead, he coughed twice and spewed scarlet blood again.
Such a distressed appearance does not look like the so-called strongest man in the world.
"Tsk, you aged. The strongest man in the world actually fell due to his sickness…"
"Do you still want me to take you back?"
Yami pouted helplessly, but still stretched out his hand to lift Whitebeard's arm. This very proud man obviously wanted to resist, but now he doesn't have the qualifications.
Using the moon steps, he returned directly to Moby Dick with Whitebeard.
The rest of the Whitebeard Pirates immediately surrounded them.
"Father, are you all right?"
Marco, who is a ship's doctor, hurried forward, supported Whitebeard's huge body, and then began to check his father's body together with other ship's doctors.
They don't know if they don't look at it, but were shocked when they saw it.
"It's not a new injury, but an outbreak of an old injury. It's so serious that it must be treated in time. Hurry up and prepare equipment and medicines, and don't delay any longer!"
"Yes, Captain Marco."
All the ship doctors hurriedly nodded in agreement, and hurriedly ran into the cabin.
"Don't be so troublesome. I have medicine here that can heal Whitebeard's injury. Even his old injuries can be completely cured without any sequelae."
Yami's words immediately surprised Marco, but soon, the pineapple-headed man calmed down again, looked at the other party, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you want?"
"It's easy to communicate with smart people. I can give you the healing medicine, but there is one condition. To be precise, there is one thing I want you, Whitebeard Pirates to do."
"Tell me first? If it's not too much, I can agree to it!"
"It's not hard actually. So don't be nervous. In the next period of time, this sea may fall into chaotic order. I need you Whitebeard Pirates to act as a 'navy' for a while. I want you to kill those pirates who act recklessly, burn, kill and loot, it's that simple. "
Yami bluntly stated his purpose.
Such a nonsensical request immediately made Marco stunned.
"Are you kidding me? We are pirates. Pirates are free. It is absolutely impossible for us to do the same thing as the navy!"
The other members around also choose to refuse.
They are all pirates, and of course they are not willing to protect other civilians like the navy. If it is an area protected by the Whitebeard Pirates, then naturally it goes without saying. But others? Hmp!
"Ahem, boy, what is your purpose?"
After a short rest, Whitebeard also recovered some strength, and asked with sharp eyes.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. I plan to overthrow the world government. If the sea lose the suppression of this behemoth, the whole sea will be in chaos by then, so in order to prevent too many ordinary people from being affected by this incident, I came to make a deal with you. "
"I don't need you to take the initiative to find and kill the pirates. I just need to deal with all the pirates that you encounter who attack ordinary people in your daily actions. In exchange, I will give you the potion to heal your wounds, isn't it fair?"
The understatement made everyone's eyes widen, even Whitebeard included.
"Gu la la la, brat, do you know how powerful the world government is? With your own strength, you can't make any splash on them at all, even Roger back then, became the Pirate King and only dared to use his own life to set off the Great Pirate Era, but you have a whimsical plan to overthrow the world government? So ridiculous!"
"Cough cough cough..."
The laughing voice didn't last long, and Whitebeard coughed again.
But this time even though he coughed up blood, he still had a mocking smile on his face, looking into Yami's line of sight, as if looking at a clown.
This kid is indeed powerful, but there is a problem with his brain.
