**Awakening Skill- Heaven Manipulating Thunder God- Starfall Great Explosion!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Blinding white lasers streaked across the sky, quickly converging on Whitebeard.
“How evil…”
Under normal circumstances, Whitebeard could easily deal with this move. However, with his body currently disrupted by chaotic electrical currents, it took time for his body to respond to his brain’s commands.
Most critically, his perception was in disarray, and the surrounding threats made him hesitate.
Thus, to the onlookers, it seemed as if Whitebeard was just standing there, surrounded by the white light.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
“Hey, be careful! We’re still nearby!”
Kizaru couldn’t help but comment as the shockwaves from the explosions forced him to retreat while he endured severe pain.
**Dai Funka – Great Eruption!
Where one retreated, another advanced.
Akainu, also wounded by a vertical slash from his jaw to his abdomen, narrowly avoided being disemboweled.
Still, his sense of justice spurred him back into action. Coordinating with Rowen’s attack, he unleashed a **Dai Funka – Great Eruption** to engulf the blast zone in molten lava.
“Ugh!”
Akainu then fell to one knee, vomiting a pool of clotted blood.
Drip, Drip – the blood quickly pooled on the ground, making this whole scene a chilling sight.
“Let me handle this alone for now, Admiral Akainu.”
Seeing this, Rowen frowned slightly. “Your injuries are too serious and need immediate attention!”
In the original story, a weakened Whitebeard still managed to seriously injure Akainu. This battle, a year earlier and with Whitebeard fueled by grief, could easily result in the loss of an Admiral.
Continuing this way could lead to unnecessary casualties. Few Marine Admirals had met peaceful ends, as seen with Sengoku and Zephyr. Akainu’s death was not necessary, especially not under these circumstances.
“I… urgh… I’m fine!”
Akainu shook his head stubbornly, coughing up more blood as he spoke.
“As long as I can move, I can still be of some use!”
“…”
What could Rowen say to such a determined man?
Watching as Akainu tore his suit into makeshift bandages to bind his wound, Rowen turned, grabbed his thunder halberd, and unleashed a burst of electricity.
“Be careful, don’t die on me!”
**Super Electromagnetic Cannon!**
Zzz… Boom!!
A blue ring of electricity formed around the Thunder Dragon’s crescent-sided halberd, which buzzed sharply as it gathered power, then broke through the sound barrier and charged forward.
“Father!!”
At that moment, a huge blue flame descended from the sky.
The thunder halberd pierced through the wall of flame and impaled the figure behind it. However, Haki’s hardening defense reduced the power of the cannonball by at least three times.
Clang!!!
A sharp metallic sound echoed through the lava and fire. Through the smoke, a bloody hand reached up and grabbed the painted shaft of the thunder halberd’s center.
Scorch marks appeared on the edge of the hand holding the halberd, indicating that it was not easy to hold. But the owner of the hand seemed unfazed by the pain, standing motionless.
“Give me five minutes, Marco… this boy’s electricity is a bit annoying!”
Whitebeard deeply understood that if he couldn’t remove the electric currents from his body, he wouldn’t even have a chance to escape.
Sending Marco to intercept the combination of an Admiral and the Soryu was actually to ensure Marco’s safety.
When Rowen and Akainu saw Marco reform in the midst of the blue fire, they turned around and glared at Kizaru angrily.
“Kizaru!!!”
Wasn’t he supposed to be in hell already?
Why is he still here?
The battle against Whitebeard was intense, and the battlefield was vast, drawing the fights far apart.
That was why Rowen hadn’t noticed what had happened in the sky battle between Kizaru and Marco.
After all, these weren’t the leisurely days when the original Enel reigned supreme on Angel Island, idly eavesdropping on the residents’ conversations with the Heart Network.
“That shouldn’t be possible?”
Kizaru looked innocent as he spoke. “I handcuffed him with Seastone before punching him down, falling from that height should have been fatal without his Devil Fruit Abilities.”
In the previous battle, Kizaru had secretly pulled a Seastone handcuff out of his pocket and used his speed advantage to capture Marco. After handcuffing him, he followed up with a laser blast.
Then, seeing that Whitebeard was getting stronger in the main battle, Kizaru decisively rushed here, leaving Marco to fall into the sea from a height of thousand meters.
Even though Marco was a mythological beast, he wasn’t Kaido. Falling from a height of thousand meters into the sea would crush even an strong person.
“Oh, you mean this?”
Marco stood in front of the three considerably taller figures, casually lifting the seastone handcuffs dangling from his waist with a bandaged finger and smiling.
“A doctor’s fingers are very nimble!”
The difficulty of working with Seastone means that the handcuff locks are simple. Ordinary people with a little training could pick them, let alone Marco, a highly skilled doctor with precise hand control.
“Don’t worry about him, focus on killing Whitebeard!” Akainu glared at Kizaru before he spoke.
No wonder Kizaru didn’t bring Marco’s body; the truth was so simple.
“Well, Well!”
“Don’t look at me like that, it’s only Marco. Leave him to me.”
Kizaru spread his hands in a gesture of surrender and then quickly darted to Marco’s front.
**Lightspeed Kick!**
As the smoke from the explosion expanded, Rowen raised his hand and enveloped it in endless electricity, forming a terrifying thunderstorm.
**Heaven-Manipulating Thunder God- Starfall God’s Cry Shot!
Whoosh!!!
A suffocating sense of menace filled the air, causing everyone to hold their breath.
Rowen could feel that he had become much stronger since his battle with Big Mom. If this enhanced God’s Cry Shot hit, it would seriously injure Whitebeard, given his current disconnect between body and perception.
“Not a chance!”
At that moment, Marco charged through the smoke, transformed into a blue meteor, and collided with the incoming ball of white light in mid-air.
Boom!!!
Seeing this, Rowen blinked slightly.
“I remember your immortal blue flames aren’t really invincible; they have a limit to how much damage they can heal, right?”
Marco had a physical body and could still get hurt. The wounds would be surrounded by the Cyan Flame of Resurrection and heal, rendering the attacks ineffective.
However, there was a limit to the regeneration. If the damage exceeded a certain level, he would die even in his Devil fruit form.
This was slightly inferior to Logia users, who could completely negate physical damage unless they encountered Busoshoku Haki or a counter element. It couldn’t be relied upon as a trump card.
“That’s irrelevant.”
After the explosion, Marco appeared in the middle, panting slightly, with blue flames blooming all over his body with barely a patch of unscathed skin.
“Don’t forget, Soryu! Mythological beasts are also Zoans!”
And Zoans were undoubtedly the hardest to kill!
**Meigo – Nether Hound!
**Super Electromagnetic Cannon!
**Lightspeed Kick!**
As the commander of Whitebeard’s First Division, Marco was strong enough to face any of them in a fight. Understanding his determination to protect Whitebeard, they decided something at the same time:
They need to kill Marco as soon as possible!
However, the attacks weren’t aimed at Marco himself. That would give him enough time to adjust and mitigate the damage.
So, without prior consultation, their attacks converged on Whitebeard.
