Chapter 527 When the curtain falls

The latest website: For the Navy and the Whitebeard Pirates, this war is won or lost.

Waiting for their results will be devastated.

The Maud Pirates are different.

Win or lose.

Maud will always watch over the safety of his comrades.

Only when everyone is safe can we win.

If they fail, they must also ensure that all members retreat.

now.

Maud sits on the Shadow Throne.

This move is the winning ticket.

on the battlefield.

The situation that had been ups and downs was gradually becoming clearer at this moment.

There are less than a thousand pirates headed by the Whitebeard Pirates, and it is difficult to effectively resist the offensive from the navy.

And the navy that can suppress many pirates such as the Whitebeard Pirates is also difficult to resist the attack of the Maud Pirates, which has been greatly enhanced by the shadow.

As the time goes.

The Navy is downsizing, and so is the Whitebeard Pirates.

Only the Maud Pirates survived.

All of this comes from the shadow of all living beings of Maud.

Maud's eyes swept across the battlefield, watching the war coming to an end as a bystander.

Directly in front of him is Fujitora, who is trapped under the siege of an endless stream of shadows.

To others, it looks like a fight between beasts.

Fujitora is unable to solve the current predicament, and naturally cannot help the navy on the battlefield.

And his injuries are getting worse.

The only thing that should be fortunate is that Maud did not raise the butcher's knife to the Navy on the field after he shot and trapped him.

if not--

With the overwhelming terror of Maud,

Combined with the Maud Pirates who are on full fire, I am afraid that the navy will be defeated in a short period of time.

But Maud didn't do that.

Such actions should be releasing goodwill to him.

Fujitora's mood was always complicated.

"Humanity..."

In the dark vision, there is the pure and incomparable emotional light of Maud.

Fujitora sighed inwardly.

His eyes can't see, but he can discern the situation on the field.

From the moment Kizaru fell, from the moment Maud's beings gave strength to Aokiji Lafayette and others...

Fujitora, who is here, can't see the slightest chance of winning...

Continuing to hold on is just an unnecessary sacrifice.

Therefore, the best option is to admit defeat, and then withdraw decisively, even if it will be held accountable afterwards.

The injuries in his body were accumulating and getting worse, and Fujitora finally made a decision.

But before that, he has to break through the tide of Maud.

"Uninterrupted. Tiger."

Fujitora suddenly used his abilities to the fullest.

It seemed that the injury was drawn, and the blood dripping from his nose and mouth suddenly increased.

However, he didn't care and concentrated on mobilizing his energy.

In an instant-

The ubiquitous linear gravity rains down from the sky.

A soft but not harsh light renders the sky a deep purple.

The unseen gravitational field instantly pressed the shadow tide coming from all directions to the ground, thus choking off Maud's attack.

"Huh, huh..."

Fujitora gasped heavily, and slowly returned the sword to its sheath.

The sharp-edged blade suddenly turned into an unpretentious crutch.

Leaning on crutches, Fujitora walked slowly towards the shadow throne in the distance, facing the falling linear gravity field.

Every time he took a step, there was a little blood on the ground.

Since the fierce battle, his injuries have reached a level that cannot be ignored, and a move like the one that maximizes his ability just now will definitely not be used a second time.

Maud looked over.

Seeing that Shadow Tide was suppressed by the gravitational field, he had no plans to intensify his offensive, so he let Fujitora come over.

It wasn't a long distance, but Fujitora walked for dozens of seconds.

He came to the Shadow Throne, his slightly open eyes facing Maud on the throne.

And Maud's eyes turned to him.

Between the two, there seemed to be eyes intertwined in mid-air.

Only no one spoke.

Some things are unspoken.

After about ten seconds.

Fujitora continued to walk forward on crutches, passing over the Shadow Throne in just a moment.

Maud stared ahead, letting Fujitora pass by.

he knows--

The war should end.

With his victory, the naval defeat ushered in the final result.

Maud's stoppage allowed Fujitora to finally overcome the biggest obstacle and come to the most intense battlefield.

The navies who were fighting fiercely noticed Fujitora's arrival, and they were all refreshed and excited.

For a moment.

They thought that Fujitora had crossed Maud's mountain and that's why they came here.

but don't know...

The moment Fujitora stepped into the battlefield, it also represented another defeat for the Navy.

The navy, as an unstoppable overlord on the sea, has been defeated by Maud twice.

After this war is over, maybe it's time to think about why.

Fujitora stepped into the battlefield.

His arrival not only attracted the attention of the navy, but also attracted the attention of the pirates present.

The pirates were slightly startled, and quickly looked towards Maud again.

After confirming that Maud was in no trouble, he was puzzled.

"Why let Fujitora come over?"

While the pirates were puzzled, a solemn meaning appeared in their hearts.

On the other hand, the reaction of everyone in the Morde Pirates was calm.

To them, whatever Maud does, it makes sense.

Therefore, not only will they not be confused, but they will also accept the current situation for the first time.

Facing the gazes of many Taoists, Fujitora's sense of seeing and hearing shrouded the audience, and he instantly grasped the positions of all his colleagues.

Immediately afterwards, a faint purple light appeared on Fujitora's body.

This is a sign before the ability is used.

"Damn!"

Many pirates on the field thought that Fujitora would use his ability to deal with them, and their expressions changed.

They were already in a disadvantageous situation, and if Fujitora entered the war, it would probably be the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Fujitora was expressionless.

Under his control, the gravitational field descended from the sky.

Not to attack the pirates, but to use the gravitational field to divide the battlefield with extremely precise control.

"Um?!"

The unexpected result made the pirates a false alarm, while the navy was puzzled.

Immediately, one after another, suspicious eyes looked at Fujitora through the gravitational field.

"Listen."

Fujitora raised his hand into a fist, and said concisely: "Take the wounded and retreat."

A commanding voice spread throughout the audience.

The navy, who had already killed some red eyes, did not understand why Fujitora gave the order to retreat at such a time.

But obeying orders is the duty of a soldier.

Even though there were many puzzles in their hearts, the navy in the field still obeyed Fujitora's order, and under the cover of the gravity field, they managed to retreat in an orderly manner with the wounded.

Fujitora took this scene into his "eyes" and slowly lowered his arm.

"The Navy is...?!"

Watching the navy's rapid retreat, the pirates were either shocked or stunned.

Among them, many of them are almost unable to support it.

And Fujitora's admission at this time is simply the worst news for them.

However, the expected situation did not happen.

Instead of doing anything, Fujitora ordered the navy to withdraw.

What's the matter with this kind of behavior that seems to suddenly let them go?

"Did that guy do something?"

Ace panted slightly, gritted his teeth and looked at Maud sitting on the Shadow Throne.

The temporary joint operation does not mean that Ace can let go of the hatred of Maud to kill Dad, kill Marco, and kill many family members.

The eyes that looked at Maud were full of anger and murderous intent.

The navy retreated one after another under the cover of the gravitational field, so tired or injured pirates would not be foolish enough to pursue.

Before getting a clear order from Maud, the members of the Maud Pirates who were in good condition did not pursue the navy, but looked at Maud on the Shadow Throne.

The other pirates also realized that the navy's inexplicable withdrawal move was most likely caused by Maud, and couldn't help but look at Maud.

Many navies who are in the game without knowing the situation naturally guessed that it may be that Admiral Fujitora and Maud had some kind of negotiation that they did not know, so they would let them retreat.

The resulting doubts caused the eyes of the navy to wander between Fujitora and Maud.

They did not agree with Fujitora's decision under the circumstances.

But whether they agree or not, they have to obey orders.

Although Fujitora's eyesight couldn't read his inner thoughts, he could vaguely sense the opinions of his colleagues, and he sighed in his heart.

With his hands on crutches trembling slightly, he was at the end of the line.

In this case, he was forced to use gravity to divide the battlefield, which made him almost reach the limit.

Now, it is invincible...

How can this inevitable war be allowed to continue?

The navy retreats, but the pirates do not move.

On the Shadow Throne.

Maud slowly got up and faced the battlefield.

Under his gaze, the navy pulled each other out of the fight and stepped back behind Fujitora.

And the pirates who stood still, gathered together silently.

Maud's eyes swept across the crowd on the battlefield, and then gestured to his companions to withdraw.

When Lafayette and the others saw Maud's gesture, they immediately withdrew from the battlefield and returned to Maud's side as quickly as possible.

At this moment, the three forces all stopped and looked at each other across the air.

Compared to before, the battlefield has become very quiet.

After a while.

Fujitora turned around suddenly and walked towards the coastline.

The meaning of this action is very obvious.

Seeing Fujitora's actions, there was some commotion in the naval camp.

Some navy advocates fighting to the death to the end, although they obeyed the order, they were inevitably unhappy.

But no matter how unhappy they are...

When other colleagues obeyed Fujitora's order to withdraw their troops, they could only follow the trend obediently.

More than half of them were sacrificed, and there were only about 20,000 navies left, and they retreated in an orderly manner towards the coastline.

The pirates headed by the Whitebeard Pirates looked at the retreating navy, but they didn't seem to relax at all.

because.

There is also a formidable enemy on the field that is more difficult to deal with than the navy!

Ace and the others looked at Maud with hostility in their eyes.

They are in a passive position, and there is really no way to change the situation on the field with their strength.

So even if the navy decides to retreat temporarily, they can only watch and do nothing.

Maud noticed the eyes looking over from the Whitebeard Pirates, so he squinted.

A good player like Esbista didn't hide his hostility.

As far as behavior goes, it's kind of stupid.

But it is also understandable.

After all he killed Whitebeard and Marco.

This heavy hatred cannot be resolved no matter what.

only……

Seeing Sabo's face, and considering Rayleigh Jabba, and even... the thought of Thor, who has passed away, Maud will at least keep Ace alive.

"Boom!"

Just as Maud's thoughts were turning, a loud noise suddenly came from behind.

"Um?"

Maud frowned slightly and looked back at the source of the sound.

I saw that the upper part of Navigation Mountain was already shrouded in monstrous black smoke.

Seen from a distance, there are flames flickering in the black smoke, which looks like a volcanic eruption.

"Volcano eruption?"

"Eh? Is that a volcano?!"

"But haven't you been spraying water before?!"

The sudden and huge movement made most of the people present look at the Navigation Mountain shrouded in fire and black smoke.

The scene that came into their eyes made them take it for granted that this was a volcanic eruption, but what followed was a question that no one could answer.

because……

The top of Navigation Mountain had been spewing water jets all the time.

The reason why the air on the island is so humid is inseparable from the giant fountain at the top of Navigation Mountain.

So it's hard to associate the previous Navigation Hill with the one now shrouded in fire and black smoke.

but.

Their doubts soon disappeared.

"Boom--"

A dull sound like rolling thunder came from the black smoke that enveloped Navigation Mountain.

A large amount of turbulent sea water spewed out from nowhere, rushing out from the black smoke, and fell heavily on the steep mountain.

The waves splashed and the sound was like rolling thunder.

As if the endless sea water swept along the cliff towards the ground, there was a tsunami in an instant, which would devour everything on the island.

at the same time.

The scattered small lakes scattered on the island were also affected by some kind of impact, and they spewed water columns.

If there are people in this world with the power of water fruit...

So.

The surging tsunami and countless soaring water columns that appeared in front of him must be the moves driven by those with the ability of water fruit.

A huge tsunami swept over, and everyone in the Maud Pirates who was closest to Navigation Mountain took the lead in reacting.

With their average monthly steps, they stepped on the air without hesitation and ascended to the sky.

In this way, this tsunami, which can easily engulf land, is unlikely to threaten them.

But the pirates with less than a thousand people on land and the 20,000 navy that are evacuating are different.

Needless to say, there are only a handful of people who can fly to the sky, and they can only watch the tsunami coming.

In the navy camp, the vast majority of the elites of the navy can master the six-style, but not every navy can master all the six-style.

Some navies know two or three styles, and more navies only know one style.

Only a few navies know how to use each of the six moves.

Coupled with a lot of wounded, it is obviously impossible for everyone to use the moon step to avoid the tsunami.

Under such circumstances, Fujitora did his part to let him go.

However, when he was about to reach the limit, even if he used his last strength to summon horizontal gravity, it was impossible to block this huge tsunami in all directions.

"Can't you stop..."

Fujitora looked at the tsunami with a solemn expression, and a large area of ​​his clothes was dyed red with blood.

Seriously injured, he was more than capable of protecting himself.

But it is absolutely impossible to protect all the navies.

In such an urgent and critical situation, the members of the Maud Pirates stayed out of the sky above.

It is foreseeable that-

This tsunami, which is enough to spread to the entire Mercury Island, will brutally take the lives of the vast majority of people in the arena.
