One Piece: The Max-Level Blacksmith of Marineford

Borsalino and Sakazuki were both originally swordsmen, although they both neglected their swordsmanship due to their Devil Fruit abilities. However, Monkey King still couldn't quite accept that big axe. Hmm, swords are much more attractive.

"Storing light...that's definitely a bit tricky...wait, that doesn't seem right..."

"Let's go for a stroll, maybe we'll get some inspiration. Don't forget, this is Punk Hazard."

Iron Hammer's mind conjured up images of various weapons, and he quickly identified a particular one, though he wasn't sure if it was feasible.

After all, it's quite difficult to achieve the desired effect with that thing.

That's too unconventional.

Under Vegapunk's leadership, Punk Hazard operated at high speed, and Hammer didn't bother him.

Instead, they began searching everywhere for suitable weapons and materials.

Led by Monkey King, the group first arrived at the armory, where Iron Hammer acted as if he were one of the guests.

Everything he saw seemed good, and he wanted it immediately, making even the Monkey King's eyes light up.

"Hey, Monkey King, can't you handle this? Didn't you just say you could take any weapon you wanted?"

As the light grew brighter, Iron Hammer panicked.

My God, this is a laser, a high-temperature penetrating laser. Tie knew he was just a mortal and dared not accept this thing.

"Hehehe, Iron Hammer, I told you to take a little bit, not all of it. Look how much you've already taken!"

Iron Hammer scoffed, "Did I take that much?"

"Aren't they just some guns and cannons?"

"Not many, I suppose."

The Sneaky Fruit user, Flash Man, has completely unleashed his power.

"Some guns? 1000? And they're newly developed super-fast-firing submachine guns! There are only 1500 of these in total production! You're taking two-thirds of them?"

"Some cannons? You want them, caliber and all. Tell me, can your warship even fit fixed gun emplacements? Huh? How big is your Warhammer?"

Iron Hammer felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this. Fixed turret, hmm... there does seem to be such a thing.

It looks incredibly powerful; it's definitely a deadly weapon.

He was so focused on getting something for nothing that he forgot this thing couldn't be installed on the ship.

"Oh dear, Monkey King, why are you being so stingy?"

"Where did that Monkey King from back in training camp, the one who'd share a cake with me, go? Sigh... the world is going to the dogs..."

Upon hearing this, Monkey King's entire face began to glow, and his index fingers started to emit golden light.

"Hey! Don't shoot me!"

"I dodge! I jump! I roll!"

The golden light transformed into a laser beam and flew straight towards the iron hammer. The iron hammer instantly transformed into a graceful ballerina, unleashing its full Observation Haki to dodge repeatedly.

"I'll trade you something!"

"Change it! Is that not enough?!"

Upon hearing that he would exchange something for it, Monkey King instantly withdrew his golden light, and his signature lewd smile reappeared on his face.

"What is it? I'm really curious."

Iron Hammer quickly took out a large piece of something and placed it in front of Monkey King.

“Look, the ice from the Jade Iceberg. This stuff is incredibly hard; even old man Garp couldn’t break it with a single punch.”

"I specially brought this back from the West Sea. It's absolutely top-notch. Just imagine, Monkey King, if you process this into a recliner, wow, you won't be afraid of the hottest summer anymore. Let me tell you, this thing can't be melted by ordinary fire."

Looking at Iron Hammer, who was showing off his treasures, and even taking out the precious Jade Iceberg that gave him so much trouble, Lance instantly thought that Iron Hammer was a really bad person.

"Hmm...it is indeed quite firm, and the temperature is nice, suitable for reclining."

"But, Iron Hammer... with such a good thing, why don't you forge it yourself?"

If you were to ask who the most clever person in the navy is, it wouldn't be Sengoku, nor would it be the old man Kong, but definitely the monkey right in front of us.

Despite his sleazy appearance, he's as shrewd as a hawk.

"Hehehe... Nothing can be hidden from Brother Monkey. I did try to forge this thing, but its material simply cannot be fused with other metals."

“I have no way to deal with him, so I decided to come to Punk Hazard to try my luck and see if Dr. Vegapunk has any good ideas on how to deal with this thing.”

"But to be honest, this big block was specially reserved for you. I know Brother Monkey likes a comfortable environment, so this ice is perfect for you!"

Seeing the ambiguous smile on Borsalino's face, Hammer quickly offered an explanation.

Is that so???

"Absolutely! We're brothers who've fought side by side, would I lie to you!"

Hmm... fooling someone doesn't count as cheating, right? Hmm, it shouldn't!

"The Jade Iceberg is known as the 'Ice That Never Melts.' I never expected you could get your hands on something like this."

Suddenly a male voice rang out from behind the two. They saw Shakyamuni, dressed in black, slowly walking over, his eyes fixed on the precious jade iceberg that Iron Hammer had taken out.

"It won't melt?"

Iron Hammer was a little curious when he first heard this title.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Ice that does not melt for thousands of years is also known as permafrost, and such things are rare in the world."

"Its molecular structure remains very stable and is difficult to be changed by external forces."

"I think Lieutenant General Iron Hammer has already tried it."

Iron Hammer nodded blankly, thinking to himself: As expected of the owner of the Brain-Brain Fruit, his knowledge is indeed abundant.

"But ice that doesn't melt is indeed a rare treasure, and it would be a novel idea to use it for scientific research."

"As for changing its structure, I do have a way."

Shakyamuni's words delighted Tiechui, who had gone to sea to clear his mind and find a way to deal with the precious jade iceberg.

"Since it's ice, let's fight fire with fire. We'll use the same low temperature of ice to affect its structure and make it assimilate with other ice."

"It can both ensure the hardness and structure of the ice without melting and free it from its solid form. Of course, this is just an illusion. It is hard to say whether there is ice that can assimilate it."

Assimilation... solid... liquid...

Both the monkey and the hammer frowned.

The two men suddenly looked at each other and said a name in unison:

"Kuzan!"

Immediately afterwards, Iron Hammer began to laugh wildly.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Why Kuzan instead of the Ice Sword? Because although the Ice Sword can create freezing air, its release is limited.

Compared to Kuzan, which is a natural-type ice element, Kuzan is definitely more useful.

I'm begging you all to give this a like, write a short review, and if possible, give it a five-star rating.

Chapter 143 Dog Brother vs. Whitebeard

"A Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit user? That's certainly a good choice."

Shakyamuni analyzed the idea and found that the hammer was entirely feasible.

"I reckon no one but Dr. Vegapunk would have thought of such a method: ice against ice."

"No wonder he's known as the man with the world's greatest brain."

These words were a heartfelt expression of admiration from Iron Hammer.

"Do you have any methods to achieve energy stability and energy plasticity?"

At this moment, Hammer asked another question, and it was an extremely tricky one.

This surprised the monkey standing to the side.

Energy stability, as the name suggests, means the stable output of propagated energy.

Energy plasticity, on the other hand, is the process of converting energy into a fixed form for output.

The two can be said to be highly related.

A glint of light appeared in Shakyamuni's eyes, which were hidden by the mask, and he became even more curious about the hammer.

How could a blacksmith possibly delve into the realm of energy?

"Crystals can stabilize energy, but it all depends on the magnitude of the energy and the quality of the crystal."
