Marineford Becomes History

Fish-Man Island, Hard-Shell Tower, the residence of the Mermaid Princess Shirahoshi.

To avoid being targeted by Vander Decken IX, who possesses the Mark-Mark Fruit, White Star has been confined to this Hard-Shell Tower for many years.

This form of imprisonment left her with no friends and very few opportunities to interact with others.

Apart from her pet shark Megalo, White Star has very few people she can confide in.

This gentle, kind, and incredibly beautiful Mermaid Princess was full of curiosity about the outside world.

However, this seemingly fragile Mermaid Princess is actually a Mermaid Princess who appears only once every 800 years and can communicate with Sea Kings.

She is the queen of the Sea Kings, possessing immense power capable of saving countless lives or destroying the world. She is known as "Sea King Poseidon," one of the Three Ancient Weapons.

When White Star was very young, at the age of 6, she witnessed her mother being attacked. In her panic, she cried out loudly, which accidentally summoned the Sea Kings to the scene and rescued her mother.

That was the only time she had ever demonstrated her ability; since then, she has remained in this Hard-Shell Tower, with no opportunity and no chance to use it.

Not long ago, White Star heard a voice again.

"So hungry... so hungry... waaaaah..."

The pitiful sobbing sound entered White Star's mind, like a little child hiding in a corner and crying silently because he was hungry.

"Who are you?" White Star asked the voice curiously.

"I'm so hungry... I'm so hungry..."

The voice didn't answer her; it just kept crying and saying it was hungry.

Despite being trapped in the Hard-Shell Tower herself, the kind-hearted White Star still cares deeply about the other person.

She said, "Are you very hungry? I'll have Megalo bring you something to eat."

"Giggle!"

Megalo wagged its tail to acknowledge its presence.

And so, they gradually became friends. Two lonely people, who had never met before, became best friends who could talk about anything.

White Star learned the other person's name: Emperor Flower, and she was currently hiding in a trench at the bottom of the sea.

The Emperor Flower also learned about White Star's situation, that she was trapped in the Hard-Shell Tower on Fish-Man Island.

White Star has never seen the outside world, and Emperor Flower knows very little about the outside world either.

However, compared to Shirahoshi, Emperor Flower knows a little more and can always tell you things that White Star doesn't.

This made White Star very happy; besides Megalo, she now had someone new to talk to.

"Giggle!"

One day, White Star's pet Megalo brought an Image-Image Shell to the Hard-Shell Tower.

"What is this?" White Star didn't know what Megalo wanted to do with this.

"Gah gah!" Megalo gestured for White Star to open it.

White Star fiddled with the Image-Image Shell and finally opened it.

When I opened it, I happened to see the Fleet Admiral announcing the Navy's decision to execute Ace.

"Oh dear! Is that pirate a villain? He's actually going to be publicly executed!"

White Star was startled; being kind-hearted, she couldn't bear to watch any longer.

"White Star, White Star, what's wrong?"

The Emperor Flower's voice entered White Star's mind, asking why White Star was so startled.

White Star tells the Emperor Flower about the images she saw.

She watched the scene in the Image-Image Shell while talking to the Emperor Flower.

Sizzle!

The video suddenly cut off; this was Sengoku's order to stop the live broadcast. However, some people still managed to slip through the net, and the scene in front of White Star's eyes quickly returned to normal.

"Oh dear! There are other people here, including several children. Are they in danger?"

The scene White Star saw was exactly the moment Yuxian and his group arrived.

"Wow! That person is amazing! The flag in her hand blocked all the attacks!"

White Star kept recounting everything she saw to the Emperor Flower.

At first, Emperor Flower listened with great interest, as if it were a story, and she enjoyed the feeling of having friends to talk to.

But slowly, she began to feel that this scene was somewhat familiar, and many of the things White Star said began to overlap with the scenes in her memory.

"White Star, quickly describe those people, those newly appeared ones."

Emperor Flower eagerly asked White Star to depict Yuxian's appearance.

White Star naturally complied with her requests, and she carefully described Yuxian's journey step by step in the most detailed way possible.

"Awoo! Awoo awoo!"

Suddenly, the Emperor Flower howled like a wild beast. She would imitate monster roars when she was happy, and she was clearly very happy right now.

"White Star, White Star, I'm going to find them!"

White Star was startled and quickly said, "It's very dangerous there, are you really going?"

"Yes, yes, I want to be a lovely bride!" the Emperor Flower said without hesitation, her tone very eager, clearly unable to wait a moment longer.

She quickly cried out again, "Oh no, I don't know the way!"

The Emperor Flower had no idea where the Marineford Marine Headquarters was or where Marineford was. After arriving in this world, she had been hiding at the bottom of the sea, too afraid to come out.

If White Star hadn't heard her voice, she probably would have continued to cry secretly there.

"White Star, White Star, do you know where this is? Do you know the way?" The Emperor Flower could only turn to White Star for help at this moment.

White Star didn't actually know the location of Marineford, but she at least knew the general direction. She hesitated and said, "I've never been there, but I know a little bit of the general direction."

"Then take me there! I'll come find you right away!"

Without hesitation, Emperor Flower decided to ask White Star for directions. She knew about Mermaid Island where White Star lived, since White Star's pet Megalo often brought her food.

Upon hearing this, White Star immediately tried to stop the Emperor Flower. She knew the size of the Emperor Flower; Megalo had described it to her as having a body even larger than Sea Kings.

"You don't..."

Before White Star could finish speaking and before she could stop it, the entire Fish-Man Island was plunged into an apocalyptic tremor.

Fish-Man Island, located at the bottom of the sea, became shaky and precarious simply because of the Emperor Flower's slow movement.

The fish-men on the island, unaware of what was happening, scattered and fled in panic.

A gigantic hand appeared in the sky above Fish-Man Island, pressing down and blotting out the sun.

Once compacted, Fish-Man Island will cease to exist and vanish into thin air.

But the hand stopped in mid-air. She then inserted two fingers downwards, gently pinching up the Hard-Shell Tower where the White Star was located, and took it away.

Fishman Island was saved, but their Princess Shirahoshi was kidnapped, and no one knows what happened.

All these changes came so suddenly and disappeared so quickly, as if it were all a dream.

If it weren't for the chaotic scene on Fish-Man Island, one would really think it was just a nightmare.

Section 434, Chapter Fifteen: Marineford Becomes History

The Emperor Flower places its Hard-Shell Tower in the palm of its hand and calls to White Star.

"White Star, White Star, come out quickly and take me to Marineford."

Hearing the Emperor Flower's voice, White Star cautiously peeked out from the Hard-Shell Tower, and she was a little scared.

White Star, who has always stayed inside the Hard-Shell Tower and has never come out, is incredibly curious about the outside world, but is also somewhat afraid.

Whoosh!

A sniper shot came from afar; it was Vander Decken IX.

White Star quickly pulled her head back, and the sniper shot hit the door of the Hard-Shell Tower again, leaving a mark.

Without a second thought, the Emperor Flower slapped it across the face.

At this moment, anyone who tries to stop him from going to find Yuxian is his enemy and must die.

The enormous, mountain-like hand slapped on Vander Decken IX as easily as swatting a mosquito; it would be a miracle if he survived.

"Alright, White Star, the annoying flies are gone. Hurry up and come out, or it will be too late."

The Emperor Flower continued to urge White Star; she couldn't wait a moment longer, afraid that if she arrived late Yuxian would leave, and she had no desire to hide back in the seabed.

White Star came out with some doubt, and sure enough, no one sniped at her this time.

She jumped up excitedly and looked at the Emperor Flower, saying, "You're so big!"

White Star is a giant mermaid, a giant compared to ordinary people, but she appears tiny in front of the Emperor Flower.

The palm of Emperor Flower is large enough to hold her.

After White Star emerged, Emperor Flower placed her on its shoulder and casually tossed aside the Hard-Shell Tower.

"Let's hurry, you show me the way."

"Mmm!" White Star was very happy. She could finally see the outside world and excitedly pointed out the direction to the Emperor Flower.

Splash! Splash!

As the Emperor Flower moved, the surrounding seawater surged to both sides like a tsunami, and nearby islands suffered varying degrees of damage.

Kind-hearted White Star specifically instructed the Emperor Flower to bypass those islands, preventing Emperor Flower from getting too close and thus submerging all the islands.

On this day, along the Grand Line, many people saw a giant head appearing and disappearing on the sea surface, which became a strange tale among them.

In Marineford, Shanks finds himself in a difficult position, tormented by the children, while Yuxian watches the show from the sidelines.

Just as Shanks was wondering how to deal with the children in front of him, a voice came from afar.

"Ma——s——ter——!"

The sound was distant yet loud, and everyone in Marineford heard it.

Yuxian naturally heard it too, and his mind lit up. He quickly searched for the source of the sound.

However, what he saw was a tsunami coming, and a huge wave came into view.

The massive waves instantly submerged the entire Marineford in the sea.

Shanks is no longer in a difficult position, because no one has time to pay attention to him.

Sengoku no longer needs to worry, because Marineford is gone.

Devil Fruit users are the most miserable; they can't even save themselves when they encounter seawater.

Of course, it wouldn't be a problem for strong fighters like Aokiji and Kizaru.

Aokiji reacted swiftly, freezing all the giant waves that were approaching him and giving many people a chance to catch their breath.

Kizaru also quickly flew into the air, dodging the attacks of the waves.

Capable and powerful individuals have their own methods, while ordinary pirates and marines can only watch helplessly as they are submerged by the sea, frantically searching for something to hold onto in order to avoid being completely swept away by the tide.

With the help of the crowd, Yuxian barely managed to avoid being swept away, but he was still soaked to the bone.

Finally, after the tsunami subsided, the culprit was revealed.

A gigantic head appeared in the sky above Marineford.

The Emperor Flower looked down at Yuxian with a smile, "Master, I'm here, I'm here."

As it spoke, the Emperor Flower lowered its head, and like a dark cloud pressing down on the city, it knocked down all the buildings in Marineford.
