The faint sound was especially distinct in the silent square, and many people turned their gazes toward the unconscious Kurozumi Orochi.
Then, in the next moment, everyone present's expressions shifted slightly. Those powerful figures with future-sight Observation Haki seemed to sense something, and their faces changed drastically.
"That idiot! He actually detonated the explosives buried underground? If the Ancient Weapon gets destroyed, I definitely won't let you off!" Kaido's expression changed as well. He knew Sukiyaki had buried explosives beneath the Flower Capital, intending to destroy the Ancient Weapon outright!
That bastard Kurozumi Orochi could not even withstand Conqueror's Haki. When he fell, he had accidentally pressed the button...
Kaido wanted nothing more than to kill that useless fool!
As for the ordinary people above the Flower Capital, Kaido did not care about them at all. What worried him more was whether Ancient Weapon Pluto would be destroyed!
And besides, mere bombs did not pose much of a threat to him. He was not worried about being blown to death here...
More importantly, this was Ancient Weapon Pluto!
"Not good, a bomb has been detonated!" Aokiji's expression suddenly darkened. Could the Ancient Weapon be buried beneath this island?
But... there were still countless ordinary civilians on the island!
Although the Navy had come for the Ancient Weapon, they did not want to see too many civilian casualties!
He did not know what had happened here. He only assumed that Kaido had gone completely mad, willing to disregard the lives of the island's civilians just to uncover the Ancient Weapon's location!
"Ice Age!" Aokiji took a deep breath and pressed both hands to the ground. Cold air surged forth as he tried to freeze the Flower Capital outright, reducing the explosion's power to its lowest possible level!
Endless waves of ice
