Chapter 210: Assassinating the Transcender! Peak Whitebeard Arrives

Boom!

The walls within the bay suddenly began to rise.

In just a few breaths, the Moby Dick and two other ships from the Whitebeard Pirates were completely encircled.

Although the walls weren't high enough to trap the top fighters, they effectively cut off the escape routes for the ordinary pirates.

Then, from the cracks in the walls, a multitude of cannons emerged, all aiming directly at the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Fire!!"

A Marine officer shouted the command.

Immediately—

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The deafening sound of cannon fire filled the air.

Countless black cannonballs launched from the walls, raining down on the pirates.

Explosions erupted everywhere in the bay.

Although the division commanders gave it their all to intercept the projectiles, there were simply too many. Casualties among the pirate underlings mounted at an alarming rate.

And that wasn't all.

Admiral Akainu, now free from Luffy's assault, unleashed his devastating wide-area attack, Meteor Volcano!

Massive chunks of molten lava shot into the sky, only to rain down at high speed, bombarding the Whitebeard Pirates with devastating force.

This technique was exceedingly powerful.

The speed of the falling magma amplified its destructive capabilities, making even the division commanders wary of intercepting it.

Within moments, the bay transformed into a sea of flames.

The Whitebeard Pirates' casualties became immeasurable.

This entire situation seemed far too coordinated.

It was as if the Marines had anticipated Whitebeard's underwater attack all along and had prepared this elaborate trap.

"This is a trap!!"

Kawashima Nao screamed, turning anxiously to Whitebeard. "Pops, the Marines knew your plan! They've set this trap to catch you all!"

After yelling, her eyes darted toward Qin Muyin.

In her mind, Qin Muyin must have known the future events, allowing the Marines to prepare in advance.

Whitebeard didn't need Kawashima Nao's warning to see that their supposedly brilliant strategy had already been exposed and countered by the Marine high command.

The man, known as the strongest in the world, watched his crew suffer heavy losses, his eyes burning with fury.

Whitebeard glanced briefly at Fleet Admiral Sengoku on the high platform before raising his massive naginata. Channeling the power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit, he infused his weapon with quake energy, concentrating it along the blade.

Suddenly—

A massive white energy sphere appeared around the blade.

"Haah!"

Whitebeard roared and swung his weapon.

Whoosh!

The sound of the blade slicing through the air was deafening.

The ocean itself split apart, and a giant white energy sphere shot from the blade, hurtling toward the surrounding walls.

Boom!

After the explosion, the walls remained completely intact.

Clearly, these barriers were made from extraordinary materials, likely reinforced with Seastone, rendering them immune to Whitebeard's fruit-based attacks.

Seeing that his full-power strike had no effect, Whitebeard's expression darkened.

Kawashima Nao's face also turned grim.

As if realizing something, she clenched her teeth and pulled a pill from her pocket.

"Pops, at this rate, your forces will be annihilated before you even reach the plaza."

"This pill I have has miraculous effects—it will instantly restore your body to its peak condition. But the effects only last for half an hour."

Her voice carried urgency, but she deliberately omitted the pill's side effects.

Once Whitebeard consumed it, his body would experience immense backlash after the effects wore off, plunging him into a state of extreme weakness.

At Whitebeard's age and with his current physical condition, taking such a pill might very well kill him!

"Gurarara... Such a thing exists?"

Whitebeard took the pill from Kawashima Nao, gazing at it for a moment before clutching it in his massive hand, his expression unreadable.

In his enormous palm, the pill—already small for a normal person—looked utterly insignificant.

"Half an hour is enough!"

Whitebeard murmured before decisively swallowing the pill without hesitation.

He wasn't concerned about it being poison.

Even if it were a deadly toxin, his powerful body and resilience wouldn't succumb immediately.

More importantly, Kawashima Nao was right—if things continued as they were, the Whitebeard Pirates wouldn't even reach the Marine Headquarters' plaza. Their escape routes were already blocked.

If they failed now, forget rescuing Ace—every one of them would perish here.

Thus, Whitebeard had no choice but to gamble!

Even though Kawashima Nao didn't mention the pill's side effects, Whitebeard knew that any drug capable of temporarily restoring peak strength must come with significant drawbacks.

But Whitebeard didn't care.

Before coming here, he had already prepared himself to die on this battlefield.

For someone like him, slowly wasting away from illness or old age was a miserable fate.

To die in battle, leaving behind a legend—that was the ending he desired!

...

Seeing Whitebeard swallow the pill, a flash of pain crossed Kawashima Nao's face.

The pill had cost her hundreds of plot points to acquire.

She had intended to save it for a critical moment, but the current crisis left her no choice but to use it now.

Kawashima Nao had meticulously planned for this war atop Marineford, aiming to alter the course of the story and earn a massive influx of plot points to become invincible.

This battle could not fail.

"Pops, take your time adjusting to your restored body. I'll go help out for now!"

After saying this, Kawashima Nao leapt off the ship and landed on the water.

"Ice Age!"

She shouted, unleashing a freezing ray from both hands that struck the sea's surface.

Immediately—

The once-turbulent waters calmed and froze solid, transforming into a massive sheet of ice.

In the blink of an eye, the entire bay turned into an enormous frozen plain.

This gave the pirates a foothold, allowing them to avoid the constant barrage of cannonballs and alleviating their dire situation somewhat.

...

On the other side of the battlefield, Qin Muyin soared toward the bay.

As a Marine Admiral, her every move was highly noticeable.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku, seeing her action, said nothing.

As long as Qin Muyin was attacking pirates, it didn't matter to him.

What no one noticed was a man dressed in a Marine soldier's uniform moving quickly across the plaza, heading toward the bay.

Qin Muyin flew swiftly, arriving above the bay in moments.

Akainu's Meteor Volcano attack continued, but it posed no threat to her.

Her perception far exceeded that of standard Observation Haki, allowing her to easily evade the molten projectiles.

Once above the bay, Qin Muyin immediately locked onto Kawashima Nao.

With a wave of her hand, a volley of projectiles shot toward Kawashima Nao.

Kawashima Nao, confident in her abilities, didn't take the attack seriously and activated her elemental transformation.

But the next moment, something felt off.

"Ugh!"

One of the projectiles pierced her elementalized arm, striking her true form and drawing blood.

"Seastone weapons?"

"Despicable!!"

Kawashima Nao screamed as she quickly dodged, shouting to Whitebeard on the deck, "Pops, save me!!"

At that moment, a "Marine soldier" had already entered the bay and was rapidly approaching Kawashima Nao across the ice.
