Konoha: I have a clone in One Piece.

Chapter 103 The Shocked Ocean, the Strongest Newcomer in History!

"Mr. Aokiji, you look so disheveled. Perhaps I should take a picture of you."

Suzuki smiled slightly and couldn't help but tease him.

"Cough cough..."

"Then you might as well just kill me."

Aokiji spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the ground in the pit even more crimson.

His expression returned to its initial composure, as if he felt nothing despite his severe injuries.

"Does Mr. Aokiji want to die?"

Suzuki casually asked a question, glanced at Aokiji who seemed powerless to resist, then supported himself with his hands and slowly sat down beside the pit, feeling the fact that there was no chakra left in his body, without making any movement.

"You're not going to kill me?"

"Can you still move?"

"I don't know, maybe it's possible, maybe it's not."

"You can't do sit-ups either, can you?"

"What are sit-ups?"

"It's nothing, I'm not fighting anymore."

"Cough cough... You're out of energy, aren't you?"

"It's alright, just a little bit."

"I won't die from these injuries. If you don't kill me now, I'll still capture you if we meet again at sea!"

Seeing the doubtful expression on Aokiji's face, and hearing the future admiral's provocative words, Suzuki couldn't help but smile, then said seriously:

"Mr. Aokiji, there's absolutely no need for you to say such harsh words while lying in the pit. You've already been defeated by me."

"Those I have defeated have no chance to catch up with me; they are often left behind so far that they can't even see my back anymore."

"If we meet again, Mr. Aokiji, you will only suffer an even more crushing defeat!"

"Also, I'm a person who keeps my promises."

With that, Suzuki stood up shakily, and calmly bid farewell to the Navy Admiral Candidate still lying in the crater:

"By the way, Mr. Aokiji, your Marine Headquarters probably doesn't know my name yet, right?"

"I'll remember that. My name is Suzuki."

"I look forward to meeting you again on the high seas."

After saying that, Suzuki glanced at the island, which was riddled with holes and ravaged by their battle, and then slowly and unsteadily walked towards the edge of the island.

"...."

At that moment, Aokiji, lying in the pit, heard Suzuki's departing footsteps, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

"They actually came and didn't kill me, oh my god, cough cough, I don't even know what to say."

"Should I say I'm fortunate, or should I say I'm sorry...?"

Aokiji coughed up blood again, his expression inscrutable as he sensed the cold air gathering within his body—the very air he had prepared to take Suzuki down with him.

Although he suffered severe injuries, he did not lose much of his strength, and he could still use the Ice-Ice Fruit's power.

"The traveler... Suzuki Yoru..."

Perhaps out of pity for his opponent's caution, or perhaps remembering his identity as a Marine, Aokiji used his cold air to barely freeze the bleeding wounds on his body, then shouted loudly at Suzuki, who was gradually moving away:

"Hey! Traveler!"

"I will definitely catch you!"

A faint yet resolute voice emanated from the crater, gradually resounding throughout the entire island.

Suzuki, who was struggling toward the shore, couldn't help but smile when he heard Aokiji's promise.

But he didn't turn around. He just kept walking unsteadily with his back to the crater behind him, waving his hand to indicate to the future admiral that he could do as he pleased, regardless of whether Aokiji could see him or not.

"."

"Phew~ Headquarters should have received the news by now. I'm afraid that guy will look down on me completely when I get back this time..."

Aokiji lay in the pit and silently dialed a rescue Den Den Mushi. Then, he thought of Sakazuki, who was also a rising star in the Navy, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

On the other side, at the edge of the island.

After reaching this point, Suzuki could no longer hold on and accidentally sat down on the beach.

At this moment, the once boundless blue sea in front of him had turned into an endless world of ice.

The sea area within hundreds of miles was completely frozen!

Countless surging waves came to a standstill, and beneath the transparent ice, one could see a sea king, hundreds of meters long, poised to hunt, its mouth agape, frozen in the ice.

Looking at this scene, which was even more terrifying than a natural disaster, Suzuki couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

Aokiji Kuzan, the current Navy Admiral Candidate and one of the future three Admirals!

He is indeed the most formidable opponent Suzuki has ever faced.

Aokiji's strength is at least twice that of Suzuki, and he has extremely rich combat experience. Suzuki's clone at most has the strength of a bounty of a few hundred million Berries, while Aokiji is already a candidate admiral in the Navy. With such a huge gap, it would be difficult for an ordinary person not to be instantly killed.

If it weren't for his unique abilities and his possession of almost all the information about Aokiji, while this future Marine Admiral only knew the information about Suzuki written on the bounty poster.

I'm afraid this battle would have had a different outcome.

After all, the information asymmetry between the two sides is itself an advantage.

Suzuki had already maximized this advantage in this battle.

Aokiji didn't know anything about chakra, ninjutsu, or shadow clones.

Suzuki truly understood all the abilities of the Ice-Ice Fruit, and even the personality traits of this future admiral.

Even so, he only managed to win by a narrow margin, and if he hadn't been cautious enough at the end, the two might have ended up dying together.

Aokiji is currently on the verge of death and may be waiting for the nearby navy to come and take him back.

Suzuki's body was covered in frostbite, his chakra was completely depleted, and even his hands were frozen blue-purple. This was the first time he had suffered such severe injuries.

"As expected of a future admiral, he's completely different from the small fry I've encountered before."

"Even with such severe injuries, they still had the belief to fight to the last moment. Their vitality is terrifyingly tenacious."

"We need to leave as soon as possible. The Navy is full of gangs of guys. If we stay on this island any longer, we might really end up in Impel Down."

Suzuki completely ignored the pain that kept coming from his body and stood up again.

Then, he calmly straightened his black trench coat, which had been wrinkled from the battle, and walked step by step along the frozen sea towards the next island.

A few days later, a new bounty was issued from Naval Headquarters.

"Traveler - Suzuki, bounty 580 million Berries!"

With the news of the defeat of Aokiji Kuzan, one of the Navy's three rising stars, the bounty poster spread throughout the entire sea in a very short time, shocking countless people on the sea.

The New World, the Whitebeard Pirates' ship - the Moby Dick.

"580 million Berries! Dad, a remarkable newcomer has emerged in Paradise!"

Young Marco looked at Suzuki's bounty poster in his hand, then handed it to Whitebeard with a shocked expression.

"Is this the new era wave Roger was talking about? That's really something!"

"Gurala la la..."

After Whitebeard took the bounty poster and saw Suzuki's photo, he recalled the scene of Roger coming to find him before his death, and also remembered Crocodile who had come to challenge him before. He immediately burst into hearty laughter.

Its massive form sat at the bow of the ship, radiating an confidence that allowed it to easily handle any wave, as if it could shake the world.

The New World, Wano Country, Onigashima.

"Waaaaah."

"That's wonderful, Jhin!"

"A rookie who looks like a Mythical Zoan! The Beasts Pirates have some new blood to absorb!"

Kaido drank his wine and opened his large, round eyes that always exuded a wild and fierce aura. Despite his appearance as a strong and tough man, he inexplicably started crying as he looked at Suzuki's wanted poster.

"."

"Mr. Kaido, this traveler is quite strong."

Even if he comes to the new world, he might not join us.

King, the leader of the Three Disasters of the Beasts Pirates, spoke up to remind them.

He had grown accustomed to his eldest son's occasional erratic outbursts, but he paid more attention to Suzuki's messages.

"Roar, roar, roar."

"Don't worry, Jin, I'll go invite him myself!"

As he spoke, Kaido suddenly laughed again.

He then downed the wine in the red gourd in one gulp, his body suddenly transforming into the shape of a blue dragon, and flew rapidly towards the first half of the Grand Line.

"Hey Mr. Kaido"

"You still don't know where the traveler is."

"."

King watched Kaido's departing figure with a helpless expression, knowing that he was actually unable to restrain himself and was preparing to cause trouble at the Marine Headquarters.

However, Jin didn't seem too worried.

After all, their captain had been captured by the navy many times, but he always returned unharmed, and this time would probably be no exception.

The New World, the Totto Land International Sea.

"Mom, we need to take this traveler seriously!"

"580 million Berries, and that's before they even came to the New World in the first half. If they do come to the New World, it might have some impact on us."

Katakuri, one of the Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates, looked at Suzuki's bounty poster and gave him a serious reminder.

"Mommy, Mommy."

"Then let's send him an invitation to the next banquet."

"Never mind such trivial matters, Katakuri, hurry up and bring over the new cake!"

Charlotte Linlin, the captain of the Big Mom Pirates who was like a little giant, didn't take Suzuki's information to heart at all.

While urging Katakuri to get the cake, she kept stuffing food into her gaping maw.

"."

"yes!"

Katakuri sighed inwardly and then left.

The first half of the Grand Line, the Sabaody Archipelago.

"Hahaha, has Suzuki grown up to this extent?"

"It's only been less than two years, right? The boy who didn't even know Haki back then can now defeat that Marine brat who likes to follow Garp around and has the Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit."

Rayleigh, the former vice-captain of the Roger Pirates, was sitting in a room with a sign that read "Knock on Bamboo Bar" when he looked at the latest bounty on Suzuki in his hand and couldn't help but marvel.

"Is this the boy you mentioned meeting on the Sky Island?"

Nearby, the bar owner, Xia Qi, couldn't help but become curious after seeing Rayleigh's surprised expression.

"Ah, yeah, hahahaha"

"Young people these days are really getting more and more impressive."

Rayleigh laughed, thinking of the many formidable newcomers who had emerged on the high seas in the past year.

"Alright, alright, let's get to the coating process and make some money!"

"Let me tell you, the money we hand over each month isn't enough. Forget about alcohol, you won't even be allowed to stay in a hotel!"

Shakky didn't react much to Rayleigh's exclamation, but instead bluntly reminded the Hades to hurry up and get to work and make money.

"."

Rayleigh's thoughts immediately stopped, and he quickly and obediently went to the port to begin the coating work.

A new world, an unnamed sea.

"580 million Berries, as expected of you, Suzuki!"

"He suddenly surpassed me by a hundred million."

After handing Bailey to Newsbird, Hawkeye Mihawk looked at the latest newspaper in his hand and couldn't help but marvel at his friend's strength and the speed of his progress.

"Are they looking for Devil Fruit users everywhere because they need them?"

"In that case, should I bring a few ability users as gifts next time I go?"

Upon seeing the newspaper report about Suzuki hunting down ability users everywhere, Hawkeye Mihawk pondered with some confusion on his face.

"I should bring a few with me, after all, Suzuki gave me such a useful boat."

"I haven't given him anything yet. Anyway, he's just a few ability users. I can pick a few good ones to take with me."

Soon, he stopped worrying about it.

This powerful swordsman, who hadn't used his black sword, Night Boat, for a long time, looked down at the black metal ship beneath him, his face showing extreme satisfaction and gratitude.

The ship was immediately started, the Wind-Blowing Shell suddenly activated, and the small black boat sped off like an arrow towards the next swordsman.

The New World, Dressrosa.

"Fufufufufufufu..."

"The traveler... so his name is Suzuki Yoru. Is he finally going to show his fangs?"

"Let's make this world even more chaotic!"

"Fufufufufufufu..."

Looking at the bounty poster, Doflamingo recalled the mysterious man he had met in Loguetown. He was very wary of Suzuki's strength and had been keeping an eye on Suzuki's information ever since.

The Grand Line, first half, in an unnamed sea area.

"The wind is starting to blow over that boy too..."

Monkey D. Dragon looked at the newspaper in his hand with a deep expression, and then quickly headed to the next kingdom to conduct an on-site investigation of the lives of ordinary people.

West Sea, Ohara.

"Robin Robin"

"Come quick, the newspaper has updated its news about Suzuki!"

Hearing Professor Clover's call, Robin ran over with a joyful expression.

After eagerly taking the newspaper from Professor Clover, Robin was stunned when she saw the latest bounty amount:

"580 million Berry!"

"Doctor, this...this is so much money!"

"Suzuki-nii is already so amazing!"

Dr. Clover smiled, then said with some surprise:

"The bounty is nothing compared to the fact that he defeated that Navy Admiral candidate—that's truly astonishing!"

"what?"

Little Robin looked at Professor Clover with a blank expression. Having not yet experienced the events of Ohara, she had no concept of the Admirals.
