Chapter 147: The giant iron ball Shana moves, and the tornado fills in with the giant meteorite.
Even in her deepest heart, she still strongly supported this Pirate Crew of beautiful girls her age.
Of course, it wasn't just them; even some other legion commanders and cadres thought the same.
"I've said it before, the captain of this Pirate Crew is extraordinary, don't look at her as only being around my son's age right now," Dragon said with a confident expression, while also eagerly anticipating this battle… The Straw Hat Pirates, still in Water Seven.
And Iceberg and Franky at Galley-La Company.
They had worries, but more than that, they silently cheered on the Pink Hat Pirates in their hearts.
Only Luffy looked terrified, watching his grandfather on the screen, feeling his head inexplicably ache again… Marineford.
Sengoku and Tsuru, along with other Navy High Command, were also watching this live broadcast. They silently cheered for the Marines in their hearts, hoping they would definitely win this time, or at least not lose in a disgraceful manner.
Meanwhile, the Gorosei of the World Government also paid close attention.
After all, another Devil Fruit, named after a god, which they had not understood before, seemed to have appeared.
Coupled with Luna's strength, they now even elevated Luna's threat to the World Government and the Celestial Dragons above Luffy's.
After all, the nika fruit hadn't awakened for almost 800 years, and they weren't optimistic about whether Luffy could awaken it.
Unlike Luna, she now undeniably possessed top Four Emperors-level combat power… At this moment, both sides were ready.
On the Pink Hat Pirates' side, Shiro had all the robots return to the pirate ship's cabin, and all members of the Bei Group prepared for battle.
After all, robots were fine for guarding, but not for actual combat. This time was the perfect opportunity for the Bei Group to conduct practical combat experiments.
Including the Bei Group, the Pink Hat Pirates had 17 members.
On the Marine side, there were five top-tier powerhouses, five Vice Admirals, and hundreds of Marine Soldiers.
In the eyes of many who didn't know the truth, they all believed the Marines were sure to win this time, even some top-tier powerhouses thought so. However, the Marines, who had faced them many times, clearly understood that taking down the Pink Hat Pirates would be very difficult, even harder than taking down a Four Emperor Crew.
After an unknown period of standoff, with a gust of sea breeze, the battle finally began.
"Haha, Aokiji," Garp laughed loudly, turning his head slightly.
"Hmph, Nojiko," Luna sneered, saying the same.
"Ice Age." Aokiji nodded, then leaped into the air, extending both palms and releasing Freezing cold breath to both sides.
"Ice Seal." Nojiko also nodded on her side. Snowflakes swirled around her, lifting her into the air. With her hands forward, she released a breath of ice.
Both simultaneously unleashed Freezing abilities, hitting the sea.
Large amounts of seawater began to freeze into ice, and the air also grew cold.
At the same time, the ice-type Devil Fruit Users from both sides began their showdown.
Aokiji was stronger than Nojiko, but as fellow ice-type Devil Fruit Users, the Ice Sky Snow Woman Fruit Mythical Zoan was much stronger than the Freeze-Freeze Fruit.
With one adding and one subtracting, the two sides surprisingly ended up evenly matched. Aokiji's ice was closer to silver and white, while Nojiko's ice leaned more towards blue.
Ultimately, the two colors of ice each occupied half of the completely frozen sea area.
The Pink Hat Pirates' pirate ship and Garp's warship were simultaneously frozen in the ice.
The entire icy sea surface immediately became bitterly cold, with snowflakes dancing. On some ice surfaces, there were several icebergs or ice spikes. This was truly a massive, beautiful, yet dangerous ice battlefield.
"Yo, not bad at all. Is this the power of the Ice Sky Snow Woman Fruit? It truly lives up to its reputation," Aokiji said with a surprised expression.
He suddenly remembered his previous battles with Tatsumaki and Luna, and he had forgotten that this was the ice-type beauty in the Pink Hat Pirates he originally cared about most.
At the same time, he had to admit that if Nojiko were allowed to grow for a while longer, her ice would be no worse than his own, especially since she also controlled snow.
Of course, Aokiji didn't know, but perhaps he would soon, that Nojiko was actually his bane.
"You're not bad either, worthy of being the strongest ice-type Logia Type Devil Fruit."
Nojiko smiled. At the same time, she was a little excited and thrilled. She hadn't expected that she would actually have a chance to speak as an equal with such a strong opponent. This small excitement and thrill also extended to the upcoming battle.
"Aokiji, stop boasting! Get out of the way, I'm going to unleash my ultimate move!"
---------------------------------
Chapter 148 Garp pulled out a gigantic
Garp roared loudly. Just like other Marines seeing this scene, he felt a bit dissatisfied. Was this a battle or a chat session for them?
Of course, the audience watching the live broadcast now, as well as Morgans and those responsible for filming, watched with great relish and enthusiasm.
However, many people were also very curious and eager to know what move Garp would make next.
But in the next moment, Garp pulled out a gigantic, pitch-black iron ball from somewhere, even much larger than Luna and her Pirate Crew's pirate ship, with an iron chain attached to it.
Garp raised the chain and swung it violently. The giant iron ball immediately flew up, like a black cloud pressing down, and soon appeared above Luna and her crew.
Its volume was enough to cover the entire pirate ship, weighing approximately ten tons or more, and it looked extremely oppressive.
Many viewers who saw this scene were terrified, but many top-tier powerhouses were disdainful, believing this move could only deal with weaker opponents.
Was Garp saying hello? But they were also curious how the entire Pink Hat Pirates, who currently looked completely unburdened and even had smiles on their faces, would face it.
"Captain, may I show off a bit?" Sana said with a gentle smile, as if in her eyes, there was no giant iron ball about to fall.
"Go ahead," Luna said with a faint smile.
"Awooo…!!" Upon receiving the order, Sana immediately let out a tiger's roar to the sky. She activated the White Tiger power within her, leaping out lightly. To everyone's disbelief, she directly transformed into a White Tiger Human. With the Explosion Fist on her arm, she immediately punched out.
With a bang, the iron ball was temporarily stopped. Then, Sana roared again, transforming into a gigantic White Tiger whose size was no less than Kaido's Azure Dragon form, with all four limbs planted on the ice surface.
Sana effortlessly caught the giant iron ball with her tiger paw, then used her other tiger claw to sever the chain. She then swung it forcefully, sending it flying. The giant iron ball smashed into the ice surface, creating a massive shockwave and a loud crash.
"White Tiger Fruit User." All the spectators who saw this scene couldn't help but be horrified, some even standing up.
"Damn it, another legendary Devil Fruit," Akainu said, burning with rage. Clearly, he was furious, even exasperated, that another legendary Devil Fruit User had appeared in the Pink Hat Pirates.
"The White Tiger Fruit, one of the Four Sacred Beasts Devil Fruits, grants the user the ability to control wind, as well as extremely strong close-combat abilities and attack power," Borsalino said with a serious expression.
"The items she was wearing on her hands were technological weapons. This little girl is not simple, everyone be careful," Aokiji also said with a serious expression.
"Got it," Kizaru said with a nonchalant demeanor, but in his heart, he was already fully alert and focused.
The audience watching this live broadcast was also very surprised at this moment. Another legendary Devil Fruit had appeared, and it was one of the Four Sacred Beasts fruits, the White Tiger Fruit.
This included many people, such as Big Mom, Whitebeard, Shanks, and Dragon. At this moment, Kaido was practically grinding his teeth, his face full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
White Tiger, Phoenix. He was truly envious.
If these little girls could survive this and come to the New World, he would definitely not let them off easily.
"Done," Sana said, transforming from a White Tiger back into a human, jumping back to her position with a confident and proud smile.
"Interesting, little girl, state your name."
Garp hadn't expected his ultimate move to be so easily neutralized by this little girl in front of him. Moreover, he hadn't seen this little girl before, and the Marines had no prior records of her. She was clearly a new face, a new member of the Pink Hat Pirates.
"Pink Hat Pirates' ninth crewmate, intelligence officer, Ogre Tribe girl Sana."
Sana introduced herself, and also brushed aside the ogre horn hidden in her white hair.
"Ogre Tribe." Everyone was surprised again, not expecting this little girl to be from the rare Ogre Tribe.
This was a powerful, world-renowned race, known to many, with the most typical example being Kaido, one of the current Four Emperors.
Kaido, watching the live broadcast now, was blinking frantically, stunned and bewildered. Good heavens, this little girl was not only a White Tiger Fruit User, but she was also an Ogre Tribe member, just like him and his rebellious "son."
But at this moment, the battle had to continue.
"It's rude not to reciprocate. Since you gave us a super-sized iron ball, we'll also give a big gift. Tatsumaki, let the Marines know how Dinosaurs went extinct!"
Luna laughed mischievously.
"Haha, alright, then I'll show you a trick," Tatsumaki also smiled slightly. As her words fell, she raised one hand, and the green light representing her Psychokinesis all over her body shone blindingly. Tatsumaki gently flicked her finger downwards.
Above the white clouds in the sky, a thunderous roar erupted, as if it would tear everything apart.
Hearing this sound, Garp and the others all looked up. The News Coo responsible for filming also pointed the camera skyward.
This allowed the audience watching the live broadcast to see a super-gigantic meteor, many times larger than the giant iron ball, suddenly breaking through the clouds, casting a huge shadow over the Marine side, burning the surrounding air and forming a large amount of flames.
Upon seeing this scene, many ordinary spectators immediately felt their legs go weak and became dazed. Even many Marine Soldiers on Garp's warship collapsed onto the deck.
Their faces were all filled with expressions of being scared senseless, a mix of smiles and tears.
