Kizaru hung up the phone and smiled at the people present:
"Sa, you are my lovely subordinate. It's okay. Let's continue with the meeting."
"Esdeath?"
He crossed his hands, placed them on the table, and said calmly:
"The World Government will soon announce that Riwa will be stripped of his status as the candidate Shichibukai. With her there, Riwa will not be able to escape."
"Esdeath is your subordinate, so this mission will be left to you, Porusalino." Sengoku said.
"No, those people from Marigio are anxious to see me." Kizaru shook his head, "I'm leaving after the meeting."
"I'll go."
Akainu, who had been keeping his head down and silent, raised his head with a thick cigar in his mouth.
"If it weren't for Marie Joa's gang, I would have killed them long ago."
Esdeath hung up the phone.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise from below.
While talking on the phone earlier, two large axes suddenly flew from below. Annan directly drew his sword and faced them.
It should have landed on one of the pirate ships by now.
Esdeath's eyes flashed red and she raised her eyebrows.
He jumped and fell freely from a high place. When he approached the sea, the sea quickly froze.
"Since we are holding them back, we cannot let them escape."
She stretched out her right hand and made a fist fiercely.
"Freeze!"
Starting from Esdeath's feet, the seawater quickly froze, freezing the pirate ship firmly.
"Enemy found! Hurry and aim at her!"
Several nearby ships turned their guns and aimed at Esdeath.
"You want to defeat me with these few cannonballs? You are so weak." Esdeath casually cut off the incoming cannonballs and walked towards the pirate ship.
Seeing that the ship was frozen, the leader on the ship led the pirates off the ship and went straight to Esdeath.
"Kill!!"
A pirate took the lead in attacking, holding a long knife in his hand, jumping up and slashing at Esdeath.
Esdeath stretched out her arm and shattered the long knife the moment she got closer. The palm of her hand appeared on the pirate's face. She grabbed his face and slammed it onto the ice.
"Bang!"
A lot of ice and snow splashed on the ice.
He shook his hand, not even looking at the pirate lying on the ground.
"You guys are the most annoying."
Esdeath's eyes narrowed.
"Collapse!"
The pirates who surrounded them all rolled their eyes and fell down, leaving only a few people on the ice still holding on.
"If you can't even resist this, you have no right to be my opponent."
With a raised hand and a finger, the ice under the pirates' feet began to cover their legs and feet, gradually enveloping them.
"Hey, is your leader going to send you bastards down here to die?" Esdeath walked up to a pirate.
"Is there anyone stronger?"
The pirate in front of him looked horrified and stammered: "Every captain of every ship has power comparable to that of a person with abilities. But, they seem to be not as strong as you..."
"Oh, thank you."
Then, Esdeath kicked him away.
"People who give in so easily are really boring."
Esdeath's eyes focused on a man in a suit holding a scythe on the bow of the ship.
"It looks fine, let me warm you up first."
Esdeath's right hand is held empty, and an ice sword is condensed.
"Oh, am I the target?" The man put his hands on the sickle and smiled slightly.
On the ice, Esdeath's figure disappeared instantly, and appeared behind the man almost at the same time, with the ice sword piercing his neck.
The man was smiling and motionless, as if he had anticipated Esdeath's attack.
Esdeath suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis and immediately put away her sword and distanced herself.
"What a pity." The man carrying the sickle expressed regret.
At this time, we are on the pirate ship on the other side.
Annan is sitting on a person, throwing a big ax in his hand.
"Two... big axes?" Annan looked at the ax with a strange expression.
"What a familiar name."
He glanced at the pirates around him who were clutching their weapons.
"What's wrong? Won't you come to rescue your captain? Show some courage, babies."
"Damn it, a man as powerful as Captain Dayis has been defeated. How can we win?" A pirate said bitterly.
"Don't be afraid!"
Another pirate bravely walked to the front.
"He only has one person, and we have 300 people. If we can't defeat him in close combat, we will use muskets!"
"Yes, use a musket!"
The pirates nodded one after another and took out their muskets and pointed them at Annan.
"But the captain is still under this damn navy." A certain pirate said weakly.
"Asshole! Put down the gun quickly!" Daez shouted.
"Captain, I'm sorry, we will kill this marine to avenge you later." The leading pirate said solemnly.
"How can it be repaired?" Before Dayis could finish speaking, Annan snapped his fingers.
"Shiranui·Ignite."
Suddenly, fire broke out all over the ship, and screams continued.
After discovering that the flames on their bodies could not be extinguished, the pirates jumped off the boat one after another. What they encountered was not the sea as they imagined, but the cold and hard ice.
The open-air cremation looked like hell on earth. Dais was so shocked by the sight before him that he was speechless.
"Huh? Are you so decisive?" Annan turned to look at the flagship.
The huge flagship's cannon not far away turned and aimed at the pirate ship where Annan was.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Continuous artillery fire hit it, directly blowing it to pieces.
There are constant reports in the command room on the flagship.
"The hull of the No. 5 ship is frozen and cannot move!"
"The propeller of ship No. 3 is stuck by an unknown object and cannot be moved!"
…………
"The crew of ship No. 7 launched an attack on the enemy. The whole army was wiped out!"
"Ship No. 4 was attacked! The attacker is alone, and Master Maka is fighting with her!"
"Ship No. 6 was completely destroyed in the bombardment, and the enemy's current status is unknown."
Seven ships were in a mess, and in the ice-covered area, the battlefield was dominated by two people.
The first officer walked up to Liva.
"General, we have found out, there are only two people blocking us..."
After the report, the captain stood aside and remained silent.
Liwa looked at the burning No. 7 ship, and the paper of life in his hand had turned into ashes.
"Dais...has he died for his country..." Levi closed his eyes and murmured.
"Royce, Dais... I failed to fulfill my promise and brought you back to the empire..."
"General..." the captain said quickly, "please don't blame yourself."
"When the flying birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit is dead, the running dogs are cooked. This is obviously a trick of the Celestial Dragon. Seeing that our strength is gradually growing, he wants to take this opportunity to suppress us..."
"Okay, Holly." Levi interrupted the captain, took off the glove on his right hand, and gently wiped the dragon head ring on his middle finger.
"If this continues, this place will become a battlefield for those two people."
"Are you going to take action yourself?" Holly was a little surprised.
"I had already taken action before, but it was resolved by those two brats."
Levi put his gloves back on.
"Notify all captains to go support Macca."
"The person who killed Daesh, I will kill him with my own hands."
