Gods Are Unaffected! The Egalitarian
To be honest, Ian is also a bit unsure what to do with these navy personnel.
Leaving aside Vice Admiral Tsuru, Momousagi Gion's strength is by no means weak.
Fifteen years later, Momousagi, the candidate for Admiral, would at least possess power on par with, or even stronger than, Marco Jin.
So fifteen years ago, her strength couldn't have been much weaker than Uncle Jin and the others; she was undoubtedly at the disaster level.
With the addition of Vice Admiral Tsuru, who is likely even stronger than the Disaster, the Navy's combat strength is honestly somewhat delicate.
You said we need to be able to fight, but the other side seems really strong.
But to say you can't fight them, it seems like you could actually try to touch them.
Another question is, what should you do after you win the game?
Ian wasn't alone; he had the Beasts Pirates behind him, so he also considered the group's interests.
This old woman's prestige within the Navy is probably not much less than that of Garp Sengoku; she guides the Navy forward with her wisdom.
If Vice Admiral Tsuru were to be eliminated, how would the Navy react?
It's likely that Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr, who have been comrades-in-arms for decades, will be parachuted into Wano Country soon.
What should we do then?
Even if the Beasts Pirates can escape, what about Wano Country?
All that hard-earned foundation, and the Pluton buried in Wano Country —are you just going to throw it all away?
Therefore, Ian felt that fighting was acceptable, but only a little.
Pirate tradition: stop when you've reached your limit.
"Judge,"
Ian said, "Turn around and prepare to leave."
"Huh?"
Judge paused for a moment, "Not fighting?"
"Leave the battle to us."
Ian said, "We'll stop them. You can leave now; we'll catch up soon."
Doflamingo instantly understood what Ian meant. "Furfurfur, then so be it."
"Understood!"
Judge knew he shouldn't hesitate now, so he nodded slightly and quickly returned.
Ian looked at the navy again.
Let's try to save face for both sides.
He didn't believe the Navy would dare to attack him and Doflamingo so easily.
In the original work, Doflamingo bossed the government around and enjoyed blackmailing them. Now, the Navy would dare to just kill Doflamingo outright?
"That's enough of the nonsense."
Ian spoke with a smile.
Having achieved his goal, Ian was too lazy to waste his breath arguing with these self- Brain Control guys.
Let them believe they are upholding justice.
As I said before, respect is key.
"Bring it on!"
Gion drew her beloved sword Konpira.
She desperately wants a fight to help her forget her inner turmoil.
"Yamato! Freeze them!"
Ian gave the order.
"Knew!"
The little girl leaped into the air, and in that instant, white fur sprouted from her body, while thick mist swirled around the white spiked club in her hand.
"Phantom Blade!!"
With a powerful flick, a massive white slash hurtled down.
Gion, a great swordsman, countered with a Flying Slash cleaved Yamato's icy aura in two.
However, Yamato's attack was not a slash; the white mist continued to fall without ceasing.
In the next instant, the surface of these warships was covered with a layer of frost, and many of the sailors were directly draped in a layer of ice.
Even more astonishing was the sea; the area where these warships were located had been completely frozen, turning into a solid ice field.
"That brat!"
Gion was astonished at the sight, "I thought only Senior Kuzan could do that."
"Still a long way off."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said calmly, "However, this is for the best."
Having a battlefield isn't all bad.
"Let's go then!"
Gion launched herself from the warship, leaping through the air like a phantom as she pounced towards Ian.
"Thunder Bagua!"
However, a figure sprang up, and a white spiked club suddenly came hurtling towards him.
Gion parried with his sword.
With a loud bang, Gion floated lightly to the ground.
She looked at the blade of her beloved knife, which was covered with a layer of ice.
Ahead, the white-haired girl chuckled, "Your opponent is me!"
"Kaido's daughter?"
Gion frowned slightly.
Although equally extraordinary, this girl is far inferior to Ian of the Scorched Sky.
"I am Yamato!"
Yamato emphasized.
"Doflamingo, go help Yamato."
Ian said, "Take everyone with you!"
Yamato could never possibly defeat Gion.
Or rather, even with Doflamingo added, they still couldn't win.
Therefore, everyone needs to join in.
"Everyone?"
Doflamingo clicked his tongue in surprise, "And what about you?"
"Leave the rest of them to me."
Ian launched himself into the air, his body engulfed in flames the next instant, and then, a golden winged god emerged, hurtling straight toward the Marine warship.
"Am I the target?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru looked up at Ian, who was falling in a blazing inferno, and it was as if the sun had descended from the sky.
She glanced at the group of pirates jumping down from the snail's head. "Or rather, us?"
"Don't blame me for not respecting the elderly and caring for the young, Granny Tsuru!"
The violent aura suddenly crashed down, instantly causing a large number of sailors on several warships to foam at the mouth and faint.
Vice Admiral Tsuru He frowned.
Her fleet was entirely composed of female naval personnel.
"Let me teach this brat who doesn't know how to respect women a lesson."
Vice Admiral Tsuru sprang into the air with astonishing speed; in the blink of an eye, his hand was already reaching out towards Ian.
True respect means treating everyone equally!
Ian is a true feminist; he will never tolerate the idea that women are inferior to men and therefore deserve special privileges!
"Divine Flame Cannon!"
Blazing flames roared forth.
However, Vice Admiral Tsuru reacted even faster, bouncing through the air and easily dodging the attack.
The Observation Haki and observe is quite astonishing.
Ian flapped his wings and took flight, creating distance. The flames in his left and right hands merged into one, "Winged Dragon's Blazing Flame!"
A massive fireball crashed down on them.
Vice Admiral Tsuru He frowned.
That wretched brat! If she gets out of the way, the warships below will be in trouble.
So, Vice Admiral Tsuru extended his hand.
The palm, already covered with many wrinkles, touched the falling fireball.
Then.
"Ah?"
Ian exclaimed, "This works?"
The round, full fireball he hurled down instantly shrank, transforming into a circular golden curtain.
What's even stranger is that, despite being flames, they've become somewhat damp.
"Your fire is as filthy as your heart; both need to be cleansed."
Vice Admiral Tsuru swung the flaming blanket back at Ian.
Tsk.
That's a bit unreasonable.
Can you even wash away flames by Wash-Wash Fruit?
The Paramecia truly produces all sorts of bizarre abilities.
Below, on the ice, the battle to besiege Gion has also reached a stalemate.
Strictly speaking, no one could directly withstand Gion's sword.
The difference in their Haki presence was too great; even Doflamingo couldn't compare. If it weren't for his quick reflexes, he would have been torn open by a single probing attack.
Except for Yamato.
Yamato's Haki is certainly far inferior to Doflamingo's.
But she has Kenjiro Two.
A top-tier Great Grade Sword!
Besides amplifying her freezing abilities, its own strength is also top-tier, exceeding the hardness of Seastone, making it perfectly capable of going toe-to-toe with Gion.
Thus, the battle here became a situation where Yamato was at the forefront, constantly engaging Gion head-on, while the others provided support from the sides.
Doflamingo brandished his silk threads, Jack launched occasional charges, Black Maria spat out spider silk, Diamante threw darts, Trebol flicked his nose, Gladius threw bombs, and those lacking ranged attacks like Machvista used guns.
"You bastard!!"
Gion was tireless in his efforts.
Although she was very strong, she was still having a headache facing so many people attacking at the same time.
She's not like Ian who can easily cause a scene.
Ian breathed a sigh of relief Ian noticing the situation.
As long as you can hold on, that's good.
With a quick glance out of the corner of my eye, I could see the Germa Kingdom gradually receding into the distance.
Let's delay a little longer.
Ian thought.
What are you still looking around for?
Vice Admiral Tsuru Crane arrived, treading on the air.
Ian unleashed several bursts of fire, but the old woman washed them all away completely.
"You absolutely mustn't touch that."
As Ian said this, he withdrew and stepped back.
but.
"Air purging"
Vice Admiral Tsuru suddenly clapped his hands together.
Ian suddenly realized that the air around him was distorted, and an invisible force was curling it up. Of course, he himself, who was in this air, was also curled up.
The airflow is so turbulent, I can't even flap my wings!
"This works? You can wash the air?"
He watched helplessly as Vice Admiral Tsuru charged forward, and could only desperately throw punches, shouting, "Winged Dragon's Iron Fist!"
Vice Admiral Tsuru once again displayed his extraordinary Observation Haki, dodging Ian's attack by turning his body to the side, and then placing his hand on Ian's arm.
"It's over."
The Navy's chief of staff said calmly.
When a living being is attacked by the Wash-Wash Fruit's power, it will not die immediately, but it will lose its power.
"Yes, it's over."
Vice Admiral Tsuru's hand was suddenly grabbed.
He was grabbed by a hand made of raging flames.
"Winged Dragon's Fist of Destruction!"
A scarlet fist suddenly slammed into Vice Admiral Tsuru's abdomen.
Gender Equality Fist!
