Right at this moment...
"Everyone... stop right now."
A calm yet incomparably domineering voice swept across the entire battlefield!
Accompanying this voice was an overwhelming surge of Haki.
This aura shook the entire battlefield, covering the whole sea and the Marine Headquarters completely!
Under the pressure of this terrifying power, countless Marines dropped their weapons to the ground.
Some even began foaming at the mouth and collapsed unconscious!
This was Conqueror's Haki of the supreme level!
Everyone was stunned by this immense and terrifying presence!
"Who is it? What great figure has arrived?!"
Countless people were guessing.
The pirates, meanwhile, were filled with wild excitement.
It was obvious that whoever had arrived was on their side!
In the center of the battlefield, Whitebeard suddenly let out his signature laugh: "Gurararara!"
"El... I knew you would come!"
Whitebeard's words sent the entire battlefield into a frenzy!
The pirates cheered in disbelief and joy.
"It's El! It's Lord El himself!"
"The legendary great pirate! We can win now!"
"More than just win... it's time for the Marines to meet their end!"
However, there were some younger, inexperienced pirates who didn't know who he was.
For example, Luffy, who looked at Marco in total confusion.
"Who is El?"
Marco looked at him, speechless. "You don't know who El is?!"
"He is practically the strongest pirate in the world! A legendary figure from the same era as Father and Roger!"
Luffy's eyes widened. Someone that strong?!
So he's basically another Emperor of the Sea!
He said this to Marco.
Marco smiled meaningfully. "An Emperor... you are vastly underestimating El! You'll understand soon enough."
While the pirates were cheering wildly... Panic began to spread among the Marines!
Another great pirate had arrived!
And not just any pirate... but the most famous and powerful legend of them all.
Do we even stand a chance anymore?!
The first ones to react were the Warlords of the Sea.
Doflamingo sensed El's Haki and immediately declared: "My apologies, but I can no longer participate in this battle!"
The other Warlords were stunned.
"What are you talking about?" Boa Hancock asked, confused.
Just moments ago, Doflamingo had been fighting very actively; why did he suddenly want to quit?
Even Mihawk looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Doflamingo gave a bitter smile. "The man coming here... is no ordinary person. You will understand very soon!"
With that, he used his Devil Fruit powers to fly away into the distance.
Another Warlord, Gecko Moria... Also dropped his act immediately.
Previously, he had pretended to obey the Navy's orders...
But during the fighting, he had been holding back the whole time.
He hadn't defeated a single pirate; instead, he had deliberately let many of them pass him by.
Now, he laughed out loud.
"My captain has arrived. I'm done pretending!"
He jumped away, instantly switching sides.
Just a moment ago, the Navy had the support of five Warlords...
Suddenly, that number dropped to only three!
But that wasn't even the worst part.
Up on the execution platform... Sengoku's face was dark as thunder!
He had prepared for so many possibilities... But the one thing he never expected was that El would actually step in and join the fight!
Just thinking about him made the entire Marine Headquarters tremble in fear!
In an instant, memories flooded back to him...
Of that time long ago, when the four strongest men of the Marines had to beg El for mercy!
Even the three Admirals were shocked, their eyes wide open.
"It's El... do you remember this Haki?!"
Aokiji spoke to the other two Admirals.
Usually the calmest and most composed men, even they now felt a sense of panic rising within them.
"Stay calm... so many years have passed. We aren't necessarily outmatched by him anymore!" Akainu gritted his teeth and said.
Kizaru, however, remained unusually silent.
BOOM!
Following the immense pressure...
El's figure descended instantly, landing firmly on the deck of the Moby Dick!
He stood right beside Whitebeard.
"How are you holding up? Are you alright?" El asked.
At this moment, Whitebeard's injuries were not yet critical... He had only suffered a stab wound to the chest inflicted by one of his own men.
Whitebeard laughed heartily: "Gurararara! El... I truly didn't expect you to actually come all this way!"
He was deeply moved in his heart.
Attacking Marine Headquarters had been his own reckless decision...
Yet El had traveled such a great distance just to come and help him. He truly was a man of his word.
When the pirates finally saw El's true appearance, they cheered even louder!
"Is that really El?! He looks so young!"
"He seems like he's only in his twenties!"
"Is he really from the same generation as Whitebeard?!"
Upon seeing him, the first thought in everyone's mind was his age.
A great pirate whose reputation had echoed across the seas for decades... yet he looked no older than twenty.
It was absolutely unbelievable!
"El... it has been a long time!"
Sengoku stood on the execution platform...
And spoke coldly.
El lifted his eyelids and glanced at him.
"Oh... it's you, brat."
"We haven't met in a few years... and you've grown quite bold, haven't you?"
Facing such a powerful figure as the Fleet Admiral of the Navy...
El acted as if Sengoku wasn't worth his attention at all.
