Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 219

A dazzling beam of light swept across the sky, cleaving it in two.

"It's Admiral Kizaru."

"The flying squirrel beside Akainu said in a low voice."

"It seems we've already clashed with him."

Wearing a coat of justice and a navy hat, Akainu stood with his arms crossed in the distance from the warship, his expression cold and murderous, his eyes even more piercing.

"That kid..."

His tone carried a hint of murderous intent.

"We must kill him this time!"

……

On the red earth continent, not far from the Sabaody Archipelago.

Holy Land Marie Gioia.

One of the Five Elders of the World Government gazed at the dazzling beam of light that cleaved the sky in the distance, his eyes narrowing slightly:

"Kizaru... that kid actually made him take this seriously."

"It's really rare."

"It seems his skills have improved quite a bit since two years ago."

"This is getting increasingly troublesome. I never expected them to attack a Celestial Dragon." The bald Five Elder, holding the First Generation Kitetsu, had a cold look in his eyes: "Is this a formal declaration of war against our World Government?"

"Heh, going against the heavens, overestimating one's own abilities."

The five elders, with their snow-white beards, sneered.

Wearing a flat hat and sporting a bushy white beard, the Five Elders sat on the sofa and said, "CP0 and Akainu have already gone. As long as Kizaru can hold him off, we can completely eliminate this thorn in our side in the Sabaody Archipelago this time."

The bald Five Elders, with his eyes closed, said, "I just hope nothing else goes wrong..."

Before he could finish speaking...

A crimson slash shot into the sky from afar, instantly shattering the heavens.

Sensing the power of that sword strike, the five elders all paled.

"This is... the moon?!"

The bald Five Elders, wielding the first generation Kitetsu, had an incredulous glint in their eyes: "Wasn't this sword supposed to have vanished into history? How could it reappear?!"

"Such swordsmanship... is indeed no less than that of Hawkeye."

"No, with this domineering aura, he's even stronger than Hawkeye. I'm afraid even the third brother might not be his match."

The bald Five Elders said in a low, shocked voice.

"To reach this level at only twenty years old..."

The blond, bearded Five Elders said grimly, "Without a doubt, he is far more dangerous than Roger, Whitebeard, and the others!"

"This time, we must eliminate him at all costs!"

"Can Kizaru hold him off?"

"..."

…………

Momousagi and Tina arrived at the coast together.

At a glance, one could see the two people fighting in the sea outside the Sabaody Archipelago.

Upon seeing the heavily wounded Kizaru, the two women's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Admiral Kizaru, he's actually been beaten to this state..."

Tina murmured in shock, her heart filled with turbulent emotions.

Momousagi was also quite surprised.

She originally thought that Ron, who wielded the Blood Moon Blade, was at most on par with Kizaru, and that Kizaru would probably lose in a prolonged battle.

But now it seems... there's more!

To know.

Even when facing the Four Emperors, Admiral Kizaru, a user of the Flash ability, had never suffered such injuries.

Could it be that……

A startling guess surfaced in Momousagi's mind.

Has Ron's current combat power surpassed that of an admiral?!

……

"Eight-foot beautiful magatama."

"Round dance!"

Kizaru was sent flying a thousand meters by a single sword strike from Roon, who was wielding the Blood Blade Moon.

A bottomless circular slash appeared on the sea surface below.

Kizaru finally managed to stabilize himself in the air.

Ron appeared above him in a flash. In his narrowed eyes, the crimson blade of the Blood Moon Blade in his hand, wreathed in intense black flames formed from the flowing Haki and sword aura, slashed down at him.

"Flaming Tiger!"

"Dog bites Guren!"

A giant lava shaped like a dog's head shot out from a distance and crashed into the black flame tiger formed from the slash!

The two sides collided violently!

The terrifying blast of intense heat swept in all directions.

Countless lava and black flames fell onto the sea, instantly boiling the ocean below, with steam and bubbles churning wildly!

With blood dripping from his shoulders, hands, and left leg, Kizaru stood in the air, glanced back at the warships appearing on the sea behind him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:

"It's finally here... If it hadn't come soon, my old bones really wouldn't have been able to hold on."

Clad in a cloak of justice, Akainu, his face cold and ruthless, leaped high from the deck of the warship, unleashing a massive, magma-like right fist at Ron above the sea, carrying a terrifying killing intent.

"Big fire-breathing!"

Facing the terrifying lava below, resembling a volcanic eruption.

Ron, who was suspended in mid-air, smiled slightly.

With this kind of imposing manner, does he really think I'm the same young man from Beihai four years ago?

Sakazuki Akainu is quite arrogant, isn't he?

Did you think you could kill me with this level of strength?

That being the case...

Ron unleashed his full power.

A rolling wave of air emanated from him and spread out in all directions, tearing apart the dark clouds and causing the sea to churn.

Level 8 Armament Haki, Ryuo, enveloped his entire body, almost becoming material!

He raised the slender, blood-red blade in his hand, its blade spiraling with a powerful, domineering aura, and a surge of sword intent soared into the sky.

The crimson sword light instantly filled the entire sky.

Under the wide-eyed gazes of Momousagi and Tina.

He slashed down with his blood-red blade.

192, Akainu loses an arm, a combined attack from two admirals!

When Ron killed a Celestial Dragon in the Sabaody Archipelago, attracting the attention of Admirals Kizaru and Akainu, the world was shocked.

The Alabasta Kingdom in the first half of the Grand Line.

A major battle is also taking place there.

Faced with the rebel army about to storm the capital and Crocodile, who led the Baroque Works to occupy the palace, Princess Vivi, in this desperate situation, remembered the second sentence Ron had said to her that night.

“If this country becomes very dangerous, you can tell Crocodile that I took that stone tablet.”

So, when the Kingdom of Alabasta was on the verge of defeat, she spoke with a resolute expression to Crocodile, who was standing at the palace gate laughing triumphantly: "I don't know what you want to get from this country, but many years ago someone told me that he took a stone tablet that was originally placed in the Temple of the Spirits in this country."

Crocodile's laughter faltered, his gaze turning icy as he looked at Vivi standing on the shattered street: "What...did you say?!"

“That stone tablet should be what you want,” Vivi said, looking directly at him without fear. “If you want it, go find that person and get it.”

Crocodile, his face grim, reached out and grasped at Princess Vivi in ​​mid-air. A giant hand formed from the yellow sand and squeezed her tightly.

"who is it?!"

"Ron the Traveler."
