"If anyone wants to fight I will accompany you to the end."
Everyone looked towards the voice and they saw Shanks and his crew standing there.
Luffy saw Shanks and formed a huge smile on his face. He started waving towards Shanks.
"Shanks, it's me Luffy. Do you remember me?"
Shanks looked at Luffy and laughed. "Of course I remember you."
Then he turned a little serious and withdrew his sword. "End this war now and stop this meaningless bloodbath. You can take this as my warning."
Garp also looked at Shanks. "As much as I hate to do this I have to agree with Shanks on this one. This war needs to end now."
Kong looked at the elders because he didn't know what to do in this situation. The 4 elders looked at each other. They didn't know what to do.
Garp looked at the elders. "Why are you hesitant to make this simple decision or are you delusional and think you can still win if you fight all of us. Let me make it clear to you, if the marines decide to fight right now then they will be destroyed completely.
"The same thing goes for the pirates. I will side with Red-Haired on this one and will fight whoever wants to continue this war."
Kong and the admirals were still a little hesitant but they knew what Garp said was true. It would be foolish for anyone to start a fight. Especially when Garp said he would team up with Shanks to takedown anyone who starts the war again.
Ryu glared at Garp and Rabin for a couple of seconds then he turned around. "Let's go back, we have done enough for now."
The rest of the elders also started to walk away. Kong and the three admirals started to gather a few injured vice-admirals and other members who were still alive. Kuma also helped them to gather the survivors. Out of 100000 Marines that were during the start of the war only a little more than 100 survived.
Whitebeard pirate also took a major hit. The only remaining members out of Whitebeard pirates were. Whitebeard, Marco, Ace, Jozu, and Vista.
After the Marines left Whitebeard looked around the battlefield and sighed. He then looked at his Ace and others. "We should leave too."
Ace also looked around and saw burnt up corpses of many of his crewmates. His eyes instantly filled with tears. He fell onto his knees and started crying.
"I am sorry pops. It's all because of me, only if... only I hadn't been impulsive and went after Teach."
Whitebeard came near Ace. He bent down and pulled Ace into a hug.
"My idiot son, no need to blame yourself for what happened. It's not your fault. I just failed as a father. I couldn't protect my own sons."
Marco, Jozu, and Vista all came around Whitebeard and Ace.
"It's not your fault either pops. Its no one's fault."
Whitebeard looked at Marco and others. "Let's go, for now, don't make a scene in front of everyone."
Ace wiped his tears and nodded his head. Whitebeard started to walk away.
Ace looked at Sabo and then he looked at Dragon who was standing near Sabo's body. "Take care of him."
"You don't need to teach me how to take care of my men."
Ace didn't say anything he looked towards Luffy.
"Hey Luffy, come with us for now. You can meet up with your crew later."
Luffy nodded his head and looked towards Dragon. "So you are my dad, huh, you don't really look like me but anyways that's beside the point. Make sure to protect Sabo or I will beat you up even if you are my dad."
Garp laughed and patted Dragon's back. "He is an airhead just like you."
Dragon kicked Luffy and sent him flying next to Whitebeard. "You are 1000 years too early to beat me up."
Whitebeard picked up Luffy and continued walking away. Ace also ran behind Whitebeard and in a minute all of the Whitebeard Pirates left the battlefield.
Dragon looked at Garp and Rabin. "I think its time for me to take my leave."
Rabin nodded his head. "Contact me if you need anything."
Garp looked at Dragon. "Stay safe."
Dragon nodded his head. "I will. Before I leave I just want to ask you one thing, dad."
"What is it?"
"Do you want to join the revolutionary army? Before you reject me just hear my offer. You don't need to fight on the frontlines nor do you need to help me make important decisions. I just want you to be the instructor of the revolutionary and train a few rookies."
Garp stayed silent for a while.
Rabin looked at Garp. "I think you should join him, grandpa. You have already left the Marines so you have nowhere to go right now why not help out your son."
"Well, I guess I will give it a try."
Dragon smiled and said. "Come on let's go, Dad."
Dragon carried the three injured members of the revolutionary using his wind and started walking away from the battlefield. Garp started to follow behind him.
Everyone slowly started to leave one after the other. Now only the Thunder Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates were left on the battlefield.
Rabin looked at Shanks. "Shanks are you willing to back your words up and accompany anyone to the end if they want to fight."
Shanks moved his sword a little. "You are free to try."
Rabin released his conquers haki and rushed towards Shanks.
"Then don't mind if I do."
