One Piece: Alucard the Immortal

Rumble!

Watching the continuous waves crash, the Whitebeard Pirates, having already retreated from the Lubloom Sea, could still see repeated tsunamis emanating from the distance.

Helplessly, they had no choice but to fall back further and further.

The battle continued, and their current position was already more than twenty nautical miles beyond the small island where Alucard and Whitebeard were clashing. But even so, the tsunamis generated by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit showed no signs of subsiding, proving one thing: the battle was far from over; Whitebeard was still fighting.

"Will Pops be alright?" Vista walked to the ship's railing. He was absolutely loyal to Whitebeard, yet even he couldn't help but feel a pang of worry. Even when Kaido fought Whitebeard, he hadn't felt this anxious.

If Alucard truly was on the same level as Kaido, as the world believed, then Vista and the others wouldn't be so concerned. But for some reason, the unprecedented sense of danger they felt from Alucard made them undeniably worried.

This battle was extremely perilous.

On a small island in the Lubloom Sea, in stark contrast to Whitebeard's earth-shattering attacks, Alucard's bullets, sword, or even his Casull and Hidden Shadow blood pool abilities seemed to lack much in terms of raw power.

To describe it, if Whitebeard could take out a thousand people with one move, Alucard was more about dealing with opponents one by one. But in this one-on-one duel, it didn't matter if you could kill a thousand or ten thousand people with one move; the outcome was still the same.

Thwack!

Whitebeard's left hand slammed into the air. Fractured air ripples reached Alucard's face. Under intense pain, blood erupted from Alucard's head, but in the next second, his signature maniacal grin appeared. Whitebeard looked up to see a dark pistol aimed at his forehead.

'Even after hitting his head, that kid's still completely fine.' Whitebeard was starting to understand why he had that title.

Bang!

The muzzle smoked as a bullet shot out.

Whitebeard twisted his other hand, slamming it back to send the bullet right back into Alucard's forehead.

In less than five seconds, Alucard was headshotted twice. But to him, it was as if nothing had happened. He raised his other hand, and Casull fired, hitting Whitebeard's exposed abdomen.

Even with Observation Haki guarding him, under the torrential bullet assault, blood flowed like a river. Whitebeard clutched his abdomen. Although it was only a superficial wound, the pain was still present.

"Damned brat."

Even in this situation, Whitebeard could still smile; otherwise, he wouldn't deserve a title and treatment on par with Roger.

He'd witnessed unique abilities. Even for himself, a hole in the brain would definitely be fatal, but this kid... his brain had been shattered by Whitebeard's ability once, and then he'd been headshotted by his own bullet. In such circumstances, he was still full of vigor.

If it were any other pirate, most would have surely lost their will to fight.

'But this is a battle! No matter how many times you revive, I'll blast you that many times!'

Soon, the small island began to mournfully tremble again. The clouds in the sky seemed to be on the verge of being torn down.

Alucard felt his body gradually grow numb, becoming increasingly accustomed to Whitebeard's attacks.

At first, he needed a slight recovery period after being killed, but now that feeling was completely gone. After losing one life, he immediately switched to the next.

Having gained over twenty thousand lives in the war on the Rulusas Continent, Alucard feared no one in a one-on-one fight in this world.

The battle had just begun!

Two days later, Kong sat with his hands clasped on his desk. Across from him, a military officer stood reporting: "Report, sir. Intelligence indicates that the battle between Alucard and Whitebeard is still ongoing. More and more Whitebeard Pirates are gathering in the Lubloom Sea, presumably contacted by Whitebeard Pirates' division commanders."

"Doesn't that put Alucard at a significant disadvantage, being a lone wolf?" said a Marine Vice Admiral standing on the other side of the office, dressed in a dark blue suit and wearing a hat. "He's in a desperate situation, not only fighting Whitebeard, but also surrounded by Whitebeard's men."

"Not necessarily," someone immediately offered a dissenting opinion. "Redfield and Shiki's battle wasn't that long ago. Didn't Redfield escape from Shiki's fleet? And Shiki's fleet's combat power is even greater than Whitebeard's."

"You can't say that; Alucard can't be compared to Redfield yet," the previous speaker retorted.

Another person offered no opinion on this, looking at Kong and asking, "Fleet Admiral Kong, we Marines cannot simply stand by and do nothing about this."

Knock, knock~

Before Kong could answer, another knock came at the door. Kong responded, indicating for them to enter. Entering was a Marine Lieutenant Commander, who, judging by his uniform, was from the intelligence transmission department.

"Fleet Admiral, new intelligence regarding the Roger Pirates. The World Government is demanding that all other matters be put aside, and full effort be made to search for the Roger Pirates."

"What?!" Everyone in the room was shocked. Even Kong, as the Fleet Admiral, hadn't expected such an order. What game was the World Government playing now?
