Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

A little girl sitting quietly in the corner saw this and quietly picked up the stack of wanted posters, flipping through them one by one.

When the little girl flipped to the picture of Hancock in her Blackwing form, her eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of longing as she murmured.

"So handsome!"

indeed!

Although Hancock concealed her facial features with a special mask when she transformed into the Blackwing Demon form, her perfectly bewitching appearance still possessed an incredible beauty.

Furthermore, Hancock had already eaten the "Love-Love Fruit" at that time, so even in an unconscious state, she still exuded unparalleled charm.

At that moment, Hancock's black wings spread wide, stretching across the sky, were deeply reflected in the little girl's eyes, unconsciously arousing her longing and yearning.

[Chapter 184: The Suspicion of the Warring States Marshal]

Meanwhile, in another part of the New World, a huge ship shaped like a whale lay on the sea, with the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates flying high.

"The Lord of Hueco Mundo? Interesting. Has this ocean finally produced a man who openly rebels against the World Government?"

A bold voice echoed across the sea.

The world's strongest man, a man with the power to destroy the world, the legendary great pirate...

These titles, any one of which could shake the seas, are the titles of Newgate Edward, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, who now sits atop this whale-shaped pirate ship.

And now, sitting on his throne, "Whitebeard" Newgate Edward is laughing heartily at a stack of "Hueco Mundo" bounty posters, seemingly delighted that the sea is gradually becoming more exciting.

Marco, the "Phoenix," scratched his head as he looked at Whitebeard's smile and couldn't help but say something.

"Father, the Lord of Hueco Mundo's life and gender are unknown, so he may not necessarily be a man."

"Don't spoil the fun, you silly son..." Whitebeard said in a certain tone.

"He must be a man, perhaps even a man who has seen the truth of this ocean and acted upon it."

"Yes, yes, yes, Dad, if you think the Lord of Hueco Mundo is a man, then he is a man." Marco helplessly agreed with his often unreasonable father.

Whitebeard listened to Marco's helpless words, a slight smile playing on his lips, before muttering, "I wonder if this man is the one Roger was waiting for..."

Immediately, the white-bearded man burst into laughter and said, "Gurararara, if he really is that kind of interesting man, then we'll meet sooner or later, and then we'll know for sure."

“Is that so? If that’s the case, I’ll have others keep an eye on Hueco Mundo’s plans for Father as well,” Marco said upon hearing this.

“That kind of thing is not important at all. What’s important now is to have a sip of fine wine!” Whitebeard said.

"Can't……"

Marco shrugged and said, "The doctor said you need to start limiting your alcohol intake, Dad. The alcohol is already starting to affect your health."

"Foolish son, fine wine will never weaken a man; it will only give him the courage to roam the seas!"

Whitebeard reprimanded them in a stern tone, saying, "So... I'm in a good mood today, so I'm having a banquet! You stupid sons!"

As Whitebeard's voice echoed throughout the sea, all members of the "Whitebeard Pirates," whose fleet consisted of more than ten pirate ships, cheered.

"Really..."

Marco's expression twitched slightly, filled with helplessness.

"Alright, alright, Marco, Dad has already given the order, so that's all we can do. We'll have Dad quit drinking tomorrow."

Standing to the side, Joz laughed heartlessly.

Upon hearing this, Marco couldn't help but roll his dead fish eyes, fully aware that this was almost impossible.

only……

Marco looked at Whitebeard's imposing and majestic figure, as if he could shoulder all the challenges in the world. Compared to the other crew members who were immersed in the title of "strongest" that Whitebeard was carrying, Marco knew that Whitebeard's body had begun to show signs of aging and weakness.

……

In addition, other great pirates, such as Charlotte Linlin ("BIG MON") and Shanks ("Red-Haired"), also took notice of the Hueco Mundo organization, a previously completely unfamiliar entity.

In the eyes of the other pirates, bounty hunters, or ordinary people, everyone's attitude was completely different: some felt awe, some greed, some fear, and some worship...

However, one thing is certain: from then on, the "Hueco Mundo Organization" entered the world's view in an extremely brutal and undeniable manner.

……

The "Lord of Hueco Mundo," who appears mysterious and powerful in the eyes of the world, now has an extremely solemn expression, and his hands are trembling slightly with tension.

"Gurgle~"

Yan swallowed hard, still hesitating whether to push open the door in front of him.

Behind the door, waiting for me might very well be seven wolves...

"Come in, you little rascal!"

Just then, Marshal Sengoku's voice came from inside, and the door was opened from the inside, revealing Marshal Sengoku's figure in front of Arn.

Compared to seven years ago, Marshal Zhan Guo looked much older, having fully entered middle age. He held a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, but the sharp-eyed Ya En noticed that there were a few goji berries steeping in it.

Yann glanced to the side unnaturally, speaking as if he were a child who had just returned home after running away from home for a long time.

"Um... good morning, old man."

"Humph!"

Marshal Sengoku snorted coldly, glanced at the unharmed Yaen, and without saying a word, turned around and went back into the living room.

Ya'en smacked his lips and followed Marshal Sengoku inside.

"Speak!"

Marshal Zhan Guo sat on the sofa and spoke in a calm tone.

"What did you say?" Yann asked, feigning ignorance.

"Tell me about the Hueco Mundo organization, Corazon, the Op-Op Fruit, and Saint Musgard," Fleet Admiral Sengoku continued.

"Ah... Ah ha..."

Ya'en chuckled, looking puzzled, and said, "Old man, I don't quite understand what you mean. Haven't I already explained everything clearly?"

Marshal Sengoku glared at Ya'en and said, "Do you think I'd believe that it was all just a coincidence, you brat?"

"What a coincidence, old man..."

Arne, who had thought that Marshal Sengoku had some evidence, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a bitter face.

"As the saying goes, a hemp rope always breaks at its weakest point, and misfortune only finds those with a hard life. Alas, my life is just so bitter; I've been caught up in one event after another..."

"Fine, I'll assume those were all coincidences. But then explain to me how you defeated Doflamingo. Where did you get your power from?"

At this point, Marshal Sengoku's gaze turned serious as he watched every change in Ya'en's expression.

At first, Fleet Admiral Sengoku was merely surprised and pleased that Yann defeated Doflamingo.

However, when Corazon, the user of the "Silence-Silence Fruit," joined Hueco Mundo and suddenly acquired combat power at the level of a near-Admiral, Fleet Admiral Sengoku began to have doubts about Aon.

In particular, during Hueco Mundo's attack on the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, Yann once again happened to appear at the residence of Saint Musgard.

"The Hueco Mundo members who attacked the Holy Land Mary Geoise were not three, but four, and the last one is very likely Tefimo Yann."

Of course, Marshal Sengoku did not tell anyone about this suspicion, but instead chose to question Arn directly.

[Chapter 185 This brat deserves to be crippled]

It must be said that the question of the Warring States Marshal hit Yaon's Achilles' heel.

Because no one understands Aon's physical condition better than Marshal Sengoku, perhaps even Lieutenant General Tsuru might believe that Aon has grown up.

However, Marshal Sengoku knew very well that Aon's body had long since reached its limit and was impossible to grow, so his combat power should not have increased significantly.

That is why Fleet Admiral Sengoku doubted the source of Yann's strength in defeating Doflamingo.

Especially with the changes that occurred after Corazon joined Hueco Mundo as a comparison, Fleet Admiral Sengoku naturally developed this suspicion.

However, just as Marshal Sengoku was waiting for Aon's answer and had prepared for the worst, something completely unexpected happened to him.

"Clap clap clap..."

Large tears streamed down Yann's cheeks.

"Hey Hey hey……"

Seeing this, the Warring States Marshal immediately panicked and said somewhat helplessly, "You brat, you... just talk properly, why are you doing this..."

"without……"

Yaen raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, a smile appearing on his face, and said.

"Old man, I'm just so happy that I'm back alive to see you. It's really wonderful."

"you……"

Suddenly, the Warring States Marshal's heart felt as if it had been squeezed tightly, and his expression softened instantly. "You brat, just talk it out. What's with all the tears a man should shed?"

"Um……"

Yaen nodded vigorously, then sat down next to Marshal Sengoku and said.

"Old man, I don't want to go to sea anymore. Arrange an office job for me so I can stay by your side."

"What exactly happened?" Marshal Zhan Guo pressed.

"Ugh……"

A look of lingering fear crossed Yann's face as he spoke.

"My Devil Fruit power has awakened, it's very strong, very strong, but my stamina simply can't hold up. I feel... I've lost a lot of my life force in the battle against Doflamingo..."

After a pause, Yann spoke with a hint of timidity.

"Old man, I'm really worried that one day I'll leave you before you. What will I do then?"

In an instant, Marshal Zhan Guo didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the handsome and dashing Yan seemed to have aged considerably.

Is the power gained at the cost of sacrificing one's life force?

If that's the case, then everything seems to make sense.

For a moment, even Marshal Sengoku felt a pang of heartache for Aon. The other questions he had been thinking of asking Aon were now stuck in his mind, and he could no longer bring himself to ask them.

For example: whether Corazon was aware of the changes, whether Hueco Mundo still had anything to hide, and his role in the Mary Geoise incident, etc.

Finally, the Warring States Marshal breathed a sigh of relief and asked only one question.
