"Akainu lost?"
On the End, Nami was stunned at first, then punched hard and cheered, "You are worthy of being my brother!"
"It's too early to be happy, it's not that simple."
Kuina looked at the sea and shook her head slightly:
"In this world, no one can defeat an admiral so easily. If they lose their combat effectiveness after falling into the sea, then most of the top strong people standing at the top of the world wouldn't be capable."
Huh?
Nami was full of question marks.
What else can one do if they have fallen into the sea?
The last time she was taking a nap at the bow, she turned over and fell into the sea. She was exhausted and her consciousness scattered on the spot. If Gin hadn't found her and jumped into the sea to carry her up immediately, she would have almost drowned.
Kuina was speechless.
Can you be the same as an admiral of the navy?
She sighed and was about to explain but seemed to sense something and turned her eyes to the distance with a serious look.
"Are you here?"
It was almost dusk.
In the setting sun.
Due north, southwest, and southeast — the three directions — the navy fleets appeared almost simultaneously, and the base numbers on their canvases were also different.
The other crew members looked over and noticed this, their expressions suddenly changed.
"We are surrounded!"
Nojigo couldn't wait to take out the mithril gloves and put them on. He clashed his fists together, and a biting cold air dissipated. "Hehe, I came just in time. There's no fight to fight on Fishman Island, and I just feel itchy."
"Is there going to be a naval battle?" Robin chuckled. In the past, it was difficult for her to get close to the enemy ship, but now she has mastered the moon step and can also use the fruit to transform into wings. She also has good combat power at sea.
"G-1, G-5, G-14."
Smoker exhaled a puff of smoke and pulled out ten hands from his back, saying faintly, "The naval fleets of the three major branches of the New World are dispatched at the same time. Tsk, this is too much of a face-giving."
"Let's do it the same way as before, everyone!"
Nami patted her chest, full of confidence, "Those troublesome vice admirals and the like are handed over to you, and the lieutenants and soldiers under me, the user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, will help you stop them!"
"Really?"
Zeff was still bending over and slowly cleaning the table, "Let me remind you that you are in the New World now. Even among the navy with low ranks, there are many who are domineering."
"Ah? So shameless?!"
Nami's face suddenly fell, her eyes rolled around, and she looked at Jack, "Then my mission is handed over to you, Jack. I, I will stay here to guard the ship, and never let any shells or anything fall on the ship!"
"No problem, big sister!" Jack immediately responded with a grin.
"Can you do it alone?" Smoker glanced at Nami.
"It's okay, I'll stay here too. I'll leave the front line to you young people."
Zeff picked up the last few plates and said with a smile.
That's good enough. With old man Zeff's leg skills, it's enough to ensure that the End is unscathed. Smoker nodded and retracted his gaze in the face of Nami's gritting teeth.
"That's it."
Kuina put her right hand on the hilt of the sword and took a deep breath. "Go directly and take the initiative to attack, stop the warships in the distance, and never let them interfere with Lord Shano. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Well, prepare for battle!"
Swish, swish, swish!
Several figures rushed out from the deck in moon steps, two or three people in a group, and attacked the warships in three directions.
...
The shore.
Dor was still staring at the sea. Logically, she should have returned to her warship at this time, joined another vice admiral of the G-14 branch, and commanded her fleet to complete the encirclement.
But... if Admiral Akainu loses his fighting power, what's the point of this encirclement?
Besides, she absolutely doesn't believe that Akainu is a man who can be knocked down so easily...
Boom!!!
At this moment, the large sea surface near the old lighthouse suddenly began to surge violently.
As expected!
Doer's eyes burst into surprise.
In her pupils, the originally azure seawater, with Akainu as the center, began to turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a few seconds, the sea surface within a radius of hundreds of meters was completely boiling, and the rolling waves turned into hot magma, turning the entire sea area into a purgatory sea of fire!
Swish!
The raging magma broke through the sea surface, and Akainu stepped on the giant lava pillar and rose again, his whole body bathed in fire, like a red devil crawling out of hell.
"It's not that simple."
Shano seemed to have expected this scene long ago, and spoke leisurely.
For these top masters who have been roaming the sea for decades, falling into the sea is definitely not a one-time or two-time thing, and they can always find a solution.
Akainu's method is very rough.
—That is to wrap his whole body with a strong armed color to isolate the seawater.
Then activate the ability to eliminate the surrounding seawater, or turn it into another substance, and then return to the surface of the sea.
This sounds simple.
But it is actually very difficult to do it.
The whole body of the fruit ability user is immersed in the seawater, and the feeling of weakness is no joke.
Those with poor willpower can't even use a little domineering, let alone cover the whole body with domineering and completely isolate the seawater.
Only a real strong man like Akainu, whose willpower is also extremely terrifying, can explode in this desperate situation and disintegrate the malice and murderous intent of this sea towards the fruit ability user!
"Little devil..."
Akainu's face was cold, but he stared at Shano solemnly.
His justice cloak had been burned, revealing a strong upper body with clear muscle lines, but covered with new and old scars.
The newest one was, of course, the scar on his right shoulder, which was left by Shano before he escaped from the battle on Tor Island half a year ago.
The rest of the scars were fine, as they were all left by famous opponents, but at that time, Shano was just a rookie who had just stepped into the Grand Line.
Actually...
What a shame!!
In the past six months, Akainu has always been thinking about meeting Shano again one day, thinking that this time he would not hold back, would not underestimate the enemy, and would not give the other party a chance to escape...
But the only thing he didn't expect was that
they had only not seen each other for half a year!
Half a year!
The opponent's strength has reached this point, almost standing at the same level as himself!!!
"I can't leave you here! If you are allowed to grow at this speed, I am afraid that sooner or later, you will become the most terrible threat on this sea!"
"Betting on the honor and justice of the navy, I must destroy you here even if I risk my life today!"
Akainu shouted angrily.
He slowly raised his right arm, and the magma wrapped around him like a living thing, turning into a ferocious giant lava dog again, but it was much larger than before, roaring and rushing towards Shano!
"Dog Biting Red Lotus·Boundless Purgatory!"
Boom!!!
The giant lava dog instantly split into dozens of them, biting wildly from all directions, blocking all of Shano's retreat routes.
Originally, there was magma all below, and at this moment, the high temperature distorted the air, and even the sky was dyed dark red, as if the entire sea area had become Akainu's home court!
An upgraded skill?
"Fancy!"
Shano sneered, his figure suddenly blurred, turned into a residual shadow and penetrated into the group of lava dogs. Instead of retreating, he approached Akainu.
Those ferocious dogs that approached and opened their mouths to bite were all destroyed by his punches. Roughly and directly, the shapeless magma kept splashing in the air, and finally fell into the sea.
"It seems..."
Akainu raised his head slightly, looking at the figure of the boy who was constantly enlarging in his field of vision.
"One thing has not changed. You still like to rely on your outstanding brute force and squander your physical strength."
His face was as gloomy as water, and his right hand suddenly waved, "You like to take it so much, then I want to see if you can take all of this move!"
"Meteor Volcano!"
Boom!!!
The entire magma sea suddenly boiled, and countless magma fists rose into the sky like a volcanic eruption, turning into a rain of fire like meteorites, and smashed towards Shano!
Shano raised his eyebrows slightly, and showed a rare surprise when he saw this.
He remembered it very clearly.
In the battle at the top, Akainu launched a meteor volcano against the Whitebeard Pirates. It was first fired into the sky, and then fell from the sky. The source was his body.
In front of him, Akainu's body did not touch the magma sea below, but he could still easily turn it into his weapon.
This is the power that can only be possessed by the awakening of the natural system!
Sure enough, the three admirals of the navy, whether in terms of physical strength, physical skills, or the development of devil fruits, are monster-level existences!
But... it doesn't matter!
Half a year ago on Tor Island, Akainu ended with this move, forcing him to jump into the sea and dare not stay for long. He could only use "Sealing Dust Absolute Thought Slash" to teleport several times in a row to escape.
And now?
Now...
I am also a monster!!!
Facing the overwhelming magma meteorites, Shano laughed loudly, without dodging, and suddenly raised his right hand, with the tiger's mouth facing the sky, and stretched it into a palm shape!
"God Split!"
Buzz——!
A huge black and red disc as big as a wheel suddenly appeared.
As it spun rapidly, countless thick black and red thunderbolts spread out in all directions, making the sky, which was already dark, even darker.
Shano did not look up at the disc, but instead looked at the endless meteorites rushing down below, with a grin on his face.
His "Qi Yuan Zhan" was originally a magical modification that he added his own ingredients to after his practice failed and he was inspired by the sword flower of the Baboon King.
It was composed of countless silky and domineering auras, intertwined like weaving.
It can gather together—
of course it can also disperse again!
The dark ring suddenly expanded with Shano's palm as the center, suddenly expanding a large circle, and then expanding a large circle, and gaps continued to appear in the middle.
When it almost covered the sky and the sun, like the shade of towering trees, it had already turned into a shape similar to a giant mosquito coil.
As Shano's palm suddenly turned downward, it scattered and split into countless sharp black and red slash waves, shooting out towards the sea below!
Boom boom boom boom!!!
Every slash transformed by the domineering color hits a magma meteorite accurately, penetrates and destroys it, and explodes brilliant flames in the air.
From a distance, it looked like fireworks blooming in the night, illuminating the entire sea like daylight.
"Is it easily resolved?"
Akainu's face was ugly. The longer they fought, the more he could feel how comprehensive the opponent's improvement was—not just in physical strength, but in all aspects!
Using the domineering color to this extent, even among the four emperors, I am afraid it is only inferior to the red-haired one who is famous for his domineering power, right?
"What are you daydreaming about!"
At this moment, Shano suddenly rushed out from the smoke and dust of the explosion, with black and red lightning wrapped around his body. His speed was so fast that he almost approached Akainu in an instant!
In Akainu's stunned eyes, he punched him with a ferocious smile:
"Fighting with me, do you still have time to distract yourself!"
Akainu hastily raised his lava arms to block, stepped back a few steps, and then also put his fists together, fighting with Shano in close combat.
Boom!
The visual impact of the fist-to-flesh confrontation was far less terrible than before, but it made the battle more pure and easier to get angry.
The two of them looked at each other closely, and they were silent, but the strength in their hands seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding, constantly increasing, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
Before it was completely dark, the two had already fought for more than hundreds of rounds.
The two were very similar in physique. In terms of strength and lethality, Akainu was even better. However, Shano's boxing was too strange, combining hardness and softness, making it difficult for him to defend himself.
He was hit in the chest, abdomen, and shoulders one after another. This was the result of him using elementalization in time to avoid some of them, but he still had many injuries, and he felt severe pain all over his body.
On the other side, although Shano also had many injuries, he recovered at an astonishingly fast speed, and there was almost no sign of disorder in his aura.
This made Akainu more and more annoyed and anxious. The last thing he could be sure of was that the other party was also like the generals of their generation, the type who was not afraid of a protracted battle, with abundant physical strength and the ability to self-repair like an awakened animal type...
Even if he was confident that he could eventually defeat Shano, he couldn't expect it before dawn... No.
It should be said that it would be hard to tell the winner for at least a few days and nights!
And just as he was thinking like lightning, Shano kicked him right in the eye.
The area around his right eye suddenly sunken, leaving an ugly black mark.
"Damn kid!"
Akainu roared, unable to suppress his anger any longer, and suddenly erupted. Lava exploded from his body like a volcanic eruption, and his right fist suddenly expanded and punched Shano in the face.
"Hell Dog! I'm waiting for this blow from you!"
Shano's eyes burst into brilliance, and he had no intention of dodging at all. He took the blow with his chest covered with armed color domineering, and his right fist was slightly pulled back, suddenly rippling like flowing water.
The seemingly gentle fist, but the moment it touched Akainu's chest, it erupted with terrifying power like a landslide!
"The Spear of Elbaf... Weiguo·Ji!"
Boom!!!
The flesh on Akainu's chest exploded, and he flew backwards like a broken sack, spitting out a large mouthful of blood, and rolled over and over, plowing a thousand-meter-long gully in the molten sea.
