Vast amounts of water vapor enveloped this area of the sea.
Flames surged forth from Ace's body once more as he prepared to attack again, but Whitebeard stopped him with a reach of his hand.
" Ace, don't be impulsive. This guy is beyond your capabilities right now. However, if I were to join the fight, things should be a little better."
As the somber voice faded, the Whitebeard, carrying his naginata, stepped out from the crowd.
Under other circumstances, he would absolutely not want to confront the Five Elders head-on.
However, Ace is the successor he values most, and if he doesn't express his opinion at this time, it might disappoint Ace.
Seeing the Whitebeard emerge from the crowd, the World Government soldiers on the warship tensed up instantly.
This man is hailed as standing at the pinnacle of his era; his reputation alone is enough to instill fear in men.
"Heh, Whitebeard, if you were twenty years younger, I might really be afraid of you. Unfortunately, now you're not only old, but your body is also completely out of shape."
Poseidon gave a cold laugh.
"However, this time, I'm only here to complete the Five Elders ' mission. Now that that brat is dead, I don't need to stay here."
"If anyone's to blame, it's that brat. He was too arrogant, daring to confront the Five Elders head-on. He was simply overestimating himself."
After saying this, Poseidon turned and prepared to leave.
Ace angrily prepared to attack again, but was once again stopped by Whitebeard.
If Bai Yu were still alive, Whitebeard, after weighing the pros and cons, would have tried to break through and send Ace to provide some support.
However, now that Bai Yu has been killed, continuing to fight such a terrifying opponent would be far too unrealistic.
Ace's expression froze. He knew what Whitebeard meant, and at the same time, he looked at Marco and the others beside him and shook his head in agreement.
He knew perfectly well that this battle was probably truly over.
Bai Yu's death, the Five Elders ' grudge, could only be watched helplessly as it slipped away before their eyes.
However, this slight sense of resentment quickly welled up in her heart.
A series of urgent Den Den Mushi calls echoed throughout the entire ship's deck and the sea.
Ten, a hundred, a thousand!
Anyone carrying Den Den Mushi ) is like a concerto, whether they're pirates or the World Government.
Before anyone could react, a series of urgent the Roar rang out.
"Major event, absolutely Big News Morgans! The Marine Fourth Admiral War Demon Bai Yu, who was rumored to have been killed by the Five Elders Nusjuro in the Holy Land Mary Geoise, has actually appeared at Marineford, the Marine Headquarters."
"If the dead are brought back to life, then where are the Five Elders Nusjuro?"
"Could it be that the person killed in this battle was not the War Demon Bai Yu, but someone else entirely?"
Big News Morgans ' voice spread like wildfire through the Den Den Mushi).
Upon receiving this firsthand news, everyone immediately shared it.
At that moment, it felt like a bolt from the blue, and my mind was reeling.
Without the preceding news as a prelude, they would never have been so shocked by Bai Yu's appearance.
However, Bai Yu's resurrection has shrouded the whole affair in mystery, making it seem elusive and unpredictable.
"Impossible, this must be a false alarm!"
Poseidon's expression changed drastically.
It can be said that even Rosa and others are no exception at this critical juncture.
Unfortunately, before they could react, the live broadcast of the Den Den Mushi was already being projected.
Everyone's eyes, no matter where they were, were fixed on the live broadcast screen. They were eager to know if this Big News Morgans was true.
Why did Bai Yu, who was supposed to be dead, come back to life?
Most importantly, what is the situation of the Nusjuro who went to ambush Bai Yu?
Everyone's heart clenched instantly.
As they got a clearer view, the first figures they saw, besides Big News Morgans ' obese body, were another figure drinking alone, who had boarded the Marine Headquarters dock.
The naval soldiers stationed along the route immediately tensed up.
Looking at this figure whom they regarded as a hero and an object of worship, they thought of cheering.
Unfortunately, the thought of the news from Holy Land Mary Geo, about the results of the Five Elders' trial just half an hour earlier, left them speechless.
" Admiral Bai Yu!"
Among the crowd, Vice Admiral Momonga's expression changed slightly, but he still couldn't help but step out from the crowd.
"We just received news that you had perished, and we were heartbroken for quite some time. But we never expected that you would actually come back alive."
"However, orders have been issued from within the Holy Land Mary Geoise to reclaim your identity, Admiral Bai Yu."
"We're not far from Holy Land Mary Geoise. Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Mr. Garp are still a dozen nautical miles away, confronting the Five Elders. Admiral Bai Yu, you'd better leave quickly, in case the Five Elders try something again."
As soon as E Chang finished speaking, everyone in the room changed their expressions.
They knew perfectly well that Bai Yu's appearance was being broadcast live by Big News Morgans.
At this critical juncture, saying such things would be considered suicidal in the eyes of the Five Elders.
" Vice Admiral Momonga, you're courting death! The man before you is the one who committed atrocities against His Highness the Celestial Dragons in Holy Land Mary Geoise. Not only have you failed to capture him, but you're also giving him advice. If this gets back, you'll be guilty of a serious crime."
"I'm from CP0. I'm giving you a chance to atone. Quickly gather your men and take him down."
On the naval dock, a CP0 agent who had been hiding there suddenly appeared.
The faces of the naval soldiers changed drastically, and they hurriedly looked towards Vice Admiral Momonga.
They desperately wanted to know whether, faced with the threat of CP0, Vice Admiral Momonga would truly wield the sword against their idol.
"I apologize, Mr. CP0, it was my men who caused you trouble."
A deep voice suddenly rang out.
The next moment, before anyone could react, a scorching wave of air swept down from the sky.
Soon, Akainu, his entire body covered in molten Akainu, appeared on the plaza.
The sudden turn of events immediately caused everyone's expression to change drastically, even Vice Admiral Momonga.
Everyone knows that within the Marine Headquarters, the relationship between Bai Yu and Akainu has always been extremely hostile.
Having previously held a position within the Navy, Akainu's attacks might have been somewhat more restrained.
However, Bai Yu has now been stripped of his Admiral status by the Five Elders, and he even killed Celestial Dragons in public in Holy Land Mary Geoise.
The positions of both sides have completely changed.
Given this premise, not only CP0, but everyone else was eager to know how Akainu would react.
"You're back!"
