You Don't Regret Having Me as Your Father, Do You?

Akainu's words were full of sarcasm and disdain, as if he already regarded Whitebeard as a giant about to fall.

Despite his severe injuries, Whitebeard's gaze remained firm and sharp. He stared at Akainu, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Akainu, do you think you've won? The honor of Pirates can't be easily taken away by your fists!" Whitebeard said with difficulty.

Meanwhile, Whitebeard's grip on Blackbeard's hand had, without anyone noticing, quietly loosened its hold!

Before Akainu could react, Whitebeard used the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to send both Akainu and Aokiji, who were attacking him, flying away!

"Dad!" Whether it was Ace or the other Whitebeard crew members, they all wanted to get to Whitebeard's side as quickly as possible!

Whitebeard's gaze sharpened, and he used his strength to throw off the Murakumogiri, completely separating himself from his family!

"Dad! What are you doing?!" Marco, who had broken free from Kizaru's side, had a vague idea of what Whitebeard was doing after seeing his actions!

Whitebeard sensed his own condition; he knew his time was running out!

For the sake of his sons, Whitebeard issued his final "captain's order."

"Dad!"

"Dad!"

Shouts came from the opposite side!

Whitebeard rallied his spirits and said, "I must say goodbye to you all here! You must all survive and return safely to the New World!"

"Dad! Don't joke around, we have to go back together!" Ace said, tears welling in his eyes.

Whitebeard shook his head and said with difficulty, "I am a remnant of an era, and the New Era has no ship to carry me! Let's go! Don't look back, the era depends on you young people to change it."

"Hmph! You Pirates think you can just leave? Did you even ask the Navy for permission?" Akainu said disdainfully.

Whitebeard stared intently at the Admiral: "This journey of mine has been truly long. Marines, let's settle this!"

Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru have all gathered together; it seems the three of them are preparing to attack together!

Ace knew that his father was risking his life for a final chance at survival! He knelt before Whitebeard.

Whitebeard turned around, and as if sensing something, said, "You don't need to say anything more... Ace, just tell me one thing..."

You don't regret having me as your father, do you?

Ace, with tears streaming down his face, said, "Of course!"

"Woo-la-la-la!!!"

"I don't regret being your son for so many years!" Blackbeard suddenly launched a surprise attack on Whitebeard in front of him!

Blackbeard's sudden attack caught everyone off guard. Like a cunning viper, he launched his attack quietly while everyone was immersed in an atmosphere of grief and farewell.

Although Whitebeard was severely injured, his combat experience remained rich. He sensed Blackbeard's movements, but by this time he had exhausted too much power and could no longer mount an effective defense.

Blackbeard, wielding Dark Water and grinning maliciously, charged toward Whitebeard. His purpose was clear: to seize this opportunity and take Whitebeard's life in one fell swoop.

"Dad, watch out!" Ace shouted, but it was too late.

Blackbeard's Dark Water instantly pierced Whitebeard's chest, staining his clothes crimson with blood. Whitebeard groaned, but he didn't fall; his eyes widened as he stared intently at Blackbeard.

"Why...?" Whitebeard's voice was filled with disappointment and anger.

Blackbeard sneered and said, "Whitebeard, do you really think you understand me? I'm not your son. I'm just a Pirates, a Pirates who will do anything to survive. Your era is over. Now it's my era!"

Whitebeard listened to Blackbeard's words, a trace of sorrow flashed in his eyes. He understood that he had once misjudged someone, and that person's betrayal had cost him his life.

However, even if he was about to die, he had no intention of letting Blackbeard go!

Whitebeard was gathering the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit in his hand, but Blackbeard seized the opportunity to use Dark Water to nullify Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Devil Fruit ability!

"Hahahaha! Whitebeard, did you see that? This is my Devil Fruit ability! I can nullify your Tremor-Tremor Fruit! No matter how many times you attack, you won't be able to use your Devil Fruit's power!" Blackbeard said arrogantly.

Unfortunately, Blackbeard's arrogance was of no use; he was defeated and laid to the ground by the heavily wounded Whitebeard in a single exchange.

Whitebeard pinched Blackbeard's head again and said, "Arrogance and recklessness are your weaknesses!"

Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Devil Fruit ability covered Blackbeard Teach's head!

Blackbeard felt a sense of crisis. "Stop! Father, I'm your son!"

The Tremor-Tremor Devil Fruit ability exploded directly, Teach was already seriously injured by this attack!

"Father, you're awesome! The enemy is on his last breath! Quickly kill this traitor!" Seeing Blackbeard's attempt to steal a chicken backfire, they realized they'd only hurt themselves!

The Whitebeard Pirates got excited!

However, it wasn't long before someone noticed something was wrong. Because their father was standing still, not moving at all.

"Why isn't Dad moving?" someone asked.

Marco said with tears in his eyes, "It's not that he doesn't want to move, but the continuous fighting has worsened his injuries. Now, Dad's body has reached its limit!"

However, even in his final moments, Whitebeard did not give up! He struggled to his feet, using his last strength to kill Blackbeard!

"You monster! Can't you just die in peace?!" Blackbeard's fear intensified as he watched Whitebeard approach.

A gunshot rang out from Blackbeard's hand; the bullet, fired at close range, was like the final straw.

Whitebeard's every movement completely stopped!

"Dad!"

Marco transformed back into his Phoenix form! But Kizaru stepped in front of him first!

Ace wanted to go too, but Akainu blocked his way!

The Three Admirals would naturally not allow the Pirates to stop this scene of infighting!

Seeing this, Blackbeard felt a glimmer of hope for survival.

He shouted, "Attack him together! Take him down! All of you!!!"

Blackbeard's current crew, except for San Juan Wolf, who is too large and inconvenient.

Everyone attacked the exhausted, Whitebeard, some with knives, others with guns!

Meanwhile, Buggy the Clown's Visual Den Den Mushi returned to normal, the image remaining frozen on the destroyed Execution Platform, plunging the entire battlefield into silent shock.
