Chapter 359 Kuzan is really amazing~ (two in one)
The purple giant that broke through the wall instantly attracted everyone's attention. The navy who saw this scene finally stopped suppressing the pent-up emotions in their hearts, and cheers instantly rang out in the harbor.
"It's Director Magellan!!!"
"We're sure to win! Attack!!!"
The navy's shouts could be heard from far away. Even Tsugakuni Yoshiichi, who had already flown a long distance in the air, heard the movement above the port. He couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of Impelton. Seeing the excited navy, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi couldn't help but smile.
"call out!"
The sound of breaking through the air was heard above the warship, and the figure of Tsugekuni Yoshiichi fell rapidly from the air and landed on the bow. The new navy on the deck saw Tsugekuni Yoshiichi returning to the ship and immediately cheered.
In recent years, Yuichiro Tsugakuni has rarely been in charge of things, and many affairs of the new navy have been entrusted to Yixiao and others to handle. But even so, Yuichiro Tsugakuni is still the backbone of the new navy.
The powerful strength of Tsugakuni Yoshiichiro is often the confidence of the new navy.
Seeing that Jiguo Yuanyi returned to the ship, the hearts of the new sailors immediately calmed down.
Tsugikoku Yuichi, who was on the bow, quickly scanned the deck but didn't see Cyrus. He then quickly spread his Observation Haki and soon sensed the presence of Cyrus and Scarlett's family in the cabin. He immediately smiled and shouted to his subordinates on the deck:
"Head count."
"Officers of all ranks, look around you and see if anyone is missing!"
"We're getting ready to leave here!!"
Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's clear voice reached everyone's ears. One of the officers standing on the deck heard Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's words and replied with a smile:
"Everyone has already arrived, just waiting for you to come back!"
While the officer was answering Tsugakuni Yoshiichi, Yixiao and Xiong returned to the deck one after another. Upon hearing his subordinate's response, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi nodded slightly, and then his order spread throughout the warship: "Set sail! Return to Thunder God Island!"
Heading towards Impelton, the ship began to maneuver.
As the Dawn warship began to turn and accelerate away from Impel Down, the support fleet from the Navy Headquarters also quickly passed through the "Gate of Justice" and approached the direction of Impel Down.
On the command ship of the headquarters fleet.
Aokiji stood at the bow of the ship, not paying attention to the suppression operation at the port of Impel Down City, but casting his gaze on the Dawn warship that had sailed far away on the other side, with some nostalgia in his eyes.
For some reason, Aokiji recalled the scene of his first meeting with Yoriichi Tsugakuni on Vice Admiral Garp's ship.
"Do you like the sea, too?"
This was the first sentence Aokiji said when he met Yoshiichi Tsugakuni on Vice Admiral Garp's ship.
Over the years, Aokiji witnessed Yoshiichi Tsugakuni grow from a cadet at a naval academy to a navy admiral. He personally fought against the legendary pirate Shiki the Golden Lion with Yoshiichi Tsugakuni and resisted the behemoth in the New World, the Beasts Pirates.
Once upon a time, Aokiji thought that he and Yoriichi Tsugakuni would become the closest comrades in the future, just like Marshal Sengoku and Vice Admiral Garp.
But in the blink of an eye, he and Yoriichi Tsugikuni were already walking on two completely different paths.
After parting at the holy land, Aokiji never met Yoshikazu Tsugakuni again.
"general!"
"The ship carrying the bounty criminal Tsugakuni Yoriichi has been spotted at eleven o'clock."
"News has come from Impel Down that Tsugikuni Yoriichi and his accomplices have breached the Undersea Prison and taken two prisoners away."
"The riot in Impel Down is now under control under the leadership of Director Magellan."
"Should we go after Tsugakugo Yuichi and his gang?"
The person reporting to Admiral Aokiji at this moment was a young lieutenant with a serious expression. Judging from his youthful face, one could tell that he was no more than 20 years old. But strangely, this young lieutenant had a head full of white hair.
The second lieutenant's name is Smoker. Given his age and ability, he should have continued his studies in the school of the Naval Headquarters. In the future, after graduating from the Naval Academy, he will go out into the world as a captain to gain experience and guard a region.
However, due to some reasons, Smoker was kicked out of the Naval Academy early and was awarded the rank of Ensign. In the system of the Naval Headquarters, the starting points of a Colonel and a Lieutenant are very different.
Fortunately, the chief instructor of the Naval Academy, former Admiral Zephyr, did not want a young talent like Smoker to be buried, so he used his personal connections to send Smoker to Admiral Aokiji. Although Smoker would still be transferred from the headquarters and sent to the four seas.
However, being transferred to the Four Seas after passing through the general's supervision is completely different from being transferred to the Four Seas directly as a second lieutenant.
Since he was sent by Zephyr himself, Aokiji treated Smoker very well and made him his messenger. Although Smoker was not able to become the chief officer in charge of a specific matter under Aokiji, he did not hold real power.
But in fact, the position of messenger has a very special status in the military system.
Smoker can know Aokiji's orders at the first time, and if he is willing, he can learn a lot in this position.
When reporting to Aokiji, Smoker's face looked quite ugly.
He simply couldn't imagine that the person he had always admired would actually do something like jailbreaking.
Magellan was currently on the battlefield and had no time to report more specific details to the headquarters, so the intelligence received by Smoker and other navy officers was incomplete. Smoker therefore directly attributed the responsibility for the prisoner escape to Yoshikazu Tsugakuni and his group.
What would you do if an idol you have always admired suddenly did something that goes against your values and outlook on life?
That's naturally pink to black
I'm afraid not many people can understand Smoker's feelings at this time.
It just so happens that Aokiji can do it.
Glancing sideways at the gloomy Smoker, Aokiji suddenly smiled slightly:
"Smoker, you don't fully understand Yoriichi Tsugakuni, nor do you fully understand his new navy."
"Then it's as you wish."
"Let me show you with my own eyes Yoriichi Tsugikuni and his new navy."
"Pass on my order, turn around and chase after Yoriichi Tsugikuni and his accomplices!"
Although Smoker didn't know what Aokiji meant, he adhered to the duties of a messenger. After bowing, he quickly turned around and conveyed Aokiji's orders to each department.
In the fleet, the chief officers of the other ships received Aokiji's orders one after another and were all puzzled.
"What? The Admiral ordered the pursuit of Tsugikuni Yoriichi's ship?"
"this"
"Turn, turn quickly!"
The chief officers of each department under Aokiji are not rookies like Smoker. Even if the generals who have been in the Marine Headquarters for many years have not had direct contact with Yoriichi Tsugakuni, they have heard much more about him than trainee soldiers like Smoker.
Although they didn't know why Aokiji gave such an order, they did not dare to neglect it and ordered to turn around.
There is no other way. This is the navy. Even if there is a dead end ahead, when the general gives the order, you have to go through it even if it is a dead end.
The "Deserter King" should be thankful that his "operation" was not discovered by Akainu, otherwise, he would not be able to stay in the Marine Headquarters because he would be blasted into pieces by Akainu.
The change of direction of the Navy Headquarters Fleet was soon noticed by the people on the warship Dawn.
When the navy in the observation room was about to report to Yoshikazu Tsugakuni, he was settling Scarlett and Rebecca's mother and daughter in the cabin.
The golden flames completely enveloped the mother and daughter. The terrifying flames that could burn a CP0 like Stussy into ashes were now slowly "flowing" on the skin surface of Scarlett and Rebecca.
Wherever the golden flames reached, the scratches and burns on Scarlett and Rebecca's bodies disappeared without a trace.
"My ability can only heal injuries. There's no way to recover my energy and physical strength."
"They probably haven't had a good rest during this period. They will wake up after a good sleep."
"Cyrus, don't worry, everything will be fine."
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's gaze swept over Scarlett and Rebecca. Through the transparent world, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi could accurately grasp the two's physical conditions. Although he was not a doctor and could only rely on his devil fruit ability to treat injuries, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi was probably more accurate than many famous doctors in diagnosing injuries.
"Um"
"Thanks"
Before Cyrus could continue, Tsugikoku Yoriichi slapped Cyrus on the shoulder and interrupted him, "Stop talking nonsense. The World Government probably took action against them because of me."
“This is what I should do.”
"I'm sorry, Cyrus, for involving your family."
Hearing what Tsugikuni Yoriichi said, Cyrus lowered his head slightly to look at Scarlett and her daughter, shook his head, and said firmly:
"You're doing the right thing, and so am I."
"I only blame myself for not being strong enough to protect them,"
Hearing Cyrus's self-blaming expression, Tsugikoku Yoriichi couldn't help but say, "Don't we have a few natural-type devil fruits?"
"The Smoke Fruit, the Flame-Flame Fruit, and the Thunder Fruit."
"Cyrus, you can..."
Before Tsugikoku Yoshiichi could finish, Cyrus shook his head and interrupted, "If you become a user with special abilities, won't you become afraid of water?"
"Mr. Yixiao, Xiong, Abel, and you have all become users of special abilities."
"If I also become an esper, if something really happens, I'm afraid Mr. Mihawk won't be able to handle it alone."
"and"
"Each element of the natural system represents an extremely powerful force. Let's use them to strengthen our new navy."
"General, what you are going to do requires a constant supply of fresh blood."
"If Rebecca wants to become a marine in the future, I believe she will be able to surpass me, her father. By then, if these natural devil fruits haven't found their owners yet, I will shamelessly ask you for one."
Cyrus smiled and said words of refusal. Upon hearing this, Ji Guoyuan couldn't help but pat Cyrus's shoulder gently.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni knew that this was because Cyrus was afraid that he would waste the power of the devil fruit.
In this world, natural-type devil fruits are very rare, but they do exist.
However, there are only a few people who can grow into admirals with the help of natural devil fruits.
Fruit abilities, Haki, and sword skills are essentially the same thing. To reach the pinnacle, one needs talent. There are millions of people with special abilities, but only one in ten thousand can awaken their fruit abilities.
“Knock knock!”
Just then, there were two knocks on the cabin door. Tsugakuin and Cyrus exchanged a glance, and Cyrus stood up to open the door. Tsugakuin, with a gentle wave of his hand, vanished the golden flames that had been attached to Scarlett and Rebecca.
"Lieutenant General Cyrus!"
"The Navy Headquarters' fleet is chasing us!"
The subordinates' reports were heard in the cabin. Ji Guoyuan was a little surprised when he heard it, and then he quickly left the cabin and went to the deck.
At this time, Yixiao, Mihawk and others were standing on the deck at the stern of the warship, looking at the rapidly approaching naval fleet.
Several people noticed the arrival of Jiguo Yuanyi and turned around to look at Jiguo Yuanyi.
Walking to the side of the ship, Ji Guoyuan looked up at the naval fleet in the distance and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling a little strange:
"What's that Kuzan guy doing?"
"Why are they chasing us instead of advancing into the town to suppress the prisoner riot?"
As Tsugukuni Yoshiichi was speaking, the chief officer in the bridge, Ferland, quickly came to Tsugukuni Yoshiichi's side and suggested, "Admiral, in order to take care of the 'patient', our warship has not been able to reach its full speed."
"Should we speed up and get rid of them?"
Hearing this, Yunyi shook his head: "There is no need for that."
"Just let them back off when they realize the difficulty."
"Yixiao, I'll leave this to you."
Hearing what Tsugikoku Yoshiichi said, Yixiao nodded slightly: "I will try my best not to hurt them."
As he spoke, Yixiao lowered his body, bent his knees slightly, and jumped directly onto the guardrail at the stern of the ship. He held the long sword horizontally in front of him and slowly pulled out the blade.
Yixiao's action was also noticed by the lookouts of the Aokiji Fleet, and there were bursts of exclamations from the observation deck:
"A smile. It's just a smile!"
"Avoid, pay attention to Tianshan, everyone avoid!!!"
Panicked and sharp roars were heard on the decks of various ships, even on the command ship where Kuzan was.
Smoker looked at the panicked navy around him with some confusion, and couldn't help but ask Aokiji in front of him:
"What's going on?"
"Why are they suddenly like this? A smile is..."
After hearing what Smoker said, Kuzan was silent for a moment and then said:
"Smoker, go find something to grab onto, or you'll get thrown off."
"The attack we are about to face is the ability of Tsugikuni Yoriichi's closest companion."
"You will see how vast this ocean is."
As Kuzan was speaking, the originally clear sky had changed color.
Seeing Aokiji raise his head, Smoker couldn't help but raise his head as well. His eyes changed from confusion at first to astonishment, and then he widened his eyes and couldn't help but growl:
"Meteor shower?!!!"
Aokiji looked at the sky that had changed color and couldn't help but murmur:
"No matter how many times you watch it, you'll still be amazed."
The clear sky had turned a fiery red at this moment. Sharp whistles were heard from the sky, and countless huge meteorites passed through the atmosphere and fell rapidly towards the sea.
There was no need for Kuzan to pass on the order, as the headquarters' warships all stopped at this moment.
“Bang—”
Not long after, a huge meteorite as big as a football field crashed into the sea first. On the calm sea surface, huge waves hundreds of meters high suddenly arose, which quickly "grew" into a tsunami and rushed towards the headquarters' fleet.
Shortly after the first meteorite fell into the sea, more than a dozen meteorites of similar size fell into the sea in front of the naval fleet.
Tsunamis and earthquakes occurred simultaneously at this moment.
Looking at the world-destroying power in front of him, Smoker's hands gripping the railing couldn't help but loosen.
Grab the railing?!
In the face of such force, is it useful to hold on to the railing?
"Smoker, hold on to the railing, it's not over yet!"
At this moment, Aokiji's voice reached Smoker's ears. Before Smoker could come to his senses, Aokiji's figure had quickly disappeared from the deck.
"Ice Age—"
In mid-air, two icicles extended rapidly from Aokiji's hands and touched the approaching waves. At the moment the icicles touched the sea water, the center of the waves was instantly frozen into solid ice. At the same time, the ice was still spreading rapidly.
In just a dozen seconds, the rapidly "growing" tsunami, along with the sea surface, turned into solid ice.
On the other side, the Dawn warship had already taken off from the sea and quickly flew away from this sea area before the tsunami formed.
In the air, Jiguo Yuanyi looked at the sea in the distance that had turned into an ice field, smiled and sighed softly:
"Kuzan is getting stronger and stronger!"
“That’s amazing~”
