"Alright then!" Garp nodded and didn't say anything more.

Sengoku said no more and focused intently on the battlefield ahead. He was now the commander of this war, and the battlefield was ever-changing; he had to be constantly aware of these changes and make appropriate arrangements accordingly.

If he doesn't make adjustments in time, many people could very well die as a result. Every soldier here represents the Navy's hard work and dedication; they absolutely cannot die in vain.

He must minimize the losses; only then can he be considered a capable Fleet Admiral!

Ace knelt on the ground, looking at the battlefield before him, his expression extremely excited. He felt a pang of regret; when he went to pursue Blackbeard, his Pops had stopped him, telling him not to act recklessly. Blackbeard was not someone to be trifled with; he had remained hidden on the ship for so many years without uttering a sound, but now that he had made his move, he must be a cunning and shrewd individual.

However, because of his youth and impulsiveness, he ignored advice and was captured by Blackbeard and handed over to the Navy.

His current predicament is essentially his own fault. If he had listened to advice back then, he would still be living a good life in the New World.

Now, in order to rescue him, his Pops has brought his entire pirate crew, making him feel utterly ashamed.

Seeing his companions fall one by one, he felt extremely distressed, as if he were being cut by countless knives.

These companions wouldn't have died otherwise, but they risked their lives to save him. He truly didn't know what to say.

Now that the war has begun, he can't stop it, and his Pops is unlikely to listen to his advice. His Pops is a man of great loyalty and righteousness; he would never easily abandon his comrades.

His comrades were right in front of him; if he gave up now, he wouldn't be Whitebeard.

Ace could only watch silently, praying that his comrades would be safe. He knew it was futile, that war was merciless, but he still hoped they could do everything in their power to survive.

Seeing Ace's overwhelming excitement, Garp sighed helplessly. Ace was someone he had raised, practically his grandson. But Garp was a Marine, while Ace was a pirate.

Pirates and marines are inherently enemies. He really couldn't secretly help them, otherwise, he would be utterly defeated.

If he were willing to lend a hand, it would be extremely easy. His strength is comparable to that of Admiral; if he were to take action against Sengoku, he could very well rescue Fire Fist Ace.

However, he couldn't cross his own bottom line! So, he didn't take action, and even helped the marines guard the area.

After a moment, Garp stood up and headed down from the execution platform. He wasn't going to stay there any longer, because the longer he stayed, the more uncomfortable he felt. Rather than suffer mental torment here, he'd rather find some peace and quiet elsewhere.

Ace watched his grandfather walk away and sighed helplessly. It was his grandfather's duty not to blame him. Becoming a pirate was his own choice, and he had to bear the corresponding responsibility.

"Uncle with the Whitebeard, how about I do you a favor?" Fanxin looked at the Whitebeard, chuckled, and said.

"What kind of help?" the Whitebeard asked, puzzled.

"You should be able to send me to Akainu's side, right?" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

"Hmm, you're not going to fight me?" Whitebeard was stunned upon hearing this. Just now, Fanxin had been so confident in his ability to fight him, and now, at this crucial moment, Fanxin was actually leaving, which puzzled him.

"Hehe, I'm just here to give you some information; fighting is secondary," Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

"Intelligence? What intelligence?" Whitebeard asked, even more puzzled.

"You're here, not even moving forward yet. Getting past here will be extremely difficult. And with every step you take, countless marines will attack you. Reaching Ace's side will be incredibly challenging. So, I've come here to take you there and deliver you directly to the Execution Platform," Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

He did indeed want to fight Whitebeard, but he couldn't possibly fight Whitebeard to the death. Because this was a battlefield, and he and Whitebeard could only fight side by side against a common enemy; only in this way could they win this battle. If he fought Whitebeard to the death, the Marines would be the ones who benefited in the end.

By then, the Whitebeard Pirates will inevitably suffer a crushing defeat. Not only will they fail to rescue Fire Fist Ace, but many of their own will also lose their lives.

In the end, they'll be the ones who suffer. Fanxin doesn't want to see that happen.

He only came to test his skills against Whitebeard. Of course, his most important goal was to send Whitebeard to the Execution Platform.

The Little Fox was already there, waiting patiently. All he had to do was carry his Whitebeard. Then, the Little Fox used gravity to pull them in, and they could both be below the arena at the same time.

In this way, they can save a lot of time.

He hadn't known the Little Fox had woken up. If he had, he would have used this trick long ago to send the entire Whitebeard Pirates to the execution platform. That would have made things easier for everyone!

"Oh, you have a way?" the Whitebeard asked in surprise.

"Hehe, if I can get here so quickly, I naturally have a way to get back to where I started," Fanxin said. "Don't hesitate, Uncle Whitebeard, time is running out. There are less than forty-five minutes left until Ace's execution."

"Alright, we'll do as you say." The Whitebeard nodded slightly in agreement.

"Since that's the case, then don't resist," Fanxin shouted.

Whitebeard nodded and immediately sheathed his weapon.

Without saying a word, Fanxin immediately put the Whitebeard into the Diamond Space.

Then, Fanxin came to Squard's side and said, "You're such an idiot! You actually listened to Akainu's slander. This was clearly a trick by the Navy. Now they've succeeded. Whitebeard is injured, and his fighting power will definitely be greatly reduced. I really don't know what to say to you."

Squard remained silent for a long time after hearing this.

The fact that his Pops killed him with his own hands and then protected him speaks volumes. His Pops loved and cared for them. It's just that his heart was blinded by greed, and he couldn't distinguish truth from falsehood.

"Alright, stop being upset, go do what you need to do." Fanxin originally wanted to kill him, but since Whitebeard was protecting him, he couldn't do it. If he really killed him, Whitebeard would definitely be unhappy.

Upon hearing this, Squard could only nod helplessly.

Seeing that Squard had left, Fanxin no longer hesitated and began to gather his men.

He collected all the members of the Whitebeard Pirates into the Diamond Space. Many people were puzzled, wondering where they went. However, Fanxin didn't explain; as soon as he saw them, he simply threw them into the Diamond Space.

Marco, seeing Fanxin's actions, was very puzzled and asked, "What do you mean by this? Where have you taken your Pops?"

Although he had seen Fanxin release people before, he didn't know where they were. Now, Fanxin's actions made him concerned, because Fanxin had taken away members of the Whitebeard Pirates.

As the captain of the first division of the pirate crew, he naturally had to inquire about it.

"I put them in my personal space. Then, I'll send you all over together, which will save you a lot of time," Fanxin explained simply.

"I see, then you can put me in too!" Marco said.

"No, you're more useful outside," Fanxin said.

"What's it for?" Marco asked, puzzled.

"If we go directly there, someone will definitely attack us, but your Phoenix ability can help me withstand the attacks. Therefore, you must stay outside," Fanxin said.

He took Whitebeard away, and the Navy will definitely keep an eye on him. At that time, he will become the target of everyone's criticism.

He'll inevitably be attacked on his way there. So he hopes Marco will lend a hand.

"Okay, it's settled then." Marco didn't object.

They were still here, but Ace's execution time was drawing ever closer, and they had to act. Otherwise, things would get complicated. Moreover, with their Pops seriously injured, they couldn't delay any longer; they had to act quickly. Only in this way could they hope to rescue Ace.

"Alright, wait a moment." Fanxin nodded, then sped up and collected all the Whitebeard Pirates members around him into the Diamond Space.

Of course, he didn't spare Ren Fang, Bingfeng, and Wang Yan either; he took them all with him.

He took all the Whitebeard Pirates members away, so the Marines have lost their opponents and will all turn their attention to Ren Fang and her group. That would be a huge burden for them.

These were his own crew members, and he didn't want them to suffer. So, he decided to take them with him.

The main battlefield is about to shift, so there's no need for them to stay here.

"Alright, Marco, come here," Fanxin called out.

Marco nodded and went over immediately.

"Stand behind me and put your arms around my waist," Fanxin said.

Marco felt awkward doing it, but he did it anyway in order to arrive on time.

Seeing that Marco did as he was told, Fanxin put away his twin swords and then tightly gripped Marco's waist.

"Little Fox, let's begin. I'm ready," Fanxin shouted.

Below the execution platform, the Little Fox nodded slightly upon hearing this, then without hesitation, it flew into the air and enlarged its body.

Soon after, a fox, as large as a giant, appeared, extending its enormous right forepaw and aiming at Fanxin.

"Ultimate Attraction!" the Little Fox shouted.

A moment later, Fanxin felt a powerful pulling force acting on his chest. The force grew stronger and stronger, eventually pulling Fanxin and Marco away, heading straight for the execution platform.

They practically teleported through space, arriving here in an instant and there in a flash, heading straight for the Little Fox.

On the execution platform, Sengoku's expression changed drastically upon seeing this scene. He shouted, "Akainu, act immediately and finish off that fox!"

Sengoku hadn't figured out the reason before, but when he saw Fanxin flying over at top speed, he immediately understood.

Fanxin's actions weren't about fighting Whitebeard to the death, but rather about rescuing Whitebeard. If Fanxin succeeded, they would be in serious trouble.

Whitebeard is already angry. If Whitebeard gets close to this place, he'll turn it upside down. By then, it will be too late for them to stop him.

Therefore, if they want to stop them, they must deal with the Little Fox that brought them here; once it dies, everything will be fine.

Akainu nodded and immediately stood up. Then, he activated his demonic power, turning his body into magma. Without hesitation, he immediately attacked the Little Fox, manipulating the magma to strike its back.

The Little Fox sensed it, immediately turned around, and swung its left front paw, launching an attack at Akainu.

It used an extremely strong repulsive force. Akainu was right behind it, and it couldn't spare a moment to react, so it could only use the repulsive force to send Akainu flying.

The immense repulsive force acted on Akainu, sending Akainu flying.

However, Akainu is a hardliner; after being knocked down, he immediately got up and launched an attack again.

He created countless volcanic bombs, which rained down from the sky and landed on the Little Fox.

However, the Little Fox was not afraid. It immediately used its Haki to cover its entire body. A moment later, it transformed into a giant Heihu.

The lava fell on it but did not cause it any harm. On the contrary, the marines suffered heavy losses and had to leave the area.

The magma was too hot for them to handle.

The Little Fox saw many Admiral and Vice Admiral gathering in its direction, seemingly about to surround and kill it. Knowing the situation was urgent, it didn't hesitate and immediately increased its strength, pulling Fanxin hard. Then, it stopped.

It has already used the strongest gravity; under the influence of inertia, the Fanxin will continue to fly until the inertia disappears. Of course, if it collides with an obstacle, that's a different story.

With that momentum, the Fanxin could easily fly to the execution platform. It wouldn't need to worry about it anymore.

Fanxin and Marco shot towards the execution platform like cannonballs.

Admiral and Vice Admiral were dispatched to intercept Fanxin and Marco.

The Little Fox immediately took action, blocking some of the Vice Admiral. However, due to the sheer number of them, it was unable to stop them all.

It didn't try to be strong; it believed that Fanxin could handle this.

"Marco, move! Use your abilities to protect us! Their attack is imminent!" Fanxin shouted. The Admiral and Vice Admiral around him rushed over, but they were in the air, and he was in the air too, unable to fight back. So, he could only rely on Marco for protection.

"Understood," Marco chuckled and said.
