Phoenix Reborn In One Piece-Chapter 253: Whitebeard’s Final Order!

"Dragon Claw Fist!"

"Dragon's Breath!"

Just as Sengoku's shockwave was about to hit Rayleigh and Ace, Sabo rushed in without hesitation, countering the attack with his own blast.

**Boom!!!**

A massive explosion erupted, sending shockwaves outward. In an instant, the surrounding buildings were completely destroyed!

Sabo landed and shouted toward Rayleigh, "Rayleigh-san!"

Rayleigh immediately understood and threw Ace away with all his strength!

"Not a chance!"

"Great Flame Commandment: Flame Emperor!!"

Akainu, furious at the sight, launched a magma attack at Ace mid-air, even from a great distance.

"Yasakani no Magatama!"

Not to be outdone, Kizaru flew into the air and fired countless laser beams at the falling trio!

"Quake Blade!!!"

Seeing that Ace was just about to be saved, Whitebeard would never let their attacks land!

With a mighty swing of Murakumogiri, he sliced through the space between them. Instantly, the entire area seemed to split apart as if he had physically separated the space itself!

**Boom!!**

**Rumble!!!**

Akainu and Kizaru's attacks crashed into the divided space, shattering the barrier instantly!

Blazing magma surged forward once again, about to rain down on the three who had just landed!

"Fire Fist!"

**Boom!!!**

At the last second, a massive fire punch struck the magma head-on, causing both attacks to collide in a violent explosion!

The overwhelming energy canceled out completely!

"Ace!"

"Ace!!"

"He's free! Ace is finally free!" The rescuers cheered the moment they saw the Fire Fist. They knew Ace had been saved!

"Sabo!"

"Rayleigh!"

"Thank you!" Ace suddenly voiced his gratitude.

Sabo was overjoyed. It was a good thing he had prepared the key to the Seastone cuffs in advance—it actually came in handy!

"This isn't the time to catch up! We need to get out of here first!" Rayleigh shouted urgently.

"Pops!"

"How are you holding up?!" Marco finally noticed that Whitebeard's wounds were getting worse!

"I'm fine..."

"You're not getting away!"

Buddha Palm!!

Before Whitebeard could finish speaking, Sengoku launched another attack. This time, he held nothing back as a giant golden palm came crashing down on the trio!

Dark King!

Rayleigh had no time to hesitate. He unleashed a devastating slash straight toward the enormous Buddha palm!

Boom!!!

*Creak—*

A portal opened at the spot where the three Admirals had been. Ryuen and his group of four stepped out.

But as soon as they emerged, a powerful shockwave blasted toward them, almost knocking them off their feet.

"Holy crap!"

"What the hell is going on? How did things get this crazy so fast?" Ryuen was stunned as he took in the battlefield of Marineford, which was now in complete chaos.

"Ace has been rescued, but old man Sengoku has stepped in. Whitebeard is seriously injured. Whether they can escape from Marine Headquarters is still uncertain," Nojiko explained to the others.

"This is getting intense..." Ryuen's expression turned serious.

Even Boa Hancock was surprised. She hadn't been gone for long, yet the battlefield had already turned into a bloodbath.

Now that Ace had been rescued, it was time for the rescue team to retreat!

*Quake Punch!*

Whitebeard suddenly activated his ability, and in an instant, all of Marineford began to shake violently.

Both the retreating pirates and the pursuing marines had to stop and steady themselves.

*Crack... crack...*

*Boom!!*

With his terrifying power, Whitebeard created a deep chasm between both sides, an abyss so vast that its bottom couldn't even be seen!

"You brats!"

"This is my final order as your captain! Our mission here is complete—there is no reason to stay any longer!" Whitebeard shouted, panting heavily.

"Pops!"

"Pops! Come with us!"

The Whitebeard Pirates yelled anxiously, even the other rescuers had stopped moving.

"My children!"

"This is where I say goodbye to you. All of you—make sure you survive! Go back to the New World safely!"

Whitebeard roared, his attacks never stopping. With a single swing, he sent another wave of marines flying.

"No!!"

"Pops! We're leaving together!"

"Pops!!"

Hearing Whitebeard's final order, all his crew members burst into tears. Some division commanders even tried to run back toward him.

"Are you seriously going to disobey his final command?! Everyone, get moving!!"

"I'm a relic of the old era. There's no ship in this new age that can carry me!" Whitebeard turned and shouted at all the pirates.

"This is bad! The place is collapsing! Nami, open the portal!" Ryuen suddenly called out.

"Huh?"

"Oh... Got it." Nami didn't question him and immediately opened a portal.

The Dream Pirates didn't know what was happening, but they all stepped inside, including Boa Hancock.

————

"Sengoku, your so-called World Government... has always been afraid. Because one day, an unprecedented war will break out, a war that will drag the entire world into chaos.

I don't really care much about it myself... but when someone finally discovers that great treasure, the entire world will be turned upside down!"

"Someone will find it. That day will come sooner or later."

As Whitebeard spoke, already on the verge of death, a chilling smile appeared on his face.

Hearing these words, Sengoku was furious, clenching his teeth. What Whitebeard said left him completely speechless!

"Heh heh heh..."

Whitebeard smirked.

"Damn you, Whitebeard! Shut up!!"

Sengoku heard Whitebeard's wild laughter, and a bad feeling instantly surged in his heart.

"ONE PIECE... is real!"

With those words, the legendary pirate of the seas threw an elbow strike. The power of the Quake-Quake Fruit erupted, shaking Marine Headquarters to its core.

"Crack... crack... crack..."

"Boom!!!"

Within seconds, the entire Marine Headquarters building collapsed!

After that attack...

The legendary pirate Whitebeard fell at Marineford.

But his final words left the whole world in silence for several seconds.

Then, the silence shattered—people burst into shouts of excitement and disbelief. The treasure Roger left behind, the one believed to be valuable enough to buy the entire world, was real!

And now, Whitebeard had confirmed it once again!

After twenty-two years, the world had plunged into madness once more, all for the sake of that mysterious treasure!

"Curse you, Whitebeard!"

"Kill them all! Don't let them escape Marineford!" Akainu roared.

"Kill them!"

"Don't let them get away!!!"

The Marines, stunned for a few seconds, finally snapped back to reality at Akainu's command. They rushed forward, leaping over the massive cracks in the ground, chasing after the escaping pirates.
