Squard, hearing Marco's angry roar, snorted coldly, "Marco, don't pretend. As a division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, it's impossible for you not to know about this. As for Akira, needless to say, he hasn't had any news for these past ten years. We've been looking for him, but we haven't been able to find him. But now, as soon as the war starts, he appears. If you tell me that there's nothing fishy about this, I won't believe it."
"This is the deal you made with the Navy, selling out the names of these pirate crews under our command, in exchange for the lives of your most important son, Akira, and Ace. That's why the Navy secretly released Akira, am I wrong?"
At this time, Whitebeard, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "Ace is Roger's son, that is indeed a fact. I didn't expect their preparations to actually be so thorough, manipulating you, who are the easiest to be shaken by this matter. Their tactics are even better, I have to admit that. But..."
Speaking to this point, Whitebeard's expression became very serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Akira is an important son of mine, that's right, but I really didn't know that he was being held by the Navy in Impel Down. If I had known, I would have gone to save him long ago, instead of waiting until now."
Whitebeard didn't deny his high regard for Akira. Unlike other people, Akira had grown up on the Moby Dick since he was a few years old. He could be considered one of the earliest pirates in the Whitebeard Pirates, even earlier than some of the division commanders. Those pirates who had joined the Whitebeard Pirates early on all knew the relationship between Akira and Whitebeard. If they were Whitebeard's crew members and 'sons', then Akira was Whitebeard's own son, even closer than a biological son.
In their opinion, if Whitebeard had really confirmed that Akira was being held in Impel Down, he would definitely have tried his best to rescue him, and wouldn't have let Akira be locked up in Impel Down for ten years. Akira had known this from the start, so he didn't want Whitebeard to know that he had been captured by the Navy.
And at this time, Navy Admiral Aokiji suddenly darted out, rushing in front of Buggy and the others all at once, and then preparing to use his abilities to freeze Buggy and the others. But just as he was about to succeed, suddenly, an equally swift figure arrived in front of them.
"Clash."
Aokiji and Akira collided fiercely. The person who had suddenly appeared in front of Aokiji was Akira.
Akira certainly knew the Navy's purpose. They wanted to use a conspiracy to destroy Whitebeard, but they were worried that these methods were despicable and would be rejected by the people of the world, so they were unwilling to broadcast it live.
However, Akira certainly wouldn't let the Navy's ideas succeed. The Navy didn't want to expose their sinister methods, so he would insist on exposing the Navy's conspiracy, letting the people of the world see their despicable nature. He also wanted to see if, under the eyes of the world, Sengoku could make that decision.
"It's you."
Aokiji saw that the person blocking him was actually Akira, and his expression immediately darkened. They saw that Akira's right arm had been frozen by his ability, but soon, his frozen right arm broke free again. His abilities weren't very effective against Akira.
Akira said, "It's me. It's been a long time, Aokiji. I still remember that you were the one who sent me to Impel Down, and you also said that we would never meet again. I didn't expect that we would have a day to meet again, right?"
Aokiji looked at Akira coldly and said, "I didn't expect it either, but since you dared to appear here, then don't even think about leaving today. This will be the place where you and your pirate crew are completely annihilated."
Akira laughed and said, "Is that so? But you in the Navy don't want the world to know the truth, I insist on letting the world know."
Saying that, Akira suddenly turned his head and said to Buggy and the others, "Buggy, hurry up and leave. Remember, you must protect the Den Den Mushi and broadcast the result of this war, let the people of the world see the process of this war, let them see how despicable the Navy is, how they deceive the world."
Buggy and the others had originally been startled by Aokiji, who had rushed over. They only breathed a sigh of relief after being saved by Akira. Now, after hearing Akira's words, Buggy immediately said with an arrogant expression, "Don't worry, the video Den Den Mushi is in my hands, no one can take it away. I will definitely protect it and broadcast the entire process."
Saying that, Buggy quickly led his followers to retreat.
Seeing that Aokiji hadn't eliminated Buggy and the others, Sengoku on the execution platform roared angrily, "Quickly send someone to deal with those guys, you must turn off the video Den Den Mushi."
However, because the Navy had collectively retreated before, there weren't too many Navy soldiers left on the battlefield. More importantly, there weren't many people who could eliminate Buggy and the others all at once. After all, although Buggy wasn't strong, those followers under him had some strength. Ordinary people weren't easy to deal with. That's why he had let Aokiji deal with them before, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Akira halfway.
Aokiji's figure flashed, preparing to pursue Buggy and the others, but Akira's speed was even faster, blocking him again.
"Clash!"
The two collided again, but this time Akira used the Death God Blade. Although it wasn't unsheathed, it still blocked Aokiji's path forward.
"This road is blocked, Admiral Aokiji!"
Seeing that Akira was blocking him tightly, Aokiji knew that he had no hope of quickly getting rid of him, so he stopped instead.
"It seems that ten years of prison life hasn't weakened your skills much."
Akira grinned and said, "Although you can imprison my person, you can't imprison my thoughts. Although it's difficult for my body to move, it doesn't mean that I can't exercise. On the contrary, ten years has actually allowed me to properly recall everything from the past, discover a lot of problems, and correct them. So, if you think that I'm not as good as before, then you're very wrong. Now, the one who needs to be careful isn't me, but you, Aokiji."
"Ryūjin Jakka!"
Akira whispered, pulling out a Zanpakutō with a relatively ordinary appearance. Then, he whispered the release phrase, "All Things in the Universe, Turn to Ashes! Ryūjin Jakka!"
After Shikai, Ryūjin Jakka immediately emitted an amazing aura. Aokiji, facing Akira, didn't dare to be careless at all. Speaking of which, he hadn't experienced Ryūjin Jakka's abilities yet, but the amazing heat radiating from Ryūjin Jakka after its release still made him very wary.
Aokiji spat out a mouthful of cold air, forming an ice blade, and then quickly rushed towards Akira. And Akira also rushed towards Aokiji, holding Ryūjin Jakka.
"Clang!"
The ice blade and Ryūjin Jakka collided, making a collision sound, but then there was a cracking sound. They saw Aokiji's ice blade actually being cut into pieces by Ryūjin Jakka, inch by inch. Not only that, but Ryūjin Jakka actually emitted flame-like heat, quickly melting these broken ice blades.
Aokiji's expression changed, and his entire body suddenly emitted an amazing cold air, quickly attacking Akira, freezing Akira and Ryūjin Jakka all at once. But this freezing didn't even last for a second. It quickly cracked open, and then was melted away, not even leaving a bit of ice chips behind.
Aokiji looked at Ryūjin Jakka, which was emitting flames in Akira's hand, and said with a heavy expression, "A fire-type ability?"
There were many abilities that could destroy his freezing, but there were really few people who could evaporate his freezing in an instant like Akira. Among the Navy, there was only Akainu. And the flames that Ryūjin Jakka emitted undoubtedly showed that this Ryūjin Jakka had flame-like abilities.
Akira raised Ryūjin Jakka and said, "Blade Name: Ryūjin Jakka, the strongest flame-type Zanpakutō, possessing the strongest attack power and combat power, its ability restrains you perfectly."
"What a Ryūjin Jakka!" Aokiji praised, and then said, "Restrains me? That's not necessarily true!"
"Ice Ball!"
They saw five ice pillars released from Aokiji's palm, quickly shooting towards Akira, wanting to freeze Akira.
But Akira smiled faintly, and waved Ryūjin Jakka in his hand, "Jōkaku Enjō!"
The instant Ryūjin Jakka was waved, it formed a tornado-shaped flame wall, completely wrapping Aokiji's ice pillars, and then quickly rotating and burning. In just a short period of time, it turned all the ice pillars into ashes, and also swept towards Aokiji's location, forcing Aokiji to use his abilities again to block the attack.
"What strong attack power!"
Aokiji looked at Akira and Ryūjin Jakka with a serious gaze. Akira had only waved his sword once, and not only had he resolved his attack, but he had also forced him to retreat a distance.
"His strength seems to have become even stronger than before, it seems that it's no less than ours."
Although they had only exchanged a few moves, he had seen Akira's strength. Akira's strength was already not weak, and with these powerful weapons, the combination was even more terrifying. More importantly, you never knew how many abilities his Death God Blade still had. He would catch you off guard without warning, which was what Aokiji was most wary of.
"Next, it's my turn!"
Akira suddenly raised Ryūjin Jakka. In an instant, flames were released from Ryūjin Jakka's blade. Then, these flames formed a terrifying flame wall, like a giant hand, surrounding Aokiji.
Aokiji moved quickly, wanting to dodge the flame hand, but the flames seemed to have eyes, quickly pursuing him, forcing Aokiji to stop and use his abilities to confront those flames. Fortunately, he was an Ice-Ice Fruit ability user, and fire and ice restrained each other, so although there were a lot of flames, and they were hot, they couldn't burn Aokiji. It just required him to waste time to resist.
