One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

Akainu's body crashed heavily into the ruins behind him like a meteorite.

boom--!!!

The dark red lava was smashed and splashed more than ten meters high, like a blooming flower of flame.

The building ruins that had been frozen by the blue pheasant melted instantly under the impact of the lava, turning back into a churning pool of lava.

Akainu lay in the center of the lava pool, his waist and below completely submerged in the lava he had created.

His shirt had already been shredded to dust by Roy's knife, leaving his exposed upper body a gruesome sight.

The wound across his abdomen ran from his left waist down to below his right ribs.

His skin was torn open by the overwhelming color, revealing the bluish-purple muscles and stark white bone fragments underneath.

It's broken. At least three ribs are broken.

Even more serious are the internal organs.

The Conqueror's Haki-infused power pierced through his magma armor, Armament Haki hardening, skin, and muscles the moment it struck him, exploding directly inside his body.

It felt like someone had detonated a bomb inside his stomach—

The liver was ruptured, the spleen was torn open, the stomach was spasmed, and even the heart stopped beating for a full beat due to the aftershocks of the force.

Akainu opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood mixed with dark red fragments of internal organs gushed out from his throat, splashing onto the lava with a sizzling sound.

pain.

It hurts so much.

Since he ate the Magma-Magma Fruit and became a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, how many years has it been since he suffered such a serious injury?

Before absolute power, an elemental body is invincible.

Bullets, swords, fists, and feet all melted by the high temperature of the magma.

But Roy is different.

The man's sword was wreathed in Conqueror's Haki, a power capable of capturing Logia-type entities.

Even more terrifying is that his Armament Haki has been honed to the point where it can penetrate magma armor and directly attack his body.

"Cough...cough cough..."

Akainu struggled to get up from the lava pool, supporting himself with one hand on the ground.

With every movement, fresh blood gushed from the wound on my lower back.

Blood dripped into the magma and was instantly evaporated by the high temperature, turning into wisps of dark red mist.

"Roy..."

Akainu's voice was squeezed out from between his teeth, low, hoarse, and filled with an almost obsessive killing intent.

The magma surged wildly around him, and the dark red light grew brighter and hotter.

The blood gushing from his wounds was swallowed by the lava before it could drip, becoming part of the lava covering his body.

His legs began to transform into elements, and his lower body completely turned into surging lava, merging with the lava pool beneath his feet.

His arms were also becoming elementalized, turning from his fingers to his shoulders into blazing white lava, the high temperature distorting the surrounding air into a layer of transparent heat waves.

But this time, the elementalization process was noticeably slower than before.

The wounds inflicted by Roy's Conqueror's Haki remained even after he became an elemental.

Flesh and blood can turn into magma, but the destructive power left by Conqueror's Haki within the body...

However, like a malignant tumor clinging to the bone, it lingered deep within the wound, constantly eroding his physical strength and domineering aura.

"Admiral Akainu, are you coming again?"

Roy hovered in mid-air, with Shusui held horizontally in front of him, the blade still bearing traces of Akainu's blood.

Roy watched as Akainu struggled to his feet, and as the lava once again enveloped his mangled body.

Looking into those gloomy eyes, one could see that the killing intent still burned fiercely, as if it were a fight to the death.

This guy... he really is a madman.

Roy didn't hold back with that last strike.

With the combination of Armament Haki and the Entanglement skill, the power of the slash is enough to split a small mountain in two.

Akainu took the blow head-on, his internal organs were ruptured, yet he was still able to stand up, transform into an elemental form, and stare at himself with eyes that seemed to want to devour him alive.

This willpower truly befits the title of Admiral.

Unfortunately, he's not very bright.

"You think you can fight me with your current broken body?"

Roy's voice wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.

Akainu did not answer.

He answered with his actions—

The magma in the right arm compressed wildly, its density increased dramatically, and its color changed from dark red to incandescent white, and then from incandescent white to an eerie black.

That's the color that magma only shows when it's completely covered in Armament Haki.

"Haunted Dog!!!"

Akainu roared and transformed into a torrent of magma, charging head-on towards Roy!

The speed was faster, the strength was greater, and the killing intent was stronger.

But Roy could see clearly that the moment Akainu charged out, a large amount of blood gushed from the wound on his waist.

This guy is fighting with his life on the line.

A red light flashed in Roy's eyes, and his Observation Haki, which foresaw the future, was already spreading out.

Akainu's punch, though seemingly fierce, was actually all bark and no bite.

The wound on his left rib slowed his exertion, and the internal organ tremors made him a full beat slower.

His anger clouded his judgment, making his attacks even more direct and straightforward.

It's no wonder they couldn't hit it.

Roy dodged to the side, and the hound grazed past his chest; the scorching lava was less than a hand's width away from his psychic armor.

The high temperature seeped in through the gaps in his armor, making the skin on his chest feel slightly hot.

Before Akainu could retract his right arm, Roy swung his sword again.

Autumn Water drew a dark arc in the air, and the blade slammed heavily into Akainu's back.

Bang--!!

Akainu's body crashed into the lava pool below like a kite with a broken string.

This time, it took him even longer to get up.

The wound on my waist had been completely torn open, and blood was gushing out like it was free.

His breathing was heavy, like that of an old blower; with each breath, a gurgling sound came from his chest.

But he still stood up.

"Roy...that damned pirate..."

"It's not over yet..."

"not yet……"

He took a step, his knees buckled, and he almost collapsed into the lava pool.

Meanwhile, on another battlefield.

Zephyr was forced into a series of defeats by Tesoro's restraints and Yamato's siege.

It wasn't that he couldn't beat these kids—in a head-on confrontation, Zefa feared no one.

But these kids' fighting style is just too cheating.

Tesoro's Rumble-Rumble Fruit speed was too fast. Every time Zephyr was about to charge up and unleash a fatal blow, this guy would transform into a bolt of lightning and appear in front of him, his palm wrapped in lightning as he struck down, interrupting his rhythm of power.

Yamato's spiked club grew heavier and heavier; the little girl's demon bloodline granted her near-limitless stamina.

Despite hitting for so long, her breathing remained steady, her arm remained stable, and each swing of the bat carried a monstrous force capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.

Savi's giant ape form was tough and fleshy. When his black wrist slammed into Savi, it could only make Savi stagger back a few steps, but it could not cause fatal damage.

While Burgess's Power-Power Fruit attacks were crude, each punch was incredibly powerful.

Combined with Pea's ubiquitous vines and Kaze's unpredictable, swift swords, Zephyr was forced to distract himself.

What troubled him most was the sword wound on his shoulder.

Kazami's sword thrust was exceptionally cunning, the tip piercing the gap in his shoulder blade and injuring his tendon.

Although it didn't affect his ability to throw a punch, every time he raised his right arm, a tearing pain would come from his shoulder.

These kids are working together more and more seamlessly.
