Carl tapped his toes on the ground and stood next to Zephyr. Garp immediately approached and poked Carl's jade-like skin with his hand, asking,
"Are you really Carl?"
Carl ignored him, turning to look at Zephyr and said,
"Teacher Zephyr, we have the situation on the warship under control, don't worry."
What else could Zephyr say? He could only nod stiffly to show that he understood, but he couldn't help but ask,
"Carl, what's wrong with you looking like this?"
Carl responded calmly,
"It's the power of the fur tribe. Someone experimented on me."
Just as he was talking, Whitebeard suddenly rose, and a shock wave emerged from the tip of his sword, Murakumogiri. His huge body burst out at an amazing speed and appeared in front of Carl in an instant.
"Kid! Take your life!"
Murakumogiri had already penetrated Carl's body from top to bottom. The shock wave spread, and dense green cracks appeared in the air around Carl's body. The entire Moby Dick began to tremble violently.
However, Carl's figure only twisted like a projection and then returned to normal. It seemed that nothing had happened.
Whitebeard frowned. He could feel that the sword he had just struck didn't hit anything at all. He thought to himself,
"Is it some special Devil Fruit?"
The moment he struck the air, Garp and Zephyr shot at the same time, and their two black iron fists hit Whitebeard's waist.
Whitebeard snorted, and a transparent shock wave appeared in his hand again. He was about to take action but suddenly saw the shock wave flicker on his hand and finally disappear.
He suddenly looked down and saw Carl placing a darkened hand on his abdomen. Before he could figure out the situation, Garp and Zephyr's attacks had already landed on him.
Two fist-shaped marks, one large and one small, were left on Whitebeard's waist on both sides.
He roared angrily, and Conqueror's Haki completely exploded.
With rich combat experience, he first broke away from Carl, then grabbed Zephyr and Garp by their collars, and smashed them together.
The two Admirals just clashed in front of Carl. This move was not very harmful to them, but it was extremely insulting.
Fortunately, Carl still had an emotionless face at this time, as if he didn't see it.
Zephyr's strength was still weaker than Garp's. When he was still a little dazed, Garp had already rushed towards Whitebeard again, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with Whitebeard despite the shock wave.
Carl would touch Whitebeard from time to time so that he could not use the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit normally.
Gradually, Whitebeard figured out Carl's ability: Carl had a physical body when he touched him, and that was when Carl was most vulnerable, of course, for Whitebeard.
Finally, he seized an opportunity and punched Carl.
You must know that the current Whitebeard was not an ordinary fighter. In his prime, his punch was not so easy to bear.
Carl groaned and immediately entered the Kamui state, retreating to the edge of the deck to rest while Garp and Zephyr continued to fight.
A ball of electric light emitted from Carl's abdomen, and under the influence of the electricity, the pain in his abdomen gradually subsided.
An anxious voice came from the air,
"Young... Cousin!"
Lucia fell from the sky. She folded the wings behind her, rushed to Carl in a hurry, and asked anxiously,
"Cousin, are you injured?!"
Carl shook his head and said softly,
"I'm fine, Lucia. Let's go back first. Sure enough, fighting at this level is still a bit much for me now."
In fact, Carl could still fight if he wanted to. After the transformation, he was at the level of the deputy emperor. With Zephyr and Garp, it was not impossible to take down Whitebeard, but it would be costly. He didn't feel it was necessary to fight hard.
Lucia thought Carl was shocked by Whitebeard's strength. She held Carl's hand and said softly,
"No, Cousin, you have already done a good job. How old are you? As long as I give you a little more time, I believe you can surpass that Whitebeard!"
Carl smiled slightly, reached out, caressed Lucia's pretty face, and said,
"Of course, I am your young master."
Lucia nodded vigorously, a bright smile on her face.
The two stood up from the ground, glanced at the three powerful individuals fighting together over there, then turned around and jumped into the sky, returning to the original warship.
Seeing Carl coming back, all the members of the Whitebeard Pirates suddenly looked shocked. Jozu was slapped by Kuma and rolled several times on the ground due to his lack of concentration before he stopped.
This also allowed him to distance himself from Kuma. After standing up, he made a prompt decision and shouted,
"Everyone retreat! Go and support Dad!"
It was said to be support, but everyone knew that Jozu was just looking for a nicer excuse to escape.
The other members also knew that the situation was over. After Jozu shouted, they all abandoned their opponents. Those with stronger physical skills would jump, while those with weaker physical skills could only jump into the sea and swim.
During this process, many pirates were killed on the spot by Carl and others, with no intention of capturing a few alive.
After the pirates on the warship were completely cleared, Akainu and others came to Carl one after another, looking at him with more or less respect in their eyes.
The most outstanding performance in this battle was Carl's. Without him, one Oden alone would be enough for them to struggle, not to mention Nekomamushi and Inuarashi, who transformed under the full moon, as well as those few very capable trainee crew members.
Anyway, Akainu was truly convinced by Carl this time, especially when he saw Carl chasing Oden towards the Moby Dick where Whitebeard was. He was so excited that he wished he could follow him.
However, he was severely injured in the abdomen, and with Borsalino pulling him, he finally had no choice but to stay on the warship.
Gion looked at Carl with brilliant eyes. At this time, Carl was still in his transformed state. The mysterious and noble posture had a visual impact. Thinking about Carl's performance in the battle just now, her heartbeat became more and more violent.
Kuma carried a knocked-out pirate to Carl, put his hand on his abdomen, and then a red transparent bear paw emerged from his back.
He casually threw the pirate into the red bear paw, and with a shrill scream, Carl stretched his body with a relaxed expression and said with a smile,
"Thank you, Kuma."
Kuma scratched his head and said,
"Brother, this is what I should do..."
Ginny was still gently rubbing Carl's belly, while Lucia was rubbing Carl's back from behind. He was treated like an emperor.
Carl closed his eyes and took a breath. The silver hair that reached his waist gradually gathered, the silver ribbon surrounding his body disappeared, and he returned to his original appearance.
