#233 - Terrifying tsunami! General Zhao Zheng takes action - You don’t want god-level superpowers, so you choose the worst talent?

“Why do I feel like this Marineford war is abnormal in every aspect?”

One Transcendent whispered.

His words resonated with many of his companions.

It was indeed too abnormal.

Not only were more than half of the 100,000 elite troops missing, but even Admiral Aokiji had disappeared.

To make matters worse, they actually let that brat Zhao Zheng replace the Admiral's position?

Fleet Admiral Sengoku is really senile!

“I'm thinking of deserting…”

Someone said in a deep voice, “Without Admiral Aokiji, how are we going to withstand Whitebeard's seaquake and the resulting tsunami? I don't want to drown here.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone frowned, their faces unsightly.

“The Navy's top brass are watching! Where can we escape to?” Another person whispered, “Can you outrun Admiral Kizaru?”

For a time.

Sighs and complaints arose continuously.

Not only did the Transcendent feel pessimistic.

Even the soldiers of the Marine Headquarters, as well as the Shichibukai who came to support, felt that something was wrong.

“Hmm? So few people? Are they joking? Even one of the Admirals is absent?”

Doflamingo stood on a battlement, his eyes scanning the surroundings, chuckling, “This is quite different from the planned deployment! Could it be that such an opponent is no longer worthy of the Marine Headquarters' attention?”

As soon as these words came out, the Shichibukai, on the surface, showed no change, but their hearts sank.

Like Gekko Moriah, he even had the intention of retreating.

At this time, Empress “Boa Hancock” looked back at the three Admirals sitting in the rear, and finally focused her gaze on Zhao Zheng, her expression strange, not knowing what she was thinking.

Only the world's greatest swordsman “Hawkeye” remained unmoved, standing there with his eyes closed, resting.

…

As time passed.

The atmosphere at the Marine Headquarters became more and more oppressive.

As if a storm was brewing!

The sun hung high.

It was already approaching noon.

At this time, the prison gate opened, and Fire Fist Ace was escorted to the execution platform.

At the same time, the live broadcast Den Den Mushi was fully activated, broadcasting this impactful war to the whole world.

Subsequently.

As in the original storyline, Fleet Admiral Sengoku first explained why Fire Fist Ace was being publicly executed, and finally revealed Ace's true identity: the other party was the late “Pirate King” Roger's own son!!

As soon as these words came out, the whole world was shocked!

Under the World Government's deliberate smear campaign, Pirate King Roger was already the nightmare of countless people!

Hearing Fleet Admiral Sengoku say that Fire Fist Ace was actually Roger's evil bloodline, many people all over the world were clamoring to kill Ace.

Just then.

Suddenly, a soldier reported that a large number of ships were approaching the Marine Headquarters.

The Whitebeard Pirates had finally arrived!

Everyone's expressions were solemn as they looked towards the distant sea.

Gradually, a huge fleet appeared in everyone's sight.

The leading ship was a gigantic wooden ship, shaped like a white whale!

Everyone had heard of this ship, and everyone recognized it.

It was Whitebeard's flagship: the Moby Dick!

…

In the original storyline.

Whitebeard's Moby Dick was coated and passed directly from the seabed, arriving in the inner bay, catching the Navy off guard.

But now, the Moby Dick did not follow the original storyline, but came with the main force…

Obviously, the Transcendent who joined the pirate camp, fearing that Whitebeard would be ambushed, suggested in advance to change all of this.

In the rear Admiral's seat, Zhao Zheng showed a slight smile when he saw this scene, not feeling surprised.

At this moment, he felt a little excited, and his blood began to boil!

As the owner of the Gura Gura no Mi ability, he was very curious whether his Gura Gura no Mi ability was more fierce, or Whitebeard's was stronger!!

“Report to the Fleet Admiral, the enemy has entered the firing range, should we launch an attack?”

A Navy general's request sounded from Fleet Admiral Sengoku's Den Den Mushi.

“Do not attack!” Fleet Admiral Sengoku said in a deep voice, “Let them all into the inner bay!!”

This instruction greatly surprised the general on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

He even thought he had misheard.

“Fleet Admiral?”

“Follow the order!”

Fleet Admiral Sengoku hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Indeed.

It would be the right approach to use artillery to consume the Whitebeard Pirates from a distance.

The original battle plan was also like this.

However, after Zhao Zheng demonstrated his powerful Haoshoku Haki, there was no need to waste artillery fire.

It would be better to keep it and use artillery to contain the Whitebeard Pirates when only the experts were left.

…

Thus.

The Whitebeard Pirates' huge fleet was let into the inner bay, almost face to face with the Marines on the square.

Countless people in the Navy camp were in an uproar.

“What's going on? Why didn't the artillery unit fire?”

“Such a good opportunity to weaken them, just let it go like this?”

“Did the generals give up resistance?”

“No! It's being broadcast live worldwide, Fleet Admiral Sengoku couldn't possibly choose to give up, there must be a traitor within us!”

“Who is the general in charge of commanding the artillery unit? He is the traitor!!”

Not to mention the uproar on the Navy camp's side.

Even the people on the Whitebeard Pirates' side were dumbfounded.

They were ready to avoid the shelling, but they didn't fire a single shot and just let them pass.

This kind of unconventional operation really confused the Whitebeard Pirates.

The more unusual it is, the easier it is to cause everyone to be vigilant.

So, the two sides confronted each other, and neither side took the first move.

…

In the Whitebeard Pirates' camp, there was a large ship with pirates on it who were not quite the same as the other pirates.

They wore modern clothes, and their height and build were all normal people, unlike the pirates on other ships, who were of different heights.

Most importantly, most of these people were blond-haired, blue-eyed white foreigners and black devils, with only a few yellow-skinned people.

That's right!

They were the Transcendent from Blue Star.

And they were all Transcendent targeting Song Haitang!

Such a huge ship was filled with them, with countless people.

There were at least ten times more than the Transcendent in the Navy camp!

However, at this moment, seeing the deployment of troops on the Marine Headquarters' side, they were also dumbfounded.

“Ssibal! Didn't they say there were 100,000 troops? Why are there so few people?”

“This is too abnormal, it seems that someone has influenced the Navy's top brass's decision!”

“We're in trouble, so few Marines are not enough for us to divide.”

“Jason, don't worry about these, as long as we can kill Song, those big shots will give us generous rewards, enough to make up for our losses this time.”

“Speaking of Song… where is she? Why haven't I seen her?”

“Quick, look carefully…”

These foreigners looked at all the Marines in the entire square, but still did not find Song Haitang's figure.

Was their eyesight not good enough?

Of course not!

Among so many Transcendent, there were many with strong mental power and excellent eyesight.

If Song Haitang was on the square, they would definitely not miss her.

So, not finding her now, there was only one possibility…

“Has anyone found the target's location?”

“No, I've looked several times, but I haven't seen Song…”

“Damn it! Why isn't she here?”

“Could it be that she got the news in advance, so she didn't come?”

“F**K!! If she doesn't come, then we're going to lose big.”

“No, no, no… How could she not come? How could she not come?”

“We've all been played by that woman! We've become clowns!”

…

After realizing that Song Haitang most likely didn't enter this Spirit Realm, everyone became anxious.

Everyone had prepared so much for this plan and paid such a high price…

But in the end.

The target didn't come?

Many people almost coughed up blood!!

“F**K! F**K! F**K!”

“We're idiots being led around by the nose!”

“The guy in charge of intelligence has to take responsibility for this!”

“According to the rules of our Great Wa Country, if such a blunder occurs, the intelligence chief must commit seppuku to apologize!!”

“Wait… everyone, look at the high platform in the back, the seats of the Navy Three Admirals!”

Finally.

Someone noticed the abnormality on the Navy Three Admirals' side.

“Wasn't Admiral Aokiji trapped by us? Why are the Three Admirals complete?”

“Idiot, of course, someone has taken Admiral Aokiji's place.”

“Who is he? Why does he look a little familiar… ”

“He is… I remember, he is Zhao, that woman's gigolo.”

“That's right! It's definitely him.”

“Why would he take Admiral Aokiji's place? Does he have the qualifications?”

“Without Song, he is nothing.”

“I think this is a feint by Fleet Admiral Sengoku, we don't need to pay attention to it.”

“Haha! This is really something to be happy about. Since he appeared here, it means that woman must also be here, just hiding.”

“That's right, that's it!!”

…

Seeing Zhao Zheng.

These foreigners cheered up again.

As for why Zhao Zheng could sit in the seat of a Navy Admiral, they didn't think so much.

At this moment, they were itching to get started. As soon as Song Haitang appeared, they would swarm up and kill Song Haitang!!

Of course, their sometimes pessimistic and sometimes excited appearance had already attracted the attention of the surrounding pirates.

“These people… are they sick or something?”

On the other side.

On the high platform.

Zhao Zheng naturally saw the ship of transcendents and immediately showed a sneer.

Although those transcendents were very shrewd and hid the ship behind the Moby Dick, it was useless in front of him.

When the fight starts later, he definitely won't let any of these transcendents go.

If you dare to target his wife, be prepared to be slaughtered by him!!

Suddenly.

Zhao Zheng seemed to sense something, his spirits lifted, and he looked towards the Moby Dick.

Not only him, but almost all the powerhouses in the field were like this.

Everyone felt the aura of a powerhouse slowly rising.

“Tap!”

A rhythmic tapping sound suddenly rang out from the Moby Dick.

That was the sound of Whitebeard's broadsword tapping on the stairs.

Feeling Whitebeard's terrifying aura getting stronger and stronger, everyone in the field closed their mouths and looked towards the Moby Dick.

Subsequently, a tall and sturdy figure walked out of the stairs and onto the bow deck of the Moby Dick.

This person was over six meters tall, all muscles, and his body was as huge as a monster!

It's no exaggeration to say that just such a body can bring a strong sense of oppression…

The most eye-catching thing was the white mustache on this person's face, curved upwards like a crescent moon.

When he walked onto the deck, his terrifying aura was fully activated, and he instantly became the focus of the audience!!

It was the “World's Strongest” man, Whitebeard himself.

“Is that Whitebeard? What a strong aura!”

“Yeah! He's already over seventy years old, but he still has such a strong aura?”

“Too scary! Just looking at him can bring me a sense of oppression.”

“Speaking of which, we also have a Tremor-Tremor Fruit user here…”

“Don't be ridiculous, can that guy be compared with Whitebeard?”

“Everyone be careful later, try to stay away from this giant monster.”

“Do you even need to say that? Who doesn't want to live? You can try to stop him…”

Many transcendents who saw Whitebeard were amazed.

It's no exaggeration to say that at this moment, all eyes in the field were focused on Whitebeard.

“Dad…”

Ace couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw that Whitebeard had really come to save him.

…

At this time.

Whitebeard glanced around, paused on Ace and Zhao Zheng, and finally looked at Sengoku.

Amidst the attention of everyone, Whitebeard spoke…

“Gurarara… Sengoku, Garp, it's been a long time.”

“Whitebeard!!”

Fleet Admiral Sengoku gritted his teeth, his face extremely solemn.

“Ace, my son, don't worry, I'll take you home right away!”

As Whitebeard's voice fell, he suddenly pressed the broadsword in his hand down and stood it on the deck.

Then.

He clenched his fists, crossed his arms, and made a posture ready to strike!

Seeing Whitebeard's posture, all the transcendents on the Navy side changed their expressions drastically.

“Not good!! He's going to activate his fruit ability.”

“The tsunami is coming soon, quick! Find cover!”

“Everyone must hold on tight, don't be washed away by the tsunami…”

…

The next moment!

Whitebeard's fists simultaneously bombarded the void on both sides.

“Crack!!”

The void shattered!

Space, like a mirror, actually showed a large number of cracks spreading.

All the experts present felt two extremely terrifying destructive forces spreading towards the left and right sides.

Whether it was the Navy Headquarters or the surrounding sea, they were all trembling at this moment.

Then.

An amazing scene appeared.

The sea actually began to appear a large area of reversal as if it had been cut, like the sky falling and the earth cracking.

A huge amount of seawater, under the control of terrifying power, began to gather towards the Navy Headquarters.

In a few breaths, a sky-covering tsunami was formed.

When the overwhelming tsunami swept towards the Navy Headquarters from the left and right sides, countless Navy soldiers were frightened out of their wits.

As if they had already seen death descending!

Even the senior Navy officials couldn't sit still.

Without Admiral Aokiji freezing the tsunami, they had to come forward to stop it, lest the Navy Headquarters be washed away in one wave.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Admiral Akainu took action one after another.

Only their two fruit abilities might be able to stop the tsunami.

However, before they could act, they saw a figure suddenly leap high into the air.

It was Zhao Zheng!!

Stopping the tsunami, Zhao Zheng certainly wouldn't let such a good contribution value to others.

Seeing him appear, Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Admiral Akainu retracted their actions, but their faces were still solemn.

And others were even more confused.

“He can actually fly?”

This was the thought of the vast majority of people.
