Chapter 124: The Wind Sweeps
With Maude's intervention, the future begins to become uncertain.
However, the Akainu and many navies, who crossed him and chased Ace, are very likely to make the scene in the original book happen again.
Maude doesn't care about Ace and Luffy's lives at all.
But if Akainu is like the original book, he uses words to stimulate Ace, which causes Ace to not escape.
Then, Ace will definitely die.
Moreover, the presence of such people as Klockdal, Jinping, and Ivankov is missing.
Sabo and Luffy, and even Jasmine and the Straw Hats, are very likely to be involved by Ace and then die here.
Maud could imagine that outcome, but she couldn't spare her hands to contain Akainu.
It's not because Sengoku can leave him here, but because he has to take care of Luo's life.
Until Law regained his strength as much as he could, Maud had no time to pay attention to the situation on Sabo's side.
"Will Shanks come......"
In addition to confronting the Warring States, Maude thought silently in his heart.
His arrival and presence are already influencing the "established" future.
So he can't be sure if Shanks will appear as in the original book, and then take a strong stance to stop the war.
But even if Shanks comes, as long as Ace doesn't die, the navy won't necessarily stop.
Because, for the navy and the whole world, cutting off the evil bloodline of One Piece has a very far-reaching positive significance.
In order to promote such an outcome, the Navy will most likely not give up.
There's no point in thinking too much until the curtain falls.
Everything can only be left to fate.
Maude slashed in front of him, making it clear that he was defending, not attacking.
Sengoku had insight into Maude's plans.
It just so happened that he didn't want to see Maude meddle in the situation anymore, and it would be best if Maude could be honestly here.
At this moment, the tea dolphin stepped into the battle circle and stared at Maude.
"Tea dolphin, you also go after Fire Fist."
Sengoku could clearly feel the undisguised killing intent of the tea dolphin against Maude, but the execution of the Fire Fist was more important at the moment, and he couldn't waste too much combat power on Maude.
Hearing Sengoku's order, the tea dolphin did not respond immediately, and there was a trace of hesitation between his body movements.
"Go."
Warring States frowned, and his tone was full of undoubted meaning.
"Yes."
The tea dolphin struggled to deal with it.
No matter how reluctant he was, as a member of the navy, he could only accept orders during extraordinary times.
Before crossing the rift, the tea dolphin took one last look at Maude, his eyes were full of cold killing intent, and he immediately chased after the large army without looking back.
After the tea dolphin left, Sengoku suddenly launched an offensive against Maude.
Maude kept swinging her sword to fend off Sengoku's attacks, while slowly shifting her position to make room for Luo to regain his strength with peace of mind.
Defend like this until Saab and the others succeed in getting out of the battlefield, or ......
Regardless of the final outcome, when it was time to withdraw, Maud did not hesitate at all.
Maude defended in a single way, while Sengoku intended to limit Maude.
The two sides seemed to be fighting fiercely, but in fact, they each had their own hands, and there was no wanton waste of physical strength and domineering.
Without Maude's [Destructive Power], the situation on the battlefield tends to be stable.
And Maude's previous brief confrontation with Akainu also allowed Ace and them to successfully join the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Despite this, Akainu and the rest of the navy caught up with them.
Without any verbal interweaving, the combat power of the two sides once again clashed.
The difference is that Ace's safe return makes it unnecessary for the Whitebeard Pirates to fight to the death.
They fought and retreated, making it clear that they were going to slip away.
But how could the Red Inu make the Whitebeard Pirates satisfied, and the earth-destroying elemental attack beckoned to everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates.
In the face of Akainu's resistance, Marco was reluctant to stay behind and break the rear, so as to curb Akainu's deterrent.
But Akainu is not alone.
The presence of many navies led by more than a dozen elite vice admirals with him helped Akaiu gain space to attack the Whitebeard Pirates with impunity.
The fierce attacks that intertwined made it difficult for the Whitebeard Pirates to retreat safely.
Seeing that the Whitebeard Pirates deliberately headed towards the stone platform on the left side of the square, Akainu smiled coldly.
"Meteor Volcano!"
Knowing that the Whitebeard Pirates wanted to escape with the help of several warships in the offshore sea outside the square on the left side, Akainu was not at all polite.
The hundreds of magma fists that fell like meteor showers directly destroyed all the warships moored in the coastal sea.
In this way, the retreat of the Whitebeard Pirates was completely cut off.
Seeing the warship being destroyed by the Akainu Meteor Volcano, all the pirates were trembling in their hearts.
"You, who are no different from the dogs of the losers, where are you going to escape?"
The half-magmatic Akainu with a cold face on his face, and as he spoke, he threw magma fists at the Whitebeard Pirates.
The ultra-destructive magma fist tore through the hot gaps among the Whitebeard Pirates.
"If it weren't for that, who would have thought that the Whitebeard Pirates would be a bunch of cowards...... Oh, I seem to have said something wrong, your captain Whitebeard, although he was a loser in the last era, was a little ambitious and didn't choose to run away......"
While using his magma fist to destroy the defense of the Whitebeard Pirates, Akainu used cynicism to attack the Whitebeard Pirates spiritually.
"How dare you insult Daddy!!"
"Shut up !!"
"Daddy is not a loser!!"
The Whitebeard Pirates have not yet overcome the grief of losing their father, and when they hear Akainu insulting their father, they are immediately excited.
"Tsk."
Akainu sneered: "A mouthful of a daddy's call, are you playing at home?" β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Stimulated by Akainu's words, and the grief of losing his father, the Whitebeard Pirates finally broke their defenses.
Especially at the moment when the retreat is cut off, they are dominated by anger, and they are already inclined to give up and escape, so that they will fight Akainu to the end.
Even if it is death, you will take Akainu to hell with you.
Maud noticed this situation for the first time, and her heart couldn't help but be cold.
If Shanks didn't arrive in time, the people who insisted on staying would basically be no different from death.
Maud sighed in her heart.
Although he knew the outcome, he had no room to change.
Just when he thought the outcome was about to be doomed, the sky suddenly became cloudy and the wind was rising.
"Huh? Is it a dragon......"
Looking at the sudden change in the weather, Maude's eyes changed slightly, and he immediately thought of the dragon's ability.
Phewββ!
Without warning, a gust of wind swept through the sky, sweeping the Whitebeard Pirates into the sky!
At this moment,
Maud seems to see a changed future.
