The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 338 Ashes

"Aokiji!!"

Kaido's furious roar cracked the frozen sky.

Before the roar had even faded, he brandished his enormous and heavy spiked club and charged towards Kuzan like a raging beast.

The spiked club created whistling sounds as it was swung, tearing the surrounding air apart.

Seeing this, Aokiji remained calm and composed, raising his hand without haste.

Five thick ice pillars instantly shot out from his palm. The ice pillars shot towards Kaido like sharp arrows, moving at great speed and reaching Kaido in the blink of an eye.

The ice pillars precisely wrapped around Kaido's body, then quickly spread out, freezing Kaido inside a giant ice ball in the blink of an eye. From a distance, the ice ball looked like a dazzling crystal, firmly trapping Kaido inside.

Kaido was incredibly powerful, and in the next instant, there was a "crack" sound.

He actually managed to break through the seal from the inside of the ice hockey puck.

Kaido's eyes burned with fury as he raised his spiked club high once more: "Thunder Bagua!"

Purple lightning crackled and flickered across the spiked club, releasing a terrifyingly powerful energy.

Then, he swung his spiked club, imbued with the power of lightning, and smashed it down on Kuzan.

Kuzan reacted quickly and without hesitation threw a punch to meet the attack.

Despite being known for his powerful Ice-Ice Fruit abilities, many people tend to overlook the fact that Kuzan is also a master of physical combat and Haki.

In his youth, he trained under Garp and received Garp's true teachings, developing superb physical skills.

"boom!!!"

The two attacks collided, and the powerful impact caused the surrounding air to explode, forming visible shockwaves that surged and spread outwards.

Under the immense force of the impact, Kuzan was ultimately outmatched, and was forced to take two steps back involuntarily, his feet leaving two long tracks on the ice.

Fortunately, he managed to stop Kaido's fierce attack, preventing the opponent from advancing any further for the time being.

Meanwhile, Wes stood aside, calmly surveying the surrounding situation.

Due to the power of Kuzan's previous "Ice Age" attack, most of the pirates were frozen in place and lost their ability to move. However, the powerful officers broke free from the ice and rushed over to support Kaido.

The three calamities and the remaining five Flying Six were gathering in this direction with great momentum.

Especially Jin, who instantly transformed into a Pteranodon, his massive wingspan sweeping through the air, creating a gust of wind as he flew at high speed toward them, his eyes revealing determination and ruthlessness.

Just as Jhin was rapidly approaching Wes, he felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on him. The immense pressure instantly reduced his flight speed, and his body began to fall uncontrollably downwards.

Not only him, but the other seven people were also immobilized by this inexplicable pressure as soon as they approached this place. They could only struggle in place with a look of shock and pain on their faces.

"roar!"

"roar!"

"roar!"

After several deafening roars, eight strangely shaped ancient creatures suddenly appeared before Wess.

"It's like a zoo."

Looking at the various ancient creatures before him, Wes smirked and made a sarcastic remark.

"Guardian Fire Dragon Emperor!"

Jin gave it his all.

A massive fire behemoth lunged at Wes.

Meanwhile, the other officers unleashed their unique skills, launching a frenzied attack on Wes.

"Lie down."

Wes uttered two words expressionlessly.

The gravity in the surrounding area instantly doubled again, and the Beast Pirates' officers suddenly felt their bodies become heavier. Many of their attacks lost their accuracy, and some were even pressed to the ground by the sudden gravity.

In order to minimize the area affected by the force, the three calamities and the six flying creatures transformed back into human form, each with a pained expression on their face.

"hateful!!"

Jin's eyes were bloodshot, and veins bulged on his forehead. He used all his strength to try to stand up from the endless pressure, but the heavy pressure was like thousands of mountains pressing down on him, making every muscle tremble and making it impossible for him to move an inch.

"clatter."

"clatter."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Just as Ember was struggling under the pressure of gravity, a shoe slowly appeared in his line of sight.

With difficulty, Jhin raised his head and looked up from the shoe, where he saw Wes's face.

Wes removed his hood, and with the hood that had been covering his face gone, Jhin's handsome face was completely revealed.

At this moment, however, the composure and calmness that Jhin usually displayed were completely gone from his face. Instead, his face was filled with resentment. His once deep and bright eyes were now burning with raging anger, which made his features appear slightly distorted due to this extreme emotion.

The Seraphim created by Vegapunk were made using his genes as a template.

Jin was a descendant of the Lunaria race. During his youth, the World Government used him as a test subject, subjecting him to various experiments that caused him unimaginable pain and torment.

That dark experience, like a nightmare, was deeply imprinted on his heart, and it also made him hate the World Government.

It was precisely because of this intense hatred in his heart that he chose to follow Kaido.

In his view, Kaido possesses unparalleled strength, a power that is enough to rival the World Government.

He firmly believed that as long as he followed Kaido, he would have the opportunity to overthrow the World Government, make those arrogant and reckless people pay the price they deserved, and also seek justice for himself and his suffering people.

Wes wouldn't consider the complex feelings in Jhin's heart at this moment, nor would he feel any sympathy for Jhin because of his pitiful background.

Since you've chosen to become a pirate, you must be prepared to be killed; this is the unchanging law of survival on this sea.

The law of the jungle prevails, and only the fittest survive. No one will show you mercy because of your past tragic experiences.

His gaze slowly swept over the eight Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit users around him who were being suppressed by gravity, and he thought to himself, these are all excellent materials.

His lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile that made him appear exceptionally cold.

Open a spatial passage.

Black Dwarf emerged with his people.

"Lock all the pirates on the island in the dungeon."

"Yes."

Black Dwarf accepted the order in a muffled voice.
