Shinji summoned the System.
Two blue beams of light descended from above, enveloping Whitebeard and Might Guy.
In an instant, shattered bones reformed, torn flesh healed, and exhausted bodies were restored. Both men rose to their feet as if the battle had never happened.
"…Did I lose?" Whitebeard murmured, the terror of that final kick still lingering in his mind.
Before either of them could reflect further, space twisted—and they vanished, each returned to their own world.
Pirate World — The Moby Dick
"POPS!"
Marco and the others rushed forward, surrounding Whitebeard the moment he appeared. Tears streamed freely as they grabbed him, checking him from head to toe.
Victory no longer mattered.
Defeat no longer mattered.
As long as Pops was alive—that was enough.
Whitebeard exhaled slowly.
"To think… even after giving everything I had, I still lost."
"It's fine, Pops," Jozu said firmly. "We'll rescue Ace with our own strength."
"And Pops," Marco added quickly, eyes lighting up,"You got second place. That means you still get a reward!"
Naruto World
News of Might Guy's victory spread like wildfire.
From the Five Kage to ordinary villagers, the entire world erupted in celebration.
Yet beneath the cheers, unease spread among the other villages.
If Konoha gained another overwhelming advantage…the balance of power would shatter.
Nagato and Konan watched silently.
Even Madara waited impatiently.
What kind of reward… could create a monster stronger than the Eight Gates?
Obito felt a chill run down his spine.
Please… don't let this ruin my plan.
System Announcement
"Ding. Congratulations to Might Guy."
"Reward granted: Injury-Free Twenty-Times Kaioken."
Silence.
Then—
Shock.
"Twenty… times?""What is Kaioken?""That's not a technique from our world!"
Dragon Ball World
Goku frowned in disbelief.
"That's… my move."
Kaioken—taught to him by King Kai.
A technique that multiplies strength, speed, and defense instantly.
When he fought Frieza, Kaioken had pushed him from three million to sixty million power.
And unlike the Eight Gates—
It did not kill the user.
If Might Guy combined Seventh Gate + Twenty-Times Kaioken…
That boost would rival—or exceed—the Gate of Death, without fatal consequences.
At that point, a single punch could erase a country.
Even Six Paths–level opponents wouldn't last long.
Shinji activated the camera and calmly explained the technique.
The entire multiverse exploded.
Other Worlds React
Baki WorldMusashi stared in disbelief."The Eight Gates were already absurd… add this, and he could kill Whitebeard with one palm."
Seven Deadly Sins WorldEscanor spoke solemnly."With power like that… Might Guy would dominate his world."
Pirate WorldRespect surged across the seas.Whitebeard's title—World's Strongest Man—had never felt more deserved.
System Announcement
"Ding. Congratulations to Whitebeard."
"Second-place reward: Youth Rejuvenation Pill."
Silence.
Then—
Pandemonium.
"What?!""A pill that restores youth?!""All injuries… cured?!"
Marco jumped so hard he nearly fell over.
"That means Pops can return to his peak?!"
Jozu burst into laughter."A peak Whitebeard will flatten Marineford!"
The deck erupted in cheers.
A soft white glow appeared before Whitebeard.
A pale green pill floated in the air.
Even from a distance, Marco felt his mind clear just by breathing near it.
"Pops! Take it—now!"
Whitebeard chuckled and swallowed the pill without hesitation.
Warmth flooded his body.
Old pain vanished.Lingering sickness dissolved.Strength surged through his veins.
He rolled his neck—
And laughed.
"J-Just look at him!" Jozu stammered.
Wrinkles faded.His posture straightened.His white hair flowed freely, turning a rich golden hue.
The frail emperor was gone.
Standing there was a prime Whitebeard—dominant, powerful, overwhelming.
"Kurarararara!" Whitebeard roared."My sons—are you ready to rescue Ace?"
The crew answered with thunderous cheers.
Marineford
The atmosphere turned ice-cold.
Sengoku clenched his fists.
"That damn pirate…"
Garp's face darkened.
"A peak Whitebeard…"
Aokiji spoke quietly, tension heavy in his voice."Fleet Admiral… do we still execute Ace?"
Akainu slammed his palm into the table—the corner melted instantly.
"If we back down now," he snarled,"the Marines will lose all authority!"
"Justice cannot bend!"
Yet even Akainu knew the truth—
Facing Prime Whitebeard now meant near-certain death.
If the other Emperors joined him…
The world would burn.
The first match had ended.
But the consequences had only just begun.
