The Execution Live Broadcast Begins

As the time was reaching noon.

In the capitals of countries around the world, the Sabaody Archipelago, or other important islands, the official broadcast of Marineford began to appear on their live screens through the Proko den den mushis.

As Sengoku appeared in front of the camera of the cameko den den mushi, the world broadcast of the public execution of Fire Fist Ace, the commander of the Whitebeard Pirates' second division, officially began.

Although Big News Morgans had already reported the news that Fire Fist Ace was the son of the Pirate King Roger, Sengoku confirmed the news again in front of the people of the world.

"Fire Fist Ace, in addition to being the commander of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, his other identity is indeed the son of the Pirate King Gold Roger!"

"For the sake of world peace, we Marines will completely eliminate his evil bloodline today!!"

Sengoku made an impassioned speech in front of the live broadcast, angrily denounced and intimidated the pirates, promoted the Marines' ideals, and gave civilians peace of mind.

Countless civilians were excited watching the live broadcast, because in their hearts the Marines were the good side.

Roger, the criminal who started the era of great pirates, ruined many families, and his descendants must be eliminated.

The common people who resent Roger can drown this so-called Pirate King with just their spit.

These pirates, who are not interested in production but only know how to plunder, only care about their own wellbeing and talk about freedom and dreams. This is simply disgusting.

This is basically bullying the weak for the sake of one's own ambition and enjoyment.

Almost all civilians hate pirates.

Following Sengoku's order, Ace was pressed onto the execution platform by two executioners.

Seeing the desperate Ace appear on the screen, the civilians watching the live broadcast were immediately excited. Some people were clenching their fists, and some pirates showed wanton smiles.

Originally, Fire Fist Ace's execution time was at three o'clock in the afternoon, but Sengoku had already started the live broadcast at twelve o'clock at noon, and tried Ace for his crimes in front of the world.

While promoting Marine's great achievements and letting the light of justice shine on the world, he also introduced their combat power this time. Another purpose was to wait for the arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates.

There are so many troops deployed in Marineford just to wait for the Whitebeard Pirates to fall into the trap.

And according to intelligence, the Whitebeard Pirates and more than forty affiliated pirate groups under their command have indeed disappeared.

With the wisdom of Sengoku and Tsuru and their understanding of Whitebeard, they knew that he would definitely not give up on Ace.

This War must begin.

On the lower platform of the execution platform, an old man with short white hair clenched his fists and looked at Ace in pain.

Elsewhere, the three Marine Admirals each had a chair. Kizaru and Akainu sat on the chairs with their legs crossed, while Aokiji seemed out of place with the other two Marine Admirals, and his face was very casual.

The 3 Admirals first time appearing together in such a public setting was a bit inconsistent.

However, the live footage only briefly stayed on them when Sengoku introduced the Admirals.

When Sengoku introduced the Shichibukai, the focus of the civilian debate was more intense than that of the Marine Admirals. In addition to fear and resentment, there was also scolding and contempt for the Marines and the World Government for giving these pirates the right to plunder legally.

Sengoku spent almost an hour just judging Ace and introducing the combat power of the Marines, but the Whitebeard Pirates hadn't even appeared yet.

This made him a little anxious. Why haven't the Whitebeard Pirates' shown up yet?

Could it be that Whitebeard really gave up on Fire Fist Ace temporarily and didn't dare to come to Marineford?

This is not good!

For this war, he has spent a lot of energy, manpower and material resources in recruiting so many elites from various branches around the world. The amount of money spent on food, drinks, rooms, plus special supplies was astounding.

The 100 billion beris requested from the World Government for this war has almost been completely spent.

If the Whitebeard Pirates didn't come, Sengoku's encirclement and suppression plan would have been equivalent to spending an extra 100 billion beris just to publicly execute a single Fire Fist Ace.

That much money is more than the bounties of the four Yonkō pirate groups combined.

There is no other way, as the daily food and drink for these 100,000 Marine elites at all levels and Shichibukai is an astronomical sum.

Every strong man is a big eater, and just providing food alone is already a huge burden.

Sengoku also left a part of the money as a sacrifice pension. After all, many marines will definitely die in this war.

Maybe the 100 billion beris will not be enough after the fact, and they will have to continue to apply for pensions and Marineford's reconstruction costs.

The premise of the World Government being so generous is to kill Edward Newgate.

While Sengoku was still giving an eloquent live broadcast speech, Basire had already joined his crew inside the large underwater prison Impel Down.

The prisoners on the fifth floor of Freezing Hell have almost been completely frees, just to become prisoners of the Big Daddy Pirates now, imprisoned inside the castle fruit user Noko.

"Captain, Van Augur and Nami are sailing the Groseade and have almost arrived at Impel Down."

Lafitte said with a smile, because this time they would completely empty Impel Down, and Noko simply could not hold so many prisoners inside his castle fruit.

But with the arrival of the island ship, all these problems will be solved.

"Then just keep going."

Basire smiled softly, not wanting to waste this time, he led all his men directly to the fourth floor of Blazing Hell, which was also the office of the Impel Down officials.

The people who were seriously injured before were briefly treated by Impel Down's prison doctor and recovered a little from their injuries.

Because the monitors and communication den den mushis in the fourth-floor office have been destroyed by Shiryu, they still don't know whether their Chief Warden Magellan has already killed Shiryu and the Big Daddy Pirates.

While Magellan was fighting the intruders, they immediately took the elevator, returned to the first floor, and sent the news of Impel Down being invaded to Naval Headquarters and the World Government.

At the same time, Domino also ordered the justice gate of Impel Down to be closed, and at the same time, all warships were temporarily kept away from Impel Down.

They will never allow any pirate prisoners to escape!

Even if some prisoners successfully escape this time, they will not be able to leave the large underwater prison located in the Calm Belt.

However, when Hannyabal, Domino, Sadi and others saw a huge island ship flying over, they were completely shocked.

This island ship is so powerful that it can actually fly in the Calm Belt!

At this moment, they knew that the myth of the underwater prison known as the inescapable prison might come to an end today.

They were frantically sending these updates to Naval Headquarters and the World Government.

However, a power grid covered the huge island ship in the sky, completely cutting off their communication with the outside world.
