Pirates: The system can also be the protagonist!

After hearing his brother's voice, Ace quickly wiped the tears from his eyes and pulled Iska to escape.

But just as Ace was about to jump off the square, a white-haired old man clenched his fists and blocked Ace's escape.

Aiden's eyes were a little dazed: "Old man..."

Garp gritted his teeth and walked forward with trembling fists: "I am also a marine. If you want to escape, defeat me first!"

"I'm sorry... old man! I won't show mercy!" Ace protected Iska behind him, raised his fists, and hot flames burned on his body.

"Come on! This is the choice you two brothers make! You can't blame others if you die!" Garp shouted loudly, but in fact he was signaling Ace to act quickly and not to be confused. He should stick to the path he has chosen.

"fire punch!"

With a little regret, Ace gathered a large amount of fire and blasted it at Garp.

However, Garp was unharmed in the flames. He opened a flame channel with one hand, flew in front of Ace, and raised his right fist to hit Ace.

But at this moment, Garp's thoughts were suddenly pulled back to the past, and his past with Ace when he was a child.

Garp really treated Ace as his own grandson, but he couldn't destroy his grandson's life with his own hands.

So Garp's fist paused for a moment, and Ace took this opportunity to punch Garp in the chin.

"Garp! You are still..." Zhan Guo's pupils shrank slightly. He had obviously expected this scene, but when it actually happened, he still found it difficult to accept.

"Sorry... old man, I disappoint you..." Ace couldn't bear to hurt the old man anymore, so he pulled Iska through the ruins, jumped down to Marinford Square in one step, and successfully reunited with Luffy and others.

"Quick! Ace, get on the boat!"

"Coming right up! Luffy, grab my hand!"

"Yes!"

Luffy laughed and grabbed Ace's arm, and Ace immediately took the two of them into the air, trying to fly directly to the ship.

"Oh...don't even think about running away..."

Kizaru, who had been slacking off, finally got serious. After quickly dodging Marco's attack, he turned into a ray of golden light and came in front of Ace.

He pointed his finger forward and a laser shot out.

Ace was shocked and quickly returned to the ground to avoid it. He was a natural type and was definitely not afraid of Kizaru's laser, but Luffy and Iska were not like that, so Ace did not dare to take the risk of taking the laser head-on.

When Whitebeard saw this, he immediately swung his fist at Kizaru, determined to open a way for Ace to escape.

The earthquake struck again, and Kizaru had to transform into an element to avoid it. Kuzan stomped his foot, and a layer of ice quickly spread towards Whitebeard.

"I'm really impressed!" The Emperor quickly ran to Tina, covered her head with his hands, and used invisible telekinesis to protect Tina and Salome.

Whitebeard was in the front, fighting one against two, and the two sides were actually evenly matched.

However, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Kuzan and Borsalino were both seriously slacking off, and there was no way an old and sick Whitebeard could defeat the two admirals.

"Tian Cong Yun Sword!"

"Violent pheasant mouth!"

Kizaru used light to rub out a long sword, and Kuzan condensed an ice bird and slid towards Whitebeard. Wherever the ice bird passed would be instantly frozen.

Whitebeard still did not dodge, took a deep breath, and swung his right hand vigorously, with the domineering aura entwined, plus the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

"Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates, as the captain, I hereby give the final order. Everyone board the ship and return to the New World!"

"It's time to say goodbye. I've been traveling long enough and I need to make a break, Navy!"

Whitebeard gave orders to everyone with a smile on his face, and that instant made all the pirates burst into tears.

"I am a remnant of the old times! There is no ship in the new era that can carry me!"

A life-threatening blow was launched, and a tsunami was set off again, and the entire Marinford became shaky.

Kuzan's ice was instantly shattered along with Kuzan, and Kizaru was even more embarrassed. He was directly beaten into golden light and crashed into Marinford, causing a violent explosion.

This attack looked very powerful, and indeed it was, but the problem was that without the capture of Armament Haki, and given Whitebeard's old age and frailty, his Conqueror's Haki was unable to prevent the two from using elementalization.

So after Kuzan and Borsalino took the blow, they quickly transformed back into their original form.

Fortunately, Whitebeard's attack created a path for Ace, Luffy and Iskar. Now they just need to get on the boat and dive into the sea to return to the New World.

After launching a full-strength attack, Whitebeard suddenly knelt on one knee, covered his chest and coughed hard, spitting out a mouthful of bright red blood from his mouth.

"Bombard! Bombard! Whitebeard is dying!"

Countless soldiers pointed their cannons at Whitebeard and fired without hesitation.

But even so, Whitebeard was still able to hold on, and he was able to wield the Kusukimi-ki to stop all the navy.

In the ruins, Akainu walked out of the burning lava and saw the weak Whitebeard on one side and Ace who was about to escape on the other side.

"Pluto!"

Akainu punched Whitebeard in the chest without hesitation, and the magma melted Whitebeard's internal organs and pierced his body.

Akainu is confident that he can hunt down Ace after dealing with Whitebeard. In his eyes, none of these pirates can escape, so he prioritizes dealing with the weak Whitebeard.

"Daddy!!!"

"Damn Akainu!"

Whitebeard's sons shouted angrily, hating themselves deeply for not being able to save their father.

Whitebeard's eyes were wide open, and he forced himself to endure the pain. He grabbed Akainu and punched him. Akainu was once again knocked away by Whitebeard.

This time, Akainu was not seriously hurt. After he stood up, Akainu could not help but sneer and mock: "Whitebeard, you are old. You are just a loser from the last era. You are a traitor who needs to rely on the navy to save Ace. You are just an incompetent old man!"

After saying these words, Ace, who was originally running, suddenly stopped, turned around and glared at Akainu: "Take back your words!"

Even Akainu didn't expect that Ace would actually stop and seemed to want to turn around and beat him.

So Akainu said with a hint of sarcasm: "Whitebeard was defeated by your father Roger and has no chance of becoming the king. He is an eternal loser. What's wrong with that?"

Ace walked towards Akainu viciously, and no matter how hard Luffy and Iska tried to pull him back, they couldn't stop him.

Watching Ace walking towards him step by step, Akainu showed no emotion on the surface, but he was actually getting excited inside.

"Whitebeard is a loser. Being called dad by a bunch of scumbags is just a family game."

"He has dominated the sea for decades but failed to become the king. He has gained nothing in life and was stabbed by the idiot he called his son. Now he is willing to die to protect you sons. This kind of life is completely meaningless!"

Ace couldn't bear to listen any longer, and immediately shouted angrily: "Dad gave us a place to live and a home. How can you, a marine working for the World Government, understand the greatness of Dad?!"

"Great? Humph! If a person does not follow the right path, there is no need for him to live. Pirates do not need shelter! Whitebeard will die as a loser. As the leader of a mob, this is the best ending!"

"Whitebeard is the pioneer of this era! You are not allowed to insult my savior!"

Ace roared, his whole body burning with flames to the extreme, and punched Akainu.

Akainu smiled triumphantly, and magma erupted, terrifying enough to instantly cover the flames.

The next moment, Ace rolled out with burns all over his body.

The Emperor stared with his eyes full of energy. He could clearly sense that the protagonist's life would end here.

The Emperor actually agreed with Akainu's words, but that was from an outsider's perspective. In fact, for Whitebeard, becoming king was not the most important thing. The most important thing was his family, so Whitebeard was not a loser.
