The battle lasted for half a day, and the navy finally couldn't hold out any longer.
Seeing the navy being slaughtered so quickly, Sengoku, who had initially thought he could repel the enemy, finally changed his expression and couldn't help but roar.
Meanwhile, Sakazuki, Kuzan, and Borsalino unleashed their full power, continuously blasting out Logia abilities.
The two sides were quickly separated, and everyone except Whitebeard Newgate and Mihawk, who were still torturing Blackbeard, stopped.
Seeing the naval officers falling one by one, Fleet Admiral Sengoku's heart was bleeding. These were all the navy's talents, and so many had been killed in such a short time.
If possible, he would rather have tens of thousands of soldiers die than have so many officers and colonels die; that would be jeopardizing the navy!
The Fleet Admiral Sengoku could almost foresee that the future navy would face immense difficulties, and might even experience a generational gap.
"Stop fighting, all of you! We admit defeat in this war!"
(The deceased Koby:...)
He spoke these words almost word by word, and as soon as he finished speaking, the Fleet Admiral Sengoku seemed to have aged considerably, and his whole being appeared incredibly weathered.
"Heh heh heh, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, now that you've started this war, its end is not something you can control. At the very least, when it ends is up to us!"
At that moment, a cold voice rang out. It was Tesoro who was carrying out the plan.
The Fleet Admiral Sengoku's pupils contracted, and he instantly understood what the other party meant, but he still asked the question that had been bothering him.
"I want to know, what price did that old man Whitebeard Newgate pay to invite so many powerful figures? I bet all the famous powerhouses in the New World have joined forces!"
"I know about the Abyss Chamber of Commerce, and everyone knows Thunder God Enel's identity. As for the others, who are they? And Hancock, Jinbe, why did you rebel as well!"
The Fleet Admiral Sengoku was filled with confusion, especially when he saw that although many of the enemy's hundred or so men were seriously injured, not a single one of them had died.
Just thinking about it is terrifying. What kind of force could gather so many powerful individuals? What conditions did Whitebeard Newgate offer?!
That's right. Even now, Sengoku still believes that Whitebeard Newgate paid a huge price to invite so many powerful people, and he hasn't considered Lin Yuan at all.
According to his thinking, if it was Lin Yuan's conspiracy, then Lin Yuan would definitely take action this time, and the entire Marine Headquarters might even be wiped out.
However, although these people were ruthless and killed many marines, the number of deaths was much less than that of the 100,000 marines, and even less than the number of people killed by Thunder God's single strike.
"Oh, a dignified Fleet Admiral? No need to ask, we won't tell you. You should be glad your brother wasn't interested in coming, otherwise how many of you do you think would still be alive?"
Fleet Admiral Sengoku paused, Sakazuki, Kuzan, and Borsalino's expressions also darkened. Having witnessed Lin Yuan's strength, they inexplicably felt a sense of relief.
" Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I'm sorry, but I'm announcing my withdrawal from the Shichibukai and officially leaving Fish-Man Island. As for why, you should know!"
Jinbe, representing the Shichibukai, also spoke up, withdrawing from the Shichibukai and Fish-Man Island, taking all the blame.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku was dumbfounded. He glanced at Vice Admiral Tsuru not far away and saw her shake her head. He was completely bewildered.
What do you mean they know? He knows nothing at all. Besides, how could the Shichibukai be so strong? There are three Admiral-level powerhouses among them, and the others are stronger than I imagined.
At this moment, Fleet Admiral Sengoku felt like vomiting blood. He hadn't cared much about the Shichibukai, who were almost the key to turning the tide of the war, and he knew nothing about them.
"Could it be that the Five Elders ' intention to abolish the Shichibukai has been leaked? Or is it more than just a thought?"
Just as the Fleet Admiral Sengoku was completely dumbfounded, a voice suddenly rang out.
"Boom..."
Blackbeard, who needed to regenerate, finally couldn't hold on any longer and was caught off guard by Whitebeard Newgate, who once again Conqueror's Haki Coating attack on his chest.
"Wow..."
He could no longer hold on, and couldn't even maintain his Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit power. He was directly forced back to his original form, covered in blood and looking extremely miserable.
" Pops, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
Lying on the ground, Blackbeard kept begging for mercy, showing none of his initial arrogance.
If his hands and feet hadn't been bent into irregular shapes and prevented him from getting up, he probably would be kneeling down and apologizing right now.
It wasn't that Whitebeard Newgate was cruel and wanted to torture this guy, but rather that the other's regenerative ability was truly terrifying. He and Mihawk watched for most of the day, but they still couldn't completely injure him.
If it weren't for the fact that rebirth requires a lot of physical strength, he probably wouldn't have been able to do anything to Blackbeard for a while. The moment the other party regained his human form, he shattered all the bones in his body with a single punch.
"Hmph, I never thought you were this kind of person. I still prefer your defiant attitude from earlier. Teach, I told you, I will never forgive you!"
"Clang..."
With a flash of light, the Supreme Great Grade Sword Murakumogiri severed Blackbeard's neck, sending his head flying and blood splattering everywhere.
Whitebeard Newgate, who had just killed Blackbeard, wore a look of sadness on his face before instantly regaining his composure.
He turned to look at Ace, who was not far away, and asked.
" Ace, are you alright?!"
Ace's gaze had been fixed on Whitebeard Newgate the whole time; he'd missed him terribly after not seeing him for so many days.
"I'm fine, Pops. That guy's finally dead!"
"Hahaha, yes, Pops avenged you."
After speaking, Whitebeard Newgate looked at Sengoku and the others, then at his companion in his hands.
" Sengoku, I've come in person this time, but it seems your plans are going to fall through."
A bitter look flashed across the face of the Fleet Admiral Sengoku. No one had expected that his mighty army of 100,000 would be defeated so thoroughly.
" Newgate, I didn't expect you to have gathered so many powerful individuals. The price you paid must have been high. Tell me, how can we end this war?"
A smile flickered across Whitebeard Newgate's face. He hadn't expected things to go so smoothly. If he had brought his sons, they would probably all have perished here.
At the same time, he was once again grateful to have met Lin Yuan; that kid was truly amazing.
"Hahaha, Sengoku, you don't need to worry about what price I paid. You lost this war, do you admit it or not!"
A flash of anger crossed the face of the Fleet Admiral Sengoku, but seeing the dejected sailors behind him, he felt utterly hopeless.
Just as he was about to speak, a Haki voice suddenly rang out.
"Please stop, everyone! I'm here to stop this war. Please give me some face."
"If anyone wants to continue, then my Red Hair Pirates will become your opponents!"
At the edge of the plaza, a Red-Haired, one-armed man, radiating terrifying Conqueror's Haki, was walking towards them, accompanied by a group of equally powerful companions.
Before the people even arrived, their voices had already resounded throughout the entire plaza. The newcomers were none other than Red-Haired Shanks, one of the Five Emperors of the New World, and his crew.
Lin Yuan, now atop the Flame Clouds, smiled broadly, while Bullet and Redfield stared at them as if they were complete idiots.
" The Red Hair Pirates, Shanks, one of the Five Emperors... Is this guy an idiot? Doesn't he even know where he is, how many powerful figures are here? He thinks he can outmaneuver everyone?"
Bullet made a blunt remark, his face showing a gloating and disdainful expression. Even if everyone in the crew below was injured, they wouldn't be able to stop a Yonko-level pirate crew.
Just as he had expected, Red-Haired Shanks and his men approached, intending to speak again and ask for their consideration,
Both the Navy and Whitebeard Newgate's group, a dozen or so powerful figures at the level of Emperors, turned to look at them at the same time.
"Holy shit..."
