Thus, Teach's defeat was inevitable.

A swordsman who knows how to use guns— who could possibly withstand that?

The training within the Assassination Force, as previously mentioned, is unconventional; any means necessary to achieve a goal are permitted.

In this training mode, as the current commander of the Assassination Force, Dante greatly benefited.

He still relentlessly pursued the ultimate Murdering Sword technique as the "Marine Ghost Sword." However, the additional skills he acquired undoubtedly enriched his killing techniques, allowing him to better fulfill his role as the commander of the Assassination Force.

Swish!

With everything that needed to be said now expressed, Rowen raised his thunder halberd with one hand, pointing it at Teach. "If you have any other tricks, feel free to use them. If not... I think you can die here, Teach!"

Upon hearing this, Teach's face twisted into a grim smile. 

"Indeed, is it impossible?"

All the schemes seemed so laughable in front of the Soryu (Azure Dragon). Even if he repeated the earlier process, who could guarantee that he had revealed all of his hidden moves? 

"But let me tell you something, Soryu (Azure Dragon)!"

Suddenly, Teach lifted his head, his arms limp at his sides, yet his gaze remained firm.

"You can kill me, but you will never defeat me!"

"A person's dreams never end!!"

Blackbeard stood tall, his voice booming.

"As long as there are people being born, they will set sail with their dreams!"

"Your legend will one day come to an end!"

"But their stories will never finish! You can't kill them all, you can't wipe them out!"

"Jihahahaha! Hāhāhāhāhā!!!"

The fierce atmosphere mixed with resolute will made Blackbeard's voice clear and resonated through the broadcast, reaching the ears of everyone watching.

As the challenger, Teach had undoubtedly failed.

At this moment, when Whitebeard had been defeated and died, his final efforts had also been in vain, becoming a stepping stone that solidified the legendary life of Marine Soryu (Azure Dragon).

However, this did not mean that the pirate group had failed! 

As long as they did not give up, as long as there were still people who set sail with dreams, Teach believed… no, he firmly believed.

Whether it took ten years, twenty years, or a century! 

That thing called "miracle" would one day arrive!

But! 

"What the hell would I care about that!!!"

In response to Teach's declaration, Rowen shouted angrily.

Boom! 

Crack!

Rolling thunder surged through the heavens, thousands of electric snakes slithering among the dark clouds, as if doomsday was upon them, and the world was changing color.

"What you will do and what will happen in the future— what does it have to do with me?!"

Seeing the shock in Teach's eyes, Rowen's expression remained cold. Surrounded by the thunder, he appeared god-like, looking down on the world.

"This era belongs to the Marines, it belongs to me!"

"Who dares to challenge this?!!!"

Swish! 

With a wave of his hand, the platform holding the live Den Den Mushi suddenly exploded, the iron plate slowly floating toward Rowen under the magnetic field created by the electric currents, clearly revealing his face to everyone watching the broadcast.

"Is it you? Or you?"

The same question shifted from Marco and Hancock to everyone in the world.

As they gazed into Rowen's starry, brilliant eyes, countless viewers lowered their heads, fearing that by looking too long, they would attract the attention of the Soryu (Azure Dragon).

Rowen, through his actions, shattered the last illusions of the pirates, and with Whitebeard's death, he set the course for the era.

In the face of his brilliance, any rebuttal at this moment held no significance.

Because they didn't dare! 

Because they couldn't!

As if sensing the outside commotion, Rowen released his hand and turned to the live Den Den Mushi, exposing his undisguised contempt and disdain, allowing the image to spread across the seas.

Then, he ignored their thoughts and stared directly at Teach.

"People's dreams never end? Perhaps..." 

Calmly, Rowen raised his thunder halberd.

"But your dream will end here!!!"

Bang!!

A tremendous thunderclap erupted, causing a violent storm to break out in Marineford.

Rowen stood proudly amidst the brilliant lightning, casting a massive shadow that enveloped everything in front of him, his voice deafening.

"Remember, pirates!"

"In this era, if you want to talk about dreams, you must first defeat me!"

"Otherwise..."

At this point, Rowen boldly declared in front of the vast plaza of Marineford, the 100,000 Marines, and the hundreds of millions watching the live broadcast.

"Just like he said, like a worm, hiding in decaying, filthy dirt, struggling to survive in the dark, waiting for a future that I disdain to glance at!"

"I think you must be very happy with that... right?"

With that, Rowen violently swung the thunder halberd, shooting it straight out.

Teach wanted to resist, but that last move had already exhausted all the bones in his arm, and now the only limb he could move was his left leg.

Faced with the Soryu (Azure Dragon), who came crashing in like a storm of thunder, this meager strength was utterly insufficient for effective resistance!

Sizzle...!!!

The domineering and fierce thunder halberd pierced through Teach's chest, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood, his eyes wide in shock.

However, Rowen did not slow down after piercing him; instead, he charged forward several meters and suddenly leaped.

Whiz! 

Boom!!

In mid-air, he traced an arc as the two of them landed heavily on the iron plate at Bay Port, blinding lightning streaming into the gaping wound in Teach's chest.

At the same time, Rowen suddenly turned around and thrust the tail end of the thunder halberd with great force into the steel.

"Ugh…!!"

The tremors shattered Teach's insides, and he struggled wildly, like a fish speared on the end of a harpoon, thrashing his broken body.

But at this moment, his life was gradually drawing to a close. The constant healing and harm he received under the thunder only accelerated this process to an extreme.

So no matter how much Teach struggled, he could not escape the thunder halberd.

The thunderlight illuminated him, rendering his pitiful figure utterly gray and powerless in the broadcast.

Through the shadow cast by the light, one could see Teach transition from struggle to weakness, from weakness to exhaustion, and finally losing all strength, his limbs drooping as he fell silent.

Completing everything with the classic pose of a piercing spear, Rowen turned to look at the pirates and Marines still engaged in battle in the distance, roaring, 

"It's over, pirates!"

"Surrender or die!"

With his back against the corpses of Whitebeard and Teach, the thunderlight cast Rowen's figure in an incredibly brilliant glow.

Hearing this furious roar, a pirate among the fighting suddenly dropped his weapon and sank to his knees.

"I... I surrender!"

"You Bastard! Get up! We are the Whitebeard Pirates!"

His companion next to him looked on in disbelief, angrily trying to stop him... but then he was pierced through the chest by a Vice Admiral, who saw an opportunity, losing his life before the poison of the famed blade, 'Puffer Poison', could spread throughout his body.

Swish!

Turning to shake the blood from his blade, Stonobelly exchanged glances with a few nearby colleagues and shouted together.

"The war is over! Surrender or die!!"

"The war is over! Surrender or die!!"

Gradually, this cry transformed from sparse murmurs to a thunderous roar. Koby picked up his weapon and rejoined the fight, crying and yelling, 

"The war is over! Surrender or die… hurry and surrender!"

Ding ding clang... 

With the first surrender, there would surely be a second.

Among the fleeing pirates, some were occasionally struck with fear, trampling the honor of being a member of the Whitebeard Pirates into the mud, trembling as they crawled down.

"I surrender! I surrender! Don't kill me!"

The magma Iron Fist stopped just a centimeter away, and Akainu impatiently clicked his tongue, retracting his fist and continuing to pounce on the remaining pirates.

He was undeniably aggressive, but in the face of such critical matters, he could still distinguish clearly.

Seeing the once-mighty Whitebeard Pirates, who had dominated the seas, now abandoning their past glory like lost dogs to choose surrender, the viewers watching the broadcast turned their heads away in pity.

Nothing was more terrifying than losing dignity.

Under the might of the Soryu (Azure Dragon), the New World Monsters— the Whitebeard Pirates, who had long been feared by the world— were utterly obliterated here.
