Chat group: Taming Kuina, controlling Cynthia

They prefer fair competition and disdain taking advantage of others' misfortunes.

Gol D. Roger? That's impossible!

Sengoku and Garp exclaimed in unison, their faces filled with shock.

Redhead stood frozen in place, staring at the familiar figure and muttering to himself, "Captain? Is it really you?"

Ace's gaze was fixed on that figure, his feelings a complex mix of emotions that defied description.

Resentment? Perhaps a little.

But more than anything, it's an emotion that's hard to explain.

He never imagined he would meet his biological father in person.

Whitebeard, carrying the nearly dead Blackbeard, turned to Roger as he approached: "Hey, old buddy! Did the group admin revive you?"

Roger strode over, pleading with an air of authority, "Newgate, may I personally deal with this traitor who harmed Ace?"

"Don't even think about it!"

Whitebeard refused decisively, and seeing Roger's disappointed expression, he added, "Although this beast betrayed me, he was still my son."

However… you can teach him a good lesson, just leave him alive so I can clean up the mess.

Roger laughed heartily as he accepted the black beard that Whitebeard handed him, while the latter looked utterly despairing.

Blackbeard was internally devastated. After being severely injured by Whitebeard, he still had to face Roger's brutal beating. What kind of "honor" was this?

?

"Ahhh!"

Fists rained down, Roger deliberately holding back his strength, not using Armament Haki, and targeting the most painful spots.

"Traitors deserve to be punished!"

"Betray my son? You're asking for death!"

"Hand him over to the navy? They're asking for it!"

"I'm going to beat you to death today!"

He hit and cursed as he did so, making those around him break out in a cold sweat.

Is this the legendary Pirate King? He's like an ordinary father who's protective of his offspring, which makes him less intimidating.

Ace stared intently at Roger, his feelings a complex mix.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhan Guo sternly ordered, "Time's up, carry out the execution immediately!"

Roger instantly flew into a rage: "How dare you!"

The terrifying Conqueror's Haki swept across the entire area, causing those who were not strong enough to faint.

"implement!"

During the Warring States period, they persevered through gritted teeth.

"court death!"

Roger shook off the half-dead Blackbeard and rushed toward the execution platform like lightning.

Sengoku urged the executioner to act, while he transformed into a giant golden Buddha and charged toward Roger, not forgetting to pull Garp along for help.

Garp stood there, his fists clenched, his heart filled with struggle.

He glanced at Ace, then looked at Sengoku, and for the first time felt a distance between himself and his old friend.

Even though the situation was already out of control and executing Ace was pointless, Sengoku insisted on doing so and even wanted him to participate personally.

"Go ahead and fight if you want, I'm taking Ace with me."

A strange voice suddenly rang out.

Garp turned his head and saw a young man standing next to Ace, while the two executioners lay unconscious on the ground.

"You are…"

Karp stared at the other person warily.

"Gu Beichen, the terminator of the Celestial Dragons."

The young man said calmly, "Don't stop me, I'm taking him away."

Before he finished speaking, he had already disappeared with Ace.

At the same time, Roger and Whitebeard heard Gu Beichen's voice transmission: "Ace is safe now, you can do whatever you want."

The two were speechless for a moment.

When Garp saw that Ace had been rescued, his tense emotions finally relaxed.

But Gu Beichen's identity shocked him—it turned out that he was the mysterious person who destroyed the Celestial Dragons back then.

The roar of the Warring States period pulled him back to reality.

Seeing his old friend charge towards Roger alone, Garp sighed and charged after him anyway.

After decades of friendship, we simply cannot stand idly by.

After Ace escaped danger, Whitebeard did not hesitate to slash off Blackbeard's head, ignoring the latter's pleas for mercy.

Chapter 111: That's... Blackbeard's Devil Fruit?

He then immediately joined the battle against the Five Elders.

The moment Blackbeard fell, Gu Beichen quietly appeared beside the corpse.

He used his spatial abilities to isolate the corpse, placed a few fruits inside, and quietly waited for the Dark Fruit to regenerate.

The outside world appears calm, but the reality has quietly changed.

"Boss!"

Van Cleef and his men witnessed Blackbeard's horrific state and were so shocked that they slowed down, allowing their opponents to exploit their weakness and inflict heavy damage.

The battle quickly turned against them. The Blackbeard Pirates were already weaker than the Whitebeard Pirates, and even the few strong men who escaped from Impel Down were forced to retreat due to their inability to recover their strength and were quickly wiped out.

Meanwhile, Sengoku and Garp were locked in a fierce battle with Roger.

Kaido, Big Mom, Madara Uchiha, Hashirama, and other powerful figures also clashed with the World Government's top brass.

The battle was exceptionally fierce, but neither side used their full strength, seemingly enjoying this rare contest.

Gu Beichen patiently waited until the Dark Fruit was fully reborn before removing the spatial barrier and taking it into his possession.

This action drew the attention of those around: "That's... Blackbeard's Devil Fruit?"

"It's actually possible to obtain it this way?"

"Is it a coincidence?"

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Gu Beichen sneered. His sharp gaze sent chills down the spines of the onlookers, who quickly looked away.

They were filled with doubt: Who exactly is this mysterious figure?

After the battle lasted for more than an hour, Madara was the first to defeat his opponent.

After seeing through the Five Elders' strength, he directly summoned a hundred-meter-tall Susanoo and killed them with a single strike.

The aftershocks of this attack also took away many government experts. If Madara hadn't controlled the situation properly, the entire Marine Headquarters would have been split in two.

"My God! What kind of monster is that?"

"Isn't that an exaggeration? It's even more terrifying than a giant!"

The onlookers were all stunned by Susanoo.

Kaido and the others also showed solemn expressions, clearly sensing the threat.

Seeing Madara finish his battle and prepare to return, Hashirama immediately unleashed his Wood Release technique, a giant wooden palm that pulverized another Five Elder and several Vice Admirals.

This move also shocked everyone present, putting Kaido and his crew under even more pressure.

Subsequently, Sakumo Hatake and Kaido defeated their opponents one after another.

Just as the old woman was about to extract the lifespan of one of the Five Elders, Im, who had been lying in wait for a long time, suddenly made his move.

She was beheaded before she even had a chance to react; her supposedly indestructible body's defenses were completely rendered ineffective.

Im then activated his spatial abilities to try and save people, which caught Madara's attention: "Spatial abilities? Interesting."

Gu Beichen stared intently at Im's every move, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He instantly teleported next to the old woman's corpse, sealed it off with his spatial powers, and casually tossed in a few pieces of fruit.

He turned to look at the surviving Five Elders and tapped them lightly with his fingertips.

A force of spacetime pierced through Im's defenses and struck him directly between the eyebrows.

The Five Elders stared wide-eyed, then instantly lost their breath.

"Damn it! Let's get out of here!"

Im's expression changed drastically, and he turned to flee.

Gu Beichen flashed to block the way, interrupting the other party's spatial jump and pulling him out of the dimensional rift.

"Damn it! Why are you always picking on me?"

Im hysterically roared.

"It's just a difference in perspective."

Gu Beichen responded calmly, his hand suddenly tightening.

The laws of space crushed Im into a pulp, but the minced flesh continued to writhe.

"interesting."

Gu Beichen raised an eyebrow and unleashed a gray blade of light.

The scraps of meat quickly dried and weathered away, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Ban witnessed the whole thing, his pupils shrinking slightly: "Such powerful time manipulation."

Hashirama chuckled and put his arm around his shoulder: "Isn't this normal? Come on, let's go for a drink!"

"Who told you that..."

Ban shook his head helplessly, "But drinking is fine, we have to drink to our hearts' content today."

Madara shook his head helplessly, deciding to stop worrying about it and fly towards the Sword God with Hashirama.

Hashirama laughed heartily, completely unconcerned.

At this time, Tobirama Senju and the others also successively defeated their respective opponents.

Although many naval elites still survived, the group had lost all will to fight and retreated.

Today's objective has been largely achieved—the World Government's top combat forces have been completely wiped out, and even the final leader, Im, was not spared.

The World Government's rule has collapsed, and what follows will be an era of competition between the Navy, the Revolutionary Army, pirates, and various kingdoms.

"The ocean is probably about to get completely out of control."

Sengoku and General Tsuru both had solemn expressions.

Although they have many grievances against the World Government and have even fantasized about naval independence, the reality is that the navy cannot do without the support of the World Government.

Now everything is settled.

The navy also suffered heavy losses, and its immediate priority is to restore its strength as soon as possible, maintain maritime order, and even compete for world dominance.

After dealing with Im, Gu Beichen teleported to the old woman's corpse and took the reborn Soul Fruit.

He gave a cold glance to Katakuri and the others who dared not speak out in anger, and then returned to the Sword God.

When Guina and the others returned to the battlefield one after another, Gu Beichen had already obtained the Soul Fruit.

"No need to deal with the old lady anymore, I've already got the fruit."

He waved the Devil Fruit in his hand, his tone relaxed.

Kuina said with some regret, "It's a real pity. I didn't expect Im to make the first move."
