BLOOD DRIPPED FROM YOUR LIPS as marco healed you using his blue flames of resurrection, a technique from his devil fruit.
"i'm okay marco, go! we can't waste any more time," he hesitated, but went on anyway, only to have his arm chained with seastone.
"commander marco!!"
"commander jozu is done for!!"
"the commanders are falling like flies!!"
you spat the blood that was left in your mouth. you feel yourself going deaf. this war is overwhelming. your wound wasn't completely healed, so you're still bleeding.
"captain!" four of your crew members crowded you; they had scratches and wounds, but they didn't mind.
a war isn't exactly a recommended place to have a panic attack. you bit your lip until it bleed, worrying kurose once more. "don't bite your lip, [name]."
"no, it's okay. let's go, we're not losing just yet." you stood up, wiping the blood from your mouth. it was already dry.
jozu was down, marco's ability was cancelled out by a seastone chain, you were finally injured, and whitebeard was being swarmed with attacks.
no! i can't afford to be distracted!
you and kurose swung your swords towards the platform as the blades of the executioners slowly inch into ace's neck.
"STOP IT ALREADY!!!" a wave of haoshoku haki flooded the plaza. a tremendous power to dominate, and it's not even refined yet. a haki of the supreme king, unleashed by a young captain.
your grin turned to laughter. so this is the power that the new generation have. he did it with no control, and he's not even aware of what he did. what kind of monster are you, monkey d. luffy.
"Men!! use all you've got to back up strawhats!!"
with a bleeding body, whitebeard eyed you, as you wiped the blood that still flowed through your mouth before turning his eyes to the straw-hatted boy.
just try it, little brat!! if you have the will of the d., then show me what's after this era!! [name]! this boy has the potential.... does he?
"go strawhat!! free your brother!!" luffy has reach the platform, there was only one more obstacle. his own grandfather.
this has now become a fight against family. between love and justice, what should truly win in the end? even you don't know. but from how garp accepted luffy's punch and let himself fall. a grandfather's love is precious, they said, they are the ones who were the happiest after knowing they'll become a grandfather. a love that a grandparent gives is something different from a love that your parents, brothers, or friends give you. it's something more than that, something that will scar you until the very end.
