Chapter 231

"Could it be that all six of them have eaten the Monster Cell?!"

Thinking of this, Kuzan was startled.

If that were the case, then he feared he would not only fail to capture the six on the opposite side, but might even end up in a wretched state.

Kuzan dared not be negligent again and decided to unleash his full strength.

He leaped into the air, dodging Shiryu's slash wave.

Immediately, he clasped his hands together and shouted loudly:

"Ice Ball!"

Crack crack crack!

Several thick ice pillars shot out from Kuzan's hands, heading toward Shiryu and the others at extremely high speed.

These ice pillars contained extreme cold; anyone or anything that touched them would be instantly frozen.

"Kuzan, you vastly underestimate me now! How could I let you succeed!"

Shiryu's grin grew even more sinister.

In his hand, the Thunder Rain sword slashed out countless afterimages with a swish swish swish.

In an instant, it turned Kuzan's ice pillars into ice shards.

Then, he slashed out another massive slash wave; Kuzan, who was in mid-air, could not dodge, and his body was split in half, falling onto the sea surface.

"Heh heh heh, so-called strongest Admiral, nothing more than this! Solved so easily!"

Akainu, Catarina Devon, and the others let out disdainful snickers.

Jinbe of the Sea, however, frowned and said:

"How could it be resolved so easily? Every Marine Admiral possesses strength beyond imagination! Do not think that because they have eaten the Monster Cell, you can look down on them!"

As Jinbe said, Kuzan was not dead.

His body, split in two, fell onto the sea surface; instead of sinking, it froze the sea surface into an ice sheet.

"Ice Age!"

The frozen ice sheet extended rapidly, freezing the Beasts Pirates' ships in the blink of an eye.

Kuzan's body restored itself, and he spoke coldly:

"Now you have nowhere to escape!"

Upon hearing this, Shiryu seemed to hear the biggest joke in the world and laughed loudly toward the sky:

"It is you who has nowhere to escape, Admiral Kuzan!"

The four, including Akainu, who had just been slapped in the face, felt no embarrassment and joined in the wild laughter:

"Let us attack together and kill this Marine Admiral!"

Saying this, the four of them and Shiryu jumped onto the ice surface and surrounded Kuzan.

Among the four of Akainu, Catarina Devon was the strongest; she was a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, the Nine-Tailed Fox, with special abilities that seemed to include methods to bewitch enemies.

In short,

the four, enhanced by the Ghost-level Monster Cell, already possessed the strength to challenge an Admiral,

and with Shiryu of the Rain, who had eaten the Dragon-level Monster Cell, how could Kuzan possibly be a match? He soon found himself in grave danger.

Jinbe, the last one, did not just watch.

As a Fish-Man, the ocean was his home ground.

Jinbe directly broke the ice surface, dove into the seabed, and used Fish-Man Karate underwater to control the ocean currents.

"Ocean Current Shoulder Throw!"

Boom!

A thick ocean current, over ten meters wide, surged violently from the seabed, striking Kuzan squarely in the chest before he could dodge.

Kuzan was knocked flying and happened to crash into the warship he had been riding; the entire warship was destroyed.

Kuzan smashed heavily into the sea surface; fortunately, his reaction was fast enough to freeze the sea surface into ice just as he was about to land.

Otherwise, if he had fallen into the seabed, he would truly have been doomed.

Kuzan, who had climbed up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his expression became extremely ugly.

He had vastly underestimated the strength of the six on the opposite side.

At this moment.

Sengoku, Kizaru, and others, seeing that Kuzan's battle situation was dire, rushed up at extreme speed.

They were also extremely shocked by the strength of Shiryu and the other five.

Sengoku pulled Kuzan onto the ship and asked with concern:

"Kuzan, how is your injury?"

Kuzan said: "It is nothing serious. It is just that all these guys have eaten the Monster Cell; their strength is incomparable to the past, making them truly difficult to deal with!"

"Monster Cell again, the invention of the Fifth Emperor Luo Xing!"

The leader of CP0 spoke out in anger.

Luo Xing's inventions had brought unprecedented huge trouble to the World Government!

The destruction of Impel Down and the occupation of Sabaody were all because of Luo Xing's invention of the Anywhere Door, which made them run around in circles!

The leader of CP0, who had long been furious beyond endurance, could no longer hold back and said to all CP0 members:

"Attack together and kill those six bastards!"

More than ten members of CP0 moved out collectively; they were all experts proficient in the Marine Six Styles and could use Geppo to walk on air.

One by one, they arrived in the high sky, then, as if by prior agreement, simultaneously used Rankyaku.

Buzz buzz!

In an instant, dozens of slashing waves shot out densely like rain.

198. The chaotic battle begins! Jinbe vs. Sengoku! Momonosuke's charm skill!

All members of CP0 attacked together, a rarity in the World Government's eight-hundred-year history.

They simultaneously unleashed Armament Haki slashes, dozens of powerful cutting waves making people's scalps tingle.

However,

Just as these slashing waves were about to strike the Beasts Pirates' ships, a hand as vast as a mountain suddenly enveloped all the cutting waves.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch! It hurts my hand so much!"

That muffled, thunder-like rumble came from the massive warship Saint Juan Wolf.

He himself is the world's tallest giant, standing over one hundred meters tall.

After consuming the Level 6 Monster Cell, his body expanded again, now reaching over two hundred meters.

Every gesture and movement caused the earth to quake and mountains to shake.

Boom!

Saint Juan Wolf leaped directly into the sea, raising huge waves.

He laughed playfully, constantly slapping the seawater.

"Die, all of you, Navy and Government bastards!"

Splash!

The seawater stirred by Saint Juan Wolf formed a tsunami, crashing toward the Navy's dozens of warships.

This tsunami was not as exaggerated as the one triggered by Bai Huzi during the Summit War, but it still could not be underestimated.

If truly hit, who knows how many warships would be sunk.

Fortunately, they had a Devil Fruit user with Ice-Ice Fruit powers, Admiral Aokiji.

Aokiji used Ice Age again, freezing the tsunami and the surrounding sea surface entirely into blocks of ice.

"Fire the cannons, push them back, and assault Sabaody!"

Kizaru ordered.

Dragging things out at sea against Shiryu and the others was not an option; their goal this time was to retake the Sabaody Archipelago.

Boom, boom, boom!

Countless cannonballs fell from the sky like a downpour.

While cannonballs were lethal to ordinary people, they meant nothing to true powerhouses.

Shiryu of the Rain swept his sword horizontally, easily destroying over ten cannonballs.

Evil King, Catarina Devon, Big Barrel, and Wolf, the four of them, each took action, either slapping the cannonballs away or crushing them.

They were like wild beasts; ordinary attack methods were ineffective against them.
