Chapter 61 - Chapter 61 Whitebeard's Peak Attack

"Sun Halo Dance: Instant Kill Flame Array!"

Meanwhile, Shisui didn't waste any more time and went all out.

He used a Body Flicker Technique that was almost like teleportation, combined with his hardened Armament Haki-infused Autumn Water blade, which was also wreathed in flames.

He instantly appeared in three different locations around Evil King's body.

Evil King's Observation Haki sensed danger, but he couldn't react in time.

After all, his Observation Haki couldn't predict the future. Although he sensed danger and used Armament Haki hardening in three separate spots,

Shisui, with the super dynamic vision granted by his Sharingan, could change his attack position at the last moment. Evil King's speed simply couldn't keep up.

Three tearing wounds instantly appeared on his body, but the wounds were cauterized by the flames, preventing any blood from gushing out.

Uchiha Tamahiko didn't hold back and immediately moved in for the kill. With Evil King injured and his reaction speed slowed, he couldn't dodge in time and was instantly headshotted by Uchiha Tamahiko's Chidori.

Next was Vasco Shot. He was handcuffed with Sea Stone. Without mastering the internal destruction aspect of Haki, he naturally couldn't break free and was easily killed by Uchiha Tamahiko.

"7/10"

Looking at the system prompt, Uchiha Tamahiko confirmed that both of them were truly dead.

However, before Uchiha Tamahiko could celebrate, the Shadow Clone tasked with monitoring San Juan Wolf, who was soaking in the sea, dispelled itself, bringing back intelligence.

"Is this guy trying to escape?"

"Bang."

Uchiha Tamahiko frowned.

He then created a Shadow Clone with 20% of his Chakra.

"Shisui, Itachi, keep an eye on those two. As long as they don't leave this area, you don't need to worry about them."

"There's another target elsewhere; I'll deal with him and then return."

Uchiha Tamahiko continued.

Uchiha Tamahiko wasn't afraid of a head-on confrontation in this mission; he was only afraid of the opponents splitting up and running, which was the most troublesome part.

And the remaining three were the most difficult to deal with.

Blackbeard was the BOSS, and Shiryu of the Rain, without Devil Fruit powers, likely had combat strength above that of a Vice Admiral, with almost no obvious weaknesses.

The other giant, San Juan Wolf, who was preparing to flee, was 180 meters tall. The power of a single casual slap from him was enough to cause more destruction than a dozen cannonballs exploding at once.

Shisui and the others dispersed and hid again, while Uchiha Tamahiko's clone focused on the battlefield, gathering intelligence.

He was ready to seize an opportunity at any moment, or to stop Blackbeard's plan.

With 20% of his Chakra, the clone could fight seriously, possessing at least 30% of the main body's strength. Besides not being able to summon the giant Susanoo, and his eye techniques, he could use all other Ninjutsu.

Shiryu of the Rain and Blackbeard began a fierce assault on Whitebeard Edward.

The Marine side was happy to see this. Sakazuki and Ace were clashing, and Sakazuki couldn't completely suppress Ace and defeat him in a short time.

Meanwhile, Kuzan was fighting Marco. The Sea Stone handcuffs on Kuzan's hands had been unlocked by a crewmate with lock-picking skills, as the lock's mechanism was too simple.

Borsalino kept exclaiming, "Oh, so scary, so scary," while continuously firing lasers at the Moby Dick.

The frost on Diamond Jozu's body was melted by Marco's phoenix flames. He was frantically trying to block Borsalino's laser attacks.

The Marine was pleased with this situation because this was their home base, and they weren't afraid of attrition.

Sengoku was still wary of Whitebeard Edward, watching the battle between Blackbeard Teach and Whitebeard Edward with a menacing gaze, ready to prevent Whitebeard Edward from being cornered and making a desperate move.

As enemies for so many years, he understood the old man's thoughts very well.

The Shichibukai, on the other hand, were all watching the show, seemingly blocked by the fissure Whitebeard had created, and didn't continue to attack.

"Is this Whitebeard?"

"He struggles even to parry my slashes; how can he be the strongest man in this world?"

Shiryu of the Rain's face showed a crazed expression.

He continuously swung his weapon with his right hand, engaging Whitebeard in close-quarters combat.

This was the most difficult fighting style for Whitebeard Edward at this moment. His body was already failing him and wasn't suited for such intense close-range combat.

If he had continuously used his Devil Fruit power, he could have lasted much longer.

But now, he felt his life was truly nearing its end.

"Brat, you're a hundred years too early to defeat me!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Whitebeard swung his Murakumogiri, imbued with Tremor power, directly at the two youngsters in front of him.

At the same time, he forcefully released Tremor power behind him with his left hand.

Although he boasted fiercely, Shiryu of the Rain dared not directly withstand the Tremor power. Upon realizing Whitebeard was attacking, he unhesitatingly chose to hide behind Blackbeard, letting him absorb the Tremor power completely.

Whitebeard's attack behind him was directed at Sakazuki.

"Get out of here!!!"

"Do you want to see your old man die for nothing!!!"

Whitebeard Edward continued to shout, and as his words fell, blood spilled from his mouth.

He didn't care about his own death, but he acknowledged his sons' desire to save him, and there was no need to continue like this.

The Tremor power instantly forced Sakazuki to directly endure it.

After all, Ace in front of him could use Armament Haki, and if Sakazuki used his elemental form to resist the impact, that youngster would find an opening.

"Pops!"

Ace and the others were in tears.

Meanwhile, Blackbeard Teach felt that the realization of his plan was getting closer and closer!

Seeing Pops spit blood, he immediately charged towards Whitebeard Edward, intending to take his life.

"Teach, do you really think my combat strength was only at that level just now!!"

Whitebeard Edward's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Blackbeard Teach charging towards him, raising his Murakumogiri once more.

Blackbeard felt a palpitation, as if the surrounding space had frozen. His whole body prickled with fear as he recalled Pops's achievements over the years.

He immediately stopped, raising his hand to release Dark Water and absorb the impact.

Shiryu of the Rain, however, had no intention of sacrificing himself for Blackbeard. He didn't charge forward with Blackbeard Teach but remained on the side like a venomous snake, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

"Buzz!!"

The Murakumogiri's blade was instantly covered in Armament Haki.

Even red electrical arcs continuously flickered around the weapon.

This was a powerful strike imbued with the outward manifestation of Conqueror's Haki.

Whitebeard Edward at this moment seemed to have returned to his peak, unleashing his strongest attack from his prime.

Blackbeard Teach, however, had no time to dodge and regretted his impulsive charge forward.

He raised both hands, and black mist almost completely covered the space in front of him. He prepared to use the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit to completely absorb the incoming attack, a fierce expression appearing on his face.

From today onwards, he would no longer fear this man!

"Boom!!"

Instantly, the ground, with Whitebeard as the center, within a diameter of nearly two hundred meters, the outermost edges of the ground immediately caved in by almost thirty centimeters. The closer to Whitebeard's position, the deeper the depression, and at the same time, the ground's flagstones shattered into pieces of varying sizes.

One second later, these gravel were directly shaken into the air, scattering in all directions like bullets, causing the surrounding Marines to cower and run for cover.
