Chapter 557: War Begins

Mariford.

The execution platform built.

Ace half-knelt on the ground, and two executors stood upright beside him.

Sengoku stood in front of Ace, looking at the sea in the distance.

Under the execution platform.

The three admirals were sitting on seats made of gold, and countless warships were being prepared in front of them.

On both sides were countless navy officers participating in the execution ceremony.

This time, the entire navy was dispatched.

Sengoku's heart became heavy. He originally wanted to let some reporters record this moment.

But this war was completely unknown, so he gave up this plan.

This war will also determine the survival of the navy.

Ace's identity is no longer important.

Or rather.

The one who really needs Ace to die with the correct identity is the World Government.

Not the Navy.

Looking at the sea area that has not moved yet.

Sengoku turned his head and looked at Ace.

"Ace, are you still not going to admit it? Your real father."

Ace raised his head and looked at Sengoku and roared.

"My father is Whitebeard!!"

He would never admit that the bastard was his father. He only had one father.

That was Whitebeard.

Zhan Guo sighed and sat cross-legged next to Ace.

"Actually, no matter what you say, the newspapers will report your identity as the son of the Pirate King the next day."

Ace looked at Zhan Guo in astonishment.

Doesn't he need to admit this?

Looking at the astonished Ace, Zhan Guo explained: "If there are reporters, you do need to admit it, so that we can strengthen the prestige of our navy."

"But we didn't invite reporters in this time."

"Because this war has nothing to do with you."

Zhan Guo's voice was not loud, and only Ace and the two executioners next to him heard it.

The two executioners looked straight ahead with expressionless faces.

They dared not intervene in such matters.

Ace still looked dazed and looked around.

Why did they make such a big scene for him?

Who did he offend?

Zhan Guo looked at Ace puzzled and raised his head to the distant ocean.

"The main purpose of this war is actually for the father you mentioned."

"Whitebeard, kill him here completely."

Ace's pupils shrank, and the power of his whole body boiled, trying to break free from the shackles on his body.

He would never allow himself to kill Whitebeard.

But the feeling of powerlessness in his body made it impossible for him to break free from the shackles on his body.

Zhan Guo did not look back, and when he heard the movement, he knew what Ace was doing and said aloud.

"This is completely made of seastone, you can't break free successfully."

For the devil fruit ability user, seastone is completely fatal.

Not only will it make him lose his ability, it will also weaken the opponent's body. Even if he has trained for it specifically, his strength will be greatly reduced.

"I will never allow you to hurt my father!!!"

Ace's veins popped up, and he tried his best to break free.

But everything was in vain.

Zhan Guo did not speak, but just looked at Garp standing on the other side. He was lowering his head and had no idea what he was thinking.

Maybe this execution was a mistake from the beginning.

But there is no turning back.

A flash of black light flashed across his body.

He turned his head and continued to look at the sea in front of him.

He could vaguely see countless ships approaching here in front of him.

"It's a large pirate fleet!"

Someone in the navy shouted loudly.

Sengoku stood up and looked around.

He was looking for Whitebeard's ship.

The others were just a foil, and only Whitebeard's death was their goal.

At this moment.

"Boom!!!"

The sea in front of the naval base was suddenly separated, and a ship wrapped in bubbles broke through the water.

A huge ship appeared directly outside the navy's encirclement.

"It's Whitebeard's ship!!"

The scouting navy shouted.

"All fourteen Whitebeard captains are here."

Sengoku stared at the huge ship in front of him.

"Whitebeard."

A figure wearing a white coat and naked upper body slowly walked forward.

Seeing the person in front of him.

Sengoku showed an incredible expression on his face.

The golden hair, the skin without a trace of wrinkles, the young and strong body.

"Whitebeard!?"

Isn't the other person's appearance the same as when he was young?

He had dealt with Whitebeard many times, and he knew exactly what he looked like when he was young.

"A trick!"

Zhan Guo looked at the man in front of him in doubt.

He didn't believe that Whitebeard suddenly became younger, it must be the ability of some devil fruit.

"Zhan Guo."

Whitebeard carried Kuromokiri on his shoulders and looked at Zhan Guo with a big mouth.

"I'm coming."

"Gulala!"

His laughter was like a sword that pierced Zhan Guo, instantly piercing his heart.

What they are going to face is not the old and weak Whitebeard, but the Whitebeard who has returned to his youthful peak! ! !

"It's really scary."

Kizaru sighed, with a hint of sincerity in his tone.

Whitebeard can be called the strongest man because he fought for it when he was young.

Even the other four emperors acknowledged his title.

Even Pirate King Roger did not dare to underestimate Whitebeard's power.

Isn't the real reason why the navy is preparing to take action against the Whitebeard Navy because the opponent is no longer at its peak?

Now they are about to face Whitebeard at his peak.

The strongest man on the sea.

Yellow Ape's body turned into a beam of light and quickly appeared in front of Whitebeard. He kicked quickly with laser light condensed on his feet.

"Huh?"

Yellow Ape's foot did not land on Whitebeard in the end. Black and blue lines were wrapped around his body.

"You blocked me."

A cold voice sounded.

Scorpion's fingers moved, and the black and blue lines quickly cut Yellow Ape.

Yellow Ape's chopped body turned into yellow light and flew to the distance again.

"There are still tricky people, so scary."

Yellow Ape then looked at the red-haired boy standing next to Whitebeard, and the other party just gave him a cold look.

If the other party had not passed over his head, he would not have chosen to attack.

"Thank you."

Whitebeard thanked him out loud.

Scorpion just glanced at him.

"Come, let me see your peak power."

The other party could easily resist that level of attack.

What he wanted to see more was the power of this man at his peak.

Is he qualified?

Become his new puppet.

"Gulala!"

Whitebeard laughed, stomped his feet on the cabin, and shot straight into the distance.

Whitebeard at his peak.

No taboos.

"Zhan Guo!!!"

The cloud in his hand cut the transparent light ball.

He chopped it heavily towards Zhan Guo.

The black and gold light on Zhan Guo's body lit up instantly, and his body also jumped towards Whitebeard at the same time.

A big Buddha with black and gold appeared, and slapped the oncoming Whitebeard with both hands.

"Whitebeard!!"

"Boom!!"

The strong collision produced a sonic boom.

Tearing everything in the air wantonly.
