Chapter 464: 465 Intense Collision, Luffy Sneak in
The combined forces of magma, fire, ice, and vibration strained the space to its limit, as if it could shatter at any moment.
The intense energy kept spreading, with each force erupting at the center like a series of sunbursts, creating countless small explosions in an instant.
The impact shook everyone, but most of the vibrations were directed at the ground beneath Whitebeard.
The impact completely shattered the ground beneath Whitebeard, creating a deep, cylindrical pit over fifty meters wide. The pit quickly filled with magma.
The world's strongest fighters gathered, their powerful attacks almost tearing the sky apart, as if punching a hole through it.
The impact created a deafening noise, like an earthquake combined with countless explosions. The rumbling sound immediately drew the attention of everyone on the battlefield.
Marine and the Whitebeard Pirates were in fierce combat when a sudden vibration and loud noise interrupted them, startling everyone from a distance.
For a moment, everyone stopped moving, unsure of what had happened.
The strong vibration was clearly caused by a powerful attack, and everyone was curious about it.
This kind of attack could decide the outcome of the battle, so everyone paid close attention to it
However, the people of the Whitebeard Pirates group obviously have a better mentality. In their cognition, such a powerful force can only be caused by Whitebeard, because it is impossible for anyone except Whitebeard to burst out such a force.
"Is that Dad's power? Has he defeated Marine's Fleet Admiral and Admiral? It seems that this battle has been decided."
Marco muttered as he watched from a distance, though even from his high point, he couldn't see Whitebeard or the others fighting.
The rumbling sound could be heard from far away, making it clear how terrifying the scene was. Even a strong man approaching recklessly would likely only end up in disaster.
"This is the signal for victory! Rally your spirits and defeat Marine quickly!"
Jozu shouted loudly, and everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates fought with renewed strength, while Marine forces, severely weakened, were pushed back further.
The explosion also knocked Crocodile and his group into the sea.
They had been moving toward the coast but were unable to withstand the force of the blast and were thrown out into the water.
During this time, Luffy inflated his body like balloon, grabbed everyone, and floated above the sea.
"Damn, it's too dangerous. Is this Whitebeard's power? It feels stronger than Kaido"
Apoo sighed. Despite being far from the battle, they were still affected.
"It's really dangerous. We almost died. If we had, there'd be no way to explain it," Bonney said, frightened.
They were all holding onto Luffy's body, floating in the air.
"What should we do now? We can't just keep floating," Urouge asked.
"Luffy, can you control the direction? We need to go back," Nami said to Luffy.
"It can be, but you need to hold on to me." Luffy then changed direction and quickly exhaled, moving backward like a deflating balloon.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
But the result was goog. Everyone finally made it back to the coast and began to rest.
"Hey, it was meant to take down the Marine battleship, but now everyone's been affected, so the next action will probably be canceled," Apoo said with a sigh.
The recent vibration was so intense that almost everyone was injured. Their current condition is definitely not good enough to support a dive into the Marine battleship.
"I'm fine, there's nothing to me. Let me go next. It'll be easier to sneak in with fewer people," Crocodile said.
Since his body is Logia, the vibration didn't hurt him. After speaking, Luffy immediately got up.
"Crocodile, let's go together. I'm fine,"
Luffy said with a smile. Once a plan is made, Luffy is determined to follow through, especially since his rubber body doesn't feel pain.
Therefore, afterwards, Crocodile and Luffy went on alone.
The others retreated slowly, unable to stay and wait indefinitely, as more impacts could happen at any time.
Crocodile, disguised as sand, carried Luffy forward. They evaded the warships' scans and successfully sneaked onto one of the ships.
Crocodile used his fruit ability to stun all the personnel on the battleship. With his sand power, he quickly covered their mouths, stopping them from making any noise.
After dealing with everyone, Crocodile went to the control room on the battleship. From there, he could see the control panels for various weapons and also watch the view in front of the battleship—Whitebeard and Akainu's battle, though it was somewhat obscured.
"Mugiwara, come here," Crocodile shouted at the screen.
After calling for a while with no response, he looked back and saw that Luffy was no longer in sight.
"This guy, where did he go…" Crocodile muttered, feeling a bit helpless.
He wanted to leave Luffy behind but was worried that Luffy might alert the Marines, so he decided to go find him.
Meanwhile, Luffy happily explored the second floor of the battleship, as if he were shopping. Many weapon systems were folded away here; when activated, they could extend outside the ship to attack enemies.
Luffy had never seen these strange weapons before. He looked at them like a country bumpkin seeing a city for the first time, with wide eyes and stars of excitement.
"Wow, what powerful weapons. The Marines are really amazing!" Luffy marveled as he looked around.
"Luffy, your kid was really here!" Crocodile's frustrated voice suddenly called out.
