“You underestimate me, brother. Do you think I don't have the power to defeat the Marines? Stay there and wait, because we're going to get you out of there. Did you hear that, Sengoku and Sailor Garp?” Luffy's voice echoed through the place.

The people of Sabaody murmured after hearing this declaration, looking nervously at what would happen next.

In the middle of the war, at the back of the bay where there wasn't a good view of what was happening in the bay, Akainu looked at Luffy's declaration with fury but just clenched his teeth, being the only thing he could do. He then proceeded to talk to one of Whitebeard's fleet members.

“I swear I will kill you today... Monkey D. Luffy...” He said, moving to find Squard.

Meanwhile, in the plaza, Luffy saw Ace looking at him speechlessly while his gaze returned to his group. “Let's go!” Luffy announced.

The crew nodded, preparing for the fight. Nojiko clenched her fists while small explosions occurred in them, ready to fight. Robin created wings on her back with the power of the Hana-Hana no Mi. Chopper took a pill and swallowed it. Bepo was taken by surprise while Robin created arms on his back and put a Black Power on his head, making the mink go from a scared look to someone confident. Hachi drew his six swords. Baby-5 transformed her arms into weapons. Vivi prepared by transforming her hands into wind, Alvi donned his hat while placing his club on his shoulder. Lucy made her feathers generate movement, while her body began to turn pink and she started to emit steam. And finally, Shirahoshi just clung to Luffy's neck, keeping on his back while her tail swayed.

Luffy looked satisfied with everyone. He began to walk with Shirahoshi on his back, while the group started to follow him, the lower-ranked Marines not even trying to face him.

“Did you hear what he said... he talked about destroying the Marines...” The Marines murmured to each other in fear.

“How can we face him... he defeated Kizaru in Sabaody... what can we do... against him...?” The people around soon began to discuss.

“Don't let that intimidate you!!” Sengoku's voice resounded across the battlefield as all the Marines looked around for some hope. All of them had much lower morale since the beginning of the fight, and very few had woken up from the 20,000 Marines fallen by Luffy and his crew's Haki.

“We are justice, believe in our symbol, we cannot let this evil win today. He is a threat that should even be a priority as much as Whitebeard himself!” Sengoku exclaimed. “We are the bastion against evil, we cannot let this evil leave here today, use all your strength to destroy them!!” Sengoku exclaimed as the Marines began to have more serious eyes while looking at that group.

Sengoku didn't finish, as he picked up another Den Den Mushi, “Sentomaru, initiate the attack, but come straight to the bay now!” He exclaimed as the Den Den Mushi seemed to nod.

“Will do, Sir Sengoku.”

Meanwhile, Whitebeard's commanders noticed the movement of the Marines as they began to move.

“Commodore Smoker!” Tashigi commented as Smoker transformed into smoke, reappearing in front of Luffy, looking at him with dangerous eyes.

“Smoker...” Luffy said, breaking into a smile. “You finally showed up. I hope you've gotten stronger since the last time.” He commented, while Smoker clicked his tongue.

“Hina will also help!!” Hina appeared beside Smoker, also looking at the group with a challenging look, despite knowing she was weaker.

“Hina, how have you been? Have you thought about accepting my invitation to go out with me?” Luffy commented.

“Hina does not date pirates...” She said.

“Is she your wife too, Luffy-Sama?” Shirahoshi asked from his back.

“What?! Since when do you know this woman, Luffy?” Vivi asked with suspicious eyes.

“When I left with Enel from Skypiea, she refused to have dinner with me...” Luffy commented.

“You are hitting on another woman as soon as you leave the others...?” Nojiko raised an eyebrow at Luffy.

“You know I'm a man who will have a big family, so I need to find good women to be mothers of my children...” Luffy commented without any shame.

“You should look ahead more, Luffy, there's certainly someone who doesn't like hearing that. Fufufu.” Robin commented as Luffy looked behind Hina from a distance, with Hancock's eyes full of fury as they caught fire and she destroyed the statues she had created.

“Well... she is certainly jealous...” Luffy murmured.

“If Nami heard that, it wouldn't be very nice either.” Nojiko commented while facing new giants, destroying the ice floor with their enormous weight.

Luffy said nothing but internally agreed with the cat burglar's sister. Meanwhile, the Marines saw Smoker and Hina appear in front of the pirates, who stopped to talk to them, and a new spark of hope ignited in the Marines' hearts.

“Yes! We are the shield against evil!”

“Commodore Smoker and Captain Hina can face the evil, why can't we?”

“That's right, we are justice!! Kill all the pirates!!”

“Yes, let's eliminate them!!”

The Marines quickly began to become aggressive, advancing against Whitebeard's pirates, gaining ground as they mercilessly cut them down.

“AHHH!” A pirate felt the Marine's blade strike him as he fell to the ground.

“Let's kill all the pirates!!” That Marine shouted as he ran to another.

A pirate began clashing swords with a Marine as they fought, and despite the Marine's fury, he found himself losing to the pirate as he was cut down by him.

“Damn Marines, you can't handle Whitebeard's pirates!!” The pirate roared, as two new shadows emerged, and before he could react, he lost his head to the attacking Marines.

“Kill them all!!” The Marines continued exclaiming as they began advancing across the battlefield, trying to reach Whitebeard.

All the Marines were fervent, while Whitebeard watched them from his position, observing how the fight seemed to turn in the Marines' favor now. He felt a presence approaching him, none other than one of his foolish sons, Squard, coming towards him. Whitebeard wondered why he was here when he should be guarding the rear, but he waited for him to approach to see what he wanted.

Meanwhile, Sengoku looked at the movement arising from the Marines and nodded with satisfaction, seeing that they were starting to gain ground. “We're improving bit by bit... but we're still far behind...” Garp commented, sitting there looking at the battle with quite depressed eyes. His grandson had called him a sailor, and it hurt him a little, but he couldn't complain much.

“Yes... but it's a start... I hope we can turn this battle around.” Sengoku murmured. He had to be careful not to let Luffy sacrifice the Tenryuubitos as he did with the first one. He had the approval to sacrifice the Tenryuubitos, but he had to ensure that Luffy would be killed, so he couldn't simply continue with the plan to kill Ace prematurely.

He looked up as the Tenryuubitos continued fighting against those giant monsters and other users, with Kong having Kaido's daughter as his opponent. If any of them defeated the Straw Hats, it would be an opportunity to turn this battle around.

His gaze returned to the two who stopped in front of Luffy, hoping that Smoker would do some favor, even though he had already done enough by boosting the Marines' morale while maintaining his stance against the enemies.

“I'm going too!” Returning to the battlefield, Tashigi appeared beside him.

“Miss Hina, I won't let that damned pirate ask you out before me!” Fullbody also appeared, looking at Luffy with angry eyes.

“Kuina's twin sister?” Chopper exclaimed, surprised that Tashigi was identical to his friend.

“They are very similar...” Robin also commented.

“...” Tashigi remained silent, not responding to any comments as she drew her sword to face them.

“As I said in Loguetown... the sea is full of mysteries.” Luffy said and looked at Fullbody. “It's good to see you, I still remember when we met in the East Blue and I threw that gigantic cannonball at your ship...” Luffy commented, finding the scene still a comical memory.

“Enough talk... now I will be your opponent, Straw Hat.” Smoker said, and Luffy looked at him amused.

Smoker frowned internally; he had trained for months, even though he didn’t go to Enies Lobby during the conflict that happened there. He wanted to prove his strength after months of training. This was the moment for him to show that he was capable of demonstrating his power. All the training he had done was just for this moment.

'I fought harder than everyone. I was always the last to leave my repetitions in Marine training. I mastered the Six Styles, and now I will face this pirate...!' Smoker began to murmur internally as he stared at Luffy, who was looking at him calmly.

'Am I still a child to you...?' Smoker couldn’t help but think as the guy who humiliated him so much in Cocoyasi Village and Alabasta was there, looking at him as if he were just a fly. 'I will prove it!' He said to himself as he drew his weapon and pointed it at Luffy, while Hina, Tashigi, and Fullbody also prepared themselves.

“They're going to face them!!”

“Go, Captains, Lieutenant, and Commodore!!”

The Marines exclaimed as Smoker glanced at them and then returned his attention to Luffy, preparing to advance. But everything changed; he looked at the pirate and felt paralyzed as if the world had frozen at that moment.

‘What is this?!!’ Smoker murmured, stunned and shocked internally, while even his weapon trembled. He looked at Luffy as if he were a thousand meters tall, and he, a mere ant, someone who would never reach that height.

“I can understand and even admire your will to fight, Smoker...” Luffy's voice echoed through that frozen space. “But you are weak. Come to me when you are truly strong enough, but it’s not your moment now.” As he spoke, the place seemed to shatter, and everything returned to normal with the sounds of war around them.

But before Smoker could react, an explosion of Haki emanated from Luffy again, blasting in all directions. In the next moment, Marines and pirates were caught in the vortex, but the Marines began to be affected again, falling to the ground once more.

Luffy saw not only Smoker but also the other three paralyzed, and he started to walk, while the battlefield was once again bathed in his Haki, passing by Smoker and the others as if they were simple soldiers. His companions followed him as he continued to approach the plaza, releasing his Haki.

As Sengoku saw the Marines' morale drop once again because of this, he clenched his teeth. Coby looked at Luffy from a distance with a lost gaze; he was just an ant to Luffy, but he still remembered his words on that boat sailing to Shell Town. Luffy did not laugh at his dream; he said that Coby had to be the first person to believe in it, and that’s what mattered in the end.

Coby felt a flame ignite within him; he had to prove he was powerful enough to face Luffy as well, so he started to run.

“Coby!!” Helmeppo shouted to his companion, running on the battlefield.
