Chapter 107 How can such an interesting thing be missing us?
🕑 Added 2025-05-20 12:19:10 +0000 UTCMarines' preparations were in full swing.
Because Whitebeard had wiped out all the surveillance ships, Marine Headquarters became even more tense.
Famous Marine generals from all over the world were urgently summoned to Marine Headquarters.
Marineford Harbor.
Colonel Hina of the Naval Headquarters pulled up her sunglasses slightly and paused to look at the tall building of Marine Headquarters.
Then she put down her sunglasses and greeted Kabuto with a nod.
“Let’s go!”
Saying that, Hina strode forward.
Behind her, four or five Marine sergeants followed.
Not far away,
Colonel Smoker, also from the Naval Headquarters, arrived at the port.
Outside the port at this time,
a large number of Marine warships were gathering.
A Vice Admiral, a Colonel, and an officer stepped down from a warship berthed at the port,
heading toward the Naval Headquarters building.
“Dah! Dah! Dah! Dah...”
At this moment, the port was crowded with people—
almost all Marine officers.
Wearing Marine capes, with ranks of Ensign or above, they were everywhere!
Fighting forces bearing the name of justice had gathered at Marine Headquarters!
Among them were the three Admirals of the Naval Headquarters!
An unknown island.
A one-armed man with messy red hair, a black cloak, and three scars over his left eye
held a newspaper in his hand as he sat on a boulder, murmuring while gazing at the peaceful, endless sea.
“Ace... Whitebeard...”
As he whispered,
a large, burly man carrying a big meaty leg appeared behind him and called out,
“Boss, everything’s ready!”
Hearing this, the red-haired man slightly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Then he slowly stood up from the boulder.
He wore a simple white shirt, baggy cropped trousers, and sandals.
This casual outfit, paired with short stubble around his mouth, gave him a somewhat carefree look.
But beneath his relaxed appearance was a strong aura of oppression.
He was one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, a terrifying force—
Red-Haired Shanks!
“Let’s go.”
His low, serious voice echoed.
Below, his crew members all stepped aside,
making way for him to pass.
Time flew by, and several days passed.
The Public Execution Day, watched by the whole world... had arrived!
Marineford, at the port.
“Get ready now!”
“Over there! Stop dawdling!”
“Da da da...”
On the warship’s deck and the forts, sailors busily transported supplies needed for the war.
In the square,
a Marine Vice Admiral from the giant clan looked solemnly at the densely packed Marines and officers below.
These were all famous sailors summoned from across the world—
about 100,000 in total!
They were all Marine elites!
Looking at the 100,000 soldiers in front of him, the giant Marine Vice Admiral spoke.
“Don’t be paralyzed!”
“No matter what happens, only three hours remain!”
“When the time comes, everything will end!!!”
As soon as the words were spoken,
the 100,000 Marine elites raised their weapons in unison
and shouted,
“Charge!!!”
The loud, mighty roar made all of Marineford seem to tremble.
At this moment, the morale of the Marines soared!
Behind Naval Headquarters,
besides the headquarters itself, there was a large town where most Marines’ families lived.
But this time,
the entire town was empty.
Everyone had been evacuated and took refuge on the Sabaody Archipelago.
Through the big screens on the Sabaody Archipelago, the refugees
watched the war’s real-time situation.
Journalists and photographers from all over the world
gathered, eager to spread the news as quickly as possible.
“As expected from Marine Headquarters giving it their all!”
A photographer gazed at the big screen.
He couldn’t help but sigh at the formidable lineup on display.
On one side, a reporter filming also spoke solemnly.
“Whitebeard should be aware of this too.”
“Even so... will he still show up?!”
At the same time,
on the other side of Sabaody Island,
after several days of training,
Vians and the others had almost fully healed from their injuries.
The Kamui Pirates had set out again, heading to Area 33 to board the ship!
Leading his own crew,
Kronos walked the streets of the Sabaody Archipelago.
Doubt crept into his heart.
Because the streets were deserted at this hour, the silence was overwhelming.
It gave the impression that the Sabaody Archipelago had become a Sky Island.
“What’s going on? This kind of situation doesn’t seem to have happened in the original story?”
Kronos looked around, muttering to himself.
At that moment, Konan, standing beside him, answered softly,
“Do you want me to investigate?”
After a moment’s silence, Kronos shook his head slightly.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a Sky Island or not—it doesn’t concern us.”
“Let’s go to Area 33 as planned and board the ship to Fish-Man Island.”
Konan said nothing further.
Kronos continued leading the crew forward.
However, the closer they got to Area 33,
the more Kronos felt as if he had forgotten something.
Something very important.
But he couldn’t remember what exactly.
Until he accidentally saw a newspaper lying on the street.
In big letters, it read: “Portgas D. Ace — Day of Execution.”
Suddenly, Kronos snapped awake.
He stopped walking and chuckled softly.
“Hahaha, so that’s it! That’s what I forgot!”
“The start of a big event!!”
All that had happened in recent days had troubled Kronos greatly.
While Vians and the others were recuperating,
no one had mentioned it, and no one had bought a newspaper.
Besides, Kronos planned to carry out his plan only after arriving in the New World.
There was a plan behind it all.
But he had completely ignored the biggest event that was right in front of him!
The big event was coming—
the Summit War!
He slowly picked up the newspaper lying flat on the ground.
Kronos turned his head toward the side street, the road leading to the vast lawn.
A smirk appeared on his face.
“Fun things like this... how could we be left out?”
