[Chapter serial series·Darkness is coming (End)·"The attack failed"]

[The wind was high and the waves were strong, the sky was dark, and I don’t know how long I had been fighting the sea. The small raft finally sailed out of the storm. The sky was clear and the sea calmed down. I couldn’t see any islands at a glance. Except for Shiliu, Katrin, and Sand Crocodile.

Except for those who came out of several prisons who were even more dying, Blackbeard and others were a little tired, but they were okay. Suddenly, a bruised pirate clutching broken boards floated on the sea, and Blackbeard used the Dark Fruit to catch him.

When I asked, I was shocked to realize that the war on top was actually over!]——

"Hehehehe, you really know how to cause trouble, damn 'redhead'!"

On the ice, Moria, who was tall and weird, pushed away a large number of marine soldiers scattered around. Jie Jie smiled strangely and expressed his dissatisfaction, "If we fight for a while longer, there will be many more marine corpses! He just came to intervene at this time.

!”

Over there, Hawkeye carried Black Blade Ye on his back and walked towards Big Bear in the cold wind on the ice. He raised his head and looked at him for a while.

The big bear also lowered his head, and the data stream passed through his eyes. He recognized that he was an ally, so he ignored it and continued to use his meat ball fruit ability to kill the remaining living people on the ice who were killed by the Handsome Pirates.

Under the influence of the hypnosis of visionary Marianne, the sailors who were shivering on the ice but still chatting with each other calmly were awakened.

"..." Hawkeye was silent, and then Moria laughed strangely from behind: "Hehehe, who would have thought that the former 'tyrant' would become like this? There was a pink-haired female pirate before.

, seems to care about him very much, crying so sadly! Hehehehehe..." Mihawk ignored him, but Moria was still saying: "'Red Hair' seems to be a swordsman too, don't you agree with him?

Have you passed two moves?"

"Are you very free?" Mihawk then looked back, "Do you want me to come and have a go at you?"

"Hehehehe...forget it, we are both from the Shichibukai, I won't fight you!" Moria laughed weirdly, "We should leave too, but there is no ship, and there is no more Marinefando, how should we leave?

Woolen cloth?"

look around……

As far as the eye can see, there is an endless sea of ​​ice, and the island of Malinvando in the center of the ice has been completely destroyed.

Dozens of warships and dozens of pirate ships from the New World were displayed around the original navy headquarters. They were all destroyed one after another in the melee between the navy and the pirates.

There are no boats available and there is no way to go...

…

Hundreds of miles away, Ace was carrying Luffy, the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates, and the remaining members of their Whitebeard Pirates, rushing to the edge of the frozen sea.

In front of you is the sea!

There is no boat.

How should I keep walking?

"Before we left, we dismantled some planks from the destroyed pirate ship..." On Jozi's side, they held up many broken hard planks, "Let some people sit on them. Those without abilities still have the strength.

Just swim and push the plank, take turns, and you should be able to reach the nearest island!"

"Wood board? This is too shabby. Let me take a look at it!"

Franky walked over with a smile.

"Why is Luffy still sleeping?" Nami gasped, and when she saw Luffy sleeping deeply on Ace's back, she couldn't help but be speechless, "Ace, are you almost exhausted?"

She habitually wanted to give Luffy an electrotherapy treatment, but several small arcs of electricity popped out from her fingertips. She couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and then sighed, her physical strength was almost at its bottom.

Moreover, because he had taken Chopper's secret medicine "Sendou" regardless of the consequences, unknown side effects seem to be coming...

Looking around, Zoro and Sanji, who were also taking Sendu beans to fight the explosion, were gritting their teeth and holding on, as if they could fall down at any time. Chopper was the first to eat, and now he can only hang on Usopp's shoulder to rest.

Brooke is a skeleton, and he couldn't eat fairy beans originally. Although he is tired now, he is okay, taking care of the languid Mei Li.

"Do you want to wake him up?" Marianne came over with the drawing board on her back, "He should be easily affected by hypnosis, and there is too much fatigue accumulated in his body, so he can't sleep."

"Let him sleep a little longer..." Ace's eyes were bloodshot and seemed to have dark circles. He forced himself to sigh and put Luffy down.

At this moment, a scream and a few cries came from the pirate crowd over there.

"Izo! Captain!"...

Ace was suddenly startled, handed Luffy to Nami, stumbled on his feet and ran towards that direction.

"Izo!" The corners of Ace's eyes twitched, and he held Izo, whose face was pale, whose kimono was soaked with dried dark red blood, and opened a shocking wound. The latter's eyes were distracted, and the corners of his mouth were hooked, as if there was something in front of him.

Hallucinating, he slowly raised his hand, grabbed the horn pendant around Ace's neck that looked very similar to his hometown Onigashima, and said angrily: "Is this... the feeling of death... Lord Oden..."

"Izo..." Ace's bloodshot eyes were filled with tears. Jozi, Bista and other captains standing around him couldn't help but close their eyes or cry silently.

"Ace...Ace...I want to ask you something..." Izo opened his eyes wide.

"I promise you, just say it." Ace choked, holding back his grief.

Yi Zang curled his lips and murmured: "I am in the country of Wano... and I have a younger brother... for me... for me..."

The muttering was so low that even the sight and sound could not be heard clearly. The blood-stained hands of the samurai from Wano weakly let go of Ace's horn pendant and dropped to the ice.

"Izo!!"

There was mourning all around. Ace stared hard, gritted his teeth, hugged Izo's body, showing signs of pain little by little, closed his eyes, lowered his head, and bent over tremblingly, tears falling on Izo's body.

superior.

Watching this scene from a distance, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates also expressed sadness. They are all pirates and the heartache of losing their companions is extremely uncomfortable if you just think about it.

"Wow!"

The waves broke and the ice was cracked. The pirates who were assembling makeshift wooden boats over there were furious, "What is it? A sea monster? It's looking for death!"

"No, it's not the Neptune type..."

…

So you wanted to hitch a ride?

Mihawk was speechless, but that was true. After all, Moria was a person with abilities. He had no boat on the sea and could not move even an inch.

“After this battle, how long can the ‘Shichibukai’ brand continue to hold up?”

Mihawk took one last look at the busy big bear that had been transformed into a "living weapon" by the World Government, shook his head and walked away on the ice alone.

Moria's eyes rolled around, looking around on the ice, and finally looked into the distance.

The remnants of Whitebeard and the Straw Hats fled over there. I wonder how they will continue running on the sea after reaching the end of the ice?

"Hehehehe..."

Dark shadows emerged from Moria's body, and he spread a pair of bat-like shadow wings behind his back. He flapped his wings and flew away. His body was too heavy and he could not fly high. He just broke away from the ice, flew at low altitude, and gradually moved away from the other direction.

call!

Sanda flapped his wings and looked warily at the purple-robed blind swordsman sitting on the suspended boulder.

Is he also from the navy?

The blind swordsman drew his sword, and the power of the fruits popped out, lifting the body of the Warring States Marshal floating in the "inner sea" of Marinefando that was penetrated by Lynch's bombardment, and sent it to several people who were supporting each other on the remaining ring of land in Marinefando.

in front of people.

Holding Sengoku's body, Garp had no expression on his face and his face was full of shadows. He put his old companion on the ground behind him without saying a word. He reluctantly stood up and stared closely at Zefa and Aoki Kizaru who were supporting each other.

Looking at Lynch opposite.

And "Red Hair" Shanks.

"I could have come faster, but..." Shanks smiled at Lynch and said, "I met an interesting big guy on the road. It seemed to recognize me and insisted on following me! I had to take it too.

Brought here. Now, it should have seen them..." Shanks looked back towards the distance on the ice.

big guy?

Lynch was a little confused at first, but he quickly remembered the memories of the past ten years that he had briefly browsed after taking back "B.I.B".

Could it be

Lynch and Robin looked at each other.

…

"It's a whale!"

"There are so many scars on the head. This seems to be an island whale?"

The sea water flew up like stars, pouring towards the people on the edge of the ice. Looking at the big black whale emerging from the sea, Franky, who was originally angry because the wooden boat was smashed, gradually widened his eyes.

"Rabb..." Brooke raised his skull face, and Mellie, who was resting on her afro, also opened her eyes wide in wonder.

"Rabu!" Usopp and Chopper both looked surprised.

"Rabb." Sanji breathed a sigh of relief.

Zoro smiled, his body covered with scars. He closed his eyes, tilted his head and passed out.

"Are you here to pick us up?" Nami bit her lip, tears welling up in her watery eyes.

"Roar!!"

The whale stood upright out of the sea, its big eyes widened in a smile, and it roared to the sky.

"What the hell is going on..."

"Ace's brother and his friends, do you know this whale?"

When the Whitebeard Pirates were in shock and confusion, Sanji used his last strength to build a bridge to Rab's huge mouth with gold, and smiled happily: "Let's go!"

Nami pulled the sleeping Luffy and the others together, and together they flew towards the huge mouth of the whale on the golden bridge. In the doubtful eyes of the other members of the Whitebeard Pirates, the Straw Hat Pirates had no idea.

Without hesitation, they all jumped into the abyss-like mouth of the whale. After falling into the air in the whale's stomach, Nami shouted: "You are the best, Rab!"

"Roar!!"

…

"Shanks, do you want to intervene too?"

Over there, Garp asked in a deep voice, his old fists trembling slightly due to exhaustion, but they were always clenched and never relaxed.
