Whitebeard Pirates vs. the Navy

In the distance, a distinctive Dog-Head Warship with a large bone in its mouth was approaching.

Everyone on the Whitebeard Pirates and Sakazuki's warship saw it. Such a warship is unique even in the Navy. It is a symbol of Garp's status, and it can be said that everyone in the New World knows about it.

"Haha! Newgate, do you want to taste my iron fist?" Garp, standing at the bow of the ship, laughed loudly at the Whitebeard on the Moby Dick.

"Gurararara! Garp, let me see if your fists are rusty. I heard you got a good beating from Roger and the others last time!" Whitebeard laughed without any politeness.

The mere sight of them exuded an aura of impending battle. The two strongest kings faced each other, and Whitebeard emanated a terrifying aura that was suffocating. The marines who had never seen Whitebeard before trembled involuntarily. His six-meter-tall stature, powerful physique, and invisible mental pressure filled them with fear.

"Are we going to fight monsters like this?" a marine asked in fear, shrinking back two steps, his hand holding the sword trembling uncontrollably.

Whitebeard, who was already renowned, gave off an overwhelming sense of power upon their first meeting.

"Don't be afraid! Mr. Garp is here!" Seeing the unstable mood and declining morale within the Navy, a naval officer shouted.

If this is the case before the great battle even begins, what will happen in the battles to come? Without the determination to fight without hesitation, victory is impossible. Garp's warships are alright, but the marines on Sakazuki's warships were selected by Sakazuki from the navy, and their experience is still somewhat lacking.

Upon hearing the news that Garp was there, the marines immediately gained confidence. "That's right! Marine Garp the Hero is here, he will definitely defeat Whitebeard, there's nothing to be afraid of," they thought excitedly.

This immediately boosted the morale of the Navy. Garp the Hero, had a very high reputation in the Navy. Facing the Whitebeard Pirates, he felt no fear and his body seemed to be filled with power.

Unexpectedly, Garp's name alone could turn around the morale of the Navy.

"As expected of Vice Admiral Garp!" Kuzan exclaimed in admiration after witnessing the changes in the Navy.

Facing Whitebeard, Garp surprisingly unleashed a powerful aura that was in no way inferior to Whitebeard's.

The sky seemed to darken, and Kuzan knew what he was about to do. He leaped from the warship into the sea, startling many people.

Kuzan landed steadily on the sea, which was frozen solid. He stood on an ice floe, his body covered in ice, with white frost emanating from him. He bent down, squatted on the ground, and put his hands into the sea.

"Ice Age!" he exclaimed, and then a powerful burst of cold air erupted from his hands. The sea surface froze into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye, spreading forward continuously. The surrounding sea surface was also frozen, and in the blink of an eye, the entire ocean seemed to be frozen, and the two warships and the Moby Dick were all frozen solid.

In an instant, Kuzan used his power to create a battlefield made of ice on the sea.

"Haha! Well done Kuzan," Garp laughed.

"Frozen brat?" Whitebeard said, his eyes narrowing. This scene was shocking to both the Marines and the members of the Whitebeard Pirates. They had seen them a few years ago, and including Sakazuki, they hadn't expected them to grow so fast.

"But that's perfect!" Whitebeard shouted with a smile, pointing his child's sword at the Marines, "Kids! Let's have a good fight!"

At Whitebeard's command, "Go! Kill these marines!" The pirates on the ship rushed off the Moby Dick, some jumping directly off the ship, others sliding down the ropes.

"Kill these pirates!" Sakazuki shouted, charging ahead as the first to charge.

A great battle was about to break out. On the distant battlefield, Garp and Whitebeard faced off, their fists clashing. Whitebeard's shockwave and Garp's Haki combined to create a situation where they were evenly matched.

However, Whitebeard is now implicitly considered the World's Strongest. Even though Garp's Armament Haki could withstand Whitebeard's punches, it couldn't stop Whitebeard's vibrational power. Through Haki, the vibrational power directly entered Garp's body and attacked him.

As the strongest Paramecia Devil Fruit, Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit is incredibly powerful, and it reached its peak in Whitebeard's hands.

"Haha! Garp, not bad." Whitebeard laughed, his sword standing on the Moby Dick. Fighting a martial arts expert like Garp, he didn't need to use weapons; fighting Garp with weapons wouldn't be enjoyable at all.

Black and red Inazuma flashed across Whitebeard's fist, and he punched Garp across the way.

"Hmph! You're the same old you." Garp threw the same punch, chuckling as he spoke.

The two fought while talking, but showed no mercy. The violent collisions caused the air to vibrate and spread outwards. There was no one else within a fifty-meter radius.

"Die!" Sakazuki's fist transformed into lava. "Hell Hound!" His rapidly extending lava arm attacked a pirate at incredible speed. The power of this move was extraordinary, combined with the high temperature of the lava.

"Ah!" The pirate screamed in agony as the terrifying magma pierced through his entire abdomen, burning his body. Then, his body lost all life and collapsed lifelessly to the ground, already dead.

"Damn it!" Sakazuki showed no mercy, striking with extreme decisiveness. Seeing his companion killed, Jozu roared in fury, his arm transforming into diamond as he charged towards Sakazuki with incredible speed and power, appearing behind Sakazuki and delivering a powerful punch.

Sakazuki was struck from behind and sent flying forward. In front of him, Fossa, wielding a large sword, was ready and slashed at Sakazuki.

However, Sakazuki was prepared; his Armament Haki forearm blocked the attack.

Sakazuki is facing an attack from two of the Whitebeard Pirates' officers.

Kuzan, on the other hand, faced Vista's attack, with the help of Thatch, the ship's cook, Thatch was also a swordsman and skilled in hand-to-hand combat.

Marco is currently fighting with the first mate on Garp's ship. He was initially outmatched in strength, but he is able to easily maneuver around the enemy using his own abilities.

The others could choose their opponents. The navy's high-end combat power was tied up, and the remaining strongmen dealt with the remaining navy, but there were also some formidable opponents among these navy members.

Especially on Garp's ship, even the most ordinary marines possess astonishing strength. The weakest among them has mastered one of the Marine Six Styles. If they were to leave Garp's warship and remain in the Navy, their rank would likely rise several levels higher.

Moreover, the Navy's numbers also exceed those of the Whitebeard Pirates. Garp's ship has 500 men, Sakazuki's warship has 1,000 men, which is roughly twice the number of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Teach was holding a knife he'd picked up off the ground and was fighting a marine from Garp's warship. However, being too waterskied wasn't good either, as two other marines were attacking him from the side.

Thus, the two sides remained evenly matched, and on the ground of the battlefield where he stood, lay three or four corpses, who had died at his hands.

Teach kept his power within a certain range while also keeping an eye on the situation. Apart from the three main battles between Garp and Pops, Sakazuki and Kuzan, the other battles remained evenly matched. Although the Whitebeard Pirates had fewer people, they still had the upper hand.

Several powerful combatants were unable to be contained, including executives such as Jingudo, Rayok, Blennheim, Izo. Even though they faced numerous marines trying to restrain them simultaneously, marines continued to die at their hands. Teach was inconspicuous among them, his presence steadily diminishing, his Observation Haki concealing his aura.

Just as the Navy kills pirates, the Pirate Kill the Navy. Teach held a knife in his right hand and drew a black gun from his waist with his left, firing it to the side.

Unexpectedly, Teach had another trick up his sleeve. One of the navy men attacking Teach froze, because the muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at him.

Steam rose from the muzzle, but he wasn't hit. Had he missed? Dodging Teach's swinging longsword, he looked back and saw a navy man lying on the ground with a bloody hole in the back of his head—a bullet hole.

Just as he turned his head, a kick came straight at him. Teach kicked him in the face, sending him flying backward and crashing into the ice. At the same time, "Bang! Bang!" Two gunshots rang out.

Opening their eyes, they saw two more marines fall outside their battlefield. These dead marines had initially gained the upper hand in their battle against the pirates, but in the blink of an eye, they were ambushed and shot dead by Teach.

"You're really looking down on us." Not only him, but the other marines surrounding Teach were also angry. In the midst of fighting them, he actually had the time to support other pirates, which was a complete disrespect to them.

Their companions died from Teach's gunshot wound and Teach attack. They were filled with anger and shame. It was their fault for not restraining Teach and giving him the opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

Teach was tightly surrounded. "Shigan!" A finger shot pierced the air, and Teach dodged to the side. Then, a knife shot came from the other side, and Teach parried with his own knife.

However, what they didn't notice was that the marines and pirates fighting around them seemed to gradually ignore their presence, and didn't take them seriously even when they saw them.

Their presence was gradually fading, affected by Teach's Observation Haki. They also seemed to ignore their comrades fighting around them, their eyes only on Teach, angrily attacking Teach relentlessly.

The battleground Teach chose was on one side of the Moby Dick, near the outer perimeter, while the main battlefields were on the other side, out of their sight.

Teach's sneak attacks were difficult to defend against, or rather, impossible to avoid. The timing and angle of his shots were meticulously calculated, and one sailor after another died under Teach's bullets.

Mobius and his group were also in this direction, not far from Teach could provide support at any time.

Mobius faced two marines simultaneously, wielding the Yagami Blade in one hand, constantly battling them. Several corpses lay around him, fallen to his blade. These marines were all formidable, and Mobius was using them to hone his skills.

During his two months with the Whitebeard Pirates, his strength improved significantly. He held back when fighting the other crew members and also made progress after the battle with the Roger Pirates. Now, it's time to test himself.

Mobius held the knife in both hands. He had been practicing basic swordsmanship every day for the past few days. Although his sword-wielding technique wasn't perfect from a professional perspective, it was still quite respectable.

When the time was right, Snake Hand, using his swordsmanship, slew the marines in front of him.

Occasionally, a Marine would try to ambush Mobius from behind while he was fighting, and Teach would fire a bullet at him.

Wos was like a killer in the shadows, a hidden viper, wielding a short sword and Night Raid. He nimbly dodged the Navy's attacks, and even when facing two or three Navy soldiers, he could rely on his reflexes and agility to avoid them. He would occasionally parry a Navy soldier's long sword, seize an opportunity, and burst out with astonishing speed in an instant before thrusting his short sword forward.

He has now begun training in the Marine Six Styles. To Teach's surprise, Wos is about to learn the Shave Six Powers in a short period of time. Wos's highest compatibility is actually with the most difficult Six Powers, Kami-e. Rather than saying that Life Return to the essence of the Six Powers, it is more like an extension of Kami-e.

Whether it's a direct assassination or a covert one, Wos has developed his own fighting style. After killing the enemy he fights, he begins to backstab other marines, seizing the opportunity and delivering a fatal blow each time, leaving no unnecessary moves.

Pito looks somewhat thin and cute, but he is extremely fierce and deadly in battle. When Pito enters his human-beast form, his appearance does not change much, but a pair of white cat ears grow on his head, a long white tail grows on his back, his hands become sharp Cat Claws, and his pupils become blue cat eyes.

Having learned claw techniques from Teach, and encouraged by Teach, he could completely endure the pain and trained diligently. He was wearing a black denim outfit and a white hat.

Sharp claws slashed across the neck of a navy officer, who stared in astonishment at the young girl before him. What was captivating was her pure, innocent eyes, like those of an angel, yet terrifying beyond measure.

The battle lasted a full day, and the navy was the first to leave due to heavy losses. Of the more than 1,000 naval soldiers, only more than 500 remained, a third of the total, most of whom were soldiers from Garp's ship.

However, the Whitebeard Pirates also lost nearly two hundred members, many of whom were seriously injured and had lost their fighting ability, requiring proper rest and recuperation.
