Grand Line’s Lord Of Shadows

With the sea surface frozen, the temperature of the entire sea area dropped sharply.

The biting cold wind made people shiver uncontrollably.

 "Tsk, tsk, did the entire sea freeze in an instant?"

On the immobile warship, Luke glanced around at the sea, which was frozen in an instant. Then he switched his gaze to Aokiji in front of him and smiled: "I have to say, Ice-Ice Fruit has really amazing abilities!"

"Thanks to you, I have been running around all day to reach your location, and even my vacation had to be canceled!"

Aokiji walked slowly on the frozen sea surface while examining the other party: "You let Nico Robin escape alone and wanted to stay here to block me?"

"As a former elite CP9, don't you know what kind of person she is?"

His eyes were somewhat cold, and he warned unceremoniously: "This woman will only bring misfortune to others... Anyone who has anything to do with her will not end up well!"

"It will only bring misfortune to people?"

Listening to Aokiji's words, Luke sneered and sneered: "Isn't it just the cowardly and incompetent World Government that is afraid of a mere eight-year-old girl who has been hunted and persecuted for more than ten years?"

"Justice will vary depending on the position..."

Aokiji's face remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "You can say so as you wish, I'm not here to catch up with you..."

"As the traitor who killed your boss and caused a scene in Enies Lobby, you are also a felon wanted by the World Government...!"

While saying this, his eyes gradually became sharp; he stared closely at Luke on the bow of the ship: "Although I don't like the way those CP guys act, and I don't want to wipe their butt... but Vice-Admiral can also be considered as comrade-in-arms since you are seeking your own death, you can't blame me!"

"I finally blocked you and let Nico Robin escape. If I don't deal with you, I will be scolded... Ice Time Capsule!"

The words have not yet finished.

The next moment, intense cold air swept out like lightning.

He was not prepared to give Luke any time to react.

The next moment, Luke was completely frozen and turned into a human-shaped ice sculpture.

Even the warship under his feet was completely covered in ice and turned into a huge ice sculpture.

However, the next moment, cracks appeared directly on the human-shaped ice sculpture.

A large amount of fragments of ice splashed away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Are you going to show off your power as soon as you come up?"

Luke, who was safe and sound, looked at Aokiji and chuckled: "It's really cold!"

"Ah la la, it seems I can't freeze you easily?" Aokiji raised his eyebrows, not too surprised: "No wonder you easily kill that guy, Comil!"

A typical pirate with a bounty of over 100 million.

If they were frozen by him, they wouldn't even be able to resist, and they would have to turn into an ice sculpture.

But Luke was able to break free easily.

He has to say that it is really shocking that someone at such an age has such strength!

"It would be really dangerous if a guy like you is left alone…"

He raised his right hand slightly.

Half of the body is covered with frost, and his eyes turn cold, revealing a murderous intent: "So, you'd better go die!"

"That's not possible..." Luke looked relaxed and said with a smile: "I haven't lived enough yet!"

The next moment.

He stepped hard and disappeared in an instant.

Then he appeared in front of Aokiji.

"Flying Finger Pistol: Gatling Gun!"

His index finger, wrapped around by Armament Haki, turned into an afterimage all over the sky without mercy.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

In an instant, ice shards flew.

Aokiji's whole body was dug into a hornet's nest.

The body that turned into ice was densely packed with finger holes.

"Elementalize in advance?" Luke's eyes narrowed, and he stepped back swiftly.

As expected, Aokiji's whole body exploded.

"Wuhuhu..." The surging cold air swept over.

But Luke managed to avoid it.

"Kaka..." The human-shaped ice sculpture condensed out at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But Aokiji's body shape has not yet fully manifested.

Luke had already taken action without hesitation.

"Tempest Kick!" His right foot swept out like lightning.

An astonishing wind blade carrying Armament Haki blasted out boldly.

"Ice wall!"

But the next moment, an extremely thick wall of ice lay across between them and firmly blocked Luke's attack.

"Boom..." 

Ice fragments flew everywhere.

On the huge ice wall, shocking marks were left on the wall.

But it was not cut apart after all.

At this time, a cyan figure shot out.

His hands released an astonishing freezing cold wave, which turned into several icicles and flooded towards Luke, who had just landed, at an extremely fast speed.

"Flexible Snake!"

Luke's eyes narrowed.

Both fists were clenched and punched out.

Although he doesn't want to expose the Shadow-Shadow Fruit ability too early.

But it's still possible to pretend to be a Gum-Gum Fruit user.

"Huh...huh..." A loud roar broke through the air…

In Aokiji's fierce gaze, the two fists wrapped around by Armament Haki continued to expand, contract, and accelerate.

It turned into an afterimage and blasted forward.

It destroys the incoming icicles, directly blowing them away.

"What!?"

The piercing sound continued to break through the air.

The dense fist afterimage continued to stretch, and their power continued unabated.

It continuously bombarded Aokiji from the air, who was a little caught off guard.

It's Marine Admiral, after all.

In the flash, Aokiji reacted immediately and showed no signs of weakness at all.

Relying on Observation Haki's prediction, his fists wrapped around Armament Haki also continued to swing out, blocking Luke's fierce offensive.

He fully demonstrated his powerful strength as Admiral.

It's not just about his devil fruit ability that's powerful.

"Boom!"

"Bang!"

The two of them were punching each other flesh and the thick ice beneath their feet was cracked by the shock.

The fierce wind swept away countless pieces of ice.

"Click..."

A footstep caused the ice to crack.

Luke withdrew his fist and looked at Aokiji with awe-inspiring eyes.

He felt his fists were burning and trembling slightly.

For a moment, he took a breath of cold air and couldn't help but secretly wonder: "Is Admiral's Armament Haki this strong? It's really hard!"

These past few months.

His Armament Haki can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.

Especially with the training experience of powerful men such as Ryuma and Captain John in Armament Haki, it has reached a higher level.

But compared to Admiral, which has monster-like strength and basically has no major shortcomings in terms of Devil Fruit ability or Haki, it is obviously still some distance away.

With the ability to freely expand and contract, it can continuously accumulate power and increase the range of attacks.

Neither of them could overwhelm the opponent in terms of strength.

Little did Luke know.

Someone was more shocked than him.

"This guy..." Aokiji felt shocked.

Although his Armament Haki was better than Luke's, it failed to crush the opponent directly.

However, few people know that he also has another identity, that is, he is Garp's direct disciple.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, he relies more on the ability of Ice-Ice Fruit fruits.

But in fact, Aokiji has never fallen behind in Armament Haki's practice.

And Luke was actually able to face him head-on.

This really shocked him.

What kind of monster is this?

If he remembers correctly... he's only seventeen, right?

Is this the strongest genius of CP9 in the past 800 years?
