Plan
Despite being surrounded by the crowd, Xia Qiu was not harmed in the slightest.
After their attack, Xia Qiu launched a counterattack.
"Roar."
Xia Qiu roared, and the sound waves spread out in all directions. Not only that, but Conqueror's Haki burst forth from his body.
Conqueror's Roar.
It was like a Rumble-Rumble Fruit that exploded in the heavens and earth, then transformed into sound waves that spread outwards.
Thump, thump, thump.
Under the influence of the sound and Conqueror's Haki, one sailor after another fell to the ground, unconscious. At first, they were just soldiers, then lieutenants, then Lieutenant Commander, and finally Commander, before they could withstand the attack.
However, they could barely keep themselves from falling to the ground, but under the loud noise, their eardrums ruptured and blood flowed out, and they could no longer hear anything.
As for the Vice Admiral, they felt a tightness in their heads and their hearts felt like they had stopped beating, but they were not greatly affected.
The three Admiral who were nearby— Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Garp, and Momousagi —Hawkeye also felt the tremor and their bodies froze slightly.
Accompanying the Conqueror's Roar was an armor formed from Armament Haki, which instantly deflected everyone's attacks, blocking both Aokiji's ice and Akainu.
"Life Return."
It wasn't over yet. Xia Qiu instantly controlled his six arms and legs, shooting them off in all directions.
One arrow shot towards Hawkeye, who gripped the black blade Yoru in his right hand and slashed forward.
clang.
The wrist and the Black Blade collided, producing a metallic clang. Hawkeye felt a powerful force pressing down on him, causing his body to sway.
Another tentacle shot towards Momousagi, who raised Momousagi twin swords to block it.
clang.
Momousagi slid her feet backward, creating some distance between them.
A tentacle shot towards Kizaru, Kizaru easily dodged it with a quick movement. Worried about the other tentacles, he went directly to the rear half of Xia Qiu's body, but Xia Qiu's tail was already waiting there, striking towards Kizaru.
"Oh my."
Upon seeing the oncoming tail, Kizaru immediately raised his hands, forming Armament Haki.
Bang.
Kizaru was struck as if by a shield, his body flying backward and heading into the distance.
The two tentacles attacked Garp and Sengoku respectively.
"Shockwave, Iron Fist."
Garp and Sengoku instantly broke free from the effects of the Conqueror's Roar and raised their hands to launch an attack.
boom.
Xia Qiu's two arms were directly squeezed and deformed. Their strength reached a certain level, exceeding the limit of the arms, and even Armament Haki could not completely resist it.
The last tentacle shot towards Aokiji.
The latter unleashed a powerful strike with its right hand, sending countless icy shards forward. However, these shards were pierced by its wrists and feet, penetrating deep into Aokiji's face.
"What immense power!"
Aokiji's heart tightened, and he pressed his right hand forward, releasing Armament Haki.
clang.
Its six arms and legs held off six powerful figures.
The next moment, Xia Qiu opened her huge mouth and bit at Akainu.
"Damn it."
Akainu immediately realized that his target was him, and just as he was about to move away, he froze.
Two tentacles wrapped around it.
"It's useless."
Akainu roared, his arms turning into magma and instantly melting away the tentacles. Facing the giant maw that was already in front of him, he punched out again, "Hell Hound."
Akainu's right hand lashed out, but the next moment, it was covered by a gaping maw.
Click.
Akainu's body was bitten in two and he collapsed to the ground.
"It's so hot, so hot."
Xia Qiu spat out the upper half of Akainu and clicked his tongue in amazement.
"He killed Akainu with a single blow."
The others looked on incredulously at what they saw, but no one gave up; instead, they continued their attack.
"Shockwave, Iron Fist."
Sengoku and Garp stood at opposite ends, one slamming down a giant Buddha palm from above, the other unleashing Iron Fist from below.
The two attacks had just landed on Xia Qiu's head when he vanished.
boom.
The Marine Headquarters behind him exploded and fell into pieces.
Amidst the ruins, Sengoku lay there, spitting blood, while Garp was buried under the rubble and then vanished without a trace.
Not only that, the Execution Platform was also smashed.
Xia Qiu's figure had already vanished without a trace.
Where did he go?
The group searched around, Hawkeye Eye narrowed his eyes, saying, "Up there."
A dark shadow flew through the air and disappeared into the distance before crashing down.
boom.
Xia Qiu landed on the ship behind Whitebeard, then slowly extended her tentacles and placed Neptune on the ship, saying, "He's rescued."
Thank you.
Whitebeard said with a smile, glancing at Neptune, who had already fainted.
"You're welcome, it's our agreement."
Xia Qiu promised Whitebeard that if he cooperated, he would help him rescue King Neptune.
Swoosh.
Xia Qiu's figure vanished instantly, and he charged towards the Navy once more.
"Ice Wall".
Suddenly, Aokiji exhaled Freezing Gas toward the sea, and countless layers of ice piled up upwards, forming a thick wall.
But the wall had barely taken shape when it broke.
boom.
Xia Qiu emerged from the ice and crashed into Aokiji, sending him flying and crashing to the ground, coughing up blood.
Before the ice could fall, Hawkeye's sword and Momousagi's slash appeared again.
Bang, bang.
Xia Qiu kicked out twice, landing a kick on Hawkeye and Momousagi.
boom.
Hawkeye was sent flying backward, landing on the distant ruins. He steadied himself and coughed up blood.
Click, click.
The long sword in Momousagi's hand shattered with a crash, and she herself was thrown a distance away, with countless bones in her body broken.
"Um?"
Xia Qiu looked up, Kizaru raised his hand, saying, "Hey, hey, I can stop now."
"Snort."
Xia Qiu snorted coldly, lowered his head and swallowed Akainu's corpse, saying coldly, "I have already let you go once. If you want to die, then you are welcome to launch another attack."
A group of Vice Admiral surrounded Xia Qiu, but hesitated to launch an attack.
They were willing to fight to uphold the dignity of the navy, but now they were committing suicide. In just a few rounds, the Admiral and Fleet Admiral had already fallen.
What exactly do you want?
In the distant ruins, Sengoku emerged from the rubble, with Garp following closely behind.
"Submit to me."
Xia Qiu said, "From today onwards, the Navy and the World Government will belong to me alone. If you serve me as your master, I will let you go."
Are you going to treat us like your slaves?
Garp said coldly, "We can't do that."
"Haven't you already become the Celestial Dragons ' lackeys?"
Xia Qiu said, "You can submit to that bunch of good-for-nothings, so why can't you submit to me?"
"You don't understand."
Sengoku shook his head and said, "The Celestial Dragons are not as weak as you think. They are very strong, and even we must obey their will."
"Strong? You mean I'm not strong?"
Xia Qiu said coldly.
"I don't know how strong you are."
Sengoku sighed and looked at Xia Qiu, saying, "But we can't do anything to you. Even so, we must fight you to the last moment, even if it means death."
"Then you... are wrong."
Upon hearing this, Xia Qiu was about to launch another attack when he suddenly understood what Sengoku meant.
The Celestial Dragons definitely have a trump card, and even they are no match for it.
However, they did not know whether this trump card was stronger or weaker than themselves, so they dared not do anything, fearing that if they were defeated, they would implicate them. Therefore, they had to fight to the last moment, even if it meant death.
"Very good."
Xia Qiu looked at Sengoku and said, "Anyway, you're no longer a threat, but you're still somewhat useful. So I'll give you one more chance. I'll come back to you after I kill the Celestial Dragons. I hope you can give me a clear answer then."
Upon hearing Xia Qiu's words, Sengoku immediately transformed into Buddha Form and loudly proclaimed, "I absolutely cannot allow you to harm the Celestial Dragons."
As he spoke, Sengoku appeared in front of Xia Qiu and struck with his palm again.
Swoosh.
Xia Qiu vanished instantly, returning to Whitebeard's side. He said, "I'm going to kill Celestial Dragons. These people shouldn't pose a threat to you. Our agreement is fulfilled."
"So, are we even now?" the Whitebeard asked Xia Qiu.
"Well, you don't owe me anything anymore, so do whatever you want."
Xia Qiu laughed and leaped towards the Red Line. With a few leaps, his figure disappeared into the distance.
"Do you think he can beat that thing?"
After he left, Garp couldn't help but ask.
Regardless of whether we win or not.
Sengoku looked into the distance and said, "As long as they can both be severely injured, we will have a chance to break free from the Celestial Dragons ' control."
"That's right."
Crane walked up to the two of them and said, "As long as we can seriously injure them, we can take advantage of the situation and enter."
"All troops, launch an attack."
Sengoku clenched his fist and shouted, "We must pursue the Giant Beast, support Mary Geoise, and we absolutely cannot let him harm the Celestial Dragons!"
"All troops, launch an attack."
All the Vice Admiral led their soldiers onto the ships and acted according to Sengoku's orders.
"Dad, what should we do?"
Marco looked at Whitebeard, "Should we stop the Marines?"
Why are you stopping them?
Whitebeard laughed and said, "I know what Sengoku is thinking. They plan to use this opportunity to get rid of the Celestial Dragons. We run, but we flee towards Mary Geoise."
With that, Whitebeard stood up and said, "Now that we've settled our debts, if possible, we should join forces with the Navy to kill the victors."
"The entire army retreats and follows Mr. Xia to attack the Celestial Dragons."
Marco immediately gave the order, and all the Whitebeard Pirates ' ships set off together, following Xia Qiu towards the Red Line.
With Whitebeard in front and the Navy behind, hundreds of ships headed towards the Red Line.
Both Whitebeard and the Navy intend to wait for a result.
Waiting for an opportunity to kill the final victor.
Whether it's Xia Qiu or autumn, or being possessed by Celestial Dragons, neither can survive in this world.
Once they are dead, the world will be free.
