Chapter 16 16: Sun God—Monkey D. Luffy!
Bleach World!
As the footage ended, Aizen walked toward the depths of Las Noches.
Although the Hōgyoku had not fully fused yet, he could still borrow a portion of its power.
Next, other worlds would inevitably appear!
And what he needed to do was record, and even learn, those powers!
Relying on his own analytical ability alone would be difficult.
But with the Hōgyoku, it seemed worth a try!
...
Naruto World!
Inside the Valley of the End!
Sasuke extended his invitation once again and said sincerely, "Naruto, come with me."
"I have a reason I must leave, and Konoha is nothing but a place of sorrow for you."
Naruto, who had hesitated earlier, had already returned to normal.
He shook his head.
"I won't go. And I won't let you leave either!"
"That Orochimaru isn't even hiding his malice. He definitely has some purpose for you!"
Sasuke's gaze became sharp once again.
"You don't understand, Naruto!"
"I no longer have a second path to take. Even death would be better than being tortured by memories in the middle of the night!!"
The atmosphere became tense, ready to erupt!
But in the next moment, both of them froze at the same time!
Because they still could not mobilize even a trace of Chakra, and their desire to attack was instantly erased!
One Piece World!
As the screen dimmed, the pirates' expressions became tense!
Their side's strongest fighter, Whitebeard, had suffered a fatal wound and could die at any moment!
And during this period when they could not attack and could not leave Marineford, the Marines had already spread out and completed their encirclement!
On top of that, there were the Seven Warlords, the Three Admirals, and the Fleet Admiral!
With the chaos no longer covering them, their current situation was practically desperate!
As for the Marines, they were only waiting for the battle-ban effect to disappear before launching a full-scale assault!
On the execution platform, Garp clenched his fist, then loosened it again, his heart incomparably conflicted.
Kizaru sat leisurely in his seat.
His expression seemed to say, Since we have such a huge advantage, I won't bother moving.
As for Akainu, he was already gathering momentum, revealing a ferocious smile!
This opportunity was too good. He absolutely could not let these big fish escape!
On the Moby Dick!
Whitebeard closed his eyes and quietly waited for the opportunity, while the others on the ship had already been driven away by him!!
He had already made his preparations!
The moment the restriction was lifted, he would unleash all of his remaining strength and do his utmost to shatter Marineford!
At that time, whoever could escape would escape.
The screen grew darker and darker, and the atmosphere became more and more oppressive!
Ten seconds later!
Just as the screen turned completely black, the pirates and Marines roared at the same time!
And then...
Then a rather comical scene appeared.
Everyone howled like ghosts and wolves as if they were competing to see whose voice was louder, but their feet stayed rooted in place, and no one actually launched a charge!
Just as everyone was completely dumbfounded, the screen unexpectedly lit up again!
"Tch. So it's continuous..." Akainu, who had already been ready to attack, said in disappointment.
Beside him, Sengoku looked toward Ace, the son of a criminal, and said calmly, "Don't rush, Akainu."
"The ending is already decided. When the golden light disappears, that will be the time of their deaths."
On the pirates' side, many people simultaneously let out a long breath of relief.
At this moment, the image on the screen gradually became clear.
In the next moment, everyone raised their heads at the same time and saw an astonishing scene!
Beneath a blood-red sky!
Two massive, burly "familiar faces" with an intense sense of pressure stood upon the earth!
And that was not all!
In front of these two stood a young man with a cold expression, wearing a straw hat!
At first glance, he seemed like an ant standing at the feet of giants!
But at second glance, they discovered!
That was no ant!
He was like a brave warrior about to slay a dragon, fearless against everything!
At this moment, countless people in the One Piece World revealed shocked gazes!
Because they had already recognized who those two figures with such intense pressure were!
Captain of the Big Mom Pirates, Charlotte Linlin!!
Governor-General of the Beasts Pirates, the Strongest Creature, Kaido!!
These were two Four Emperors!
Who was that young man, to actually dare stand before the two of them like this!?
And what was even more terrifying was!
No matter how they looked at the image before them, it looked like the prelude to a great battle about to erupt!
But how was that possible? Forget two Four Emperors!
Even one of them was not someone who could be defeated!
And right at that moment, the title appeared!
One Piece World!
The fall of the old emperor and the rise of the new emperor—Sun God Monkey D. Luffy!
Whoosh!!
Marineford!
At this moment, countless gazes all turned toward the same direction!
If before, it had merely looked somewhat similar!
Then the moment the name appeared, it was confirmed!
The young man standing before two Four Emperors without changing expression was actually Luffy, who had nearly died just now!
And what made the scalps of countless pirates and Marines go numb in disbelief even more was!
What did "the fall of the old emperor" mean!?
Could it be that the two Four Emperors had been defeated?
What did Sun God mean?
Moreover, just hearing that name alone made their minds tremble!
On the ice.
Luffy's mouth hung wide open, and his brain completely failed to process it.
He had never expected that he would actually appear on the list as well!
On the shattered execution platform, Garp put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! As expected of my grandson!"
Sengoku glared fiercely at him, and the latter immediately behaved himself!
Beside them, Akainu's expression was no longer what it had been before. It had already turned gloomy!
On Onigashima!
Kaido looked toward the sky, his eyes radiating a terrifying light!
He did not believe in this bullshit future!
Holy Land, Mary Geoise!
The moment the words "Sun God" appeared, the expressions of the Five Elders changed at the same time!
