"How long has that guy been like this?"
Nami, wearing a thick down jacket, walked out of the cabin, raised his head and looked at the huge Ice Barrier in the distance ahead, as well as the islands formed in the ultra-low temperature environment.
Yes!
As Ice-Ice Fruit remained in the awakened state, Aokiji was the center, and it continued to release biting cold air to the surroundings. Eventually, a large amount of seawater was completely frozen, forming a large island entirely composed of Solid Ice.
Even the magnetic needle has reacted here.
"It's been almost thirteen hours. You're right! Those who can make a name for themselves in New World are indeed a bunch of monsters." Nojiko sighed with a lingering fear.
In her eyes, whether it is her own captain, Kaido who is also one of Four Emperors, or the Marine Admiral in front of her, they are all like walking Scourge.
Once you get a little more serious, you will release terrifying destructive power that changes the color of the world.
"Hehe! Look at it, at least if we don't compare with those monsters, we are still very strong." Nami smiled and hugged her sister's neck from behind to comfort her.
"Don't worry, I'm not a fool. By the way, didn't you say you were going to bed? Why are you up again?" Nojiko looked at his sister up and down with a very confused expression on his face.
Nami shrugged his shoulders. "It's nothing, I just don't want to miss such a rare and spectacular sight. After all, this is an Iceland created out of thin air in the middle of the sea."
Just when Nojiko opened his mouth and was about to say something more, Ice Barrier suddenly released a large amount of white debris to the outside world without warning, blocking his vision just like Blizzard.
"Aokiji can't hold it anymore!"
Kuro, who possesses extremely powerful Observation Haki, immediately pushed up his glasses with his palms and pursed his lips with a playful smile.
"Captain, do you need me to capture him?" Lucci asked eagerly.
You must know that so far, he has not fought against Marine Admiral level enemies, so he really wants to try it.
"Ice-Ice Fruit's awakened power is too dangerous, I'd better do it myself."
Allen refused Lucci's request without thinking, and his whole body turned into a flash of lightning and passed directly through the island covered by broken ice.
As a result, as soon as he arrived at the edge of the original barrier, he saw that Aokiji had ended his elemental form and was squatting on the ground, breathing heavily. He looked extremely tired.
Obviously, maintaining this ultra-low temperature barrier that Infinity is close to Absolute Zero is an extremely heavy burden even for him.
Normally, a strong person like Marine Admiral would not exhaust his energy even if he fought the enemy for days and nights.
But now, in just a dozen hours, Aokiji is running out of gas.
It can be seen that the ultra-low temperature barrier after Ice-Ice Fruit's awakening is indeed terrifying, but the price paid is also extremely shocking.
"Hey! I think you should already know your ending, right?" Allen slowly landed from mid-air, his whole body exuding amazing electric light.
"Ah! From the moment I chose to stay, I knew my fate. What I didn't expect was that this trump card actually failed to cause any harm to you." Kuzan sat down on the ground, with a look of regret on his face.
He didn't choose to run away!
Because in front of Allen, who has the dual abilities of Rumble-Rumble Fruit and Slow-Slow Fruit, not even Kizaru can escape, let alone himself.
"No! In fact, you almost succeeded. Infinity is close to Absolute Zero's ultra-low temperature barrier! I didn't expect that you could actually develop one of the strongest abilities in physics. If I hadn't been alert enough and coupled with the speed of lightning, you might have had the chance to completely freeze me in place." Allen did not hesitate to praise him.
As a person who knows something about thermodynamics, he is very aware of how terrifying this barrier of Infinity is close to Absolute Zero.
Everything within the barrier, whether biological or material, will stop all activities, and even time will become meaningless.
"Is this a compliment?" Kuzan laughed at himself.
Allen shook his head slightly. "No, I am just stating a fact. Do you know? You are the first person in this world who has truly threatened my life, although only a little bit. So I decided to give you a chance to choose. Hand over Ice-Ice Fruit, and then join my team..."
"Otherwise? Kill me?"
Kuzan struggled to stand up from the ice, with no fear of death in his eyes.
"Kill you? Haha, you haven't seen anything more terrifying than death, right?" Allen activated the power of Soul-Soul Fruit, and a large amount of milky white translucent liquid emerged from his hand again. "In front of me who controls the power of the soul, death is never the end, but only the beginning. For example, I can extract your soul, completely wash away all memories, retain only the most basic fighting instinct, and then stuff it back into the body to make a puppet that obeys orders."
"What?!"
Kuzan's face changed instantly when he heard these words.
He could accept being killed, but he could never accept being turned into a battle puppet without self-awareness.
"It depends on your choice! Maybe you won't believe it, but I am actually a person who respects life very much and does not want to use such methods. Even after obtaining Soul-Soul Fruit, I did not plunder other people's souls to strengthen myself like Charlotte Linlin. Anyone killed by me Everyone deserves it. What's more, as a general, you should know best that the navy and World Government cannot represent justice. It's time for Celestial Dragons, who has been full of evil, to pay the price for his actions. Come on, join us, start a war, and re-establish a new order."
With that said, Allen stretched out his right hand to send a clear invitation to Marine Admiral.
If it were Akainu or Kizaru, he would never do this because it would be meaningless.
But Aokiji is different. The justice of the navy was shaken as early as when Ohara was destroyed.
"Hahahaha! It's unbelievable! You, One Piece, actually have the guts to invite me, Marine Admiral, to join. But I'm curious, what exactly do you mean by the new order?" Kuzan asked while laughing and narrowing his eyes.
"It's simple! Demon Pirates has reached an agreement with the Revolutionary Army, because I came to kill all Celestial Dragons and overthrow World Government, and they are responsible for re-establishing the chaos. Order. If you don't believe it, we can go to Alabasta to see what the country under the Revolutionary Army is like. Of course, before that, you must hand over Ice-Ice Fruit."
In order to dispel the other party's concerns, Allen took the initiative to make a suggestion.
As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is true.
As long as Revolutionary Army can show better capabilities than World Government in governance, then the scales in Aokiji's heart will naturally tilt.
With the addition of this general, it will naturally be much easier to instigate other generals in the navy.
