"Underworld Hound!"
With Sakazuki's furious roar, terrifying heat swept outward. Even space could barely withstand the temperature, and white mist rose from the sea.
The Marine Soldiers standing too close did not even have time to scream before they died at their own Admiral's hands.
Aokiji frowned, feeling that Akainu was treating his subordinates' lives as a joke. With a slight flick of his fingers, he raised an ice wall, separating the Marine Soldiers from the magma.
Only then did the ordinary soldiers recover their senses and hurry out of the range of their attacks.
"Have you flown into a rage out of humiliation?" Swain asked, looking at Akainu.
"Think whatever you like. Soon, you'll be melted into nothing but air," Akainu said coldly.
"Hmph! What shameless boasting!"
Swain drew the Demon Sword from his waist, and chilling Haki immediately swarmed around it like ants drawn to food.
Then Swain muttered something under his breath. Dozens of blue Starburst Formation discs appeared around him, forming an arc as they spun continuously.
He raised his sword, and a surging tide of Conqueror's Haki erupted behind him. Some Marine Soldiers could not withstand its pressure and fainted on the spot.
The Underworld Hound, formed from terrifying heat, stood a hundred meters tall. Akainu leaped into the air between its legs.
It opened its enormous maw and fired a stream of arrows.
"Divine Slaughter Sword!"
Swain's eyes instantly turned red. Haki and killing intent mingled, joining with the sword's overwhelming might.
He resembled a god of slaughter, striking fear into anyone who looked at him.
"Die!" Akainu roared.
The magma arrows cracked explosively as they scraped through the air. Though it was dusk, they still shone as brightly as meteors in the night.
Swain's sword energy swept across the battlefield, cleaving the sea.
