[Charlotte Perospero: What are you looking at? Could it be this move isn't over yet?]
[Perona: Lord Moria, look at the sea! A tsunami, a tsunami is coming!]
What!
Everyone's gaze turned back to the screen, where the scene had already undergone a dramatic change.
〖The sea began to shake violently, accompanied by loud rumbling noises.
Starting from Marine Headquarters, the surrounding sea waves churned and rolled, rising higher and higher until they reached an unimaginable height.
Hundreds of meters high tsunamis rushed towards Marine Headquarters, threatening to submerge it at any moment. 〗
[Morgans: As expected, this is Whitebeard's true power. He can actually cause a tsunami.]
[Big Mom Charlotte Linlin: Mamamama, Newgate, you're still this strong.]
[Diamond Jozu: Hmph, see Pops' power now?]
[Urouge: So this is a Yonko? An unimaginable power.]
[Eustass Kid: Yonko... I will definitely defeat them in the future.]
[Kaido of the Beasts: Urororororo, kid, you've got plenty of nerve.]
[Wang Zhi: Well done, Newgate! Just drown the Marines like that!]
[Golden Lion Shiki: Zehahahaha, that's right!]
[Marine 1: How could this be? Is Marine Headquarters going to be destroyed just like this?]
[Marine 2: Look! That's...!]
Everyone looked.
〖Just as the tsunami was about to crash down, Aokiji leaped up violently, charging straight towards the tsunami.
"Ice Age!"
He spread his arms and used his Ice-Ice Fruit power, instantly freezing the tsunami solid and stopping its descent.
Immediately after, Aokiji swiftly attacked Whitebeard,
"Ice Block: Partisan!"
Whitebeard merely scoffed and threw a punch, shattering Aokiji's ice spears.
But Whitebeard's attack didn't stop there.
After his spears broke, Aokiji's ice body also began to crack and fall.
However, he reappeared moments later and directly used his Devil Fruit power to freeze the entire bay solid.
With that, the war officially began.
The Whitebeard Pirates' division commanders led their subordinates in the charge, while the Marine elite vice admirals moved to intercept them.
The battle was extremely fierce.〗
[Civilian 1: Although the Yonko's power is immense, the Marine Admirals' abilities are nothing to scoff at either.]
[Marine 3: Of course! That's Admiral Aokiji, one of the Marine Headquarters' three great powers!]
[Civilian 2: Truly worthy of an Admiral, instantly freezing such a terrifying tsunami.]
[Marine 4: And it's not just Admiral Aokiji participating in this war.]
[Marine 5: That's right. In this war, the Marines not only have the three Admirals, but also Fleet Admiral Sengoku and the Marine Hero, Vice Admiral Garp. The Whitebeard Pirates are no match for us.]
[Marine 6: Well said! We will definitely defeat the Whitebeard Pirates! The Marines will be victorious! Justice will prevail!]
[Diamond Jozu: Hey, don't get too cocky. We, the Whitebeard Pirates, are not as weak as you imagine. Just you wait and see.]
[Akainu Sakazuki: So what if it's the Whitebeard Pirates? So what if he's a Yonko? You will soon perish along with the world's most evil bloodline.]
[Marco the Phoenix: Then let's wait and see.]
At this moment, in the video playing on the sky screen, the battle between the Marines and the Whitebeard Pirates was reaching a fever pitch.
However, the appearance of one man shocked everyone.
This man was the world's greatest swordsman, Hawk-Eyes Mihawk.
〖Looking at Whitebeard before him, Hawk-Eyes slowly drew his Supreme Grade Blade, Yoru.
Doflamingo, watching nearby, laughed:
"Fufufufu, how surprising that you would be the first to make a move."
"I merely wish to see the true distance between him and myself,"
Mihawk said calmly, then swung his sword, delivering a direct slash towards Whitebeard, who stood at the bow of the Moby Dick.
As his move was unleashed, the Supreme Grade Blade Yoru began to emit a green light.
An immensely powerful sword intent enveloped the entire battlefield, stunning countless people.
This slash crossed nearly half the battlefield, heading straight for Whitebeard.
Anyone near its path was struck down.
Yet, facing this incredibly powerful attack, Whitebeard's expression remained completely calm.
Even as the slash was about to land, he made no move to counter it.
Just as the slash was about to cut the Moby Dick in two, a figure suddenly appeared and directly grabbed hold of the attack.
The newcomer was none other than the commander of the Whitebeard Pirates' Third Division, Diamond Jozu, known as the "The Toughest Man in the World".
He effortlessly sent Mihawk's slash flying skyward, without a single scratch left on his body. 〗
[Pirate 1: I never thought that lone wolf Hawk-Eyes would also participate in this war.]
[Pirate 2: Yeah, when he appeared in the initial footage, I thought I was seeing things.]
[Pirate 3: What an incredible slash. They say many people are so terrified upon seeing him they can't even move, let alone fight back.]
[Red-Haired Shanks: Mihawk, you're still such a lone wolf. You probably only agreed to join because you wanted to fight Whitebeard, right?]
[Hawk-Eyes Mihawk: Hn. Though my attack was blocked.]
[Civilian 1: But who was that who blocked the slash? He actually stopped the World's Greatest Swordsman's attack. I thought he was an idiot at first, using his body to block it.]
[Whitebeard Pirates 3rd Division Member: You're the idiot! That's our commander, Diamond Jozu! A user of the Shining Fruit, The Toughest Man in the World ]
[Civilian 2: Wow, shiny diamonds... I wish I could chip off a piece.]
[Pirate 4: To be honest, I kind of want to too.]
[Diamond Jozu: If you want some, come and get it! Hahahaha!]
At this point, the video camera shifted away from Hawk-Eyes to another major Marine combatant.
〖Admiral Kizaru stood up, looking directly at Whitebeard's position.
"Oh~ The Whitebeard Pirates are just too scary. Each and every one is like a monster. In that case, I guess we'll have to take out the boss first."
After speaking, his body turned into countless points of light, his radiance filling the entire screen.
In the next instant, as the light faded, Kizaru had already appeared directly above Whitebeard.
"Yasakani no Magatama!"
As Kizaru attacked, countless points of light rained down onto Whitebeard below.
Yet, Whitebeard remained as before, not evading, simply waiting calmly for the attack to land.
At that moment, a mass of blue flames shot out.
Marco the Phoenix, commander of the Whitebeard Pirates' First Division, directly intercepted Kizaru's attack.
"No way I'm letting you hurt Pops!"
Transformed into his phoenix form, he charged straight at Kizaru, kicking him away with a single blow.〗
