Becoming a Shichibukai
Ye Liangnai placed her hand on the sword. "What do you want to discuss with me?"
Seeing Ye Liangnai's wariness, Aokiji waved his hand, "Well, you don't need to be so nervous!"
He took out a document from his person and tossed it to Ye Liangnai. "This is an invitation to become Shichibukai. We invite you to become the new Shichibukai. What do you say?"
Taking the document, Ye Liangnai looked at the contents written in black and white, and then at the bottom, she saw the appointment of Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Her vigilance relaxed slightly.
"You're inviting me to become Shichibukai?"
Ye Liangnai first felt a dreamlike sensation, then a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips. What a coincidence!
He was just wondering how to make a name for himself, and this opportunity came along!
There's not much difference between defeating Shichibukai and becoming Shichibukai.
"To become Shichibukai?"
Ye Liangnai accepted the document, looked at Aokiji, and her eyes gradually became more fervent. "That's fine, but I have one condition!"
Aokiji's brow furrowed upon hearing this. "What are the conditions?"
"I need Haki cultivation method!"
"Of course, it would be even better if you could fight alongside me!"
Ye Liangnai almost drooled when she saw the Enhancement Points listed on the screen for her battle with Aokiji.
Fighting Fire Fist Ace costs 500,000 Enhancement Points!
One battle with Aokiji, and I got 700,000 Enhancement Points!
"Oh, you want to fight me? And you want Haki cultivation method?"
Aokiji looked at Ye Liangnai with some surprise upon hearing this; this guy's request was a bit strange!
"I'm sorry, I can't give you the method for cultivating Haki, but I think I can fight alongside you!"
"Perfect timing! I'm also somewhat interested in you. The Marshal instructed me to test your strength!"
"So, how do you want to fight?"
Aokiji spoke with a relaxed and calm demeanor.
"Then it's direct combat, of course!"
The moment she finished speaking, Ye Liangnai took a heavy step and rushed towards Aokiji, drawing her sword and unleashing a fierce Sword Qi attack.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
Aokiji neither dodged nor evaded, and was cleaved into several pieces.
But Ye Liangnai felt no joy whatsoever. Watching the Aokiji, cleaved into pieces, turn into ice blocks and then continue to freeze the sea, he shook his head helplessly. "Without Haki, dealing with you Logia-types is really a headache!"
"Fine, I'll fight you with my abilities then!"
Ye Liangnai reluctantly sheathed his long sword, flames erupted from his body, feathers fluttered, and his form slowly changed.
"Whispering sound!"
Finally, with a sharp cry, Ye Liangnai transformed into a huge Fire Phoenix, flapping her wings and swooping down towards the recovering Aokiji.
"Phoenix Fire Feathers!"
Ye Liangnai flapped her wings, and her fiery feathers, carrying intense heat, bombarded Aokiji like cannonballs.
"Zoan- type Mythical Devil Fruit Ability User, how interesting!"
Looking at Ye Liangnai, who had transformed into Fire Phoenix, Aokiji's eyes revealed a hint of interest.
"Freezing Cold Air!"
Faced with the scorching fire feathers that were coming at him, Aokiji unleashed a terrifying burst of cold air, and the fire feathers were instantly frozen and fell to the ground.
The remaining chilling air continued to envelop and assault Ye Liangnai.
Ye Liangnai felt the flames on his body dim down considerably, as a terrifying suppressive force acted on him, causing his muscles to tense up involuntarily.
"As expected of a general, his control over his abilities is exceptionally strong!"
Realizing how easily Aokiji controlled her abilities, Ye Liangnai gained a new understanding of Aokiji's power.
No wonder that even magma, a terrifying substance with a temperature of over a thousand degrees, could be instantly frozen in the original work.
His Phoenix flames were already over 400 degrees Celsius, but even with such a powerful temperature, he was powerless against Aokiji and was completely suppressed.
He immediately took to the air to escape the cold air, but when he looked back at Aokiji, his pupils contracted.
The Aokiji is gone.
"Here you are!"
Ye Liangnai's voice came from above Aokiji. He looked at Ye Liangnai with a lazy expression and touched her with a cold aura.
Ye Liangnai flinched in strong resistance, then spread her fiery wings to block in front of her.
"Crack!"
Ye Liangnai's wings were instantly frozen, and Ye Liangnai felt a terrifying chill.
"Looks like this is the end of it, buddy!"
Aokiji pressed his hand against Ye Liangnai's body; the freezing continued.
"That's the end of it? Not so easy!"
"Phoenix Flames, rise!"
With a Ye Liangnai shout, the temperature of the flames on her body rose sharply, and the ice on her body crackled and shattered.
Even more powerful flames rushed towards Aokiji.
Aokiji's brow twitched, a hint of surprise in his eyes. In Body Flicker Technique, he vanished into thin air.
"It seems there's a reason the Fleet Admiral chose you as one of the Shichibukai; you do have some real strength!"
Aokiji appeared on the ground and looked at Ye Liangnai, who was still diving towards him, and said knowingly.
"Phoenix Meteor Kill!"
Ye Liangnai's aura reached its peak, and the high temperature made the air blurry and distorted.
"Ice Cube - Exploding Pheasant Beak!"
Facing Ye Liangnai was falling like a meteorite, Aokiji waved his hand and unleashed a large ice bird, fire colliding with ice.
"Bang!"
The air exploded violently, and a powerful shockwave burst forth, accompanied by scorching heat that spread outwards, cracking many parts of the thick ice on the sea surface.
"Whispering sound!"
But Aokiji's Ice Bird broke through Ye Liangnai's defenses in an instant, crashing heavily into Ye Liangnai.
"Puff!"
If being hit by Fire Fist Ace's attacks during their previous battle felt like being struck by a galloping horse, then Ye Liangnai now felt as if she had been struck by a meteorite.
The terrifying force caused his bones to crack and shatter.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and a patch of frost froze on his chest.
Even the slightest movement could worsen the injury.
"Cough cough!"
Ye Liangnai made an emergency landing on the ice, coughed twice, clutched her chest, and looked at Aokiji, "As expected of Marine Admiral, I'm still far from your level!"
"You're too kind!"
Upon hearing this, Aokiji lazily scratched his head. "Well then, that's settled!"
"The Shichibukai spot is yours now, buddy. Do a good job! I hope the day I have to personally come and capture you never comes!"
Ye Liangnai grinned upon hearing this. "I believe that day will never come, but of course, I think it would be nice if it did!"
At that moment, the system's voice rang in his mind. "Ding! You engaged in an incomplete battle with Marine Admiral Aokiji, resulting in a reduced reward. You ultimately received 250,000 Enhancement Points!"
Although it's a bit of a pity, it's better to have something than nothing!
