Fight to the death!

Without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing the Canine Red Lotus coming straight at him, Bai Yu, with immense force on his left shoulder, deliberately rammed into it.

Bang!

As molten lava splattered everywhere, the giant dog, tens of meters long, was smashed to pieces by Bai Yu.

The next moment, the Demon Sword Murasame held by Bai Yu burst forth with dense black light and slashed down directly at him.

" Dark Cloaking - Dimension Slash!"

Boom!

With a single strike, the heavens and earth fell into darkness.

The defenses that Akainu hastily set up were torn apart like paper in an instant.

The bloody gash on the shoulder, pulled towards the abdomen in an instant.

Crimson blood spurted out.

With such immense force, even the defenses of Armament Haki were breached.

Even Akainu was sent flying backwards like a cannonball.

This time, the dam was no longer there to stop it.

Akainu crashed headfirst into the sea below.

In desperation, Akainu endured the excruciating pain and was about to use his Elemental Transformation to escape.

Unfortunately, the Devil Fruit power within him was as solid as a rock, unable to be activated for the time being.

Not to mention, at this critical juncture, they're attempting Elemental Transformation.

For a moment, Akainu couldn't react at all, and the only thing he could do was plunge headfirst into the sea.

Boom!

The surrounding seawater splashed away instantly.

The seawater, which was originally extremely cold, gradually began to boil.

This boiling only lasted a few seconds before it quickly died.

The vast square and the surrounding navy were suddenly jolted awake.

"Hey, stop standing there! Go save Akainu! He can't swim!"

Sengoku the Roar in disbelief.

This battle must be fought, and a victor must be determined.

However, if the Marine Headquarters were to lose an Admiral- level combatant for this reason...

Such a thing would absolutely not be allowed to happen during the Sengoku.

Everyone who was still in shock rushed into the sea at top speed to save the emperor.

Seeing this, Garp didn't hesitate and quickly rushed towards Bai Yu's direction.

Bai Yu, are you alright?

"You were really reckless just now, daring to take Meteor Volcano head-on. What if you couldn't withstand it?"

As the pinnacle of the old era, Garp was well aware of the power of Logia Devil Fruit.

Even he dared not take on hundreds or thousands of Meteor Volcano head-on.

Bai Yu's crazy actions truly shocked everyone.

"Don't worry, sir, it's just a minor burn." Bai Yu glanced at the burned arm.

In the final clash, he even resorted to Dark Magic.

Otherwise, relying solely on intermediate-level Armament Haki and the Spiritual Pressure Materialization.

Bai Yu probably really can't beat Akainu's Meteor Volcano.

However, it was precisely for this reason that Bai Yu unexpectedly managed to deliver a heavy blow to Akainu.

This feeling is absolutely amazing.

"Unfortunately, there was no way to force Sakazuki to use his full power and awaken Awakening Devil Fruit ability; otherwise, that would have been a true battle!"

Bai Yu pulled out a bottle of strong liquor and took a swig.

These words caused Sengoku and the others, who had rushed over, to lose all composure, their facial muscles twitching.

The battle just now even destroyed the plaza of the Marine Headquarters.

Is Bai Yu still not satisfied with this large-scale, costly battle? Does he really intend to destroy the entire Marine Headquarters before he's satisfied?

However, facing Bai Yu, who was standing on the battlefield last.

Let alone Sengoku, even other naval commanders felt a chill run down their spines at Bai Yu's insane and bloodthirsty fighting style.

This guy is completely reckless.

Fighting this kind of person is a nightmare unless you have enough strength to completely overwhelm them.

Bai Yu, I'm going to kill you!

Bang!

Two figures burst forth from the sea.

Besides the Yamakaji, Akainu was clearly helped out of the water.

However, compared to ordinary landlubbers, Akainu is someone who is almost at the limit.

The brief immersion in seawater clearly didn't immediately kill him.

Feel the molten lava churning up from his body once more.

Sengoku quickly rushed out and stood between Bai Yu and Akainu.

"Alright, have you guys had enough? If you want to fight, go find someone in the New World to vent your anger on. Don't act recklessly here at headquarters."

"Look at the state of the square after that battle. The cost of repairs will be deducted from your compensation."

"Also, everyone heard about the bet we just made. If you make a move again, Akainu, don't blame me for being impolite."

" Bai Yu, you better tone it down!"

A chilling the Roar, like thunder, rolled outwards.

Garp, sensing the situation, patted Bai Yu on the shoulder.

"Alright, let's stop here for today. There will be many more opportunities to fight against stronger opponents in the future. If you're not satisfied, Grandpa is ready to oblige."

"Grandpa, is that you?" A flash of bloodthirsty fighting spirit crossed Bai Yu's face.

He was clearly interested in Garp's proposal.

Sengoku's cheek muscles twitched again as an absurd thought flashed through his mind.

This guy even went after my grandfather, could he, as the Fleet Admiral, be on the kill list too?

" Yamakaji, let me go!"

Akainu's face was ashen.

He knew very well that once today was over...

This battle will definitely be publicized.

However, Akainu never expected that his underestimation of his opponent would turn what was meant to be a show of force into a stepping stone for the enemy.

" Admiral Sakazuki, your wound..." Yamakaji released his grip, but looking at the shocking bloody gash on Akainu's chest, he still couldn't contain himself.

"It's just a minor injury, it won't kill you!" Akainu took a deep breath, barely suppressing the stinging pain from the wound.

Since he acquired the Magma-Magma Fruit and became Marine Admiral.

He couldn't remember when he had suffered such an injury.

Looking at the brat in front of him, Akainu spoke with a frosty expression.

"Kid, I didn't expect you to be so secretive. It turns out you also possess Logia Devil Fruit ability."

"If I'm not mistaken, that strike you just delivered was probably infused with the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit!"

Dark-Dark Fruit?

The expressions on the faces of those present changed drastically.

Even Garp and Sengoku were no exception.

The extraordinary nature of the Dark-Dark Fruit is also documented in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia.

In the original story, Blackbeard set his sights on this fruit after learning about it from the Devil Fruit encyclopedia.

Akainu's current defeat is attributed to the Dark-Dark Fruit.

This clearly shocked everyone.

" Bai Yu, are you really Devil Fruit User? You possess the Logia Dark-Dark Fruit?"

Sengoku pressed for an answer.

If Bai Yu's display of powerful Three Types of Haki and the methods of Great Swordmaster had intimidated everyone...

So Bai Yu really does possess the Dark-Dark Fruit, that monstrous ability?

He is more than qualified to hold a high- Admiral!
