The sudden arrival of Big Mom was beyond everyone's expectations. The enemy commander breaking into the enemy camp really had a strong pirate color.
However, when the navy reacted, they immediately realized that there was a great opportunity for them.
If BIG MOM can be defeated before the rest of the BIG MOM Pirates arrive, then the war can be said to be half won.
Kuzan didn't hesitate at all. After blocking BIG MOM's attack, he immediately launched a counterattack. Three ice spears condensed from his side, and then with a light wave of Kuzan's hand, the three ice spears shot directly towards BIG MOM in mid-air.
With a whistling sound, the ice spears had already arrived in front of BIG MOM. One spear pierced her forehead, one spear pierced her heart, and the other spear pointed directly at BIG MOM's lower abdomen.
The three ice spears stabbed in different directions, but if any one of them could successfully pierce BIG MOM's body, BIG MOM would instantly lose her combat effectiveness.
"Such an attack"
"Who are you looking down on?"
Big Mom looked at the ice spear that was shooting towards her, with a hint of anger in her eyes. Without any unnecessary movement, she suddenly swung the Napoleon in her hand towards the ice spear that was shooting towards her.
The terrifying domineering aura of the king surged out instantly, condensing into a terrifyingly powerful slash that directly shattered the three ice spears, and then continued to shoot towards Kuzan with undiminished momentum.
The power of the slash that Big Mom launched afterwards was unmatched by anyone else. All the navy noticed the movement on Kuzan's side, and commanders at all levels also turned their eyes towards this place.
Compared to the naval battle with the pirates, the battle between the admiral and BIG MOM obviously concerns them more. The victory or defeat of these two people will directly determine the outcome of this war.
The navy members were still a little nervous. The headquarters dispatched three admirals to conquer Bankoku, which was enough to prove how much the headquarters valued the pirates of Bankoku. Now Admiral Akainu was missing, and Admiral Kizaru was on the way. It was likely that they would not be able to help them in a short time.
The only one they can rely on is Aokiji, their top combat force. If even Aokiji can't stop the opponent, then their navy may have to retreat from Wan Guo first. Once they leave, it will not be so easy to enter Wan Guo's territory again.
"boom!!!"
A loud roar exploded on the ice field, and the shattered ice flowers turned into a cloud of ice mist, which instantly enveloped Kuzan's command ship. The navy could not see the situation on the battlefield clearly, and each of them couldn't help but look worried.
However, this worry did not last long. Suddenly, countless ice cones shot out from the ice fog in the distance and shot directly towards BIG MOM in mid-air.
The ice fog covering the warship quickly dissipated under the blowing of the cold wind, revealing a towering iceberg before everyone's eyes. Kuzan's command ship was firmly wrapped in it. The slash from BIG MOM just now was unable to break through Kuzan's defense at all.
Even now, there is no sign of damage on the iceberg.
The peak of the iceberg extended into icicles, and the icicle that pierced BIG MOM extended from it.
Inside the nearly transparent iceberg, the navy was quickly running down from the warship. The iceberg that protected the warship was hollow, and even at the back of the iceberg, there was a portal reserved for the navy to escape.
This battle is no longer something that ordinary navy can intervene in. If they stay here, they will only hinder Kuzan's performance.
"The power of the natural fruit has been developed quite well!"
Big Mom looked at the incoming ice cones, glanced at the iceberg standing on the ice field, and muttered unhappily. As for Kuzan's attack, Big Mom didn't take it seriously. Zeus under her quickly pulled up the altitude, carrying Big Mom and making evasive maneuvers as it rose.
After chasing with dozens of ice cones without success, Kuzan gave up this method of attack and simply stood at the bow, quietly watching BIG MOM in the air, waiting for his subordinates to evacuate.
As the sailors on board left the warship, Kuzan's order was passed down to all the sailors through the mouth of the messenger. The order was concise and the purpose was clear, which was to let the sailors stay as far away as possible and not be involved in the battle!
Almost everyone got off the boat, leaving only Kuzan on board. However, apart from him, there were two others who did not follow Kuzan's order to leave:
"Kuzan, Big Mom is a user who ate the Soul-Soul Fruit. This woman is gifted and used her own strength to attack the giant village when she was young."
"Her physical strength and her domineering aura are such that even ordinary strong men cannot contend with her."
"Her strength is unquestionable as she is able to stand tall on this sea and establish such a great foundation for the Ten Thousand Nations."
"You need to exploit her weaknesses as a quisling and fight her, avoiding direct confrontation."
The only ones left on the ship were Vice Admiral Tsuru and her adjutant, Tina. A Vice Admiral of Tsuru's age, she'd experienced countless battles, both large and small, and avoiding the aftermath of powerful clashes was no concern for her.
In this situation, Vice Admiral Tsuru can even give some pointers on what Kuzan and BIG MOM need to pay attention to when fighting.
"I understand, Vice Admiral Tsuru. Thank you."
"This place will soon become a battlefield. You and the other marines should leave for now."
Faced with He's kindness, Kuzan nodded slightly and accepted He's suggestion, but he was still worried about the little old lady staying here, so he reminded her.
Crane has a high status in the navy, but she is different from Sengoku and Garp. She is not famous for her fighting ability. Kuzan has rarely seen Crane take action, and only knows that Crane is the user of the Wash-Wash Fruit.
Facing a strong opponent of BIG MOM's level, Kuzan doesn't want to be distracted if possible and wants to concentrate on fighting.
"Kuzan brat, don't get carried away!"
"I'm not so useless yet that I need a brat like you to worry about me!"
"Big Mom's attack is coming, be careful!"
He listened to Kuzan's caring words, but showed no sign of appreciating them. After laughing and cursing, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed towards the sky.
Kuzan looked in the direction the crane was pointing, and happened to see Big Mom standing on Zeus, swooping down quickly.
The appearance of Zeus under BIG MOM's feet is very different from before. The white cloud holding BIG MOM has now turned black, and its size is expanding rapidly.
Dark clouds covered the sky above the iceberg. Thunder roared in the clouds, and arcs of lightning flashed in the clouds, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing without a trace.
BIG MOM stood above the clouds, with flames burning above her head. Her eyes were full of ferocious excitement, like a man-eating devil.
"Is that also Big Mom's ability?"
The Navy doesn't actually have much information about BIG MOM. Their impression of BIG MOM still remains from the time when BIG MOM attacked the Valley of Gods with Rocks.
Over the years, as the Homies she created grew, her fighting style also changed.
Kuzan was in the iceberg, looking at the dark clouds hanging above his head, and couldn't help but be a little dazed. Although BIG MOM's attack had not yet arrived, Kuzan seemed to have guessed how the other party would attack him.
"boom!!!!"
Suddenly, there was a loud thunder, and a blue-yellow lightning bolt fell directly from the dark clouds, hitting the towering iceberg with lightning speed.
The nearly 100-meter-high iceberg was hit by lightning, and a huge gap was blasted out. The terrifying power contained in the lightning instantly penetrated the iceberg's defense.
However, after blasting the iceberg apart, the lightning lost all its strength and dissipated into the air.
"call out--"
Just after the lightning disappeared, BIG MOM jumped down from the clouds. BIG MOM, wearing a pink long dress, instantly turned into a red stream of light and fell directly towards the warship in the iceberg.
When Kuzan was shocked by BIG MOM's strange abilities and powerful attacks, he keenly caught BIG MOM's movements, quickly jumped back, and left the spot.
The next second, BIG MOM's huge body fell from the sky and landed directly on the warship.
"boom!!!"
After a loud bang, wood chips flew everywhere, and the place where Kuzan had just stood had turned into a huge hole with a diameter of nearly ten meters.
Kuzan dodged and landed again, then looked in the direction where he had just stood, and happened to see BIG MOM had flown out of the pit and was standing on the deck.
Big Mom held the long sword in one hand and looked up at Kuzan and Crane, exuding an astonishing aura.
"To be or not to be?!"
Big Mom looked at Kuzan and Crane who were not far away with a menacing look, and suddenly grinned and asked, with a look of strong expectation in her eyes.
Soul spell.
The power of the Soul-Soul Fruit is not limited to the ability to create Homies. If it were only this level of power, it would not be able to provide assistance to a monster like her.
The core power of the Soul-Soul Fruit is actually the Soul Spell.
By questioning humans, one can judge their lives. Even if they feel a hint of fear, their souls will be taken away instantly. This ability can be considered a power of the rule system.
After witnessing BIG MOM's terrifying power, it is not easy for ordinary people not to feel fear when facing her.
Not everyone can say something like "Just the Four Emperors" in front of Big Mom.
Big Mom looked at Kuzan, Crane, and Tina with anticipation. Young Tina had witnessed Big Mom's terrifying power, so facing the ferocious Big Mom, she couldn't help but look away, not daring to meet her gaze.
There was only a slight trace of fear in his heart, but this was the prerequisite for activating the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit.
Catching Tina's emotions behind the crane, Big Mom's eyes widened and her smile became even brighter. She was about to grab Tina's soul and activate the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, but at this moment, she suddenly lost her target.
"Huh?!" Big Mom's face showed surprise and she looked at Tina who was standing behind Crane.
At this moment, Tina's wrist was held in He's hand, and there was no trace of the fearful expression on her face. On the contrary, Tina was smiling, and seemed to be in a good mood?!
"What's going on?!"
Big Mom couldn't help but gasp at this bizarre scene. Her devil fruit's power had failed? This was the first time she had encountered such a thing.
Tina's situation is different from any she has encountered before. In BIG MOM's life, there are indeed some strong people who have no fear in their hearts when facing her. Such people can withstand the power of her soul spell.
But Tina wasn't the type of person who wasn't afraid of her from the beginning, but that emotion seemed to have been forcibly dispelled! To the point that the soul spell had no effect on her.
"Is that you?" Big Mom's eyes fell on Crane. If there was any special person or thing around Tina that helped her, then the Crane holding Tina's wrist was undoubtedly the one who caused this phenomenon!
A feeling of uneasiness emerged in his heart. Before BIG MOM could make any further move, Kuzan's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. At the same time, a ball of ice mist suddenly appeared on the deck and was brought to BIG MOM's side by the wind.
Kuzan's figure quickly condensed out from the ice mist. Sensing Kuzan's breath, BIG MOM quickly turned her head to look, only to find that Kuzan had spread out his arms at this time, and thick frost gushed out directly, hitting BIG MOM's body.
ICE BALL!
The frost enveloped BIGMOM completely. After a few seconds, Kuzan slowly lowered his arms. BIG MOM in front of him was already frozen in a huge ice ball.
At this time, the morning fog covering the port had dissipated, and the sunlight shone down, falling on the ice ball, reflecting a crystal light.
"Is this a win?"
At this time, He had already let go of Tina's wrist. The young female navy looked at Big Mom who was frozen in the ice ball by Kuzan. After a brief hesitation, a hint of joy appeared on her face.
“If only it were that simple, that would be great.”
He lowered his eyelids slightly and whispered to himself.
Just as He said this, BIG MOM in the ice hockey suddenly turned her eyes and glared at Kuzan in front of her.
"Crack--" The next second, countless cracks suddenly appeared on the round ice ball.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the entire ice ball exploded instantly. Big Mom, who was inside the ice ball, stretched out her body and broke through the ice directly, slashing down at Kuzan with the long knife in her hand:
"Weiguo!"
The terrifying domineering aura instantly condensed into a substantial slash, slashing directly towards Kuzan's position. The terrifying power set off a violent hurricane on the ice field.
Ding!!!!
As the slash fell, Kuzan unexpectedly had a long sword in his hand. Facing BIG MOM's mighty power, Kuzan did not dodge or evade. The armed color domineering gathered on the long sword, and he held the sword upright.
A crisp golden sound suddenly rang out on the deck. Kuzan only resisted for a moment, and the deck under his feet could no longer withstand this terrifying force and directly collapsed. Kuzan's figure was also directly turned into a stream of light under BIG MOM's slash, piercing through the deck, smashing into the thick ice surface, and disappeared without a trace.
The young Kuzan could not withstand the innate power of BIG MOM at all, and BIG MOM's dominance was also above Kuzan!
With just one strike, Kuzan was blown away and fell into the ice field, his life or death unknown.
After slashing Kuzan with a sword, BIG MOM slowly turned around and looked at He and Tina.
She seemed to be still brooding over the fact that her devil fruit ability had just failed. She gently swung the Napoleon in her hand in the direction of Tina, and the sword slashed past Tina's side and slammed into the cabin with a loud bang.
After threateningly swinging her sword in the air, Big Mom stared at Tina and asked, "To live or to die!?"
At this moment, the fear in Tina's heart was even greater than before. Even Admiral Kuzan was no match for BIG MOM. She seemed to be able to see her own death.
"bass!"
Tina boldly drew a long knife from her waist, suppressed the fear in her heart, flashed in front of He, protected He behind her, and pointed the knife at BIG MOM.
"Lieutenant General He, please leave quickly. Tina is here to protect you!"
The young marine always does things that surprise Crane.
Tina’s fear of Big Mom is real, but her determination to protect Crane is also real.
The enthusiasm of young and passionate people is often the best thing to overcome fear.
