One Piece : The Strongest Fleet Admiral

Sakazuki, who had successfully broken free from Garp's restraints, did not attack again. Instead, he took a deep breath.

The weak are as angry as tigers, the strong are as calm as water!

After his anger calmed down a little, he shouted to the crowd around him:

"Where is the Supervisory Team?"

The Supervisory Team is an independent army specially created for war. It is led by a major general and two brigadiers, with a total of one thousand soldiers. They follow direct orders from the Marine Fleet Admiral. Their main responsibilities include recording the military exploits of soldiers in a war, identifying undercover spies within the Marines, and dealing with deserters and traitors.

Because they have been involved in various types of wars for a long time, the overall quality of these one thousand people is higher than that of ordinary elite Marines.

There is also another secret that no one knows. Because the original Akainu was brave and militant, he never stopped in his mission to eliminate pirates. In almost every large-scale battle, he volunteered to participate. Therefore, he has had more contact with the Supervisory Team.

And with Akainu's zero-tolerance attitude toward pirates and his firm pursuit of absolute justice, he has completely impressed most of the people in the Supervisory Team. The three commanders highly praised Sakazuki, which even the Marines did not know.

"General Sakazuki!"

Major General Robert, the captain of the Supervisory Team who had already learned about the situation, and several of his men immediately walked out of the crowd and gave Sakazuki a solemn military salute.

Sakazuki nodded coolly to him. Now was not the time to reminisce about old times, nor should the relationship between the two be exposed prematurely.

"Lieutenant General Garp! If you still have a sense of justice, hand over Straw Hat Luffy to the Supervisory Team. Then he will be sent to Impel Down Prison, and you should leave with the Supervisory Team now!"

Garp looked in the direction of Sengoku. After hesitating for a moment, the Marines in the Supervisory Team fastened sea stone handcuffs onto Straw Hat Luffy's wrists.

Garp had hoped that using his close relationship with Sengoku, he could beg for mercy and perhaps get the Supervisory Team to release Luffy. But his wishful thinking was doomed to fail.

For the Supervisory Team, Sakazuki's words were much more effective than the Marines'.

Watching Garp and Straw Hat Luffy being escorted away by the Supervisory Team, Sakazuki let out a sigh of relief. The dust had finally settled here. There would be no situation like in the original play, where Straw Hat Luffy, led by Silvers Rayleigh, returned to Marineford and rang the bell at Marine headquarters, causing damage to Marine's prestige again.

"Hahahaha, it seems I'm late! I didn't have time to pay my last respects to my dear father!"

A burst of very arrogant laughter came from Whitebeard's position.

Sakazuki thought to himself, "I almost forgot about Blackbeard."

I saw Blackbeard Teach and a group of his men appearing beside Whitebeard at some point. Looking at Blackbeard and Shiryu of the Rain, King of Evil, and others behind him, Sakazuki couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"Teach, how dare you come here! You traitor, you are the one who harmed my father!"

Upon seeing Blackbeard, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates were extremely excited. Especially Ace, who wanted to crush him immediately.

"Captain Marco, long time no see. How are you?"

Blackbeard showed a big mouth with missing teeth, and his face was full of sinister and cunning.

"And Captain Ace, you should pay more attention to your brother, thief hahaha!"

What?

Hearing what Blackbeard said, Ace noticed Luffy being escorted away from the battlefield by the Supervisory Team. Because he was too far away and had been dragged by Aokiji, he hadn't seen what had happened. But now, seeing Luffy's dangerous situation, he immediately became nervous.

Ignoring Blackbeard's taunt, Ace turned into a ball of flame and chased after Luffy in the direction he was taken.

"Court death!"

Seeing Ace rushing toward Robert, Sakazuki snorted.

He stepped hard on the ground with both feet and blasted toward Ace at an even faster speed. In an instant, he appeared in front of Ace.

"Get out of my way!"

"Fire Punch!"

Seeing Sakazuki standing in front of him, Ace immediately used his usual move without hesitation.

Faced with this fire fist that could destroy at least five warships, Sakazuki didn't even look at it. With a casual punch, the flames were completely dispersed.

"This...!"

Although he was surprised that his attack had been resolved so easily, Ace was far more concerned about Luffy's situation. The extreme worry in his heart made him lose his former calmness.

At this moment, all he wanted to do was rush to Luffy's side.

"Fire Emperor!"

Ace gathered a great deal of energy in his hands. The powerful energy formed a red flame ball, comparable to the sun in the sky. The air around it seemed to twist from the heat.

In an instant, the Great Fireball turned into a pillar of flame and sprayed toward Sakazuki.

"A small skill, overestimating your ability!"

Facing this terrifying blow, Sakazuki remained calm.

He added top-grade armed color domineering energy to the magma in his hand. He then unleashed a burst of fire to meet the pillar of flame.

After only a few seconds of stalemate, the flame pillar was completely destroyed. The attack continued unabated, targeting Ace, who was exhausted from the effort.

"Boom!"

The sound of magma colliding with flesh echoed, followed by the sound of flesh hitting the ground.

Garp, Luffy, and the others, who were about to leave the battlefield, felt a burning heat and turned their heads to see a scene that made their eyesight blur.

"Ace!!!"

Ace was seen kneeling on his knees, his chest and abdomen a bloody mess. He kept vomiting blood and stared blankly at the sky. It was obvious that he was dying soon.

Luffy desperately tried to break free of the sea stone handcuffs. Marines from the Supervisory Team immediately pressed him to the ground, preventing him from moving.

Garp's eyes were red, and he clenched his fist fiercely. Images of his time with Ace flashed through his mind, finally stopping at the scene where he promised Roger he would take good care of Ace's mother and son.

"Sakazuki!"

Garp roared lowly, unable to suppress his anger. The near death of Ace had pushed him past his limits.

An astonishing momentum burst from him.

"Boom!"

In an instant, only an afterimage was left on the spot. Garp ran toward Sakazuki at a speed exceeding the speed of sound. The resulting sonic boom was deafening.

In the blink of an eye, Garp arrived in front of Sakazuki and glanced at the badly injured Ace again.

Garp, losing his mind, made a fist with his right hand. The pitch-black fist suddenly burst into frightening purple-red light.

There seemed to be electric arcs flickering in the air for several meters around it.

This punch seemed to carry the power of heaven and earth as it mercilessly slammed into Sakazuki.
