Each of Akainu's attacks was neutralized by the four of them. Although his Magma Fist was terrifyingly powerful, it was meaningless if it missed.
Then Roy's Gravity Suppression down on him.
Akainu could withstand the Gravity Suppression, but the ice beneath his feet cracked under the weight, slowing his movement.
Just then, he saw Roy slash at a Marine Vice Admiral who was also on his side.
That tall Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral couldn't even withstand a single move from Roy.
The long sword slipped from his hand, blood spurted from his chest, and he was sent flying backward, crashing onto the ice, unable to even get up.
Akainu's eyes turned red.
It's not that I feel sorry for my colleagues; it's that I'm angry.
Ten years ago in the Sabaody Archipelago, Roy could have nearly killed him.
If Garp and Zephyr hadn't been there, he might have died in the Sabaody Archipelago.
That was the greatest humiliation of his life.
Now, ten years later, Roy has become even stronger.
He could only be held back by four CP9 guys, watching helplessly as Roy slaughtered indiscriminately on the battlefield.
How could he tolerate it?
"Get out of here!!!"
Akainu's entire body turned into magma, unleashing terrifyingly high temperatures.
The ice beneath his feet melted and evaporated instantly, and the seawater was boiled by the high temperature, bubbling with boiling water.
His right arm was completely transformed into magma, but this time he didn't attack Lucci. Instead, he slammed his Magma Fist into the ice beneath his feet.
" Meteor Volcano - Earth Fissure--!!!"
A huge hole was blown open in the ice.
Lava gushed out of the hole and spread in all directions.
The intense heat melted the surrounding ice, causing seawater to rush in and collide with the magma, producing a hissing sound and sending steam billowing into the sky.
The four members of the CP group were forced to retreat.
As Lucci retreated, a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
Akainu panicked.
An opponent who is in a hurry may attack more fiercely, but is also more likely to expose weaknesses.
" Jabra."
Lucci transmitted his Telekinesis telepathically.
"Find an opportunity to touch him."
Jabra nodded silently.
Akainu burst out of the steam, his magma fists simultaneously blasting towards Lucci.
He was moving faster than before, and the magma was hotter, distorting the surrounding air with intense heat.
Lucci did not take the hit head-on.
His body transformed into a shadow, gliding past the edge of the Magma Fist.
The scorching lava grazed his shoulder, scorching a large patch of his fur, but he didn't even flinch.
" Rokushiki Ogi: Rokuogan!"
Lucci's right fist was brimming with Armament Haki.
The explosive power of the Six Powers combined with the impact of the Shadow Panther was compressed into this one punch, which slammed into Akainu's side.
Akainu's body trembled, and he swung a backhand punch at Lucci's face. The Magma Fist, carrying scorching wind pressure, charred Lucci's bangs.
Lucci dodged by tilting his head, but Akainu's left fist was already waiting in the direction he had dodged.
"Die--!!!"
Akainu's left fist slammed into Lucci's chest.
Lucci was blasted away, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air. A charred dent was burned into his chest by the lava, revealing charred muscles and broken ribs.
But at the very moment Akainu was chasing Lucci, Jabra.
He transformed into a ghostly figure and appeared behind Akainu.
The power of the Rust-Rust Fruit was concentrated to its limit in his hands, and he pressed it directly against Akainu's back.
"Rust and Disintegration!"
Akainu's back was pressed down by Jabra's palm.
The Rust-Rust Fruit's power erupted the moment of contact, Akainu's magma armor on his back began to rapidly oxidize, rust, and crack.
Akainu groaned, the magma on his back unable to properly elementalize due to the rust, revealing his true form.
This was the opportunity Lucci wanted.
He sprang to his feet, smoke still rising from his chest, but his speed did not diminish in the slightest.
The Shadow Panther unleashed his explosive power to the fullest in a short distance, transforming into a black shadow as he appeared before Akainu.
" Rokushiki Ogi - Maximum Wheel - Rokuogan - Shadow Thrust--!!!"
Lucci's sharp claws shot out, covered in Armament Haki, and pierced fiercely into Akainu's chest.
Akainu's body stiffened.
The arm blade pierced through his magma armor and penetrated his physical form.
Magma and blood gushed from the wound at the same time, burning a steaming hole in the ice.
Akainu looked down at the hand that had pierced his chest.
Then he looked up at Lucci.
His eyes held no pain of defeat, only pure, burning rage.
"You're asking for it!!!"
Akainu's right fist turned into magma, and the temperature suddenly soared to an unprecedented level.
The magma's color changed from dark red to a blinding, blazing white, and the surrounding ice vaporized before it even came into contact with this intense heat.
He grabbed Lucci's arm, which was still stuck in his chest, and then raised his other fist high.
" Great Eruption!!!"
The Magma Fist slammed down fiercely towards Lucci's face.
Lucci to pull his hand away and back, but his arm was firmly gripped by Akainu, making it impossible for him to move.
Just as the Magma Fist was about to strike Lucci's face, a dark shadow crashed in from the side.
It's Blueno.
In his Model: Cave Bear, he slammed his shoulder into Akainu's side, causing Akainu to stagger half a step to the side.
The Magma Fist grazed past Lucci's ear, slamming into the ice in the distance and exploding into a small mushroom cloud.
Kaku simultaneously slashed in from the other side, his wolf claws aimed straight for Akainu's eyes.
Akainu had no choice but to release Lucci and cross his arms to block Kaku's attack.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lucci withdrew his hand and retreated, landing on the ice surface more than ten meters away.
His right hand was already deformed from Akainu's grip, his fingers twisted at an eerie angle.
But he expressionlessly snapped his fingers back into place one by one, making a crisp cracking sound.
"Good."
Lucci looked at Akainu, his eyes burning with an unprecedented fighting spirit.
"Again."
Seeing these four guys who were clearly weaker than him but whom he couldn't defeat no matter what he did, Akainu finally flew into a rage.
Leaving aside the anxiety of the naval high command, the blood mist on the ice had not yet dissipated.
Roy's figure kept flashing across the battlefield.
Without any pattern or warning, they always appeared behind a Marine Vice Admiral.
Each appearance was accompanied by a sharp flash of light, followed by a fallen figure.
His expression remained calm, devoid of the excitement of killing or the fanaticism of bloodlust.
There was only a calm, detached feeling, like the aftermath of completing an experiment and recording data.
It was as if he hadn't killed Vice Admiral from the Marine Headquarters, but rather a batch of defective products being processed on an assembly line.
The fifteenth.
Shusui stabbed a Vice Admiral in the back of the neck, the tip of the knife exiting through his throat.
The Vice Admiral didn't even utter a sound; his body twitched once and then remained still.
Roy drew his Shusui, Autumn Water, and with a flick of his wrist, the blood droplets on the blade traced a dark red arc on the ice.
His gaze swept across the battlefield, preparing to lock onto his next target.
"We can't let Roy continue to slaughter like this!"
