"You bastard, are you trying to destroy everything here?"
Whitebeard laughed and said, "I told you to protect it well, but you couldn't protect it, so who can you blame?"
Akainu's strength was still very terrifying. Among the Navy's three admirals, his attack was the strongest. Having him face Whitebeard did indeed bring a lot of trouble to Whitebeard. At least it was difficult for Whitebeard to pass through him at the fastest speed.
"That Marco, he really doesn't listen to advice."
Akira, seeing that Marco had been knocked down to the ground, had his expression turn somewhat ugly. Marco's actions had ultimately drawn out Garp. Although he wasn't afraid of the Navy admirals at all, he still had great apprehension towards Garp, the legendary Navy hero. Because he hadn't fought him before, he didn't know how strong he was. However, after all, he was a man from the same era as Roger. His strength definitely wouldn't be weak. His addition was definitely not a good thing for them.
Akira looked towards the direction where Whitebeard was, and discovered that Whitebeard was no different. He knew that Whitebeard was old, and his combat power had definitely declined, and his physical fitness had also deteriorated. The injuries he had suffered when he was young were very likely to erupt one by one under this high-intensity duel.
Whitebeard was the head of the pirate crew, and he absolutely couldn't afford to lose him. Just like in the original story, once Whitebeard was injured, the Whitebeard Pirates would immediately fall into a disadvantage. So, Akira had been paying attention to the battle there with Whitebeard. As long as a problem appeared with Whitebeard, he would rush to support him at the fastest speed.
A golden light attacked, and Akira reacted freely, blocking it. Kizaru's voice came from his ear.
"Fighting me, and you still dare to be distracted, Death God, are you really not afraid of death?"
Akira blocked Kizaru's Ama no Murakumo, and said with disdain, "With you, you still want to injure me? I really don't know where you get your confidence, Kizaru. You're just a little faster, but here with me, you don't have any advantages."
Kizaru's characteristic was that he was fast. However, he was facing Akira, who had released Tensa Zangetsu. His speed and attacks had reached a terrifying level. Even his Glint-Glint Fruit couldn't play any role in front of Akira.
"Young people can't be too confident, or they might capsize, just like now."
Kizaru smiled wretchedly, and then he suddenly raised his right foot, kicking towards Akira at a strange angle. Because the two were very close, and were using their weapons to block each other, this kick of his was really hard to defend against.
"Is that so?"
The Light Speed Kick was indeed very fast, and because of the height difference, Kizaru's foot was about to kick Akira, but Akira wasn't flustered at all, and asked a question, and then shouted lightly, and actually separated Kizaru's Ama no Murakumo, and Tensa Zangetsu stabbed towards Kizaru's foot.
Kizaru's expression changed. He didn't have time to continue attacking, and quickly turned his right foot into golden light. The next moment, he was stabbed by Akira's sword, and Akira backhanded and slashed at Kizaru's body again.
"Shoo!"
Kizaru turned into golden light, and then re-condensed at a place a few meters away, but his expression became somewhat ugly, because a small wound had actually appeared on his right foot. It was precisely left by Akira's stab just now.
Akira looked at Kizaru, and said lightly, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want with a Logia ability. Your speed is very fast, but your every move is under my perception. You wanted to sneak attack me, but you didn't know that you were falling right into my trap. However, your reaction was also very fast, otherwise what I would have left behind wouldn't have been a wound, but a foot."
"You bastard."
Kizaru's expression was extremely gloomy. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had been injured and bled. He didn't expect that because of his momentary carelessness, he would be injured by Akira.
"What goes around comes around!"
Akira quoted a very classic line. Back then, he had been chased by Kizaru everywhere. Because of the Glint-Glint Fruit's ability, he had suffered a lot at Kizaru's hands. Among the Navy's three admirals, he used to hate encountering Kizaru the most.
But now, facing Kizaru, he wasn't worried at all. The ten years of prison life had not only allowed him to train his Haoshoku Haki to a terrifying level, but even his Kenbunshoku Haki had reached its peak.
Back then, he had learned from Roger for a few days. During that time, the most he had learned was the use of Kenbunshoku Haki, because that was Roger's most skilled ability, and he happened to be a natural Kenbunshoku Haki user, so Roger had guided him.
Roger's Kenbunshoku Haki was the strongest in the world, there was no doubt about that. It was said that he could listen to the voices of all things. Although it was a bit exaggerated, Roger did indeed have a very high attainment in Kenbunshoku Haki. Under Roger's guidance, Akira also had a very deep understanding of Kenbunshoku Haki.
In the ten years in Impel Down, he couldn't train his physique, and he couldn't train his swordsmanship. He could only put all his energy on mental training, which was Kenbunshoku and Haoshoku Haki.
His attainment in Haoshoku Haki had already been revealed when he was in Impel Down. While being bound by seastone handcuffs, he was still able to use Haoshoku Haki to faint the prisoners in Impel Down's sixth level, Infinite Hell, which was enough to show its terror. Such Haoshoku Haki was also at its peak on the sea, completely comparable to Red-Haired Shanks, and even stronger than Whitebeard.
Because there was no battle, Kenbunshoku Haki had also not been revealed, until the battle with Kizaru just now. Before Kizaru made a move, he had already foreseen Kizaru's actions, so he was able to prepare in advance. This kind of prediction was the perception ability that could only be possessed when Kenbunshoku Haki reached a certain level.
This ability was somewhat similar to the sixth sense, but it was also different, because the sixth sense's perception was illusory, and not necessarily accurate, while the actions that his Kenbunshoku Haki predicted would definitely happen. This was actually a kind of observation and judgment, predicting Kizaru's next actions through observation and judgment. It wasn't that mythical, and he couldn't really predict the future.
Akira knew that under the command of the pirate Big Mom, there was a son with very powerful Kenbunshoku Haki, who was the head of the Sweet Commanders. His Kenbunshoku Haki could see the short future. Akira didn't know how he did it, and didn't know if it was true or false.
However, on his own body, Akira was able to predict the future, but it was only for a short time, and what he predicted was only related to him, especially in terms of danger. He had an extraordinary predictive ability, but this was only limited to himself. If it were someone else, he couldn't see anything at all.
After being injured by Akira, Kizaru's expression became serious, and he could no longer see the wretched expression from before, because from this moment, he had begun to treat Akira as an opponent at the same level as him, without any contempt in his heart, and even with great apprehension.
Kizaru was also secretly thinking and vigilant in his heart, "Powerful swordsmanship and abilities, extremely fast speed and attacks, and also has amazing Kenbunshoku Haki. Although Busoshoku Haki hasn't shown much yet, it probably won't be bad either, and he also has Haoshoku Haki. This man is really impeccable."
Because of apprehension, Kizaru didn't make a move immediately, and was thinking about Akira's flaws. From the situation just now, if he fought Akira with all his might, he wouldn't be able to gain any advantages. On the contrary, he would still have to worry about Akira's other abilities. So, he wanted to find Akira's flaws, to see if there was an opportunity to take advantage of.
Kizaru didn't make a move, so Akira naturally didn't make a move either. He originally didn't want to fight Kizaru, because it made him very irritable. Kizaru's speed and abilities made him really unable to give a fatal blow, and if he couldn't defeat him, he would keep clinging to him like a sticky candy. So, among the Navy admirals, Akira hated fighting Kizaru the most.
Seeing that the situation on the battlefield was very unfavorable to his side, Sengoku's expression turned gloomy, and he asked the people behind him in a deep voice, "What's going on? Why haven't the executioners arrived yet? Execute 'Fire Fist' Ace as soon as possible."
Although he couldn't see the problem right now, Sengoku had a bad feeling. If things continued like this, it was very likely that the Whitebeard Pirates would rush to the execution platform. At that time, wanting to execute Ace would no longer be so easy. So, he wanted to execute 'Fire Fist' Ace as quickly as possible. No matter what, executing Ace would be a victory.
"Fleet Admiral, the executioners are preparing, and will be here soon." The Navy soldier below was also sweating profusely.
"Quick, use the fastest speed, and tell them to come over quickly." Sengoku roared.
"Yes, Fleet Admiral!"
Akira suddenly shouted at Marco, who had been knocked down by Garp, "Marco, go cover Pops, let me handle this."
Marco also knew that he had been careless just now, so he replied, "I know what to do, I'll leave the rest to you."
Akira shouted, "Just do as I said just now, let's begin!"
"Okay." Marco quickly headed towards the direction where Whitebeard was.
Also at this time, Whitebeard's body suddenly shook. The injuries and illnesses that had been hidden for many years completely erupted under this high-intensity battle. Akainu's eyes were very sharp, and he saw the flaw at a glance, and then used all his strength, aiming at Whitebeard's body, and smashing his fist over fiercely. He had actually hit Whitebeard head-on.
"Pops!"
The people of the Whitebeard Pirates shouted in alarm when they saw Whitebeard being hit by Akainu. Even Akira's eyes twitched. This was the first time he had seen Whitebeard being hit head-on. However, he also knew that although Whitebeard's strength was terrifying, he was, after all, old. At the age of 72, plus having gone through countless battles, his body had already begun to deteriorate. Not to say that it was riddled with holes, but it wasn't much different. That's why he had exposed a flaw in the battle.
