Chapter's Events:
—————————
"Honestly… If we all join the battle, who is going to protect this place?"
As a massive chunk of ice fell towards them, Admiral Akainu finally stopped.
His right arm started dripping with scorching volcanic magma, resembling a volcano on the verge of eruption.
"Akainu-san!!!"
Marines shouted in astonishment at the sight of this admiral entering battlefield.
"Daifunka!!!"
A massive fist of magma shot towards the huge chunk of ice, leaving a trail of volcanic magma behind it.
In an instant, the ice began to evaporate, forming a large fog that quickly engulfed it until nothing remained of the ice but the mist.
"That massive piece of ice… Gone without a trace…"
"It evaporated…!!"
What remained of the solidified volcanic magma began to rain down on the pirates below.
"Aaagh!! Volcanic rocks!!!"
"Aahhhh…!!"
"Aghh!! We can't stop them all!!!"
"One of the ships is down!!"
…
This scene was reflected on the screens in the Sabaody Archipelago, where volcanic rocks were falling on the pirates and destroying everything in the horizon, leaving the viewers in shock.
"It's like witnessing the end of the world…!"
…
Back on the battlefield, Whitebeard caught a falling volcanic rock using his weapon.
"These flames seem a little excessive…"
He smiled and blew on it, extinguishing it.
"Go put your skills to work on a birthday cake, Magma-boy."
Whitebeard said mockingly, referring to Akainu.
"Fufufu… Do you not approve of gaudy funerals, Whitebeard?" Akainu replied.

At the Marine headquarters, the eyes of the readers who reached this scene in the manga widened.
The lower-ranked soldiers tried to suppress their laughter so as not to offend the violent Admiral.
But in the Fleet Admiral's office, where Marine leaders gathered, the atmosphere was different.
Considering the age and experience gap between him and Whitebeard, Sakazuki tried at this moment to maintain composure and not feel too embarrassed.
But the strange looks from the Fleet Admiral and others made his sharp mood explode.
"Bft! Hahaha! Whitebeard is quite mocking."
"I didn't expect him to have such a mood at the end of his life."
"Does he seriously think Sakazuki's magma can only light birthday cake candles? Hahaha! Don't take me too lightly, Sakazuki, but this scene is truly funny." laughed Borsalino.
"Arara- It seems Whitebeard doesn't appreciate you much, Sakazuki." added Kuzan.
"Hmph… Well, he won't be in the mood for jokes after a few chapters."
Sakazuki was certain of that as he turned the pages; this was just the first move of his counterpart, causing all this damage...
When he becomes serious, things will become more thrilling.
"He will eliminate all the pirates… I believe in him…" Sakazuki muttered these words to himself while following the images and scenes in that particular chapter.
...
"What's this…?"
Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened as they saw a somewhat familiar giant figure.
"Little Oars Junior? Who's that?"
"Seriously… is this ancient giant still around!? Is he under Whitebeard's supervision!?"
...
On Sphinx Island, for a moment, people next to the art store thought the sun had vanished for an inexplicable reason.
But its light was merely blocked by an extremely giant shape passing by, accompanied by dozens of humans.
As Little Oars Junior approached the boundary of the art store, his massive body magically shrunk to normal human size.
This was one of the legendary features of the miraculous art store, where even the blind could regain their sight, and giants could shrink to human size smoothly, allowing intelligent small creatures to enjoy the same treatment.
"Every time I see this sight, I feel speechless like the first time I saw it…"
"That's right, man, same here…"
"Weird, this store is miraculous, I can't wrap my head around this technology…"
"Go on, follow Captain Oars, enough of the chit-chat…"
"Most of the affiliated crews have already arrived; we are very late. Whitebeard contacted us for a meeting here."
Oars Jr's crew, under Whitebeard, hurried into the art store amidst the stunned residents of Sphinx, who finally understood the reason for the earlier disappearance of the sun, caused by the giant mountain-like beast that had blocked it before.
...
"Gurararara…!!! Indeed, these little flames can only light birthday cake candles…"
"Does he think his magma is hot enough to make me sweat?"
Whitebeard's laughter coincided with the mocking scene in the manga, creating a strange picture.
The young Whitebeard was currently enjoying the Summit War.
"Why does he seem so arrogant in front of my father? Akainu is too haughty, just an admiral who doesn't know what's good for him."
Jozu felt a bit frustrated seeing Akainu destroy his impressive display of strength and vaporize the huge ice chunk, which undoubtedly took his counterpart a lot of effort to throw at Marineford.
"He's really arrogant; he gives me a feeling of oppression just by looking at him through the manga… Is this Admiral Akainu?"
"A red dog…? Seems like the name fits..."
"The dog description suits a great force working for the World Government."
"Oh, this is Little Oars Junior! He appeared in the manga?"
"Does he consider Ace his brother? Ace must have been very kind to him to earn this high regard from Little Oars."
Whitebeard smiled at seeing this scene, quickly forgetting about the Marine dog named Akainu.
"Oyaji… are you talking about me?"
At that moment, Little Oars Junior and those with him arrived where the Whitebeard group was gathered.
"Oh, you've finally arrived, Oars? Come, take a seat; you've arrived just in time to witness an entertaining show."
"People will know that the descendant of Kunihiki Oars is still present in this world," Whitebeard said.
