Chapter 5: Luffy arrived!

Marco and Kizaru fight in the sky, and Marco is losing badly. His body was constantly being punched through with light bullets. If he did not have his Devil Fruit regeneration. He would already be dead.

Boom!

Marco kicked Kizaru, who blocked with his forearm. The force kicked Kizaru out and smashed it to the floor, causing a massive explosion of light. 

Pew!

Kizaru rushed out of the rubble as a beam of light and stood on the ground without any injuries. Marco clicked his tongue in annoyance and regret.

"Hey, you two ~ Attack him," Kizaru said as he turned to look at the two giants. They were massive, towering over everyone else on the island with massive swords in hand.

"Yes, admiral Kizaru!" The giants waste no time brandishing their weapons as they charge at the Whitebeard pirates. The ground rumbles and shakes under their steps.

Boom!

Juzo crushes onto the ground, and his fingers sink into the ice. With a loud groan, he pulls his arm, and an iceberg the size of a massive ship is pulled out from the ice floor.

"I don't think so! Take this!" Juzo then groans as he throws the massive iceberg at the giants. The giants step back in shock. Even with their giant blood, they wouldn't be safe from this.

"Tch! If everyone is out attackin', then who will protect the island?" Akainu's calm and cold voice came out. The temperature started rising on the island, and everyone looked back at Akinu.

Boom!

A heat wave descended on the island as a massive fist made of magma was shot towards the flying chunk of ice. Everyone watched in shock as the ice melted and the magma burst into smaller magma lumps.

Boom!

A magma ball slammed into a pirate ship and shattered into pieces from the explosion. The ice around the boat melted quickly from the heat of the magma.

Whitebeard narrows his eyes as he looks at Akainu. He could feel the heat from his ship.

"Are you trying to light the candles on a birthday cake? You magma brat!" Whitebeard said with a grin. His chuckle shook the air. Akainu stared at him coldly.

"I am just lighting your funeral," Akinu replied. The ground started trembling, and a giant rushed towards the execution platform.

"Ace!" Little Oars Junior shouted as he reached for Ace. The soldiers started panicking at his massive size. Ace opened his eyes slightly before closing them.

Ace can feel Oars Jr.'s emotions through his improved observation of haki. He senses that Oars Jr. genuinely regards him as family.

"OH? What do we have here? Someone like you in my shadow army would be great!" Gecko Moria chuckled as he appeared in a flash of darkness. Oars ignored him.

"The battle is finally beginning to get interesting~" Doflamingo chuckles with a chaotic light in his eyes, hidden by his flamingo shades. He chuckles as he watches the fight.

On the battlefield, Hancock shatters Pirates and Marines with her powers and taunts the pirates and marines with her beauty.

"By my beauty, you will accept this as my help," Boa Hancock said with a neutral face. The pirates and Marines suddenly freeze with hearts in their eyes.

"Hmph! Men, they are all the same, except my Luffy-sama!" Hancock snorted in disgust before turning into a blushing mess.

Ace suddenly senses a movement and opens his eyes to see Kuma preparing a massive attack. His hands are in the air, and the air bounces off his palms before getting smaller.

The ball of air eventually fits into the size of his palm, and Kuma is about to attack Oars Jr with it. But Ace would not have that. After Whitebeard dies, he wants to lead the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Ursus Shock-"

Boom!

A massive bolt of red lightning shot out from Ace's body as his eyes flashed red. Lightning surrounded his body, and everyone felt the atmosphere turn heavier.

"I will kill you if you lay a hand on Oars." Ace's voice was heard throughout the island. Sengoku looks at Ace in shock. He was right next to him, so he could feel the power of his Conqueror's haki.

Ace was also surprised due to the fusion of his soul and Ace's. The power of his will is not something anyone can gain, even if they spend a lifetime fighting battles and hardening their will. 

With quick mastery, Ace mastered the ability to focus his Conqueror's haki on a single target. Though it was still choppy and unpolished in its handling.

"This haki... I was right to execute you! If you were left unchecked. You would be a bigger threat than your father." Sengoku said with narrowed eyes as he looked at Ace.

Ace looks at Sengou and scowls and takes his Conqueror's haki back. Kuma unfreezes, and the air bomb in his hand vanishes. Doflamingo looked at Ace with a chuckle.

"What a powerful Haki. Guess he is the son of the pirate king." Doflamingo said as he turned back to watch the battle. Oras continued on his advance.

"Oars! Listen to me. Go and help our comrades. You can't help me get free while Sengoku is here." Oars stops walking and looks at Ace. Seeing the firm look in his eyes, Oars nods.

"Ok," Oars turns back and starts attacking the marine soldiers. Ace signs before going back to training his observation haki. Sengoku stared at him in confusion.

'Why does he keep closing his eyes?' Sengoku thought with narrowed eyes. The top of one of the frozen tsunamis. A ship with Luffy and the impel down escapees is frozen in place.

"Damn it! Let's push the ship so it slides back down the ice!" Luffy said with annoyance and desperation as he looked at Ivankov. Ivankov nodded and winked at the ice.

Boom!

The ice crumbles into pieces, and the shop turns over as they all fall from the sky. Ace looks up and sighs in relief as the one person who could free him arrives.

"Luffy..." Ace mutters with a smile. Garp looks up with shock and swears under his breath as he looks at Luffy falling from the sky.

"Garp! You and your damn family!" Sengoku says with rage as he turns to his old friend. Garp looks down with a heavy expression, and Sengoku sighs.

"Ace! I am here to save you!" Luffy shouts at the top of his lungs as a massive grin appears on Luffy's face. They fall into the ocean, and the ship breaks in half.

Jinbe acted and quickly lifted everyone who was aDevil Fruitt user from the water. Jibe looked at Ace on the execution stage and remembered their deal.

"Captain! I came to save you!" Ace smiled as he looked at Jinbe. He nodded and watched as they ran toward the execution stage.

"Jinbe! Are you trying to get your status revoked?" Sengoku questions Jinbe with narrowed eyes.

"From now forward. I am no longer a Shichibukai! I am a part of Ace's crew!" Jinbe said with determination. Sengoku ground his teeth as he looked at Ace.

"Y-you piece of shit!"
