Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 433 This isn't a battle, it's mowing the grass!

Edward Teach gave Marco a dismissive look.

He is the first division commander, ship's doctor, and "hidden second-in-command" of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Marco's strength is outstanding, even in the entire New World.

A horizontal comparison of the "second-in-command" of the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates.

Marco's bounty is even higher than that of Wildfire and Charlotte Katakuri!

Not to mention that Marco also possesses an extremely miraculous Mythical Zoan type Phoenix Fruit!

But "noise".

Edward Teach uttered those two words softly.

High in the sky, a flash of lightning appeared.

Edward Teach vanished from his spot in an instant, moving with lightning speed to close the distance to the downward-facing phoenix.

Marco.

His thick, sturdy right leg was raised high, and silver-white lightning wrapped and intertwined around it, turning it into a lightning-shimmering "silver thigh"!

Marco's bird-like face, enveloped in blue flames, was illuminated directly by the flashing lightning at this moment.

At the same time, Marco's ever-widening pupils were also illuminated.

"Wow, that's fast!"

Marco instinctively raised his left hand, following his battle-hardened fighting instincts, and used his forearm to block in front of him.

Almost in the next instant.

Edward Teach's right leg came crashing down on Marco like a powerful axe.

Electric current propulsion, electric light kick!

It was only for a moment.

Edward Titchina's right leg, enhanced with the extreme speed of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, landed on Marco's left forearm.

The immense force caused the latter's expression to change drastically in an instant.

click!

A crisp, cracking sound rang out.

Marco the Phoenix's left arm—or more precisely, the "bird wing" wreathed in burning blue flames—was kicked off by Edward Teach in a brutal manner.

Edward Teach's right leg, still brimming with power, continued its downward kick, cutting through everything in its path, and finally landing on Marco's chest.

Then, another series of cracking sounds, like firecrackers, rang out as bones broke.

Marco's bones broke countless times at that moment.

With Edward Teach's current physical abilities, coupled with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's boost to attack and speed, he could achieve great success.

The reason his kick didn't kill Marco outright was entirely due to the Phoenix Fruit's high HP!

Rao is so.

Marco transformed into a bird with broken wings, plummeting rapidly from the sky until he crashed into the depths of the Sky Garden, creating a deep crater in the ground.

boom!

Smoke and dust billowed into the sky.

Marco lay flat in the depths of the pit and coughed violently a few times.

However, thanks to the miraculous effects of the Phoenix Fruit, his injuries healed rapidly.

Even with severe injuries like broken bones, the Phoenix Fruit's blue flames—true name "Flame of Regeneration"—burned through the wounds, allowing the body to recover quickly.

"What a monster!"

Marco recalled the immense force he had just felt, and his left arm was still trembling slightly.

"Even my father in his youth probably couldn't compare to 'Second Generation,' right?"

Shocking as it may be.

Marco quickly climbed out of the pit and gently waved his left hand a few times. The arm that had been broken by a kick had now completely healed.

The regenerative ability of the Phoenix Fruit is just that powerful!

Before Marco could even fly out of the crater, a bolt of lightning shot directly into the dust and mist.

Using the invisible electromagnetic radar of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Edward Teach directly locked onto Marco's location, transformed into lightning, and rushed over to find the phoenix once again.

Upon seeing this, Marco was startled again.

He instinctively wanted to deploy a defensive posture.

But compared to Edward Teach's speed, Marco was just too slow, too slow!

Edward Teach suddenly appeared next to Marco.

He raised his right leg again;

Once again, it unleashed the "Electric Current Propulsion · Lightning Kick";

A quick, powerful kick struck Marco's body again.

boom!

The phoenix, which had just fallen from the sky like a meteorite, was kicked back into the sky by Edward Teach.

In mid-air, the silver-white arc of electricity, symbolizing the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, collided with the blue flames, representing the Phoenix Fruit, creating a dazzling array of sparks, like fireworks exploding.

But hidden within this breathtakingly beautiful scene lies a danger that could instantly kill an ordinary person.

Marco, who was flying backwards into the sky, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Pfft—The Phoenix Fruit represents an incredibly powerful regenerative ability, granting the user near-immortality and tenacious vitality."

However, this does not mean that the user of the Phoenix Fruit is immune to injury!

Obviously.

Edward Teach's kick just now has seriously injured Marco again!

however.

Under the healing power of the "Flame of Regeneration," Marco's injuries recovered rapidly.

The terrifying injuries that would have killed an ordinary pirate on the spot were quickly healed by the "Flame of Regeneration" of the Phoenix Fruit.

If Marco is given just a little more time, his injuries will be fully healed.

But Edward Teach was never merciful.

Then, another faint rumble of thunder sounded.

Edward Teach, who had just flashed into the dust and kicked Marco into the sky, transformed himself into lightning and soared into the sky once more.

Edward Teach followed the phoenix's flight path, skillfully dodging the scalding "phoenix blood," and once again arrived behind the phoenix.

Marco caught a glimpse of Edward Teach's raised right leg out of the corner of his eye, and felt a chill run down his spine.

"No? Here we go again!?"

The idea had just entered Marco's mind.

Edward Teach's "Lightning Kick" landed on the Phoenix's body once again.

boom! !

Edward Teach kicked Marco, then transformed into lightning, chasing after him and raising his leg again.

Bang bang bang-

Amidst the constant movement of silvery-white lightning.

The blue phoenix, resembling a sandbag, flew back and forth in mid-air, with blood occasionally falling from the sky onto the ground below.

The first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates was utterly powerless against Edward Teach, completely reduced to a punching bag being toyed with.

This sight caused the Whitebeard Pirates members around them to twitch their eyelids.

Marco is the second-in-command of the Whitebeard Pirates.

He is also the "second strongest member" of the Hundred-Bearded Pirates.

Edward Teach is a high-ranking officer in the Dawn Pirates.

At least within the Dawn Pirates, Edward Teach's status is inferior to that of the Red Dragon Emperor.

Both of them were high-ranking officers in the Emperor Pirates.

Even if the two have a bounty difference of several hundred million Berries.

But the gap shouldn't be this big, right?

The Whitebeard Pirates' morale wavered slightly at this moment.

Fortunately, not every "high-ranking official" behaves as badly as Marco.

Vista the Flower and Crocodile were evenly matched in their fight.

On the other side, the performance of the other "white-bearded" man was not much different from what people expected.

Edward Weevil, who had unleashed the power of the Mythical Zoan type Yama-warashi no Mi (Mountain Child Fruit), was already much taller than a normal person, and at this moment he transformed into a small giant.

He swung the giant sword in his hand, imbuing the blade with the flame power granted by the Mountain Child Fruit, and slashed repeatedly at the troublesome "bastard" in front of him.

After that "face-to-face mockery" just now.

Diamond Jozu did lose focus for a moment during the battle, but the defensive capabilities of his Glint-Glint Fruit are undeniable.

Even though Edward Weevil's strength has increased considerably compared to before.

However, they still couldn't break through Diamond Jozu's surface defenses.

As time goes by.

Once Diamond Jozu gradually adapted to Edward Weevil's increased power, he was even able to find time to counterattack, his diamond-like body crashing into the "Yamawara" in front of him like a cannonball.

However, Edward Weevil inherited the power of the young Whitebeard, making him a formidable opponent.

After consuming the Mythical Zoan type Yama-warashi no Mi (mountain child fruit), Weevil's strength level has also increased to some extent.

He couldn't break through Diamond Jozu's defenses.

But even Diamond Jozu couldn't defeat him.

For a time, the two were evenly matched.

Whitebeard's gaze shifted away from Vista and Diamond Jozu.

To be honest.

The three top officers of the Whitebeard Pirates did not perform very well.

Marco was completely reduced to a punching bag.

Flower Sword Vista and Diamond Jozu were also held back by their respective enemies.

And what about the other division commanders of the Hundred-Bearded Pirates?

Whitebeard surveyed the entire situation and felt a chill run down his spine. The Golden Lion II, carrying Sakura Ten and Wood Dry in his hands, moved nimbly through the Whitebeard Pirates like a butterfly flitting among flowers, as if he were in an empty field.

No pirate could withstand even a single move from him.

Every time Shiki II swings his sword, he takes the life of a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.

No pirate could force Shiki II to unleash a second sword strike!

This is not a fight at all.

This is just like mowing the lawn!

Not just the Golden Lion II,

The other members of the Dawn Pirates were also rapidly reaping the lives of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Whitebeard had no idea where these monsters had come from.

But all he saw was his "sons" dying one by one at the hands of these pirates.

The only area on the battlefield where the fighting could be described as "evenly matched" was the Storm Pirates' side.

Compared to the members of the Dawn Pirates.

The members of the Storm Pirates are still a bit too "young".

Girls like Nami, Robin, and Perona still haven't mastered "Haki".

Even though their respective Devil Fruit abilities are not weak.

However, their performance in such a large-scale war was not very good.

Fortunately, Yamato was like a loyal dog, firmly guarding Nami and the others, checking for any mistakes they made.

The white-bearded man observed Yamato from afar: the oni's long horns, the jet-black spiked club, and that rare Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit that allowed him to control ice...

Whitebeard almost thought he was seeing Kaido in his younger days!

Say something.

This oni girl, who is a bit too young, is actually no less powerful than Kaido of the Beasts in his youth!

Another incredibly strong newcomer.

Where did the White Dragon Emperor gather so many powerful crew members?

Whitebeard couldn't understand.

But he's almost at his breaking point!

This is not a war at all.

This was almost a one-sided massacre!
