Chapter 123: "The Most Heinous Criminal" Appears! Marines and Whitebeard are Stunned
Thud!
As [Great Whirlpool Spider] Squard fainted, Whitebeard was stunned on the spot!
This voice?
And this powerful Conqueror's Haki!
Am I... hallucinating?
Shouldn't that person have died in the battle at God Valley?
Why... is there this feeling of déjà vu!
"Whitebeard, can't even dodge such an attack!"
"You've aged beyond recognition!"
The next moment.
A figure appeared in front of Whitebeard!
Dressed in a clean white shirt and black long pants!
Height of 2.8 meters, emanating a faint yet profound aura!
At his waist hung a Supreme Grade Blade emitting a terrifying ghostly aura—the Shodai Kitetsu!
Such an image! Besides Rono! Who else could it be?!
At this moment, even Whitebeard, the world's strongest man who had dominated for decades, with rich experience and a heart that had long been calm!
Widened his eyes in astonishment!
Am I... not dreaming!
Rono! Actually appeared again!
Is he still alive?!!
This... how is this possible!
Not just Whitebeard!
At this very moment!
On the conspicuous execution platform of Marineford!
Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and Garp sitting beside Ace!
Also noticed the change on the battlefield!
Squard's large sword did not pierce Whitebeard's chest but was forcibly blocked by someone!
After seeing clearly who helped Whitebeard block that sword!
Sengoku and Garp both had surprised expressions as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight!
No... it was simply shock!
Even Vice Admiral Tsuru, who was always calm, was extremely surprised at this moment, her pupils dilated!
Rono?
Why is this guy here!!
Didn't the Five Elders say he had gone to the Sky Island? It would take at least 2 days to get back!
How could he make it?!
What exactly is going on!
"How did this guy get to the battlefield!"
"Damn it! Didn't the Five Elders say he wouldn't come?"
"Ooh~ [The Most Heinous Criminal]~ A scary guy has appeared~!"
Besides Sengoku, Garp, and Tsuru, these Marine veterans!
The three Admirals on the battlefield, Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru!
Were also stunned on the spot after seeing Rono's figure!
The three of them were all personal participants in the Battle of God Valley 36 years ago!
Rono's terror, these three had a personal experience of it!
"Hey hey, what exactly is going on!"
"Why do Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Vice Admiral Garp, and Admirals Kuzan, Sakazuki, and Borsalino have such expressions?"
"And Pops Whitebeard, why is he so excited!"
"What exactly happened!"
Meanwhile, Marineford!
The people present!
Whether Marines, pirates, or even the five Shichibukai!
All keenly noticed that the aura of the battlefield had suddenly changed!
Whitebeard, Sengoku, Garp, the three Marine Admirals!
These six highest combat powers present, in an instant, their emotions changed extremely violently!
As if struck by a heavy blow!
And their changes were all because of the appearance of that strange man!
But these people knew nothing about this strange man's information!
Not only were the people present bewildered!
"What exactly is going on!"
"Why don't I understand? Why are the high-ranking Marines like Sengoku, Garp, and the three Admirals looking so bad?"
"Hey hey, don't joke around! Isn't the war situation pretty good? What exactly happened?"
"Someone answer me!"
People all over the world watching the live broadcast were also bewildered!
Because the broadcast Den Den Mushi at this time had not been interrupted as Sengoku expected!
But was still broadcasting live!
Just as everyone was bewildered, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the battlefield!
This laughter was like a great bell, full of vigor!
"Gurarara! Gurarara!"
"This is great! I really didn't expect you to still be alive!"
"Rono!! You really surprised me! As expected of you! To survive such an attack!"
That laughter undoubtedly came from Whitebeard!
Although his body was weak, due to emotional excitement, Whitebeard seemed to have returned to his peak, bursting into hearty laughter!
Not only laughing, seeing Rono!
Memories of God Valley flooded his mind, and Whitebeard's eyes were also filled with hot tears!
Sure enough!
This guy wouldn't die so easily!
Great! Simply great!
Whitebeard laughed from the bottom of his heart, as if his body had recovered a bit!
This laughter also made the members of the Whitebeard Pirates completely stunned on the spot!
"Ro... Rono?"
"Did I hear that right? The name Pops said just now, was it Rono?"
"Could it be [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono? How is that possible! Didn't he die on the battlefield 36 years ago?"
"Yeah, in that Battle of God Valley, facing the siege of 20 Admiral-level powerhouses! He must have died!"
"Look... Pops is actually crying!"
"It seems to be true! It's really [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono!"
"Such an Overlord-level pirate! Is he actually still alive?"
Hearing Whitebeard's words!
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates present.
Marco, Jozu, Vista, Izo, and other Division Commanders!
As well as the Decalvan Brothers, [Thunder Lord] McGuy, and [Ice Witch] Whitey Bay, and more than 40 other captains, were also stunned on the spot!
For so many years, the deeds of [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono had been told by Pops countless times!
They had heard it so many times their ears were about to grow calluses!!
They could even recite Rono's deeds backward!
Originally thought that in the Battle of God Valley, Rono, who was besieged by 20 Admiral-level powerhouses, was completely dead!
Didn't expect him to appear again!
He didn't die under those circumstances!
And he saved Pops!
"Great! Fortunately, he made it!"
Marco also had tears in his eyes at this moment!
Sighed with great relief!
With Pops' current physical condition, if that sword had really pierced through, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"So that's the [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono Pops talks about!"
At this moment, Ace on the execution platform also looked at Rono with gratitude!
If not for his appearance at the critical moment, Squard's sword would definitely have worsened Pops' already frail physical condition!
"That man is the Overlord-level pirate from 36 years ago! [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono!"
"Fufufufu! A truly incredible man has come! Compared to the Clan of D, [The Most Heinous Criminal] is the so-called natural enemy of the [Gods]!"
"Lord Rono! The [Great Hero] Rono mentioned by the fish-man hero Fisher Tiger who saved me! I actually saw him in person today! That lord is actually still alive!"
"[The Most Heinous Criminal], the pirate that guy Kaido admires most!"
At this moment, Doflamingo, Mihawk, Empress Boa Hancock, and Gekko Moria among the Shichibukai!
Immediately understood Rono's identity!
At this moment, these Shichibukai of Marineford, after thoroughly understanding Rono's identity, were also filled with respect!
In terms of seniority, Rono was a great pirate who had been famous since the Rocks era, a whole two eras before them!
In terms of strength, he was an Overlord-level pirate, with even more terrifying strength and spirit than a Yonko or even the Pirate King!
Even these Shichibukai couldn't help but feel the urge to submit in their hearts upon seeing Rono!
"What? [The Most Heinous Criminal] Rono!"
"The Battle of God Valley?!!"
"Facing the siege of 20 Admiral-level powerhouses!"
Meanwhile, after hearing the words of the Whitebeard Pirates!
The Marines present also had incredulous expressions!
This name, they seemed to have heard it somewhere!
"Absolutely cannot let the world recall the name of [The Most Heinous Criminal]!"
"Quickly cut off the live broadcast! What's going on, isn't it done yet?"
At this moment, as if remembering something, Sengoku immediately asked!
Because he found that the communication of the broadcast Den Den Mushi had not been cut off.
"Fleet... Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I don't know why!"
"Since just now, we haven't been able to contact the communication department!"
"It seems... the broadcast Den Den Mushi has been hijacked!"
The trembling voices of several Marines came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
"Hijacked? Who is so bold!"
"Can't you get it back?!"
Sengoku's heart skipped a beat!
At such a critical moment, who hijacked the broadcast Den Den Mushi!
"But... but, we are no match for that guy at all!"
On the other end of the phone, the trembling voice of the Marine in charge of communication technology came.
Immediately followed by the crackling sound of electricity and screams!
"Hahaha! This is an important mission given to me by the captain!"
"If I don't complete it well, I might lose my life!"
"So all you Blue Sea people go to hell!"
Meanwhile, the broadcast Den Den Mushi was already firmly in Enel's hands!
At his feet lay several Marines from the communication department responsible for the live broadcast!
These few were already blackened by the Rumble-Rumble electricity, having lost consciousness
