Marco finally couldn't hold on any longer and took out a Senzu Bean.
The blue flames in his hand were almost sputtering out, yet they still hadn't fully charged.
After tossing the Senzu Bean into his mouth, Marco stamina was restored and he continued to pour energy into his Zanpakuto at full throttle.
Soon, everyone exchanged their Zanpakutos and began charging each other's weapons!
After all, the energy infused into the Zanpakutos didn't conflict with one another, meaning the more diverse the energy infused, the more terrifying the damage it could cause!
Twenty minutes later, the Zanpakutos in the hands of these division commanders were finally fully charged.
Marco weighed his Zanpakuto in his hand, his heart filled with astonishment.
During the final moments of charging his Zanpakuto, he had sensed the immense and chaotic energy within it.
This time, the energy infused into his Zanpakuto was even greater than the last strike he had used against Kaido, That meant the next strike from his Zanpakuto would undoubtedly be even more powerful!
Although Marco was thrilled, a hint of worry lingered in his heart.
Thankfully, he was the master of this Zanpakuto.
If he were its enemy, he would never be able to withstand such a blow, Even if he didn't die he would surely be severely injured!
The others shared the same thought.
A couple of division commanders who had initially underestimated Pryce because he was a scientist had now completely changed their attitudes!
It wasn't just because of Pryce strength—after all, only a few had seen him in action. Although Pryce had demonstrated Conqueror's Haki in front of everyone, these seasoned veterans had seen countless users of Conqueror's Haki before.
They were impressed but not awestruck.
This time, however, they finally realized that regardless of Pryce actual strength, just this Zanpakuto alone made him an opponent they could never defeat!
'It seems we must build a good relationship with Pryce from now on!' one division commander thought, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, still shaken.
Caesar, on the other hand, watched the scene of the division commanders and Whitebeard charging their Zanpakutos with excitement!
Although he had been with the Whitebeard Pirates for some time and had used the Time Chamber, Caesar strength hadn't improved much due to his focus on Pryce explosive tags and Zanpakuto projects.
However, his fascination with such weapons of destruction hadn't diminished in the slightest!
Caesar recalled a large-scale weapon of mass destruction he had once invented—the Monster, Smiley!
Although that creature could consume gas candies to protect itself and even turn an entire island into a land of death, it still paled in comparison to the Zanpakuto Pryce had created.
As the inventor of Smiley, Caesar knew how difficult it was to cultivate such a gas monster.
After spending time crafting Zanpakutos, he realized that while the principles behind them were far more complex and challenging, without Pryce guidance he would never have been able to create one.
But once mastered, crafting a Zanpakuto became as smooth as flowing water!
Moreover, using Smiley against Kaido was completely ineffective.
But Pryce Zanpakuto had forced Kaido to flee in defeat!
This time, if Kaido were to face two or three Zanpakuto, even in his prime, he would likely suffer a significant damage.
This is the difference between me and Pryce!
Although Caesar felt a bit uneasy, he got excited when he thought about how he could now continuously learn advanced scientific techniques from Pryce.
Whitebeard was also feeling exhausted.
This was the first time he had continuously unleashed his Conqueror's Haki for such a long period.
Now, every Zanpakuto in the hands of the division commanders had been infused with his Conqueror's Haki!
However, looking at the dozen or so Zanpakuto that had been fully charged and were undoubtedly powerful, Whitebeard knew that his efforts had not been in vain.
As he kept examining his Zanpakuto, Whitebeard couldn't help but wish he could use a teleportation talisman to head straight to Wano Country Onigashima, Kaido territory and give him a slash!
"Marco, and the rest of you, get ready. Gather thirty trusted elite fighters from your divisions, those whose strength is second only to yours, on the deck!"
"We're going to distribute these Zanpakuto!" Whitebeard said seriously as he caressed his Zanpakuto.
"Pops, isn't this a bit too much of a fuss?" Marco stretched lazily, speaking somewhat indifferently.
"Nonsense!"
"This matter must be properly communicated. The importance and power of the Zanpakuto must be clearly explained to them!"
"And allow other fighters to watch, to motivate them. Only by reaching a higher level of strength will they have the chance to obtain their own Zanpakuto!" Whitebeard slammed the table, glaring as he spoke.
Marco, startled by Whitebeard stern attitude, stuck out his tongue and immediately led the division commanders out.
Suddenly, a Den Den Mushi in Caesar pocket rang.
"Caesar, you're really something!"
"You've forgotten all about me since you went to Pryce!" Doflamingo angry voice came through the Den Den Mushi.
"The problem is, the things you want are strictly forbidden by Pryce and Captain Whitebeard from being leaked!" Caesar replied helplessly.
"Enough with the excuses, I'm coming to see you myself!" Doflamingo hung up abruptly.
"Caught in a dilemma?" Whitebeard chuckled from the side.
"After all, we were once partners, but I don't want to betray Pryce!" Caesar sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.
"Let him come. On my ship, a mere Warlord won't be able to cause any trouble!" Whitebeard waved his hand and walked out of the laboratory.
Soon, on the deck of the Moby Dick, thirty elite fighters from various divisions had gathered.
Each of these fighters was among the strongest in their respective divisions, second only to their division commanders!
"What's this all about?" A top fighter from the first division asked, puzzled.
"Indeed, it's so sudden. Is there something important?"
"I was still training in the Time Chamber when I was called out!" Jozu deputy also nodded, speaking with a hint of helplessness.
However, since it was their respective division commanders who had summoned them, they naturally didn't dare to disobey!
Soon, Marco, leading the group of division commanders, stepped to the front of the crowd.
