"Now we have some trouble."
Seeing Jack arrive, Christmas couldn't help but say.
"What should we do?"
Nami asked from the side, "Two Admirals, a Vice Admiral, and Jack with his crew—aren't they too strong? Plus, Mr. Xia isn't here, and Law is seriously injured."
"I'll handle Aokiji; my abilities counter his," Ace said quickly.
"I'll take on Kizaru. It's hard for anyone else to deal with him," Sabo said, staring at Kizaru in the distance.
If Kizaru attacked from afar, only Sabo could absorb his attacks.
"What about Peach Rabbit and Jack?" Christmas asked.
"With seawater around, Jack is a Devil Fruit user, so maybe..." Nami began.
"That's impossible."
Ace replied, "If I fight Aokiji, I won't be able to pay attention to the surrounding sea. I might even need Aokiji's ability to freeze the surface of the sea so Sabo can fight Kizaru."
"If needed, we can help," Marcel and Zoro stepped forward.
"And me."
Luffy pointed at Jack in the distance. "I haven't fought in a long time; leave that big guy to me."
"You guys are still lacking if you want to take him on," Ace shook his head.
Right now, Luffy, Zoro, and the others hadn't undergone two years of training; they had arrived in the New World without any challenges and had become like toys.
They had not fought in the first half of the Grand Line, had not battled in Drum Kingdom, had not faced Crocodile, had not engaged with the P9 in Water Seven, had not traveled to Sky Island, nor had they fought against Moria.
As a result, their strength was even weaker than that depicted in the original work at Sabaody Archipelago. They did not have much of a reputation among the Supernovas and had not ventured far upon reaching the New World.
They were no match for them.
“Luffy, leave this battle to us,” Sabo said directly.
“If the captain were here, he could handle Jack,” Christmas added from the side.
“But he hasn’t arrived yet.”
Ace furrowed his brow and said, “We must hold Jack back.”
“I can fight Jack,” Heckler stated. “I still have hidden abilities; if it’s about strength…”
Though he said this, he felt no confidence at all.
Drought Jack, one of the Disasters and a top officer of the Beast Pirates, was incredibly strong, and he did not have faith in defeating him.
“We can only do this for now.”
Sabo nodded and then Hachi stepped forward. “I’ll take on Peach Rabbit if it’s a Vice Admiral.”
Hachi could hold his own against Diamante, one of Doflamingo's top officers, so he was confident he wouldn’t lose to a Vice Admiral.
“Master is no ordinary Vice Admiral.”
Vivi said from the side, "Master is a candidate for the general, just one step away from becoming a general. He is proficient in Observation Haki and Armament Haki, skilled in swordsmanship, and most importantly, he can see events that will happen in the future."
"I see," Sabo replied. "No wonder he was able to dodge our attacks back then."
"In that case..." Ace frowned, estimating that Peach Rabbit's strength would not be much lower than Doflamingo's.
"I'll help Eight," Vivi said. "She is my master; I can hold them off with Eight for a bit."
"Let's do it this way for now," Ace said. "The rest of you follow Heckler to fend off Jack's subordinates. Hold your ground; as long as the president arrives, we have a chance to win. But we need to wait before they attack."
"I didn't expect Jack to show up, but their target is also Baroque Works," Kizaru remarked. "Should we take action?"
"Of course we should," Peach Rabbit drew her long knife. "This is a great opportunity to completely dismantle Baroque Works."
"And now that the giant beast is absent, they are missing a significant ally," Kizaru added. "At the beast's speed, it will probably take four or five minutes to arrive."
"I understand."
Aokiji's body radiated an endless chill, spreading deeper into the ocean, freezing thicker layers of ice that extended all the way to the distant Sea Vessel.
However, this time Ace did not intervene; he allowed Aokiji to freeze the Sea Vessel.
Ace, Sabo, Vivi, and eight others jumped off the Sea Vessel, facing Aokiji, Kizaru, and Peach Rabbit.
On the other side, Heckler, Christmas, Zoro, Luffy, Marcel, Sanji, Brook, along with members of Baroque Works, Feng Kelei, the bandaged Kera, Nico Robin, and the struggling Elken prepared to confront Jack's Pirate Crew.
"Let the battle begin. Kill them."
Jack shouted loudly, waving his hand as his pirates charged forward.
"Engage!"
Heckler's companions rushed in to fight against Jack's subordinates while Heckler remained standing there.
"Captain Jack, should we wait for the Admirals to make their move first?" a young man beside Jack asked anxiously.
"No need. Just take them out directly," Jack replied loudly as he charged toward Heckler.
"Jack is on the move," Peach Rabbit said. "Let's get to work."
Peach Rabbit drew her long knife and charged out, while Aokiji and Kizaru prepared themselves.
Jack rushed toward them, but it was not Heckler who launched the first attack; it was Luffy.
"Rubber Rocket Launcher!"
Luffy stretched his arms back and aimed at Jack.
"Oh?"
Jack saw the attack coming and did not move, allowing it to hit him.
Bang.
Jack remained unmoved and shook his head. "So weak."
"Come again."
Luffy, undeterred, flexed his fists, ready to continue his assault.
"Annoying."
Jack, slightly impatient, stomped his feet and surged forward, instantly appearing beside Luffy, delivering a powerful punch downward.
"That was fast."
Luffy didn't have time to react before Jack's fist struck him on the head.
Whoosh.
Under the immense force, Luffy's head flew off, his neck stretching without sustaining significant injury.
"Can his ability absorb the impact by extending?"
Jack observed this scene and said, "Then I'll just use Haki."
With that, Jack raised his fist, ready to strike down.
But in that instant, a figure appeared behind Jack, fists thrusting forward.
Boom.
Heckler's fists struck Jack's back, producing a loud thud.
Meanwhile, Luffy bit onto the ship's railing from a distance and swiftly flew over, landing slowly on the deck. He chuckled, "Hehe, I'm here to draw attention so he can attack you."
With his hands covered in Armament Haki, Iron Fist struck Jack's back.
Just when Luffy and Heckler thought their plan had worked, Jack suddenly hissed and moved his body slightly. "That hurts a bit."
Heckler behind him was taken aback. "A bit of pain? Just a bit? The opponent didn't even use Armament Haki; he just took a hit and only felt pain."
In the next moment, Jack had already turned around and swung a punch.
Despite Jack's massive size, he had an incredibly fast striking speed as his fist came crashing down.
"That's fast."
Seeing this, Heckler instantly dodged, narrowly avoiding the giant fist that grazed past him.
Just as Heckler thought he had dodged, his arm curled up and struck in his direction.
"Not good."
Heckler immediately raised both hands in front of him, channeling Armament Haki into his arms in an attempt to block the incoming blow.
Boom.
Heckler felt a tremendous force hit him, sending his body flying. He steadied himself and landed on the ground some distance away.
"Such power."
It was just a sudden change in tactics; with a mere elbow sweep, the force was greater than his Iron Fist. Even with Armament Haki activated, he still felt pain.
However, just as Heckler regained his footing, Jack appeared right in front of him, delivering a powerful punch.
So fast.
Jack didn't rely on leg movement; instead, he bent his legs and unleashed a tremendous force that propelled him forward.
His strength was immense. The power generated from his legs alone was ten times greater than Heckler's own stomp. Despite his massive weight, this speed was still faster than Heckler's Change Gear Slash.
There was no way to evade his Change Gear Slash.
Faced with this punch, Heckler took a deep breath and suddenly vanished from sight.
Whoosh.
Jack's punch missed entirely, the wind from it creating a splash as the ice layer immediately collapsed, forming a massive pit. However, looking down from above revealed that beneath it lay thick ice, at least thirty meters deep.
"Did you dodge it?" Jack asked, somewhat surprised.
Heckler's body appeared in the distance, barely managing to evade Jack's attack using Super Dash.
After nearly three years of ability development, his power had transformed from a weight range of one kilogram to ten thousand kilograms, now shifting to a range of zero point one kilogram to one hundred thousand kilograms.
When he utilized zero point one kilogram for the Dash, his speed could double, which was known as Super Dash.
However, the force exerted by his legs continued to be greater; even with training, the load remained considerable.
"But I can only use it once."
Heckler clenched his fists, knowing he had to restrain Jack and wait for the president to arrive.
