Holy Land, Marigoa:
In the Hall of Authority, the Five Elders watched the war events in the manga with serene expressions.
Whitebeard's arrival in his flamboyant manner, and the small flashback of Ace, didn't even change their facial expressions.
"Whitebeard is so sentimental It seems he lived his childhood without a family."
At this moment, Marcus Mars spoke with a hint of disdain in his voice towards Whitebeard.
"He gathers scoundrels around him and gives them his protection. Look, this is how a traitor finally cleanses among the sons. Hehe, this Teach is truly something..."
The flashback was still ongoing, seeing Whitebeard's calm and somewhat indifferent reaction after the death of one of his alleged sons by another of his sons made Ehantbaron V. Nasjuro laugh coldly at Whitebeard's foolishness in handling this crucial situation that was the beginning of the end for him.
"Who is currently leading the second division among the Whitebeard Pirates?"
Saint Warcury wondered.
"Wasn't that samurai from Wano? What was his name again? Ah... Kozuki Oden."
"Kozuki Oden is no longer a pirate now, he has taken responsibility for Wano and has become the new Shogun already."
Saint Nasjuro clarified, who was more interested in Wano affairs.
Although Wano is no longer isolated from the world as it used to be in the past thanks to the art store, the global maritime transportation company, and the world forum, it still hasn't fully opened up yet, and the reason is due to its rugged terrain.
"Let's leave Kozuki Oden and Wano for now, shall we? What do you think, why don't we bet? How long will Edward Newgate and Roger's son last in this war?"
A smile appeared on Saint Nasjuro's face, who enjoyed gambling as the Warrior God of Finance.
"Maybe 10 days?"
Saint Ju Peter suggested.
"10 days? That's too long for a war that could be highly tactical, I believe it will end in one day."
Saint Saturn stated his opinion.
"Hmm, Whitebeard is still a force to be reckoned with us, so let's assume he'll last 5 days facing the admirals and Sengoku... if Garp intervenes, he'll last one more day."
Marcus Mars expressed his opinion.
"You've given him more credit than he deserves... as an old man on the brink of death, Akainu will be more than enough to deal with him, I assume he'll be done within half a day, I bet a quarter of my fortune on it."
The eyes of the rest of the Gorosei widened at the sight of Nasjuro betting a quarter of his fortune, it seems that this cunning fox who loves money wants to play his tricks on them again.
"I'll bet..."
"I accept your bet as well..."
"You're betting a quarter of your fortune on that magma Logia user? Were his results in the admiral test at that time really good? Well, Whitebeard is still Edward Newgate after all, I'll bet with you too."
"I want to wait and see if Garp will participate in the war or not, then I'll bet as well."
From above, Imu watched her entertained servants who were enjoying their time and continued to watch the war events with a smile on her face.
"Fufu~ An old man without a real family, and a king's descendant without a past or future, I wonder how their true end will be." she said.
...
Chapter's Events:
Upon witnessing the Whitebeard Pirates' vow to destroy anyone who caused harm to Ace, Aokiji sighed, saying:
"That's some enemy we've earned ourselves there"
"The hell are you blabbering about at this stage?" Akainu retorted disdainfully.
Kizaru added, saying:
"This certainly is unpleasant~"
...
At that moment, everyone's attention was drawn to a deafening explosion.
"What is this rumbling!?" Moria wondered.
"Here it comes The seaquake that he caused just now is coming back as a full-fledged tsunami!!!" Garp said with grim expressions. Then he elucidated the source of Whitebeard's power.
"Edward 'Whitebeard' Newgate user of the Gura Gura no Mi, an Earth-Quake Man!!!"
"Ahhhh!!"
"Look, It's a tsunami!!! It's huge!!"
Marines entered into a panic when they saw the horrifying size of the tsunami heading towards Marineford.
"We may have the greatest force, but we must not take this opponent lightly!!!"
"It may well be us who will meet our end here today For that man"
Sengoku took a deep breath and declared loudly,
"HAS THE POWER TO DESTROY THE VERY WORLD!!!"
"THE WAR IS BEGINNING!!! ATTAAAAACK!!!"
Through the display screens in Sabaody Archipelago, hundreds of thousands of people witnessed the beginning of the greatest war the world had ever seen, with expressions of utter shock covering their faces.
[On the attack: a fleet of 47's New World pirate ships, under the banner of Whitebeard.]
[On the defense: the two great governmental powers Marine Headquarters and the Royal Shichibukai.]
[No matter who prevails, no matter who falls The world is about to change!!!]
"No matter who prevails, no matter who falls, the world is about to change Indeed, fufu~"
Imu laughed excitedly upon witnessing this epic scene.
"These vibes remind me of that war that truly changed the world I wonder if the world will witness a war like it again, for compared to a global war of that caliber, the Marineford war is just child's play."
Imu's foggy memory reverted to events of another war of this caliber, 800 years ago, where there were gods and demons on earth fighting, each destroying the other.
Imu's eyes widened at the sight of her demise when she saw that crescent laugh and the familiar laughter's tone in her memory, that white figure that could play with her like a little child and she was just a toy in his hand and she could do nothing but surrender to his whims.
" Brother will you really return again?"
"I look forward to it"
Marine Headquarters:
"The war has begun It's truly embarrassing to see my counterpart praising the power of Whitebeard like this"
Sengoku's face reddened with embarrassment, but he quickly regained his composure and regained his dignity as Fleet Admiral.
He stood up and went to his desk, and wrote down the final words in the chapter, those that show the forces attacking and the forces defending.
"Now the picture is clear, this war is a war whose outcome will be determined by the life and death of Ace. If Ace dies, it means our victory in the war, even if we cannot kill Newgate If Ace survives, it means our defeat in the war, even if we kill Newgate"
"The second outcome seems very likely to me, Sengoku" Zephyr spoke at this moment.
"I also think so" Tsuru nodded. Although she was the Great Staff Officer, she did not want to see Ace die. Portgas D. Rouge's sacrifice to safely give birth to Ace had greatly affected her.
She never wanted to see him die, not just her, but all the women in the world who were currently reading the manga, regardless of their backgrounds and orientations, were fully sympathetic to Rouge and therefore to Ace.
"I think my counterpart will ensure the execution is completed perfectly, so it is likely the war will end in our favor. Killing Whitebeard will be an additional reward."
Like the expectations of Zifu, Crane, and vice admirals present like Momonga, Doberman, and others, Sakazuki had more faith in his future counterpart.
"How will Whitebeard sink Marineford with me there? I don't see a possibility for that, so relax."
Kuzan sighed a cold air's breath as he said this.
"What an amazing war I didn't expect events to escalate to this extent, Rob is truly brilliant~"
Borsalino commented as well.
"Sengoku-san, is the Fleet Admiral's task only to declare the start of the war? Hehe~ I want to see Buddha crush the Earthquake Man!"
