"I don't have time to play with you right now. Get out of the way, Kuzan." Alucard stared at Kuzan. Even though his appearance was that of a loli in a white coat, his voice was still Alucard's male voice, which once again startled Kuzan.
A few seconds later, Kuzan seemed to recover from the shock of the "male-voiced loli." His eyes, under his sunglasses, intentionally and unintentionally glanced at the loli Alucard's Adam's apple and other features, and then he let out a dry laugh. "Arara, as a little girl, you shouldn't be using words like 'play' so casually. You won't grow up to be a good woman, you know..."
Before he became an Admiral, Kuzan already had this lazy tone, which was what Zephyr disliked about him the most. Coupled with his rock band-like attire, if it weren't for the Marine emblem on his headband, who would even recognize him as a Marine?
"Scram!" Alucard didn't waste any time. He condensed a broadsword from his Blacklight Virus. After hardening it with Armament Haki, he attacked Kuzan with the force to split a mountain.
Kuzan blew on his hand, instantly condensing an ice sword in his right hand. He shouted, "You awakened Armament Haki at such a young age? How scary~"
Bang!!!
The broadsword and the ice sword collided, instantly blowing all the tiles off the roof. In the next second, Alucard condensed a curved blade with his other hand, also infused with Haki, and attacked in the opposite direction.
Kuzan snapped his other hand, and two ice spears appeared on both sides of his shoulder, pointing at the curved blade in Alucard's other hand. "Ice Block: Partisan!"
Clang!!
Another heavy sound rang out, making the Marines who were attacking Dragon turn their heads to look. They saw the two of them suspended in mid-air, clashing with long-range attacks.
"Miss! If you're not a criminal, we can be lenient if you come back with us and cooperate. Can we just stop fighting?" Kuzan shouted, but his attacks didn't stop at all. He raised his right hand and then brought it down, and the cold air above their heads instantly condensed into three huge ice balls the size of houses, which then came crashing down.
"A kid is just a kid!" Alucard scoffed. His legs, which looked surprisingly long despite his small body and attire, swung out and kicked the three large ice balls towards Kuzan as if scoring a goal in soccer.
"Arara, to be called a kid by a kid, I must have truly hit rock bottom." Kuzan turned into his logia form and faced the ice balls head-on. Two seconds later, his shattered body reformed in a matter of seconds.
"I told you to get lost!" When Kuzan's logia body returned to normal, the white-coated girl had already appeared in front of him, swinging her right fist at his face at point-blank range.
Kuzan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately turned his face into ice to block the attack, but he was still sent flying. He quickly put his long legs on the ground, but he couldn't stop himself from sliding. In the end, he had no choice but to add a hand to his defense to barely stop his body. At this point, Kuzan was almost a hundred meters away from Alucard.
"Vice Admiral Kuzan is on the defensive!"
"Who is that kid?!"
There were still almost two hundred of Kuzan's subordinates left in this area. When they saw Kuzan get sent flying again, they couldn't help but cover their temples with their hands in despair.
A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl had this much power? What would happen if she got any older? She would probably be even more powerful than Big Mom, right?
"Atata, how terrifying..." After Kuzan's face returned to normal from ice, blood dripped from his right nostril. Although he still had his usual nonchalant expression, the eyes behind his sunglasses had become serious. "I think I should keep a close eye on you. Although I've always dealt with lawless individuals, I can tell at a glance that you're something else, miss, both in terms of power and temperament."
After saying this seriously, Kuzan put a hand on his chin and reasoned, "Also, why do I have the feeling that I've seen your voice and those eyes somewhere before... That, this, um, it was that..."
Just as the Marines below were waiting for Kuzan's answer, he scratched the back of his head and said nonchalantly, "Hmm... I forgot. Whatever!"
The Marines nearby all fell to the ground.
In fact, Alucard and Kuzan hadn't seen each other for several years. Because of this, the lazy Kuzan only had a faint memory of him and couldn't remember him for the time being. If Shiki, who had worked with Alucard half a year ago, were here, he would probably have recognized him immediately.
"Heh! Try this!" The loli Alucard's right hand transformed into a bio-mechanical hand with three steel claws. In the next second, he plunged it into the ground.
A few seconds later, Kuzan felt an extremely dangerous aura coming from the ground. Without thinking about anything else, he immediately put a hand on the ground. "Ice Age!"
"Vice Admiral Kuzan! We're still here!" Seeing Kuzan suddenly use his signature attack, the Marines all shouted in panic. But it was too late. Kuzan completely froze the ground in this area, but he stopped abruptly a few meters away from his subordinates.
Two seconds later, Kuzan felt something from underground trying to pierce through his ice. Suddenly, the ice was broken, and blades connected by solid blood plasma pierced through the ground!
On the other side, the battle between Zephyr, Sengoku, and Dragon was also continuing. Dragon's original plan was to escape through a secret passage in the inn outpost. He had considered the possibility of having to cause an explosion, and although a "girl pretending to be a Celestial Dragon" was beyond his expectations, the current situation was not out of his control. He could still escape. Because... this was Secon Island.
After leading Zephyr and Sengoku to the Kazanonsen, Dragon also stopped and turned to look at the two highest-ranking Marine officials. If these two joined forces, even his father, Garp, couldn't guarantee a victory, let alone him. However, he wasn't here to fight them.
