As the tip of the knife pressed down, the red color in Zunesha's eyes quickly disappeared, and his eyes darkened accordingly.
Immediately afterwards, a respectful voice echoed clearly throughout the world.
"Yes, Lord Marshal!"
As the words echoed, Zunesha slowly bent his knees and knelt down facing Akira.
As Zunesha's huge body knelt down, Zou, who was sitting on Zunesha's back, also "fell" from a high altitude. As the seawater poured in from all directions, Zou became a real island.
"Lord Marshal completely surrendered to Zunesha!"
"This... this is awesome!"
Looking at the Zou that came into view, as well as the dense forest and looming houses and buildings on the island, the sudden exclamation of Yamato drew the attention of everyone present.
Equally shocked was Denjiro who had been silent.
Because in their memory, Zunesha has never been conquered by anyone for hundreds of years. Even Roger Pirates back then, or Yonko later, not only never made Zunesha surrender, but even just communicating with it was very difficult.
However, at this time, this Navy Marshal not only communicated smoothly with Zunesha, but also used almost invincible strength to make Zunesha bow down in the simplest and crudest way. Zou, who was on Zunesha's back, was truly surrounded by sea water for the first time in hundreds of years.
It was also at this moment that Denjiro no longer had any extra thoughts in his heart.
You know, even if he was sent to Onigashima to participate in the construction of Marine Base, there was still a ray of luck in his heart, and he placed his hope on Kin'emon and Kozuki Momonosuke who would return through time and space.
But when he saw Zunesha, who had been walking around New World for hundreds of years and no one had ever been able to surrender, kneeling down facing Akira, all his illusions and hopes were shattered in an instant.
On Zou, Nekomamushi and others located at Whale Forest flashed out immediately, and then all looked at Zou with wide eyes. The rolling waves of the "coast" were constantly lapping around. He was so shocked that he wanted to make a sound, but it was stuck in his throat. He could only open his eyes and mouth, looking at Zou who was suddenly surrounded by sea water in disbelief.
While Nekomamushi and others rushed out of Whale Forest, another Minks Dukedom king Duke Inuarashi, who had already entered a deep sleep, also rushed in at this time, leading a group of Mokomo Dukedom citizens. Seeing Zou surrounded by sea water, as well as the two warships parked on the opposite sea, they all fell into a brief brain blank.
After a short period of sluggishness, a petite figure jumped out from the Mink Tribe member who followed Duke Inuarashi. He looked blankly at the naval warship opposite and asked with a horrified expression, "Zou... why is it suddenly surrounded by the sea?"
Amidst the sudden exclamation from this Mink Tribe member, Nekomamushi's figure flashed in front of everyone, staring ahead as if facing a formidable enemy.
Duke Inuarashi also flashed over at this time, and stood side by side with Nekomamushi in a fighting stance.
At this moment, a warship parked on the sea suddenly started to move and slowly approached the shore.
After a while, the warship came to the shore. Under the gazes of all Mink Tribe members, who were either horrified or fearful, a figure jumped off the deck of the warship first, and then ignored Nekomamushi and Inuarashi who were facing the enemy in front, and strode forward with elegant steps.
"Jora Ker·Mihawk!"
Looking at the approaching figure with Supreme Grade Sword on his back, Nekomamushi's pupils shrank slightly and said in a deep voice, "Did he attack Zunesha?"
"No way!"
Inuarashi gave an affirmative answer, "Even if he is the world's greatest swordsman, it is impossible for him to cause much harm to Zunesha, let alone to make Zunesha surrender!"
After a slight pause, Duke Inuarashi immediately glanced at another warship that was not approaching. After seeing the figure wearing Navy Marshal's coat on the warship, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Is that...Navy Marshal?"
Hearing the four words Navy Marshal, Nekomamushi's expression changed instantly.
But immediately, his eyes were attracted by another figure.
I saw a group of people jumping off the deck of the docked warship. One of them was Wano Country Shimotsuki Daimyo Denjiro who had once been loyal to Kozuki Oden with them.
Just when Nekomamushi and Inuarashi were surprised that Denjiro was among them, the warship parked on the shore immediately returned and stopped next to the warship in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, Nekomamushi and Inuarashi saw a scene that shocked them beyond measure.
On the deck of the warship that had been parked on the sea in the distance, Akira faced Zunesha, whose body was submerged in the sea due to kneeling down, and raised his hands slightly, and then a calm voice exploded in the ears of Nekomamushi and Inuarashi like thunder.
"Stand up!"
The three irresistible words fell, and Zou, which had just stabilized, began to shake violently again.
Immediately afterwards, Zunesha, which was submerged in the sea, slowly stood up, allowing Zou to escape from the sea and take off again, hanging high on the back of Zunesha.
"!!!!!"
Unexpectedly, Zunesha was really surrendered. Nekomamushi and Inuarashi suddenly aroused huge waves in their hearts, and they looked ahead with their eyes wide open.
Although Zunesha had stood up again at this time, and they could no longer see the warship parked on the opposite sea and the figure who ordered Zunesha, they were still in shock and could not recover for a long time.
Denjiro, who saw the figures of Nekomamushi and Inuarashi from a distance, did not dare to neglect. Before Mihawk could get closer to them, he hurried forward and shouted loudly, "Nekomamushi, Inuarashi!"
Before he finished speaking, Denjiro suddenly accelerated and directly passed Mihawk and came to the front of the two people.
"Denjiro!"
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi spoke almost at the same time, "What on earth is going on?"
"It's a long story!"
Denjiro looked back at Mihawk, Nico Robin, Yamato and others who were about to enter the town, and lowered his voice and said, "I will have a long talk with you when I have time in the future. What you have to do now is to stay as friendly as possible, even if they want to take away the Poneglyph stone tablet from Zunesha!"
"What?"
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi opened their eyes almost at the same time.
At the same time.
Zunesha stood up again and slowly opened his eyes, his eyes clear.
Akira raised his head slightly and directly used Observation Haki to transmit the message: "Zunesha, no matter what mistakes you made in ancient times or who ordered you to walk, it has become a thing of the past. What you have to do next is to only obey my orders!"
"Now, I will give you two orders!"
"One, from now on, you can move freely!"
"There is no need to wait for the so-called Drums of Liberation. Drums of Liberation cannot bring light to this world, but I can."
"Two, from now on, no matter where you go, if you find a pirate ship, don't care who it is, just sink it."
As Akira's order was issued, Zunesha's voice remained respectful. "Yes, Lord Marshal."
