On that sunny beach, Lu Renjia leisurely held a coconut juice in his hand.
With his eyes glued to the live stream, he muttered to himself, "Will it be Little Ma going first again? I wonder how he'll perform against Green Bull this time."
After all, during the Marineford War in the original manga, Kizaru, Aokiji, and Sengoku were holding back and not going all out in the battle.
Among the Navy, only Akainu was wholeheartedly devoted to the battle, showing no mercy.
Now, Green Bull is a big fan of Akainu, and his style of doing things is exactly the same as Akainu's.
They will be incredibly ruthless towards pirates, and will definitely not show the same mercy to Marco as the previous ones.
The live stream switched to Marineford, where several towering trees, resembling colossal pillars, suddenly appeared out of nowhere, plunging down with tremendous force.
In an instant, it completely enveloped the inner bay.
Under the shadow of that huge and sinister blackness, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates all felt as if an invisible pressure was pressing down on them, making it hard to breathe.
At that moment, Marco burst forth like a dazzling meteor streaking across the dark night sky.
He transformed into a phoenix, surrounded by dazzling blue flames.
Although the azure flames did not possess direct offensive power, the light and aura they emitted were enough to awe people.
"How could we allow you to disturb us so easily, Your Majesty!"
Marco uttered familiar lines, but this time he faced a completely unfamiliar opponent and unfamiliar attack methods.
"Hmph, you pirates, just prepare to die!" Green
The bull, suspended in mid-air, suddenly grabbed at the tree, and as if brought to life, it hurtled straight down on Marco with even greater speed.
The tree made a sharp whooshing sound as it flew at high speed. Compared to it, Marco seemed like an insignificant little butterfly, appearing so small and fragile.
"A mere trick! Phoenix Seal!" Marco showed no fear, but instead rose to the challenge.
In his phoenix form, he extended a massive claw covered in azure flames and, with a devastating force, slammed it toward the trunk of the great tree.
Although the Azure Flame itself has no direct offensive power, Marco's mastery of Haki is quite high.
Under Marco's powerful blow, the massive tree trunk was snapped in half, and the two halves fell helplessly to either side of the Moby Dick.
The water splashed up much higher than the sails of the Moby Dick, which shows just how incredibly heavy the tree trunk was.
"Hmph, it's just a futile struggle. I'll start with you!" Green Bull used Moonwalk to stay steadily in the air, and then waved his hand.
In an instant, the numerous trees that blocked out the sky seemed to be driven by some mysterious force.
They fell like raindrops, their target being Marco and the Moby Dick, as if to bury them completely in this endless sea of wood.
Marco narrowed his eyes slightly. At this moment, the blue flames on his body became more and more active, as if they could sense the determination in their master's heart.
"If you've got the guts, then come at me! Phoenix Kick!"
Faced with the towering tree trunk that loomed overhead like dark clouds, Marco instantly transformed into the form of a phoenix.
The next moment, its wings vibrated violently, and its entire body spun rapidly, soaring into the sky like a whirlwind.
"Boom!!!"
A deafening roar followed as the seemingly indestructible tree trunk succumbed to Marco's fierce attack.
They crumbled like fragile tofu, turning into countless broken branches and wood fragments that thudded into the inner bay.
"What!" Green Bull was shocked to see this; Marco's strength far exceeded his expectations.
Indeed, if the Whitebeard Pirates were only supported by Whitebeard alone, it would be impossible for them to compare with the forces of the other three Yonko.
Even with his extraordinary strength, Whitebeard could not single-handedly contend with the entire crew of one of the Four Emperors' pirate crews.
Marco's strength has at least reached the level of a vice admiral, while Diamond Jozu of the Third Division and Vista of the Fifth Division are at least vice admiral candidates.
Green Bull was clearly careless and underestimated their opponent.
After breaking through the tree trunk, Marco flew straight to the top of his head.
It's important to understand that moonwalking is ultimately just a technique that allows one to hover briefly in the air; it doesn't truly allow one to soar freely through the sky.
Marco, however, is truly able to fly freely in the sky thanks to the Phoenix's abilities.
"It is impolite not to reciprocate. Get out of here!"
Marco performed a nimble somersault in mid-air, then delivered a powerful kick that slashed at Green Bull like a sharp blade.
Green Bull hurriedly raised his arm to block, but the power he borrowed from Moonwalk was ultimately limited.
He was simply unable to withstand the full force of an attack from a powerhouse of Marco's caliber.
His body instantly lost its balance, and he fell straight into the inner bay filled with driftwood like a falling meteor.
"Oh no! It's on the sea!"
Everyone knows that Devil Fruit users lose their ability to move once they fall into the sea.
Unable to swim in the sea, they will only sink to the bottom.
Marco knew this, which is why he unexpectedly kicked the Green Bull into the sea.
At this moment, Green Bull was falling at an extremely fast speed, and Moonwalk was no longer of much use in such an emergency.
The green bull was extremely anxious and tried to land on a piece of driftwood to save itself.
But how could the Whitebeard Pirates give him that chance?
Captain Izou of the 16th Division quickly drew his twin pistols, smashing driftwood on the sea surface while firing repeatedly at Green Bull to disrupt his actions.
Green Bull inwardly groaned, having thought that this battle would easily earn him some fame and allow him to gain a foothold in the Navy.
Little did he expect that he would underestimate Marco's strength so much, and now he was in such a sorry state.
This will likely make us a laughingstock, a truly shameful situation.
As he got closer and closer to the sea, he felt utterly hopeless.
Just as he was about to fall into the water, a mysterious purple light suddenly appeared on Green Bull's body.
It turned out that, below the execution platform, Fujitora slowly drew his cane-sword again, unleashing the powerful abilities of his Devil Fruit to save Green Bull in time.
Marco's eyes narrowed instantly in mid-air. His wings vibrated violently again, and he charged swiftly towards the green bull hovering on the sea without hesitation.
This is a good opportunity to reduce naval strength.
However, at that moment, the sky above the Moby Dick was once again shrouded in a dark shadow, and the entire sky seemed to be instantly engulfed in flames.
Everyone instinctively looked up, and what they saw made their eyes widen in horror, their faces filled with fear and disbelief.
"A meteorite... a meteorite! How is this possible?!"
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates all cried out in astonishment.
Whitebeard himself narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering to himself.
The strength of these four newly added admirals seemed to exceed his expectations.
Although there is still a slight gap compared to Kizaru and Aokiji.
But the gap wasn't large; they were no match for his sons.
After safely returning Green Bull to the ground, Fujitora slowly sheathed his staff sword, his expression calm, and said indifferently.
"I'm sorry, but he is, after all, my colleague. I can't just stand by and watch him fall into the sea."
"Consider this meteorite a small gift from this old man to Lord Whitebeard!"
