It was the time when Maud and Whitebeard were in trouble.

Akainu, who had regained her form, attacked Whitebeard without hesitation.

Big fire spitting!

The magma flowing out of Akainu's right arm quickly gathered into a huge lava fist.

Immediately,

The thrust like a volcano erupts, launching the fist condensed by the magma out.

The huge lava fist that exuded the high temperature that seemed to burn out the sins in the world came to Whitebeard and Maud without any obstacles.

This big fire, wrapped in the ultimate murderous intent, did not take Mode's situation into consideration at all.

The scorching fire came first, covering the corners of Maud and Whitebeard's eyes.

"Akainu..."

Mod glanced from the corner of his eyes to the huge lava fist burning with a large amount of flames coming straight, and his eyes couldn't help but feel cold.

Before the Big Breaking Fire was about to come, Mod did not hesitate at all. He first let down Bailey, and then directly exchanged positions with the Shadow Clan.

Swish—!

The next moment.

Maud appeared in the air and grabbed Bailey's double guns.

The shadow clone who replaced him tightly held a shadow knife with a shape that was almost the same as Qiu Shui, and faced the white beard.

But this will be the time when the big fire is coming. If Whitebeard wants to kill Shadow clone, he must use his body to resist the big fire with Akainu's full firepower.

"Magma bastard."

It's two different things to take the lead bullet with your face and take the big fire of Akainu with your body.

Naturally, Whitebeard could not have killed the Shadow Clan for one chance, so that his body could take over Akainu's big fire spitting fire.

Mode also saw this and did not hesitate to exchange positions with the shadow clone.

and,

The shadow will be afraid of attacks covered with armed colors, but there is no need to be afraid of natural attacks such as Akagi Akiji Ace.

Under the control of Maud's command, he faced Yu Bai's shadow clone and immediately transformed into a two-dimensional form, turning into a shadow covering the ground.

Whitebeard ignored the shadow's movements and drove his knife to slash the big fire that Akainu hit.

Kakka—

Light marks appeared on the huge lava fist, and then they were shattered into hundreds of pieces, shooting at Akainu's body like a shotgun.

Puff, puff.

The fragments of flames hit Akainu's face and body, but they were like stones sank into the swamp, only causing insignificant waves.

In the air.

Mode took advantage of the situation to withdraw his shadow, then removed Moon Step, landed on the ground from the sky, and looked at Akainu coldly.

"Akainu, I won't pretend that I didn't see the attack just now."

"Why, with your ability to exchange positions with shadows at any time, it is not difficult to avoid the scope of the 'big fire'. I really 'trust' your ability to avoid danger, so I made such a judgment."

Akainu turned his head and glanced at Maud, raised his hand and adjusted the angle of the hat.

“My judgment is accurate in terms of the results.”

"Ho, it makes sense."

A dangerous smile appeared on Maud's face. Instead of continuing to get entangled about this matter, Bailey turned into a single shot and held it in his left hand.

Then,

Mod stopped in place, slowly calmed down his emotions, and looked at Akainu with calm eyes.

This posture is clearly meant to ask Akainu to take action first.

Akainu didn't care either.

His self-confidence comes from his strong strength, and his strong strength is his confidence.

Not far away.

After cutting off Akainu's "Big Fire Breathing", Whitebeard slowly closed his knife, his chest slightly undulating, and was breathing.

The successive high-intensity battles, as well as the two attacks with Maud just now, were constantly pushing his body to the edge of the cliff.

The decline of physical strength is a phenomenon that elderly people cannot avoid.

But compared to the problem of physical exhaustion, organs that are almost at their limit are the most serious flaws.

"That little devil..."

While breathing, Whitebeard recalled the situation when she was fighting with Maud just now.

In that short few seconds, some things that had been long-lost in the heart were awakened.

only……

Now he has lost the qualification to enjoy it.

If it were someone else, it would have fallen long ago.

But with his strong will, he deserves the title of the world's strongest, allowing this body, which is like the remaining fire in the wind, to continue to evaporate the remaining heat.

However,

Even if the [willpower] of this world is a force that can turn defeat into victory in desperate situations, it has its limits.

“I’ve traveled long enough…”

When the body shows certain symptoms, the white beard seems to be able to see the end of the body.

However, he had already realized that he had died here in battle.

Therefore, even if the body can no longer bear his will, he will still squeeze out the last trace of vitality and fulfill his duties as an elder and a captain as much as he can.

Although Whitebeard was just gasping slightly, Maud and Akainu keenly noticed that Whitebeard's breath was weakening.

"You can't stand the difficulty of time, white beard."

Akainu's right fist turned into boiling magma and walked towards the white beard.

Sweat was oozing from the white beard's forehead, and he looked at Akainu who was stroking with expressionless face.

Maud stood there, looking silently at the white beard that highlighted the decline.

When he used the knife just now, he could actually feel that he had the upper hand.

This also means that the white beard has reached an urgent level.

He would feel regret for Whitebeard, but he would not have any empathy.

This man who once shocked the world in the old era has experienced the scenery on the top of the mountain.

There should always be a day when the curtain comes to an end.

Inside the venue.

Under Maud's sidelines, Akainu's pace of moving towards Whitebeard gradually accelerated and finally started running.

There are no twists and turns, just driving the magmatic fists to hit the white beard's body.

Whitebeard did not avoid it, and his fist gathered with shocking force suddenly faced Akainu's magma fist.

Bang!

Two fists that were not giving in to each other collided in mid-air, and the scorching waves of air surged out.

Even though the breath was weakening, the shock force of the Whitebeard hit through his fist still steadily blocked Akainu's hot magma.

only……

The attack was blocked.

But white beard's mouth quietly dripped out of blood.

Seeing this, Akainu smiled coldly.

Maud, who was watching, naturally saw this scene.

A calm eyes fell on Akainu.

Then,

Mode directly took back the shadow of the fixed execution stand and the straw hat gang.

Lost the limits of shadows.

The Straw Hats and the Group regained their freedom, and the execution platform collapsed.

At this moment, they, led by Sabomarco, finally saw the opportunity to rescue Ace very clearly.
