Chapter 515: White Beard

Terrifying cracks blanketed the void like a spiderweb, yet their speed was extraordinarily swift.

The expressions of the three admirals changed in an instant.

Shock, disbelief, and solemnity all appeared.

Aokiji drew a sharp breath, instantly raising his hand as terrifying frost spread toward the void—but shattered instantly amid the interwoven cracks.

It couldn't even hold for an instant.

Tenghu's smile moved with incredible speed; he flipped over and leapt directly off Dragn's ship, landing on the ice, evading the rupturing void cracks.

As for Aokiji and Huang Yuan, both rapidly elementalized.

Though their bodies were shattered by the interwoven spatial fissures.

But it was no serious matter.

Without Armament Haki or Seastone, harming them was no simple matter.

"Bai Hu Zi... the strongest man in the world! The strongest pirate, possessing the power to destroy the world."

Though Tenghu's eyes were closed, his Observation Haki clearly sensed the ultimate power surging within Bai Hu Zi.

His expression became utterly solemn.

Huang Yuan transformed into a flash of light, appearing in midair, occasionally patting his chest.

"This is really scary! Super scary."

Though his tone was carefree, Huang Yuan's expression was now intensely solemn.

A trickle of cold sweat emerged on his forehead.

Sabo and Mengqi Lage stood on the other side of the Winter.

Terrifying cracks wove past them before their eyes, yet not a single hair of theirs was harmed.

Lage felt no surprise at all; he even had the leisure to open a livestream.

But Sabo's eyelid twitched, murmuring.

"... Has our ship already been ruined?"

Although the Winter had already suffered multiple severe blows during clashes with the admirals, it had at least remained afloat on the ocean—but now, with Bai Hu Zi's punch, half of the Winter was destroyed outright.

If Aokiji hadn't frozen the ocean upon his arrival, the Winter would have already sunk into the sea.

"This isn't a big problem! Later, have Bai Hu Zi and the others help us rebuild it."

Lage said as if it were obvious.

"... So when exactly did you get in touch with Bai Hu Zi?"

Sabo gave him a strange look.

He didn't need to see—it was clear Bai Hu Zi had come roaring in solely to rescue them.

But Sabo didn't recall Lage having any connection to Bai Hu Zi, and Bai Hu Zi's extreme tension made Sabo wonder—could Lage have been Bai Hu Zi's son back in the day? After all, Bai Hu Zi only showed such tension toward his own sons.

"If everything's true—that Lage is Bai Hu Zi's son, and Ace is Bai Hu Zi's son—then how do I handle my relationships here?"

Sabo was deeply conflicted.
