Dragon ### Summary Page 0: Chapter title page: Chapter 573, "This Era Will Be Known By Whitebeard's Name." The cover illustration shows Usopp bundled for cold weather and riding a large polar-bear-like animal through a snowy mountain area while posing nervously or praying. Snow, cliffs, and a small hut-like structure frame the scene, making it feel like a separate winter travel gag. There is no Marineford story dialogue beyond the chapter title. Page 1: Whitebeard shakes Marineford itself while his sons cry, "Boss!!!" and beg, "We can't leave you behind, boss!!! Let's go back together!!!" Whitebeard snaps back, "Didn't you hear my order!? Get going!!! You idiots!!!" Marines and pirates shout, "Stop Whitebeard!!!" as the island quakes. Voices scream "Uwaaaaahh!!!" and warn, "Marineford is in danger!!!" and "He's really trying to sink the entire island!!!" Page 2: The Marines swarm Whitebeard, shouting, "Take out Whitebeard!!!" and "He's half dead already!!!" They shoot and stab him from every side while the battlefield screams "Gyaa-aahh!!" Whitebeard remains standing in the middle of the attacks, covered in weapons and wounds. Ace and Luffy look back in horror, yelling "Ace!!" and "Boss!!!" Other pirates urge them to obey: "Hurry!! Do what the boss says!!!" Page 3: The retreat begins as pirates shout, "Get ready to depart!!! Launch the ship!!!" and call, "Squad Leader Marco!! Let's go!!" Marco stares back and says, "Boss..." Sengoku is warned, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku!!" and answers that there is no reason to worry about Ace now because Whitebeard is seriously planning on sinking Marineford into the sea and taking himself with it. Marines check on Garp, asking, "Vice Admiral Garp!! A-are you all right!?" Garp mutters, "Putting an end... to the era... Sounds like a good time to me..." Page 4: Buggy's men discover that the broadcast is live again: "Captain Buggy!! The video Denden Mushi is back up!!!" Buggy roars, "All right!!! Put it up!! Show my face," and boasts, "Just as I take Whitebeard's head!!!" The broadcast resumes with "It's on!!!" Viewers see the ruined execution platform and shout, "Completely destroyed!?" and "What happened to Whitebeard!?" Buggy appears on screen, shouting, "Why hello everyone!! It's Buggy!!! The legendary-" only to be recognized with "You again!?" Page 5: The pirates rush for the harbor while voices shout, "Get to the coast!!!" Marines answer with, "Don't let the pirates escape!!!" and "Take down as many as you can!!!" Whitebeard plants himself before the Marine forces and declares, "Your only opponent... is me!!!" The island splits and rumbles under his power as the pursuing forces are thrown into chaos. Page 6: The pirates continue the evacuation, yelling, "Squad Leader Joz!!!" and "You're still alive, right? Let's get..." Another pirate orders, "Brenhaim!! Carry Joz!!!" while wounded men cry, "Uwaah!!!" Ace notices Luffy still nearby and shouts, "Strawhat boy!!! Why are you standing around!?" Luffy calls back, "Ace!!!" One fighter yells that the old man is prepared, and Ace grimly says, "...!! I know!! I won't let it be in vain!!!" Whitebeard clears enemies with "Get the hell out of my way!!!" as Ace is forced to keep moving. Page 7: Whitebeard and Ace face each other through the smoke and noise of the retreat, with Luffy and the others already being pushed away in the background. Ace pants, "Haa... Haa..." while Whitebeard says, "I don't need your words... But let me ask you one thing... Was I... a good father?" The question cuts through the battle. Ace breaks into tears and answers without hesitation, "Of course!!!" Whitebeard laughs softly, "Gurararara..." Page 8: Jimbei shields the retreat, telling Ace and Luffy, "Run! Get to the ship!!!" and "Ace!! Luffy, get in front!!" A pirate warns, "They're gunning for you!!! The boss wants as many people to survive as possible!!" Hancock urges, "Hurry, Luffy!!!" The pirates announce, "We stole a battleship!!! Quick, get on!!!" while the broadcast audience cries, "The execution platform is being destroyed!! What happened to Ace!? Show us Whitebeard!!" Akainu watches and says, "Do they really think they can escape?! How adorable..." Page 9: Akainu erupts from the smoke and lava as Marines shout, "Look out!!! It's Akainu!!!" and pirates scream "Uwaaaah!!!" He mocks the retreat: "They save Ace and then immediately run away? What a bunch of cowards you are, Whitebeard Pirates." He adds, "But he is the captain... I guess there's no helping it!! After all, Whitebeard... is a loser from a bygone age!!!" Ace stops cold and repeats, "A loser?" while Luffy and the others react in a...
