"That magma meteor shower has all been blocked, it's really too strong..."
"Is this the New World Yonko pirate crew? It's really too strong!"
"However, the Navy's plan is indeed very ingenious, trapping the pirates in the bay, but I didn't expect that this kind of situation would actually occur. Navy Headquarters really miscalculated."
Because the video Den Den Mushi of Buggy and the others wasn't too close, the picture quality wasn't too strong, but most of the situation was broadcast, of course, because Buggy was in the bay, so the situation inside the Navy plaza couldn't be captured.
At most, they could only capture the top of the city wall, and the execution platform's location.
"This 'Death God' is really strong, even the Navy admirals can't stop him. The Whitebeard Pirates are actually hiding such a great Buddha. Navy Headquarters really miscalculated this time."
Because Akira had killed Urouge on Skypiea, the Eleven Supernovas in the original story had now become the Ten Supernovas.
However, like in the original story, their strengths were all very strong, and they were outstanding among the rookies.
At this time, they were also gathered in the Sabaody Archipelago, watching this shocking and outrageous Paramount War.
The one who had made the exclamation was Hawkins, one of the Ten Supernovas, the 'Magician'. He was holding a divination card in his hand, constantly divining, and said, "According to the original probability, the Whitebeard Pirates' chances of winning were less than 10%, but after this 'Death God' appeared, the Whitebeard Pirates' chances of winning actually reached 30%, strange."
"Captain Hawkins, this 'Death God' is indeed powerful. He doesn't seem to be very old, but his strength is already comparable to a Navy admiral. I'm afraid he's the number two figure in the Whitebeard Pirates."
Hawkins said calmly, "It's hard to say about other things, but what the Whitebeard Pirates' final result will be depends on Whitebeard and this Death God."
"Hehe, the New World is indeed the world that pirates yearn for the most. It's indeed full of powerhouses like clouds. Just looking at this Whitebeard Pirates, you can already tell. Whether it's the division commanders, or those captains, each and every one of them is as strong as a monster. Killer, this is the world that we yearn for. Making a name for ourselves in the New World is our goal, you agree, right?"
At a viewing platform, the members of the Kid Pirates were gathered here. Eustass Kid said with great excitement.
Killer, who was next to him, also nodded and said, "Yeah, the pirates of the New World are indeed terrifying. Those people we encountered before can't be compared to these guys at all, especially the Whitebeard Pirates' division commanders. I'm afraid every one of them is stronger than us."
Kid said, "After all, it's a New World Yonko pirate crew, but we will definitely be stronger than them in the future."
Although Kid was relatively arrogant, and was even the number one among the Ten Supernovas, he also knew very well that he could still act as a bully in the first half of the Grand Line, but after arriving in the New World, he was just a rookie, lacking a lot of seniority, not to mention comparing himself to the pirate captains of the Yonko pirate crews.
"That 'Death God', we must remember him well. As long as he doesn't die, he will definitely become a big shot in the New World in the future, maybe he'll even become our great enemy." Kid said with a solemn expression.
He was still filled with apprehension towards Akira, this legendary figure, and even felt that Akira would definitely shine in the future.
Trafalgar Law said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Straw Hat-ya would actually release this monster from Impel Down. I've heard that this Death God harmed Doflamingo a lot back then. No wonder Doflamingo couldn't wait to kill him just now."
The other Supernovas were also looking at the war on the big screen with bright lights in their eyes. Each and every one of them was a person with ambition. This war would definitely change the situation of the world, so they all wanted to see what the final result would be.
"Akira is still the same as back then, his strength is getting stronger and stronger."
Rayleigh, seeing Akira disrupt the Navy's plan, leading the Whitebeard Pirates out of the predicament, couldn't help but say.
Shakky, however, said, "Don't be too optimistic. Just like you said before, Navy Headquarters isn't that easy to deal with. Sengoku and the others are all old guys. It's impossible for them to have their formation disrupted by Akira alone. Although the Navy doesn't seem to have a big advantage right now, don't forget that that's Marineford, the Navy Headquarters' home field. And have you discovered a problem?"
Rayleigh asked strangely, "Discovered what problem?"
Shakky said, "It's Akira, something's a little off about him."
Rayleigh asked, "What's off about Akira? I think he's doing great."
Shakky said, "It's precisely because you can't see anything wrong with him that it's off. In our impression, Akira isn't the kind of person who only knows how to defend all the time. But from the time he appeared until now, he's mostly been passively defending, rather than actively attacking. This is completely different from his previous actions."
Rayleigh said with a light "Eh", "Now that you say it, it's really true. Back then, when he snatched Roger's body, he was still so young, but he dared to rush up alone. Compared to that time, he is indeed a bit more stable today; however, there's nothing wrong with that, right? After all, today is different from back then. This is war, a war between two major forces. So far, this kind of conservatism of his is more advantageous to the Whitebeard Pirates than him recklessly charging forward."
Shakky said, "No, I don't think so. What the Whitebeard Pirates are lacking right now is someone who can make a final decision. Whitebeard is being watched, he has no chance at all, so Akira should be the one to rush up at this time. But he didn't do that. On the contrary, he let Little Luffy take the lead, to attract the Navy's attention. This isn't his personality."
Shakky's insight couldn't be said to be anything but sharp. She saw Akira's intentions at once. He did indeed intend to create opportunities for Luffy, but it wasn't like Shakky thought, using Luffy to draw the Navy's attention. It was just that the opportunity for Luffy to save Ace was greater than his.
Rayleigh said, "I think Akira definitely has other plans. Little Luffy rescued him from Impel Down. He can't be the kind of ungrateful person. I think it's possible that he feels that his target is too big, so he chose to let Little Luffy take action, right?"
Actually, what Shakky and Rayleigh said were both correct, but they didn't understand Akira's plans. For him, the most difficult thing now wasn't how to rescue Ace, but how to safely leave Marineford with everyone after Ace was rescued.
Leaving was the most difficult thing, because he knew that not only did the Navy not want them to leave, but the Blackbeard Pirates were also hidden behind them. Blackbeard's goal was the Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability, so he would definitely not let the Whitebeard Pirates leave easily.
Seeing that the people of the Whitebeard Pirates were diligently rushing towards the plaza, Sengoku's expression was constantly changing. This was a test of his choice. Should he choose to execute ahead of schedule under the eyes of the world, or should he not make this decision for the sake of Navy Headquarters' reputation?
In the end, Sengoku still made a decision. Compared to Navy's reputation, the result of the war was more important. So what if people knew the Navy's strategy? So what if he violated the execution time? As long as he could execute Ace in the end, and annihilate the Whitebeard Pirates, everything would be worth it. At worst, he would take the blame alone in the end.
"I'll gamble!"
Sengoku made a decision in his heart. At this point, he couldn't afford to think too much. If he waited until he found Buggy and turned off the video Den Den Mushi, he might delay the time. In this time where every second counted, he had to make a quick decision.
Executing Ace could not only eliminate the Pirate King's bloodline, but it could also seriously strike the Whitebeard Pirates' morale. So, Sengoku immediately issued an order, shouting, "Prepare for the execution!"
With an order, the executioners standing on both sides of Ace immediately took action, holding the execution tools, and slashing down at Ace's head. If they hit, he would definitely die on the spot.
"Ace!"
Seeing that the Navy was actually preparing to execute ahead of schedule, all the pirates' expressions changed. Many pirates who had a good relationship with Ace shouted excitedly.
Whitebeard's expression also changed, staring intently at the execution platform.
"Ace!" Luffy also shouted excitedly.
"The Navy's gone crazy, there's still some time before the execution time, why are they executing now?"
"It's indeed a good decision, actually executing ahead of schedule so recklessly. It seems that the Whitebeard Pirates have given the Navy a lot of pressure."
"The Navy actually doesn't keep its word."
"So the Navy can also be so despicable."
Seeing that the Navy was actually preparing to execute, many viewers became excited. Some people felt that the Navy was despicable, but others felt that what the Navy was doing was right. They didn't need to abide by any promises when dealing with pirates.
Just as Ace was about to be killed, suddenly, a crescent-shaped blade of light flashed across the execution platform. The two executioners didn't even have time to react, and were about to be cut in half at the waist.
"Who is it!"
