The Shichibukai's Choice
"Is this a signal to start a war?" Roy clapped his hands with a smile, and the fourteen escaped convicts from Impel Down 6 jumped from the execution platform onto the ice, appearing behind Roy.
"If this is all the confidence you have, you might as well die here!" Sengoku's words were now filled with a strong murderous aura.
"Foo, foo, foo, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, please allow me to join this just war as well."
"Huh? Doflamingo, I didn't expect you to make such a correct choice." Sengoku was quite surprised, and the lines on his face softened slightly, until Doflamingo walked straight past him and stood behind Roy, and his face instantly turned ashen.
Sengoku, Black Face 1.
Do you know what you're doing?
"Of course I know what justice is. The victor is justice, so I will always stand on the side of justice!"
"The Shichibukai are indeed unreliable." Sengoku cursed under his breath, then looked at the others. "So, what are your choices in this war?"
Jinbe walked silently behind Roy, making his stance clear.
The Sengoku period had a dark complexion, number 10.
Hawkeye left the battlefield without looking back, saying, "I only agreed to help you deal with the Whitebeard Pirates; Nightmare was not included in the agreement."
The Sengoku period had a dark complexion of 100.
Moria hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and stood behind Roy.
The Sengoku period had a dark complexion of 100.
"Phew, thank goodness, at least I can still keep a fig leaf." Sengoku cast a hopeful glance at the Pirate Empress, but Hancock kept her head down and remained silent, which gave him a vague sense of foreboding.
In truth, Hancock was quite conflicted. Three days ago, she would have sided with the Navy without a second thought, since the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
However, the fear left by Roy's finger strike was so profound that she dared not oppose him, and did not even have the courage to look him in the eye.
Moreover, Roy's powerful sword strike that killed Whitebeard filled her with deep fear, as if she could see Luffy being cleaved in two by a single sword. She couldn't help but make up her mind that when she returned this time, she would try to persuade Luffy to let go of his hatred, otherwise he would definitely die.
Seeing Hancock leave with her head down, Sengoku nearly coughed up blood. He could barely understand others doing this, but Hancock, just three days ago she seemed to be at odds with Nightmare, and was nearly killed by it before the Navy saved her. And now she's abandoning the Navy.
Sengoku, Black Face 1006.
Almost every navy officer who witnessed this scene felt ashamed.
Of the Shichibukai, Blackbeard has disappeared, Nightmare has become the main enemy, Doflamingo and his two companions have defected, and Hawkeye and his companion remain uninvolved.
In the end, not a single one of the Shichibukai were their allies, stood by their side. How little they had faith in their Navy!
"Hmph, you bunch of bastards, I'll make you realize just how wrong your choice was!" Sengoku roared in fury, waving his hand. "Everyone, launch a general attack!"
At his command, Garp, Sengoku, Drake, Chaton charged forward and engaged Roy in a fierce battle.
Momousagi sought out Shiryu, who was also a top-tier Great Sword Master. Although she knew she was no match for Nightmare, she was still somewhat confident in facing Shiryu.
Doflamingo originally intended to use the same trick again, manipulating the Navy to kill each other, but he found that Vice Admiral Tsuru of the Navy had already stood in front of him, and his hunched body had straightened up a bit. "It seems that the unfinished manhunt from many years ago can be brought to a perfect end today."
"Fufufufu, Vice Admiral Tsuru, don't always judge people by past standards, or you'll suffer a great loss!" Doflamingo smiled, placing his hand on the ice. The ice seemed to come alive, twisting and swirling as it rushed towards Vice Admiral Tsuru's location.
However, when those tentacle-like ice spikes approached Vice Admiral Tsuru's body, they seemed to have suddenly lost all their strength, drooping listlessly onto the ice.
"Foohoo, even the lines I control after my Devil Fruit Devil Fruit Awakening can be cleansed of their killing intent. That's truly terrifying. No wonder you're a veteran from the same era as Vice Admiral Garp and Fleet Admiral Sengoku Vice Admiral Garp."
"Sigh, the only way to purify the soul of a bad child like you is to cleanse your soul."
On the other side, former Marine Headquarters Admiral Black Arm Zephyr faced off against Knight of the Sea Jinbe and Gecko Moria.
"Hmph, the so-called Shichibukai is a flawed existence. Now let me end you and make up for the regrets of the past!" Zephyr swung his huge mechanical arm, Crusher, and smashed it onto the ice in front of Jinbe and Moria with an aura of annihilation.
"Not good, run!" Jinbe and Moria knew that pure strength was no match for the monster in front of them who had become Marine Admiral solely through Body Technique, so they hurriedly fled their original location.
The ice layer cracked rapidly, spreading out like a spider, and surging waves flew out of the cracked ice to the surface of the sea.
Jinbe didn't care and took the initiative to jump into the sea to take advantage of his Fish-Man abilities. However, Moria's short legs couldn't keep up with the speed at which the ice was breaking. Seeing that he was about to fall into the sea, he hurriedly used his Shadow Warrior ability to instantly switch positions with his shadow, finally avoiding the embarrassing situation of the Devil Fruit user falling into the sea.
"As expected of Marine Admiral, his strength is far beyond what ordinary Marine Vice Admiral can match!" Jinbe and Moria became more vigilant, dodging Zephyr's attacks while quickly launching a counterattack.
"Shadow Horn Spear!"
"Fish-Man Karate Seven Thousand Tile Roundhouse Kick!"
Faced with the attacks of two Shichibukai, Zephyr simply held the Crusher in front of him and easily blocked the enemy's attacks.
Fish-Man Race in the sea is a nemesis to most Devil Fruit users, but it's somewhat ineffective against a pure Body Technique powerhouse like Zephyr. Moria, since his defeat by Kaido, has been in a slump, with almost all his strength coming from dealing with zombies, making him even less comparable to a powerhouse like Zephyr.
This caused the two Shichibukai to fall into a complete disadvantage from the very beginning in the battle where they besieged the former Marine Admiral.
"Crush it!"
Zephyr's massive Mechanical Crusher once again bombarded the ice plains, and the shattered ice crystal fragments unleashed a power comparable to n under the impact of the powerful kinetic energy.
Bang!
Moria's massive body was blasted hundreds of meters away, landing on the ice in a sorry state. His body was riddled with bullet holes, blood gushing out. He struggled to get up, but the waiting navy soldiers swarmed forward and captured him with Sea Stone Handcuffs.
"Hahahaha, are Shichibukai trash like you? You couldn't even detect the Seastone Bullets mixed in with those broken ice pieces. I can't believe that trash like you could have escaped from Kaido back then."
"What a piece of trash!" Even Jinbe couldn't help but curse inwardly. Had this guy forgotten how to fight?
Knowing the situation was unfavorable, Jinbe simply lay in ambush beneath the surface of the sea, occasionally surfacing to launch surprise attacks and harass the enemy. Zephyr was overwhelmed by the disturbance, but ultimately, with the restraint of reason, he did not rashly enter the enemy's territory. Seeing this, Aokiji lazily placed his hand on the sea surface.
Ice Age!
Jinbe froze the seabed, and two more of the Shichibukai were killed. 11
