Chapter 75

~6 min read 1,154 words

"Admiral Sakazuki, the Beasts Pirates were indeed prepared; Kaido has sent all Three Calamities to support them!"

"Three Calamities?" Akainu sneered coldly, disdainfully, "Then this old man will simply kill them all, cut off Kaido's allies, and settle this once and for all!"

During the last escort of the Heavenly Tribute, Akainu had seen Jack the Drought.

The opponent was instantly one-punched to death by him, his lungs burned away by his magma.

If not for that Beasts Imperial Son-in-Law inventing the god-defying Senzu Bean, Jack the Drought would already be crippled.

The other two disasters Akainu had not seen were likely no better than the Drought.

For Akainu to clean them up would take at most some effort.

Oh, what if you say the Beasts Pirates have Senzu Beans and recover quickly?

Joke. Who does he think Akainu is?

One Supreme King's Fist through your heart, destroying your skull; I don't believe a Senzu Bean can bring you back from the dead!

Akainu's Magma Fruit is known as the existence with the strongest attack power in the World of Pirates, with first-class instant-kill effects.

Wosuke, seeing Akainu speak thus, felt relieved.

He also did not believe that mere Three Calamities and a few Tobiroppo were opponents for Admiral Akainu.

The warship was only one hundred meters from the port of Dressrosa.

Both sides could already see each other's faces.

Akainu's brows suddenly furrowed.

The first thing he saw was Jack the Drought; the opponent's figure had actually doubled in size compared to last time. Was it because of eating the Monster Cells?

It seems Jack the Drought's strength has increased.

However, even knowing this, Akainu felt not the slightest worry.

Because the Monster Cells that leaked from Big Mom back then, the Navy obtained several, all sent to Dr. Vegapunk for research.

Although Dr. Vegapunk failed to replicate the Monster Cells, he analyzed the principle behind the Monster Cells.

The conclusion reached was that Monster Cells can enhance a person's strength, but absolutely not to the level of a Navy Admiral.

Tsuru, who had fought against Page One and Ulti, also said that although Page One and Ulti were strong, they were still far from Admiral level.

This was the reason Akainu was so confident.

However.

Akainu did not know that the Monster Cells Jack and the other Three Calamities ate were not the Tiger-level Monster Cells of that time, but Dragon-level!

The gap between Tiger-level and Dragon-level is roughly equal to the gap between a Rear Admiral and an Admiral!

Dedao Coast.

Jack also looked at Akainu first.

Recalling the lung-destroying grudge of that day, his eyes turned almost instantly blood-red.

Jack stared fiercely at Akainu on the warship and roared:

"Akainu, bring your ship over here! Today I will make you know my power!"

Hearing this, Akainu wore an expression of contempt.

"A defeated subordinate dares to be arrogant? Since I didn't kill you last time, it is not too late for this old man to send you to hell today!"

He then ordered the Vice Admiral below:

"Bring the ship over."

Wosuke hesitated for a moment and advised:

"Your Excellency, Admiral, it seems we should bombard first; we should not engage in close combat so quickly."

What Wosuke said was the reasonable tactic.

The warship had cannons; if we do not first bombard them with hundreds of shots to deplete the enemy's forces, would that not be a waste?

Akainu, however, disdained doing so.

He was extremely confident in his own strength and looked down utterly on the Beasts Pirates' Three Calamities and Tobiroppo.

If Kaido himself were present, he might perhaps have a bit of caution.

Akainu commanded without room for doubt:

"Just listen to this old man; bring the ship over."

Wosuke, helpless, had no choice but to do so.

But he kept a watchful eye; he did not bring his warship too close to the coast, nor did he drop anchor.

This way, if anything unexpected happened, the warship could depart quickly.

However, with Admiral Sakazuki present, the possibility of anything unexpected happening was extremely, extremely low, approaching zero infinitely.

Hundreds of marines landed on the shore, taking up positions against the Beasts Pirates, each occupying a side.

On the Navy side, the leader was Admiral Akainu, followed by five Navy Headquarters Vice Admirals.

On the Beasts Pirates side, the leaders were Heat Disaster King, Plague Disaster Queen, and Drought Disaster Jack, followed by the three Tobiroppo: Fusha, Ulti, and Page One.

Akainu stood proudly, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the Three Calamities:

"Which of you will come to die first? Or you can come together."

"Arrogant!"

Jack could no longer hold back; he charged straight at Akainu.

Boom, boom, boom!

With a figure over ten meters tall and a weight of a thousand tons, every step made the earth tremble.

"Die, Akainu!"

Jack's huge body actually leaped into the air, swinging a fist the size of a sandbag, smashing down fiercely at Akainu from above.

"You don't know when you're dead!"

Akainu sneered coldly.

The Marines, including Fossa, glared back with cold eyes.

Drought Jack of the Beasts Pirates is too stupid; daring to attack Fleet Admiral Akainu alone, he simply doesn't know how to write the word 'death'!

Just as Jack's fist was about to get close, Akainu finally lowered his crossed arms.

Boom!

His right arm turned into scorching magma.

Akainu threw a punch at Jack's fist in the same manner.

"Agni Rabbit!"

The magma arm rapidly extended, colliding instantly with Jack's fist.

"Melt, you foolish fool!"

Akainu was sneering coldly, but in the next moment, his smile froze.

Because.

He discovered that his Agni Rabbit had clearly collided with Jack's fist, yet the opponent's fist did not melt immediately, nor was it even seriously burned.

How is this possible?

In all the years Akainu has lived, he has never seen anyone withstand one of his Agni Rabbits and remain unharmed!

"What exactly is going on?"

Akainu was confused and puzzled.

At this moment, only the sound of Drought Jack's violent roar was heard:

"Die for me!"

The power in the fist suddenly increased several times over.

Akainu's expression changed; he was actually forced back a step due to a momentary lapse in attention.

Behind him.

Fossa and the other Marines wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

Fleet Admiral Akainu was actually forced back; even if it was only a single step, isn't that simply too incredible!

Also, Drought Jack's fist was clearly touched by the magma; why didn't it melt? Even the traces of burns were not obvious?

Fossa and the others were utterly baffled; Akainu himself was baffled.

He was somewhat unable to figure out the situation.

Last time, his Great Eruption, which was merely a glancing blow, pierced a hole through Jack's lungs.

This time, facing his magma head-on, Drought Jack is actually not badly hurt?!
