Third Person POV
Marineford, First Half of Grandline.
...
...
Luffy's skin began to turn purple again, as red runes reappeared on his body, encircled by flames on his back.
"What?!" Akainu was surprised to see Luffy transforming again.
Luffy said nothing and simply blasted the ground, Akainu's confidence quickly turning into a pained expression as his body was battered by Luffy, his bones beginning to break with his chest being hit.
'I don't have much time...' Luffy thought and quickly drew his sword, aiming to completely sever Akainu's head in slow motion, the entire place exploding just from his movement.
Akainu saw his death approaching at that moment, while Kuzan looked stunned at the development and even tried to get close, but it was already too late.
'Die...' Luffy said as his blade neared Akainu's neck, however, Akainu tried to use his last resort, exploding into lava like a volcano in all directions. Luffy saw this but continued, knowing the lava wouldn't hurt him.
The lava erupted everywhere at that moment and another explosion occurred, as a ball of lava shot into the distance, some of the own marines being hit by their admiral's attack, ready to be killed as they began to scream with the lava burning them.
In the midst of the chaos and what appeared now a lake of lava, was Luffy, with lava still dripping from his skin, but he didn't seem to care now, as his gaze fell to the ground, with a severed arm. 'He managed to dodge the attack at the last moment...' he continued staring at the arm, knowing he couldn't wait any longer, while Akainu appeared in the distance coming out of the lava ball, his arm bleeding.
In the last milliseconds of that second, Luffy exploded the ground as he flew towards the bay at high speed, passing by Akainu.
"Luffy!!!" Yamato exclaimed from Black Pearl amidst all the ships, as Luffy shot out of Marineford still rising like a missile before dropping towards the ship.
Luffy crashed onto the deck of the ship the next moment, exploding against the wood of the ship before rolling, barely able to move at this point.
"Luffy, are you okay???!!!" His crew quickly went to him as he lay on the ground looking up at the sky.
"It seems I'm just a bit tired..." Luffy commented, feeling completely drained of his akuma no mi powers at this moment and quite injured, his body no longer having any strength.
"LUFFYYY!!!" Hancock, Lucy, Nami, Vivi, Baby-5, Yamato, and even Bepo surrounded him, crying like children and hugging him the next moment.
"Hey, I need to breathe!" Luffy murmured with a muffled voice as there were many breasts in his face.
Meanwhile, Nojiko, Alvida, Lami, Reiju, Kuina, Robin were smiling with some tears of relief.
Ace, Zoro, Usopp, Jimbei, Hachi, Ivankov, and Marco, who had been teleported by Lami, had a half-smile on their faces, while Crocodile, Mr.1, Enel had an indifferent look. Hugo, Chouchou, and Chopper were still passed out.
"You can let him go, he's injured!" Shirahoshi in her giant form, exclaimed worriedly while the women seemed to come to their senses and began to move away from Luffy.
But then Shirahoshi's shadow of a hand appeared and picked him up from the deck before anyone could react, Luffy felt his body being lifted into the air before hitting the giant's face. "I'm so happy you're alive and well... Thank goodness!!" Shirahoshi began to cry, crushing Luffy against her face before she could start crying like a baby.
"You're crushing him!!!" Everyone exclaimed on the ship with a grimace, while Shirahoshi did exactly what she had told the women not to do.
A blue field began to expand, before Luffy disappeared from Shirahoshi's hands, as he appeared on the deck floor with Lami checking him, "I'm the only doctor here in the crew, I'll take care of him now." She warned as she began to assess Luffy's injuries, his body severely battered as he had long passed his limits.
Luffy did not complain, and his gaze shifted upwards, where Marineford still stood tall. "Stay alert, I'm sure someone will come, and it will probably be Kuzan." Luffy warned as it looked like someone had fallen from the square, heading towards the sea, with the ships moving away from the area, while the pirates from the fleet filled the ships left at the front of the bay.
"I'll head back to the Moby Dick." Marco announced and flew off to his companions.
As Luffy was being treated by Lami, Marco arrived on the ship, "Marco! What are we going to do now... the Poops..." Jozu said while all the commanders and crew members of the main ship looked at him waiting for some answer.
"We should wait, trust in Poops..." Marco spoke as explosions began to appear on the marine island, with cracks occurring and debris falling from the sky.
Kuzan finally fell and touched the water, while everyone noticed the sea starting to freeze. "Don't let the ice reach us..." Luffy requested as all the Akuma no mi users nodded.
"The sea is freezing!!!" the pirates of Whitebeard pointed to the ice beginning to approach them.
"What do we do, boss Buggy!!!" On the marine ship, the prisoners exclaimed in fear while Buggy just pointed the den den mushi transmitter and made a frightened grimace, praying to get out of there as soon as possible.
Ace, Usopp, Reiju, Baby-5, Nami, Vivi, Robin, Zoro, Hachi, and Enel quickly moved to the back of the ship, while the others who did not have very powerful long-range attacks, quickly began to launch all kinds of attacks the next moment, as the ice began to shatter and melt with the heat of the attacks the following moment.
This seemed to frustrate Kuzan on the other side, but he continued, freezing more as the attacks still continued preventing him from stopping the ships from moving away.
"Bepo... Do it now." Luffy requested while Bepo nodded.
He pointed towards Marineford flying, and while the marines were all in panic on the island at this moment, with the place bustling and two fights happening in the middle of them, they could do nothing but look on, but they were cornered, trying to protect themselves anywhere, but the place was chaotic. While they were already hundreds of meters from the ground, Coby was scared. He continued to hear voices in his head since he woke up from the fight with Lucy, feeling all the terror that people around him were feeling without understanding anything.
"What are we going to do, Coby? Are we going to die here??!!" Helmeppo said with a scared and distressed expression.
"Just make it stop," Coby murmured, touching his head.
The vice-admirals were trying to organize themselves amidst all this, two admirals were out of battle while Kuzan was down there trying to stop the pirates. There was no more victory for the marines; what they could do was try to save as many marines as possible.
"Come on, get everyone who is falling and put them in a safe place!!" Tsuru ordered while there was dried blood on her face.
They were trying to keep them safe until they could try to get out of this situation, but then, something happened. Marineford suddenly began to fall, this made everyone there immediately scared, feeling the ground beneath them in free fall.
Dragon was fighting against Garp and Sengoku, they stopped at that moment, while the severely injured fleet admiral looked in the distance, frustrated with it, and seriously looked at all the marines.
Even Whitebeard and Kaido, both injured, looked surprised. The ships continued to move away and everyone could see Marineford plummeting, while the whole world watched it, saying nothing, they just looked mesmerized by the sight trying to see how all this would end.
Explosions continued to happen at the site while Whitebeard used his power, this continued for a while as the place fell and then, suddenly, a blast of wind emerged with lightning and Luffy looked at it with attentive eyes, as he saw a small object fly into the sky at that moment, and it was his father escaping the place and crossing the sky.
Dragon's gaze returned to the same ship, which continued firing several explosive flashes on top of the ice that pursued them. Dragon and Luffy seemed to stare at each other at that moment, as the man in the sky gave a small smile and shot towards the horizon the next moment.
"We'll meet later, father." Luffy murmured softly.
Another explosion emerged as a dragon began to grow and fly into the sky. His gaze appeared frustrated, with bloodstains all over his face. He looked towards the ship, with Yamato inside, frustrated, as he had burned the vivre card connected to Luffy that had brought him here, so he could no longer pursue that pirate group without getting lost.
But with no choice, since Whitebeard was still there, he couldn't continue fighting and shot off towards the New World, trying to find Wano again. Another explosion arose with Whitebeard firing into the sky, as all the pirates under his flag opened their eyes and smiled broadly. He exploded onto the deck of the Moby Dick, causing the ship to sink slightly and then bounce back up a moment later with a bit of sway.
"My children!!!" Despite being injured and covered in blood, Whitebeard seemed quite animated as he exclaimed. "GURARARARARA! Looks like I'm back. The navy and Kaido wouldn't bring me down so easily!" he laughed and smiled at his crew.
"POOPPSSS!!! THANK GOODNESS!!!" All the ships with members of the pirates exclaimed while crying with joy that they had finally done it all.
Whitebeard smiled at his children, before heading back to the last ship there, the Black Pearl, which had protected everyone from Kuzan, who at this moment had given up, as he was concerned with Marineford falling at this moment.
"Now let's find a good place to talk!" Whitebeard said, as Marco approached to help him with his wounds.
The gaze of everyone, despite the joy, looked towards the falling structure of the navy. Luffy, being treated by Law, saw it with eyes that felt a bit sorry for the marines and thought of his grandfather. After all, most there were just marines following orders, and the navy also had its importance in combating really bad people on the seas.
Luffy turned to Bepo next to them. "Cushion the fall," he said at last.
Bepo nodded, while moving his arm again towards the structure, beginning to slow its falling speed. Kuzan was already prepared to create a layer of ice to minimize the fall, but in the end, Marineford landed silently in front of him, giving a small explosion as it landed on the earthen structure beneath the water.
Sengoku sighed with relief, but saw in the distance all the pirate ships leaving with frustration, this should have been the greatest display of the navy's power to the world, but it became the greatest shame in history, the navy was in a very delicate position under the gaze of the entire world.
Both the pirates of Whitebeard and the Straw Hat pirates, the revolutionaries, and the prisoners breathed a sigh of relief, finally moving away and distancing themselves from Marineford.
