Chapter 249: The Whitebeard Pirates Appear!
Three hours left until the public execution.
At this moment, all of the Marine's elite forces were gathered at Marineford, waiting for the arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates.
The live broadcast had already started, and people all over the sea were watching the upcoming public execution.

"Ace, say your father's name!" Sengoku, holding the Den Den Mushi, sternly asked.
When Ace heard the word "father," his calm heart suddenly skipped a beat, but he quickly regained his composure.
He closed his eyes and answered calmly, "My Pops is Whitebeard."
"No!"
"Your mother's name was Portgas D. Rouge..." Before Ace could finish, Sengoku immediately interrupted.
When Sengoku mentioned Ace's mother's name, Ace's heart grew uneasy. This was the most painful and tender spot in his heart.
"One year and three months after your father died, a baby was born with the world's most evil bloodline. That baby is you. Your father was the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger!" Sengoku loudly declared Ace's identity to the entire world!
