"Get out of the way!" Ryan noticed it, and naturally, Whitebeard noticed it as well. He hurriedly shouted at the Whitebeard Pirates.
Marco also stopped fighting Akainu. Entering Phoenix Form, he took Akainu's blow head-on. Spreading his Phoenix wings, he blocked the light bullets headed for the Whitebeard Pirates and charged toward Kizaru like a warrior.

But Marco alone could not block the barrage of light bullets. Many still struck members of the Whitebeard Pirates.
