[Insert text: Whitebeard stabbed!!]
Whitebeard'sEntireCrew: OLD MAN~~~~~~~!!!
Buggy: Whitebeard!!

4
People: Whitebeard... // ...was stabbed~~~~~~~~!!!!
Luffy: Old guy...
People: Aaaaaaghhhhh!!!
Reporter: ..Yes... It seems the one who stabbed him was the Captain... / ...of a pirate crew under Whitebeard's command... // ...the so-called "Vortex Spider", from the New World!!!
Squardo: *pant*... *pant*...
Marco: SQUARDOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Squardo: ..................Ngh...!!!

5
Marco: ...Why would you do a thing like this?!!!
Squardo: Ah, shut up!!! // It's you people who drove me to it!!!
Whitebeard: !!!
People: The old guy...... // Aaaaaghhhhhh!!!
Squardo: Why don't you put an end to this farce already, Whitebeard?!!! / You've already settled everything with the Marines, haven't you?! The lives of Ace and the Whitebeard Pirates are guaranteed safe from harm, am I wrong?!!
People: ?!! // What is he saying?! // What is the meaning of this?!!

6
Squardo: This whole damn affair is one great big trap!!! // I never knew... Never knew that ol' Ace was the son... / ...of Gold Roger himself......!!!
Whitebeard: ..................
Squardo: Why, when you first took me in...!!! // I was alone in the world............!! An' do you know why?! / Because my precious comrades, who had fought by my side through thick and thin, had been annihilated at the hands of that damn Roger...!!! // You know full well how much I hate that Roger man!!! // ......You shoulda said something, damn it...!!! / Shoulda told me that Ace was Roger's son, and that you were plannin' on making him the next Pirate King!!!
Whitebeard: ..................
Squardo: ............You've been betraying me all along... / Dammit, I was friends with Ace...... you've made a goddamn fool outta me!! / An' then of course, that same Ace who means so damn much to you went an' got himself caught...!!

7
Squardo: That's why you sold the lives of all 43 Captains of the pirate crews who sail under your banner!!! / Sold us all out in exchange for Ace's life!!!
Everyone: ?!
Squardo: The Whitebeard Pirates and Ace are safe!!! You've settled it all nice and proper with Sengoku!!! Do you deny it?!! / And look at the lot of us!! Without knowing any of this......... // We've come all this way to fight alongside you, putting our lives on the line all for the sake of Whitebeard and Ace... // ...and where has it got us?!!! // Who are the ones the Marines are pulverising right now?!! // It's us, dammit!!! / Caught behind a wave of ice and blocked off from any hope of escape!!!

8
People: ?!! // Aaaghhh!!! // *pant*... *pant*.........!! / Old guy...!! Is this true~~~~?!!!
Whitebeard: ............
Squardo: *pant*... *pant*.........!! // It's a miracle that I even managed to get in this one blow... I'm fully prepared for the consequences... so kill me!!
Flashback!Squardo: You think I'm gonna fall for your tricks?!!!
Flashback!Akainu: You won't be saying that for long. If you think I'm lying, you just take a good look at how things play out. // The concentrated attack is about to begin... and it's going to target only the allied crews fighting on Whitebeard's behalf!! // Not a finger will be laid upon the Whitebeard Pirates themselves...!!
People: Guahhh!!! // It's not true... it can't be......!! // Aaghhh!!! // But now you mention it, they really are only targeting us...!

9
People: ...............?!! // Whitebeard sold his allies out...... // ...to the Marines......?!!
Squardo: I didn't want to believe it... I couldn't believe what I was seeing......!!!
Marco: You damn fool!!! You should be ashamed of yourself, Squardo!!! / Why can't you believe in the old man?!!!
Squardo: Oh, don't you play dumb with me an' all, Marco!!!
Whitebeard: ......... // Ace is the son of Roger... that is the truth... / And by choosing the man who would be most swayed by that fact... it would seem their strategy was one step ahead of us.
Sengoku: AOKIJI!!!
Buggy: Hm?

10
People: So this whole war was a setup all along?! // All the fighting we just saw?! Then what was the point......?! / Is nothing going to be settled after all?! // Ahhh!!!
Aokiji: .........
People: Mobilise the Encircling Wall!!! // Yessir!!!
Crocodile: Why, that little...

11
Crocodile: YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF, WHITEBEARD!!! // CAN I TRULY HAVE BEEN DEFEATED BY A MAN SO WEAK AS THIS?!!!
Whitebeard: ..................
Mr1: .........!
Ivankov: Croco-boy...!!
Jimbei: Crocodile...
Marco: (......This isn't right......!!! He should have been able to avoid a blow like that...!! The old man I know...... no matter how unexpected the attack... // ...even if it came from a comrade he trusted completely... would never have let a blow like that catch him off guard......!! That's the real problem here...!!!)
Flashback!Whitebeard: What need have I for these devices?! Do you ask me to invite pity from the enemy?! Remove them all!!!
Flashback!Pirates: Old man...!!
Marco: (His condition must be worsening terribly...!!!)
Whitebeard: Squardo... to think that you would dare to raise a blade against your own father...... // Truly, you are a foolish son!!
Squardo: Nguahhh!!!

12-13
Whitebeard: Yet fool though you be...
Squardo: ?!!
Whitebeard: ...I love you all the same.
Squardo: ...Unnghh......?!! // Don't play games with me!!! You sold our lives to......!!
Whitebeard: Your heart was pure and loyal to the core...... yet someone saw fit to drag it down into the darkness nonetheless. Who was it?
Squardo: ...A rebel from within the Marines...!! He told me if I stabbed you, my crew would be saved!!!
Flashback!Akainu: I am opposed to this operation. It is Whitebeard who should perish in this battle!! / It would pain me deeply to let that man escape unharmed. Lend me your aid, and I will guarantee your crew's safety.
Whitebeard: ...Akainu told you that...? // The hatred you feel towards Roger...... I understand it all too well... // But Squardo... only a fool would think to blame the son for the father's crimes. What did Ace ever do to you...?!
Squardo: ..................
Whitebeard: Be a friend to him... / It is not Ace alone who is special to me... // Every last one of you... / ...are my family...
Squardo: !!!
Sengoku: ......
Whitebeard: .................. // Dear me... // You have not lost one jot of your talent, eh, Sengoku.........?!! // To think that you would pull a stunt like this on me...
People: Old man!! Say it isn't true!! // Guahhh!! // The bastard sold us out!! Dammitall!!
Whitebeard: I, sell the lives of my own sons...?!

14-15
People: ??!! // !!
Sengoku: .........Opening an escape route......... // ...for the pirates.........!! Such an unreasonable man...
Whitebeard: IF YOU ARE PIRATES!!! / THEN DECIDE WHO AND WHAT IT IS THAT YOU BELIEVE IN!!!!
People: The wall of ice was shattered.........!! // ...This battleship is in usable condition, too.........!! // .........!! Why, this means... we're free to escape whenever we choose......!!

16-17
People: ......!! // Old guy...!! // ...............!! / It was a lie after all!!! This was all just part of those accursed Marines' strategy...!!
Crocodile: .........
Whitebeard: (Weak, you call me...? Harsh words indeed... // Yet spare me your grievances, crocodile boy...!! For you and I both... are each but one man, with one heart. // They may call us demons, they may call us monsters... but neither one of us can remain the strongest forever......!!! // Surely if I can give a future to one young life, I have the right to leave the stage proud, do I not......?!)
Ace: Old man...
Whitebeard: All who wish to stand by my side... // ...throw your lives to the wind and follow me!!!
Pirates: YEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! // ONWARD~~~~~~~~~!!!!
Sengoku: PREPARE YOURSELVES!!! // THE WORLD'S STRONGEST MAN... IS ABOUT TO STRIKE!!!!
