Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 978 It must be the fruit of everyone

Returning to consciousness, Akainu reached out and took off the oxygen inhaler on the bridge of his nose, and slowly sat up from the hospital bed.

His limbs were weak and he couldn't use his strength. He touched his still groggy head and asked with a frown:

"How long have I been in a coma?"

"It's been two weeks, Sakaski, this time is really too dangerous..."

Seeing him waking up, Huang Yuan was overjoyed and leaned over, explaining the situation quickly with Bilibala.

He didn't make up for Renn, and when he rushed over, Bailong rescued him in time, Whitebeard fell, and the war ended on top... These things after Akainu fell into a coma were briefly explained.

"So that's how it is. It's really ugly to rely on other people not to kill the killer to survive."

Sakaski held his forehead that was still aching, and said indifferently.

Yellow Ape: "..."

Brother, don't be so serious, being able to save your life is already a blessing in misfortune.

As for being humiliated by being defeated... come on, he's pretty much ruined too.

Now it is spreading in the sea that Aokiji is the strongest general.

why?
Because only Kuzan managed to keep the force, he first froze the tsunami, and lost a few skills with the bloodthirsty great swordsman at a distance, and he didn't suffer, so...

Knowing that Sakaski would not be happy to hear that, there was one thing that the yellow monkey didn't say.

That is, there have been some gossip rumors in the sea recently, saying that Akainu is the weakest general in history.

It's too good, otherwise how could I lose so fast--people who eat melons.

The point is that these rumors are not limited to the common people, even some middle and low-level soldiers in the navy are spreading them. It seems that they are not pure gossip, but signs of someone fueling the flames...

The water here is a bit deep, and the yellow ape is aware of it, but he is not prepared to intervene in it.

Chi Quan didn't know that he had been killed by the wind review, and after understanding the basic situation, he sincerely thanked Huang Yuan and Bai Long.

Thank you for saving your life, of course.

Being ruthless when killing pirates doesn't mean it's the same in normal times.

Don't look at Sakalski who always has a straight face, as if others owed him millions, his interpersonal relationship is not bad, and he still has some good friends in the navy.

For example, Lieutenant General Jonathan, who has a good wife, has a strong relationship with Akainu.

"You're welcome, take a good rest and don't bother me."

"Have a good rest and see you later."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, I found that Akainu's spirit was not very good, Artoria and Kizaru didn't stay long, and left.

Arriving in the corridor, Huang Yuan pondered for a while, then casually said:
"Kate, have you noticed that there have been a lot of rumors that are not good for Sakalski recently?"

"... I haven't paid much attention to it. I've been busy with the aftermath recently."

Arturia frowned slightly, she was not stupid, she noticed something strange through these words.

Yellow Ape: "..."

(乛_乛) Well, it seems that she is really busy, and she didn't even pay much attention to the battle for the handsome position.

He didn't say anything more. With these words, I believe she will be alert.

In any large organization, there are three types of people: doves, hawks and centrists.

From the moment Mr. Warring States applied for his resignation, the contradictions among the various factions within the navy gradually intensified, and the undercurrents were raging, and they would continue until the commander was decided.

Don't underestimate this kind of power struggle, who will be the marshal directly determines the right to speak of that faction.

At present, in the Warring States Period, the dove faction composed of Aokiji, Garp, Crane, and Momotu has a large number of people, a powerful force, and deep-rooted forces, occupying the absolute mainstream of the navy.

Just think about how difficult it is for Akainu to rise to the top position, and you will know that they are all forced to go to the edge of the sword, forced to find support outside the navy, and after taking the position, there are still a bunch of people who are obedient and vicious...

The generals of the Hawk faction are obviously at a disadvantage in the navy. Although it is a bit strange, the White Dragon is also counted in the Hawk faction.

This has something to do with her decisive attitude when dealing with pirates, and more of it comes from the deliberate arrangement of the five old stars, they don't want her to be too popular in the navy.

"I see……"

At the entrance of the hospital, Arturia looked at the back of the yellow ape going away, her eyes flickered slightly.

As a human being, there are relatives, estrangement, and interest demands. You don't need to think about it. Mr. Zhan Guo must hope that Kuzan, who is in the same line, will take his place.

At present, it seems that it is only aimed at the red dog. When the evil wind is stronger, it may not blow to her.

Especially Qiyuan, this woman was a blessing in disguise, and recently found an opportunity to make a breakthrough, so I'm afraid she won't be reconciled to being an alternate.

But Artoria wasn't worried about anything, and murmured in a low voice:
"It seems that this time it's still going to be a life-and-death duel..."

She shook her head, walked to her office, and sent a message to her brother by the way.

Ren: [... You said that someone has recently blackmailed Mr. Sakarsky, and may even blackmail you? ]

Bailong: [Well, I think that the traditional way of campaigning within the Navy is no longer good. Akakenu and Aokiji still have to use a duel to determine the position of commander. ]
Ren: [Tsk tsk, hit my teammate hard... Punk Hazard Island expressed a little panic after hearing this. ]
White Dragon: "..."

(One`one), playing tricks again.

Ren: [Your main competitor is Taotu, right?Do you want me to find a chance to tie her up and imprison her in the basement. ]
Bailong: [→_→, no need, at worst, I will find a place to beat her up. ]
Ren: "..."

This is true, canvassing votes is not enough, the big deal is to flip the table, and learn from Mr. Sakalski.

He shook his head, it's a pity that he didn't get to play with Taotu's 1 meter super long legs...

……

Red Dog woke up.

The news quickly spread throughout Mary Joya, causing quite a stir.

Soon, a long queue formed outside the hospital. A large number of admirals, including Karp, Crane, Peach Rabbit, Tea Dolphin, Huoshaoshan, Flying Squirrel and Smoker, came to visit Mr. Sakalski with baskets of flowers and fruit. .

At first glance, Akainu appears to be very popular within the Navy.

But in fact, on the contrary, he, the ghost spider and Dauberman these hawkish generals are not very popular in the navy.

They are ruthless to the enemy, and they are also ruthless to their own people. They often sacrifice their subordinates in order to destroy the pirates. The soldiers respect them more than they love them.

When vying for the position of commander, if Akainu hadn't managed to gain the support of high-level government officials and confined the struggle within the navy as usual, then congratulations to him for being awarded the word "Participation is the most important thing".

Everyone came to visit him now, mainly because he was beaten so badly this time.

Even "Black Wrist" Zefa, when his arm was cut off, was only seriously injured, not to the point where he almost died on the spot.

In recent decades, among the big figures at the core of the navy, Akainu has been the one closest to the heroic sacrifice.

Now he has been wandering outside the gate of hell for half a month, and he finally woke up, out of emotion and reason, his colleagues also want to come to express their condolences.

So there was a scene of a long queue outside the ward.

Even Cap is here.

This time "Fire Fist" Ace's life and death has nothing to do with Mr. Sakaski. Even if Fire Fist failed to rescue him in the end, it would be CP0's fault. Of course, the old man would not have any opinion on him.

Most of the time, Ka Dapao is still very good at being a man, otherwise when facing Luffy, many admirals would not release water intentionally or unintentionally.

What shocked people was that after half a day, even the five old stars came.

Although only one of the five came, it also made Mr. Sakalski the most respectable person in Mary Gioia today.

The five old star who came was wearing a black suit, with a bald head, a birthmark on his forehead, and a two-shaped beard. He looked very much like Gorbachev.

This old man was the one who talked with Ren on the phone, so he could barely be called "grandpa".

The ostentation of the supreme power of the world government is different. Gorbachev didn't have to queue at all, and took a few CP0s to squeeze the embarrassing Lieutenant General Huo Shaoshan away and enter the ward.

Seeing Wu Laoxing coming in, Akainu was a little surprised.

It turns out that I have such a face... Ahem.

Well, there must be something important, otherwise these five uncles wouldn't take the initiative to come to see him, a combatant soldier like him.

He went to visit the sick Wulaoxing.

At this time, he has not yet become a marshal, and Mr. Sakalski did not dare to flaunt his prestige in front of his immediate superior, so he quickly got off the hospital bed, stood up, and saluted him as a soldier.

The wings are not hard yet, and he is still counting on the support of the boss, Akainu is quite humble.

"You're welcome, sit down, Sakaski, take a good rest during this time, the future of the Navy still needs you to carry it."

Wulaoxing's first sentence meant something.

Akainu already knew that Sengoku was about to resign, and his eyes flashed when he heard this, but there was no joy or anger on his face, but Ghost Spider and Dauberman on the side showed surprise expressions.

The above is to support...

"Sakaski, tell me in detail how you fought against the swordsman Ren."

After exchanging a few pleasantries and giving some hints, Gorbachev, the five old stars, got to the point.

Hearing this sentence, Akazuki looked calm, and the boss came over in person. Of course, he couldn't just come to see him who is not even an admiral of the navy. He doesn't have that much face.

"Two, please go out for a while."

Next to it, several masked CP0s unceremoniously drove away the ghost spider and Dauberman, and closed the door.

Akainu was not surprised. As soon as he woke up, a CP0 came in and told him that he could not talk about the sword hero Ren.

"After I was knocked into the small town of Marin Fanduo, he followed closely..."

Sakaski began to recall the battle process that day, his brows were tightly frowned and his face was gloomy.

It was not a pleasant thing for him to tell his experience of being defeated by a pirate.

Regarding that battle, after waking up, he recalled it in his mind countless times. He also thought about what mistakes he made during the battle, and if he learned his lesson and fought again, what would be the result.

In all fairness, that battle was a bit unfair.

Ren is well aware of Akainu's abilities and moves, and has long been prepared for and dealt with his "Dark Dog".

And Akainu didn't know some of Ren's killer tricks, because he got the information from Kizaru, and Kizuru failed to force all his moves.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle,
Therefore, Akainu suffered a bit in terms of intelligence, but Ren took off the blood armor and weakened his own defense, which was almost evened out.

After reviewing the game several times in his mind, Akainu determined that if he fought again, he would have about a [-]% chance of winning.

However, there is a premise, which is not to consider Ren in the white-haired and silver-eyed dress.

Otherwise... even if you fight ten times, it will be difficult to win a game.

"You said that in the final decisive battle, his appearance changed a little. He became white-haired and silver-eyed. He wore patterns of the sun, moon and stars, similar to the strange robes worn by wizards and priests?"

"Yes."

"Is there any other characteristic? Say even the tiniest."

The five old star Gorbachev looked very solemn, and several CP0s next to him were recording these precious information with pens.

Akaken frowned, recalled it seriously, and said, "The skin seems to have turned a little darker."

Several CP0s immediately used pens to record this information in their notebooks.

It can be seen that the world government attaches great importance to the information of the bloodthirsty great swordsman, and does not want to let it go.

The fruit awakened and changed its appearance and clothes... Wulaoxing stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and continued to ask:

"You said, in that posture, his breath doesn't look like a human being?"

"I'm not sure, at least I haven't seen such a powerful human being. Even more than 20 years ago, Roger and Whitebeard couldn't reach that height."

Five Old Stars: "..."

CP0: "..."

Roger and Whitebeard, who are obviously past their prime, are a bit scary.

"If you fight again, there is no chance of winning?"

Wu Laoxing stared at Sakaski with blazing eyes.

He is well-informed. In his opinion, the admiral Akainu is still very strong. He is considered the best among the admirals of all dynasties in the past 800 years. Even if he is not inferior to Roger and Whitebeard back then, The top combat power of the first class.

"Yes, I'm not sure."

Even though he felt a little aggrieved, Sakaski didn't slap his face swollen to pretend to be fat.

If Ren didn't have the second form of white hair and silver pupils, and learned the lesson of this failure, he would still dare to say that he could have sex with the opponent.

But when the opponent opened the second form...

MMP, that is hanging on the wall, which is against common sense and cannot be played at all.

"There is no chance of winning, is it because you can't crack the falling of ten thousand soldiers after the opponent's fruit awakening?"

"Well, it's hard for one person to break through the blockade."

Akainu recalled being surrounded by tens of thousands of special weapons, and the moment when the surrounding area fell into absolute darkness, the breath of death was so strong, just like ordinary people suddenly fell into the bottom of the sea, darkness, depression, despair, helplessness... …

It's like a suffocating nightmare from which you can never wake up.

It was too depressing and terrifying, even thinking about it now, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Of course, it's not that there is no solution if thousands of soldiers fall together, and Akainu has a way to solve it.

He added solemnly:
"If I join forces with Polusalino, and I use Meteor Volcano to block those weapons for a moment, if he breaks through with all his strength, he may still break through the blockade of thousands of soldiers.

Or, Kuzan freezes those weapons with all his strength for a moment, and I trigger the volcanic eruption to let the magma impact, and I have a chance to break through the blockade. "

"Two people are necessary?" Wu Laoxing asked with a serious expression.

"Yes, one person defends and one makes an assault. Only in this way can we have a chance of winning."

"Where are the four emperors?"

"Redhead, Big mom is unlikely, Kaido may have some hope." Akainu thought for a while and said.

Red hair is very strong, but he has a mortal body, so the possibility of breaking through the blockade of thousands of soldiers alone is very small.

As for Bigmom, it’s not that he looks down on her. Natural damage avoidance is useless, and the body of steel balloons can’t resist the special weapons released by Ren. She is a bit bulky and can only be reduced to a living target. Maybe her performance is not as good as him. .

It is also the strongest creature, with rough skin and thick flesh, strong domineering, strong vitality and defense, and can fly into the sky and escape from the ground. It is hoped that one person can break through the blockade.

As for the empress, her ability and defense specialization are almost comparable to the barrier fruit, but...

However, her overall strength will not surpass Kaido.

Anyway, in Akainu's view, if it's a one-on-one fight, only Kaido has the ability to compete with Rennes for the strongest position.

Twenty years ago, Karp could have tried it, so let's take care of himself now.

Wu Laoxing also felt that apart from "Beast" Kaido, it would be difficult for others to deal with the bloodthirsty swordsman, so he asked again:

"What are your chances of winning if you team up with Kuzan?"

"I don't know, it depends on how long the sword master Ren can maintain that form, or how many times he can release that awakening skill. If there is only one time, then the chances of winning are quite high. If it is two or three times, it is likely that both sides will lose. .

If he can use that trick more than 3 times, it's useless for the two of them to join forces... Of course, this possibility is unlikely.

Polusalino told me that after defeating me, Ren, the swordsman, was injured and his condition declined. It seems that Wan Bing blocked him 2 or 3 times, which should be his limit. "

Five Old Stars: "..."

That's also very sad, even Roger or Whitebeard couldn't play the combination of Sengoku + Zefa at the same time.

CP0: "..."

It is indeed terrible.

The combination of two generals only has a chance of winning, which seems to be a [-]-[-] split, not a sure win.

Then think of the golden lion who was beaten violently by Karp and Sengoku together, and finally had to go to Jinjin City to pick up soap, and you will know what kind of monster the Demon King is.

Wu Laoxing's heart moved, thinking of the daughter of God: "Where is Kate?"

"She unlocked the holy gun, so she can naturally break the blockade."

Akagi looked at him in surprise.

Before, he didn't think about Bailong's problem, because Kate was expelled from the world government a long time ago.

The Daughter of God is a true deity.

She is not human, so what is the point of joining forces?
It's not surprising that she defeated Kaido or the Demon King single-handedly. Do you really think it's just a joke to be comparable to ancient weapons...

Hearing that the Holy Lance could break through the blockade of thousands of soldiers, Wu Laoxing's face was not very happy.

His slightly weird attitude also moved Sakaski's heart.

Is it his delusion?

He always felt that people in the world government didn't seem to want her to be so strong.

This is a bit intriguing, the daughter of the gods should be one of the trump cards of the world government, but Wu Laoxing's trust in her...

...I don't feel like I have enough trust in him.

The water was too deep, and Mr. Sakalski immediately got rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, unwilling to participate in the vortex of that kind of power struggle.

That is much more dangerous than the competition for the handsome position.

Not only him, Kuzan obviously kept a distance from her, so Polusalino lay down early and didn't mind playing with her.

Wulaoxing stayed in the ward for about three hours, asking all the details he could ask before preparing to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Akainu couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked:
"About the ability of the swordsman Ren, the government didn't have any records in the past?"

With such a powerful ability to control thousands of soldiers and almost all natural elements, he did not believe that this would be a devil fruit that had never appeared before.

Maybe it has left a great reputation in the long history.

"No, his ability is somewhat similar to the superhuman weapon fruit, but its power and performance far exceed the boundaries of the weapon fruit. There is no record about this fruit within the government!"

Akainu: "..."

(_),real or fake?
It's not like there are any important secrets, so let's hide it from him on purpose.

"However, judging from the information you provided, this fruit reminds me of the legendary ability. Not surprisingly, it belongs to the fruit of human beings, the phantom beast species."

"Ok?"

Akainu frowned, and subconsciously retorted, "But the blockade where thousands of soldiers fall together has the typical characteristics of the awakening of superhuman fruits."

"No, no, you don't understand."

Gorbachev stroked his beard, and said with an inscrutable expression, "Some devil fruits, on the surface, appear to be superhuman, but they are actually human fruits and phantom beasts."

Akainu: ()
You seem to be kidding me.

A good superman, how can it become a zoology and phantom beast?

"However, when the swordsman Ren and I were fighting, it seemed that this is the awakening skill of the armed fruit."

Armed fruit, weapon fruit, the effect is similar, it is obviously superhuman.

Regarding Akainu's argument, the five veteran star Gorbachev laughed dumbly, secretly thinking that young people still have too little knowledge.

People in the world thought that the rubber fruit was of the superhuman type, but only a few of them old men knew that it was the animal type, phantom beast species, human fruit, and Nika (sun god) form.

He shook his head, scolded Ren for being cunning, for hiding his ability so deeply, and explained:
"Sakaski, that kid is lying to you, with white hair and silver pupils, even his appearance has changed, he must be a phantom beast."

"But……"

"No, but! The power of that fruit obviously exceeds the category of superhumans. It can only be the fruit of human beings and phantom beasts."

The implication of these words is that if it is so hanging, it must be the fruit of human beings and phantom beasts.

Akainu: "..."

(￣￣;), I always feel that this old man is a little too obsessed with the fruit of everyone · Phantom Beast, as if he was bewildered.

Next, Wu Laoxing seemed to show that he was not talking nonsense. In front of Akainu, he took a notebook in the hands of CP0 and decisively crossed out the line "Superman System·Armed Fruit".

Akainu: "..."

(_), he just looked at it and didn't speak.

"Weapons are for fighting... to control and control all kinds of weapons..."

The five old star Gorbachev muttered to himself, pondered for a moment, and wrote Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, and God of War form.

After a while, he felt that it was a bit inappropriate to directly use the name of God, and changed to the form of Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, and Warrior Lord (God of War).

Well, that's a little more subtle.

In this way, there are Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, Nika (Sun God) form, and Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, Bingzhu (God of War) form.

Both are god-level fruits, maybe the latter is stronger.

"Looking at it this way, it's much more comfortable."

Wu Laoxing exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, feeling refreshed.

Red Dog: (￣□￣;)

"Sakaski, what do you think of the name Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, Warrior Master (God of War) form?"

Akainu: "..."

good, very good.

You are the leader and you are what you say.

Even if you change the Superman type to the Human Fruit·Phantom Beast, I will recognize it, as long as the old man is happy...

In the mood of Mr. Sakaski, Wu Laoxing nodded in satisfaction, and left the ward with a team of CP0.

After the leader left, Sakaski showed a bewildered and astonished expression.

It turns out that some devil fruits are named like this, and he said that he has gained knowledge... Shit.

Just talking nonsense, bullying him for reading less, right?
After the five old stars "Gorbachev" returned to power, they communicated with "Lincoln", "Churchill", "Gandhi", and "Charles de Gaulle".

"What do you think?"

"According to the information provided by Sakaski, it is indeed a phantom beast."

"When the power is stimulated to the limit, the hair and pupil color change, and the effect of the ability is similar to the awakening of the Superman, and it is indeed similar to the form of Nika."

Several people discussed and argued for a while, and finally decided on the name Phantom Beast, Human Fruit, Warrior Lord (God of War) form for Francis D. Ryan's devil fruit ability.

It's not surprising, the Meteor Pegasus form of the Pirate Queen was also the name they finalized.

If it weren't for the obvious characteristics of her ability horse, it would also be the fruit of human beings and phantom beasts...

In short, completely unknown, difficult to classify, and very powerful ability, it is right to put it in the phantom beast species, and it can't go wrong in all likelihood.

Even if something goes wrong, can it be corrected?

What a big deal, what is the name, it is not their world government that has the final say.

.........

New World, Hongye Island.

In the center of the commercial street, in the hotel suite, Ren was sitting in the living room, holding the Zhenzhen fruit in his hand, two silver lights shot out of his eyes, scanning the orange with spiral patterns like a CT scan.

At this moment, a system notification sounded in his mind.
