Chapter 1806

On the battlefield, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was suddenly beside Su Xiao, and the coordinate inside Su Xiao's collar disappeared. This was the coordinate Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had set in advance using the Wolf Clan heirloom.

Ace fell to the ground with a 'thud', his hands still in a defensive posture.

"Dragon Flash, do you still have strength?"

Hearing this sentence, Ace, who was lying on the ground, was dazed for a moment. He raised his head and looked around; everywhere he looked was filled with the corpses of Navy soldiers.

"Hey, Dragon Flash."

The tip of Dragon Flash pointed in front of Ace. Ace looked at the owner of this blade, which made his body tense up immediately, because the man standing in front of him was the very same fierce criminal who had stood on the pile of corpses, covered in blood.

"Dragon Flash? Me?"

Ace pointed at himself. Although he wasn't very clear about what was going on, it seemed he had been saved.

"That's right, it's you. Do you still have strength? I'm a doctor."

"A doctor..." Ace pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and said: "I still have strength."

"Is that so? If you still have strength... then that won't do."

"?"

After Ace was stunned by these words, he immediately rolled to the side.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A few seconds later, Ace was in a kneeling position, his head pressed against the ground, clutching his abdomen in pain.

"You were imprisoned for too long before. Appropriately enduring blunt force is beneficial for your recovery."

As Su Xiao spoke, he signaled Amu to carry Ace. If the other party still had the strength to toss about, that certainly wouldn't do. If he were to jump out and court death, his plan would be ruined.

【Hint: The Hunter has successfully rescued Ace. Please ensure the other party survives until the end of the Marineford War plot event.】

The main quest 1 had a clue. A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face. As long as he covered Amu and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's retreat from Marineford, then the things afterward would be easy to handle.

Su Xiao had considered letting Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang set the coordinate outside the battlefield before. This seemed like it could save Ace directly, but in reality, it carried great risk. If there were no other Qiyuezhe in the Pirate World, Su Xiao would indeed do this, but Marineford had hundreds of Qiyuezhe. Once the Fifth Tier Qiyuezhe among them had space-tracking abilities, not only would Ace in his weakened state be dead for sure, but Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang would also bear significant risk while covering Ace, perhaps even losing his life.

It was different when Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang teleported near Su Xiao. Su Xiao's combat power, which was on par with an Admiral, was the guarantee. Moreover, there were other strong people here who would protect Ace.

"Can't let him leave. Go notify Fleet Admiral Sengoku."

"Portgas D. Ace is here!!"

A Navy soldier with higher intelligence roared. But his shout not only alerted Sengoku but also let the nearby pirates know this news.

"Success! Cover Ace's retreat! Retreat!"

"Pops he..."

"Retreat from the port first. Once we're on the ship, we won't fear the Navy."

Washinoki Washinoki Jishi of pirates charged toward Su Xiao. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang immediately changed the permissions of the Ice Goddess Halo, allowing the surrounding pirates to benefit as well.

Boom!

The ground shook, and the ice walls on both sides of the battlefield shattered. It was Whitebeard.

At this moment, Whitebeard was panting heavily, fresh blood dripping from the corners of his mouth. In his hand, he held a headless corpse—it was the Fifth Tier Qiyuezhe named Black Obsidian. He had been set up by his temporary teammate Apus. Actually, Black Obsidian had also wanted to set up Apus. At the moment, Whitebeard was in a nearly certain death situation, but there was only one kill reward.

At this time, Apus's arms were semi-transparent, and his two hands were very similar to claws, with distinct angles.

There was a reason for these two to fight among themselves. Whitebeard was enduring the siege of four people at the same time, and his physical condition was deteriorating rapidly. He had lost the deterrent power he had when he kicked Akainu away earlier, and being besieged to the point of defeat was only a matter of time.

If one were to stand in front of Whitebeard at this time, they could see several arm-thick blood holes on his shoulders and chest; these were caused by Kizaru. Fine ice crystals wrapped around the left half of Whitebeard's body.

At the broken ice dozens of meters away from Whitebeard, dozens of sneaky figures were crawling forward. They weren't low-tier Qiyuezhe, but Buggy's squad. He was about to lead a group of prisoners to escape the Marineford battlefield.

Buggy, who was crawling, paused his body, his face turning a bit pale. Something hard was poking into his crotch.

Buggy, dressed as a clown, reached out to touch it. The thing poking him had a smooth texture. When he brought it in front of him to look, it was something that looked like a conch.

"Captain Buggy, this seems to be a broadcast Den Den Mushi. I've seen it in the West Blue."

"Broadcast Den Den Mushi?"

Buggy, lying on the ground, was slightly confused, but soon, he felt a door opening to him. It was something called a live stream. Buggy, the pirate version of a big streamer, was about to go online to live stream the Marineford War!

On the other side of the battlefield, the two sides that had been slaughtering each other were now retreating and pursuing. The pirates' goal was to save Ace, and now they had achieved their expected goal. As long as they retreated from Marineford, that would be victory.

"Wait, Pops' situation is not good."

The shout of the 10th Division Commander, Curiel, slowed the pirates' retreat. They looked toward Whitebeard and saw Whitebeard covered in blood.

An ice bird flew toward Whitebeard and slammed into his chest. He strode back, and before he could catch his breath, several photon rays attacked, piercing his lower abdomen.

"Go save Pops!"

The eyes of several pirates turned red. They had only charged a few steps before they were dragged down by the pursuing Navy soldiers and died under a flurry of blades.

The pirates' shouts attracted Whitebeard. He used his peripheral vision to look in the direction of Su Xiao and reached out to tear off a piece of his tattered coat from his back.

Before the war began, Su Xiao had discussed one thing with Whitebeard. With Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's concealment ability, Su Xiao was confident in saving Ace, but retreating was a problem.

Whitebeard's reply was very straightforward: as long as Su Xiao saved Ace, he would cover everyone's retreat. Now, it was time for him to fulfill his promise.

Whitebeard glanced at Ace on Amu's shoulder, and he grinned—a smile from the heart.

Pfft!

An ice spear pierced Whitebeard's chest and quickly froze toward the surroundings. With a 'bang', the ice spear was shattered, along with Aokiji's elementalized arm. Aokiji's situation at this time wasn't good either; the fresh blood on his body was almost soaking through his clothes.

"Hoo, hoo..."

Whitebeard's breathing became more violent. He ignored the pain in his body, and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability wrapped around his hand, forming a white light sphere at least the size of a house.

Seeing this exaggeratedly large white light sphere, the space around Apus surged. His body disappeared starting from his arms, and Aokiji and Kizaru also retreated one after another.

Whitebeard swung his fist sideways, the atmosphere cracked, and a crack on the ground quickly spread across the plaza. The Navy soldiers who were pursuing the pirates were thrown into chaos.

At this time, in front of the Marine Headquarters, after Sengoku received the report from his adjutant, he took out a Den Den Mushi from his bosom. In less than half a minute, a roar came from the ice below the port. Roaring flames ignited, all the ships of the Whitebeard Pirates caught fire, and holes of various sizes appeared in the hulls. All the ships of the Whitebeard Pirates were destroyed, which was almost equivalent to cutting off their retreat.

The cannon fire on both sides of the port, which hadn't stopped, came to an abrupt end. As soon as the cannon fire stopped, Aokiji and Kizaru, who were fighting Whitebeard, jumped back one after another. Aokiji clapped his hands on the ground, and a tall ice wall appeared in front of him.

Outside the port, Pacifistas surrounded them from the outer port.

"Meteor Volcano!"

A low roar came from above the ice wall; it was Akainu, standing on the ice wall with fresh blood still on his face. As an Admiral, of course, he wouldn't lose his combat power so easily, but he was also heavily injured.

A large number of magma fists flew into the sky, illuminating the sky a dark red.

"Look over there!"

A pirate behind the ice wall shouted, and everyone looked outside the port. A huge golden four-pointed star appeared; it was Kizaru.

Golden light bullets fell from the sky, beginning to bombard most of the plaza indiscriminately. Sengoku had been waiting for the pirates to enter the port plaza so that it would be easier to surround them.

Boom, boom, boom...

Light rain fell from the sky, and the pirates fell in large numbers in an instant. The Navy soldiers near the ice wall couldn't help but cheer, but they couldn't stay happy for long and began to despair.

Just as the Yasakani no Magatama stopped, the sobbing sound of breaking wind attacked from high altitude. The sky turned dark red, and countless magma fists fell. The first to suffer weren't the pirates, but the Navy soldiers. The magma exploded, and several Navy soldiers were blasted into charcoal without even letting out a scream.

It was impossible for Aokiji to completely isolate the Navy and pirates in the chaotic battle, so a small portion of Navy soldiers would inevitably be isolated outside the ice wall. Precisely because of this, Sengoku had people cut off the broadcast Den Den Mushi.

Fortunately, Sengoku didn't want to kill this small portion of Navy soldiers. Aokiji had left many holes below the ice wall. Because the Navy was the blocking side, they were closest to the ice wall. But even though the Navy soldiers outside the ice wall quickly retreated to a safe point, nearly a hundred Navy soldiers still died under the magma fists, dying at the hands of their own people. The Navy soldiers who witnessed this scene lowered their eyes, pretending not to see it. These hundred-plus people 'mistakenly killed' by friendly forces were the responsibility of Sengoku, after all, it was his order. The number wasn't large, but the significance was very different.

Magma fist after magma fist fell. In less than a minute, the pirate side had suffered over 30% casualties, with nowhere to hide. In the rear were Kizaru and the Pacifistas, on the left and right sides were dense cannonballs, almost washing the ground, and in front was a towering ice wall. Whitebeard had already smashed three, but Aokiji was right behind the ice wall; as soon as the ice wall was smashed, a new one would immediately freeze out.

Su Xiao slashed and shattered a magma fist falling from the sky. He wasn't surprised by the current situation, or rather, he was just participating in this war, not one of the planners of this war. If that were the case, he would be confident in competing with Sengoku in terms of war.

Rescuing Ace from under Sengoku's nose meant Su Xiao's plan had succeeded. As for how many people in the Whitebeard Pirates would die, he wasn't their babysitter, and it had nothing to do with him. However, he had a surprise left for Sengoku, and he didn't know if that old man's heart could withstand it.

After Su Xiao slashed and shattered a few more magma fists smashing toward him, his gaze looked toward Akainu behind the ice wall. Akainu was heavily injured; if the other party dared to pursue Ace, Su Xiao was confident he could slaughter Akainu.
