Chapter 21: A Wavering Mind
Commentary: How strong is the yellow ape?
I'm afraid no one can answer this question for sure, because few people have seen the yellow ape go all out. No matter how fierce the battle is, he always has a leisurely attitude, like those old men who have nothing to do all day long, sighing with a teacup that time is in a hurry, and he is like water.
Maybe the Yellow Ape's teacher, the former admiral Zefa, can know a little bit about it. But that's all there is to it, after many years, no one can be sure what kind of growth the yellow ape has had.
Just like at this time, no one can be sure how much effort the yellow ape has made. However, to the relief of Sengoku and the others, at least it seemed that he had a serious expression.
As a result, Marco, who was on the right side, felt an unprecedented pressure. He had no time to think, and the continuous burst of light made him tired of dodging, and suddenly he even had a feeling that it was difficult to breathe.
"Is this the strength of the general?!" secretly exclaimed in his heart, Marko, who had turned into an immortal bird, the flames on his body also burned a little more violently. What comes the result is faster speed, greater flexibility, and a staggering spirit that flickers and moves in the air as a bird.
Marko is very strong, there is no doubt about it, and being appointed as the first battle captain of the Whitebeard Pirates is enough to show that. After all, often the battle captain of a pirate group is the strongest person except for the captain, and even in some pirate groups, the battle captain is the strongest combat force.
Whitebeard is known as the strongest on the sea, and Marco, who is second only to him, is known as the first person under the Four Emperors, and many people think that he has the qualifications to be among the Seven Martial Seas, even compared to the generals.
Although Marco is a person with no ambition, and his personality is more modest and lazy, after all, he is praised a lot, and it is inevitable that there will be a mood called "pride". But at this moment, this pride hidden in the bottom of his heart was easily torn out by the yellow ape.
The blue flames and the golden flashes intersected, shuttling through the sky at great speed, and from time to time bursting out of brief but brilliant fireworks between spiraling and flipping. This scene is so gorgeous that you can't help but play it, forgetting that it is a war to the death.
And behind the gorgeous, in the dark where no one knows, is the situation where Marco is completely suppressed by the yellow ape.
As the yellow ape often said, there is nothing faster in the world than the speed of light. At this time, even if Marco tried his best, he couldn't completely avoid it, and the flames that erupted from time to time were the result of being hit by the beam.
Of course, even if he is completely suppressed, Marco is not completely powerless to fight back.
The Immortal Bird Fruit, as a phantom beast species that is more cherished than the natural system, does not just give him the qualification to soar in the sky. After transforming into an immortal bird, the blue flames burning on his body cannot burn things, but they can make him "reborn from the ashes". Although it will also consume physical strength accordingly, it is precisely with this ability that Marco uses a momentum that does not hesitate to exchange injuries for injuries in the short pause of each yellow ape's attack.
Until......
With a muffled sound of vigorous collision, a flash of light was suddenly shot down from the sky and shot straight into the naval position. Then, in the surprised shouts of the navy, the figure of the yellow ape was revealed.
"Oops, it's really amazing~" Hanging from the corner of his eyes, the yellow ape changed back to a playful appearance again, "Giant troops, pay more attention to the air!"
In the air, Marco, who had a heavy breath, shook his wings and frowned. He didn't feel the slightest joy of winning a game, but instead felt an indescribable irritability.
"Have you been teased......?
On the ground, the yellow ape was looking around with a bored look, without the slightest tension on the battlefield, like an outsider watching the excitement. And after a seemingly fierce battle, the navy coat that the yellow ape was wearing was not even a little dusty.
"Inglourious Basterds ......"
……
At the same time, as the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates entered the battlefield, the vice admirals also greeted them without showing weakness. Even, when "Diamond" Joz threw out a huge block of ice like a mountain, the forced Akainu couldn't sit down peacefully and joined the fight.
Subsequently, the battle became more and more intense, and the people who threw themselves into it had forgotten everything, they could not think about it, and the only survival instinct made them fight to the death against everything around them.
Ice, fire, carnage, blood, shouting, wailing, this is the end of the world.
What you see in your eyes and what you hear in your ears are all these things that make ordinary people crazy. What's more, many of the splattered blood belonged to those faces, whom he knew quite well, and who used to laugh together, drink together, and sing together......
Now, the burly body had collapsed, and the hot blood had not even left a mark, it was cooled by the cold ice, and then melted into it, with a cold red.
Ace trembled and struggled to get up, but the palm on his shoulder that belonged to Sengoku made all his struggles in vain.
"Watch quietly, Gore M. D. Ace. The voice of the Warring States came faintly, but there was a trace of fatigue and loneliness in the coldness and hardness," ...... These are sins in the blood. ”
Ace didn't say a word, his eyes were about to split.
In normal times, Ace would definitely yell back loudly, telling Sengoku that he had nothing to do with that man, that his surname was Portcas, and that his father had only one person, and that was Whitebeard.
But at this time, all this was forgotten by him, and everything that happened now occupied all his thoughts.
He had already anticipated what he had to face, and the moment he stepped out of Impelton, he had already anticipated what he would face. But when everything he had expected really happened, he realized that what he had thought was so naïve and superficial in reality......
This is war, a real war of blood and fire. And the battles between the pirates he had experienced in the past seemed so small here, like a child playing at home.
"New Era......
Looking at all this happening in front of him, everything that Ace believed in was shaken. He couldn't help but wonder if his choice was right.
Justice.
Evil.
These two seemingly opposite words, blurred with the war, merge with each other and together become two bloody words – sin.
……
PS: Tut-tut, how to say it, I also know that I don't write well, the update is very pitiful, and I won't talk about the results, it's too heart-wrenching...... So some time ago, I was always hesitating to give up and start anew or something.
But with the only conscience left and a little bit of responsibility, I decided to write it down anyway!
For those of you who are still watching, I am very grateful and apologized, and bow......
