"Break!" A furious roar came from within the Black Energy. A vortex suddenly surged, and a spiraling blast shot out, tearing through the Black Energy Blackbeard had cast over them.
In that instant, two figures had already broken free from Blackbeard's attack.
But Blackbeard could no longer spare any attention to pursue them. He even turned his head about in panic, trying to find where the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, which should have been absorbed by him, had gone.

When Blackbeard turned around, he saw Sengoku and Garp moving toward his newly formed pirate crew. They clearly intended to join up with Aokiji and take down the heinous criminals he had freed from Impel Down.
On the other side, Admirals Kizaru and Akainu were leading Vice Admirals and other Marine Headquarters elites in pursuit of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Blackbeard shot Ronglin a vicious glare, his eyes fixed tightly on the small box at Ronglin's waist, before turning and charging toward the Blackbeard Pirates.
"Damn, he finally left!" After pulling Ace out, Ronglin had been wary of Blackbeard's pursuit. Seeing Blackbeard turn and leave now, he could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

"My friend, thank you for helping us time and again today." Marco had Ace take Whitebeard's body away
