Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Extremely cold white aura emanated from Aokiji's body and spread rapidly in all directions.

The turbulent sea of ​​the New World, upon contact with this white, frigid air, was instantly frozen solid by the extreme cold, and the incredibly thick white ice layer spread outwards at an unimaginable speed.

In the blink of an eye, the sea beneath this naval warship was completely frozen by Aokiji's "Ice Age," turning it into a boundless icy continent.

As for this naval warship, it was also frozen to the surface of the sea by this extreme cold force and could no longer move.

"That's amazing!"

As soon as Nami said those words, she immediately realized what she meant and quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

However, her wide-open eyes betrayed the shock she felt.

Standing next to Nami, Ain and Binz were equally shocked.

In an instant, the sea froze.

Is this the strength of a Navy Admiral?

Compared to these "young people," Storm and the others seemed much calmer.

Zephyr and Kizaru were already aware of the effects of Aokiji's Ice-Ice Fruit.

With Aokiji's abilities, the icy continent he created could last for at least a week if it were not affected by external forces.

Storm knew this too.

He had originally planned to drag Aokiji and Zephyr up to the sky to fight...

However, since Aokiji had created the "battlefield" on his own initiative, he didn't mind.

"This level should be enough, right?"

Aokiji's palm was covered with a few ice shards as he turned to look at Storm.

What do you think?

"It's alright!"

Storm replied casually.

The next moment, he leaped into the air, and a blue-eyed white dragon emerged from the void.

Aokiji and Zephyr followed suit, jumping directly onto the back of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

The three boarded the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and flew directly towards the distant extreme ice plains, thereby creating distance between themselves and the naval battleships.

"The captain has flown away."

Nami gazed at the blue-eyed white dragon in front of her for a while, then turned her head to look around.

Two marines in naval uniforms, and a sleazy-looking admiral...

This place did make Nami feel uncomfortable.

However, out of politeness, she still asked the question.

"I'm flying there now, anyone want to come along?"

Don't agree!

Nami roared inwardly.

But Kizaru clearly doesn't understand what the girl is thinking.

"Thank you so much, Nami-san."

Seeing that Kizaru had agreed, Ain and Binz nodded repeatedly.

These two also wanted to watch the battle between Zephyr, Admiral Aokiji, and the "White Dragon Emperor" up close!

Nami's lips twitched slightly, but she still managed to create a solidified white cloud in time.

They followed Blue-Eyes White Dragon, accompanied by Kizaru, Ain, and Binz.

"That's really amazing!"

Despite wearing Seastone, Kizaru still spoke with composure.

"Miss Nami, are you a cloud person who ate the Cloud-Cloud Fruit?"

Kizaru was very polite.

Nami still felt a strong sense of discomfort, and she gave a dry laugh.

"Haha—yes—"

Kizaru probably realized his presence and the intense pressure he exerted on the "navigator of the Storm Pirates," so he simply shut his mouth and silently experienced this special and novel way of flying.

The feeling of soaring through the clouds is really wonderful!

Once the Blue-Eyes White Dragon had flown out to a safe distance, it was to ensure that the subsequent battle would not affect or harm the naval warships behind it.

Storm then jumped off the head of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and landed heavily on the frigid ice field below.

Bang! Crack!

However, the moment Storm landed, his landing sent up a cloud of ice shards.

These misty ice shards were manipulated and surrounded Storm's feet. Hard, cold ice blocks formed out of thin air, freezing his legs to the frigid ice field below.

Obviously.

This is the work of some "frozen person"!

Obviously.

The battle began the instant Storm landed!

Storm didn't pay attention to the ice beneath his feet for the moment. As soon as he looked up, he heard another roaring sound.

Houndstone looked closely and saw a large chunk of ice crashing heavily onto the frigid ice field.

If you look closely, you'll find that inside this large block of ice, a pure white, slender, blue-eyed dragon is frozen solid.

When Aokiji froze "White Dragon King", he also froze "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" at the same time!

"Don't call me despicable, Storm."

Aokiji stood atop the large ice block formed by the Blue-Eyes White Dragon, looking down at the White Dragon Emperor below. Two icy spheres coalesced in his hands, and a surge of icy energy emanated from behind him.

"You are the Pirate Emperor!"

"puck!"

Like a pitcher, Aokiji threw the two pucks in his hands with all his might.

The chill behind him transformed into several towering white icicles, closely following the ice puck.

Attack the White Dragon Emperor, who is temporarily unable to move on the ice plains ahead.

Wow!

Storm looked at the oncoming ice balls, and before he could move, they exploded like bombs, releasing the terrifying cold air hidden inside them.

A large amount of cold air surrounded and enveloped Storm's body, creating a huge block of ice, as tall as a person, centered on him.

On the "spectator seats" of the white clouds in the sky.

Nami looked alarmed. "The captain's frozen!"

"Truly worthy of being Admiral Aokiji!"

"His Ice-Ice Fruit is amazing!"

Binz and Ian couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Kizaru shook his head.

"Kuzan's Ice-Ice Fruit is far from enough to freeze Storm!"

Only domineering power can overcome everything!

Just as Kizaru uttered those words.

The icy battlefield below has undergone a sudden and unexpected change.

Just as Storm was frozen in the ice and turned into an ice sculpture, he suddenly unleashed an extremely powerful [Conqueror's Haki].

Black and red arcs of electricity erupted from the ice, easily cracking and shattering the incredibly solid block of ice.

The ice, powerful enough to freeze a giant, was easily evaporated and melted when it met Storm's Conqueror's Haki, just like spring snow meeting the scorching summer sun.

Storm's [Conqueror's Haki] continued to be released and spread outwards.

The blue pheasant was the first to be hit, and felt its hair stand on end.

"This level of [Conqueror's Haki]..."

When Storm first appeared, he immediately used Conqueror's Haki to stun all the "unauthorized personnel" on the entire naval warship.

Aokiji immediately felt that Storm's mastery of Conqueror's Haki was unparalleled.

However, the opponent's [Conqueror's Haki] strength is still slightly insufficient.

But at this moment.

As Aokiji felt Storm's unrestrained release of Conqueror's Haki, a few beads of cold sweat involuntarily seeped from his forehead.

The intensity of this Conqueror's Haki is compared to the intensity of the Conqueror's Haki that Storm released when he first appeared---"·

It's like night and day!

"Don't let your guard down, Kuzan."

As Zefa adjusted to his "regained" right arm, he gave him earnest instructions.

"The one on the other side is the 'White Dragon Emperor'!"

Zefa had barely finished speaking.

Another booming sound came from the other side.

Houndstone's feet slammed heavily onto the surface of the frigid ice field, and the powerful recoil shattered the surrounding ice, creating a huge crater several meters wide on the ice field.

Amidst the scattering of ice fragments, Storm's figure shot out like an arrow, rapidly heading towards the spot where the Blue-Eyes White Dragon had fallen.

"Wow, that's fast!"

Aokiji gritted his teeth slightly and waved his hands repeatedly, sending ice balls flying from his hands and bombarding the approaching Storm continuously.

But having already tasted the freezing sensation of "ice hockey," Storm will no longer be hit by Aokiji's moves.

The same move is ineffective against the White Dragon Emperor!

Storm easily passed through the "gunfire" made of countless ice balls and rushed unimpeded to the location of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

He raised his jet-black right fist, which was wrapped in Armament Haki, and threw a simple straight punch at the huge block of ice that the Blue-Eyes White Dragon had transformed into.

boom!

It was just one punch.

Storm then smashed the huge block of ice to pieces, blasting the Blue-Eyes White Dragon inside into small clay fragments.

Aokiji and Zephyr, who were originally standing on this giant block of ice, also lost their footing.

They all leaped into the air.

However, ice fragments and clay pieces flew everywhere, forming a white misty area.

It blocked Aokiji and Zephyr's view.

Two red lights shone in Aokiji's eyes as he instantly activated his Observation Haki, attempting to penetrate the white mist below and pinpoint Storm's location.

To Aokiji's surprise, his Observation Haki failed to detect Storm's presence at all!

It was as if Storm had vanished from this icy plain!

How is that possible?!

Just as Aokiji was in shock.

A figure crackling with black and red electric arcs shot out from the white mist and soared into the sky.

Aokiji felt the scene before him suddenly blur, and the black and red figure appeared in front of him.

The next instant, a black hand, simultaneously imbued with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, gripped his neck like an iron clamp.

"Give this a try!"

Storm gripped Aokiji's neck with his right hand, the icy chill attempting to freeze his arm, but was forcibly dispelled by the power of [Haki].

"Underwater—fall—" Storm grabbed Aokiji by the neck and, like throwing a cannonball, hurled the Marine Headquarters Admiral directly into the frigid ice field below.

It was like a shooting star from outer space.

Aokiji was thrown by Storm onto the frigid ice field below with almost no chance to resist.

With a deafening roar, the frigid ice field cracked and shattered instantly, revealing a deep, dark pit that led directly to the sea below, and an earth-shattering roar erupted.

Aokiji's figure disappeared directly into the depths of this icy plain.

Storm's body was still wreathed in astonishing black and red arcs of electricity, and his eyes calmly looked at Zephyr beside him.

"Your turn, Professor Zephyr!"
