Chapter 411 Aokiji's Scheme

As Admiral Kuzan finished speaking, the frozen arm in his hand instantly sprouted numerous icy spikes, which sprang forth like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. In the blink of an eye, they transformed into spikes several meters long, piercing Charlotte Katakuri's body with deadly force. What Charlotte Katakuri considered a minor injury was, in Admiral Kuzan's eyes, the key to victory.

Within three seconds of Charlotte Katakuri's foresight, he would indeed suffer such trauma. For Charlotte Katakuri, exchanging a minor injury for avoiding being frozen by sub-zero temperatures was a very worthwhile deal.

But what is the reality?

From a medical perspective, sub-zero temperatures can stimulate the human body, easily causing vasoconstriction, increased blood pressure, and accelerated heart rate. In severe cases, it can even lead to myocardial ischemia, increased blood viscosity, thrombosis, and aggravation of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It can also result in serious consequences such as stroke and myocardial infarction.

At sub-zero temperatures, the impact on glutinous rice is even greater. The original advantages of glutinous rice will disappear instantly, and it will also cause the whole body to harden and become brittle.

These effects have not yet been fully revealed, but the cold air emanating from the icy spikes piercing Charlotte Katakuri's body has already begun to subtly affect his bodily functions.

Charlotte Katakuri raised his hand and snapped the icy spike from his chest, exhaling a wisp of cold breath. The young Charlotte Katakuri, unaware of the gravity of the situation, sneered:

"A Marine Headquarters Admiral? That's all there is to him!"

Having seen through Admiral Kuzan's tricks, Charlotte Katakuri brandished her trident and began close combat with him.

Admiral Kuzan silently counted the seconds in his mind, measuring how many seconds it would take for the sub-zero temperatures to begin affecting Charlotte Katakuri, while simultaneously and without hesitation, he engaged the enemy in fierce combat, causing the enemy to experience the effects of the sub-zero temperatures on his body.

The two figures moved at incredible speed, leaving only a series of blurry afterimages, occasionally rippled with jellyfish-like waves of air.

Strictly speaking, Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji was not a master of hand-to-hand combat; his skill in this area was average. In close combat with Charlotte Katakuri, he did not have much of an advantage or the upper hand. Instead, the two fought back and forth.

Waves of glutinous rice surged on the ground, intertwining with the frozen ice on the other side, each vying for the other's territory, neither willing to yield.

Charlotte Katakuri's every strike was powerful and heavy, further amplified by the interplay of Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki. With a single, devastating blow, his trident, crackled with terrifying red and black lightning, cleaved the entire street in two the instant it struck the ground, leaving a long, winding fissure that sent chills down one's spine.

"Clap your hands and enjoy the rice cake!"

Suddenly finding a perfect opportunity, Charlotte Katakuri's eyes flashed with killing intent the instant she flung Admiral Kuzan into the air with a single blow. The mochi fist that emerged from the donut opened its five fingers into a palm, and the two huge palms closed as if swatting a fly, intending to crush the enemy within.

But at this very moment, the deadly move that General Kuzan of Aokiji had been meticulously preparing was also ready.

Charlotte Katakuri suddenly felt a violent throbbing in her heart. She didn't even have time to control her mochi hand. With one hand covering her chest and the other supporting her trident, she knelt on the icy ground. Her face turned deathly pale in an instant. With a "whoosh," she spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, which was actually mixed with fragments of internal organs.

"When was this injury..."

Charlotte Katakuri's pupils suddenly contracted, shrinking to the size of needles.

Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, a seemingly unbelievable occurrence on Spring Island in the warmth of spring. However, for the top-tier Logia-type Devil Fruit, the Ice-Ice Fruit, it was perfectly natural.

Transform the environment!

This is one of the abilities of the Ice-Ice Fruit.

The temperature in the air dropped sharply, triggering Charlotte Katakuri's frozen injuries, causing him to cough several more times.

Having lost Charlotte Katakuri's control, Admiral Kuzan was merely slapped away by the immense force of the mochi hand, landing on the ground with a bang. He appeared to be seriously injured, but in reality, he was unharmed. He turned into shattered ice and reformed his body, quickly becoming completely intact again.

"call!"

The deadly move, which took more than an hour to prepare, finally had an effect. Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji exhaled a breath of cold air and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

If you were to look down from above at this moment, you would find that the entire Wheat Island has long since been transformed into a snowy and icy environment. Even the glutinous rice area that was originally assimilated by the awakening of the glutinous rice fruit has been turned into a vast white snowfield by the erosion of the ice.

As the ambient temperature continues to drop, the sticky fruit loses its most important stickiness, just like a tiger losing its fangs. There is nothing left to worry about, so it is not surprising that it is eroded by the ice.

At this moment, at this moment.

Charlotte Katakuri was like a ferocious tiger, falling step by step into the schemes of a shrewd hunter, becoming a trapped beast fighting desperately.

In fact, from the moment the two sides met, Admiral Kuzan's series of conversations were all designed to buy time so that the influence of the Ice-Ice Fruit could spread throughout the entire Wheat Island, thus securing victory.

Poor Charlotte Katakuri, although he has the terrifying ability to foresee the next three seconds, how could he possibly foresee the future more than an hour from now?

In this way, Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji took advantage of the enemy's precognitive abilities to set up his killing moves step by step, which led to the formation of the main battlefield.

The heavy, spiked leather boots slammed into the ground. Charlotte Katakuri's face darkened as he watched the ice crack beneath his feet, assimilated by the glutinous rice. The connection between him and the rice beneath his feet was weak and indistinct, separated by the ice. This meant that his awakened ability had been destroyed!

At the same time, he felt discomfort in his body, and his ability to use the Mochi Mochi Fruit was greatly slowed down. The Mochi Mochi Fruit was like a black bear hibernating in winter, and the effects of all its abilities were greatly reduced. Charlotte Katakuri understood that this seemingly carefree young man in front of him had been playing tricks on him from beginning to end.

Chapter 412 Katakuri's Defeat

At the same time, he felt discomfort in his body, and his ability to use the Mochi Mochi Fruit was greatly slowed down. The Mochi Mochi Fruit was like a black bear hibernating in winter, and the effects of all its abilities were greatly reduced. Charlotte Katakuri understood that this seemingly carefree young man in front of him had been playing tricks on him from beginning to end.

Recalling the initial meeting when Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji seemed to be slacking off at work, and then looking at the deadly trap he had just set up, Charlotte Katakuri realized that it was all a trap deliberately set by his opponent to guide him step by step, making him focus all his attention on Admiral Kuzan himself and ignore the changes in the surrounding environment.

"What a good plan!"

Charlotte Katakuri stood up, propped up by her trident, and tore off the white scarf that covered half of her face, revealing a hideous and terrifying face. However, instead of showing the slightest fear on that face that was supposed to inspire terror, it gave people the feeling that it was exactly what she wanted.

"If you think that sealing away my Mochi Mochi Fruit power will do you any good, you're sorely mistaken!"

Charlotte Katakuri gripped his trident tightly with both hands, and with a sudden burst of power, he charged forward like a tiger unleashed from its cage, his momentum soaring as he skimmed across the ice. The powerful trident, carrying the force of a raging torrent, aimed to annihilate any enemy that stood in his way.

General Kuzan of Aokiji remained calm and composed, not rashly changing his fighting style and strategy despite his opponent's anger. With his palm facing down, ice pillars flowed from his palm and landed on the ground.

"Freeze moment!"

The entire Wheat Island suddenly trembled violently, and icicles as thick as five people could hug rose from the ground, spreading aimlessly across the entire island in an erratic manner.

"Put-put-put! Put-put-put! Put-put-put..."

The moment Charlotte Katakuri felt the ground tremble, she frowned slightly, twisted her waist and turned in mid-air to avoid the icicles that rose from the ground, while simultaneously wielding her trident to cut the icicles in half from several other directions.

These icicles are not fixed in shape; some are prismatic, some are triangular pyramidal, and some are even irregular in shape, like a mental patient scribbling on a wall with paint, making them look very messy.

If viewed from above, one would be surprised to find that the entire Wheat Island is covered with strange icicles, crisscrossing to form a complex maze.

If Kuzan wanted to precisely control the ice spikes, it would consume a lot of his energy, and he also couldn't accurately control such a wide-range killing move. So he simply let the Ice-Ice Fruit run wild in the snowy landscape, allowing the ice spikes to grow unchecked. Due to the lack of human intervention, the ice spikes were orderly in their chaos, creating a unique charm.

This, however, caused Charlotte Katakuri considerable trouble.

His path forward was blocked by these chaotic icicles.

Each time he cut through an icicle, the coldness intensified in his body, causing him to sink deeper and deeper into the mud.

"Katakuri, have you ever heard the fable about the North Wind and the Sun?"

Kuzan, the Admiral of Aokiji, wouldn't stand still and wait for the enemy to come to him. He had already silently swapped places with an ice shard. For a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, this was an extremely easy and commonplace thing. He spoke as if to himself, or perhaps to his enemy, recounting his story in a leisurely manner:

"The North Wind and the Sun are arguing endlessly about which has more energy."

"They decided that whoever could get the pedestrians to take off their clothes would win."

"The north wind started blowing fiercely, and pedestrians on the road wrapped themselves tightly in their clothes. Seeing this, the wind blew even more fiercely. The pedestrians shivered from the cold and put on more clothes. When the wind got tired, it gave way to the sun."

"The sun initially cast its gentle rays upon the pedestrians, who then removed the extra layers of clothing. The sun then unleashed its intense rays upon the earth, causing the pedestrians to sweat profusely. Gradually, unable to bear it any longer, they stripped off their clothes and jumped into the nearby river to bathe."

In the end, the sun won.

As Charlotte Katakuri listened to Admiral Kuzan's detailed account of the story, his face grew increasingly ashen.

It wasn't from anger, but from being frozen.

In this icy and snowy environment created by the frozen fruit, the temperature has already dropped to below zero degrees Celsius and is continuing to fall at a slow but steady pace.

The ground, assimilated by the glutinous fruit, was no longer recognizable. Now, it was covered with a thick layer of snow by the falling snowflakes. Each step was a struggle, with the snow easily reaching up to the calves.

It's conceivable that even after this battle ends, this wheat island, which belongs to Spring Island, will be forcibly transformed into a part of Winter Island, where it will be covered in snow and ice all year round.

Affected by the sub-zero temperature, a series of abilities of the Mochi Mochi Fruit were sealed, and the frostbite accumulated in Charlotte Katakuri's body spread further. Under the combined attack from the inside and outside, every action Charlotte Katakuri took brought him one step closer to defeat.

Charlotte Katakuri had no choice.

He either fights his way out before he is exhausted and defeated, or he gradually perishes under the influence of the environment.

For the safety of his brothers and sisters, Charlotte Katakuri had no other choice but to fight his way out and defeat Admiral Kuzan with all his might!

But why is this goal so far away?

Charlotte Katakuri wearily and mechanically wielded his heavy trident, slicing through countless ice shards in his path, scattering ice fragments across the ground. Yet, the figure of Kuzan, the Admiral of Aokiji, appeared as a series of blurry images in his eyes. A profound sense of exhaustion washed over him, and a thought seemed to echo in his ears:

"Sleep...sleep...a ​​good night's sleep will make you feel better..."

If you look at Charlotte Katakuri from the outside, you'll see that she's covered in a thick layer of snow, from her hair to her body. In the sub-zero temperatures, her lips are blue, her skin is frostbitten over a large area, and she even has frostbite. Her whole body is stiff like a zombie. With each step she takes, she is panting heavily, and her chest is like a broken exhaust fan, emitting a whimpering sound that she can't bear.

Chapter 413 Ruthless killing, endless hatred, incurable pain

If you look at Charlotte Katakuri from the outside, you'll see that she's covered in a thick layer of snow, from her hair to her body. In the sub-zero temperatures, her lips are blue, her skin is frostbitten over a large area, and she even has frostbite. Her whole body is stiff like a zombie. With each step she takes, she is panting heavily, and her chest is like a broken exhaust fan, emitting a whimpering sound that she can't bear.

About half an hour later, a layer of frigid ice began to cover Charlotte Katakuri from his feet, encasing him in a huge block of ice from head to toe, which shimmered with a cold luster in the sunlight.

Charlotte Katakuri, defeated!

Strictly speaking, Charlotte Katakuri is not weak; he possesses the strength of a Yonko commander. Under normal circumstances, he could fight on par with a Marine Admiral and would never be in such a sorry state.

Unfortunately, just as mentioned before, Charlotte Katakuri may seem to be fighting against Admiral Kuzan alone, but in reality, he is fighting against the entire Navy's think tank plus Admiral Kuzan.

From beginning to end, Charlotte Katakuri was completely outmaneuvered by Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji. Kuzan used the Ice-Ice Fruit to counter the Mochi Mochi Fruit, sealing Charlotte Katakuri's awakened fruit ability and rendering most of the Mochi Mochi Fruit's power useless. It was undoubtedly a pipe dream for Katakuri to defeat Admiral Kuzan of Aokiji on an island transformed into an ice domain, relying solely on physical skills.

It's fair to say that Charlotte Katakuri's loss was not unjust!

On another island.

A woman, as large as a giant, sensed something and looked towards the frozen wheat island, feeling the biting cold emanating from it. Even though it was more than five kilometers away, she could still feel a discomfort on her skin, and she frowned, thinking to herself:

"Katakuri actually lost?"

"How can this be!"

This stunningly beautiful woman, resembling a giant, possessed healthy, tanned skin, a tall and slender figure, and piercing blue eyes like clear sapphires. Her full lips were painted with glossy white lipstick, and her long, wavy hair was mostly hidden under a white hood, revealing only strands of white hair that obscured one cheek and her right eye. A thick, pale yellow scarf was wrapped around her neck, and she wore a pink striped bodysuit. Thick gloves covered her hands, and a rose tattoo adorned her right leg. She wore pink, patterned knee-high boots, making her look like a female knight.

Charlotte Smoothie, one of the three Sweet Commanders, is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the Jujuju Fruit ability.

At this moment, she was using the power of the Jujuju Fruit to store the water she usually extracted with her ability into her body, making her body and weapons exceptionally large, like giants, and possessing terrifying giant-like strength.

"Madam, where are you looking?"

A smug voice reached Charlotte Smoothie's ears, causing her expression to change slightly.

Immediately, meteorites began to fall from the sky, carrying terrifying power.

"You blind bastard!"

Charlotte Smoothie looked up into the distance and saw Admiral Fujitora smiling as he stood in his wooden clogs, raising his staff sword and summoning a meteorite. She was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
