Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp arrived on a simple ship, clearly delivered by Dragon, whose own injuries weren't fully healed.
He was there to ensure Luffy's safety—after all, he was his son.
Even Dragon's ambition wouldn't allow him to abandon his son.
White Dove Ryuya turned his gaze to Luffy, a smirk playing on his lips.
"Unexpected guests.
Truly surprising!"
He then turned to Garp.
"Garp-san, if I'm not mistaken, that's your grandson."
Garp frowned.
"White Dove, your job is to contain Zero.
You're the only one who can effectively restrain him."
Garp clearly wanted to prevent Ryuya from focusing on Luffy.
But White Dove wasn't satisfied with this arrangement.
He bit his thumb, letting blood flow.
His hands moved rapidly, then slammed onto the ground.
Tiny characters spread, creating a cloud of smoke.
Garp and Tsuru were surprised to see a fire dragon emerge from the smoke—the dragon Ryuya had bound to himself on the island.
Ryuya commanded, "Take care of them."
The fire dragon roared, spreading its wings and attacking the Dawn Birds' pirates.
As mentioned before, these pirates were merely expendable pawns.
The fire dragon targeted Law, who had shed his youthful appearance, replaced by a hardened expression.
He felt the dragon's oppressive presence.
Nojiko, appearing beside Law, said, "I think someone else needs your help more right now."
Law saw Corazon fleeing, not from the Marines or Dawn Birds, but from a flock of birds attacking him.
Remembering their last encounter, Law smirked, placing his hands together, and whispered, "Room!"
He appeared before Corazon, instantly dispelling the birds.
Corazon, overjoyed to see Law again, was astonished.
Meanwhile, Luffy's group charged forward.
Being a third party, they were initially ignored by both the Marines and the Dawn Birds.
Then, Onigumo blocked Luffy.
"To save Ace, you must defeat me."
As Onigumo appeared, an arm emerged from the ground, followed by more, forming a circle.
The arms dissipated, scattering petals as Robin, in a black cloak, appeared.
"You must be Ace's brother! I'll help. You keep moving!"
Robin unleashed her awakened abilities, the ground sprouting countless arms that intertwined, engulfing the area and attacking Onigumo with dark Armament Haki.
"Gigantesco Mano!"
Luffy was shocked.
He hadn't expected such a powerful ally.
"Thank you! You're a good person."
Robin swiftly defeated Onigumo.
Luffy's group pressed onward, only to encounter another force—Whitebeard!
"Admiral! The Gate of Justice is open!"
Ryuya's group had arrived from the sky, ignoring the Gate of Justice.
Luffy's group had been delivered by Dragon, who, as a Devil Fruit user and former Marine, knew the layout of Marineford.
But Whitebeard couldn't do that.
They had to open the Gate of Justice themselves.
Despite his age, Whitebeard, sharing Roger's ideals, had arrived to save Ace, knowing that Ace's death would close the era Roger had opened with his life.
"Roger's son! Whitebeard's here to save you! Kurararara!"
His laughter echoed through Marineford.
Sengoku's face changed.
He hadn't expected Whitebeard.
Even Ryuya was surprised.
Sengoku turned to White Dove Ryuya…
