What a Good Dog You Are, Sakazuki

Huo Guang shot into the sky, and Saul destroyed two of the ten warships, but it still could not prevent Ohara from being reduced to ashes.

"Lieutenant General Sakazuki, for some reason, Lieutenant General Kuzan has temporarily lost contact!"

"Tch, that lazy guy, ignore him. No one on this island could possibly be his match..."

As soon as he finished speaking, azure flames, carrying an overwhelming aura, pressed down on all directions. A pitch-black figure, covered in layers of ice, crashed straight into three warships.

"Ice Time!"

In an instant, the entire sea froze, and Kuma raging fire spread everywhere. A halo of cold air rose up, and countless ice surfaces blocked the figures in the distance.

"Who? Who's in Ohara?!"

"Wait, isn't that Lieutenant Kuzan? What's going on? Who could have given Kuzan to..."

"I've never heard of such a being in the outer seas. Who could it be?!"

The gale continued, and the naval warships near the coast struggled to stay afloat, like toy boats being battered by the waves.

Ice Age!

The ice layer, as cold and icy as ancient ice, completely froze the entire nearshore area, bringing the warships that were rocking in the wind and waves to a stop.

"Sakazuki, make your move! The opponent is...!"

Rumble!

The battlefield, shrouded in smoke, transformed into towering, dark clouds, with streaks of azure Lightning Serpent dancing wildly. Sakazuki, his face grim, leaped from the warship and landed in Ohara.

"Who dares to obstruct the Buster Call?!"

"I thought it was Sengoku or Garp leading the team, but it turns out to be two rookie vice admirals from the Navy. This aura is... magma. The other Logia Ability User, that must be you."

Flames swept across, opening up a passage deep into the depths like a tidal wave. The pure white feathers fluttered in the wind, causing Sakazuki's pupils to shrink and his fists to clench silently.

"Four Emperors, Uchiha Huayue, what are you doing in Ohara? Answer me!"

"You? Kid, the weak have no right to hear answers from the strong. But you really are a good dog, willing to sacrifice innocent people for your master..."

Huayue's lips curled up, and the words she uttered were completely contrary to her gentle appearance, full of aggression.

"Inugami Guren!"

Dark red magma boiled and coalesced into the head of a ferocious canine, which attacked with the power of a volcanic eruption, striking Uchiha Huayue in the face.

"Stop pointing fingers at other people's sense of justice. How could you possibly understand the suffering of those innocent civilians tormented by pirates!"

Lava erupted, mingling with the flames that had consumed Ohara. As the flames subsided slightly, Sakazuki's pupils constricted.

"Binding Spell Sixty-Two - Hundred-Step Railing!"

hiss hiss hiss...

A series of azure beams of light pierced through Sakazuki's limbs and vital points. When the light faded, a deep sense of powerlessness filled his entire body.

"Seastone, you bastard!"

"Don't make a sound. Logia blood samples are very rare and need to be handled with care."

Visibly, his blood gradually seeped into the syringe. Sakazuki's expression changed drastically, and he looked into the distance with difficulty.

A series of azure lightning bolts coiled around the bodies of the numerous marines, most of whom had already fainted. Only Kuzan remained standing in place.

Even so, the swirling Lightning Serpent made it difficult for him to move, and he couldn't even Elementalization.

"This is the strongest, this is the Four Emperors! You bastard, you can actually wrap Conqueror's Haki around someone and control lightning!"

"Why, why did you, you bastard, come to Ohara? You came here for these historians too, answer me?!"

After a moment of silence, Huayue smiled without saying a word, carefully put away Sakazuki's blood sample, and then looked at the now worthless experimental specimen in front of her.

"Go back and tell the Five Elders that I have taken all the Poneglyph and knowledge of Ohara with me. If you have any further questions, just ask the Five Elders!"

"Storm Kick - White Thunder..."

The pale lightning, imbued with terrifying Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, and the Haki fluctuations swirling around his toes, made Sakazuki feel an intense sense of life-or-death crisis.

Just then, Kuzan, struggling, barely managed to raise his fingertips, his eyes shifting.

"Ice Time!"

A sudden burst of icy air, followed by a powerful kick that ripped through the ice and struck Sakazuki squarely. Countless terrifying bolts of blue and purple lightning shattered Sakazuki's limbs and bones, and his blood completely stained the remaining ice red.

"Run! We're no match for him, escape..."

Ice walls rose layer by layer, and strands of azure ice pulled out numerous naval officers and soldiers, who quickly boarded the nearest World Government ships and sailed away into the distance.

Spandine awoke from his dazed state, he was stunned to find Lieutenant General Sakazuki covered in blood, critically wounded and on the verge of death.

Lieutenant General Kuzan collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted, with blood streaming from his abdomen, clearly indicating that his internal organs had been injured.

"Mr. Kuzan, Mr. Sakazuki, hello, hello, what's going on? Who did this?!"

"Start the ship now, full speed ahead to Mariejois! Our opponent is Four Emperors, the strongest of the Four Emperors, Uchiha Huayue! Run for your lives, or we'll all die in Ohara!"

Upon hearing this, Spandine a cardiac arrest and collapsed to the ground, screaming.

"Four Emperors! Quickly call the Five Elders and have my son inherit my position..."

The World Government officials, awakened by the cold, quickly sailed away into the distance, while the medics hastily took out all available medical supplies. Just as they were about to bandage the two lieutenant generals, a white light suddenly flashed in the distance.

"Konoha Style: White Fang!"

A flash of white light, a thousand sharp blades, and terrifying sword energy tore apart the World Government's ships, detonating the cannons and ammunition on board.

Rumble!

A mushroom cloud rose, the Kusanagi Sword was sheathed, and with a gust of wind, the flames of war that had swept through Ohara dissipated.

On the edge of the coast, Saul, covered in burns and on the verge of death, turned his head away with a complex expression.

"I..."

"Are you still alive? Do you need treatment?"

Huayue held the hilt of her sword, looked around at the surrounding fields, and lamented the ruthlessness of war.

"The books of Ohara, according to the ideas of the archaeologists here, are stored in the lake of Ohara. I will keep the copies of those books, and you will be in charge of handling the originals."

"After you finish salvaging it, I will stay here for a while. No navy or World Government will come to cause trouble."

Struggling to his feet, Saul shook his head and staggered toward the bamboo raft in the distance.

"Thank you, Four Emperors..."

The bamboo raft gradually drifted into the distance, leading to the New World of Elbaf. Huayue smiled and tossed the blood samples from the two test tubes into the air.

The next second, branches growing and spreading from deep underground swallowed it whole.

On a vast, azure sea, on a huge ice sheet, numerous World Government officials, holding wooden planks, rowed out into the distance.

On the ice, Kuzan shook his head repeatedly, freezing his and Sakazuki's wounds before silently taking out Den Den Mushi.

"Moshi moshi, Fleet Admiral Sengoku... Ah, the entire warship is destroyed, Sakazuki and I are seriously injured, and the books? He packed them all up and took them away. The Four Emperors are truly terrifying!"
