One Piece – I Am A Different Luffy!

Chapter 307 – War 01.

[Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]
Third Person POV

Marineford, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

The ship burst the coating they used to travel underwater, while Newgate looked at the Marine fortress with a smile.

"Look, it's the 14 division commanders...!" someone shouted to the group on the Moby Dick.

"Gurararararara. It's been a long time, Sengoku. I hope my beloved son is well..." Whitebeard spoke while Sengoku continued to grit his teeth, with Whitebeard gaining the upper hand in his strategy.

"Ace..." Whitebeard returned to Ace once more. "Just hold on a little longer..."

"..." Ace was in inner turmoil, looking at the ship in front of Marineford, feeling guilty as he knew many of them would die there today. It was an agonizing feeling for him, gritting his teeth as hard as he could.

"You..." His gaze fell on the crew on the deck: Marco, Jozu, Vista, Izo, Fossa, Namur, among many other division commanders looking at him at that moment. The same could be said of all the members belonging to the divisions, even those of lower rank; they were all his family, members who shared happy and sad moments over the years.

There was also the fleet approaching Marineford by sea, following with determined faces on their leading ships, as Ace could see. Even though their chance of dying there today was high, they still held their heads high.

His gaze lowered once more to the Moby Dick and fell on the man at the bow of that ship; Whitebeard had been watching him the entire time. Ace's eyes welled up with guilt as he looked at his father.

"You shouldn't have come!!" he immediately shouted, tears streaming down. "I ignored the warnings and left the ship. Why didn't you abandon me, after all? I'm here because of my own choices, my fault. You shouldn't be here; no one should die because of me...!" He said, placing his head on the ground, burdened by the guilt of all these consequences.

"Who let you go was me. Of course, your safety is my responsibility... My foolish son..." Whitebeard responded calmly.

And before Ace could reply, he put his weapon aside and crossed his arms. With a movement that most couldn't understand, he swung his arms to each side with clenched fists, and the next moment they stopped, with cracks beginning to distort the space like breaking glass with the same sound.

All those who didn't know the terror of the Gura Gura no Mi tried to guess what would happen next. Then the sea began to change on both sides of Marineford, starting to grow taller and taller, even covering the highest part of Marineford.

"What is that?!"

"The sea, it's a giant wave!"

"Is this the power of the strongest man in the world?!"

The marines quickly began to exclaim with terror growing before them, but suddenly, everything began to descend, and without understanding, the sea was returning to normal the next moment.

Everything seemed normal after that, while the marines were confused, the pirates were silent, as if waiting for something, until the marines noticed the edge of Marineford changing the sea level. From afar, they could see something coming.

"This is the power of the Gura Gura no Mi. The power of the earthquake..." Garp commented.

"We don't just have Gold Roger's son to eliminate, but Whitebeard himself. After all, he has the power to destroy the world!" Sengoku declared.

"We're going to die here!"

"Someone stop those two tsunamis!"

The marines immediately shouted in fear as the shadow of the waves covered the entire place, with the Marine forces growing increasingly terrified.

"..." The admirals remained unmoved, that is until Kuzan simply disappeared with a soru, leaping into the air while chaos erupted around them. He moved an arm to each side, and a line of ice advanced against the two tsunamis, starting to freeze them from that point and advancing until all the water simply turned into ice beside the HQ.

"Aokiji... you foolish child..." Whitebeard commented.

"..." Kuzan didn't stop there, as he pointed at Newgate, creating three ice arrows and launching them at the man. Whitebeard merely clenched his fist and moved it, sending a wave of impact at the arrows, breaking them and hitting Kuzan himself, who immediately shattered with the power of the earthquake and fell into the bay where the Moby Dick was located.

Everyone saw the admiral turning into cracked ice and crashing into the sea before he immediately transformed into ice, freezing the entire lower part of Whitebeard's ships and even preventing other captains coming from the New World from advancing due to the ice.

"The bay is frozen!" the marines exclaimed.

"We have the admirals! The greatest force of the navy on our side, let's attack!" they shouted, gaining morale and began firing cannonballs at the ships trapped in the ice.

"Now we have a battlefield!" the pirates exclaimed and started jumping from the ship.

The next moment, Whitebeard looked from his prow. His men began to fight as marines started to emerge, and they began to run towards each other.

Blades clashed, bullets and cannon shots began to create the new music in Marineford, and the division commanders finally emerged as well.

Similarly, the vice-admirals themselves entered the battle. The ships outside the bay, trying to get in, were blocked by some.

"The war..." Sengoku said, looking at the fight in the frozen bay from the execution platform, with Ace still gritting his teeth watching it.

"...has begun." Newgate commented calmly as the fight started. No matter who won this war, one thing was certain, the world would change after this.

In Sabaody, everyone began to pay attention to the first part of the conflict. Swallowing hard, "Who will win this war..." a reporter said.

"Mom... this looks very bad!" a child said, pointing at the big screen, while his mother quickly grabbed him.

"Let's go home, you shouldn't watch this." She said immediately while taking her son away from there.

"I hope justice wins..." a frightened citizen said.

"It doesn't matter who wins... If the pirates win, we'll have more freedom on the sea. If it's the navy, we have Whitebeard's territories to take!!" a pirate exclaimed with a diabolical smile.

"..." Rayleigh continued to drink his beverage alone while all that chaos began in front of him, waiting to see that group and how they would change the war.

The same could be said of the other members of the worst generation, each having a different opinion about what they were seeing, and they would act depending on how this war ended. After all, the power game would change on the sea.

The rest of the world was no different, as everyone swallowed hard watching the screens. Those who didn't have access and only knew about the war through newspapers were waiting to hear good news from Morgans News the next day.

Luffy stood with his arms crossed on the bow of his ship. They had just felt the pressure of the Gura Gura no Mi creating a tidal wave. "The war has just begun..." he simply commented.

"Luffy, are you sure about this?" Robin approached him with a slightly worried look.

"Don't you trust me, my wife?" Luffy said with a small smile.

"You know what I'm talking about, Luffy..." she still commented, still with a worried look.

"It's going to be fine... They will be quite flashy when we arrive at Marineford..." Luffy said and looked at the sail where his flag was, as it was filled with some prisoners that Enel had captured.

"You know how this will affect all the forces coming directly at us..." Robin still insisted.

"We are world criminals, there's nothing more we can do to make the government see us as a bigger threat, this is easy to handle." Luffy said. After all, they had already attacked the Holy City, and at this point, they might even know who the current user of the Fuwa Fuwa no Mi is.

"Alright..." she sighed.

"Just get ready... This war won't be easy..." Luffy said, and Robin nodded, leaving the spot.

"Zoro..." Luffy called, and the swordsman approached as everyone was getting ready. "We'll find an ice wall. I'd like you to make an opening for us." He requested.

"Sure..." Zoro said as they looked at the horizon with a small dot appearing, where Marineford was located.

Meanwhile, the war continued fiercely, people falling immediately upon first contact as both marines and pirates fell dead to the ground.

"This is horrible..." Helmeppo commented next to Coby.

"People are dying..." Coby said, feeling sad as he saw those men with the cloak of justice falling dead.

Ace continued gritting his teeth, Sengoku looked on with a neutral tone, even seeing marines falling. Garp watched with narrowed eyes, Kizaru and Akainu remained silent, not making any move yet.

While the Shichibukai hadn't made any moves, that changed when someone took a step forward, and everyone saw Mihawk acting first.

"He's going to act!?" The surprise came from everyone, after all, no one expected to see the greatest swordsman in the world act at the first moment of the war.

"So that arrogant man is making his move..." Akainu commented, looking down.

"How scary..." Kizaru commented, gaining a bit of his old personality.

"You're going to act, Mihawk?" Doflamingo asked with some humor as well.

"I just want to see the distance between our strengths..." Mihawk commented as he looked directly at Whitebeard.

"Incredible... I want to fight him!!" someone said in a hidden part of Marineford.

"Shut up... we need to focus on the mission!" another person said.

"You know who I am, how dare you speak to me like that!?" the first person exclaimed.

"I am the same as you, you idiot. Just shut up and wait for our target to appear..." the other spoke again.

"..." Some members of CP0 were also there, but silent and not showing their expressions behind their masks.

Kong stood beside them, though feeling a bit dissatisfied with these people, he couldn't say much. After all, he couldn't say anything to these folks.

Meanwhile, everyone had their eyes on Mihawk, who looked intently at Whitebeard, gripping his sword, making a metallic sound as he drew it from his back.

Mihawk wasted no time and launched his attack as he moved his arms in a cut, generating green energy that quickly rushed to where he pointed his sword, carving the ice ground.

Whitebeard merely looked at that attack calmly, waiting for it as if it were just an annoying fly.
