Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 364: Akainu's Death (asking for monthly ticket~)
"Pirates, what exactly is your purpose!?"

In mid-air, the fist wrapped in armed color domineering exuded a terrifying cold aura, tightly imprisoning Sanji's neck.

Aokiji, who was holding Sanji, frowned.

Possessing powerful observation Haki, he had already noticed the Straw Hat Pirates who were attacking the navy fleet, and he also noticed the movements of Akainu and Zoro.

At this moment, he was filled with mixed feelings.

Judging from the current situation, the defeat of the World Government and the Navy is a foregone conclusion.

Even with the existence of the Five Elders, Aokiji still didn't think they had a chance of winning.

This is not because their opponents are the three Four Emperors pirate groups...

Simply because...

The enemy is the Straw Hat Pirates!
"Want to know our purpose!?"

Sanji, who was restrained, not only did not show the slightest sign of pain, but in response to Aokiji's questioning, he grinned.

The next second, under Aokiji's shocked gaze, Sanji suddenly twisted his neck with force.

Relying on the momentum of the rotation and the compressed volume of his neck, Sanji easily escaped from Aokiji's stranglehold.

Then, after spinning his head nearly a circle, Sanji placed his hands on his twisted head in front of Aokiji and twisted it hard.

Click! ! !

Accompanied by an extremely crisp sound, Sanji, whose head was twisted, actually straightened his head.

Then he slowly raised his head and smiled, which made Aokiji, the user of the Ice-Ice Fruit, feel a chill down his spine.

"You will know when you defeat us."

"What a bunch of monsters!"

Looking at his hand which still maintained its original position, Aokiji couldn't help but sigh.

Although he knew that there was no point in continuing the battle, he had to use the power of ice once again to condense a sharp ice spear.

"Since the rational approach doesn't work anymore, we can only take it one step at a time!"

"Let me see... just how outrageous your recovery ability is!"

Swish!
Aokiji in mid-air suddenly stepped on the ground with a violent explosion, his body instantly rushed forward, and the spear in his hand left a blue arc in the air.

After realizing that he could not change anything with his own strength, he chose a nearly self-destructive approach, no longer thinking about anything else and focusing entirely on the battle ahead.

Sanji on the opposite side also condensed fanatical flames once again, as if dyeing the entire space red, forming a distorted halo around him.

"As long as you beat me!"

Sanji suddenly let out a loud shout.

He already knew all the progress on Zoro's side.

That guy was the first to use the power of MEGA evolution, which was equivalent to surrendering to him.

Next, as long as he can defeat the admiral in front of him, then a year's worth of underwear and socks...

Sauron is definitely done!!!

Thinking of this, Sanji, who originally felt that he was no match for Aokiji, suddenly felt an inexplicable power surge in his body.

The battle of fire and ice continues!
Unfortunately……

Although in terms of the power of fire, Sanji, with the blessing of Pokémon moves, is better than Aokiji.

But Aokiji's physical ability directly makes up for this deficiency and overpowers Sanji.

If it weren't for the power of "immortality" brought by the bloodline factor, this battle would not have lasted so long.

"The top admiral is still powerful..."

Seeing Sanji being suppressed by Aokiji again, the red face that teleported to the vicinity of the battlefield couldn't help but reveal a trace of emotion.

Although Sanji's current strength has surpassed his own in the original timeline, he is still beaten by Aokiji without any chance to fight back.

The power of bloodline factors is indeed strong.

It is enough to make Sanji's combat power jump from the elite vice admiral of the navy to the top vice admiral level.

But... this is also its limit.

Unless the Vinsmoke family can further improve the bloodline factors in Sanji's body, this power that Chihong has been looking forward to for a long time since the East China Sea can be considered a successful graduation.

"Level... and the awakening of the fruit's ability..."

Red murmured softly, clarifying the path Sanji would take next.

But in his opinion, unless Sanji can suddenly awaken the power of the Speed-Speed ​​Fruit in this battle, otherwise...

The bet between him and Zoro will most likely end in a draw.

After all, while he and Aokiji were fighting each other, the battlefield on Zoro's side was about to be decided.

……

……

"Nine Swords Style·Asura·Dragon Roar·Break!"

Clang!
The seemingly calm slash that seemed to cut off everything on another level suddenly flashed in the air.

The next second, the body of the giant lava beast that was originally towering was suddenly cut vertically in the middle, turning into two pieces of rolling lava, flowing towards the sea below.

"cough……"

The magma dissipated, revealing Akainu's true figure.

But at this moment, he no longer had the domineering aura he had before.

The marshal's uniform was in tatters, and the countless scars left charred marks under the scorching lava.

There was a severe and smooth cut on his waist, and magma was dripping bit by bit like blood.

Who could have thought that a dignified admiral of the navy would be beaten into such a horrible state by a fighter from the Straw Hat Pirates.

If this scene were published, it would be enough to cause a huge sensation around the world.

And the navy's prestige will also suffer a real Waterloo.

Akainu's expression was ferocious, and he made a hoarse, angry sound from the depths of his throat:

"Damn Pirates!!!"

"That's just a few lines back and forth. Don't you have any more lines?!"

"You still refuse to face reality? Admiral of the Navy!"

sieve!
Zoro's figure flashed like a ghost, and suddenly appeared in front of Akainu, looking at him whose true form had been revealed.

The nine long swords on his body also emitted different styles of sword energy, tightly blocking Akainu's figure.

But looking at Zoro's contemptuous smile towards his head, Akainu's face suddenly turned pale:

"What do you know!?"

He groaned in a deep voice:
"As navy officers, we shoulder the justice of this world!"

"You can't escape!"

"Give up struggling, you bastards!!!"

The wriggling magma gradually healed the wounds on Akainu's body.

In the blink of an eye, his body returned to normal.

But perhaps his strength was no longer enough to sustain the huge lava beast, and he actually slowly dispersed the terrifying beast and revealed his true form again.

"Hoo~! Hoo~!"

After several consecutive fierce confrontations, Akainu's body was already exhausted.

But after taking a deep breath...

His eyes suddenly became extremely firm, as if there were raging flames burning wildly in them.

Akainu's life is burning!
"bring it on!"

"Before I die, I will never let any pirate go unpunished!!!"

boom! ! !
Extremely high temperature gushed out from Akainu's body, followed by a thick layer of armed color domineering, wrapping his entire body.

Although he is not like Aokiji, who has an almost crazy obsession with physical skills.

But how could he, who was able to defeat Aokiji in the Marshal competition, not know Taijutsu! ? "Big Fire Breath!"

bake! ! !
Boiling magma once again appeared from Akainu's body.

But this time, the red magma did not break through the armament domineering, but instead it was like suddenly expanding Akainu's upper body, swinging his huge fist towards Zoro.

The magma flowing in the body looked like muscle lines, emitting a bright red light under the dark armor-colored skin.

The air around him was distorted by Akainu's attack.

Fear dissipated in all directions along with the downward pressure.

"What a difficult navy!"

Seeing that Akainu still had the energy left to launch such a powerful attack, Zoro in the Ashura state immediately grinned with a satisfied smile.

"But this is better!"

"After all... only a strong man like this can arouse my desire to swing my sword!!!"

"Nine Swords Style, Ashura, Severed World, Big Tornado!!!"

boom! ! !
Zoro's body suddenly spun, creating another huge tornado out of thin air, rushing towards the attacking Akainu.

In an instant...

The scarlet giant smashed the barrier-like storm with his fist.

As the hurricane rotates at high speed, the heat of the lava is quickly taken away, forming scorching hot winds that surge toward the two sides of the collision.

"Damn it!!!"

Akainu's eyes were bared.

He didn't understand why this guy in front of him suddenly became so powerful! ?
Suddenly, an idea popped into his mind.

correct!

It turns out that from the beginning to the end... he had ignored the existence of one person!
A figure who did not actually appear on the battlefield, but left his mark everywhere on the battlefield and had a profound impact on every battlefield!
The vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Red!
That guy... is the key to the Straw Hat Pirates!
Everything began to change after he appeared.

There must be some incredible power hidden in that guy!
Akainu was secretly thinking, and decided that after all this was over, he would thoroughly investigate the pirate he had overlooked.

But at this moment...

A gloomy voice as if from hell suddenly appeared behind him.

"What are you thinking about, Marine!?"

Akainu: ! ! ?
Akainu's eyes trembled and a look of surprise suddenly flashed across his face.

"when!?"

He tried to turn back.

But at this moment, a feeling of weakness suddenly came over me.

Then he heard the voice behind him continue:
"You're too careless, Marine!"

"You don't think... I'd be like that lecherous cook and do something stupid without thinking, do you?!"

"You actually created such a huge shadow for me to use. Have you forgotten how you were attacked in the first place!?"

"Hidden Blade Style·Submerged Spiritual Attack·Dragon Fang!"

Swish!
Zoro suddenly appeared from Akainu's shadow and directly placed nine long swords in the air on the left and right, forming two rows, like two sharp fangs of a giant dragon.

Then he suddenly stabbed at the giant Akainu.

Phew! ! !

It was clearly a natural lava body, but as Zoro's long sword pierced into it, two streams of blood suddenly gushed out like fountains.

The fusion of steel attribute and armament color domineering allows the already sharp long sword to easily break through Akainu's solid armament color armor.

The ghost energy carrying the ghost energy characteristics was injected directly into Akainu's body like a ghost and spread rapidly.

Then, the domineering aura that was hidden under the demonic energy and fused with the dragon attribute energy suddenly erupted in Akainu's body, destroying everything madly!
This seemingly ordinary attack actually contains Zoro's full mastery of the power of Pokémon!

"what--!!!"

After enduring Zoro's full-strength attack, Akainu let out a shrill scream.

This was the most painful attack he had ever suffered since he started fighting.

Compared with this attack, the previous scars were just minor injuries that were not serious at all.

Under the influence of Haki, Akainu's natural body quickly shrank and turned back into normal form.

And behind him, Zoro suddenly pulled out the two sets of swords on his back, leaving a trail of blood again.

It quickly dissipated in the hot air.

"It's over!"

Two rays of light flashed in Zoro's eyes.

Without waiting for Akainu to turn around completely, he suddenly retreated backwards with his sharp figure, and was far away from Akainu.

It was not until this time that Akainu, influenced by the sword power and domineering aura in his body, was able to turn around.

"hateful!"

Affected by the Pokémon's moves, he showed a look of difficulty, but he forced himself to support his tortured body and swung his fists again.

"Pluto!!!"

wow——

Suddenly, a huge dog head with fangs appeared and chased in the direction of Zoro.

But at this time, Zoro, who had three heads and six arms, slowly put away the Sandai Kitetsu and Sorayaki, and clenched the Wado Ichimonji in his mouth, while his other hand picked up the scabbard of Wado Ichimonji.

"Nine mountains and eight seas merge into one world, and thousands of worlds gather together to form a small thousand worlds."

"Use the mountains as your power and the sea as your spirit!"

"Three thousand worlds, at my disposal!"

Zoro suddenly raised his head, the blazing lava rushing towards him reflected in his eyes, but his expression was extremely calm.

As Zoro uttered word by word, the two heads and four arms behind him rotated in the air as if in slow motion in a movie, and overlapped all the swords one by one with the Wado Ichimonji in Zoro's hand.

And slowly put it back into the scabbard.

In an instant, Zoro's aura suddenly withdrew, making him stand in mid-air as if he were nothingness.

And his body also changed back to its original form, as if it had not undergone MEGA evolution or Pokémonization.

"Whoo~"

Zoro exhaled lightly with sword energy.

next moment……

He stood with his sword across his body and said softly:
"Return to the Realm·Itto-ryu·Iai..."

"Lion Song Song!!!"

Swish! ! !
A tiny beam of light suddenly flashed in the sky, as if cutting the entire world in half.

When the scene turned to the battlefield again, Zoro's figure had appeared behind Akainu at some point and was kneeling on one knee in mid-air.

However, the Wadōichimonji in his hand was pointing high into the air to the side.

“…No…Impossible…”

wow——

The huge Hades formed by magma suddenly split into two in the middle, turning into a huge rock that had lost its heat and fell into the sea below.

At this time, Akainu slowly turned around, his eyes revealing incredible shock and unwillingness.

He stretched out his finger with all his strength, trying to point to Zoro's location.

But at this moment...

Suddenly, a clear black line appeared on his body.

Immediately afterwards, the gushing blood directly washed away his body.

Akainu's body was split into two parts by a ray of light.

Then it fell straight towards the sea below.
