On the vast sea, thousands of miles of ice Setsuna appeared, and as far as the eye could see, everything was covered in ice. The rolling waves on the sea surface were frozen in place, like a fine work of art.
Not only Jinbe, who was instantly frozen, and Ace, who was defeated by a flick of his finger, but even Ain, who had followed Uya for a long time, couldn't help but open his mouth slightly and reveal a strange look in his eyes when he saw this scene.
Fire and ice!
I saw two more abilities in Commander Uya, and both of them were so powerful!
Within the ice beneath the warship.
"Drink!"
Jinbe struggled fiercely and managed to shatter some of the ice that was trapping him, but only a small portion of it. Looking around, the ice stretched all the way to the depths of the seabed, and it was impossible to tell how far it had frozen.
Even the ice above is at least a hundred meters away from Jinbe's position, so getting out of such a thick layer of ice is no easy task.
Moreover, Jinbe fully realized that the ice freezing the sea was not ordinary ice, but like Admiral Aokiji, it contained extremely cold power and was extremely solid!
Even Jinbe found the icy chill Jinbe, and when he tried to break the ice, he was even more shocked to discover that the ice was even harder than the ice made by Aokiji!
Even as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he could only break the ice bit by bit with great difficulty!
"Is this the difference in strength?"
Jinbe looked up through the ice at the warships on the ice surface, his face filled with utter shock. Was Uya really that strong?
Is the gap really that big?!
On a warship.
Everyone was stunned by the sight of the sea being frozen solid in an instant, but Ain, having been trained by Zephyr and even witnessed Aokiji's Ice Age, quickly calmed down.
She glanced at the frozen sea, then at Ace, who was still lost in disbelief, and suddenly pouted helplessly.
"Commander Uya, although the warship isn't damaged, it can't leave now."
"Yeah?"
The chill beneath Uya's feet transformed into wisps of white mist, rising upwards like plumes of smoke. However, there was no sign of Uya freezing or turning into ice; he remained clad in his loose white robe, unchanged.
"The warship is completely frozen." Ain shrugged helplessly, then suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh right! I almost forgot, Commander Uya, you can make the warship float."
Thinking of this, Ain nodded, but then narrowed her eyes slightly and pouted at Uya, saying, "Speaking of which, Commander Uya, you shouldn't have needed to freeze this place to solve the problem, right?"
Hearing Ain's words, Uya couldn't help but smile and said, "We got a little hot playing with fire just now, so I'm cooling you down."
"..."
Ain rolled her eyes at Uya, looking utterly speechless.
Uya smiled, shrugged at Ain, and said casually, "Actually, it's to set up a suitable venue first."
"Venue? What venue?"
Ain blinked, looking confused.
Uya didn't explain, but turned to look at Fire Fist Ace, who had just come to his senses and looked slightly dejected, and said lightly, "Being hot-blooded and impulsive isn't always a bad thing, but... first you have to understand yourself."
In the original story, it was Ace disregarded Whitebeard's objections and went to pursue Blackbeard Teach, which ultimately triggered the Summit War, causing the Whitebeard Pirates to disappear from the seas and be replaced by Blackbeard.
In his previous life, Uya Uya somewhat inclined to side with Whitebeard and Ace. However, now that his level of understanding is different, his mindset is also different. He no longer cares about the so-called light and darkness, justice and evil.
If he finds it interesting, he doesn't mind playing with it for a while; if he finds it an eyesore, he doesn't mind slapping it to death.
Do you truly understand yourself?
Ace fell silent upon hearing Uya's words. Even though he had been defeated by Whitebeard and had been utterly crushed in countless assassination attempts against Whitebeard, the passion in his heart had never faded.
However, being defeated by Uya's fiery finger flick made Ace truly realize the gap between them, like an unreachable cloud.
"Commander Uya, shall we arrest him?"
Ain walked over to Uya, looked at Ace was looking down, and said, "Although he is Logia no Mi ( Flame-Flame Fruit) user, he has Seastone shackles on the warship."
After glancing at Ace Uya, Ace turned away and looked at the distant sea, or rather, the frozen sea.
Silently.
At the edge of that frozen sea, a dark shadow suddenly appeared!
Ain noticed Uya 'Uya expression and couldn't help but follow his gaze, immediately revealing a look of astonishment.
"That is..."
The sailors on the warship were all startled, looking at the distant sea in shock. Then someone quickly brought out binoculars, and upon seeing what was there, they immediately showed a look of horror.
The atmosphere on the warship suddenly became strange. Ace noticed this and turned his head with some difficulty to look at the frozen sea behind him.
At this moment, the dark shadows gradually became clearer, revealing themselves to be human figures!
Upon seeing these figures, Ace slightly opened his mouth, recognizing them instantly.
Those figures moving across the ice were none other than the Whitebeard Pirates!
As the figures gradually became clearer, an aura pressed down on Uya's warship. This was not the aura of one person, but the aura of the entire pirate crew, almost perfectly integrated together!
The Whitebeard Pirates slowly walked over. Above them, a thick, dark cloud appeared, carrying a strong sense of oppression, slowly pressing down, just like a mountain peak tilting in their direction!
" The Whitebeard Pirates... have they arrived?!" Ain gazed at the Whitebeard Pirates, whose aura was solidified, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, a solemn look appearing in his eyes.
Before the Whitebeard Pirates had even fully reached the front of the warship, and before their figures could even be clearly seen, the terrifying pressure was already making it difficult for everyone to breathe.
Ain was doing a little better, but some of the ordinary marines behind her had even started to tremble.
Uya stood calmly on the deck, watching the group of people approaching. A gentle breeze blew by, and his loose white robes and snow-white hair fluttered slightly in the wind.
Uya's face showed no sign of seriousness, only a calm indifference, his gaze seeming to be looking from another world, distant and vague.
That terrifying pressure fell upon Uya, yet it passed by as lightly as a breeze, leaving no trace and having no effect whatsoever. It was as if Uya's existence was completely integrated with the world, and no matter how strong his aura was, it was impossible for him to suppress the entire world.
The sea was completely silent.
On the warship, it was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
Not only the navy personnel present, but at this moment, almost the entire world's gaze was fixed on this place; the solemn and tense atmosphere seemed to have spread throughout the world! (To be continued.)
