The sudden appearance of the Moby Dick, Whitebeard's main ship, had been followed by three other ships, infiltrating the bay. The coatings of the ships had disappeared upon making it above water. All had gone silent at the sound which echoed loudly on the island and eyes were focused on the Moby Dick. "It's been a while, Sengoku."
"Whitebeard." Where standing on the top and front of the ship...
"You better tell me that my beloved son... is all right!" Stood an abnormally large man, with a height of 666 cm (21'10"). He had a long face, ploughed because of the advanced age with many wrinkles around his eyes, and many scars running along his chest, and was very muscular. And what caused him to be called Whitebeard had to do with a white prominent crescent-shaped mustache that got along with his yellow eye. The man wore a black bandanna around his head and adorned himself with a white captain's coat, which hung loosely from his broad shoulders and bore his Jolly Roger symbol. He was seen bare-chested, and wore light, loose pants tucked inside his large black boots, and a dark pirate sash around his waist. Seeing him in person was quite intimidating for the marines.
"I can't believe that we let them get this close!" Sengoku was in complete shock at not only the fact that they were able to get through the Gates of Justice but also make it here without anyone even knowing.
"Oi, Newgate." Someone had come walking up the stairs to where Whitebeard was standing and it had pulled the old man's attention to behind him where he found the person standing beside him.
"O-Oi, isn't that... The Straw Hat's Blood Witch, Morozov Luna!?" That was being shouted in confusion as Luna

was standing along side Whitebeard. This had shocked many upon seeing this due to reports they heard about Kuma causing them all to disappear over a week ago. Luna seemed to have completely recovered, suffering from no injuries. "Stop talking and get this over and done with, I have better things to do." She wasn't even showing him any type of respect, which might have to do with the fact that she was technically older then him.
"You're right, Miss Luna." He had come to chuckle as he turned his attention back to the front. "Give me a second, Ace." That was being said directly to the boy.
"Pops!" Who bursted out back to him.
"Please hold this." Whitebeard handed Luna a brown striped pole ending in a spherical pommel, and a large, curved blade attached to the pole with a brass bolster, decorated with a relief of a sea snake, and langets protruding onto the blade itself. It was the same height as the man and weighed a lot and yet she didn't have a single problem with holding it. It was then when the man had crossed over his arms, hands in a ball before he came swinging and punching the air on both sides of him. The air seemed like it was grass and began cracking, many didn't know what was happening as they watched. However, the ocean had began to raise as if it were alive. The water surface was rising quite high which could only mean...
"A sea quake! He's distorting the sea!"
"The other side, too!" Two large scale waves had come to form which sent the marines in panic mode. This was the power of Whitebeard that can cause the sea to tremble. However, it had soon disappeared without a trace.
"Pops. Miss Luna. Everyone." Ace was looking out to his crew, plus Luna, in shocked at all this. "I ignored your advice and took off! Why didn't you just give up on me!?" He shouted asking as that would have been the best thing to do. "I'm the one who caused all of this!"
"No." Whitebeard had spoken denying Ace's words. "I'm the one who told you to go. Son." That was being said. "I told him to go. Ain't that right, Marco?" The old man had then asked his first commander, a tall, lean, muscular, blonde-haired man with a rather sleepy look on his face and some stubble around his chin. He wore an open purple jacket that showed Whitebeard's Jolly Roger tattooed on it. That was paired with dark gray knee-long pants which had both a light blue sash adorned and an elaborate golden-yellow belt around his waist. On his feet her wore black sandals, and on his left leg he wears what appears to be some sort of straw decoration. What caused him to stand out was his hair which caused the man to resemble a pineapple.
Yeah, I heard it too. We sent you into a lot of trouble, huh, Ace?" The man, Marco had responded while speaking to Ace. "This entire ocean should know... what happens when someone... harms one of our own crew mates."
"Anyone hurt you won't be allowed to live, Ace!"
"Hang on! We're coming for you, right now!" The entire crew had erupted into battle cries. 
"Prepare yourselves, Navy HQ!"
"He's gathered quite an impressive group, huh?" The admiral didn't seem the slightest bit fazed upon seeing this.
"What are they going on about?" Navy Admiral Akainu, an incredibly tall, light-skinned, unusually muscular man. He's about as tall as his fellow admirals, with a square-shaped face, very pronounced facial features, and short black hair. He stands at 306 cm (10'), and wore a standard Marine cap and sports a crimson, double-breasted suit, decorated with what appears to be a pink rose on his left buttonhole. Unlike many high-ranking Marines, he didn't wear a tie, but instead leaves his light red colored flower-patterned shirt unbuttoned, showing his muscular neck and part of his tattoo. And he finally wore a pair of black gloves and black shoes to complete his look. The man's eyes were looking right an Luna standing beside Whitebeard.
"I've got a bad feeling about this." Kizaru came to tell his fellow admirals. While at the same time...
We have the strength of navy headquarters greatest force, the three Admirals, plus we Seven Warlords, and 100,000 soldiers! Our opponents are the Whitebeard Pirates and the 40-odd ships backing them! So what are you gonna do, Whitebeard?!" Moria was shouting in complete excitement as he though they already won.
"I'm getting really excited here!" And Doflamingo was just excited for some blood shred, but Mihawk and Hancock stay quiet. "Are you're planning to stay on the sidelines again?" The flashy man was asking the two of them. "I bet you just came to pass the time, didn't you?" However they didn't respond to him. "Do whatever you want."
"It seems they haven't noticed, yet." Luna was speaking, glancing up to Whitebeard as she did. She was speaking about how the water levels was changing as the tension was rising that the stare down that the Marines and Pirates were having. Whitebeard's men had yet to move a muscle as they were on stand by just smiling or smirking. It was that reason that they didn't notice what it was Luna had said. Not that they were able to hear her as she was just speaking to the old man. Her attention had glanced off into the distance as the Island of Headquarters began to shake.
"What are these tremors?!" Many were confused upon the sudden shaking. 
"Here it comes. The sea quake that he set off earlier..." While those that knew Whitebeard well understand what was happening. "Is coming back as a tsunami! The earthquake-man, who ate the Quake-Quake Fruit... Whitebeard, Edward Newgate!" That was the cause of his actions upon the moment he stood before the Marines. The ocean began to shake and form.
"We might have him outnumbered, but don't assume that it guarantees victory... it's possible that we will be the ones to meet our end! That man... has the power to destroy the world!" Sengoku had shouted this to all his men, who originally thought it would be an easy win.
Whitebeard and his fleets of 47 pirate ships from the new world are attacking. Standing against them are the Government's to greatest forces: Navy headquarters and the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Regardless who wins, regardless who loses... the ear will change. Two giant waves had been formed on both sides of the island. The waves look like they are about to drown the whole of Marineford.
"Let the war begin..."
