This Isn't a Battle-It's Just Mowing Down the Grass!
Edward Teach glanced at Marco indifferently.
He served as the first division commander, ship's doctor, and "hidden second-in-command" of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Marco's strength is outstanding, even in the entire New World.
A side-by-side comparison of the "second-in-command" of the BIG MOM Pirates and the Beasts Pirates.
Marco's bounty is even higher than that of King the Wildfire and Charlotte Katakuri!
Not to mention, Marco also possesses an extremely powerful [Mythical Zoan - Mythical Zoan: Phoenix]!
But--
"Noisy."
Edward Teach uttered those two words softly.
High in the sky, a flash of lightning appeared.
Edward Teach vanished from his spot in an instant, moving with lightning speed to close in on the downward-facing Phoenix Marco.
His thick, sturdy right leg was raised high, and silver-white lightning wrapped and intertwined around it, turning it into a dazzling "silver thigh"!
Marco's bird-like face, enveloped in blue flames, was now directly illuminated by a flash of lightning.
At the same time, Marco's ever-widening pupils were also illuminated.
'Wow, that's fast!'
Marco instinctively raised his left hand, following his battle-hardened fighting instincts, and used his forearm to block in front of him.
Almost in the next instant.
Edward Teach's right leg came crashing down on Marco like a powerful axe.
Electric current propulsion, electric light kick!
It was only for a fleeting moment.
Edward Teach's right leg, enhanced with the extreme speed of the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit], landed on Marco's left forearm, the immense force causing the latter's expression to change drastically in an instant.
Click!
A crisp, cracking sound rang out.
Phoenix the Marco's left arm—or more accurately, the "bird wing" wreathed in burning blue flames—was kicked off by Edward Teach in a brutal scene.
Edward Teach's right leg, still brimming with power, continued its downward kick, cutting through everything in its path, and finally landing on Marco's chest.
Click--
Another series of cracking sounds, like firecrackers, rang out.
Marco's bones must have broken countless times at that moment.
With Edward Teach's current physical abilities, coupled with the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit]'s boost to attack and speed...
The reason his kick didn't kill Marco outright was entirely due to his high HP from the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix!
Even so.
Marco transformed into a bird with broken wings, plummeting rapidly from the sky until he crashed into the depths of the Sky Garden, creating a deep crater in the ground.
Boom!
A cloud of smoke and dust exploded into the sky.
Marco lay flat in the depths of the pit, coughing violently a few times.
However, thanks to the miraculous effects of the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix, his injuries healed rapidly.
Even with severe injuries like broken bones, the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix's blue flames—true name "Flame of Regeneration"—can quickly restore the body after burning it once.
"What a monster!"
Marco recalled the incredibly heavy force he had just felt, and his left arm was still trembling slightly.
"Even my father in his youth probably couldn't compare to 'Second Generation,' right?"
Shocking as it may be.
Marco quickly climbed out of the pit, gently waving his left hand a few times. The arm that had been broken by a kick was now completely healed.
The regenerative abilities of the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix are just that powerful!
But before Marco could fly out of the crater...
A bolt of lightning shot directly into the dust and mist.
Using the invisible electromagnetic radar of the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit], Edward Teach directly located Marco, transformed into lightning, and rushed over to find the Phoenix once again.
Upon seeing this, Marco was startled again.
He instinctively wanted to deploy a defensive posture.
But compared to Edward Teach's speed, Marco was just too slow, far too slow!
Edward Teach appeared beside Marco in a flash.
He raised his right leg again.
Once again, it unleashed the "Electric Current Propulsion · Electric Light Kick";
A quick, powerful kick struck Marco's body again.
Bang!
The Phoenix, which had just fallen from the sky like a meteorite, was kicked back into the sky by Edward Teach.
In mid-air, the silver-white arc of electricity, symbolizing the [Rumble-Rumble Fruit], collided with the blue flames, representing the [Mythical Zoan: Phoenix], creating a dazzling array of sparks, like fireworks exploding.
But hidden within this breathtakingly beautiful scene lies a danger that could instantly kill an ordinary person.
Marco, who was flying backwards into the sky, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Puff--"
The Mythical Zoan: Phoenix represents an incredibly powerful regenerative ability, granting the consumer near-immortality and tenacious vitality.
However, this does not mean that the Devil Fruit User of the [Mythical Zoan: Phoenix] is immune to injury!
Obviously.
Edward Teach's kick just now has seriously injured Marco again!
However.
Under the healing power of the "Flame of Regeneration," Marco's injuries recovered rapidly.
The terrifying injuries that would have killed an ordinary pirate on the spot were quickly healed by the "Flame of Regeneration" of the Mythical Zoan: Phoenix.
If Marco is given just a little more time, his injuries will be fully healed.
But Edward Teach was never merciful.
Rumble--
Another faint rumble of thunder sounded.
Edward Teach, who had just flashed into the dust and kicked Marco into the sky, transformed himself into lightning and soared into the sky once more.
Edward Teach followed the Phoenix's flight path, skillfully dodging the scalding "Phoenix blood," and once again arrived behind the Phoenix.
Marco caught a glimpse of Edward Teach's raised right leg out of the corner of his eye, and felt a chill run down his spine.
'No? Here we go again!?'
The thought had just entered Marco's mind.
Edward Teach's "Lightning Kick" landed on the Phoenix's body once again.
Bang!!
Edward Teach kicked Marco, then transformed into lightning, chasing after him and raising his leg again.
Bang bang bang--
Amidst the constant movement of silvery-white lightning.
The blue Phoenix, resembling a sandbag, flew back and forth in mid-air, with drops of blood falling from the sky onto the ground below.
The first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates was completely powerless against Edward Teach, and was nothing more than a punching bag to be played with.
This sight caused the Whitebeard Pirates members around them to twitch their eyelids.
Marco is the second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates.
He is also the "second strongest fighter" in the Whitebeard Pirates.
Edward Teach is a high-ranking officer in the Dawn Pirates.
At least within the Dawn Pirates, Edward Teach's status was inferior to that of the Red Dragon Emperor.
Both of them were high-ranking officers in the Emperor Pirates.
Even if the two have a bounty difference of several hundred million Beli.
But the difference shouldn't be this big, right?
The morale of the Whitebeard Pirates wavered slightly at this moment.
Fortunately, not every "high-ranking official" performs as poorly as Marco.
Flower Sword and Sand Crocodile were evenly matched Vista their fight.
On the other side, the performance of the other "Whitebeard" character was not too surprising.
Edward Weevil, who had unleashed the power of the Mythical Zoan -warashi no Mi (Yama-waro Fruit), was already much taller than a normal person, and at this moment he transformed into a small giant.
He wielded the massive naginata in his hand, imbuing the blade with the flame abilities granted by the [Yama-waro Fruit], and repeatedly slashed at the troublesome "bastard" in front of him.
After that close-up mockery...
Diamond Jozu did indeed lose focus for a moment during the battle.
However, the defensive capabilities of his [Glitter-Glitter Fruit] are indeed genuine.
Even though Edward Weevil's strength has increased considerably compared to before.
However, they still couldn't break through Diamond Jozu's surface defenses.
As time goes by.
Once Diamond Jozu had adapted to Edward Weevil's increased power, he was even able to find time to counterattack, his diamond-like body charging towards the "Mountain Child" in front of him like a cannonball.
However, Edward Weevil inherited Whitebeard's power from his youth, making him a force to be reckoned with.
After consuming the [Mythical Zoan: Yama-waro Fruit], Weevil's strength level also increased to some extent.
He couldn't break through Diamond Jozu's defenses.
But even Diamond Jozu couldn't defeat him.
For a time, the two were evenly matched.
Whitebeard shifted his gaze from Flower Sword Vista Diamond Jozu.
To be honest...
The three top officers of the Whitebeard Pirates did not perform very well.
Marco was completely used as a punching bag.
Vista the Flower Sword and Jozu the Diamond were also held back by their respective enemies.
And what about the other division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates?
Whitebeard surveyed the entire situation and felt a chill run down his spine.
With [Sakazuki] and [Karasuma] in his hands, Golden Lion II moved nimbly through the Whitebeard Pirates like a butterfly flitting among flowers, as if he were in an empty field.
No pirate could withstand even a single move from him.
Every time Golden Lion II. swung his sword, he took the life of a Whitebeard Pirates.
No pirate could force Golden Lion II. to unleash a second sword strike!
This is not a fight at all.
This is just like mowing the lawn!
It's not just Golden Lion II.
The other members of the Dawn Pirates were also rapidly reaping the lives of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Whitebeard had no idea where these monsters had come from.
But all he saw was his "sons" dying one by one at the hands of these pirates.
The only area on the battlefield where the fighting could be described as "evenly matched" was the Storm Pirates' side.
Compared to the members of the Dawn Pirates.
The members of the Storm Pirates are still too "young".
Girls like Nami, Robin, and Perona still haven't mastered [Haki].
Even though their respective Devil Fruit abilities are quite powerful.
However, their performance was not very good in such a large-scale war.
Fortunately Yamato was like a loyal dog, firmly guarding Nami and the others, checking for any mistakes they made.
Whitebeard observed Yamato from afar: the Oni Clan's long horns, the jet-black spiked club, and the rare Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit that allowed it to control ice...
Whitebeard almost thought he was seeing a young Kaido!
To be honest...
This ridiculously young Oni Clan girl is actually no less powerful than Beasts Kaido in his youth!
Another incredibly strong newcomer.
Where did the White Dragon Emperor gather so many powerful crew members?
Whitebeard couldn't understand.
But he's almost at the point where he can't keep up the situation!
This is not war at all.
This was almost a one-sided massacre!
First update.
A little earlier than yesterday.
There will be a second update, which will probably be very late.
