Chapter 221

189. Bai Huzi's parting words: No ship in the new era can carry him!

Hearing the voice behind him, Blackbeard's triumphant grin instantly froze.

"Who is it?"

He turned around hastily.

Seeing the speaker, his pupils shrank sharply, yet he also breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it wasn't the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing; he was truly a bit afraid of meeting that man now.

Blackbeard spoke in an unfriendly tone:

"Moonlight Moria, so it's you. You dare call me Little Black Kid; your guts are quite big!"

Moria let out a bat-like laugh:

"Hee hee hee hee! This is how Lord Luo Xing addresses you; I feel it suits you perfectly, don't you think?"

Blackbeard's face instantly turned incredibly gloomy.

Back in Impel Down, the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing had called him Little Black Kid, making Blackbeard half-dead with anger yet powerless to do anything.

"Moria, I never expected you to secretly join the Beasts Pirates and become that man's subordinate!"

Moria addressing Luo Xing as my lord clearly indicated he was the latter's subordinate.

And Moria's appearance, as if he had been waiting for him here for a long time, made Blackbeard inevitably feel fear.

Could it be that his whereabouts have always been within that man's expectations?

How is that possible!

That man is not a god who can foresee the future!

Yet how can the matter before his eyes be explained?

Blackbeard, filled with doubt and fear, felt an inexplicable panic.

He increasingly believed Luo Xing was a terrifying man of unfathomable depth.

Fortunately, the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing himself was not here, but far away at the Sabaody Archipelago.

On his way here, Blackbeard had also seen the newspapers Morgans had distributed worldwide, knowing that Luo Xing had occupied Sabaody.

And if only Moria was here alone... Blackbeard couldn't help but show murderous intent.

Though Moria was one of the Seven Warlords and possessed considerable strength, Blackbeard's side had five people.

Plus the Dark-Dark Fruit that Blackbeard possessed, it was highly probable they could eliminate Moria.

Moria saw the murderous intent on Blackbeard's face and sneered:

"You want to kill me? You really love living in a daydream!"

"Although I also want to meet you, Lord Luo Xing's order is only to keep an eye on you; I'll let you be free for a while longer!"

Having said that.

Moria leaped into the air, teleporting to a spot hundreds of meters away from Blackbeard.

He merely watched from there, making no other moves.

Fighting Champion Burgess spoke with a ferocious expression:

"Captain, let me go kill that bat bastard!"

Blackbeard naturally also wanted to kill Moria; being watched by someone like this made him feel as if thorns were in his back.

For Blackbeard, who was accustomed to hiding in the darkness and observing others, this was extremely uncomfortable.

But seeing the speed with which Moria had just teleported, and his figure no longer as bloated as before,

Blackbeard vaguely guessed that Moria had probably eaten the Monster Cells of the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing, greatly increasing his strength.

Killing Moria would probably not be as easy as he initially thought.

The most critical thing now was to seize the Tremor-Tremor Fruit of Bai Huzi.

Wasting too much time here with Moria was truly unwise.

Blackbeard then said to Burgess:

"Burgess, now is not the time to kill him. Your task is to keep a tight watch on him for me; do not let him ruin my good deed!"

After assigning the tasks,

Blackbeard, while keeping an eye on Moria, headed towards the port square of Marineford.

Very quickly,

he saw the great battle taking place in the square.

Fire Fist Ace was dead; Bai Huzi had a large hole in his chest, clearly suffering grievous wounds.

But Bai Huzi completely disregarded his injuries, carrying surging anger and murderous intent, and came up behind Akainu, who had killed Ace.

Bai Huzi, risking his life, erupted completely.

Terrifying shockwaves gathered on his fist, and he smashed one punch onto Akainu's head.

Akainu's face was rubbed against the ground by the shockwave, his waist twisting into an eerie curve.

If he were not a Logia-type ability user, his waist would probably have snapped.

Boom!

The ground collapsed.

Akainu used the cracks in the ground to roll away.

Then, recklessly disregarding his own safety, he launched an attack on Bai Huzi, roaring:

"The evil bloodline of the Pirate King is already extinct; you, the failure of your era, should go to hell too!"

Akainu and Bai Huzi engaged in a great battle once again.

This battle was fiercer than the last one.

Terrifying tremors and magma had half-destroyed the entire Marineford.

Akainu seized the opportunity, unleashed another Hell's Dog, and pierced Whitebeard's chest once more.

Yet Whitebeard was truly a monster; he was not dead, but instead grabbed Akainu's collar and hurled him into the sky.

Immediately, his right arm muscles bulged high as he smashed down hard against Akainu's waist.

Crack!

The atmosphere shattered.

Akainu was shaken until his entire body crumbled; he coughed up great mouthfuls of blood, fell to the ground, and then rolled into a crack in the earth.

From start to finish, the idle high-level combatants of the Navy—Kuzan, Huang Yuan, Garp, and Sengoku—did not a single one go to help Akainu.

If Luo Xing were Akainu, he would have long since destroyed the entire Navy Headquarters.

This Navy full of actors is not worth staying for!

Having driven Akainu into the ground, Whitebeard's rage finally eased.

But what followed was endless grief.

No matter how furious he became, Ace was dead; he could never be resurrected.

And since Ace was dead, he absolutely could not let any of his remaining sons meet with misfortune!

Whitebeard took a deep breath and suddenly roared:

"All members of the Whitebeard Pirates, listen! I am issuing my final captain's order!"

"You must leave this place immediately and return safely to the New World!"

As he spoke, he assumed the standard power stance of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

"I am a remnant of the old era; the new era has no ship capable of carrying me!!"

Crack, crack, crack!!

The atmosphere shattered into countless pieces like a mirror.

A chasm like a cliff stretched between Whitebeard and the Whitebeard Pirates!

Whitebeard was bidding farewell to his sons!

At the same moment.

At the Revolutionary Army headquarters, the White Land Island of Baltigo.

Emporio Ivankov, the Okama King who escaped from Impel Down, finally arrived here, panting heavily.

Accompanying him was the Revolutionary Army officer, the Mane-Mane Fruit user, Inazuma.

"Finally made it; I'm exhausted!"
