One Piece - I'm Whitebeard

Chapter 37: 37 Last Obstacle, Marine Hero Garp!



Marineford trembled violently.

Massive cracks tore through the island in all directions, ripping it apart.

The buildings on the island collapsed and were swallowed by the relentless cracks, disappearing into the abyss.

At the end…

Even the tallest building symbol of justice shattered before the horrified gaze of all the Marines, crumbling into ruins.

The tallest building in the headquarters collapsed!

Amidst the rumbling and swirling dust, it turned into a pile of ruins.

The justice and peace it symbolizes seemed to have been trampled under Whitebeard's feet.

And he crushed it without mercy.

And in this kind of vibration…

The Admiral's attack vanished, and Whitebeard remained unscathed.

Marines Officer, Rear Admiral, Vice Admiral, and Ouka Shichibukai

At that moment, they all stared in disbelief at the unfolding scene.

Marco and the others, as well as the prisoners from Impel Down, came to a halt and fixed their gaze on the unfolding spectacle.

They are shocked!

Extremely shocked!

There is only one thought in everyone's mind right now!

That they finally know how strong the strongest man in the world is!

In this confrontation, Whitebeard remains unscathed while causing massive destruction to Marineford!

"Is this how powerful Whitebeard truly is?"

A deep shock flashed in Hawkeye's eyes, and he lower down his sword and looked up at Redfield: "This battle is over!"

Knowing the true strength of Whitebeard, Hawkeye had no intention to engage in another battle..

Realizing that his own skills were insufficient, Hawkeye acknowledged that he still had a long way to go before reaching Whitebeard's level.

So he is ready to leave and continue to strengthen himself.

"Sure...."

Redfield didn't stop Hawkeye

After hearing this, Hawkeye immediately sheathed his sword and walked away without hesitation.

Although the outcome of this war is still uncertain.

But witnessing the true power of Whitebeard, he realized that the Marine couldn't restrain or hinder Whitebeard's actions.

So there is no need to stay.

"Humph!"

"Is he gone?"

Not far away, Crocodile gave a cold snort seeing Hawkeye walk away, but quickly looked in Whitebeard's direction, with a solemn expression in his face: "This old man is still incredibly strong!"

"No…he even stronger than before!"

That's right!

Whitebeard is even stronger now than he was in his prime!

Elderly Whitebeard possesses greater combat experience and mastery of his Devil Fruit ability compared to his prime, despite his physical prowess being at its peak during his youth.

And now…

Whitebeard has both advantages.

Whitebeard's strength has naturally reached a level that can be called the strongest!

"Can we really defeat Whitebeard?"

In contrast to the amazed Pirate crew, the Marine soldiers displayed unprecedented despair.

Whitebeard performance is incredibly strong!

Strong enough to make everyone desperate!

Everyone began to question whether the victory of this war really belonged to the Marines!

Just when everyone feels lost.

A loud laughter echoed, snapping everyone back to reality.

"Guurarara~"

"This is not the time to be surprised, focus on breaking through Marine's defense with all your might!"

Whitebeard slammed the hilt of his Naginata into the ground, and laughter echoed through the air.

He knew that he had only temporarily stopped the three Admiral, rather than defeating the three.

There is a huge difference between stopping and defeating.

And among the three Admirals, Akainu was the only one who fought desperately

Aokiji and Kizaru, on the other hand, were mostly spectators, using only a few skills without unleashing their full strength.

So now is the best time.

As long as they seize this opportunity, they can rescue Ace!

"Yes, Let's break through their defense quickly!"

Marco quickly regained his senses and launched a fierce attack on Vice Admiral Onigumo.

"Rescue Ace!"

"Go!"

"The victory of this war will definitely belong to us!"

The Whitebeard Pirates' crew cheered loudly, their morale soaring high.

And at this moment.

Bullet and Luffy charged towards the execution platform

As Luffy gazed at his brother before him, a carefree laughter escaped his lips.

"Ace!!!"

"Luffy!"

Ace, kneeling on the ground, raised his head with an anxious expression.

With the confusion in his heart resolved, Ace made a firm decision to hold on no matter what happened.

But even so…

He still didn't want Luffy to risk himself to save him!

"They're coming!"

Sengoku's expression on the execution stage changed, and he tried to stop Ace from being rescued by the two.

But before he could take any action.

Another person swiftly appeared, standing between Sengoku and the execution platform.

Yes…Marine hero Garp!

At the last moment, he stood up.

Driven by his unwavering belief in justice, he positioned himself firmly, blocking Luffy and Bullet path forward.

Luffy's eyes widened in surprise as he saw the approaching figure.

"Grandfather?!"

"Get away gramps!!"

"How could I get away? I am a Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters!"

Garp shouted with a serious look: "I was fighting pirates long before you were born, so if you want to pass through here, kill me first!"

After saying this, pain flashed in his eyes.

If Ace is Marine.

Regardless of whether Ace is Roger's son or not, he will fight with all his might to protect him.

But...…

Ace was a pirate!

Have a different position from him!

So, no matter what, he must stand up and intervene!

"I don't want to!"

Luffy shout and continued to rush.

During the clash, Luffy skin turned red and the steam emerge from his skin, and then he launch a punch toward Garp.

As the fists drew nearer, Garp's momentum reached its peak.

He doesn't know why…

Suddenly recalled the appearance of Ace and Luffy when they were young.

As the softness in his heart was touched, his momentum dissipated.

"Though there's no need to sympathize with ruthless criminals at sea, it's different when it comes to family..."

The angry eyes slowly closed.

Faced with Luffy's punch, Garp couldn't avoid it.

BOOM!

A heavy thud resonated.

Garp, the Marine hero, was sent flying by Luffy punch.

At this moment, Luffy is just one step away from reaching the execution platform!
