Akainu's Death Flag (3rd Update)
Position determines mindset.
Red-Haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, made the same decision as Whitebeard.
Sasuke Uchiha is an important member of the Red Hair Pirates.
Shanks would never stand idly by.
The option of escaping never even crossed his mind.
With his charismatic personality, Red-Haired Shanks, the members of his pirate crew responded to his call with a single gesture.
All the crew members shared the same thought and purpose—to rescue Luffy!
With everyone united and working together, no one harbored any selfish thoughts.
This is quite different from the Whitebeard Pirates.
The Shichibukai, the Four Emperors, the Three Admirals, and 200,000 elite soldiers...
Various factions were secretly plotting and preparing for Marineford's public execution.
The New Fish-Man Pirates, a small, insignificant force, can muster 50,000 people. This time, the World Government only needs elites who won't be instantly killed by Conqueror's Haki.
Therefore, even with his best efforts, Fleet Admiral Sengoku the Buddha could only muster 100,000 elite naval troops.
With the help of the Celestial Dragons and Commander-in-Chief Kong Garp, this number doubled.
After all, this time, they've provoked more than just the Whitebeard Pirates.
The relationships involved with Straw Hat Luffy are intricate and complex.
On the surface, he appears to be the son of Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army.
But the Straw Hat he was wearing once belonged to Red-Haired Shanks.
According to intelligence gathered, there is an inexplicable connection between the two.
Three short days passed in the blink of an eye.
At this very moment, at Marineford, Marine Headquarters.
Two hundred thousand elite soldiers gathered together.
They all passed rigorous political vetting and had very firm ideological stances; even if they were to die on the battlefield, they would not back down or waver.
Even after special, targeted emergency training, Conqueror's Haki couldn't eliminate them like regular soldiers.
The Domain Gate is opened.
The seawater surged.
The Gigai of Luffy, Naruto, Sasuke, and Ace, held captive on the execution platform, await the fall of fate's blade.
The live broadcast signal was transmitted to all parts of the world.
People all over the world are eagerly awaiting this moment.
The Red Hair Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates' fleets slowly entered the harbor.
No one stopped them.
Invite them into the trap, and they'll be willing to come in.
It's a matter of mutual consent.
The battle hadn't even started, but the atmosphere was already tense.
The ordinary soldiers on both sides were breathing rapidly, their pupils slightly constricted, and their mental state was stretched to the limit.
The Shichibukai and the Three Admirals were stationed in the center of Justice Square.
Seeing their figures, the elite soldiers' wildly beating hearts calmed down a little.
"Kill!"
It is unknown who fired the first shot of the war.
It doesn't matter.
In short, the fierce fighting and battles began.
War is a zero-sum game.
There is no possibility for the two sides to turn hostility into friendship; there can only be one victor.
In the midst of the fierce battle, a group of mysterious figures made their appearances in bizarre ways.
Tsunade, Spider Demon, Jiraiya, Tony Stark, Loki, Thor...
The Reincarnator's stance is strange.
They seemed to have a good relationship with each other, but each of them helped different forces.
Some people help the pirates, while others help the navy.
They were like third parties deliberately trying to disrupt the situation and make it even more tense.
"Luffy!"
Ace was surrounded by Lie Yan, as if the Fire God had descended to earth.
His pupils were so constricted that they were almost imperceptible, and there was a great deal of white in his eyes, which made him look somewhat frightening.
Any soldier who gets close to him will be instantly blown away, turned into charred remains, and shattered into pieces.
The Protagonist Academy students, acting as bystanders and observers, appeared completely indifferent.
The Ghost Girl Perona couldn't help but ask, "Dean, do you need our help?"
It's such a shame that Luffy, that simple-minded guy, died like that.
Wang Yan merely glanced at her indifferently, offering no response.
Nico Robin, the only teacher at the Protagonist Academy, has now been transformed into a Mengmeng little girl due to the Time Reversal Backlash.
With a serious expression on her little face, she said in a childish voice, "It's not the right time yet, let's wait patiently..."
Natasha and Nami, however, remained calm and did not do anything out of line.
Blind trust blinded them.
"Wonderful."
Wang Yan closed his eyes, seemingly reminiscing about the past, or perhaps exploring the future.
After a long pause, he said in a Youyou voice, "Will ideals never come to an end?"
In the original timeline, Whitebeard led his forces to attack Marineford, the Marine Headquarters.
This war is known as the "Battle of Marineford".
During the final battle, Edward Newgate was injured by a counter-espionage plot, Straw Hat Pirates, Impel Down escapees, and the Blackbeard Pirates joined the battle one after another.
Ultimately, Marine Headquarters Admiral "Akainu" Sakazuki killed Fire Fist Ace, who was trying to protect Luffy, and the Blackbeard Pirates finished off Whitebeard.
The war was ended by Red Hair, one of the Four Emperors, while Whitebeard's dying words ushered in another climax for the Great Pirate Era.
Now, with his involvement and that of the Reincarnator, the timeline has become intricate and the situation has been completely altered.
Sabo rescued Ace, leaving behind Gigai to mislead the Marines. Luffy, Naruto, Sasuke, however, ended up like the Calabash Brothers trying to save their grandfather, each one of them getting themselves killed.
Because there were no mandatory missions in this Summit War, the Reincarnator made different choices based on their own preferences and interests.
As time passed, the battle was nearing its end.
Squard, the captain of the Whirlpool Spider Pirates who had been turned against Whitebeard, attempted to assassinate him, but was intercepted in time by Ace, who was already prepared.
Enraged, Ace struck first despite being behind, unleashing the full power of the Flame-Flame Fruit, causing the Hong Lian Lie Yan to erupt and instantly killing Squard with three punches!
In this situation, the elderly, wounded, and Edward Newgate, in a final burst of energy, displayed formidable fighting prowess.
The early arrival of Red-Haired Shanks, a fresh addition to the team, caused the situation to deviate completely from Sengoku the Buddha's predictions.
"Die!"
Akainu Sakazuki threw off his Justice Cloak and Flash Step to rush to the execution platform.
Dark red, scorching magma slowly flowed from his fists as he slammed Luffy.
Fire Fist Ace has finally appeared, and everyone knows that the walking corpse on the execution platform is now a real person.
If you can't kill the One Piece's posthumous son, killing the Revolutionary Army leader's son can achieve a similar effect!
"Stop."
Those two seemingly light words carried an immense weight, pressing down on Akainu so much that he couldn't lift his arm.
Everyone present stopped what they were doing.
Red-Haired Shanks, Edward Newgate, Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach, the Three Admirals, Sengoku the Buddha, Commander-in-Chief Kong Garp, and all the Reincarnator...
Everyone's eyes instinctively focused on Wang Yan.
He slowly stood up and walked towards the execution platform.
One hundred meters...
Eighty meters...
Thirty meters...
Closer, even closer.
Every step Wang Yan took felt like stepping on everyone's hearts.
He came up to Akainu.
Wang Yan is not short, but compared to Sakazuki, who is 2.3 meters tall, he looks like a teenager in the process of growing up.
Many things require a frame of reference.
Back when Earth was a non-magic plane, even a muscular giant like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would look like a little brother standing next to Yao Ming, who is 2.26 meters tall.
Wang Yan didn't speak, Akainu already knew what he meant.
Sakazuki felt his throat go dry and his body trembled uncontrollably.
He gritted his teeth, his jaw muscles twitching slightly, and with sheer willpower, he issued a death warrant. "Shorty, get out of the way!"
