Chereads / One Piece Thundergod Marine / Chapter 653 - Chapter 538 Unknown Enemy!

Chapter 653 - Chapter 538 Unknown Enemy!

Rowen clearly knew that now was the best time to surpass Whitebeard!

Once Whitebeard understood his moves, it was uncertain whether his electric paralysis would have the same effect. Given Whitebeard's decades of cunning nature on the seas, the outcome wouldn't be pleasant.

As for Ace...

Plans serve their purpose!

If the goal can be achieved directly, then plans can be discarded.

"Despicable guys!"

Marco's face looked grim as he looked at this. The blue flames not only healed his own wounds but could also heal the wounds of others, which was the basis of his confidence as the commander of the medical division.

Through the blue flames, he knew the extent of Whitebeard's injuries.

Even without the electric paralysis affecting his perception, it would be difficult for him to withstand so many attacks.

So he had to block them!

Puff!

The searing magma bit off a chunk of Marco's abdomen, emitting a pungent burnt smell. But soon, blue flames ignited on the wound, and his missing flesh began to regenerate bit by bit in the firelight.

Clang!!!

With his legs wrapped in haki, Marco spun around in the air and swooped down, hitting Kizaru's golden laser.

Boom... Rumble!

A ring of smoke exploded, and amidst the fierce flames, a figure rushed out.

At that moment, half of Marco's body was charred black from the explosion, and his teeth were exposed like a grimacing demon. The only reason he could rush out with such injuries was to block another attack.

Fortunately, the target of the three was Whitebeard. No matter where they started from, their destination was the same.

Therefore, it might be difficult to stop them from a distance, but once the distance closed, Marco could protect Whitebeard from all sides with his speed.

Using his own body as a shield...

**Super Electromagnetic Cannon!

In order to kill Marco quickly, Rowen refrained from firing a cannonball and instead clenched his fist, unleashing a mighty blow like thunder.

Puff... Splash!

Blood, bone, flesh, and fragments of internal organs sprayed from Marco's back like a crimson fountain. 

The hastily covered Haki couldn't block such a terrifying attack, and the large fist pierced through his abdomen and emerged from his back.

**Ama No Murakumo!

**Dai Funka - Great Eruption!

How could the other two miss such a golden opportunity?

A sword and a fist struck Marco at the same time and the violent explosion and tremors swept the area and blew them both away.

The difference was that Rowen easily steadied himself and prepared for the next wave of attacks.

Marco, on the other hand, flew ten meters away, lying on the ground, vomiting blood, unable to get up.

**Gungnir!

**Meteor Shower!

Pitter-Patter...

High in the sky, tiny specks of white light quickly appeared, like stars decorating the dark night sky, looking extraordinarily beautiful.

"Fall!"

Rowen snapped his fingers, and a thunderous roar filled the air, giving the illusion of a rainstorm.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless, densely packed meteor spears rained down, covering an area within a kilometer's radius.

When raindrops hit the ground, they create waves.

But when thunderbolts strike, their power rivals that of grenade launchers!

Bang! Boom! Boom!

The fast-moving lightning roared and sang, wantonly unleashing its crushing violence and destruction.

The rocks and earth where Whitebeard stood were instantly pulverized by the countless meteor strikes. Then, a brilliant white light erupted from the center, forming a blue transparent arc disk that spread outward madly.

The electromagnetic surge forced Kizaru and Akainu to retreat. Kizaru even remarked meaningfully.

"What a terrifying attack! The density and power surpass even my Yata no Kagami."

"Power comes at the cost of endurance, Admiral Kizaru. You overestimate me."

Rowen shook his head. The Thunderstorm looked impressive, but in terms of sheer destructive power, it couldn't compete with Kizaru's Yata no Kagami under normal circumstances.

The primary killing mechanism of Meteor Spears was penetration and sharpness, while Yata no Kagami relied entirely on explosive power.

Therefore, this move was often used against undying opponents.

Not to mention, even without the ability to heal himself, as long as the Meteor Spears didn't pierce his vital points, it wouldn't be a big deal.

With one hand, he summoned the Thunder Dragon Crescent Halberd that had been blown away by the explosion. He skillfully spun it in his hand before stepping forward, electricity surging.

**Heaven-Resisting Thunder Cry-Third Style!**

**Cloud Dragon Kill!**

At that moment...

Bang!

A bullet with a tricky angle, like a snake spitting venom, shot towards him from a distance.

Rowen sensed a faint threat from it, indicating that it was a sea stone bullet. No matter how strong a sniper is at sea, he cannot extend Busoshoku Haki (Armament Haki) to a thousand meters.

Taking a bullet and continuing the attack might not be fatal, but the effect of the Seastone could not be ignored. Rowen immediately turned around and swung the Thunder Halberd backward.

Ding... Shh!!

In slow motion, the crescent-shaped blade of the Thunder Dragon Crescent Halberd hit the tip of the bullet with precision.

The bullet's indestructible Seastone hardness prevented it from being cut, but it lost its original trajectory. It skimmed the crescent blade and the weapon's locking window, leaving a clearly visible white scratch on the Thunder Halberd, and sparks flew.

"Are there more enemies?"

Startled by this sudden turn of events, Akainu and Kizaru immediately halted their attack on Whitebeard and became alert to their surroundings.

However, the surface of the sea remained calm, without the slightest ripple.

"Rowen, where are the enemies?"

The two trusted Rowen's Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki). Since they couldn't find the enemies themselves, only he might be able to locate them at this moment.

"Under the sea, probably in a submarine..."

Rowen fully activated the Thunder God Seal, using his enhanced control over the Goro Goro no Mi (Thunder Thunder Fruit) after awakening to expand his Heart Network. 

Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly opened his eyes in disbelief and said, "Something's wrong, there are too many enemies!"

"What?!"

Splash!

Just as he finished speaking, a huge black object broke through the water and surfaced.

It was a submarine in the shape of a sea turtle. Rowen could sense that the sniper who had just shot him was inside it.

But the enemies he mentioned weren't just them; there were others...

"Admiral, a large number of pirate groups are gathering on the periphery, the number..."

Akainu's Den Den Mushi rang out, and the messenger shouted in panic, "The number is unknown, there are too many!!!"

"Ah, we see them."

Akainu's face darkened. He didn't need the messenger to tell him, his eyes had already given him the answer.

After all...

There were too many!

Even though the distance was still significant, not quite meeting the standard of "reaching the battlefield", the sheer number of them supported an exaggerated scale. 

Under the thin moonlight, a black wave appeared where the sea met the sky, like a sinister ghost emerging from the darkness, chilling to the bone.

And...

Without exception, this black wave was composed entirely of pirate ships!

Hundreds or thousands?

Akainu couldn't tell.

But he was certain that these people were not here with good intentions!
