Chapter 193 Reunion with Shia, Momonosuke who was influenced
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The roar continued to spread over the training ground, time passed little by little, and the sky turned completely dark.
In the blink of an eye, Akainu and Nosha had fought each other for dozens of rounds.
After landing on both sides again, the two looked at each other, and then rushed out again, announcing the end of the petty trial, the battle began to heat up, and both sides were getting serious.
"Pluto!"
At the same time as the low roar sounded, Akainu's right hand, which had already turned into hot lava, suddenly clenched into a fist and struck at Nosha's chest at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye!
It looks familiar. It seems that this is the move that killed Ace and blew off half of Whitebeard's face?
While this thought flashed through his mind, Nosha's hand was not slow at all. The dark red blade of Azakana's sword slashed horizontally from bottom to top, and met Akainu's lava fist head-on.
boom!
The low muffled sound, like the thunder behind the gathering of dark clouds, spread in all directions.
In the eyes of countless sailors, after the two figures collided with each other, they were evenly matched and stagnated in place!
Gululu!
The hot magma kept splashing during the collision, but it still failed to break through the armament attached to the Nosha sword blade. It just continued to disappear and disintegrate, making Akainu raise his eyebrows and look surprised.
"The armed color is a little stronger than I thought, boy."
He spoke in a low voice and gradually increased his strength, "But if it's only to this level, it's not enough!"
With a muffled sound, Akainu suddenly exerted force on his right arm and opened the sword of Azakana.
And the free left arm, at some point, turned into a hideous and terrifying dog-headed image, with red light flashing from the front and back of the body, carrying the blazing heat, biting towards Nuo Xia's head!
Dog bites red lotus!
This is also Akainu's best melee attack. Like a vicious dog crawling out of hell, it can easily tear off the enemy's head and melt its body into a pool of blood.
After these days of hard practice, Nuo Xia's armament has improved a lot.
But in the face of such fierce and strange skills, he finally couldn't hold on completely. Akainu found an opening and punched him in the chest.
Boom!
With a deep muffled sound, Nuo Xia's entire body was thrown high into the sky, like a puppet with its strings cut off, and hit the wall dozens of meters away.
The originally hard and thick wall was now as fragile as a glacier, and even the barbed wire was melted by the residual high temperature carried by Noxia's body.
In the dripping lava, Nuo Xia slapped the ground with his backhand, jumped up, and stood firm.
Boo hoo...
His bare chest was red and steaming with heat, but the burns on his chest were quickly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they were back to their original state in the blink of an eye, without any trace of blood.
"I was careless and didn't get out of the way."
He shook off the ashes of his clothes, clenched his swords again, looked up at the astonished Akainu opposite him, and grinned:
"It still hurts a little. As expected of Mr. Sakaski."
"..."
Does it just hurt a little?
Akainu looked at the chest that had recovered as before, and was speechless for a while. This move of his had directly damaged many pirates with a bounty of over 100 million in the New World, but when it landed on this guy, it felt like it was just scratching an itch.
?
This kind of terrifying physique makes even him feel ashamed. He is simply a humanoid monster...
"Next, it's my turn to draw my sword."
Nosha's voice suddenly came, Akainu's eyes narrowed and he immediately looked up.
Nuo Xia was seen on the other side, holding the Wind Sword and Azakana Sword high above his head. The aura on his body was condensed like a hurricane, and the sword blades were almost simultaneously covered with a dark armed color.
Buzz!
The next moment, the sword blade fell, and the brilliance, as bright as the silver moon, suddenly erupted at this moment, making the entire training ground under the hazy night seem like daylight!
Double Sword Flower Slash·Lunar Eclipse!
The magnificent sword energy whistling out was obscured by this brilliance, and at a terrifying speed that was difficult to see clearly with the naked eye, it crossed hundreds of meters in the sky and slashed towards Akainu!
"What a weird swordsmanship..."
Under that brilliance that was as bright as the rising moon, Akainu also lost his vision for a short time, and could not help but squint his eyes and murmur in a low voice.
However, based on what he had seen and heard, he could feel the terrifying aspect of the whistling sword energy. He did not dare to be careless at that moment. He roared, crossed his arms at the same time, and blasted out with all his strength!
"Two-armed Inugami·Lava Hell!"
The surging hot magma immediately collided head-on with the sword energy that was like a giant white python!
Rumble!
A deafening explosion suddenly resounded through the entire G1 branch at this moment.
And when the dazzling light gradually dissipated, all the surrounding sailors finally regained their sight and could barely see the scene in front of them clearly.
I was shocked to see that Akainu's figure had been forced to retreat to the southernmost end of the training ground, panting violently, and large areas of magma dripped down from his body, melting the surrounding ground and turning it into a field of magma.
ocean.
Nuo Xia, on the other hand, was pushed back further, and his whole body was lying on the ground in the shape of a big letter, looking quite miserable.
The skin on his body had been burned to pieces in many places, his eyebrows and eyelashes were all burned away, and a huge fist-shaped pit appeared on his chest, which collapsed by more than ten centimeters.
"Is it too harsh to start with..."
When Akainu saw this, he felt a little guilty. He was also confused. He said he would go all out before, but after he was hit on the head, he really didn't pay attention to it at all...
If this junior, whom he was extremely optimistic about, was seriously injured, he would have to face Teacher Zefa and the Warring States General back at the headquarters for a while.
He shook his head and strode forward. Just as he was about to reach out and pull Nuo Xia up, the latter had already stood up, rubbing his chest and muttering:
"Hiss~ It's scalding people to death. Fighting with natural ability users is troublesome. I almost got disfigured..."
Just these few sentences.
Akainu clearly saw that Nosha's eyebrows and eyelashes had grown back, and the areas that had been burned by the lava and exposed the flesh, flesh, and bones were also healing at an even faster rate than before.
The collapsed chest began to tremble slightly. After just over ten seconds, it returned to its original state without any abnormality.
What a complete monster!
Akainu was horrified and froze there. The words of comfort that were about to reach his lips were stuck in his throat. For a moment, he didn't know how to speak.
"That's about it, Lieutenant General."
In the end, it was Nuo Xia who broke the strange silence. He looked up at the sky, smiled and said:
"It's getting late, and it's time for me to leave for my mission. I lost this competition. I'm not as strong as others, so I'm resigned to losing. I'll give it another try when I get the chance next time."
"Um."
Akainu also meant the same thing. After looking at his watch, he shook his head with a wry smile, "Six hours have passed. It seems that I have to stay up late again to finish my official duties today..."
"As for saying that your skills are inferior to others, let's stop saying that. You are only twenty years old. I tried my best and it took me so long to defeat you. It is already embarrassing..."
Really? It would be embarrassing to win?
Nosha scratched her hair and looked around from the corner of her eyes, realizing that it was exactly what Akainu said, even though she was at a disadvantage this time and was defeated.
But the surrounding sailors who were watching were still full of disbelief, and their eyes were shining brightly when they looked at him, full of admiration and admiration...
Come to think of it.
Although Akainu is not yet a general, and his strength is still far from his peak, he is already firmly ranked among the top five in the entire naval headquarters.
In the eyes of these subordinates who get along day and night, he guards the new world alone, defeats countless pirates, has great military exploits, and has an extremely tall image, like an unrivaled god of war.
The fact that he could fight Akainu to such an extent was already shocking...
After this heart-wrenching battle, the relationship between Nosha and Akainu has become closer invisibly.
Although it is still far inferior to the blue pheasant and yellow ape, the initial sense of politeness and alienation has gradually dissipated.
Akainu even deliberately stayed with Nosha to have dinner in the restaurant, and asked someone to fetch a suit that fit him well. Then he said goodbye to Nosha and hurried to the top-floor office to deal with complicated official duties.
He was obviously the top officer of the base, and he still lived like a conscientious programmer. Nuo Xia looked at the other person's retreating back and couldn't help but sigh——
If Kizaru can consciously work overtime and not procrastinate to catch fish like this, then the G2 branch will have to find ways to recruit him, a model worker, to take on the important role?
The dinner provided by the G1 branch tasted quite good. As Nuo Xia filled his stomach, he recalled the previous competition in his mind and summarized his shortcomings.
After all, it's his colleague Tozawa, and Akainu can't really use all his killing moves without mercy like he did in a life and death battle.
But Nosha can still clearly realize that there is still a clear gap in overall strength between himself and Akainu.
In terms of basic physical fitness, his endurance may be about the same. Even because of various talents and skills, his defense ability or body's ability to withstand beatings is even higher than the latter.
But in terms of strength and agility, the opponent is still stronger after all, and as for the Armed Haki and the Wisdom Haki, I am even worse by more than a star.
As for physical skills.
There are also differences visible to the naked eye.
In Nosha's view, although Akainu's strength relies on the natural devil fruit in many aspects, his own strength is also quite terrifying. It integrates offense and defense. Without the ability, he is just a low-end version of Garp. He has almost no weaknesses and is absolutely
hexagonal warrior.
In comparison.
If you want to reach this level, you still have a way to go.
"According to Tieba combat mechanics, Akainu Aokiji is probably at the level of a lieutenant general and a half-step general."
Nuo Xia drank the hot borscht in one gulp and thought happily, "As for me, I'm probably at the eleventh or second level of a late lieutenant general?"
Of course, this is just a prank idea after all.
There is often a relationship of mutual restraint of abilities between strong men. When it comes to a life-and-death battle, they will be affected by various environmental conditions. It will not be surprising to see who is evenly matched with the other.
In the pirate world, combat mechanics are not so rigorous.
——————
After dinner, Nuo Xia did not delay any longer and left the G1 branch that night, leading the ship straight to the Paja Kingdom.
Compared to the first half, the weather in the New World is much weirder and worse.
One moment it may be sunny and sunny, but the next moment there may be lightning and thunder, and after the downpour, another burst of hail will fall wildly, which is completely unpredictable.
Even with the existence of a permanent pointer, Nuoxia's journey was quite arduous, and it took him a full week to finally reach his destination.
The Paja Kingdom is not that small. If you get to the royal capital from the coast, it will take at least several days to go back and forth.
Therefore, in order to save time, Nuoxia asked his subordinates to contact the royal family in advance and asked them to wait in the coastal city for the envoys sent to the Holy Land to participate in the meeting.
The other party immediately expressed their understanding and cooperation, and stated that because His Majesty the King is old and unable to travel far, this mission will be led by Her Royal Highness Princess Shia, who will be fully responsible for matters related to this meeting.
This was not unexpected by Nuo Xia.
He leaned on the bow of the boat and looked leisurely at the silhouette of the seaside city in the distance, with an elusive smile on his face.
It was a long journey, and it took more than a month to get here from the West China Sea. It was indeed hard work.
Although he was moved by Xia's revealed feelings and was so passionate that he did this, he didn't regret it now.
On the other hand, he kept the news to himself. In the Paja Kingdom, they still don’t know who the general responsible for the escort mission is.
I don’t know how Sia will react after suddenly seeing herself...
————
at the same time.
Thousands of kilometers away, in the isolated country of Wano, the war between the Beast Pirates and the resistance of the Kozuki family has finally come to an end.
Kaido's side won a great victory, and the legendary daimyo Kozuki Oden who once asked Roger the Pirate King to kneel down to Whitebeard and pray to be brought on board.
After leaving behind the heroic words "I, Oden, am the oden of the old era, and there is no pot queen who can carry me in the new world," he was executed by Kaido and died laughing happily.
In order to avoid being pursued, Mrs. Kozuki Toki used all her strength at the moment before the pursuers were about to arrive, activated the power of the Fruit of Time, and sent the tearful Momonosuke and the Nine Heroes of the Red Scabbard to protect him.
Twenty years later.
I hope they can avenge Kozuki Oden in the distant future, defeat Kaido and Black Carbon Orochi, and restore the country of Wano.
However.
Perhaps because he was arrested due to the drought, Kaido's anger was much greater than in the original timeline, and his attacks were more ruthless.
Raizo and Kikunoshi in the Nine Heroes of the Red Scabbard died on the way to escape. In the end, only Kanjuro and Kinemon traveled through time with Momonosuke.
As for Mrs. Shi, under the influence of the butterfly effect, her physical condition was even worse than in the original timeline. She was exhausted and could not fully control her abilities.
therefore.
No one knew that the time and space where Momonosuke and his two samurai subordinates went was not twenty years later.
But it is the year 1511 of the Haiyuan calendar...
