Chapter 520: Charlotte VS Kong!
Psh!
The slash effortlessly cleaved through the giant lava dog and continued, without stopping, towards Kong's flagship.
Seeing this, Akainu immediately flew up to block the slash.
Bang!
The slash mercilessly cut at Akainu. He threw a punch to block it. His magma fist continuously wore down the power of the sword qi. Lava sputtered and splashed everywhere.
Bang!
The magma exploded, and the sword qi dissipated.
Akainu panted as he looked at Charlotte, the killing intent in his eyes constantly overflowing.
"Heh, you think a mere Vice Admiral like you can take one of my sword slashes?"
Looking at Akainu's ragged appearance and his sweat-drenched face, it was clear how much effort he had expended to block that single blow from Charlotte.
Akainu immediately stood up straight, wanting to fight Charlotte again.
"Akainu, leave this to me. Right now, you're still pushing yourself too hard."
Kong undid the "Justice" cape draped over his back. He loosened the tie at his collar and walked in front of Akainu, blocking his path forward.
Akainu looked at the Fleet Admiral blocking him, then gave Charlotte an unwilling glance.
And Charlotte looked at the approaching Kong.
"Hahahahaha, Kong! You finally stopped being a cowardly turtle!" Charlotte's voice was full of mockery.
Kong ignored Charlotte's taunts. Instead, he clenched his fists tightly. Armament Haki coated his arms.
"Die, Charlotte!"
Kong's explosive roar echoed through the clouds as he launched a punch like a meteor towards Charlotte.
Charlotte shook his head slightly, then a red glint appeared in his eyes.
"You're not worthy of killing me."
"Demon Slash!"
Charlotte slashed out with his sword. A crescent-shaped slash flew out, moving towards Kong in an irregular path.
Seeing this, Kong immediately changed his attack in mid-air. He threw a punch at the crescent-shaped slash.
Crack!
The sound of shattering was heard. The slash was smashed to pieces by Kong's punch.
But the moment after it was shattered, a black shadow appeared above Kong.
"Die, Fleet Admiral!"
Charlotte appeared above Kong, the Seven-Star Sword held high, with green-red Conqueror's Haki coiling around the blade. Lightning crackled.
BOOM!
A powerful and heavy slash enveloped the space above Kong.
Kong looked up at the ferocious sword qi.
"Damn it!"
Kong had no time to react.
BOOM!
The sword qi enveloped Kong's body. He was sent flying by the Conqueror's Haki-infused slash.
Bang!
Splash!
"Fleet Admiral!"
Seeing this, the surrounding Marines all shouted. Akainu's eyes were practically splitting with rage.
"Charlotte, I'll kill you!"
"Great Eruption!"
A giant magma fist smashed towards Charlotte in mid-air.
Charlotte didn't even look at it, his gaze fixed on the sea's surface.
"Magma man, did you forget about me!" Caesar's voice rang out.
A bestial aura suddenly appeared on the battlefield. Caesar strode forward and met the "Great Eruption" attack. He fiercely swung the guan dao in his hand at the magma fist.
Bang!
The magma exploded, falling into the sea with a hissing sound.
"Sakazuki, my old rival, I'm back!"
The smoke cleared, and Caesar's figure appeared before Akainu's eyes. Caesar grinned at him.
Akainu's brow furrowed. Without a word, he threw a punch, wanting to knock Caesar back so he could go rescue the Fleet Admiral.
But there was no way Caesar would let Akainu have his wish. He blocked with his great blade, standing directly in Akainu's path.
"Akainu, if you want to save your Fleet Admiral, you'll have to get past me first!"
After speaking, Caesar raised his great blade and swung it fiercely. The powerful shockwave instantly destroyed the ship beneath Akainu, forcing him to leap to another one.
Seeing this, Caesar's eyes lit up. His body instantly expanded. A thousand-meter-long dragon soared into the sky.
"Heat Breath!"
A huge flame rose, shooting towards the Marine warships.
Akainu, who had been about to dodge, saw this and immediately turned both his arms into magma, punching through the flame. When the flame dissipated, a great blade emerged from within it.
"10,000 Ton ~ Thunder Crescent Slash!"
The lightning-wreathed great blade slashed towards Akainu's arm. Akainu reacted by fiercely raising his left arm as well, firmly blocking the blow.
Tied up by Caesar, Akainu couldn't spare any thought for the Fleet Admiral. He could only defeat Caesar first and then check on the Fleet Admiral's condition. Thinking of this, Akainu no longer cared about the Fleet Admiral's life or death and fiercely slammed a punch onto Caesar's great blade.
Caesar could clearly feel that this was different from their previous exchange.
"Getting serious? Then let's have a satisfying, all-out battle!"
Caesar raised his great blade and looked fiercely at Akainu. The cold glint from the Armament Haki-coated black blade made everyone's heart tremble. The destructive power of their battle was far beyond anyone's imagination.
During the fight between Caesar and Akainu, basically after every dozen or so exchanges, a warship would be unable to hold up.
"Damn it!"
Akainu watched as the surrounding ships grew fewer and fewer. He looked at Caesar flying in the sky and gnashed his teeth in anger. This bastard was intentionally destroying the warships under his feet, and there was nothing he could do about it. There were no islands nearby in this sea area.
"Aokiji! Create a battlefield!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Akainu looked at Kuzan, who was in a back-and-forth fight with Marco, and shouted.
Kuzan looked at the ragged Akainu, then at Caesar fighting him. He then waved both his hands.
"Ice Age!"
A pale blue cold air instantly enveloped the battlefield. The seawater rapidly froze over. The great sea was frozen solid.
The ships on both sides, which had still been firing cannons, were suddenly fixed in place. Everyone was stunned for a moment, but then they saw the opponent's stationary warships.
"Fire! Fire for me!" the pirate side reacted instantly and roared.
The motionless ships were like sitting ducks, picked off one by one by the gunners on both sides.
"My sons, follow me and charge!"
After the cannonballs were spent, the pirates leaped off their ships onto the solid ice and charged the Marines, who were assembling just like them.
The sea was frozen. Akainu now had a foothold.
"Pirate, your death is not far off!" Akainu said, the magma on his arms flowing continuously. He then pushed off his feet in an instant.
Caesar, in mid-air, narrowly avoided the attack.
And not far away, while Akainu and Caesar were fighting, a figure broke through the surface of the water. A completely soaked Kong burst out. A powerful wave of Conqueror's Haki shot towards Charlotte like a meteor.
That last attack had apparently not affected Kong in the slightest, aside from his slightly disordered aura. The clothes on his upper body were torn apart, revealing his bronze skin. As expected of "Steel Bone" Kong; there are wrongly given names, but never wrongly given epithets. The ancients did not deceive me.
This is going to be another difficult war of attrition.
Charlotte's eyes turned cold, and he flipped the Seven-Star Sword in his hand. He swung his sword in a slash. A sword strike, also wreathed in Conqueror's Haki, clashed with a fist wreathed in Conqueror's Haki.
The battle between the strongest experts in this world had begun.
