Just as Whitebeard's power wrecked the battlefield, the System's voice rang in Coby's mind, pulling his attention away.

[Skill Scan initiated on 'Gura Gura no Mi (Whitebeard's Devil Fruit)'. Analysis in progress… The Gura Gura no Mi (Tremor-Tremor Fruit) is regarded as one of the most powerful Paramecia-type Devil Fruits, granting the user the ability to create massive vibrations, effectively generating quakes. These tremors can be used to produce devastating earthquakes, tsunamis, and even air quakes that can tear apart the environment, shatter structures, and cause widespread destruction. The power of this fruit is immense, capable of destabilizing entire islands and even splitting the seas, making it one of the most feared abilities in the world. Estimated cost for acquisition: 575,000 SP. Please confirm if you wish to proceed with the Skill Scan and acquisition.]

Coby almost swallowed his tongue. "Holy Motherfucker!" he whispered, eyes wide as he stared at the notification. 575,000 SP? It was a ridiculous amount, but the power it offered... His mind raced as he considered it. Sure, it would take a while to gather that kind of SP, but having that kind of destructive force at his disposal? It was tempting as hell.

But there wasn't time to dwell on it. Below him, the Whitebeard Pirates were rallying, fired up by their captain's words. The Marines were scrambling, trying to reorganize after Whitebeard's devastating attack. Sengoku, standing on the execution platform next to Ace, was barking orders to the Admirals.

"All forces, stop them at all costs!" Sengoku's voice boomed, carrying over the battlefield. He glared down at the pirates advancing toward the scaffold. "Do not let them reach the execution platform!"

With Whitebeard descending onto the battlefield, the chaos escalated to an unimaginable level. His every move sent shockwaves through the island, making the sea surge, the ground shift, and the very air tremble as if an enraged god had descended upon Marineford to punish it. His first attack was devastating, smashing through a giant Marine with ease, sending the unfortunate man crashing into the distance like a broken toy.

But before the pirates could rally behind him, Akainu unleashed his next move. "Ryusei Kazan!" he roared, his fists erupting in molten fury as he sent a barrage of magma fists raining down from the sky. The lava storm descended fast, burning everything in its path. The ice beneath Coby and Luffy instantly began to melt, steam rising in thick clouds as the searing heat tore through the battlefield. Whitebeard's ship, the Moby Dick, which had served him for years, was quickly consumed by flames, its wooden hull crackling and splintering under the intense heat.

Coby acted fast. He grabbed Luffy by the collar and darted upward with Geppo, just barely avoiding the molten fists as they crashed down, leaving a trail of destruction. The entire area around them was turning into a sea of lava, forcing everyone to scatter.

Whitebeard's eyes lingered on his burning ship for a moment, his face stoic. "There's no ship that can carry me in the New World!" he declared loudly, his voice booming across the battlefield. His tone was clear—he had no intention of leaving Marineford alive. This was his final stand.

As if in response to his words, the battlefield shifted again. Massive walls began to rise from the platform, cutting off the pirates to forward, boxing them in on the rapidly melting ice. The sea boiled under the intense heat of Akainu's attack, turning the once frozen battlefield into a dangerous wasteland.

Behind the pirates, an even greater threat loomed—an army of Pacifista advanced, their cold mechanical eyes locking onto the pirate forces. The Marines were closing in, tightening the noose around Whitebeard's forces, while the pirates found themselves trapped between molten death and a wall of mechanical soldiers.

Coby glanced at the towering walls. "We need to move," he muttered, his eyes darting around the battlefield. Without wasting a second, he grabbed Luffy once again and used Geppo to leap over the massive wall, landing on the other side with a solid thud.

They landed just in front of the three Admirals—Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru—all standing ready, their eyes cold and focused on the newcomers.

Akainu's eyes immediately locked onto Luffy. "Straw Hat… You arrived to accept your punishment?" he growled, the ground beneath him bubbling as his magma powers radiated intense heat. The tension in the air was suffocating, with all three Admirals now standing directly in their path.

Coby, never one to miss a beat, grinned at the sight. "Well, looks like we've got a party now."

Kizaru glared at Coby, his usually calm demeanor showing an unusual level of agitation. Coby smirked, enjoying the Admiral's reaction. To think Kizaru could be this worked up. Meanwhile, Luffy had found the mast of a ship—where he got it, no one knew—and hurled it toward the three Admirals. 

Aokiji moved first, freezing the mast midair with a quick gesture, turning it into a solid block of ice. But Luffy was already one step ahead, launching a powerful "Gomu Gomu no Stamp Gatling." His feet shot forward in rapid succession, shattering the frozen mast into countless pieces. The icy shards flew toward the Admirals like missiles.

Akainu sneered as the fragments came his way, his magma body flaring up in response. The molten ice evaporated on contact, creating a thick steam curtain that billowed up between the fighters. Luffy used the distraction to activate Gear Second, his body steaming as his blood flowed faster, giving him a burst of speed.

Without wasting a second, Luffy shot toward the Admirals, ready to bypass them. But Kizaru moved faster. "Too slow," Kizaru said lazily, disappearing in a flash of light and reappearing just above Luffy. His leg swung down like a glowing whip, smashing into Luffy. The impact sent Luffy crashing into the ground, skidding across the ice, a grunt of pain escaping his lips.

Sengoku's eyes narrowed as he watched from the execution platform. With a swift motion, he gave the order. "Do it."

Two executioners raised their spears, ready to execute Ace. Coby, already aiming to take a shot. Before he could act, a sharp slash of sand cut through the air, slicing through the men and sending them flying. Crocodile appeared, his sand swirling as he stepped forward.

Marco was close to the platform, preparing to save Ace, but before he could act, Crocodile stepped in. His sand swirled around him, cutting down the two executioners just as they were about to strike.

Sengoku glared at Crocodile from the platform. "I thought you would be an asset to us, considering your hatred for Whitebeard."

Crocodile smirked, his voice cool and dismissive. "I'll deal with that old fool later, but I can't stand those smug looks on your faces."

Doflamingo, ever eager for chaos, wasted no time and lunged at Crocodile with a crazed grin. His razor-sharp strings sliced through Crocodile's body, decapitating him. But Crocodile's sand form reassembled itself almost instantly, reforming his body without a scratch. The two clashed with fierce intensity, their attacks sending shockwaves through the battlefield.

As the battle raged between Doflamingo and Crocodile, Aokiji suddenly appeared out of the chaos, ice spikes forming in his hands. He moved with blinding speed, stabbing one of the ice spikes into Luffy's shoulder, freezing the area instantly.

Before Aokiji could land another blow, Marco swooped in, his arms transforming into his phoenix wings. His fiery clawed kick crashed into Aokiji, knocking him back and causing the ice Admiral to skid across the ground. The blue flames from Marco's body melted the ice around Luffy's wound, preventing further damage.

Meanwhile, Whitebeard's hidden ship, which had been coated and submerged under the sea, surfaced near the plaza. Oars Jr., battered but still standing, lifted the massive ship and carried it into the heart of the battlefield. With a mighty roar, the Whitebeard Pirates were back in full force, rallying around their captain as they charged toward the execution platform.

The sight of Oars Jr. carrying the ship into the battle sent a surge of energy through the pirate forces. The Marines, momentarily caught off guard by the sudden reinforcement, scrambled to reposition and defend against the advancing pirates.

Back on the platform, Sengoku clenched his fists, his patience wearing thin. "All forces, stop them! Do not let them get any closer!"

Admirals descended to battle. As Aokiji froze Whitebeard, the latter swung his massive naginata, shattering the ice with a single tremor punch. The vibrations rippled through the air, cracking the ice around him. Whitebeard followed up with a haki-infused stab aimed directly at Aokiji, but the Admiral's body dissolved into ice, dodging the strike even with haki. His form reassembled around Whitebeard's weapon, cold mist swirling around him.

Jozu, seeing the opportunity, dashed toward Aokiji. His body gleamed as he transformed into diamond, his shoulder posed for a heavy blow. Aokiji turned, ready to retaliate, but Jozu's diamond form collided with the Admiral, sending him skidding across the ice. The force shook the battlefield, and the ground cracked beneath their feet.

Meanwhile, Vice-Admirals began taking more active roles in the battle. Two of them charged Luffy, their figures blurring with "Soru" as they closed the distance. One aimed a Shigan straight at Luffy's chest, the deadly finger strike coming in fast.

But before the attack could connect, Coby flashed into action. With a smirk, he unleashed his new move: "Glinting Shigan." It was a hybrid technique, combining Shigan with Kizaru's finger laser, and it pierced through the air with a bright, searing flash. The Vice-Admiral raised his haki-coated arm to defend, but the attack was too strong. He was sent flying, blood spurting from his mouth as he crashed into the ground, skidding to a stop several meters away.
