This tsunami was a life and death test for them, and for the ordinary soldiers who were not strong, it was a complete annihilation! If it were just the naval fleet, Whitebeard wouldn’t care.
However, Rowen had broken his Tremor’s division of the sea with Drums of Heaven, causing both sides to become entangled. In the chaotic melee, it was difficult to tell friends from foe. If Whitebeard didn’t intervene, his “children” would be doomed.
Except for a few Fish-Men and Mermaids, no one would survive.
Therefore, Rowen and Akainu did not face the entire ocean, but only those forces that avoided the main battle and headed directly for McKinley Island.
How big is McKinley Island?
Rowen could run back and forth twice in one breath.
So, how could they get exhausted?
At that moment, Rowen also felt a sense of relief.
Imagine if he hadn’t violently broken Whitebeard’s Tremor and allowed the main forces to become entangled. If they’d just focused on fighting Whitebeard, the directions they had to defend would have multiplied!
Fate works in mysterious ways, balancing every gain and loss.
“Is this… Fish-Man Karate? How well have you trained?” Akainu asked, his eyes shining with excitement.
“Not very well…” Rowen replied honestly.
Years ago, before he mastered Busoshoku Haki (Armament Haki), he sought out this Fish-Man Karate technique from the Kano Country Admiral Fish-Man Jade, facilitated by the former Queen Rosa, to counter Crocodile’s Sand-Sand Fruit.
After sending Crocodile to Impel Down, the unique “Wind Treading Class” Fish-Man Karate style was set aside.
“But…” Rowen’s tone changed, a slight smile forming at the corner of his mouth, “Don’t forget, I have mastered Life Return.
Life Return, the esoteric technique beyond Marine’s Rokushiki, and is an unnamed seventh move.
It allows one to control one’s body in minute detail. When the body has no secrets from you, learning is faster and any skill, if the body allows, can be performed to its full potential.
Rowen’s accomplishments today are closely related to his early mastery of Life Return.
The Goro Goro no Mi (Thunder-Thunder Fruit) was merely a seed. Its potential was unknown, but a body mastered by Life Return provided the ideal soil for its growth.
Using Life Return to power the Wind Treading Class Fish-Man Karate was sufficient for the current situation.
“Alright… it’s coming again, get ready!” Akainu said, not asking any more questions.
The three Admirals weren’t exceptional in martial arts, and the intricacies of Life Return were too profound for Akainu. But since Rowen was confident, there was no need to delve any further.
Boom!!!
Magma erupted, and the roaring sound was deafening.
The sky-high waves were torn apart by the volcanic eruption and dispersed into a rainstorm.
Rowen, using the powerful physique of his Violent Ape of Hell form, controlled the wind, felt its flow, gathered the sea currents bit by bit, and then formed them into a single force.
Sea Current: Shoulder Throw!
Splash!
The swirling seawater pierced through the base of the wave, instantly creating a huge hole. The unsupported upper layer of seawater continued to advance, losing momentum after a hundred meters, and gradually calmed down.
Why isn’t Fish-Man Karate popular?
The historical hatred between fish-men and humans is one reason. The other is its difficulty, as this technique is comparable to the high-level techniques of Rokushiki.
Fish-men, with their tenfold strength advantage over humans, could popularize it.
However, even on Fish-Man Island, the status of Fish-Man Karate is similar to Marine Rokushiki, with only a handful of people mastering it compared to the entire population.
This technique becomes more powerful as you face stronger opponents, requiring a strong physique and arm strength to support it!
The pure physical boost provided by the Violent Ape of Hell Form far surpasses that of the Thunderous Titan mode, allowing Rowen to handle it more easily and unleash even more terrifying effects.
“Fish-Man Karate… huh?”
Whitebeard glanced over and noticed Rowen’s movements, and was momentarily distracted.
The king of Fish-Man Island, “Ocean Knight” Neptune, was his old friend. When humans captured fish-men and mermaids as slaves on a massive scale, Whitebeard had protected his friend by planting his flag on Fish-Man Island.
However, during a recent crisis on Fish-Man Island, the resurgence of the slave trade was suppressed by Soryu, something Whitebeard had always remembered.
“Distracted while fighting me? Truly worthy to be Whitebeard, how terrifying, how terrifying!” Kizaru’s icy voice rang in his ear and Whitebeard’s eyes flashed with brilliance as he threw a punch.
Skyquake!
Lightspeed Kick!
Boom…
Bang Rumble!!!
The shockwave of light exploded on the spot, the gusts of air blowing the cloaks of both men behind them, causing them to flap wildly.
Kizaru’s face looked somewhat grim. The piercing pain in his leg bone told him that he had lost this round.
Sure enough…
“Gūlālālā, Kizaru, facing me head-on was an unwise decision!”
“Ha!!”
With a roar, Kizaru twisted his body and kicked, trying to use his speed advantage to counterattack.
But Whitebeard’s reaction was even quicker. The moment Kizaru moved, a tremendous shockwave erupted, sending him flying and crashing into the distant mountains.
The Tremor continued its momentum, sweeping through the vast space in the blink of an eye.
Boom!
For a moment, the sky and sea were still.
Not because the Tremor had lost its momentum, but because everything was falling one by one.
In a very short time, all the waves were “pushed” back into the sea, and peace was restored!
Rowen and Akainu, who were preparing their next moves, were dumbfounded, staring at the calm, unruffled sea in shock and confusion over Whitebeard’s intentions.
“The small waves don’t seem to be enough, Soryu, Akainu…”
“How about this move?”
Whitebeard grinned as he raised his naginata in a domineering manner and pointing it skyward.
Earthquake: Crumble!
“Watch out for the underground!!!”
Rowen’s mind became alarmed, instantly dispersing his Violent Ape of Hell form, and in the next second, he appeared a thousand meters away.
Boom!
Almost as soon as Rowen left, streams of water and air burst through the ground, tore through the rocks, and shot into the sky.
It looked like Niagara Falls, but instead of water flowing down, it shot up.
Rowen’s experience was not unique. The moment Whitebeard raised his naginata, tens of millions of tons of seawater erupted in unison.
In several places, they tore through the hard land of McKinley Island, ripping the island to shreds, and then spread into the sky in a most unscientific manner.
Whitebeard, with his naginata raised high, stood in the middle of the shattered space, surrounded by cracks in the air like broken glass. Purple-black thunder crackled relentlessly, making him look like an ancient demonic god against the backdrop of the vast ocean curtain.
Seeing this grand and magnificent scene, Rowen wanted to shout out loud.
“Nail down Newton’s coffin!”
The force that drove the tsunami hadn’t disappeared or been neutralized; it had been forced through the island’s foundation, into the bedrock, coalescing and then exploding outward.
Tremors were Whitebeard’s specialty; only he could perform such an incredible feat.
This may be hard to understand, but perhaps this title makes it clear at a glance.
Blowing up the island!
Using Tremor to trigger a massive tsunami, then guiding the tsunami’s force into the underground, finally exploding the entire island from within!
What does the power to Destroy the World mean?
Whitebeard demonstrated it to everyone, showing that destroying the world is that simple.
