The Final Piece of the Puzzle
Soon, Imu flew back, but by then the Sirius was nowhere to be found in the sky.
"Have ships evolved in tandem with them four years later?"
Imu shook his head helplessly.
Four years ago, he could keep up with the speed of that ship, but things are different now; the ship is now ridiculously fast.
His speed over short distances was certainly faster than that ship, but for long-distance flights, four years ago was already his limit.
"However, it shouldn't be too long, right?"
His voice held a hint of laughter, "The final battle."
"Black Wolf Sirius, I'm really looking forward to the final battle."
The wreckage of the Marine Headquarters below has completely disappeared, leaving only a turbulent sea.
The remnants of the navy survived the battle by using their combined strength and Haki to reinforce a large ship made of ice.
The Shichibukai, having nowhere else to go, also boarded this ship.
At this moment, everyone silently looked up at the figure in the sky, waiting for it to make a decision.
The battle that had just taken place before them was beyond everyone's imagination, like a scene from a myth unfolding before their eyes.
It's unbelievable that such a powerful being exists in the world!
Imu looked down, but those below couldn't see his face clearly. He was enveloped in a layer of light, and all they could see were the individual orbs of light surrounding him.
"Get ready, Navy."
Imu's voice held a hint of amusement. "The final war is about to begin."
Then, he transformed into a beam of light and vanished into the sky.
The navy remained silent.
After a long silence, Aokiji finally scratched his head, looking somewhat troubled, and said, "So this guy really is the boss Black Wolf was talking about, our boss's boss's boss?"
Everyone's expression turned somewhat strange.
Now it seems that this is indeed the case.
It seems the Five Elders are hiding a lot from them.
"I will contact the Five Elders immediately."
A weak voice came from not far away. The marines turned around in surprise and saw Vice Admiral Garp leading Sengoku Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who was pale-faced, wading through the waves.
"We need an explanation no matter what!"
The Sengoku period was serious.
At least one thing needs to be clarified: for the past eight hundred years, has the navy fought for justice, or for any particular individual?
"By the way, where's Whitebeard?"
Akainu suddenly remembered something.
Whitebeard killed Blackbeard, but he's not dead yet, so where is he now?
"That man's words,"
Crocodile said calmly, "It sank with Marineford."
"... Waaaaah, Daddy!!"
The filial son Weevil, had already begun to wail loudly.
"It's better that he's dead."
Sengoku nodded slightly. Judging from the current situation, Whitebeard was no longer a threat, so it didn't matter if he left the stage like this.
Sengoku was about to contact the Five Elders by phone when another call came in.
"What?! Dr. Vegapunk has been kidnapped?!"
This is another piece of bad news.
Shiryu was unaware of what happened next at Marineford; the Sirius was currently flying over the sea.
"So, after getting the last stone, we have to head to Laugh Tale?"
The Golden Lion sat on the gunwale and asked with a smile.
"That's right,"
Sirius stretched and said leisurely, "The day has finally come."
"I've been waiting for a long time."
Yamato a grin.
"Damn it, is it still too slow?"
Kid gritted his teeth in bitter resentment, "I'm the one who should be the Pirate King!"
From the very beginning, he set his sights on becoming the Pirate King.
"There's nothing we can do,"
Ace shook his head helplessly. He wasn't as disappointed as Kid; he even had a smile on his face. "Sirius is too strong."
"Wait, is Sirius going to become the Pirate King?!"
The Straw Hat Kid only just realized what had happened, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Yes."
Sabo nodded and said, "We already have three stones. After getting the whereabouts of the last stone from Whitebeard, and collecting all the road signs, we can head to Laugh Tale immediately."
"Eh!!!"
The Straw Hat Kid was terrified.
"Sirius!" he cried, "Come and duel with me, and whoever wins will be—"
Before he could finish speaking, his companions tackled him to the ground.
"Idiot! How could you possibly win!"
Didn't you see the fight just now? Their strength was on completely different levels!
Grass Boy still looked very unwilling; this was his dream since he was a child.
Sirius smiled. "If you don't mind, taking you to Laugh Tale isn't out of the question."
"Huh? Really? Is that okay?"
The Straw Hat Kid's eyes lit up instantly.
Even if I can't become the Pirate King, reaching the Final Island is still pretty good.
"Sure."
Sirius laughed and said, "I'm planning a banquet in Laugh Tale, and of course, the more people the better."
"Yay!!"
Sirius turned to look at Golden Lion and Teacher Kaido.
"What about you two? Are you coming along too?"
"Hehehehe! The Final Island, huh? Not bad."
The Golden Lion laughed heartily.
"Of course I won't miss it!"
Teacher Kaido did not refuse.
"I want to go too!" Kid shouted.
"Me too, of course," Ace replied.
"Then let's all go together!"
Sirius said with a smile.
The Sirius was traveling at full speed toward Whitebeard's homeland, the island called Sphinx.
On the way, Dragon called Sirius, saying that they had taken advantage of the chaos in Marineford to kidnap Vegapunk.
Sirius invited Dragon to go to Laugh Tale with him, but Dragon declined, saying that the Revolutionary Army still had a lot of preparations to make for the Final Battle.
Sirius was naturally speechless.
When Shanks contacted him next, Sirius readily accepted the invitation, because he hadn't gone to the Final Island when Roger Pirates landed there for some reason.
However, he didn't have Sirius go directly to Wano Country to pick him up; instead, he said they would meet at the Sphinx.
Sirius knew that the Uranus wouldn't be slow once he was fully mature, so he wasn't worried that the guy would arrive too late.
Straw Hat Kid, on the other hand, was very excited about the fact that he was about to meet Red-Haired.
The speed of the Sirius was beyond question, and in no time at all, they arrived at Sphinx Island.
Then they landed directly on the highest mountain peak that Whitebeard had mentioned.
The last stone is buried here.
"Black."
Sirius Road.
"Found it."
Black glanced briefly at the mountains below, then quickly spoke.
He pointed out the direction, and then Sirius jumped down, cutting the ground in two.
The final large red rock was then revealed before him.
I finally got the last piece of the puzzle.
