NIP Chapter 111: Chen Ye and Marco!
Chapter 111: Chen Ye and Marco!
Distant water cannot quench a nearby fire.
Marco's last words instantly cooled everyone's previously high fighting spirit.
The raging anger had not dissipated, but was only temporarily suppressed, transforming into an even more tormenting sense of powerlessness and anxiety.
"hateful!"
"Are we just going to stand by and watch Fishman Island get bullied by those bastards?"
"That's the territory Dad's protected for decades!"
That's right.
They had just finished a fierce battle with the Navy Headquarters, and everyone was wounded and exhausted.
The Moby Dick was also badly damaged and could not sail at full speed.
Even without sleep, it would take some time to travel from the New World to Fishman Island, the first half of the Grand Line.
By the time they arrived, it was too late!
"Gurala la la..."
The white-bearded man's laughter was somewhat low, lacking its former boldness, and only containing barely suppressed anger and a hint of fatigue.
He certainly wanted to turn the ship around immediately and blast that crazy woman Charlotte Linlin and her entire kingdom into the sea.
But when he looked at his sons on the deck, their bodies wrapped in bandages yet still exuding a murderous aura, he felt a pang of heartache.
They've just been through a major battle and are already at their limit.
In the midst of this oppressive silence, a voice rang out, neither too loud nor too soft, yet it clearly penetrated into everyone's ears.
"I'll go."
The sound was very soft, yet it made everyone pause in their actions.
It is Chenye.
He had somehow reached the bow of the ship; the sea breeze ruffled his clothes, and his back view was unusually calm.
"Tatsuba?"
Marco paused for a moment, then immediately shook his head.
You're going alone? Isn't that too dangerous?
Brother Marco, don't forget my strength. I can beat up the Five Elders. What is Charlotte Linlin compared to me?
and!
"I'm not going alone."
He paused, his gaze falling on Marco.
"I'm going with Marco."
"us?"
Marco was even more puzzled.
"Just the two of us? That's still..."
"We can fly."
Chen Ye spoke again, uttering four words.
boom!
The sound of those four words exploding in everyone's minds was far less earth-shattering than the phrase "overthrow the world government."
But at this moment, in this desperate situation, it is more resounding than any grand words!
Silence fell once again on the deck.
Yup!
fly!
Marco is a user of the Phoenix Fruit, which allows him to transform into a blue phoenix and soar through the skies!
And Chen Ye...
The image of the golden sword of light that pierced the heavens and earth during the Marineford War, and his transformation into the sun god Apollo, flashed through everyone's minds!
This man also possesses the ability to fly!
Moreover, his speed...
It's so fast it's completely unreasonable!
"That's right..."
Marco's eyes suddenly lit up, and his mind suddenly cleared!
How could he forget that!
He and Chenye are the two most mobile members of the entire Whitebeard Pirates!
If the two of them flew directly there, they could completely reduce the long sea voyage time to the minimum!
Moreover, Chen Ye's current strength is so great that he has few rivals. What is Charlotte Linlin compared to him?
"this……"
"This method will work!"
"Very good!"
The stagnant air was shattered! A burning light rekindled in pairs of eyes that had been dim!
Diamond Joz and Vista exchanged glances, all seeing excitement in each other's eyes.
This is indeed the most efficient, and only, way to break the deadlock right now!
"Gurarararararar—!"
A deafening burst of laughter erupted, silencing all the noise on the deck!
It's a white beard!
He looked at Chen Ye, his aged eyes filled with unprecedented appreciation and satisfaction.
All the fatigue and anger vanished, leaving only heartfelt joy and pride!
"Gurarararar...Good lad! Well said!"
Whitebeard picked up the huge naginata beside him and slammed it hard onto the deck!
Boom! ! !
The entire Moby Dick was violently shaken!
His gaze swept across the entire room, and his voice boomed like a bell.
"Then it's settled!"
Whitebeard extended his giant finger, pointing it directly at Chenye, and gave an order to the entire crew.
"From this moment on, Chen Ye's words are my words!"
"His orders are my orders!"
"Everyone, obey unconditionally!"
This statement is tantamount to handing over the supreme command of the Whitebeard Pirates to Chen Ye in front of everyone!
This carries far more weight than the previous proposal to have him take over as captain!
This is a complete entrustment and delegation of authority!
Marco, Joz, Vista, and others were shocked, but this time, no one objected.
They all looked at Chen Ye, their eyes filled with admiration.
"Yes, Dad!"
"Yes, sir!"
The response was like a thunderclap and a tsunami, resounding through the sky.
Chen Ye looked at the white beard, nodded, and said nothing more.
He knew that this was the greatest trust the old man could offer.
"Marco."
Chen Ye turned to look at the phoenix.
"Ready?"
"certainly!"
Marco grinned, his fighting spirit rising.
"I can't wait any longer!"
He had barely finished speaking!
"Hey——!"
A phoenix cry that pierced the clouds and split rocks suddenly pierced the sky!
Blue flames shot into the sky, instantly outlining a magnificent and extraordinary phoenix in mid-air!
The fiery wings spread gracefully, creating scorching waves of air.
Almost at the same moment.
Om-!
Endless golden light erupted from Chen Ye's body, its radiance reaching for the heavens!
He did not transform into Apollo, nor did he take on any other form.
He just stood there, and his whole being became a human-shaped blazing sun, radiating boundless light and heat without restraint!
The golden light was so bright that everyone on the deck could barely open their eyes!
next second.
Whoosh!
A golden figure of light soared into the sky and hovered instantly beside the phoenix.
One gold and one blue.
One is light, the other is fire.
Two figures stood side by side in the air, their aura causing the entire sea to tremble.
"I'm gone."
Chen Ye's voice came from high above.
"Dad, everyone, wait for our good news."
Before he could finish speaking...
boom--!!!
Two beams of light suddenly broke the sound barrier at a speed completely imperceptible to the naked eye!
One gold and one blue, tearing through the sea of clouds, leaving behind two enormous fiery tails that pierced the sky, shooting furiously toward the distant horizon!
In the blink of an eye.
Then it completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
On the deck, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates stared blankly at the empty sky, unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
That speed...
It can no longer be called fast.
That's practically the law itself!
After a long while, the white-bearded man finally looked away, the smile on his lips impossible to suppress.
"Gurarararara... This is really... something to look forward to!"
