Konoha's Mission Master

The black blade had pierced his chest, and golden electricity coursed through his body, paralyzing the minotaur and rendering him unable to move.

The bright silver blade sliced ​​through the air, severing the bones connecting the head and body.

All CP4 members stationed in the Sabaody Archipelago were killed.

The thick fog gradually dissipated.

Yakumo stored all the information from the past few days into a storage scroll, intending to review it later when he had time.

In the Sabaody Archipelago, all three detectable CP department outposts have been annihilated.

As Yakumo walked down the street, the fire in his heart began to subside slightly.

The next goal is... to infiltrate Marineford!

Let the caravan members rest in peace.

In his life, he least wanted to burden others because of himself.

Yakumo swung his sword to kill the pirates and save the caravan. In the following days, the merchant ship took him to the Sabaody Archipelago, which was a fair trade.

But those people died because of him, and that is a debt he owes.

Marineford, Naval Headquarters.

The great war that broke out two years ago completely changed the layout of the island. The original huge concave harbor has completely disappeared and been transformed into an elliptical harbor.

The square in front of the execution platform extends outwards for several kilometers.

It appears to be more spacious than before. According to the Navy's original plan, when Whitebeard dies, the balance between the Four Emperors will be broken, and the Navy will then forcefully enter the New World.

At that time, a brand new headquarters will be built in the new world.

Unfortunately... the appearance of the Thousand-Faced Demon King disrupted the Navy's plans. Whitebeard did not die in the Marineford War, and the Navy became a laughing stock for everyone.

In one corner of the square stood a dozen giant bronze pillars, the purpose of which was to hang the bodies of the most unforgivable sinners.

The bodies of caravan members hang here.

This is also Yakumo's goal.

Chakra enveloped his entire body.

Yakumo approached Marineford from the seabed, constantly dodging the searchlights in the sky and the underwater netting.

The distance between Marineford and the Sabaody Archipelago is like an insurmountable chasm, blocking all enemies who attempt to infiltrate underwater, unless the infiltrator is a fish-man with the ability to breathe underwater.

Yakumo was creating a miracle at this moment. First of all, his physical attributes were able to support long periods of underwater diving.

Secondly, the surrounding seawater is isolated by chakra, and under manipulation, it even becomes an aid to moving forward.

Yakumo's head surfaced.

Under the cover of night, Yakumo rolled over to the edge of Marineford Island. Looking up, he saw the nearly 100-meter-high Naval Headquarters building, with doves of peace almost everywhere, and white military flags fluttering in the wind.

Yakumo took a step forward, activating Sage Mode.

He stealthily crept towards the bronze pillar of sinners, the faint mist spreading out as a natural camouflage.

As he stepped fully onto the square, four squadrons of navy were patrolling in each of the four corners.

"Hoohoohoo."

Yakumo adjusted his breathing, bent slightly, lowered his center of gravity, and carefully observed the surrounding situation, while trying to find blind spots in the sight of the four patrol teams.

But soon... he was disappointed.

The four teams proceeded along the established route, and with the occasional flickering searchlights on the high platform, there were virtually no blind spots. In other words, he had no choice but to force his way through the final stretch.

The footsteps moved silently.

Yakumo moved like a night owl, quickly gliding towards her target along the almost vertical wall while completely concealing her energy fluctuations.

The sinner's bronze pillar, only 500 meters away.

But... he was eventually exposed.

The bright searchlights came crashing down, and Yakumo didn't even have time to find a way around, completely exposing himself to the sight of the on-duty navy.

The next second, the phone rang loudly.

"Someone has infiltrated!!"

Countless fireworks exploded in mid-air.

Yakumo's legs exploded, and a large crater about two meters in diameter appeared in the wall beneath his feet in an instant, hurtling towards the sinner's bronze pillar like an arrowhead.

A thick, leaden-gray fog surged and spread wildly, obscuring everything.

In the second, Yakumo arrived beneath the bronze pillar.

From a distance, Yakumo didn't think these bronze pillars were that tall, but when he actually stood in front of them, he realized that they were about ten meters tall, incredibly towering.

The corpses, somewhat dried out by the sunlight, occasionally emitted eerie sounds carried by the wind.

Against the backdrop of night, it appeared particularly terrifying.

The surface of the bronze pillar is engraved with a list of various crimes.

The most frequently appearing word is... Celestial Dragon.

Those codes representing the rules seemed to have been created specifically to highlight the privileges of the Celestial Dragons, stipulating their supreme status and privileges.

Yakumo created shadow clones and quickly gathered up the corpses.

Stuff them all into the storage scroll.

A dozen seconds later, Yakumo withdrew his shadow clone.

Ice Age!

The bitter cold descended in an instant.

Yakumo moved swiftly across the plaza, dodging Aokiji's attacks, while countless disheveled marines carrying long swords or guns rushed into the mist.

"The enemy is the Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor. No one below the rank of lieutenant general is allowed to participate in the battle!"

In mid-air, Aokiji exhaled a white, chilling breath and gave an order to the navy soldiers running on the platform.

"Ten times gravity!"

Chapter 234 Dungeon World: The King's Redemption VII

The words "Thousand-Faced Demon Emperor" seemed to possess some kind of magic, causing the weaker marines to retreat without looking back, leaving the surroundings empty in the blink of an eye.

The dense fog moved and spread.

In a matter of seconds, Yakumo was running wildly on the sea.

Behind him... a fierce cold current continued to invade, and the sea was completely frozen, but Yakumo ran at a speed far exceeding Aokiji's speed.

At this moment, Yakumo remained completely calm, after all, the combat power of a mere general was simply insufficient to stop him.

Let's have six more like that!

Suddenly, Fujitora descended from the sky and appeared in Yakumo's path, using the power of his Devil Fruit to briefly levitate.

Two admirals-level combatants coordinated the pursuit.

A cold current surges, freezing the sea surface, and you feel ten times the force of gravity.

Yakumo's steps faltered slightly as Aokiji caught up from behind.

Yakumo found himself in an unprecedented predicament.

"It's my fault... I'm just too overly compassionate."

Fujitora's Devil Fruit is the Paramecia-type Gravity Fruit, which means he can create gravity zones, but he cannot change himself into gravity.

In other words... within the gravity field he created, everyone, including himself, had to endure ten times the gravity.

"Um... could you pretend you didn't see me today?"

Yakumo scratched his head... his tone was slightly helpless. In his original plan, he intended to take the bodies and then immediately retreat to a deserted island to bury them.

But... plans can't keep up with changes.

"Ice Shard Sword".

Aokiji didn't reply. He immediately transformed the ice into a sharp blade and slid across the ice towards Yakumo. At the same time, Fujitora in front of him also swung his staff sword, which was covered in Armament Haki, to attack.

Fumo slid out of the sword box and gripped the blade with both hands.

Under the influence of ten times the gravity, the three moved somewhat slowly, but overall Yakumo controlled the rhythm of the battle. However, he was also in danger of being caught in the crossfire between the two.

Yakumo swung his sword, creating distance between them.

This can't go on... he thought to himself.

This is, after all, near the Navy Headquarters. If this continues, the Navy is likely to send reinforcements, at which point his situation will become even more dangerous, and it may even affect his plans for several days.

Yakumo made up his mind to stop bothering her.

"Extreme Blade Slash".

The ultimate is the condensation to the extreme, with infinite energy gathered at the blade's edge and continuously compressed under Yakumo's manipulation.

Yakumo dodged their attacks left and right, while pale golden flames extended outwards from the Demon-Subduing Sword in his hand.

"I control the wind."

Yakumo dodged Aokiji's attack with agility, and with a slight swing of his sword, a pale blue storm swirled around him.

They temporarily forced the two to retreat.

"Ice Cube - Exploding Baby Mouth!"

As the pheasant retreated, its right arm transformed into ice, vaguely outlining the shape of a giant bird. In a flash, the shape of its feathers became quite realistic, especially its beak, which resembled a sharp ice sword.

Icewing spreads its wings, attempting to soar.

But Aokiji hurled it straight at Yakumo.

Under the influence of ten times the gravity, the power of this move became even more terrifying. Before it even landed, the surrounding air exploded with a loud bang.
