Ace's Fate

With all his internal organs burned beyond repair.

Even the finest doctors were powerless.

Of course.

If Trafalgar Law had been here, there might have been a sliver of hope. After all, his Op-Op Fruit, worth fifty Beli, was specifically meant for such difficult cases.

Unfortunately.

Trafalgar Law was not here!

At that moment.

Garp, whose body had been trembling nonstop, actually began to move. Gritting his teeth, his eyes bloodshot, he clenched his fists tightly and glared murderously at Sakazuki.

"Vice Admiral Garp!

"Are you trying to..."

Quite a few Marine soldiers were startled by the sight.

"Garp!"

Sengoku immediately saw through Garp's intentions.

He rushed forward in a single stride and, without another word, pressed one hand against Garp's head and slammed him heavily to the ground.

"What are you trying to do, Garp? Have you gone mad?" Sengoku snarled as he pinned Garp to the ground.

"Keep stopping me, Sengoku!"

"Otherwise, I won't be able to stop myself from killing Sakazuki!"

Garp said, trembling. He was absolutely right. Though he and Ace shared no blood relation, after all those years of caring for him, Garp's feelings for Ace had long surpassed blood ties.

What was more, it was not only Ace facing Sakazuki's killing intent now. His own biological grandson, Luffy, was as well!

Sengoku completely believed Garp when he said he would kill Sakazuki.

And Sengoku was not the only one.

There was someone else who recognized Garp's strength: Roya!

"If Sengoku hadn't stopped him."

"I really would have liked to see how Garp would beat Sakazuki!"

Roya said with a smile.

Actually.

The one truly holding Garp back was not Sengoku.

It was the word "Justice" that Garp bore on his back!

If Garp had not been a Marine, Sakazuki would definitely have died here
