Chương 1498: On top of the war (11)

However, the vicious Akainu pursued them relentlessly like a hungry wolf, getting closer and closer to them, and every step he took brought a terrifying pressure.

Time seemed to slow down abnormally, as if it had frozen.

Luffy was breathing heavily, and the heavy breath came out of his mouth, making a wheezing sound.

He raised his head with difficulty, his eyes fixed on the pirate ship not far away and the crew members standing on the ship who were desperately waving and shouting at them.

A relieved smile gradually appeared on Luffy's face, and he thought to himself: As long as I can get on that ship, Ace will definitely be saved!

However, at this critical moment, suddenly, a dazzling fire illuminated half of the sky, followed by an extremely hot temperature.

Luffy's heart trembled violently, the picture in his mind flashed instantly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

\"not good! \" Luffy cried out secretly and leaped to the side without hesitation.

In the blink of an eye, there was a loud bang, and boiling magma fell from the sky, heavily hitting the place where Luffy had just been.

The huge impact force created a strong shock wave that shook the ground.

Luffy reacted quickly and rolled on the ground after landing, while tightly protecting Ace beside him. He rolled on the dusty ground for more than ten times before he finally managed to stabilize his body.

\"Ace! \" Luffy didn't care about his own embarrassment and turned around to check on Ace's condition.

Just at this moment, Akainu approached the two of them slowly with heavy steps.

"Don't even think about escaping. I swear on the honor of the navy!"

Akainu was like a wounded but still ferocious wild beast, glaring at the two people fleeing in front of him with blood all over his body.

On his cheeks, blood mixed with hot magma kept flowing down, forming a strange and terrifying picture.

"How abominable!"

Looking at Akainu who was chasing him relentlessly and approaching step by step, Luffy's face, which was usually full of confidence and smile, finally revealed a trace of panic at this moment.

At the same time, Ivankov and Jinbei also noticed that the vicious Akainu was approaching quickly.

"Oh no, it's that guy Akainu!"

Ivankov exclaimed.

On the other side, Whitebeard also discovered his beloved son Ace. His weathered eyes widened instantly, revealing endless worry and anxiety.

"Ace!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs.

Almost at the same time, Garp also turned his head suddenly, and his eyes just caught the murderous Akainu, as well as Ace and Luffy who were in danger.

"Ace, Luffy!"

Garp's expression suddenly changed, and his originally resolute expression was replaced by panic.

In an instant, his body seemed to be under a spell, standing still in the same place, unable to move.

There was a dull "puff" sound, and the long sword in Whitebeard's hand ruthlessly chopped down on Garp's chest.

But at this moment, neither Whitebeard nor Garp had time to care about the conflict between them.

They only had one thought in their minds - to save Ace and Luffy!

"Ace!"

Whitebeard let out a terrified roar, took a big step without hesitation, and ran towards the direction where Ace was.

On the other side, Karp also came back to his senses from his astonishment. He took a deep breath and shouted, "No!"

Then, like an arrow shot from a bow, he rushed towards Akainu recklessly.

In the blink of an eye, Akainu's magma fist containing terrifying power was about to smash towards Luffy and Ace.

However, the distance between them was too far. Even if they tried their best to rush over, by the time they arrived, it would be too late and the cucumber dish would have already gone cold.

At this moment, Luffy widened his eyes and looked at the huge lava fist that was falling towards him like a mountain crushing an egg in horror.

"Luffy!"

On the other side, Ace also opened his eyes wide, staring at Luffy who stood in front of him without hesitation. His eyes were instantly filled with bloodshot, and he screamed with anger.

Just as Akainu's magma fist, which was powerful enough to destroy the world, was about to strike down heavily, at the critical moment, a sharp and piercing whistle suddenly came from the distance.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "boom" and a black shadow fell from the sky at lightning speed, smashed heavily in front of Luffy, and penetrated deeply into the extremely hard ground.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a trident emitting a mysterious glow all over.

Surprisingly, facing Akainu's full-strength magma fist, the trident was as steady as a rock and did not move at all.

Not only that, there was also a faint flickering and flowing of colorful light on its surface, as if it had endless power.

This sudden change surprised everyone present.

"Trident? How come a trident suddenly appeared?"

The Seven Warlords of the Sea, who had been watching the battle from the sidelines almost as a bystander, were also slightly startled when they saw the scene in front of them, with looks of astonishment on their faces.

And when they saw clearly the trident stuck upside down in the ground, the expression of one of them - Doflamingo - suddenly changed.

Without hesitation, he turned his head to look at the rough sea, and saw a huge, majestic and golden ship sailing against the wind and waves, slowly coming into people's sight.

"That's... the Golden Pirates!"

Doflamingo recognized the ship and the people on board at a glance, and began to ponder in his heart.

"Fufufufufufufufu..."

A low and strange laugh suddenly sounded, breaking the originally calm sea surface.

Doflamingo grinned, a slightly mocking smile appeared on his face: "The Rockefeller family has appeared again! This is really interesting."

He smiled and narrowed his eyes, revealing an unfathomable expression.

Doflamingo looked a little disheveled at this moment. His clothes were badly torn and his breathing seemed very weak. He looked as if he had just experienced a fierce battle.

However, even in such a disadvantage, his eyes still sparkled with excitement and curiosity, and he was not affected by the predicament at all.

Mihawk, who was standing aside, just glanced at Doflamingo lightly, then shifted his gaze to the vast sea.

At this moment, a slight vibration was heard from the sea area of the Navy Headquarters in the distance.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a huge ship shining with golden light slowly approaching.

The ship is like a moving mountain of gold, emitting a dazzling brilliance.
