The whistling sound in the cave even drowned out the thunder in the sky, and a golden light appeared in the bottomless pit.
Kaido, Charlotte Linlin, and the others were attracted by the unusual noise and cast their gazes towards the pit. Meanwhile, the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates surrounding the cave were also startled, their cries of grief and anger pausing as they cast their gazes towards the cave.
A golden light lit up in the dark cave, and as the whistling sound approached, the golden light gradually "bloomed" and filled the entire field of vision.
A powerful air current rushed out of the cave, carrying a billowing hot current, shooting towards the sky. A terrifying domineering aura suddenly pressed down on everyone, and as the golden light approached the cave entrance, the ground began to shake slightly.
"call out--"
A sharp sound of breaking through the air exploded in the pirates' ears, and golden light shot up into the sky and instantly shot into the air.
Kaido and Charlotte Linlin frowned and looked up at the sky quickly, while Vista, Jozu and others did not care about feeling sad for Whitebeard and looked up at the sky in astonishment.
"I was almost killed by you guys—"
The ragged Ji Guoyuanyi was carrying a pair of golden wings and hovering in the air. Golden flames surrounded his body, and those golden flames covered the horrific wounds on Ji Guoyuanyi's body.
Blood continued to flow out from the wound. Even with the Golden Flame's repairing ability, his injuries could not be recovered in a short time. Even the bleeding could not be stopped in a short time. The flowing blood gathered at the soles of his feet and dripped downwards.
Any wound on Yoriichirō's body would be enough to kill an ordinary person, but at this moment, Yoriichirō Tsugikuni's body was filled with domineering aura, and terrifying pressure descended upon every pirate.
Yuichiro Tsugikuni was hanging high above the clouds, his blood-stained long hair dancing in the wind, and the morning light was shining down. The pirates on the coast looked up at the figure bathed in the morning light in the sky, and their hearts trembled.
"An attack like that can't kill him?!"
"and"
The pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates looked at the figure in the air, their bodies suddenly lost their strength, and they dropped their weapons in despair.
At this time, Yoshiichi Tsugikuni was holding a long sword in one hand and a huge bloody man in the other. Although the bloody man's appearance could no longer be seen, the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates still recognized their father and captain at the first time.
Bista and others noticed the bloody man that Jiguo Yuanyi was holding in his left hand. Their hearts twisted and they roared heart-wrenchingly.
“Dad!!!!”
Yoshikazu Tsugakuni lowered his head slightly, lowered his brows, and threw the bloody man in his hand towards Joz, Vista and others.
White beard.
The person who took Hakai by force was not only Yoriichi Tsugakuni, but Whitebeard also took the combined attack of Kaido and BIG MOM head-on.
And unlike Yoshiichi Tsuchikuni who used his ability to defend himself at the first moment, when Whitebeard hugged Yoshiichi Tsuchikuni's body, he had already made up his mind to die. He used his last strength on Yoshiichi Tsuchikuni, forcibly breaking a corner of Yoshiichi Tsuchikuni's defense.
It is precisely because of this that Tsugikuni Yoriichi was so seriously injured.
"Bang——"
Whitebeard's body fell from the sky, and Jozu, Vista and other members of the Whitebeard Pirates immediately caught Whitebeard in a hurry, and then laid Whitebeard flat on the ground.
"Marco!!!"
"Marco!!!"
Vista, who was holding Whitebeard flat on the ground, had his hands covered in Whitebeard's blood. Looking at the wounds on Whitebeard's body that were still bleeding, Vista hurriedly called out Marco's name.
“Dad!!”
The crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates' Group quickly surrounded Whitebeard. Marco also hurried to Whitebeard's side carrying Kozuki Oden. He threw Oden to his companions and rushed to Whitebeard's side. He stretched out his hand to heal Whitebeard's wound when a bloody hand grabbed his wrist.
"Dad?"
The dying bloody man suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, tilted his head slightly, and tightly grasped Marco's hand. Feeling the strong force coming from his arm, Marco's face did not show any joy. Instead, his heart sank and his face was full of sadness.
“Don’t waste time.”
"Now is the best opportunity."
Whitebeard, covered in blood, suddenly supported himself on the ground with one hand, and slowly stood up under the sad gaze of the Whitebeard members.
Gently releasing Marco's wrist, Whitebeard looked around, deeply imprinting the faces of his sons in his mind. Then, with a gentle expression, he looked at Kozuki Oden, who was still in a coma:
"From now on, the Whitebeard Pirates are entrusted to you guys!"
"Marco, you are the new captain of the Whitebeard Pirates!"
"If there are any obstacles you can't overcome, let Oden help you."
"Don't think about revenge for me, just live!"
“Let’s go!!”
Whitebeard's hand suddenly grabbed Markle's body, and then he let out a low growl and threw the grieving Marco directly towards the Moby Dick.
The powerful domineering aura turned into a strong force that swept over the crew members of the Hundred Regiments, pushing them away from him.
Whitebeard quickly glanced at Yoriichi Tsugakuni in the air, but he didn't pay any attention to Yoriichi Tsugakuni. Instead, he jumped up and flew towards the navy.
When Whitebeard's figure flew over the deep ravine, he clenched his fist and raised it high, with a bright smile on his face.
“Gulala--”
"The Navy will never succeed!"
"No matter what you do, the dream of mankind will never die."
"Great secret treasure! It really exists!!!"
Whitebeard's roar spread throughout the entire harbor, and his words were broadcast to the whole world through the live-broadcasting Den Den Mushi placed in various places by the navy.
In the ruins of the square, Sengoku and Garp were rejoicing that Yoriichi Tsugakuni was not dead, but at this moment they heard such a brutal statement from Whitebeard.
one piece!
So many years have passed, and not many people mention pirates anymore.
Moreover, as the navy and the new navy become increasingly powerful, the number of pirates around the world is rapidly decreasing.
But Whitebeard's words will undoubtedly once again ignite the fire in the hearts of pirates all over the world.
In the air, Jigoku Yoshiichi glanced at Whitebeard who was rushing towards the navy, closed his eyes, and sighed in his heart. Whitebeard's condition actually deceived Jigoku Yoshiichi's time. He thought that Whitebeard was already a candle in the wind and no accidents could happen to him again.
But he didn't expect that even he couldn't fully understand the mysteries of the human body.
No one would have thought that Whitebeard, in his last moments, could still...
“Click—”
Whitebeard in mid-air swung a punch at the navy on the opposite side of the deep ravine. There was a slight sound in the air, and a strong shock wave swept towards the navy.
"This guy is already like this!"
"asshole!!!"
Seeing this scene, Zhan Guo's pupils suddenly shrank. He stepped on the moon step and quickly crossed the army formation, arriving in front of all the navy. A little further away, Garp also wanted to take action, but the severe pain only made his injuries worse, and he had no way to help the navy.
Zhan Guo, who transformed into a golden Buddha, quickly stood in front of all the navy. The next second after his figure appeared, Borsalino and Sakaski came to Zhan Guo's side at the same time. The two of them and the Buddha quickly raised their arms to block the incoming shock wave.
In the air, Whitebeard, who had delivered his strongest attack, didn't even look at the effect of his attack. He tilted his head slightly and looked at his sons on the other side with a smile on his face.
Whitebeard's figure slowly descended. Below him was a bottomless ravine. A faint smell of sea emanated from the ravine. Whitebeard sniffed lightly, sniffing the familiar scent of the sea, and pictures of his past life flashed before his eyes.
The excitement of leaving home; the tension of facing a strong opponent; the comfort and lightness of sailing with children. The pictures flashed and all kinds of emotions flooded into Whitebeard's mind.
"It's really brilliant—"
Whitebeard gently closed his eyes, his breath stopped, and his blood-soaked body fell from the air and disappeared into the dark ravine.
“Dad!!!”
The crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates watched Whitebeard's body fall into endless darkness and cried out in grief.
Marco's eyes were filled with tears, but a glint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Retreat, leave here!!"
Marco suppressed the grief in his heart and yelled at the crew members. The pain in his heart was beyond words, but reason told Marco that it was not safe yet.
Whitebeard's death also made the crew members no longer have any worries in their hearts. The pirates who came to their senses rushed to the sea.
“Dong——”
A muffled sound exploded in Marineford, and Whitebeard's dying attack finally fell on the heads of the navy.
The shock wave hit, and the domineering auras of Zhan Guo, Borsalino and Sakaski merged together and collided with the shock wave.
The wind was howling and dust was flying. The already dilapidated Marin Buddha Land was even more precarious at this moment.
After the slight earthquake, the sailors suddenly felt that the whole world had calmed down, and they all looked up at Zhan Guo and others.
"Blocked"
"Blocked it?!"
“Blocked!!!”
Cheers rang out in Marineford, and the roars of the navy reached the sky.
Sengoku, who was standing in front of all the navy, slowly lowered his hands, but he didn't dare to relax at all. He looked intently in the direction of Tsugakuni Yoriichi, Kaido and others. After pondering for a moment, he was about to ask Borsalino and Sakaski to help.
Suddenly, BIG MOM and Kaido turned into two streams of light and shot out in two completely different directions.
Escaped?!
The corner of Zhan Guo's eye twitched slightly. After a quick thought, he gave an order to the navy through the loudspeaker:
"Chase, chase the Whitebeard Pirates."
"Leave all the pirates in Marinford!!!"
Zhan Guo's roar instantly spread throughout the square.
On the coast, the wounds on the blood-soaked Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's body were healing rapidly. The blood that had been dripping had stopped flowing, and a look of fatigue appeared on his face.
"Escaped?"
Yoshikazu Tsugakuni let out a light breath, said in his heart, glanced at the Whitebeard Pirates crew who were quickly fleeing on the coast, and then his gaze turned to the direction where Kaido and Charlotte Linlin had just flown away.
The two men were very fast, one was controlling the flame cloud and the other was relying on the power of the wind.
After a little thought, Yoriichi spread the golden wings behind him, locked directly in the direction of Kaido's departure, shot away, and disappeared above Marinford.
On the distant coastline, Kuzan and the fleet under the Whitebeard Pirates were fighting fiercely. Although he was the strongest fighter in the navy and one of the three admirals of the navy, there were also many powerful pirates in the fleet under Whitebeard.
Although it poses no threat to Kuzan, it is easy to trip him up on the battlefield.
The pirates had no idea what was happening in the naval port. They only knew that no one had ordered them to evacuate.
But soon, the pirates who were besieging Kuzan suddenly discovered that the Moby Dick, which was entering the naval port, broke through the ice and was heading towards here quickly. The pirates who noticed this immediately burst into cheers and their morale soared.
Kuzan, who noticed this scene, frowned and glanced towards Marinford from time to time during the battle.
From a distance, the island of Marinford, which served as a battlefield, had been broken into several pieces, and there were several huge gaps in the high wall at the entrance. The devastated scene made Kuzan feel a little uneasy, but the next second, this thought disappeared from Kuzan's mind.
Meteor Volcano!
Yasakani no Magatama!
Countless dense spots of light and falling lava meteorites instantly filled the entire sky.
"So this is the problem."
Kuzan raised his head and looked at the attack pouring down towards the sea. He murmured something and his body quickly turned into a ball of ice mist and disappeared on the spot, leaving the pirates looking at the doomsday scene in the sky with horror on their faces.
Admiral Akainu and Admiral Kizaru no longer had any scruples and began to frantically hunt down the fleeing pirates. The war entered its final stage, but it also entered its most brutal stage.
The Moby Dick sped across the sea, its attacks on the White Whale always being blocked by the strong men on board. Amidst the rain of attacks, the Moby Dick gradually drifted away.
"call--"
The wind was howling, and a dragon shadow appeared and disappeared quickly in the clouds. Just a dozen seconds later, a golden light followed closely behind, suddenly flying through the air.
Yoriichi Tsugakuni transformed into a golden phoenix, and with his observation Haki, he firmly locked onto Kaido's breath and quickly chased after him.
Kaido and Big Mom who fled in the opposite direction, and the remnants of the White Haired Pirates who stayed in Marineford, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi could only choose one side to hunt down.
Compared to BIG MOM, Kaido, who is younger, more ambitious and has more potential, will be one of the most destabilizing factors in the world. It would be beneficial to get rid of him as soon as possible.
However, Kaido's abilities have greatly improved compared to the first time Yoriichi saw him. After transforming into a dragon, his flying speed is extremely fast. Even Yoriichi Tsugikuni can only close the distance with him little by little and cannot catch up instantly.
Kaido, who has obviously become much stronger, has also deepened Yoshikazu Tsugakuni's determination to hunt him down.
"What?!"
At this moment, under the perception of Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's observation Haki, a strange breath suddenly appeared in the void in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, a void quickly appeared in front of Kaido, and the rapidly fleeing Kaido's dragon head looked back and chuckled:
"Next time, you won't be so lucky."
The dragon's body quickly disappeared into the void, and the black hole also shrank rapidly after taking in Kaido.
Upon seeing this, Ji Guoyuan swung his phoenix wings violently, and a slash shot towards the black hole in the distant void. However, when the slash struck, the black hole had already quickly disappeared into the air.
"What is that?"
"The Five Elders? Or a Devil Fruit ability? Is it the Door-Door Fruit? Or something else?"
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's figure slowly stopped, staring at the place where the black hole disappeared, and his mood couldn't help but become heavy.
He thought he was at the top of the world, but this world was too big, the power of the devil fruit was too magical, and there were too many unknown things.
The golden phoenix disappeared in the air, and the figure of Tsugikuni Yoshiichi appeared, hovering at the place where the black hole disappeared, carefully feeling the power.
For a moment, Tsugikoku Yoriichi fell silent. After such an incident, Yoriichi was certain of one thing:
"Kaidou and Big Mom have helpers."
