Chapter 106

As Chibaku Tensei's terrifying power swept across Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, once impregnable, had already become ruins.

The few surviving Navy soldiers stared dumbfounded at the scene before them, as if trapped in a nightmare.

"How... how is this possible? Are the Admirals trapped inside?" a young Navy soldier muttered, his voice trembling.

"Headquarters... Headquarters is gone?" another soldier slumped to the ground, gazing blankly at the enormous rock sphere in the sky.

As time passed, seawater began to constantly pour into this low-lying area.

Marineford, once grand and imposing, was now like a giant puddle, being devoured bit by bit by blue seawater, leaving only a few footholds.

"Evacuate quickly! The seawater is going to flood this place!" a Vice Admiral regained his senses and began shouting loudly, trying to organize the remaining troops to retreat.

At this moment, Doflamingo let out a sharp laugh, "Keh keh keh keh! Interesting, truly too interesting! This play is more exciting than I imagined!"

Bōyǎ·Hànkùkè suddenly spoke: "I'm leaving." Her voice was cold as frost: "There is no longer any reason for me to stay here."

"Oh? Snake Princess is leaving?" Doflamingo tilted his head to look at Hancock, "This good play isn't over yet?"

Hancock coldly glanced at him: "The fighting of foolish men has nothing to do with me."

After speaking, she turned and left, her proud silhouette soon disappearing into the chaotic crowd.

"Tsk tsk, truly cold-hearted." Doflamingo shook his head, then revealed an excited smile, "But this is more interesting. I want to see how this world-class play will end!"

Yuèguāng·Mòlìyà had a gloomy expression, a flash of fear in his eyes: "This kind of monster is not something humanity can fight against; staying here is just courting death, I'm leaving too."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuèguāng·Mòlìyà's figure vanished in a flash on the battlefield.

His tall figure instantly merged with a shadow in the distance, and the next moment appeared on the deck of a still-intact warship.

Moria looked around, confirming he had safely escaped that purgatory-like battlefield. He looked down at his trembling hands, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

As one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he considered himself extraordinary, but before that monster, he didn't even have the courage to stand, let alone plunder corpses...

"Set sail! Quick!" Moria summoned countless zombies the next second.

Amidst the sound of hurried footsteps, the warship slowly departed from Marineford.

At this moment on the battlefield.

Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in Madara Uchiha's mind: 【Main Mission Completed, return?】

Madara's gaze fell on Whitebeard before him, and he silently answered in his heart: "No."

【Can stay for three more hours】

Madara's mouth corners slightly rose, a flash of interest in his eyes. He lightly raised his right hand, a wisp of Wood Release extending from his fingertip, like a flexible vine spreading toward Whitebeard.

Whitebeard showed a puzzled expression, but did not dodge; just as Wood Release was about to touch him, a soft green light appeared.

The next second, Whitebeard suddenly felt a warm current flow into his body, as warm as spring sunlight.

This power quickly spread throughout his body; wherever it reached, it was like a withered tree meeting spring, bursting with new vitality.

His old injuries that had troubled him for years suddenly felt strange. The places that originally ached faintly now felt a comfortable warmth.

"This is..." Whitebeard muttered, his voice carrying a hint of surprise.

Madara chuckled: "Don't misunderstand, I just don't want to fight an old man who's about to die."

Whitebeard was silent for a moment, then laughed heartily to the sky: "Gurararara! Interesting! Madara Uchiha, you are truly an interesting fellow!" Madara chuckled: "I just want to see how strong the 'Strongest Man in the World' at his peak really is."

Soon, a long-lost power surged within Whitebeard.

He felt as if he had returned to his peak period, that domineering aura that roamed the seas and was invincible awakening once more within his body.

Whitebeard gripped his naginata, a flash of fanaticism in his eyes; he said softly: "Truly a nostalgic feeling."

The next moment, he slowly raised the naginata in his hand, his muscles instantly tensing, his entire body exuding a suffocating oppressive feeling.

"Then let you see!" Whitebeard let out a low roar and took a sudden step forward.

The ground instantly cracked open, countless cracks spreading outward with Whitebeard as the center. The next moment, Whitebeard's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Whitebeard's figure suddenly appeared above Madara, the naginata in his hand wrapped in terrifying power, viciously chopping down at Madara.

Madara's eyes narrowed, Susanoo instantly formed; the huge blue energy giant wielded the long sword in his hand, meeting Whitebeard's naginata.

Boom! Two terrifying powers collided in midair, erupting with a shocking shockwave.

The sea surface within several kilometers was instantly lifted, forming giant waves hundreds of meters high.

The distant Navy warships were as fragile as paper before this terrifying power, easily thrown into the sky. The Navy soldiers on the deck were terrified, desperately grabbing the railings and masts beside them.

"Leave here!" a Navy officer shouted hoarsely, "This is not a battle we can interfere in!"

At this moment, a tall figure suddenly descended from the sky, heavily smashing onto the deck.

Bang! Amidst the sound of splintering wood, Yuèguāng·Mòlìyà lay in a sorry state on the deck, his huge body trembling violently, his face full of terror.

"Damn it! What kind of monster is this?" Moria struggled to get up, his eyes wide open, his gaze full of fear.

He had just been preparing to escape the battlefield, but was blown away by that terrifying shockwave; the ship he was on shattered instantly, and he tumbled in the air, finally heavily smashing onto this warship.

As soon as he finished speaking, there were earth-shaking loud bangs again.

Whitebeard and Madara's figures quickly crossed in the air, each collision triggering a terrifying energy explosion.

Bang! The two collided, and the energy wave released was like a nuclear bomb explosion.

A shocking heat wave swept across; the seawater within tens of kilometers instantly evaporated, revealing a bottomless ocean trench, with countless marine creatures struggling on the dry seabed.

The shockwave quickly spread. Mǐhèkè crossed his arms, Black Blade Yoru drawing an arc before him, forming an invisible barrier; his feet sank deep into the ground, yet he remained motionless.

"Keh keh keh keh! This power..." Doflamingo let out his signature laugh, his fingers moving quickly, manipulating countless threads to form a dense net around him, blocking part of the shock.

Mǐhèkè narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze fixed on the two fighting in the distance.

He had originally wanted to take this opportunity to see the gap between himself and Whitebeard, but now he had to admit that this far exceeded his imagination.

Madara stood atop Susanoo, looking down at Whitebeard, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth: "Not bad as a warm-up."

"Warm-up?" Mǐhèkè's pupils suddenly contracted.

Doflamingo also rarely put away his smile, his expression serious: "A battle of this level is actually just a warm-up?"
