Chapter 67: Clone Exposed — Link and Teach Appear



A hurricane-like blast of air surged out from the crack in the atmosphere once more, carrying a force that could shatter everything as it spread forward.

If this blast were allowed to spread unchecked, the terrifying earthquake would undoubtedly cause the battered island of Marineford to sink into the sea.

Thus, the three Navy Admirals did not give Whitebeard another chance. They joined forces, using an advanced application of Armament Haki to form an invisible barrier, blocking the roaring, spreading power of the tremor.

Even so, a portion of the tremor's force once again struck the crack-covered headquarters building, causing a part of it to collapse completely.

A section fell away, drawing the attention of the entire battlefield and the world.

"What... what is that?"

"So big, is it a giant?"

"Hey, hey... isn't that size a bit too exaggerated?!"

Behind the collapsed corner of the headquarters building, an enormous face appeared.

One must know that the Navy Headquarters' Justice Tower was at least two hundred meters tall.

Even Little Oars Jr., at thirty-eight meters, was nothing before this building.

But the owner of this giant face was extremely close to the height of the headquarters building, estimated to be at least one hundred and eighty meters tall.

Such a height was far beyond that of not just giants, but even Oars the Continent-Puller, who was several times larger than an ordinary giant.

"Ah? Captain, have I been discovered?"

Seeing that everyone on the battlefield had stopped and was looking his way, Sanjuan Wolf was slightly stunned. He then looked down to his right, his voice echoing across the world.

"Zehahahaha... It can't be helped. Who told you to be so enormous."

The unique laughter resounded. That familiar voice caused the members of the Whitebeard Pirates to show expressions of rage.

From below the headquarters building, several figures slowly walked out.

Leading them were Teach and Laffitte.

Beside them were the "Corrupt King" and others, dressed in prison uniforms.

Even Sanjuan Wolf behind them was wearing a prison uniform.

Clearly, these few were all prisoners.

"The Corrupt King, Avalo Pizarro, and the Heavy Drinker, Vasco Shot. Aren't those two great pirates who were arrested?"

"And that other person, that giant, who is he?!"

Many people recognized the Corrupt King and Vasco Shot, realizing they were once-infamous great pirates who had long since been imprisoned in Impel Down.

As for Sanjuan Wolf, he had long been erased from history.

Sengoku, however, recognized another prisoner who hadn't had time to change out of his uniform, and he questioned loudly, "Shiryu, why are you here? What happened at Impel Down? Where is Magellan?"

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, it's been a while."

Shiryu lit a cigar and grinned menacingly. "Since I'm here wearing this, you should understand my choice! As for Magellan, that depends on whether his luck is good or not."

Swish—

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared not far to the right of the Blackbeard Pirates.

Upon seeing this figure, the once-arrogant Shiryu and the others all showed looks of apprehension.

Teach, who had just been about to greet his old man, also had the smile on his face freeze slightly.

The Wood Clone glanced at Teach and smiled. "Teach, you're quite fast."

"Zehahahaha... It's all thanks to your help, Link."

Teach laughed, speaking in words only they understood. "You were here? I thought you had left long ago!"

"I've been here the whole time, from the beginning until now."

The Wood Clone smiled meaningfully. "But now, my mission is over."

Creak—

As the Wood Clone's words fell, a huge door of air suddenly appeared behind him.

As the door opened, a nine-tailed fox, over ten meters tall, slowly walked out.

Those with good eyesight recognized at a glance that this nine-tailed fox was not a wild beast, but a Mythical Zoan-type ability user in their full beast form.

But more than the sudden appearance of the Mythical Zoan user, everyone's attention was drawn to the figure on the nine-tailed fox's head.

"Link the Impaler?!"

"Why are there two Impalers?"

"The Clone-Clone Fruit? No, wasn't the executioner's ability just now the Clone-Clone Fruit? Could there be two Paramecia-type Clone-Clone Fruits in this world?"

"Could they be... twins?"

"..."

Many on the battlefield let out voices of disbelief.

"A clone? With that level of energy, it's just a clone?!"

"When did he switch with the clone? Or... was it just a clone from the very beginning?"

Reacting differently from the others was Doflamingo, who also possessed a clone-like ability.

At this moment, Doflamingo's heart was in turmoil, even... fearful!

No matter which possibility was true, it meant Link's strength was far from what it appeared on the surface.

After all, if a mere clone could easily take down a captain of a subordinate crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, just how ridiculously strong was the main body?

Of course, that wasn't the crucial point!

The crucial point was that he had offended Link at Mary Geoise.

The other party's words, "I hope you have the courage to speak to me like that then," was this what he meant?

Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Doflamingo's forehead.

At this time, Link also jumped down from Karīna's head and placed a hand on the Wood Clone's shoulder.

Immediately, the Wood Clone turned into branches that flowed toward Link's palm, seemingly seeping into his body, but in reality, turning into a single white seed in his palm.

At the same time, Nami and the other women also got down from Karīna's back. The latter exited her beast form, maintaining a hybrid-human form, and stood with Nami and the others to Link's left and right.

Looking at the battlefield below, Nami sighed with emotion. "What a spectacular scene. It looks like the battle was very intense."

"Did the Navy win, or did the Whitebeard Pirates win?"

"Fire Fist Ace isn't dead, but Whitebeard has a huge hole in his chest. From the looks of it, he seems to be covering the retreat. It should be a case of mutual destruction."

Nami and the other women discussed among themselves as if they were just chatting.

On one side, the ferocious Blackbeard Pirates; on the other, Link's group of handsome men and beautiful women.

These two crews were not only the most eye-catching sights on the battlefield right now but also the focus of the world.

Once their deeds are exposed, it is believed that both Link and Teach will become members of the Worst Generation, making the caliber of the Worst Generation far exceed that of the original story
