"..."
Under everyone's puzzled gazes, Blackbeard suddenly lifted the black cloth covering Whitebeard's corpse, laughing arrogantly, "Next, I'll let you open your eyes and see the ultimate performance that can shock the whole world."
The Navy soldiers shouted one after another, "Blackbeard is a pirate who deceived us Navy soldiers. We must not let him go."
And the people of the Blackbeard Pirates were guarding next to Whitebeard's corpse, which was covered up, looking at the Navy with great excitement.
"Sorry, we can't let you disturb our captain next."
The Navy hadn't received orders, and didn't dare to immediately take action against the Blackbeard Pirates. However, they surrounded all the people of the Blackbeard Pirates.
Even Sengoku was staring intently at the Blackbeard Pirates. He knew that the Blackbeard Pirates' purpose wasn't simple, but he didn't know what Blackbeard was planning.
While running, Marco suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder. He turned his head to look, and saw Akira staring intently at him.
"Akira!"
Seeing Akira's eyes, Marco knew that he had woken up, so he shouted in great surprise.
"Marco!"
Akira had indeed recovered. He called out Marco's name, and then said in a low voice, "Pops has died in battle, but I will never allow anyone to desecrate Pops's body again. That bastard Teach wants to steal Pops's ability."
"What did you say?" Marco shouted in surprise, "You said Teach wants to steal Pops's ability?"
Akira said, "His Yami Yami no Mi ability is unique. It can absorb abilities. Plus, with his physique, he might be able to possess more than two Devil Fruit abilities. He killed Pops, not just for fame, but more to steal Pops's Gura Gura no Mi ability. He's about to complete it now."
When he woke up, he had already seen Whitebeard's body being covered up, and also knew that he couldn't stop Blackbeard anymore.
Marco roared angrily, "That bastard Teach, how dare he do this."
Akira said coldly, "He even dared to kill Pops. What else wouldn't he dare to do? He can steal Pops's ability, but I will never allow him to desecrate Pops's body. So, Marco, put me down."
Hearing these words, Marco immediately shook his head. Although he also wanted to take Whitebeard's body, he knew very well that the current situation made it impossible for them to have this opportunity. They were being chased by the Navy now, and couldn't even get close to Whitebeard's body. How could they take it away?
"No, Akira, you've suffered serious injuries, and everyone's morale is also low. Although I'm very sorry to Pops, we absolutely can't let everyone continue to take risks. Even if Pops was still here, he would agree with my choice."
Akira said firmly, "I couldn't be filial to Pops by his side when he was alive, but after his death, I definitely can't let Pops drift outside. I want to take Pops back to the New World, and bury Pops with my own hands. Marco, you have to believe me."
Marco shook his head, and said, "No, no, you've suffered serious injuries. This is absolutely impossible."
"Marco!"
While Marco and Akira were running, Jozu, Thatch, and Ace were also being forced into a very embarrassed situation by Akainu. Akainu was really too strong. Even though there were many division commander-level pirates, they were still completely suppressed by the Navy forces led by Akainu, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of momentum.
"Haven't Marco and them retreated yet?" While dealing with Akainu, Thatch asked loudly.
The other pirates had been paying attention to Marco and their movements all along. Hearing Thatch's words, someone immediately answered, "Captain Marco and them are being chased by the Navy. They're still very far from the bay head. Akira has also suffered serious injuries."
Thatch said dejectedly, "This is really adding insult to injury. It's all caused by that bastard Teach. I will never let him go."
His arm had been broken by Blackbeard, so his hatred for Blackbeard was stronger than everyone else. Moreover, now Blackbeard had not only injured Akira, but also killed Whitebeard. This was an irreconcilable hatred.
"Great Eruption!"
Akainu roared, and terrifying magma swept over. Thatch and the others retreated while fighting, barely managing to block Akainu's attacks each time. Although Thatch's strength was also very strong, he had lost a lot of stamina after continuous battles. Jozu and the others were about the same.
On the contrary, Akainu hadn't really taken action many times in this war. Besides the ultimate move Meteor Volcano before, he had only exchanged a few simple moves with Whitebeard and Marco and the others. So, he didn't have much consumption. Plus, with the strength of his ability, he was able to suppress Jozu and Thatch and them.
"Fire Fist!"
Having reached this point, Ace was also going all out, completely disregarding the fact that his ability was being suppressed, and not caring about his injuries, using all his strength to block Akainu.
It was because of his existence that the Whitebeard Pirates were able to persevere for so long. In terms of strength, Ace was also ranked at the top in the Whitebeard Pirates.
It was just that his ability was restrained by Akainu. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been injured by Akainu in just a few moves.
Although the battle here was dangerous, it wasn't to the point of collapsing. Moreover, the Whitebeard Pirates also had other advantages, which was that the huge pirate ship that had appeared before had already rushed to the bay head, and had sunk several warships.
Some pirates had already gotten on some of the undamaged pirate ships, and were now driving the ships to support at the bay head.
Now, the only advantage that the Whitebeard Pirates had on the entire battlefield was the bay head. Speaking of which, it was indeed unimaginable. To the Navy, the bay head should be an extremely important place, because as long as they blocked this place, they would be able to block the pirates' retreat.
But Whitebeard had already made preparations before, opening up the bay head in advance. Even if the Navy had someone to fill in later, it was useless. That huge pirate ship, carrying the pirates, quickly defeated the Navy at the bay head, leaving a retreat for the pirates.
"Quick, quickly escape to the bay head. As long as we get on the ship, we will be able to leave Marineford."
All the pirates were gathering all their strength, desperately fleeing towards the bay head, leaving only a few people to resist the Navy.
Just at this time, Laffitte of the Blackbeard Pirates suddenly said with a smile, "Sorry for the wait, everyone. Next, our Blackbeard Pirates' Captain Teach will present the world's top performance for everyone. Please enjoy it to the fullest!"
Saying that, the black cloth covering Whitebeard's corpse was suddenly lifted. Blackbeard also walked out from in front of Whitebeard's body. They saw Blackbeard walking to the opposite of the Navy with a smug face.
"Quick, look, Blackbeard has appeared. But Whitebeard's corpse doesn't seem to have changed."
"What exactly did the Blackbeard Pirates do to Whitebeard's corpse?"
"Blackbeard doesn't seem to have changed either!"
The Navy soldiers, seeing Whitebeard and Blackbeard, who basically hadn't changed, were very puzzled.
And in the distance, Akira suddenly pressed down on Marco's shoulder, shouting, "Marco, stop, look there!"
Marco also noticed Blackbeard's appearance. However, he didn't stop. Instead, he turned around, watching while retreating. He also wanted to see if things were really as Akira had said.
Blackbeard's gaze became smug and excited. He laughed loudly, pointing at the Navy, and shouting, "Navy, now I'll let you see my power. That is to say, from now on, we will officially be enemies again, zehahaha!"
Blackbeard's words made all the Navy soldiers extremely angry. They had lost countless manpower to force Whitebeard into a desperate situation. But they hadn't expected that Blackbeard would take advantage of it in the end. Now Blackbeard was still so arrogant on the battlefield.
Blackbeard raised his hand, and a large amount of black smoke appeared behind him, shouting loudly, "Dark Hole!"
That large amount of black smoke appeared at the feet of the Navy soldiers. What was shocking was that all the Navy soldiers standing on the black smoke began to sink, soon disappearing into the black smoke.
"This is the power of my Yami Yami no Mi!"
Blackbeard laughed loudly, but he shouted, "Next, the power I'm going to show is?"
