Ivankov tells Luffy, "We're through the gate!! Now then, my concern is whether your and Ace's father is going to show up here or not!!!" Luffy is confused and asks, "Mine and Ace's?" When Ivankov says Ace's father is Gol D. Roger, Luffy answers that Ace and he do not have the same father. He casually explains that Dragon would do nothing when his own son is about to be executed because Ace has never met him and gets mad if Luffy brings it up. The ship then crashes through the waves, startling the escapees. Page 7: Whitebeard makes his first move. The sea heaves into an enormous wave around Marineford, and Marines scream as they realize the scale of the attack. One asks what the explosion was, another says it is not good and points to the height of the wave, while Luffy, watching from afar, says he still cannot see because the mist is too thick. Sengoku recognizes the danger and calls it a seaquake. Whitebeard cracks the air with both hands, and the Marines ask whether the air itself is cracking. The quake power throws the battlefield into chaos before a single ordinary exchange of fire begins.
