Magma and cold air at this level are only good enough for barbecues and cold drinks at my banquets

Azure Dragon Pass was, after all, not far from Mary Geoise.

That area is also near the Marine Headquarters.

The World Government absolutely does not want a powerful threat in its heartland.

This is like a sword hanging over their heads at any moment.

Whether for security reasons or other reasons, the World Government cannot tolerate a group of pirates occupying this place.

The Azure Emperor Pirates also have reasons for needing to control Azure Dragon Pass.

The emergence of Azure Dragon Pass, with its unique geography, inevitably made it a vital transportation artery for the entire New World.

Even setting aside the fact that they control this place, the daily tax revenue alone amounts to an enormous fortune.

As a vital transportation artery of the New World, Zesi could not allow it to fall into the hands of others.

Otherwise, if the World Government were to control this vital artery, it could restrict the development of the New World.

Zesi, who desires to unify the New World, is unwilling to see this happen.

That's why Zesi wanted to negotiate with the World Government.

After all, it was quite far from the Azure Emperor Pirates' location, and it was near the enemy's headquarters.

For the Azure Emperor Pirates, it is an enclave.

Moreover, it was an enclave next to the enemy headquarters.

Both sides have their bottom lines, and neither wants a full-scale war, so the only option is to sit down and negotiate.

However, it now seems that the World Government has other plans.

He was fine with others, but he didn't want Shanks to perish in Mary Geoise.

So he came to the G-1 Branch.

He wanted to tell World Government not to act recklessly.

Upon hearing Zesi's words, Sakazuki's face turned incredibly angry.

Zesi's words were self-evident.

Mark!: 1 This is using them as hostages to threaten the World Government.

Damn it, do you really think we're pushovers?

"Oh, the Navy has no jurisdiction over the World Government!" Borsalino said.

"The Navy isn't your mouthpiece!" Kuzan said calmly.

"Did you hear that? Azure Emperor, the Navy isn't as weak as you think!" Sakazuki said coldly.

"Hehehe, looks like you've improved quite a bit lately, so you want to test your strength? Hey Navy, are you prepared for the consequences of starting a war?" Zesi said with a faint smile.

"Isn't it a matter of course for the Navy to capture pirates?" Sakazuki sneered.

At the same time, magma flames erupted from his fist as he spoke, and he threw a fierce punch at Zesi.

Great Eruption.

The Rock Fist struck Zesi like a volcanic eruption.

" Ice Block: Pheasant Beak!" Kuzan unleashed an extremely cold ice bird from his arm.

"Huh?" Just as the ice and lava attacked, a terrifying gravity pressed down on Zesi.

The terrifying gravity immediately reminded Zesi of someone.

However, before Zesi could even check if it was the person he imagined, Sakazuki's Great Eruption and Kuzan's Ice Block: Pheasant Beak struck Zesi simultaneously.

On one side is scorching hot lava, and on the other side is icy cold air.

In an instant, the spot where Zesi stood was transformed into a world where ice and fire coexisted.

"How's it going?"

" Sakazuki's magma, Kuzan's ice, plus Ichisho's gravity—even the Azure Emperor would likely be unable to withstand this attack unscathed!"

"That's right. You know, recently, the strength of several Vice Admiral, including Sakazuki, has become almost comparable to that of Admiral."

"Even if it's the Azure Emperor, with so many powerful Vice Admiral now comparable to Admiral, we have nothing to fear!"

The navy personnel said.

Sakazuki and his ilk's strength is undeniable.

In addition, Sakazuki and others have made rapid progress in their abilities during this period.

Sakazuki was even able to go toe-to-toe with Thunder Python Admiral not long ago.

Kuzan and Borsalino are roughly equal in strength.

In other words, there are at least three generals here with combat strength comparable to that of Admiral.

With the addition of powerful Vice Admiral like Issho, the navy has the confidence not to be afraid.

"No wonder you're so confident, it turns out your strength has improved recently. But this level of magma cooling is only enough for a barbecue or cold drinks at my banquet!"

780 Just then, a voice came from the world of ice and fire.

At the same time, a hand waved, and instantly the world of ice and fire was torn apart.

A terrifying force of vibration circulated.

Instantly, the lava and ice were all annihilated.

Sakazuki Kuzan, and others have become stronger.

This was actually expected.

All three are highly talented individuals.

Moreover, they are all Logia Devil Fruit User.

That's not to say that Logia Fruit users are invincible.

However, Logia Devil Fruit do have their unique advantages.

At least at the starting line, they are much ahead of others.

After experiencing so many fierce battles and surviving them, their strength naturally broke through.

As Logia Devil Fruit User, especially Devil Fruit User powerful Logia Devil Fruits like the Magma-Magma Fruit, the Ice-Ice Fruit, and the Glint-Glint Fruit.

After breaking through to the next level, one naturally enters the top tier.
