An eruption of freezing cold!
Saint Nusjuro began to shout repeatedly in his mind!
"Satan! Satan! Quickly prepare the Magic Circle to teleport me away! That brat isn't dead, and now he wants to kill me at the exit of the New World!" Saint Nusjuro's voice began to sound urgent!
However, his hands didn't slow down at all!
The contact between the two blades unleashed terrifying power once again!
In no time at all, they arrived at the location where Haku and the others were.
The ice beneath our feet is constantly being broken down and then refreezing!
It goes on and on, without ever stopping.
Several meteorites broke through the clouds and hurtled towards Haku in the sky.
That's Fujitora's ability!
Haku quickly looked up, her eyes blazing as she stared intently at the rapidly falling meteorites.
His figure moved nimbly across the ice, each leap precisely avoiding the meteorite's impact point. Meanwhile, his Zanpakuto continued its fierce clash with Saint Nusjuro.
Saint Nusjuro felt the numbness in his wrist. In his mind, he realized that Saint Saturn was already inscribing a magic circle!
However, this will still take some time!
Saint Nusjuro looked at Haku, a sly glint in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, trying to steady his slightly tired breathing from the continuous fighting, and then said loudly, "Haku, you are indeed a formidable opponent. But do you know? There is a type of person in this world whose status is above all else—they are the Celestial Dragon!"
He paused deliberately, observing Haku's reaction.
Seeing a hint of doubt flash in Haku's eyes, Saint Nusjuro delighted, thinking that Haku was indeed considering something!
Little did Haku know that she was wondering why Saint Nusjuro was bringing this up at such a crucial moment!
There should be no room for reconciliation between him and the World Government! Haku's eyes narrowed slightly; he knew the other party was stalling for time!
Saint Nusjuro, oblivious to Haku's look of utter disbelief, continued, "The Celestial Dragon possess unparalleled power and status; they can control the fate of the entire world. And you, Haku, if you are willing to submit to the Celestial Dragon and become one of them, then you will possess unimaginable resources and power!"
His words were full of temptation and threats, trying to sway Haku. However, Haku just looked at him coldly, as if she was not moved by his words.
Seeing Saint Nusjuro felt a growing anxiety. He knew he had to buy time as quickly as possible and wait for Satan to finish inscribing the Magic Circle.
So, he continued, "Kate, you have to understand that this world is cruel and realistic. Only with power and status can you truly control your own destiny. Becoming a member of the Celestial Dragons, you will no longer be an ordinary pirate, but an existence that can change the structure of the world!"
His words were filled with passion and fervor, as if he could already see Haku's glorious Future as Celestial Dragon. However, Haku merely smiled faintly and said, "Saint Nusjuro, do you think I'll be swayed by your sweet talk? What I seek is freedom and power, not to be bound by the rules of the Celestial Dragon."
"And you're trying to stall me? You must still be dreaming!"
Saint Nusjuro's heart sank; he knew his plan had failed.
Haku seized the moment Saint Nusjuro was not paying attention, and he flashed in front of him, kicking him so hard that his chest caved in!
Of course, that's not all!
Haku lunged forward, intending to seize the opportunity to kill her opponent, but just then, an energy source from afar appeared and tried to pull Saint Nusjuro away!
"Leaving won't be that easy!"
"Domain Expansion!"
Sensing that he was about to be Saint Nusjuro away, Haku's eyes transformed into six pupils, and he began to disrupt the surrounding space!
Unfortunately, there was another Admiral present!
Seeing that Haku was standing still, Fujitora decisively applied Gravity Field to Haku's head, directly interrupting Haku's ability to slightly interfere with space with her Six Eyes!
Haku snorted coldly! She hurled the Hyōrinmaru in her hand directly at Saint Nusjuro!
Although Saint Nusjuro's chest caved in after being kicked by Haku, he still had enough strength to block the Hyōrinmaru that Haku threw with his weapon!
The blocked Hyōrinmaru fell to the ground and reverted to its ordinary Zanpakuto.
Saint Nusjuro's figure also disappeared from the spot, it seems that the teleportation was successful!
Haku walked up to Hyōrinmaru and sheathed it. He murmured, "Based on speculation, the one capable of teleporting people should be Saint Saturn. I hope this generous gift of mine will surprise you!"
After saying that, Haku gave Fujitora a cold look, and his figure began to disappear until Fujitora could no longer sense Haku's presence through his Observation Haki!
"Sigh! This battle is really something!" Fujitora sheathed his Walking Stick Sword.
A Vice Admiral jumped off one of the warships and ran up to Fujitora, saying, "Mr. Issho, Akainu Fleet Admiral wants you to return to New Marineford as soon as possible!"
Fujitora nodded and said, "I understand!"
Fujitora jabbed the ice twice with his scabbard, and the ice shattered due to gravity. The warships no longer needed to force their way through the ice to return to New Marineford!
Bullet Island! Located within a secret experimental base!
As Saint Nusjuro was successfully teleported into the base, a large amount of cold air erupted from his Saint Nusjuro!
The cold air spread rapidly, drastically lowering the temperature of the entire experimental base, making it feel as if one had instantly entered an ice cellar.
The other person in the laboratory was Saint Saturn himself.
He hadn't expected that the teleported Saint Nusjuro carried such terrifying cold energy; in just a moment, he too was frozen in place and unable to move!
The cold air continued to rage across Egghead Island! Soon, the entire Bullet Island was transformed into a world of ice and snow!
After everything calmed down, Vegapunk on Bullet Island led his Clones toward the location where the cold air had erupted!
Deep within Bullet Island, amidst snow-covered ruins, Vegapunk and his Clones finally arrived at the source of the cold eruption.
What they saw was a completely frozen Saint Saturn and Saint Nusjuro, both encased in thick ice, like two ice sculptures.
Vegapunk stared in astonishment at the sight before him; he had never witnessed such powerful cold. He immediately began checking the two men's vital signs and found that although their breathing was weak, they were fortunately still alive.
"What on earth is going on?" Vegapunk frowned and turned to ask his Clones assistants.
