One Piece: Lord of Disaster.

Chapter 326 The End of Whitebeard
Why are these bastards here?
Whitebeard had absolutely no idea about this.

Is the Whitebeard Pirates still a significant threat to the current pirate alliance?
Even if that bastard Roya is petty, when he returned and began to conquer the new world again, I had already taken everyone away from that sea area at the first opportunity!

why?
Whitebeard couldn't understand why this was happening!
But he knew that now was indeed a critical moment for the life and death of the entire Whitebeard Pirates!

Delaying time, all we can do now is to delay time as much as possible!

"Shiki!"

Whitebeard raised his voice, roaring almost hoarsely, "What do you mean? What does Roya mean?!"

"Newgate—"

Looking down at the man on the deck below, the Golden Lion felt a mix of emotions.

Of course, we can't be considered friends.

Even when they were in the Rocks Pirates together, they could only be considered accomplices, not even companions.

But without a doubt, this man, like Roger, was a strongman whom Roger recognized.

"Sigh, although I really wanted to say that I'm here to invite you to join us,"

The Golden Lion sighed inexplicably, "But Newgate, it's time to pay the price for the wrong decisions you made back then."

"Mommy, Mommy! Whitebeard! You're doomed!"

Charlotte Linlin didn't share the inexplicable sadness of the Golden Lion; her smile and words were filled with nothing but schadenfreude.

"Roya, we've sent someone to take you down!"

Whitebeard's grip on his naginata tightened instantly. He gritted his teeth slightly, "I don't remember ever offending that Roja guy again! When that bastard returned and started acting again, I already backed down. Does he still want to keep bothering me?!"

Honestly, Whitebeard must have felt really wronged.

Is that bastard Roya really that petty?

Golden Lion exhaled a smoke ring. "You should know how vengeful that brat is."

"And this time, there's a reason I absolutely have to kill you, Newgate."

Whitebeard was of no importance to Roja, but Teach, who had surpassed human limits after eating the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and was second only to the two of them in strength, was very important to Roja.

Therefore, this man must die.

There's not much to say about the Golden Lion.

They are either allies or enemies.

Even if you're an old acquaintance, even if you admire someone, an enemy is still an enemy.

A dead enemy is the best enemy.

"Thief hahahaha!"

Teach looked at Whitebeard with almost greedy eyes. "In short, just die peacefully, Whitebeard!"

Is it that bastard Rocks' son?

Whitebeard naturally knew about this guy's background.

It's not surprising that Rocks' son hangs out with Roya, the bastard chosen by Rocks.

"Shiki!"

Whitebeard suddenly looked up at Golden Lion, "If I die, will you spare the children?"

"Dad!!"

Whitebeard's children gasped in surprise; they understood perfectly well what their father meant.

"Zehahaha! No way, Whitebeard!"

Teach grinned, "Many of your children possess Devil Fruits that would be of great help to the Boss!"

Devil Fruit?

What does it mean?
Whitebeard didn't understand, but he did understand one thing.

There's no point in saying anything more now!

"Children! Prepare for battle!"

Whitebeard roared.

"Yes! Dad!"

Even if the enemy is so strong that you can tell at a glance how the final outcome will be, that is not a reason to back down!

Since they want to kill Daddy, and all of them, then let's fight to the death!

"Hehehe! Of course it's over!"

Kaido suddenly plummeted from the sky, pulled out his spiked club from behind, and slammed it down on Whitebeard on the deck, yelling, "Whitebeard! Let me be your burial!"

"Kaido!"

A translucent shockwave sphere condensed on the blade of Whitebeard's naginata, while jet-black, domineering lightning began to leap.

Although Whitebeard's power had been greatly weakened compared to his peak due to illness, he still gave it his all at this moment.

boom! !

The naginata and the iron rod collided with a loud crash in mid-air.

The incredibly sturdy Moby Dick began to shake violently, its deck was cracking, and its hull was blown open.

The surrounding fields collapsed instantly, and the nearby river was also cut off, with the river water being blown skyward.

Not only that, the officers behind Whitebeard were all blown backward, and very few of them were able to stand still.

As is customary, the clouds in the sky are suddenly split open by a huge crack.

"Stinky brat!"

The Golden Lion cursed, clearly annoyed.

Kaido beat him to it!
Amidst the fierce collision, an angry roar resounded.

"Whitebeard! You've gotten old, you bastard!"

Kaido raised his spiked club high again, not even having entered beastman form yet, and shouted, "Thunder Bagua!"

Facing the iron bar that was slamming down again, Whitebeard's left fist, crackling with shockwaves, met the attack with a powerful punch.

boom! !

The air was instantly shattered, and a spiderweb-like network of cracks spread out.

With a deafening crash, the large ship finally gave way.

The Moby Dick, which had carried the Whitebeard Pirates across mountains and rivers for decades, finally exploded at this moment.

The Whitebeard Pirates' officers were scattered by the violent shockwave.

Whitebeard's legs slammed heavily to the ground, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the three people who remained motionless in the sky.

At that moment, Whitebeard suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the Golden Lion and his group have no intention of making a move.

In that case, as long as I can hold off Kaido until the Straw Hat crew arrives, everyone will be safe and sound!
Thinking this, the shockwaves wrapped around the naginata suddenly became even more turbulent.

but.

"Zehahaha! In that case, Kaido, Whitebeard is yours to handle!"

Teach crashed to the ground, a small bag slung across his waist, his eyes brazenly surveying the Whitebeard Pirates' officers around him.

"As for me, hehehe! Let's take care of these guys!"

Whitebeard turned around in horror upon hearing those words, "Teach! What the hell are you trying to do, you bastard!"

"Whitebeard, do you dare to look around in front of me?!"

The iron rod, imbued with powerful and domineering energy, slammed down again.

Whitebeard had no choice but to immediately raise his sword to meet the attack.

Oh no, it's completely impossible to go and help Marco and the others!
"Mommy mommy!"

In the sky, Charlotte Linlin laughed heartily, her laughter filled with malice. "You're finished, Whitebeard! That bastard Teach isn't like Rocks at all; he's incredibly despicable!"

"Hahaha! Thanks for the compliment!"

Ti chuckled strangely, looking at the members of the Whitebeard Pirates, "So, who's going to be the first to die?"

"I'll hold this guy off!"

As the blue flames soared, Marco instantly took flight.

With his arms forming fiery wings, Marco swept across the sky like a whirlwind, his right claw wreathed in powerful Armament Haki, and he kicked directly at Teach.

No matter how powerful he is, I can hold him off for a while with my own abilities!
"Crane Claw!"

but.

"Hahaha!"

Teach's lips curled into a mocking smile as he raised his left hand, black mist rising from his palm.

"Dark Water!"

Black mist suddenly swirled out of Teach's hands like a vortex.

"Forehead!!"

Marco, who had just leaped forward, instantly felt his body lose control and flew directly towards Teach's hand.

What's going on? What did this guy do?
Marco couldn't understand it.

In that instant, all he could do was use the force of being pulled towards him to deliver a powerful kick to Teach's chest.

but.

"so hard!"

Marco's expression changed abruptly; his claws couldn't penetrate Teach's imposing chest at all!
Beneath that imposing aura lies something ridiculously hard!
What's going on? Isn't this guy a Mythical Zoan type Cerberus Devil Fruit user?

Before Marco could even think of anything, Teach had already grabbed his shoulder.

Then, without any mercy, a punch imbued with two colors of Haki slammed heavily onto Marco's head.

"Forehead--"

Even though he had used his Haki to defend himself at this critical moment, Marco still lost consciousness before he could even scream.

His head was so badly dented from Teach's punch.

"Marco!!"

Vista screamed when he saw this, "Why did you cancel your power?!"

The blue flames enveloping Marco vanished the instant he was hit!

Without the blue flame, even Marco wouldn't be able to recover from his injuries!
"It's still alive! Its vitality is truly remarkable. No wonder it's a phoenix!"

Teach grinned and raised his fist again.

"Marco!!"

Screaming, the Whitebeard Pirates' officers rushed over like madmen.

Not to mention them, even Whitebeard, who was entangled with Kaido, couldn't help but turn around and shout, "Marco!"

"I told you, don't look around! Roaring Thunder Eight Trigrams!!" The iron rod instantly shattered the air, sending the white-bearded man who was rushing back to defend flying.

"..."

In the sky, the golden lion watched silently.

"Hahaha! Don't rush! It's not your turn yet!"

Teach glanced at the Whitebeard Pirates officers who were approaching him.

Black mist spread out from beneath his feet, instantly turning the surrounding area of ​​several hundred meters into a black abyss.

"Dark acupoint!"

Everything covered by this darkness is being swallowed up.

Crops, rivers, houses, fragments of the Moby Dick—everything was being squeezed by an invisible force and then plunged into utter darkness.

"What's this!"

The Whitebeard Pirates' officers who rushed into this dark area screamed in agony.

Their legs also sank into darkness, and they felt their bodies being squeezed by an invisible force.

The bones are about to be crushed!

"Get out!!"

Fencing fencer Vista shouted at the top of his lungs, extremely anxious.

Although I really want to save Marco, now more people are in danger.

However, while getting in is easy, escaping is not so simple.

It's true that Dark Water can only be used to capture ability users, but actively entering the darkness is another matter entirely.

The Whitebeard Pirates, their bodies engulfed in darkness, were being dragged into the darkness by a powerful force.

While the Whitebeard Pirates were locked in a stalemate.

"Farewell, Marco the Phoenix!"

Teach laughed and threw a punch.

Marco, who had already lost consciousness, was unable to defend himself; the punch almost pierced through his chest.

Although it didn't penetrate, the surging domineering aura had completely destroyed Marco's internal organs.

"Hahaha! Hurry up, hurry up!"

Teach chuckled and pulled an apple from the bag he was carrying.

Then, the Dark Water was activated.

"You bastard! Marco!"

Noticing this, Vista roared, his domineering aura surging as he forcefully broke free from the darkness and leaped into the air, drawing a trajectory as his twin blades hurtled towards Teach.

He is not alone.

Diamond Joz, with its immense power capable of shaking mountains, also broke free from the black hole's gravity and leaped up, hurtling towards Teach like a falling meteorite.

Teach didn't even bother to look at them, just grinning as he stared at the blue Devil Fruit in his hand.

Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan Type, Phoenix Mode, here it is!
While examining the fruit, Teach casually tossed aside the already lifeless Marco.

Then, in his empty hand, the black energy condensed into a black sphere.

"Dark Emperor!"

He hurled the black sphere at both Vista and George.

The black sphere suddenly exploded, and the dense darkness that almost blotted out the sky swallowed up the two top officers of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Marco! Vista! Joz!!"

The white-bearded man, his head bleeding profusely, suddenly shuddered.

"Whitebeard! Die!!"

The roaring monster hurled the iron bar at it.

"You scum!!!"

His children were hurt, and in that instant, the old father's anger transformed into an unstoppable force.

Whitebeard doesn't use Life Return, but at this moment, his anger allows his willpower to explode to the maximum!

The domineering aura wrapped around the naginata and the shockwave surged like never before.

boom! !

With a deafening roar, the sky shattered!
Kaido's massive body was thrown backward by the shock.

But the man was indeed laughing maniacally, "Yes! That's more like it, Whitebeard! This is the kind of power you should have!"

Whitebeard, however, completely ignored Kaido and roared as he charged directly at Teach.

"Hehehe! It's too late, Whitebeard!"

Teach laughed heartily, "You can't change anything now!"

With a wave of his left hand, Jozu, who had been swallowed up, was pulled out of the darkness.

Even with his body transformed into diamond, he was crushed by terrifying power, causing cracks to spread across his body.

The moment Teach grabbed Jozu, the Dark-Dark Fruit power activated again, and the diamond marks on Jozu's body disappeared, leaving only deep wounds.

Then, Teach slammed the man into the massive blade that Whitebeard was bringing down.

"You despicable bastard!!"

Enraged, Whitebeard could only abruptly land on his right foot, forcibly stopping his forward momentum. At the critical moment, his naginata grazed past Jozu's side and slammed heavily into the ground.

In an instant, a huge chasm split open in the earth, and the roaring, domineering aura and shockwaves tore everything apart, even the dark hell created by Teach was directly pierced through.

"Hahaha! Dark water!"

Teach instantly switched to beastman mode, casually stuffing the Phoenix Fruit into his pocket while simultaneously activating Dark Water with his left hand.

Before Whitebeard could even retract his downward-slashing sword, he was already pulled towards the other side by the force.

But this man was a veteran of countless battles. He released his naginata with his right hand and, with an aura of dominance and shockwave, threw a punch at Teach.

boom!
Whitebeard's fist collided heavily with Teach's left hand.

“Ow! That hurts!”

Teach screamed in a spineless manner.

The one whose expression truly changed was Whitebeard.

The power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit has disappeared?
His fist was instead grabbed by Teach's hand!

then.

"Take this, Whitebeard!"

As he screamed in agony, a dark substance wrapped around Teach's right hand. This strange substance was composed of Armament Haki, Conqueror's Haki, the black mist of the Dark-Dark Fruit, and the black flames of the Cerberus Fruit!
Teach then swung his black fist and slammed it hard into Whitebeard's chest.

The darkness suddenly exploded.

"Forehead!!"

Even someone as powerful as Whitebeard was struck by this punch, causing him to spit blood from his mouth and his face to turn as pale as paper in an instant.

"Hahaha! Whitebeard, you're finished—"

Teach laughed triumphantly, but the laughter was interrupted the next moment as Whitebeard kicked him in the face with his right foot when he wasn't paying attention.

Overjoyed, Teach rolled away like a gourd.

However, Whitebeard didn't have time to pursue the attack.

"Wow!"

After kicking Teach away, he couldn't help but clutch his chest and spit out another mouthful of blood.

If he hadn't grabbed the naginata and used it to prop himself up on the ground in time, he might have knelt down.

"Dad——"

Covered in blood, Joz struggled to lift his head.

Oh no, that bastard Teach's attack triggered Dad's illness.

"Hehehe! Whitebeard! Take this!"

A thunderclap exploded from one side.

The raging black lightning almost covered half the sky, and the enormous monster came through the air, its own voice unable to keep up with its speed.

Kaido, now in his beastman form, held up his wolf fangs, his face beaming with excitement.

"Great Weed Thunder Gossip!"

Whitebeard's body trembled slightly, but he turned around instantly.

Is this the end of it?

"I'm Whitebeard!!"

Roaring, Whitebeard coughed up blood as he raised his long sword and retaliated fiercely.

boom! !

In an instant, a huge gap was blown open in the earth, and everything around it was blown away.

The Whitebeard Pirates, who were being swallowed by the dark passage, were unexpectedly saved and flown away.

"what?"

The moment they collided, Kaido's excitement vanished, replaced by deep astonishment and resentment.

There was a brief moment of stalemate when the naginata collided with the iron rod.

But the next moment, Whitebeard spat out another mouthful of blood, and the naginata was forced to retreat, while the spiked club slammed heavily into Whitebeard's chest.

Whoosh! !

Whitebeard's towering figure was sent flying by Kaido's single blow.

"Whitebeard!! What are you doing?!"

Kaido roared in frustration.

"Hahaha! Well then, that's the end of it!"

In the direction Whitebeard flew off to, Teach, who had just been kicked away, leaped up laughing, his right fist once again enveloped by a writhing darkness.

In the sky, the golden lion sighed, "Newgate, even a man like you can't defeat time?"

Charlotte Linlin's smile faded slightly.

"Hey! Teach!"

Kaido roared furiously as he watched Teach leap into the air, "What are you doing!"

"Hahaha! Of course, it's time to end all of this!"

Tichy threw a powerful punch.
