Rayleigh and Gaban, these two legends from the old era, were covered in blood, leaning on their weapons and panting. Their eyes showed relief and exhaustion and deep expectations for Allen.
Yamato's Glazed Sword was propped up on the ground, gasping for air, but the eyes looking at Allen were as bright as stars, full of pure admiration and trust.
Hancock Even in this tragic environment, Empress's peerless appearance is still eye-catching, but it is stained with blood and dust.
She looked at Allen, her cheeks flushed, and she kept shouting in her heart, "Husband Lord is so handsome even when he appears! I... I'm going to faint!"
The body shook slightly and was supported by Nana next to him.
Ace and Sabo stood back to back, equally scarred, but their eyes looking at Allen were full of excitement and brotherly trust.
The green cloak of leader Revolutionary Army was in tatters, and his aura was somewhat disordered, but his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle, staring at Allen, waiting for the answer that would determine the fate of the world.
Strongest Man in the World was leaning on Naginata, his chest heaving violently, but his eyes were still majestic, looking at Allen with questioning.
Shanks has a signature gentle smile on his face, and deep in his eyes is the calmness and recognition of Allen.
Kaido was in the most embarrassing state. His huge body was covered with deep visible scars, one of Dragon Horns was broken, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but the burning Fighting Spirit in his eyes was not extinguished, and he stared at Allen while breathing heavily.
When Allen's eyes met Bullet's, the latter grinned.
Allen took a deep breath of the air mixed with the smell of blood and burnt food. The relaxation on Allen's face disappeared instantly, replaced by an extreme heaviness, fatigue, and even a hint of... sadness.
He looked around, his eyes scanning every familiar face, and finally raised his hand slowly. His voice was not loud, but it clearly spread throughout the silent battlefield, with a solemnity that declared the final judgment, "Everyone!" The voice was slightly hoarse and full of power.
"The darkness that has lasted... for too long... is finally over!"
There was a pause to let the heavy atmosphere ferment.
"We paid an... unimaginable price..."
Allen's eyes swept over the corpses on the ground, his expression painful.
"But!" The voice suddenly rose to a high pitch, with a decisiveness that cut off everything.
"The shadow that has occupied Empty Throne for eight hundred years... the mastermind behind World Government... the being named Imu..."
Allen paused again, the whole place was dead silent, even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
"It has been ended by my... Gol·D·Allen... personal hands..."
The last few words are decisive and impactful!
In conjunction with clenching his fists just right, it felt as if he had just experienced an epic battle.
Allen cheered inwardly. "Perfect! Oscar owes me ten statuettes! Such a sense of tragedy and heroism! I almost believe it myself!"
The expressions on the faces of the navy's top brass, headed by Steel Bone Fleet Admiral Kong, Akainu Sakazuki Fleet Admiral, and Kizaru Borsalino Admiral, instantly froze.
The joy of victory? It doesn't exist.
The depression of defeat? It's out of the question.
It is a kind of confusion and sluggishness in which the foundation of faith has been uprooted and the soul has been completely hollowed out.
The source and symbol of "Absolute Justice" that they fought for, sacrificed for, and implemented throughout their lives... is gone?
Ended by this young brat in front of me?
Sakazuki's inner world is experiencing a magnitude 12 earthquake and tsunami.
"Imu... is dead? Killed by... a brat? Empty Throne... is empty? Then my justice...Magma, which I have been burning all my life... what are you guarding? What order are you maintaining?!"
The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous it became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt a huge anger and despair at being fooled by the world.
The blood surged crazily, and his face turned from livid to purple.
"Pfft--!!!"
A mouthful of hot, Sulfur-smelling Magma blood spurted out from his mouth like a fountain, spraying out more than three meters high, creating a dazzling blood rainbow under the gray sky.
His huge body shook violently for a few times, and the light in his eyes was completely extinguished, full of unwillingness and confusion. His last words rolled in his throat, and finally he squeezed out only a few vague syllables: "... work... salary...", and then like a lava statue that lost its support, he fell to the ground and died without closing his eyes.
"Sakazuki Fleet Admiral!!!"
Aramaki let out a heartbreaking scream, like an abandoned cub.
He regards Akainu as a beacon and idol of Absolute Justice.
"A world without you! Without your justice! What is the meaning of existence?! Ahhhh--!!!"
The extreme grief and complete collapse of his faith triggered a violent backlash in his Forest-Forest Fruit Ability.
The Life Force in his body was flowing away like crazy, his skin quickly lost its luster, became dry and gray, and his hair withered like withered grass.
Under the horrified gaze of everyone, the powerful Marine Admiral's body quickly shrank and became lignified, eventually turning into a sapling that was only half a man tall, with a wilted head and a drooping head, and withered and yellow leaves.
A gust of wind blew by, and the leaves rustled, as if they were whining.
A passing Revolutionary Army soldier was busy carrying the wounded and did not pay attention to his feet. He stepped firmly on the "Green Bull seedling" with a "snap" sound... The sapling was completely flattened and stained with soil.
The soldier glanced down and muttered, "Tsk, why are there weeds blocking the road in this wretched place?"
Then he kicked away the dead branches and leaves and continued working.
"Gu la la la la...!" Whitebeard's heroic laughter broke the dead silence, but it also carried a hint of exhaustion and sadness.
He looked around at his scarred sons. Marco, Jozu, Vista, etc. were still standing, but some of them had fallen forever.
"It's over... sons! Take our families... alive and... gone! Go home! Have the biggest... banquet! Celebrate the new life... and... bid farewell to our brothers!"
The tragic and heroic variation of "Rumbel of Wine" seems to ring in everyone's heart.
The remaining Whitebeard Pirates members silently collected the bodies of their companions, supported the wounded, and under the leadership of Father, walked away from this sad place with heavy steps.
"Uh-huh-huh... it's such a... pleasant fight!"
Kaido stood up unsteadily, the wounds on his body were still bleeding, but he didn't care.
"Jin! Queen! Jack! Those who are not dead, get up! Let's go! Go back to Onigashima! Open the wine cellar! Drink him for three days and three nights!"
He suddenly transformed into a huge Azure Dragon Form, soared into the sky, bringing up a gust of wind.
However, when the huge dragon tail was swinging, there was a "boom" and it accidentally hit the only remaining half of the Mary Geoise high wall next to it... The already shaky wall collapsed instantly, causing rubble to fly.
The Revolutionary Army soldiers below were scurrying around, shouting, "Kaido, you bastard! Did you do the demolition?!"
