Mihawk didn't answer. Instead, he looked towards the two rapidly approaching auras with a stern gaze, and said to Koushirou, "It seems that our battle can't continue today."
Koushirou said, "It doesn't matter. The result of this battle can already be foreseen. You have already surpassed me."
Koushirou also looked towards the direction where Mihawk's gaze was, and asked, "You want to help that little brother block his enemies? You should be very clear that his opponents are the Navy."
"I am also a pirate." Mihawk said.
Koushirou smiled, and said, "Do you want me to help? There are two people coming. It's estimated that it will be difficult for you to block them alone. Do you want me to help?"
Mihawk looked at Koushirou in surprise, and asked, "Don't you usually not ask about this kind of thing? Why would you say these words?"
Koushirou smiled, and said, "That little brother is very interesting. If I can help, it wouldn't hurt to help him a bit."
"Swish, swish!"
Two figures appeared in front of Mihawk and Koushirou at an extremely fast speed. It was precisely Aokiji and Akainu.
Aokiji and Akainu saw Mihawk and Koushirou at a glance. Aokiji's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Hawkeye, Mihawk!"
Seeing Akainu and Aokiji, Mihawk's brows also furrowed. Akira Stone's actions just now had let him know that there were Navy experts chasing after him.
However, he had never expected that the people chasing Akira Stone would actually be these two. Akainu and Aokiji were well-known figures in the Navy. He had personally witnessed the abilities of these two in Loguetown Plaza.
They definitely had the strength of Navy Admirals. Akira Stone was actually able to escape from the hands of these two. This made Mihawk's regard for Akira Stone increase by a few points again.
Mihawk didn't say anything. He held his Black Sword horizontally towards the direction of Aokiji and Akainu. The sword aura was pressing.
Akainu had been filled with fire by Akira Stone these past few days. At this time, seeing that Mihawk actually dared to hold his sword against him, a strong cold light flashed in his eyes. Without any hesitation, he attacked towards Mihawk. The terrifying magma giant fist carried a terrifying power.
"Slash!"
Mihawk's attacks were always so simple. However, that simple slash contained extremely strong power.
"Boom!"
Aokiji, who was on the side, moved, and prepared to join hands with Akainu to take down Mihawk. Suddenly, Koushirou's body swayed, and blocked in front of him. Aokiji asked in a deep voice, "You shouldn't be a pirate, right? Why are you stopping me?"
Koushirou said faintly, "Battles should be fair. I'll be your opponent!"
Akira Stone ran away quickly. He hadn't been gone for long when he felt huge fluctuations coming from behind. He knew that Mihawk must have already started fighting with Akainu and the others.
This made him feel a little grateful in his heart. Speaking of which, Mihawk had only met him two or three times, but he had already helped him twice. Akira Stone always remembered this favor in his heart.
Akira Stone was very clear that Mihawk's strength was very strong. He should be able to block Akainu and the others for a long time. So he immediately headed towards Loguetown at the fastest speed.
He had been circling around with Akainu and the others for so long. It wasn't very far from Loguetown anymore. As long as he arrived at Loguetown, and met up with Marco, the two of them would have a great chance of escaping the Navy's pursuit.
He didn't know how long Mihawk and Akainu's battle had lasted. Anyway, in the day or so that followed, Akira Stone wasn't chased by Akainu and the others again. This allowed him to have a rare time to adjust.
However, these good days didn't last for too long. Just as he was about to arrive at Loguetown, he was chased by Akainu and Aokiji again, forcing him to run wildly again. However, this also let Akira Stone understand one point. It was really unrealistic to shake off Akainu and Aokiji.
Akira Stone didn't delay either. He directly headed towards the place that he and the Roger Pirates had agreed on before. He was very certain that even if the others weren't there, Marco would definitely be waiting for him there.
"Akira Stone, ah, it's so good that you're alright."
Akira Stone's guess was correct. Marco was indeed waiting for him at the agreed place. Moreover, it wasn't just him alone. Apart from him, there was also Rayleigh and two other members of the Roger Pirates. As soon as Marco saw Akira Stone appear, he excitedly rushed up.
Ever since he had separated from Akira Stone, Marco had always been very regretful and worried. He hadn't expected that even though he had shown off so arrogantly at the beginning, there was actually only Kizaru who had come to chase him.
The remaining Akainu and Aokiji had still stayed behind to deal with Akira Stone. In the end, with the help of Rayleigh and the others, he had defeated Kizaru. However, there had been no news of Akira Stone all along.
If it wasn't for Rayleigh stopping him, he was afraid that he would have gone to search for Akira Stone everywhere long ago.
Seeing Marco again, Akira Stone was also very excited in his heart. He gave Marco a bear hug, and then said, "Now isn't the time to reminisce. Akainu and Aokiji have been hanging behind me all along. We must seize the time to leave."
Rayleigh asked in surprise, "You mean, you've been chased by Akainu and Aokiji these past few days?"
Akira Stone nodded, and said, "Don't mention it. Those two were chasing me like crazy, making it so that I almost collapsed these past few days.
Fortunately, someone helped me block them for a while a few days ago. That's why I was able to come here to meet you smoothly."
Rayleigh and the other two Roger Pirates crew members revealed looks of surprise in their eyes after hearing Akira Stone's words.
Akira Stone was actually able to escape for so long under the joint efforts of Akainu and Aokiji. It was difficult to imagine that this ability was being displayed on a ten-year-old boy.
"Akainu and Aokiji are still chasing you?" Rayleigh asked Akira Stone.
Akira Stone said, "They're right behind me. They should catch up soon."
Rayleigh nodded, and said, "You and Marco leave first. We'll help you block Akainu and Aokiji. Don't stay in the East Blue anymore. Directly enter the New World through the Grand Line. You'll be safe when you reach the New World."
"Alright."
Akira Stone and Marco didn't say much. With Rayleigh and the others helping, it shouldn't be a big problem to block Akainu and the other two.
They also didn't waste time. After saying goodbye to Rayleigh and the others, Akira Stone and Marco immediately hurried towards the Calm Belt that led to the first half of the Grand Line.
In order to maximize their speed, Akira Stone and the other two traveled light. In addition, the two of them both possessed the ability to fly. So they didn't need a ship at all. They prepared to directly use their flying ability to pass through the Calm Belt, and enter the Grand Line.
With Marco by his side, Akira Stone could finally rest at ease. The two of them were still taking the Calm Belt, just like when they had come to the East Blue before.
However, this time was much easier than that time, because Akira Stone's Minazuki had shared too much of Marco's fatigue, so the two of their speed had also increased a lot.
Because Marco and Akira Stone were taking the Calm Belt, in this area, even the Navy, all of their intelligence capabilities could only disappear completely.
Moreover, even Akainu and Aokiji, without ships, would find it difficult to pass through the Calm Belt. At the very least, their speed was definitely not as fast as Akira Stone and the others, who could fly.
It was just that Akira Stone and Marco were both very clear that once they entered the first half of the Grand Line, their test would only truly begin, because the first half of the Grand Line was where the Navy's strength was the largest. The pirate forces and the Navy simply couldn't be compared.
Akira Stone and Marco quickly passed through the Calm Belt, and entered the first half of the Grand Line. After entering the Grand Line, Akira Stone and the other two naturally wouldn't continue to rely on their abilities to fly like before.
After all, this was the Navy's home ground. As long as they caused a slight commotion, they would be discovered by the Navy.
At the time when Akira Stone and the others entered the Grand Line, Jozu and Vista of the Whitebeard Pirates had also come to the Grand Line from the New World.
They had been ordered by Whitebeard to meet Marco and Akira Stone. So after entering the Grand Line, they started to inquire about news everywhere.
He didn't know if it was because Akira Stone and the others were lucky, or if the Navy really couldn't find them. After he and Marco entered the Grand Line, they actually arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago smoothly all the way.
Moreover, they had met up with Jozu and the others very smoothly. Then, they went to the New World from the seabed of the Sabaody Archipelago.
Actually, the reason why Akira Stone and the others were able to do this so smoothly was entirely because the Navy hadn't expected that their speed would actually be so fast.
They had entered the Grand Line from the East Blue, and had arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago in just a few days. The Navy hadn't even arranged an interception defense line yet.
That's why Akira Stone and the others had seized the opportunity, and had escaped the Grand Line.
"Dad, we're back."
New World, Moby Dick, Whitebeard Pirates. Marco and Akira Stone had finally returned to their home. At the moment when they saw Whitebeard, Akira Stone and Marco both shouted excitedly.
Whitebeard laughed loudly, "Gurarahahaha, my proud children, you finally know to come home, gurarahahaha..."
The other members of the Whitebeard Pirates also responded to Akira Stone and Marco's return with the most sincere laughter.
Whitebeard laughed loudly, "I won't pursue you for leaving without permission. However, you actually dared to do such a big thing in front of the Navy. You have quite the guts."
