When Luffy displayed such overwhelming strength, the entire battlefield instantly became incredibly quiet.
Countless people seemed frozen, staring dumbfounded at Luffy's figure, their faces filled with shock.
The Admirals, as the Marine's highest combat power, were considered monsters in the eyes of countless people.
The Gorosei, upon their arrival, instantly killed Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai, and were even stronger than an Admiral.
Yet, such a super powerful combination was dismantled by Luffy alone in an instant, and in an overwhelming manner.
What does this signify?
In the hearts of countless people, the current Luffy was already so strong that they couldn't believe it.
They stared blankly at Luffy, various trembling exclamations rising one after another.
"No...impossible?! The super-strong combination of the Three Admirals and one Gorosei was actually... in an instant..."
"Am I dreaming?! How could something so outrageous happen?"
"One person instantly defeated such a combination; this is truly absurd!"
"How can anyone be this strong?! This must not be real!"
The countless exclamations that rang out reflected their disbelief at the facts they were witnessing.
However, despite what they said, their hearts were deeply shaken by the strength Luffy displayed.
Hawkeye, observing from the outer perimeter of the battlefield, his pupils trembled, his heart filled with shock.
He stared blankly at Luffy's figure and murmured,
"I never thought you'd become this strong!"
"You're several times stronger than I imagined."
"The power of this Devil Fruit awakening combined with your Eight Gates are both abilities that can greatly enhance one's strength."
"Is that why you can display such unmatched power by only using the Seventh Gate?!"
Hawkeye had personally witnessed Luffy's Seventh Gate before and had even been defeated by him.
However, after Luffy's growth, coupled with the Seventh Gate displayed in his awakened state, he had become so strong that Hawkeye '370' couldn't even imagine it.
Moreover, he had once asked Luffy about the Eight Gates and knew that this ability had a higher level, the Eighth Gate.
He looked at Luffy in disbelief, speaking in a tone so shocked it was almost a whisper.
"You're already this strong now!"
"Then what about the Eighth Gate..."
Even Hawkeye, at this moment, dared not continue to think about it.
However, to his slight regret, it seemed that Luffy currently had no need for the Eighth Gate.
...
Sengoku and Garp were engaged in combat, but when Luffy suddenly erupted and instantly defeated several Admirals and a Gorosei, both of them were shocked, and they tacitly stopped fighting.
Sengoku exclaimed in disbelief,
"How is this possible?!"
"Those are the Three Admirals and the Gorosei!"
"Such a combination was utterly helpless against that kid?!"
"This is too ridiculous!"
"How could that brat be so strong?"
Garp, who was beside him, was also stunned.
He knew Luffy's talent was monstrous, but he never imagined it would be to this extent!
Luffy had already shocked him when he awakened, and it was because of the power Luffy displayed in his awakened state that he was willing to believe Luffy.
Now that Luffy had displayed even greater power, he was even more convinced that Luffy would definitely be able to overthrow the World Government.
Thinking about this, Garp suddenly burst out laughing.
"Wahahahahaha…"
"As expected of my grandson!"
At this moment, Garp's carefree persona came online once again.
However, his loud laughter immediately drew Sengoku's furious roar.
"Garp! You can still laugh at a time like this?!"
"Even if you've made up your mind to stand with that brat."
"But do you want to see the Marine defeated, leading to the entire world falling into a Pirate paradise?"
"No matter how chaotic the Marine is now, it is because of the Marine's existence that this world can maintain its current stability."
"If the Marine is defeated here today, don't you know what this world will become?"
This barrage of questions made Garp freeze.
He had considered this question when he was still on the Marine's side.
But now, if he were to support Luffy in overthrowing the World Government, it would mean they would have to defeat the Marine, who stood with the World Government.
And without the Marine, how to restrain those Pirates truly became a problem that Garp couldn't come up with a solution for.
Unable to figure it out, Garp suddenly reached out and picked his nose, saying carelessly.
"Well! Just leave that kind of thing to Luffy!"
"That kid still has some brains."
"Since he wants to overthrow the World Government, he must have considered such a problem, right!"
Hearing Garp say this, Sengoku was also a bit stunned for a moment.
He couldn't help but wonder how Luffy would solve such a difficult problem.
He didn't even realize that he was subtly trending towards standing on the same side as Garp.
...
Whitebeard was now completely awed by the strength Luffy displayed.
He and Roger had once been rivals and friends who admired each other in battle.
And Roger was the only one who had reached the final island and become the Pirate King in the eight hundred years since the "World's Establishment."
So Whitebeard admired Roger's strength from the bottom of his heart.
Coupled with what Roger had told him before his death, he had the idea of finding the person Roger was waiting for.
Before, when Luffy awakened and displayed super strong power, he felt that he had probably found that person.
But because of the truth about the world that Roger told him.
Even a figure like Roger believed they were powerless to contend with the World Government, thus placing their hope on a descendant who inherited Joy Boy's will.
So even though Luffy displayed his awakened power at that time, he still felt that Luffy probably needed to grow more before he could truly challenge the world.
But now, when Luffy used Eight Gates, he no longer had any hesitation.
He was already convinced that Luffy was the person Roger was waiting for.
And he believed that Luffy now absolutely had the ability to challenge the world.
As he thought this, Whitebeard suddenly became extremely excited.
He made up his mind to tell Luffy the truth of the world!
"Marco!"
Whitebeard suddenly roared, attracting the attention of the entire quiet battlefield.
Marco was originally covering the retreat of the other Pirates, but hearing Whitebeard's voice, he suddenly stopped.
"Pops?!"
He called out to Whitebeard, curious about what Whitebeard wanted to say.
Then, he, and everyone on the entire battlefield, heard Whitebeard continue.
"After this war ends…"
"Take Straw Hat to find that!"
"Now is the time!"
Even though Whitebeard didn't explicitly say it, Marco immediately understood the meaning.
He looked at Luffy, his gaze firm and burning.
He knew Whitebeard had been searching for someone all this time, and now it seemed Whitebeard had finally found him.
"Don't worry, Pops!"
"I will definitely complete what you've entrusted to me!"
This could be said to be Whitebeard's last wish, so Marco was determined to do this well.
And everyone else, upon hearing Whitebeard's words, couldn't help but be puzzled.
"What is Whitebeard saying?"
"What is that he's talking about? And now is the time? Time for what?"
Countless people were confused by Whitebeard's inexplicable words.
But Whitebeard, at this moment, suddenly grinned, looked at Luffy, and said to him.
"Straw Hat!"
"Do you want to find…"
"[ONE PIECE]?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire battlefield instantly fell silent.
Countless people pricked up their ears, holding their breath.
Luffy also looked at Whitebeard with a hint of curiosity; he didn't quite understand what Whitebeard meant.
And as Whitebeard suddenly spoke these words, what the people on the battlefield didn't know was that the entire world suddenly fell silent.
Although Satan Saint watched the den den mushi in Doflamingo's hand fall into the ruins, unable to broadcast the battlefield anymore.
However, the global broadcast was not interrupted, and some sounds from the battlefield could still be faintly heard.
Previously, due to the chaotic sounds of fighting, people couldn't hear what was happening on the battlefield at all.
But after the den den mushi suddenly became silent just now, Whitebeard's voice, which resonated throughout the entire scene, immediately followed.
This voice also reached the ears of everyone in the entire world.
ONE PIECE!
That was an existence known to everyone, especially Pirates, who all yearned for it.
At this moment, people all over the world pricked up their ears, listening with anticipation or panic to the voice that echoed across the world.
"Shut up! Whitebeard!"
"Stop him!"
A furious roar suddenly came from the den den mushi.
On the battlefield, after Satan Saint was just sent flying by Luffy, he heard Whitebeard mention [ONE PIECE], immediately roared in rage, and at the same time rushed towards Whitebeard, ordering the nearby Marine to try and stop him.
For a moment, countless Marine swarmed forward, but were blocked by Ace and some Pirates who hadn't yet reached the other side of the chasm.
And Whitebeard continued to speak with a voice that resonated throughout the entire scene and even the world.
"Go find it, Straw Hat!"
"The final island where [ONE PIECE] is located, Laugh Tale!"
"There lies a treasure that can overturn the world!"
"It has been waiting for a fated person to open it!"
"Straw Hat!"
"Don't you want to overthrow the World Government?!"
"Then go find [ONE PIECE]!"
"It will help you gain the power to overturn the world!"
"[ONE PIECE]…"
"It exists!!!"
Whitebeard's voice, like a bell, continuously echoed in everyone's ears.
Making the entire world fall into a moment of silence.
And after that moment of silence, the world… completely erupted!
"Oh oh oh oh oh…"
"Was that Whitebeard speaking just now? [ONE PIECE] actually possesses the power to overturn the world?!"
"Isn't this saying that whoever obtains [ONE PIECE] is equivalent to gaining the entire world?"
"Really? Is that true?! This is too appealing!"
"But wasn't [ONE PIECE] left by Roger? Doesn't that mean Roger already possessed the power to overturn the world? Then why was he executed?"
"Didn't you hear Whitebeard say?! He said only the fated person can open [ONE PIECE]... It's possible that [ONE PIECE] originally existed on Laugh Tale, and Roger was the first to find that treasure. But he wasn't the fated person, so he didn't gain that power!"
"That sounds reasonable!"
"Wahahahaha… I need to act quickly! Maybe I'm that fated person!"
"The power to overturn the world must be mine! I am that fated person!"
"It must be me…"
For a time, countless Pirates frantically rushed into the sea, all believing themselves to be the fated person.
...
Totto Land!
Mama's eyes widened sharply when she heard Whitebeard's words, infinite excitement flickering within them.
"Is what that old man said true or false?"
"[ONE PIECE] actually possesses the power to overturn the world?"
Perospero's eyes rolled, as if in thought, then he said.
"Mama! I think this should be false news!"
"If even the only Pirate King, a figure like Roger, couldn't open [ONE PIECE] and gain its power."
"Then who else could open this great treasure?"
After the den den mushi went dark, they couldn't see the situation on site, so they didn't know about Luffy's rampage against the Three Admirals and the Gorosei.
However, Mama, after hearing Perospero's conjecture, suddenly shook her head and said.
"Roger was just lucky; he gathered the four Road Poneglyphs pointing to the final island ahead of time."
"At that time, the Great Pirate Era hadn't begun yet, and Pirates didn't know the importance of these Poneglyphs."
"It was only after the Great Pirate Era began that these four Poneglyphs became objects of contention for all Pirates."
"I've exhausted my efforts, and even now, I've only managed to secure one!"
"As for the others, I know Kaido has one!"
"The remaining two are unknown!"
As Mama spoke these words, she suddenly became incredibly excited.
"The ONEPIECE is something I must obtain."
"If Whitebeard is telling the truth, and if I am the fated one, then I can control the entire world, transforming the whole world into one massive Totto Land!"
"Mama! Mama!"
Mama laughed excitedly, imagining that wonderful scene in her mind.
The next instant, her eyes narrowed, and she gave orders to her cadres.
"Go tell everyone that we are preparing to depart for Wano Country!"
"To obtain the ONEPIECE, we must gather all the Road Poneglyphs!"
"This fight with Kaido is unavoidable!"
...
At the same time!
Onigashima, Wano Country!
Kaido was also deeply attracted by what Whitebeard said.
"A power that can overturn the world?!"
"You truly revealed an incredible piece of information!"
After speaking, he immediately instructed his cadres.
"Immediately gather our forces; Linlin will certainly not remain idle!"
"Whitebeard said to let Marco take Straw Hat to find the ONEPIECE, which means Marco should know the whereabouts of the other Poneglyphs."
"As long as we seize the one in Linlin's possession and then find Marco, the world will be within our grasp!"
...
Marineford!
Satan Saint tried his best to rush and stop Whitebeard, but the time it took for him to speak was too short, and he couldn't make it in time.
However, the only thing that made him relieved was that Whitebeard hadn't revealed anything about the true history yet.
Otherwise, he would definitely have to eliminate everyone present today to seal off the information.
But even so, he was still rushing towards Whitebeard, intending to eliminate Whitebeard first to prevent him from revealing more unfavorable information.
However, halfway through his rush, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he stopped.
He muttered to himself.
"Imu-sama?!"
...
Holy Land Mariejois!
The other Gorosei were waiting for good news from Satan Saint when their bodies suddenly trembled simultaneously.
"Imu-sama is summoning us!"
Immediately, everyone quickly rushed to attend.
They quickly arrived in a vast, empty room, kneeling before the person seated on a throne at the very top.
"Imu-sama!"
The four of them knelt and paid their respects in unison.
On the throne, Imu was shrouded in darkness, revealing only a pair of bright, rippling eyes, and spoke in a deep voice.
"I have a bad premonition!"
"You all go and join the battle!"
"You must extinguish this lamp in history!"
