Ace's identity exposed! Whitebeard arrives!
A soft dragging sound of a chain came from headquarters.
Everyone knows that the main character in this incident Fire Fist Ace, has appeared.
On the highest Execution Platform, beneath the clashing Sharp Blades, Ace awaited his destiny.
On the Execution Platform, the voice of the Sengoku was broadcast to everyone's ears.
"There's something I need to tell you all!"
Everyone listened intently to what Sengoku would say next.
Haku raised an eyebrow, then awkwardly shifted her posture.
Meanwhile, Sengoku's voice continued to resonate from all directions of headquarters via Den Den Mushi.
"Portgas D. Ace! The profound significance of this man dying here today!"
Sengoku remained calm, gazing ahead, and said, "Ace! Say your father's name!"
Ace glanced at Sengoku and said, "My dad is Whitebeard!"
"No!" Sengoku said directly.
Thinking of his biological father whom he had never met, Ace felt a surge of anger and said, "There's nothing wrong with that! My only father is Whitebeard!"
Seeing that Ace refused to admit it, Sengoku directly revealed, "Back then, we were also afraid that his bloodline would survive. So, based solely on the limited information from CP0, we conducted tests on the infants and pregnant women on that island during that period!"
"But who would have thought that your mother, Portgas D. Luju, this woman, would use her cunning schemes to deceive everyone!"
Haku's expression also darkened, after all, Ace's mother had taken care of him for a period of time.
Now, hearing Sengoku's pointed words, he felt quite displeased!
"This woman actually let her child stay in her womb for twenty months, and when your mother gave birth to you, she died on the spot!"
"That's right! She succeeded! She successfully evaded the detection of the Navy and the World Government for this child with sinful blood!"
"You! Portgas D. Ace, your biological father is the Pirate King Gol D. Roger!"
Before the war even began, the first major global news story had already broken!
Aside from a few high-ranking members, no one in the Navy had ever imagined that the Pirate King Gol D. Roger actually had a son!
This news was like a boulder thrown into calm water, creating ripples everywhere. The entire Marine Headquarters, and indeed the whole world, was in an uproar.
"The son of the Pirate King Roger is him!" someone exclaimed, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
"This... how is this possible?" some people murmured to themselves, as if they couldn't accept this fact.
Ace's original status as the Whitebeard Second Division Commander seemed utterly unimportant at this moment!
Despite the current chaotic situation, everyone's focus is still on the Whitebeard Pirates!
Having already 'heard' something, Haku then spoke up, "Silence!!!"
Haku used her Spiritual Power when she uttered those two words!
Although the scene was a bit noisy, Haku's voice quickly drowned out all the noise!
"That's terrifying! You have such a loud voice, kid." Kizaru said with an exaggerated expression.
Aokiji and Akainu, however, did not show any change in expression!
Just as everyone's attention was focused on Haku, Sengoku asked from the Execution Platform above, "Hey kid, what happened?"
Haku remained seated, pointed to the sea outside headquarters, and said, "Quite a few guests have already started to appear, and there are quite a few of them!"
Now that Haku has said that, everyone knows the enemy has arrived!
Just as the navy was shifting its focus overseas, Haku pointed downwards at the Crescent Harbor and said, "The guests from the sea will arrive soon! Fleet Admiral, it seems your strategic direction has been misguided!"
Haku's words were like a bombshell, causing a huge uproar at Marine Headquarters. Everyone turned to look at him, their faces filled with shock and confusion.
Sengoku frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. He looked at Haku and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean by that? Didn't you just say the enemy came from..."
Sengoku's expression changed, and he immediately fixed his gaze on the location of the Harbor.
The sentry on the high platform shouted, "They're here! Everyone, prepare for battle!"
"It's a Pirates fleet! Quickly, find out where Whitebeard is!" someone shouted again.
Sengoku ignored those voices; all the naval high command were focused on Haku's words.
They set their gaze on the sea below Crescent Harbor!
Bubbles were rising continuously from the surface, as if there was something truly beneath the sea!
Soon, the three Moby Dick, coated with hull film, appeared in the center of the Harbor!
"As expected! These guys really did come in from the seabed using a hull. We miscalculated!" Sengoku said with a grim expression.
Haku sensed the most powerful aura emanating from the three ships, and he couldn't help but click his tongue and mutter, "It seems like healing this guy might not be such a good thing!"
The main reason is that Whitebeard's current aura is on a completely different level compared to when he fought Haku before.
If Whitebeard, while ill, could only unleash half his usual strength, then Whitebeard now, restored to his peak...
Their strength is absolutely unfathomable!
"Looks like we're really in for a tough fight this time," Haku muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with a fervent fighting spirit.
Just as the Marines were shocked by the arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates, the thirteen division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates made their appearance!
Their faces were filled with fanatical smiles, as if they couldn't wait to start a major battle with the navy.
Whitebeard himself slowly and imposingly walked to the bow of the ship. His tall stature and the sharp glint in his eyes instilled fear in some of the less-than-pure marines!
Whitebeard looked up at the high platform of the Marine Headquarters, a mocking smile playing on his lips, as if he already considered the Marines as his own.
"Sengoku, have you taken good care of my son? If not, are you prepared to face our wrath?" the Whitebeard shouted, his voice as powerful as thunder.
Sengoku's face darkened; he knew this situation had spiraled out of his control. He took a deep breath and shouted, "All marines, prepare for battle!"
As Sengoku finished speaking, the navy began to move in an orderly fashion. They picked up their weapons and assumed fighting stances.
Meanwhile, the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates were eager to fight, and an unprecedented naval battle was about to break out.
