Chapter 164 - Chapter 164: Whitebeard Hammers Akainu, Everyone Evacuates!

🤗 Please if you find any incorrect names let me know in comments so I can fix them 

Jaygarcia Saturn: "Impossible...!!!"

Suddenly seeing himself killed by Red-Luffy, Jaygarcia Saturn was unwilling to believe such a thing~~~

And this death... was extremely miserable, just like a pile of mud dumped on the ground...

As one of the highest authority representatives of the World Government, Jaygarcia Saturn could not accept this in any way!!!

Kid: "A Zoan Devil Fruit user, in his transformed state, was actually flattened with a single palm????"

As a Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon form user, Kid couldn't help but shudder at seeing this scene~~~

If one could flatten Jaygarcia Saturn with a single palm, who would dare guarantee that they couldn't flatten Kid with a single palm???

And the key point was... that Red-Luffy over there had only cultivated to such a degree by relying on a single Rubber-Rubber Fruit~~~

Then, theoretically, as long as White-Luffy worked hard enough, he could also reach this height?!

At that time, wouldn't White-Luffy also have the strength to flatten Kid with a single palm???

Gol D. Roger: "Truly too strong!!! Red-Luffy is awesome!!!"

Kozuki Oden: "Red-Luffy is awesome!"

Monkey D. Garp: "Hahaha...!!! That world over there is also too interesting, isn't it?! But... this world will also become more interesting~~~"

Crocodile: "When the observation system ends, the battle at the top over here will truly be spectacular!"

Buggy: "I suddenly thought of a problem! Since the Five Elders have issued a death order for the Straw Hat kid, after the battle at the top begins, will the Five Elders come over and kill the Straw Hat kid?"

Edward Newgate: "If nothing unexpected happens, it's a definite possibility!!"

Whitebeard now knew a few things, so he affirmed that the Five Elders over here would not allow Luffy to grow to that extent~~~

Gol D. Roger: "Luffy! When the observation system ends, don't get involved in the excitement, quickly leave Marine Headquarters. As for Ace and Whitebeard, someone will definitely save them!"

Monkey D. Luffy: "I will definitely save Ace!!"

Portgas D. Ace: "Stupid Luffy!!! Did you not hear what Red-Luffy just said?? I'm not the protagonist anymore, you are!! The Five Elders may not care about my life, but they absolutely insist on your death!! If you stay in Marine Headquarters, it will only make this war more chaotic!!"

Roronoa Zoro: "Luffy, your brother is right!! You must not participate, but rather, restrain yourself more!!"

Nami: "That's right! Luffy!!!"

Monkey D. Luffy: "I want to..."

[When Jaygarcia Saturn was smashed into meat paste by Luffy's palms, everyone at Marine Headquarters was shocked speechless.]

[All gazes stared in disbelief at the unidentified mush falling from the sky...]

"That is... Saturn, the strongest man in the world at its peak, gone!!!"

"Such an existence just vanished like that..."

"That's too terrifying!!!"

"5 seconds! Only 5 seconds left! Prepare to evacuate!!"

"Robin, catch me!!"

"Nami, be prepared to activate the Going Merry!!"

[Luffy looked down at the ground. From his current position, descending would probably exhaust him in 5 seconds.]

[He no longer had time to join the battlefield!]

"5 seconds..."

[Whitebeard heard this and his heart stirred!]

[He looked at Akainu in front of him~]

[No one on the Marine side could be reasoned with, only this guy would absolutely not allow him to leave Marineford alive!!!]

[Seizing the current buff of the Battle Drum Duet, he had to incapacitate this guy first!]

[Thinking of this, Whitebeard's hand slammed down fiercely towards Akainu~~~]

[His body instantly released a certain restraint. In that instant, the stamina he could expend was at least twice as much as before!!!]

[Regardless of whether it's Devil Fruit ability or Haki usage, all require expending stamina to activate.]

[So when you can instantly use more stamina, the Haki ability and Devil Fruit ability you can unleash will definitely be stronger!!!]

[It's like an engine instantly given more fuel, allowing it to unleash immense horsepower!]

[Originally, with Whitebeard's current physical condition, he could no longer use Conqueror's Haki~~~]

[However, under the amplification of the Battle Drum Duet, he could actually use it!!!]

[Pitch-black Armament Haki surged and intertwined. At the same time, massive crimson Conqueror's Haki energy surged and coiled~~~]

[This strike, even before it touched Akainu, violently exploded on Akainu's body!!!]

[Akainu never expected Whitebeard to suddenly launch a Conqueror's Haki attack. He was instantly sent flying to the ground by this blow!!!]

"Roar!!!"

[A huge pit instantly appeared on the ground!!!]

[Innumerable cracks instantly spread out from Akainu's location, resembling a spiderweb on the ground of Marineford...]

"Super Collapse!!"

Whitebeard, counting time in his heart, didn't waste the last two seconds. He directly charged forward with a short dash, raised his fist, and slammed it down onto Akainu's chest!!!

[Although the Battle Drum's amplification on him couldn't reach the absurd level of Luffy's amplification, it was still terrifyingly powerful!!!]

[With one punch, Akainu's body rippled like a wave, and blood immediately spurted from all seven orifices!!!]

"Gulp!!!"

[A powerful shockwave instantly penetrated Akainu's body, directly blasting a large hole in the ground beneath him!!!]

[Akainu was directly driven underground by this fierce impact!]

"Rumble rumble rumble~~~"

[A large amount of rubble and dirt collapsed in, burying Akainu!]

Marco: "Well done, Pops!"

Vista: "Good! Kill the Red Dog!"

Bepo: "Old man is truly amazing!!"

Edward Newgate: "Gurgle gurgle gurgle...!!! What's truly amazing is Red-Luffy's Battle Drum. If it weren't for the Battle Drum, I wouldn't have been able to use Conqueror's Haki, nor would I have been able to unleash such a powerful attack~~~"

Gol D. Roger: "Hahahaha! Whitebeard, you're directly interfering with governance, acting like a dragon...!!!"

Sengoku: "Hmph! A bunch of useless trash...!!! When the observation system ends, watch how I send you to hell!!!"

Seeing himself being hammered by Whitebeard, Akainu's heart was filled with both frustration and rage...

He wished the war would start immediately, so he could go on a killing spree!

[The next second, Whitebeard felt that powerful sensation from earlier rapidly receding like a tide within his body...]

"Flower-Flower: Net of Hands!!!"

[Robin crossed her arms, activated her Flower-Flower Fruit ability, and caught Luffy, who was falling from the sky!]

[A series of arms continuously coiled, pulling Luffy to Robin's side!]

[Robin smoothly received him, holding Luffy in a 'princess carry'~]

[But when Robin clearly saw Luffy's appearance, she couldn't help but shudder...]

"Oh my god!"

[At this moment, Luffy's entire body had completely shriveled, his skin loose and wrinkled, just like an old man of seventy or eighty~~~]

Monkey D. Luffy: "Ah... How did I turn into an old man of seventy or eighty~~~"

Jewelry Bonney: "He clearly said he was ninety now!!!"

Roronoa Zoro: "Hey! Big bear woman, shut up!!!"

Eustass Kid: "This should be the aftereffect of Straw Hat Luffy's ability. I remember when Straw Hat Luffy was on Sabaody Archipelago, after using a giant balloon, his body also shrunk. Although it's not quite the same as this, it might be a different side effect of his different abilities."

Trafalgar Law: "Yes, I remember that too."

Nico Robin: "But this time it looks very serious... I don't know how long it will take to recover..."

Looking at Luffy's appearance on the screen, Robin felt very heartbroken~~~

"Ah! Luffy!!"

[Nami, who had rushed over, also saw Luffy's appearance at this moment and gasped in alarm.]

"Don't worry, he should be suffering from the aftereffects of using that kind of power. He should recover!" Robin deduced for a moment, then said.

"Oh... Oh oh..."

[Nami's mood was a little panicked~~~]

[Although she could use the powers of the Slip-Slip Fruit to make her skin smooth, Luffy's current situation was still clear. She dared not use her power on Luffy again, especially after what happened with Chopper, right?!]

"Quick!! Retreat!!"

At this moment, Zoro, heavily injured, shouted to everyone.

[Sanji and Chopper, with the amplification of the Battle Drum, had already incapacitated CP0. Now, hearing Zoro, they unhesitatingly ran towards Nami and Robin.]

Rayleigh looked at Sengoku: "Don't pursue us. You know, I already showed you mercy just now!"

[Under the amplification of the Battle Drum, Rayleigh's combat power instantly erupted, completely suppressing Sengoku in a short time~~~]

[However, Rayleigh himself was just here to watch the commotion. He didn't want to forge too deep an enmity with Sengoku~~~]

[After all, he still had to live on Sabaody Archipelago later...]

[If he were to forge a deep enmity with Sengoku now, he would have to find another place to stay~~~]

He could change places without much trouble, but what about Shakky's bar?

Rayleigh took a step back, glanced at Sengoku, and then quickly retreated.

[Buggy's body instantly solidified into one. He called his subordinates over, and with his Devil Fruit power, he controlled four thousand-meter-long blade fragments to fiercely slash at him~~~]

Rayleigh came to Nami's side, then shouted to Whitebeard, "Hey! Whitebeard, Ace, come over quickly! Nami's ability can send you all out!"

Ace, who was opening a wall of fire in front, didn't head towards Nami's side. Instead, he charged towards Garp, grabbing Garp and leaving! "Grandpa, quickly, come with me and leave!!"

"No! Ace, you and everyone else go! I am a Marine Vice Admiral, there are some things I must face..."

Garp shook off Ace's hand, took a deep breath, and gritted his teeth, saying, "And... there are some things, I must ask clearly!!"

"What?"

["Grandpa!!! You'll definitely die if you stay!!!"]

[Hearing that Garp was actually going to stay, Ace frantically shouted.]

["Hey!! You two!! Now is not the time to argue here!!! That old man who just died said that the Holy Knight Corps is coming soon!!!! If they come, we won't be able to leave easily!!!"]

[Watching Ace and Garp still arguing, their faces red with agitation, Whitebeard sternly reminded them.]

[Ace was so anxious he was almost in tears. He shouted, "But I can't abandon Grandpa and leave him behind!!! Luffy would absolutely never do that!!!!"]

["Idiot! You too, and Luffy too!!! The old man's matters are not for you youngsters to decide!!!!"]

[Garp at this moment seemed to have already made up his mind to die and had no intention of leaving.]

["What should we do? There's no time. The Holy Knight Corps could arrive at any moment..." Usopp said with a grim expression.]

[All the Straw Hat Pirates fell into a dilemma~~~]

["Just leave?"]

["Then when Luffy wakes up and finds out Grandpa is gone, he'll surely die of grief!!!"]

["Don't leave? If the Holy Knight Corps comes, then Luffy won't need to wake up..."]

["Give me Luffy!"]

[Suddenly, Zoro walked over to Robin and snatched the "withered" Luffy from Robin's arms.]

["Whoosh!!"]

[He moved his foot, instantly appearing in front of Garp~~~]

["Old man Garp, since you want to die, then let Luffy accompany you here!"]

[Zoro stuffed Luffy into Garp's embrace, then pulled Ace and ran!!!!]

["Huh!?"]

[This sudden scene left everyone stunned.]

[But then, he angrily shouted, "Hey...!!! Bastard!!! Quick, take Luffy away!!!"]

[Ace, being dragged away by Zoro, was just about to struggle free when he suddenly heard Garp's distraught screams of despair behind him. He instantly understood Zoro's intention~~~]

[He stopped struggling and quickly joined Zoro and Nami.]

[Zoro shouted, "Straw Hat Pirates, in three seconds, withdraw!!!"]

["Alright!"]

[The crew members all understood Zoro's meaning and immediately cooperated~~~]

["Three!"]

["Two!"]

["One!"]

["Damn it! Wait, Zoro!!!"]

[Garp was furious to death, yet he was held captive by Luffy's life~~~]

[He himself wasn't afraid of dying, but he was afraid of Luffy dying...]

[If these guys really retreated, and he and Luffy were left at Marine Headquarters, then once the Holy Knight Corps arrived, Luffy would surely die without a doubt!!!]

[Although Garp really wanted to confront the Five Elders face-to-face and get a clear answer, at this moment, it was clear that his great-grandson's life was more important~~~]

["Alright! Hold steady! Depart!!"]

[Nami activated her Slip-Slip Fruit ability. Everyone was like they were on a bobsled, sliding out along the Crescent Platform on the right side of Crescent Moon Harbor~~~]

[The remaining Marine Admirals watched them evacuate, all tacitly refraining from acting.]

[...]

[On one hand, no one truly wanted to see Garp die. On the other hand, the remaining combat power of the Marines was truly dire!!!]

[If they angered the other side and forced them into a cornered beast's struggle, the Marines might even lose a few more~~~]

["Quick! Save them...!!!"]

[At Sengoku's command, the remaining Marines quickly went to rescue people~~~]

[Behind Marine Headquarters...]

[On a large wooden raft, the Blackbeard Pirates were here~~~]

[Just a while before the Summit War, the Blackbeard Pirates used their status as Shichibukai to enter Impel Down. They found Shiliew of the Rain.

Shiliew of the Rain and Blackbeard became like old friends at first sight and immediately decided to join the Blackbeard Pirates.

He even found Blackbeard several helpers on Level 6 of Impel Down, then successfully fought their way out of Impel Down.]

["Teach, what should we do now...???"]

[Looking at Whitebeard and the Straw Hat Pirates who had all safely evacuated, Shiliew frowned.]

[According to their latest prediction, they had originally planned to wait for the Whitebeard Pirates to be defeated, then infiltrate amidst the chaos, allowing Teach to obtain Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit...!!!]

[But now it seems this is clearly impossible!!!!]
