At this point, Whitebeard's blonde hair was stained with blood, the greater part being Roy's and the lesser part his own.
A large white robe draped over his back had become torn and tattered, and new wounds could be seen on his body from time to time.
It had been more than remembered since the last time he had been wounded this much.
"Pops, fight me and don't you dare fret!"
A golden light rose up behind Whitebeard and a huge sword descended from the sky, slashing straight down towards Whitebeard, who dodged sideways.
A crash!
Blood shot out, and a new wound was added to Whitebeard's thigh.
"En ..."
A muffled grunt escaped Whitebeard's throat, and just as he was about to fall to the ground, he steadied himself with the hilt of his naginata.
"I'm ... Whitebeard!"
With a swing of his naginata, and a powerful shockwave that shattered the air, Whitebeard's naginata struck through, and Roy's body once again fell apart, completely shattering like glass in Whitebeard's eyes!
But there was no look of pain on Roy's face, and after coughing up a mouthful of blood with his guts, he recovered again.
"Resurrected again?" Whitebeard said inwardly, the move had shattered his opponent's entire body, but he still recovered quickly.
Even Whitebeard himself couldn't remember how long he had been fighting here, Roy had resurrected in front of him at least a thousand times, leading Whitebeard to stop being surprised and instead think about how to kill this guy again.
"Uh huh!"
Suddenly, Whitebeard increased the output of power in his hands, and his fist opened up, turning into a palm and grabbing Roy's body.
With the difference in their stature, Whitebeard grabbed Roy like an adult grabbing a baby.
Whitebeard threw Roy high into the air and then slammed him into the ground with a fierce slam, his Shock Shock Fruit ability activated, seemingly intending to make Roy sink into the sea completely.
Boom!
The land beneath the two men was less than a fifth of what the island had been at the beginning, the rest of the land was destroyed mainly due to Whitebeard's ability, as if a tragic block of collapsed icebergs had started to move along the currents.
Whitebeard's move was successful, and he pressed Roy's head heavily into the mud, his palm once again exploding with a shockwave unique to the Shockwave Fruit, sending a deep gully into the ground and burying Roy.
Seconds later, the force that erupted from the island caused the tsunami to rise again, and the upper half of Roy's body had been completely smashed into the gully, and Whitebeard could barely see Roy's body stuck in the crevice, and with one more punch, the ground completely caved in beneath his feet.
"There, that hurts slightly, doesn't it, angel boy!" Whitebeard tilted his head back and roared low as he turned around to leave, as much as he wanted to give Roy another blow, the island was already on the verge of collapse and with one more punch, the whole island was afraid that it would simply cave in.
As an Ability, he didn't want to do that, and Whitebeard was not in a position to die with his opponent.
But the entire island's core had been pretty much destroyed, and it was only a matter of time before it crashed into the sea.
"Ha, Pops, I haven't lost yet!" Roy braced his hands on the ground and propped himself up to climb out of the chasm.
And so the two weapons collided once more, trading blows.
Clang!
Both sides took a step back at the same time as wild thunder flashed from the dark clouds and a sudden downpour of rain seemed to announce the continuation of the battle.
But just then, both turned their heads at the same time to look towards the flanking shore, only to see that in the distance, countless pirate ships were slowly sailing like this direction.
This included Roy's too-iron ship.
In fact, Roy had already learned the news through the chat system.
Gianna had awakened her power and beaten up Whitebeard's group of captains, and just then, Law Persuasion-Jay arrived and succeeded in persuading them to fight, so a group of people came over in their ships.
But Whitebeard was unaware of this.
The three ships driving at the front of the line were naturally the Whitebeard Moby Dick, Roy's Sea King Power, and Roger's Jackson.
But what really attracted Whitebeard was a ship with a goddess statue on its bow to the left of the Moby Dick, and the man standing on the bow ... his lifelong friend and nemesis, Gordo Roger.
Several miles from the shore, Roger, standing on the Jackson, leaped, and with a stump, had appeared in a position between the two men, Whitebeard and Roger.
"Hey, Roger ..."
Whitebeard twitched his lips, "Haven't seen you in a year, ran off with my men, what are you doing here today?"
"I'm here to stop, this fight of yours!" Roger said in one word.
"Both of you, please do ... give me a break!"
As Roger stood between the two men and said these words, for some reason Roy felt a very serious sense of vestigiality.
Roy almost didn't laugh out loud, so Shanks had gotten Roger's real face fruit.
After the scene was silent for a while, when they saw the way Whitebeard was covered in wounds, the crowd of Whitebeard Pirates who originally wanted to take revenge for Druzy also shut their mouths and stopped talking.
Although Druzy was the captain, but in the past battles, the White Beard Pirates do not know how many people have died, it does not matter who died, but the old man is their soul, if the old man has a shortage of life, they can not accept.
The strength of the Holy Light Pirates is indeed too terrifying.
Roy, who is the captain of the ship, is not a good fighter, just look at him and Pops after so many days.
Then there's that Plank, who can take on five captains at the same time, a solid quasi-great admiral level.
And finally there's that Gianna... an admiral is no better than that!
If they got serious, they'd probably be defeated!
It wasn't worth sacrificing too many people to avenge one captain, and even less if Pops got hurt again over it.
After all, in the past, many people on the ship, apart from a very few, didn't like Druzy's arrogant personality, and a large part of the reason they shouted for revenge on him before was because of face-saving issues.
What's more, now that the Oceanic Calamity and the Frost Witch had agreed to a truce, it was assumed that their boss Roy would not continue to fight.
Marco couldn't be bothered with revenge or anything right now and said to those nurses in the medical squad, "Hey, you guys, go get Pops back."
The Moby Dick quickly lowered the ship's ladder and many of the ship's doctors ran to Whitebeard's side, ready to check him out.
As one nurse had just placed a large wound patch specially ordered for Whitebeard's huge body to stop the bleeding, Whitebeard suddenly waved his hand to stop it, "What is this small wound, to gain the sympathy of the enemy with something like this?"
"Captain, your wound is very deep, don't move!" A nurse stood by Whitebeard's side, looking at a wound on his leg that touched his eyes and said.
"Bastard!"
Whitebeard thrust his naginata into the ground with a jarring thud, "I'm Whitebeard!"
Roy laughed lightly and shook his head, although he only managed to leave a decent wound on Whitebeard's thigh, leaving a message, "Better take the doctor's advice, old bastard, you'll die sooner if you're so desperate to save face! How about I treat you!"
With that, Roy switched to his "Silver Hand" hammer and poured a holy light on Whitebeard's body, giving him a "quick heal"!
