King the Conflagration VS Marco the Phoenix!

To call Edward Newgate completely devastated would be an exaggeration, but to say he was utterly shocked would be an understatement.

On his way to Wano Country, he had anticipated that he might face a massive naval fleet, or even a combined force led by Garp and Sengoku.

But he never dreamed that what would stop him would be Big Mom and Kaido!

The cold wind and rain lashed haphazardly at the 'Whitebeard' face, his angry pupils blending with the wind and rain, the colors before his eyes seemingly obscured by dark clouds.

"Mamamama~~, for certain reasons, I cannot let you set foot in the country behind us!"

Charlotte Linlin's feelings were actually quite complicated at this moment. Despite her nonchalant smile, she still felt intensely uncomfortable facing 'Whitebeard's' questioning.

"I remember you once said you wanted to become the One Piece after Roger, but now it seems that was just empty talk!" Edward Newgate laughed angrily.

At the same time, he suddenly felt a sense of loneliness. Roger was dead, Shiki was gone, and Oden was dead too.

Although Big Mom and Kaido had clashed with him many times in the past, those were just competition between peers.

When facing the World Government, they can still stand on the same side and fight together against external threats. This is why the World Government and the Navy have had difficulty expanding their influence in the 'New World' over the years.

Furthermore, since they both came from the Rocks Pirates, they were considered half-comrades in Whitebeard's eyes.

But now these bastards actually want to join the World Government's camp!

And then there were Byndi Wald, Chinjao, and other great One Piece of his generation. For a moment, Edward Newgate looked around at the vast ocean and suddenly realized that there was no one he could team up with!

On his side of the battle, he was inexplicably left all alone.

"Why?"

Edward Newgate shouted out the question he most wanted to know in the pouring rain.

"What has the World Government given you that has made you give up even your own ambitions?!"

A furious roar, carrying a violent aura, swept across the surging wind and waves, and Marco and the others behind realized that their Pops was truly angry.

"You'll find out about this sooner or later, but for now, get out of my way—"

Charlotte Linlin was quite embarrassed and annoyed, and she was already in a bad mood. If the other person hadn't been Edward Newgate, she would have slapped him to death long ago.

But now, she could no longer hold back.

"Prometheus!"

"Yes, Mom!"

Big Mom stood atop the Thundercloud and shouted, and the ball of fire with a humanoid face floating beside her immediately echoed her words.

"Is the fight finally about to begin?"

However, Kaido anxious than her. The fighting spirit in his dragon eyes turned into a red light that stained his pupils. Without saying a word, he opened his blood-red maw, and a bright fireball condensed in his mouth.

Its appearance and the resulting high temperature instantly formed a Formless barrier, evaporating all nearby rainwater into a thick white fog.

The moment the fireball expanded to its maximum size, it transformed into a pillar of flame, erupting with boundless light and heat, instantly illuminating the dim world. In the blink of an eye, it traversed hundreds of meters, hurtling towards the location of the Moby Dick.

"Bolo Breath!"

The scorching dragon breath from the Azure Dragon immediately opened the battle.

[Swish----]

Sudden.

A bluish-yellow shadow streaked out from behind Edward Newgate at high speed, forming a large bluish-yellow circular shield in front of him and the ship, colliding with the oncoming scorching dragon breath.

Under the torrential rain, Blue Flame and Huoguang occupied both sides, and Shockwave even more violent than the Tornado swept in all directions, making the scene extremely impressive.

Even after the Azure Dragon's Bolo Breath exhausted its last flame, it still couldn't break through the Phoenix's defense.

Marco's figure was reshaped in the Blue Flame, and he looked at Kaido in the air and chuckled, "How could we let you touch our jewel so easily?"

Is it "Marco, the First Division Commander, the 'Phoenix'?"

Kaido closed his mouth, his long dragon body swam through the dark clouds, his oppressive gaze fixed on his opponent. He was now much stronger than Marco, but the latter's abilities could indeed cause trouble in a prolonged fight.

"Brother Kaido, leave him to me!"

Just then, a dark shadow wrapped in Huoguang swooped down from the thick clouds. As it passed Kaido, a soft voice caught everyone's attention.

It was a huge black Pterosaur with Agni on its back. Like a supersonic fighter jet, it hurtled towards the 'Phoenix' formed from Blue Flame with a sharp whooshing sound.

"King, the Conflagration of the Beasts Pirates? A troublesome opponent has arrived!"

Marco's expression turned serious, but he maintained a relaxed smile on his face; that was just his optimistic and cheerful personality.

"Pops, I'm going to get back to work!"

"Okay, it's up to you!"

Under Edward Newgate's approving gaze, the 'Phoenix', Coating in ever-burning Blue Flame, transformed into a streak of fire and shot out.

"Tankyūdon!"

"Phoenix Seal!"

The Fatalis wings wreathed in Agni Coating with the bird claws burning with surging Blue Flame amidst layers of Sound Explosion and shockwaves.

[Boom!]

The blue and red flames intertwined, and the air was compressed into ripples by the terrifying force, raging across the entire area.

[Bang bang bang bang.]

The two made no attempt to warm up, engaging in fierce combat from the moment they clashed, with continuous explosions erupting from their attacks.

In the blink of an eye, Jhin and Marco clashed wildly at high speed, almost becoming two terrifying afterimages weaving through the Huoguang, fighting at breakneck speed.

Wherever they went, heavy rain, Tornado, and Suiryu would be swept away in an instant; no matter how extreme the weather, it was no match for the violent aura created by the two of them together.

Twenty-one-year-old Marco and twenty-four-year-old Jhin are showcasing their fighting talents to the fullest!

In this way...

Kaido started making moves again. Not content with the status quo, he opened his dragon mouth once more, this time spewing out not flames, but countless massive Wind Blade.

"Demolishing Gust!"

The scene was as if hundreds of naval officers were unleashing their "Rankyaku" simultaneously, blanketing Edward Newgate's sky.

It seems he's determined to have a showdown with 'Whitebeard,' even though he's been defeated countless times before, he still enjoys it immensely.

It's a pity.

Edward Newgate remained motionless in the face of Kaido's renewed attack, not even bothering to look at him. Then, another figure suddenly appeared from behind him.

[Boom boom boom boom.]

Countless sharp Wind Blade, each nearly two meters long, rained down on the man, but he silently endured all the cutting and slashing like a shining, indestructible treasure mountain.

"Damn it, another one!"

Kaido glared angrily at Jozu, the third division commander of the Diamond Whitebeard Pirates, who had blocked all of his Wind Blade and landed heavily on the bow of the Moby Dick.

"Marco is right, you can't touch Pops!" Jozu said in a deep voice, his face expressionless.

At the same time, the captains of the Fourth Division, Thatch, the Fifth Division, Vista, the Sixth Division, Blamenco, and others stepped forward one by one to face the ferocious Azure Dragon hovering under the dark clouds.

This left Kaido, who was practically all alone, speechless.

Once upon a time, he had a group of men under his command, but now only Jhin is left to fight for him.
