"Gurara rara..."
A loud laugh rang out, and everyone looked towards the tall figure at the bow of the Moby Dick. It was a man who was simply wearing a cloak, a hat, and wielding a large naginata. This man was extremely tall, several meters high, but what was most eye-catching was his white mustache, which was like a crescent moon.
"Whitebeard, Whitebeard has appeared!"
A terrified shout came from the mouths of many Navy soldiers. Although many people were seeing Whitebeard for the first time, they had seen Whitebeard's picture. But how could a picture be compared to the real person? Just looking at this man made many people nervous and timid.
"Is that Whitebeard?"
"So that's Whitebeard? He's so tall."
"Even through the screen, I can feel the enormous pressure. Is this the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard?"
"..."
Viewers all over the world watching the live broadcast shouted nervously. Ninety-nine percent of them had never seen Whitebeard. This was the first time they were seeing Whitebeard, so they were very surprised, but also very expectant, anticipating whether Whitebeard was really as strong as rumored and whether he was really the strongest in the world.
Sabaody Archipelago, which was the closest live broadcast site to Marineford, was where many famous people had gathered. The most famous recently were naturally the Supernovas of the same generation as Luffy. Because one of them had been killed by Akira, there were only ten of the original eleven Supernovas left.
At this time, these Supernovas were gathered in the Sabaody Archipelago. Originally, their destination was the New World, but because of the war that broke out between Navy Headquarters and the Whitebeard Pirates, they all stayed in the Sabaody Archipelago to watch this earth-shattering battle.
"Whitebeard that guy still appeared. He's old after all, after all these decades."
Rayleigh sighed softly as he saw Whitebeard's figure, revealing a look of nostalgia. He hadn't seen Whitebeard for more than twenty years. Whether it was him or Whitebeard, they couldn't resist the passage of time and had both grown old, no longer the young people who roamed the sea back then.
The whole world was staring at Whitebeard, while Whitebeard laughed loudly, looked at Sengoku on the execution platform, and asked, "Gurara rara, Sengoku, it's been decades since we've seen each other, right? Is my dear son doing well?"
Sengoku's expression was extremely gloomy, and he secretly hated in his heart, "Whitebeard, I didn't expect him to have invaded so close. To enter from the seabed, he was actually able to think of this method."
Whitebeard looked at Ace, who was restrained, and said with a smile, "Ace, don't worry, I'll come to save you soon."
Looking at Whitebeard, Ace was so excited that he was about to cry, shouting loudly, "Pops!"
Whitebeard released the large naginata in his hand, arched his body, and suddenly punched to both sides. His fists were clearly punching at the air, but it was as if he was hitting something solid. Not only that, but cracks actually appeared in the air where his fists hit, looking as if they had been blasted open.
But could the air be blasted open by fists?
All the Navy soldiers were looking at this scene in disbelief. Although they had seen Whitebeard's picture, few of them had actually fought Whitebeard. They didn't know how terrifying Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit power was at all.
Not only the soldiers of Navy Headquarters felt it was unbelievable, but the viewers watching the world broadcast were also dumbfounded. Even the air was shaken and cracked open. How much power would it take to be able to do that?
After Whitebeard's attack, the originally calm surface of the sea suddenly shook, and the seawater kept churning, as if a tsunami was about to occur. The water level kept rising, and many streams of water soared into the sky in the bay and at the bay head. The momentum was extremely frightening.
When the Whitebeard Pirates appeared, Akira and the others on the other side were also riding the warship into the Gates of Justice, heading towards Navy Headquarters.
On the ship, Ivankov mysteriously asked Luffy, "Luffy, I don't know if your father has come."
Luffy asked strangely, "Why would my dad come?"
Ivankov said, "His own biological son is about to be publicly executed. How could Dragon sit idly by?"
Luffy scratched his head and said, "No, Ace and I don't have the same dad. My dad is Dragon, but Ace's dad is Gol D. Roger, who was the Pirate King. It's just a pity that I didn't have the chance to meet him."
"What?"
Because Luffy's voice wasn't small, everyone on the entire ship heard it. When they learned that Ace was Roger's son, they all revealed looks of shock. Most of these people were pirates, so the Pirate King was the most respected existence to them. Even though Roger was already dead, he still had great prestige.
Ivankov was even more stunned. He had always thought that Luffy and Ace were biological brothers, so he risked taking everyone out of Impel Down together. But who would have thought that Ace wasn't Dragon's son? If that was the case, then Dragon definitely wouldn't appear. He didn't know if his prison break this time was right or wrong.
Jinbe, looking at Akira, who didn't even change his expression after hearing this secret, asked strangely, "Akira, how come you're not surprised at all to hear that Ace is Roger's son? I remember that you seem to have a big relationship with the Pirate King Roger. Back then, you even snatched his body in Loguetown."
Akira said, "I'm not surprised, because I already knew this secret."
Jinbe was relieved to hear that, he thought that Ace had told Akira, so he didn't ask any further.
Just then, suddenly, the warship that was traveling suddenly trembled, and then Akira discovered that the surface of the sea had suddenly started to shake.
Seeing this scene, Akira and Jinbe's faces changed at the same time. Akira even rushed to the bow of the ship, looking in the direction of Navy Headquarters. Immediately afterwards, a strong gust of wind blew over, quickly pushing the warship that was advancing backwards. No matter how Jinbe controlled the warship, he couldn't advance even half a step. Instead, it kept retreating.
After a long time, this strong wind stopped. Jinbe said to Akira, "Akira, that gust of wind just now?"
Akira nodded and said, "That's right, it's definitely Pops' ability. It seems that Pops has already arrived at Marineford. If that's the case, then we need to speed up."
Luffy anxiously pulled Jinbe and asked, "Jinbe, what's going on? We've retreated such a long distance. When exactly will we be able to reach Marineford Navy Headquarters?"
Jinbe said relatively calmly, "Luffy-kun, don't worry. We will definitely catch up. What you need to do now is to calm down. Only by staying calm will you be able to face Navy Headquarters with a better spirit when we arrive at Marineford later."
Akira said, "Don't worry. This is Pops' ability. I know Pops' ability very well. Just now, we were forced back by the sea breeze caused by the tremor power. But soon Pops' power will erupt, causing a powerful tsunami. The sea currents will become very swift. At that time, as long as we ride the giant waves, we will be able to quickly reach Navy Headquarters."
"Really?" Hearing Akira's words, Luffy asked excitedly.
Akira nodded and said, "That's how it is. However, what you need to be careful of is that the tsunami caused by Pops will definitely be earth-shattering. The waves will also be amazingly large. Although it will speed up our speed, it will also be full of danger, so you need to hold on tight at that time. Don't be knocked into the seawater by the waves."
After Akira finished saying these words, sure enough, after a while, the current of the sea suddenly became swift, and the speed of the warship was also rushing forward at a faster speed.
"It's true, it's true! The speed of the sea current has really become much faster! Hurry up and charge!" Luffy shouted excitedly.
The others on the ship were also looking at this scene in surprise. They had just heard Akira's words. They didn't expect that he would actually say it so accurately. In just the blink of an eye, it had really become as he had said, and the speed had increased a lot.
"Ah! Look quickly, what's that behind us?" Suddenly, someone turned his head and shouted with a face full of horror.
Marineford, Navy Headquarters!
The Navy and the pirates hadn't taken action immediately. Ace looked at Whitebeard and shouted loudly, "Why? Pops, I was the one who didn't listen to your advice and ran out. Why don't you abandon me? Why did you have to risk coming here to save me?"
