Chapter's Events:

—————————

"Hey, Coby!! What's the matter!!?" Seeing Coby in pain, clutching his head, Helemeppo felt worried.

"Haa... haa... I don't know..!!! It's sad...!!!"

"SAD!?"

"Oehh!!!"

"Inside my head... the voices... are disappearing, one by one...!!!" Coby appeared to be suffering at that moment.

"Huh?"

A Marine soldier, after being shot by a pirate, fell but was caught by another soldier before hitting the ground.

"Hang in there!! You'll live if you get treated!!"

Then another higher-ranking soldier came, shouting:

"Leave him!! We're in the middle of a battle!!!"

...

Tashigi watched this scene silently.

"GO AFTER THE PIRATES!!!"

"CRUSH EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!"

One of the extremist Vice Admirals ordered.

...

(They still want to fight!!! The Marines have achieved their objective, but they're fighting even harder now!!!) Seeing this left Tashigi feeling helpless.

("Justice"... "Evil"... What's the difference here?!!) Smoker was equally helpless.

(They've won... But they thirst for more!!!)

"I won't forgive the evils of piracy!!!" Akainu was enraged while fighting the Whitebeard Pirates.

Meanwhile, Blackbeard was even more frenzied:

"Nobody can stop me now!!! I'll destroy everything!!! Engulf everything!!!"

Not far away, Buggy was still flying, carrying Luffy and Jimbei, but at that moment, he was hit by a warning laser.

"Hmm?"

The color drained from Buggy's face upon seeing the explosion on the horizon caused by the attack that missed him.

"Why don't you just drop Strawhat Luffy!!?" said Kizaru.

"It's Kizaru!!" Trafalgar Law was surprised.

"All right!! Take him! Whoever you are!!? Best of luck!!!" Buggy did as Kizaru said and threw both Luffy and Jimbei onto Trafalgar Law's submarine.

"Grab him, Jean Bart!!" ordered Law.

"All right, Good!" cheered Bepo after catching Luffy.

"We're going to dive!!!"

•———•———•———•———•

At the Marine Headquarters, the fleet admiral was contemplating the manga pages with cold eyes and a regretful expression.

"This… it seems we have taken a completely wrong direction, lives are being lost in vain…"

"Who will stop this madness…?"

Tsuru's lashes trembled as she spoke with an inexplicable pang of pain in her heart.

"What a mess… as if Akainu's violent spirit has possessed everyone…" Zephyr added with regret.

"We've participated in many wars over the years, they ended at some point but never continued after achieving their objectives…" he added.

"Do you think this war is over? Seriously? The Whitebeard Pirates are still there! And the more evil Blackbeard is still there!" Sakazuki shouted in anger.

"Sakazuki… this doesn't explain our reckless use of force at this stage…"

"We are pushing lives to eliminate lives that have already surrendered…"

"So what?! Those bastards must all fall!" Sakazuki shouted and threw the book aside in agitation.

"That boy Coby… he must have awakened the sensitive Observation Haki as he feels the extinguishing of many lives at once… he must be suffering."

Tsuru felt sorry for Coby.

"I bet he will do something… something amazing…"

Zephyr's eyes shifted quickly from one scene to another, confident that something would happen.

And it did.

Whole Cake Island:

Inside the art store, Linlin's children were immersed in the excitement of the events.

"This shows us how alliances can change in the blink of an eye. This manga is full of surprises." Charlotte Perospero said cautiously, contemplating the developments.

Katakuri was reading calmly, commenting realistically: "Blackbeard and his new power... He is a real threat. We should see how this ends."

Charlotte Daifuku whispered in a low voice, "We will see how this chaos ends."

"It would be great if Mama were involved in this war… we would definitely see our counterparts there!"

Charlotte Oven was more interested in seeing his future counterpart than the events of the war.

"Mama Mama! It seems Kizaru is determined to prevent Luffy from escaping… well? Isn't this the perfect moment to appear…"

"Red-Haired? Mama Mama!"

Linlin did not expect the interconnection of events to be so precise and wonderful.

As if the future of this world was meticulously planned.

Sorbet Kingdom:

Back at the Revolutionary Headquarters, inside the art store where all the Revolutionary Army members were currently gathered, Garp was reading the chapter with a proud and relieved smile: "Luffy always finds his way to survive. Trafalgar Law, you are truly amazing."

Dragon next to him looked at the manga seriously and attentively: "Don't you think Kizaru can stop this?"

"Someone will stop Kizaru… no need to worry." Garp smiled.

Hearing that, Dragon smiled, "The world in the manga is changing fast. The war is over, and an entire era ended with it… with the dawn of a new era, new alliances will emerge that may be the key to changing the current system."

"Buwahahaha! And this old man's era has also ended… he seems so old he can't even push Blackbeard down, and he's just a kid who consumed Newgate's power." It seemed Garp was mocking his old counterpart at this moment.

"Ace's death must have affected him greatly… he no longer has the ability to do anything, although I see he could take down Teach here if he wanted to."

But then he began to explain why he believed he did nothing.

Crocodile was reading quietly: "Blackbeard, that bastard. Someone needs to stop him."

"Let the younger generation do that," Garp replied to Crocodile's words.

Ivankov was cheering enthusiastically: "How exciting! Law saves Luffy, what a hero! Oh no…!! Kizaru is close to stopping him!"

"Is that so?" Kuma, despite his silence, was watching the events carefully and thoughtfully.

"This… Coby?"

At this moment, Garp's eyes widened upon seeing what Coby did.

East Blue, Loguetown:

In Loguetown, a man with pink hair was nervously browsing the manga: "Coby is so cowardly… but he challenged his fear to stop such a monster?"

"What is he saying? Could he really have chosen to sacrifice his life to say these words?"

"What a man…"

"Stop, Akainu! Don't do that! He is a Marine soldier, you know!"

One of the villagers looked at the pages and said: "This battle will never be forgotten. The Marines are in chaos."

From one to another, readers in Loguetown were highly excited just like the rest of the readers around the world… but the next scene left the readers completely silent.

What happened after Coby's brave intervention left readers with their mouths wide open in absolute shock.

Near the coast of Loguetown, in the famous Baratie restaurant:

Zeff was reading the manga with his crew in tension: "Luffy is safe, that's good. But Blackbeard... what a threat."

Patty was preparing food but couldn't resist looking at the pages: "Won't this war end-"

Before he could finish his question, the pan fell from his hand and his jaw dropped.

"Red-Haired!?"

Central Prison on Hunters Island:

In the cell, Shiki was reading the manga and laughing loudly: "Teach, you have acquired the power you aspired for. But can you control it?"

"From what I remember, even with his distinctive hybrid blood of giants and humans, Newgate couldn't tame this power except by training for a very long time, and with each use, it strained his muscles to the point of collapse."

Moria was watching the events with excitement and worry: "This war won't end easily. There must be a balance between power and madness."

"Shut up, what do you know?"

"Argh!" Moria got kicked again.

Fish-Man Island:

In the art store, Jimbei and Fisher Tiger were following the events with endless enthusiasm.

Especially after seeing the small and cowardly human who bravely stopped Akainu.

"Now I understand why this chapter is titled, A Few Seconds of Courage."

Fisher Tiger said with a smile.
