"What was that voice just now?" Whitebeard looked around warily, his unease growing as inexplicable events continued to unfold in his world. If not for the pain from his injuries, he might have thought this was all a strange dream.
"Father, let me heal you first!" Marco flew over urgently, using the flames of regeneration to tend to Whitebeard's wounds. He knew how serious Whitebeard's health was, and after such a fierce battle, they were all worried about how much longer he could endure.
The heavy losses among their crew members only added to the somber atmosphere.
Whitebeard was about to raise his hand to deliver a few words to lift their spirits when he noticed an unfamiliar object in his hand—a small charm with a drawing of a dog on it.
"What is this?" he muttered, bewildered.
Just then, the Dog Charm began to emit a bright light, enveloping Whitebeard entirely.
"Father!" His crew rushed to his side, their hearts racing with worry. However, as the light faded, they noticed a remarkable change in Whitebeard.
"Wait… Father's illness… it's gone?" Marco examined Whitebeard in astonishment. Just a moment ago, his body had been riddled with illness, yet now he seemed as healthy as any man.
"How is that possible? Wasn't he severely ill?" another crewmate asked, equally baffled.
Whitebeard glanced down at the Dog Charm, realizing it must have caused this miraculous change.
At that moment, the voice returned: "The Dog Charm grants eternal youth and immortality to its holder, allowing them to return to their prime, free of illness and injury."
"Who are you! Show yourself!" Whitebeard roared, his words carrying newfound power, strong enough to cause the sea around him to tremble. Could this charm truly restore his youth and make him immortal?
"Father!" Ace's voice broke through the tense atmosphere as he approached, his crewmates sighing with relief upon seeing him safe. His recent bounty increase had worried them all, and they were eager to find out what he had done to warrant it. But something else caught their attention—Ace's flames were now a striking shade of purple.
...
Meanwhile, at Navy Headquarters…
Garp and Sengoku stared in horror as they learned of Whitebeard's newfound power. If he truly could regain his prime, the consequences were unthinkable. Young Whitebeard had been an unstoppable force—more than capable of tearing the world apart if he desired. Though he'd never shown such ambition, his illness had kept him in check for years. Now, he was a force to be reckoned with once again.
"Damn it! We have to find a way to eliminate Whitebeard and take that Dog Charm!" Sengoku growled, clenching his fists.
"We can't be hasty, Sengoku," Garp replied, unusually calm. "Provoking him might lead to the entire world's destruction." Despite the power of his Ox Charm, Garp knew he had to tread carefully around Whitebeard.
Back in the discussion panel…
Doctor Strange remarked, "Eternal youth and immortality? What a fascinating charm!"
Wong added, "I've read about similar magical items, but they usually come with a heavy price. One that's this straightforward is unheard of!"
Naruto commented, "Eternal youth, huh? Kinda like Granny Tsunade's jutsu."
Tsunade, sitting in the Hokage office, muttered to herself, "It's not the same. My jutsu can't grant me immortality…" Like many, she felt the allure of eternal youth but knew that her chakra-intensive technique could only go so far.
...
In the One Piece world, both Nami and Robin were visibly intrigued by the idea of eternal youth, though it was a dangerous notion to pursue. Nami considered, Maybe we could sneak it from him...
Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne, having heard about Whitebeard, was concerned. "A pirate with the power to defeat monsters that take down Ultramen… That's alarming."
Elsewhere in the Navy…
Aokiji replied, "Indeed, Whitebeard is the strongest pirate in our world, capable of triggering earthquakes and tsunamis. If he wanted, he could bring the world to ruin."
Nick Fury was stunned, "An entire world-shaking power…"
Jiraiya couldn't hide his shock. "Whole continents would be devastated… No civilization could withstand a global catastrophe like that."
As Bruce Wayne absorbed this information, he imagined Gotham's criminals with such power. "If someone like Whitebeard roamed my city, it'd be constant chaos, with countries held hostage for ransom…"
