Chapter 192 - 192. Whitebeard And Leo (1/2)

Boom!

The shockwave and the sword ray collided, the air shook and the earth trembled. Dust and rubble were thrown in every direction.

”It's vice admiral Leo!”

”He finally made a move!”

Leo's prestige among the marines were quite high. After all he did defeat Shiki and repel Big Mom alongside Aokiji.

”Gurarara, brat, you finally made up your mind!”

Leo stared at Whitebeard and said gloomily, ”I can't let you take anymore lives.”

”Gurarara, then try to stop me!”

Whitebeard raised his bisento. It turned to a shade of blue and black with a metallic gleam to it.

Leo also readied his weapon. The blazing red colour on his sword turned pitch black, only the edge had a wave of deep red to it.

Whitebeard placed one of his foot forward and cleaved down.

Compared to Whitebeard's massive body Leo looked tiny. However an overbearing momentum was gathered on his sword.

Merciful Rain!!

Crack!!

The bisento and sword clashed.

Space started to twist from the sheer power their weapons contained.

The ground they were standing on cracked and caved in.

Whitebeard stood tall as a mountain. However, Leo took a step back.

In their confrontation Leo fell short.

”Leo...

Sengoku narrowed his eyes as he looked at Leo. He didn't know what Leo was planning but there seems to be a huge change in the presence he gave off.

Whitebeard was finally set free. He didn't need to care about his sons anymore, they were already far away and retreating.

”Gurarara, I can let lose after all these years!”

With bisento in one hand Whitebeard laughed loudly. The momentum around him was rising.

Shockwaves started to pulse out from his body.

If this goes on the island will be destroyed!

Leo's face turned solemn.

Suddenly a bright light flashed beside Whitebeard.

”Yasakani no Magatama!”

Kisaru had his arms crossed. Countless balls of light shot out from his body and fell on Whitebeard.

However the shockwaves coming from Whitebeard's body forcefully dispersed a vast majority of it.

”Monkey brat!”

Whitebeard raised his head and stared at Kisaru before punching out. This time he didn't hold back, his fist was covered in busoshoku haki and a white glow surfaced on it.

”Uh-oh.”

The air cracked and shattered in Kisaru's direction.

Boom!

The blast wave struck Kisaru and threw him away.

A hole was punched through the clouds!

”Is this his true power?!”

”So this is the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard!”

While Whitebeard was occupied by Leo and the admirals Ace and Luffy were being relentlessly pursued by Akainu.

Leo had an eye the entire battlefield. Several thoughts flashed in his mind as he saw everything.

However his sword wasn't the least bit weak as he fought Whitebeard.

”Come, Navy!!”

Whitebeard was acting with abandon. He didn't even defend himself against Leo's and Kisaru's attack. His only goal was to cover the retreat of his crew and for that he was prepared to thrown away his life.

Akainu who was chasing Ace glanced at Whitebeard from the corner of his eyes. A peculiar glow flashed through his eyes.

”Whitebeard is nothing more than a loser from the old era.”

His words were light but it reached Ace and the other commanders. Their steps halted.

All of them turned around and looked at Akainu with bloodshot eyes.

Ace clenched his fist, ”Take that back.”

Akainu adjusted his cap and said, ”Why don't you make me?”

Ace was still a hot headed youth. His body was engulfed in flames as he threw a gigantic fist at Akainu.

Fire Fist!!!

Akainu smirked.

His right arm turned into scalding magma. A huge fist made of magma clashed against Ace's fire.

Bang!
