One Piece: Beginning as the Monkey King

The moment Akainu's devil fruit awakened, the ground began to transform, from the original land to magma.

The magma range became larger and larger, and the tree roots and building ruins were also assimilated into hot lava, gurgling and flowing.

Soon Bardock had nowhere to stay.

"Hey, that's too much, Akainu, if you do this, this island will be destroyed."

Bardock jumped into the air with the Moon Step, looking at the magma zone that was still expanding with a headache.

"Huh! Moon Step? Get down!"

Akainu ignored Bardock's nonsense, and a huge lava palm emerged from the magma, slapping Bardock in the air like slapping a fly.

Although Bardock was in mid-air, he had mastered the Moon Step to perfection. He changed his body shape and passed through the gap between the giant fingers very skillfully.

"Huh, that was close!"

After dodging the giant hand, Bardock wiped off the non-existent sweat. But the next moment, he could no longer relax.

One after another, giant lava hands emerged from the magma, slapping, grasping, or punching, forcing Bardock to jump around in the air like a mouse.

These giant hands were transformed from the magma controlled by Akainu with the power of the fruit. They were not part of Akainu's body. Bardock did not waste his energy to smash these giant lava hands.

"Found it!"

After a few attempts, Bardock sensed Akainu's position, moved his body, and moved a few points faster. He instantly broke through the obstruction of the giant lava hands and hit Akainu's head with a stick.

If this stick hits, the admiral of the navy will also be stunned for a while.

"You've been fooled!"

Akainu was not panicked at all when facing Bardock who suddenly came at him. Instead, he was well prepared. Endless magma suddenly erupted from his body.

These magmas were like a huge wave, falling towards Bardock head-on.

At the same time, the giant lava hands left behind by Bardock also blocked Bardock's space to retreat.

There were huge waves in front of him, no way to retreat behind him, and even the sky was full of magma. Bardock remained calm and composed. He swung countless stick shadows upwards at a very fast speed, and the "stick energy" created a passage to the outside world like a whirlwind.

Once the passage was completed, Bardock jumped up and finally escaped the magma attack.

If he fell into the magma, Bardock asked himself that although he was not afraid of the high temperature in it, he would be in Akainu's rhythm at that time.

"Hell Dog!"

Before Bardock, who had just escaped, could stabilize his body, Akainu arrived above Bardock and punched him with a lava fist.

Bang!

Bardock only had time to intercept Akainu's attack with his golden hoop.

The fist blocked it, but Bardock's body could not help falling down.

Plop!

After a wave of lava, Bardock fell into the lava as Akainu expected.

"Sink! Pirate!"

Akainu did not relax. He began to mobilize the surrounding magma to gather here. He believed that even Bardock's fruit ability could not completely ignore his magma fruit ability.

There was a brief silence, just when Rayleigh in the dark was about to intervene.

"Roar!"

A half-beast roar came from the magma.

The next moment, a huge monster emerged from the magma sea. This is a giant ape. He is very big, with most of his body exposed above the lava sea, and golden hair flowing with magma. It is Bardock's Monkey King Maximized.

Pah, pah, pah...

The giant ape was spitting out magma at an inappropriate time. He just accidentally choked on a big mouthful.

"Roar!"

Roaring again, Bardock glared at Akainu. He was careless and didn't dodge. Then he would have to play hard.

Akainu frowned and became more determined.
