Chapter 13: Aokiji Vs Kakashi, Ninjutsu And Devil Fruit Collide
A burst of flame spewed suddenly from Kakashi's mouth.
All the Marines in the square froze, watching the fire... the flames coming out of a human mouth.
At this moment, people across the entire Pirate World stared at the sudden eruption of fire on the screen. Almost everyone was stunned.
The flames howled!
A huge fireball swept across the ground, accompanied by a crackling burning sound. The floor of the square cracked instantly under the heat. As the fireball swept forward, it left a trail of scorched black marks.
Aokiji, standing directly in the path of the Great Fireball, had a look of surprise in his eyes.
Able to breathe fire? Is this the ability of that world?
Whoosh!!
Biting cold crept across Aokiji's arms.
"Pheasant Beak!"
Cold air burst from Aokiji's right arm, instantly condensing into a giant ice bird in mid-air. It crashed directly into the Great Fireball.
Two opposing forces, ice and fire, collided.
There was a violent roar. The flame burned the ice crystals, producing a massive amount of steam that spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, most of the square was covered in white mist. It was impossible to see anyone.
The Marines looked around helplessly in the steam. The visibility was reduced to about two meters; anything further was obscured.
Yuichi, watching from the roof, frowned slightly. Is that the plan?
As expected of Hatake Kakashi! He responds so fast!
After discovering that Aokiji's ability was ice, he immediately used Fire Style Ninjutsu to counterattack. This wasn't to defeat Aokiji, but to induce him to release a stronger freezing attack. The collision of ice and fire naturally produced a large amount of steam.
Kakashi's purpose was to use this steam to hide himself. Hiding his tracks again.
To think of a way to escape immediately after engaging Aokiji—as expected of Kakashi. This kind of flexible combat thinking was characteristic of ninjas from the Ninja World.
The fighting style of people in the Pirate World was different. Compared to fighting with complex tactics, they preferred to crush opponents with raw strength. Of course, this was also because the power system of Pirate World didn't support such diverse combat variables. Ninjutsu, however, had endless variations.
But...
"Kakashi, you underestimate an Admiral!"
Even though his vision was blocked, that didn't mean an Admiral couldn't locate Kakashi.
A power unique to this world: Observation Haki (Kenbunshoku Haki)!
Although Aokiji's Observation Haki wasn't his primary specialty, after locking onto Kakashi's aura, slipping away from under his nose would not be easy.
Puck...
In the thick white smoke, Aokiji's voice was heard.
Shua~ Shua!
Several icicles suddenly materialized from the smoke, galloping toward a specific direction. The sound of freezing ice crystals followed. Then, Aokiji's figure flashed, and a cold breath escaped his mouth. It instantly formed into an ice saber in his hand.
He rushed in a certain direction quickly. Immediately, the sounds of fierce fighting rang out from within the smoke.
The surrounding soldiers had no idea what was happening. The sound of combat intensified, and strong winds began to howl.
Ten seconds later, as storm after storm blew through, the smoke quickly dissipated. Visibility returned to more than ten meters.
Just at that moment.
The sound of a thousand birds chirping suddenly resounded in the square.
Crackling... zap!
Dancing lightning flashed. The moment the dazzling thunder burst out, everyone was dumbfounded. What was with this sudden thunderstorm?
"Lightning Blade (Raikiri)..."
Zizizi...
A bolt of lightning shot out from the thick smoke instantly. The speed surprised many Vice Admirals.
Arcs of electricity danced. At the same time, the image appeared on the screen. Kakashi stood among the Marines, holding lightning in one hand. The thunder and lightning danced before slowly dissipating.
But the scene of him wielding lightning made countless people drop their jaws.
"First came flames, then thunder. Are the abilities of these people from the Otherworld is so diverse?"
"At that moment just now, his speed was so fast, it was as if he had turned into lightning!"
The Lightning Blade was a Lightning Style Ninjutsu. It was not only powerful but also enhanced the user's mobility to a certain extent.
But the power Kakashi displayed was weird. Fire, thunder, high speed, and transformation.
However, this was disappointing for the likes of the Four Emperors and the Seven Warlords of the Sea (Shichibukai).
Doflamingo looked disdainful. "Is this the level of the invaders from the Otherworld?"
Looking at Kakashi, the guy had a lot of abilities and tricks, but nothing worth worrying about. The raw power was nothing special. If it was only this level, Doflamingo was confident he could easily kill him.
At that moment, the other Emperors and Warlords in the New World thought much the same. It seemed the invaders were not as troublesome as imagined.
But in the next second...
The image of the Marines was displayed on the screen. Aokiji's figure emerged from the smoke.
However, surprisingly... he was hurt!
Marine Admiral Aokiji, the Marines' highest combat power, had a striking scar on his left shoulder. Although the wound wasn't very deep or long, blood seeped out, staining his white cloak of justice red.
Doflamingo, who had been contemptuous of Kakashi a second ago, lost the smile on his face.
"How come..."
How did Aokiji get injured? He was a Logia user. It was impossible to hurt him with ordinary attacks unless Haki was used. Otherwise, one couldn't even touch the entity of a Logia user!
And this person couldn't possibly use Haki! Besides, even with Haki, not everyone could easily hurt Aokiji.
Could it be the lightning just now? Did lightning naturally counter the Ice-Ice Fruit?
