"Whitebeard is dead, surrender now!"
Akainu stood beside Whitebeard's corpse, shouting triumphantly.
Despite being covered in injuries and experiencing pain everywhere, he felt physically and mentally at ease.
He personally killed one of the Four Emperors, and that was Whitebeard, who was known as the World's Strongest Man.
Of course, Akainu knew that the title of "World's Strongest Man" was exaggerated and that Luo Wen was far less powerful than the Lord Raven he fought in the Sabaody Archipelago.
However, since Luo Wen never fought Whitebeard, the title of the World's Strongest Man is still considered to belong to Whitebeard in the eyes of the world.
He killed Whitebeard and naturally gained a share of glory.
This is the greatest honor the Navy has ever received since the beginning of the Great Pirate Era.
"Akainu Admiral Whitebeard; he is a hero of the Navy!"
Onigumo led the shouting.
He was equally proud because it was the Hawk Faction leader who killed Whitebeard.
As a staunch Hawk Faction, he naturally knew that this was the best opportunity to expand Akainu's prestige.
This moment of prestige can help Akainu Impact the position of Fleet Admiral.
"Akainu live Admiral Akainu!"
"Akainu live Admiral Akainu!"
"The navy is invincible, and the light of justice will ultimately shine upon the entire world!"
Then the entire navy became excited.
That's Whitebeard, the World's Strongest Man. His attack was like a natural disaster; even the aftershocks of the battle...
For such a terrifying pirate to die at the hands of Admiral Akainu, just how powerful Admiral Akainu be?
So what if they're one of the Four Emperors? If they dare to act recklessly at Marine Headquarters, they'll all be killed!
The sailors looked at the blood-soaked figure with eyes full of reverence.
They had three Admiral as powerful as these.
Tomorrow will be better, and all pirates will be captured and wiped out!
"My Pops is dead."
Marco and the other surviving squad leaders cried out in grief.
Their beloved Pops is dead, killed by Akainu.
Although they had expected this to happen, it still saddened them greatly when it actually occurred.
The Whitebeard man who had protected them had finally fallen.
"Red Dog!"
Marco, Jozu, Vista, and the rest of the Whitebeard Pirates who were still alive glared angrily at Akainu, wanting to devour him alive.
They would never forgive the person who killed their Pops.
"Let's fight them!"
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates revealed their true, ferocious nature.
Unfortunately, they can no longer afford to fight.
Marco was pinned to the ground by Kizaru, his stamina exhausted from the previous battle.
The other squad leaders were all facing attacks from several equally skilled opponents, and had no power to fight back.
Jozu and Vista tried to force their way out of the fight with Hawkeye, but were stopped by Aokiji in the blink of an eye.
Even if they wanted to die together, they didn't have the ability.
One by one, the remaining pirates died under the Navy's encirclement and suppression.
The Whitebeard Pirates have been officially wiped out!
At this moment, the pirates watching the live broadcast around the world were silent, their hearts filled with fear and sorrow.
The Whitebeard Pirates were a powerful pirate crew that had dominated the seas since the time of Roger.
It witnessed the rise of the Great Pirate Era and is recognized as the king by all pirates. Countless people have tried to challenge Whitebeard's position, but no one has ever succeeded.
Whitebeard, a legendary pirate who never suffered a defeat in his life and was known as the World's Strongest Man, actually died at the hands of Marine Admiral.
Along with the mighty fleet of 50,000 men that once dominated the New World, it too vanished into thin air today.
"Another Four Emperors defeated, is the Great Pirate Era coming to an end?"
Countless pirates felt lost.
First, Godslayer Luo Wen crushed the Beasts Pirates in a single day, then the Marine Headquarters surrounded and killed the Whitebeard Pirates.
Within a month, two of the Four Emperors fell from grace.
The once high and mighty emperor of the sea suddenly became vulnerable.
But the pirates knew perfectly well that it wasn't that the Four Emperors had become weaker.
Even with his frail, Whitebeard, he still displayed a devastating power during the live stream.
That is the domain of the Four Emperors, and no one below the Four Emperors and the Admiral can stop them.
The reason why the two heroes Four Emperors fell so quickly was simply because their opponents were too strong.
On one side is the World Government, which has stood for eight hundred years, and on the other side is Godslayer has risen like Inazuma.
Both sides are enormous forces far surpassing the Four Emperors.
They are even more powerful and domineering than the Four Emperors who control their own territories; they are the true forces vying for world sovereignty.
Perhaps the Great Pirate Era has ended, and what follows is an era of competition between these two factions.
"This is the power of the World Government; it's truly terrifying." Monkey D. Dragon watched the scene on television, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. "My Revolutionary Army still needs to develop further; we can't afford to go toe-to-toe with the World Government."
Akainu alone could wear down Whitebeard. Aokiji and Kizaru were also dealing with the division commanders, and Sengoku hadn't even made a move.
With the navy so powerful, his Revolutionary Army is no match for them.
The World Government, along with the Cipher Pol and other forces, is even more formidable.
"Chief, wipe your sweat."
Sabo handed him a tissue.
He was used to Monkey D. Dragon sweating.
Their leader is powerful, but the amount of sweat is excessive.
"Oh, thank you."
Monkey D. Dragon naturally took it and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Boss, that pirate with the Straw Hat and that pirate who's about to be executed look familiar."
Sabo asked, somewhat puzzled.
Looking at their predicament, he felt a pang of pain in his heart.
This was the first time he had felt this way since losing his memory.
"Those two are your former friends." Monkey D. Dragon looked at Luffy, who was being held between Garp's legs, with some concern. "The one wearing the Straw Hat is my son."
He hadn't met Ace many times, so he didn't have any particular feelings for Ace.
But his own son, Luffy over there, and it looked very dangerous.
Although he hadn't really taken care of him since he was little, he was still his son, so he was a little worried.
"My former friend, your son?" Sabo asked in surprise, "Should we go and rescue them?"
"No, the Revolutionary Army is not strong enough," Monkey D. Dragon refused. "We must be patient now and not act rashly."
"Yes, Chief."
Sabo answered somewhat sullenly.
He suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, Chief, we can be patient, but what if our allies make a move?"
He thought of Luo Wen's Neo Marines; it seemed he hadn't been in contact with him since his childhood friend, Koala, left.
No, this isn't the time to think about that.
The Neo Marines, led by that Godslayer, have always been aggressive and impulsive, much more so than the Revolutionary Army, seemingly intent on directly confronting the World Government.
With his drive and energy, it's not surprising that Luo Wen would join in on this fun.
"Luo Wen probably won't make a move," Monkey D. Dragon said confidently. "He's a smart man like me; he won't act impulsively."
Just then, Ryu's Den Den Mushi (Transponder Snail) rang.
"I am Ivankov. Luo Wen rescued me during his attack on Impel Down, and he has already headed to Marine Headquarters."
"Hiss!"
Long gasped, shocked and puzzled.
Why can't we be patient like him, and wait until we're strong enough before attacking the World Government?
