Chapter 100: This Chapter is Dedicated to Kikyo's Loneliness and All Friends Who Tipped!
"You really sent this old man a fine 'Sandbag'!"
Garp stood on the Sea Surface using Moonwalk, looking at the surging Super Tsunami with a grin, revealing two rows of neat white teeth as he laughed.
Looking from his distance and angle, the Height of several hundred meters truly gave a sense of reaching the heavens and piercing the earth. He looked like a tiny Ant standing before such a Natural Disaster.
But there was no fear or retreat on his face; instead, it was filled with Excitement and eagerness.
"Hiss----"
Garp took a deep breath, and Strength began to gather within his body. His entire being erupted with an incredibly fierce and masculine Overbearing Aura. With a slight movement, his tendons and bones roared, and his Limbs and large spine were drawn taut like a fully pulled bow.
"Hah!"
With a loud shout, the terrifying man began to exert force with his arms. Veins bulged, and muscles knotted as if about to explode.
The Dark Sheen on his arms condensed onto his right fist at a speed visible to the naked eye. Perhaps due to the excessive concentration and compression of Haki, streaks of Dark Red Lightning began to appear, and the surrounding light and shadow seemed to distort.
"Fist Bone: Iron Fist!!!"
The massive black and red fist tore through a large section of the air in front of him, emitting an extremely violent and terrifying explosion. He punched directly into the Super Tsunami surging towards him.
[Boom!!!!!!!!]
It was impossible to describe the sound. Thunder? A volcanic eruption? Or just a muffled thud? Ears seemed to stop working at that moment.
But everyone present—the Pirates, the Marines, and even the People of the World in the World Nations, Various Islands, and Various Places—saw it clearly with their eyes.
In an instant, truly just an instant, the huge Sea Waves in front of Garp's tiny figure were gone, vanished, evaporated into thin air.
Yet, visually, it seemed as though some residual Screen Feed of the Tsunami being slowly torn apart by the Fist Wind remained, and yet it also seemed not to.
However, at this moment, everyone's attention was no longer on the Tsunami but on the surging Fist Wind Garp had unleashed.
After the Fist Wind dispersed the Super Tsunami, its remaining power still split the Sea Surface ahead into two, continuing to carry the Dark Red Lightning and pressing towards the Pirate Ship resembling a Whale in the distance with overwhelming force.
"It's the Whitebeard Pirates! That's the Moby Dick!"
The Newspaper Reporter's nerves were already somewhat numb; everything he had seen today was simply too astonishing.
Looking at the majestic man who appeared on the screen, holding a Naginata and standing atop the 'Whale Head', he murmured to himself, "He came too?"
In fact, ever since Rocks, the Pirate considered the strongest by most people was not Golden Lion Shiki, nor Pirate King Roger, and certainly not Big Mom Charlotte Linlin.
It was this man, six meters and sixty-six centimeters tall, with a pair of white crescent mustaches and a head of golden curly hair, who possessed the Tremor-Tremor Fruit Ability, known as the Strongest Paramecia Type.
The Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Edward Newgate!
"Gurahaha, your fist is as hard as ever, you bastard!"
Edward Newgate faced the surging Fist Wind heading straight for him with a hearty laugh, simultaneously raising Murakumogiri, one of the Supreme Grade Swords, in his hand.
As he activated the power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit, a Milky White Halo appeared on Murakumogiri's Crescent Blade. This was the phenomenon of vibrating to the extreme.
At the same time, Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki were also attached, and streaks of Purple-Red Lightning began to burst forth.
Clearly, facing Garp's 'Iron Fist', even 'Whitebeard' had to take it seriously!
"Pops..."
The next moment, under the stunned gaze of Marco and the others behind him, and the People of the World, Murakumogiri slashed out like Lightning.
The tremor power and dense Haki on it collided with the surging Fist Wind less than twenty meters from the Moby Dick. Immediately, a vast Dark Deep Hole appeared on the Sea Surface between them.
The Fist Wind and the Tremor wrestled against each other. Red-black Lightning and Purple-Red Lightning fiercely intertwined, and the surging Air Current almost solidified into a wall, constantly pushing back the incoming Seawater.
A moment later, the Fist Wind, with only residual power left, was directly dispersed by the tremor power.
Meanwhile, at the High Altitude of seven thousand meters, unseen by everyone, the White Sea was churning like boiling water. Countless Creatures within it exploded like balloons.
Far away on the Red Line, Im in the Holy Land Mariejois looked at this scene on the Projection Screen and felt a surge of emotion.
In his Previous Life, some people thought that as long as they could control Seawater or stir up large waves, they could thrive in this World, counter this Ability User, instantly kill that character, and so on.
But in reality?
In the Original World Line, 'two years ago', Luffy and Zoro could already work together to blast open a 'Tunnel' over a hundred meters long in the Super Tsunami known as 'Aqua Laguna', allowing a Sea Train with over twenty carriages to pass through smoothly without getting a single drop of water on it.
With such terrifying Strength, what use are Waterfalls or water waves? Aren't they all just blasted apart into Water Spray with one hit, maybe creating a Rainbow in the process?
Some also said that if it weren't for Aokiji's Ice-Ice Fruit Ability at the Summit War, the two Tsunamis raised by 'Whitebeard' would have been enough to wipe out all the Marines, including Akainu and Kizaru.
Thinking about it now, how ridiculous.
Something like a Tsunami several hundred meters high is just something used to build atmosphere and decorate the scene for the Experts of this World.
As for Waterfalls, large waves, and water walls, any Pirate with a Bounty of nearly ten million is enough to easily blast them apart. For example, Butchie of the Black Cat Pirates in the future East Blue could stomp and shatter a Rock Formation of several hundred square meters.
It's true that an Ability User feels a Feeling of Powerlessness if more than half of their body is submerged in water, but the premise is that the water can actually touch the person. If a person's every punch and kick possesses immense Power, capable of generating surging Wind Pressure, or if their Ability is sufficient to counter it, or if their Speed is enough to evade, then what use is water?
Ninety percent of this World is Seawater. Whether Pirates or Marines, they basically spend their entire lives living and engaging in Combat on the Great Sea.
Coupled with the Great Sea's various Extreme Weather, when it comes to experience in dealing with large Sea Waves, few people in any World can compare to them.
It can be said that playing with water in front of the Experts of this World is like showing off one's slight skill before an expert, inviting humiliation.
"Gurahaha!"
'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate looked at Garp, who was standing on air and flying in the distant High Altitude, and laughed loudly, "Garp, this old man is here to confirm something. As long as you answer, I won't interfere anymore!"
"You'll believe whatever I answer?"
"Believe it!"
"Humph, but I have no obligation to answer a Pirate." Garp replied dismissively, showing no respect to the Yonko before him. He tilted his Neck back and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, no matter what you ask, I only have one way to answer, and that's with my fist!"
Hearing this, the Crewmates of the Whitebeard Pirates all showed anger. They felt that this bastard Garp showed no respect for their Pops.
"Is that so? So it was fake after all..."
Edward Newgate suddenly said something that made Garp's face change drastically. The latter quickly turned his head to look at Sengoku behind him, frantically signaling with his Gaze that he really hadn't said anything!
"This idiot!"
Sengoku, who was staring at BIG MOM and had recovered from his Great Buddha Form, sighed helplessly, covering his head with his Palm when he saw this. He had been tricked.
Fortunately, the distance was quite far, so there was no need to worry about 'Whitebeard's' voice being transmitted through the Propaganda Department's Visual Den Den Mushi.
"Worororo, how can such a grand scene be without me!"
Just then, a Mythical Blue-Scaled Divine Dragon descended from High Altitude. He laughed wildly with a strong Alcohol Scent, diving towards the two Large Cargo Ships at the very center.
"BIG MOM! Whitebeard! This ONE PIECE, I, Kaido, will take it!!"
