Near Beehive Island, on the frozen sea...
Aquarius holds a sword in his right hand and a seastone weapon in his left. The cloak on his body flaps as he looks at Akainu calmly.
Click.
He twisted his neck.
A trace of blood left the corner of Akainu's mouth, his eyes were very calm. He looked at Aquarius intensely, then shifted his gaze down, locking onto the seastone weapon in her hand. His eyes slightly narrowed.
Aokiji, on the other side, put down his blocking hands.
"Hah..."
He exhaled a long breath of cold air, and white mist rose from his body.
Aokiji looked sharply at the fingerless glove on Pisces's hand.
"That glove should be a seastone weapon! It's fast, powerful, and definitely used by a strong person...but why use a seastone weapon?"
On the other side, Akainu's face was serious.
"The slash is very powerful, but it also didn't use Haki! Otherwise, the sword just now could have caused me more serious injuries! But they didn't use Haki and are also equipped with seastone weapons!"
Swish.
Swish.
Both Akainu and Aokiji looked up, locking onto the powerful enemy in front of them.
In unison, they said:
"Although they are powerful, they don't have the power of Haki!"
Just as Akainu and Aokiji were making their judgments, Rob on the shore had a smile on his face.
He raised his hands and applauded the two:
"Good analysis! Both of you can directly judged that they don't have Haki! As expected of Admirals - at least they have some brains! The two of you, not bad!"
"Although they are very powerful, they really don't have Haki's power - but if you underestimate them because of this, you will suffer a big loss!"
Sitting casually on a piece of ice in a leisurely manner, Rob looked at Akainu and Aokiji.
"I deliberately released the news of the attack on Beehive Island this time! There is only one purpose - to attract enemies of sufficient strength, so that they can get enough training and test their combat efficiency!"
"To be honest—although I don't take you guys seriously, I have to say that the strength of Admirals is indeed very suitable for testing their current strength!"
"You two work hard, as long as you can defeat the four of them, you will be able to face me!"
Hearing Rob's words...
Akainu and Aokiji froze for a moment before they could say anything more.
Swish! Swish!
Aries and Taurus, who were still standing beside Rob, flew directly into the air, and each used their seastone weapons to attack Akainu and Aokiji simultaneously at a very fast speed!
"Um?!!"
Both Akainu and Aokiji's faces changed as they launched their counterattacks.
However—
Just as they began to intercept Aries and Taurus, Aquarius and Pisces, who had already made their moves, followed closely behind and attacked them.
Quickly, the fierce confrontation and battle began on the two battlefields.
Aquarius and Aries vs. Akainu, Pisces and Taurus vs. Aokiji.
Even though the four Seraphs don't have the power of Haki, their seastone weapons make up for it, posing a huge threat to Akainu and Aokiji.
Coupled with Rob's Devil Fruit ability implanted in their blood factors, they have no emotion and no fear in fighting, calculating each move with precision.
Under such circumstances—
Akainu and Aokiji found themselves at a disadvantage after less than a minute of stalemate.
As they left the T1-type terminators to find Rob, they hoped to replicate their past victory on Jaya Island. Now stronger, they aimed for a righteous two-on-oneattack on Rob!
They wanted to test the gap between themselves and Rob today and prove they were no longer the weaklings who couldn't even make a move in front of him.
Especially Akainu—
He was killed by a single strike back then, but it did not leave a psychological shadow. On the contrary, he became more courageous, working hard to improve his strength over the years, just to be able to stand in front of Rob.
To tell Rob himself—
He has become stronger!
But now, in the face of Rob's four subordinates, the ones who wanted to fight two-on-one, are being attacked by two of Rob's subordinated. They weren't completely overwhelmed, but they were definitely struggling.
Time passed bit by bit.
Rob just watched the battle on the three battlefields.
The T1 Terminator Legion, along with Marine Vice Admirals, Rear Admirals, and a large number of Marine soldiers, were initially in a balanced state. However, as time went by, many Marine soldiers were defeated. With all the Terminators focusing on the high-ranking officers, the Terminators began to gain the upper hand.
Aquarius and Aries worked together to suppress Akainu, but achieving absolute victory seemed to require more time. Aokiji, on the other hand, was being suppressed more ruthlessly by Pisces and Taurus, but victory was still not imminent.
"Both of them have become stronger!" Rob observed calmly, but internally he was evaluating the situation.
"The current Akainu can already be considered at the 'apex' of the sea! This Admiral of Headquarters is indeed fully capable! Aokiji is slightly stronger than Akainu."
"It should be his inner confusion that restricts the speed of his strength improvement. It seems that many things I did before have had a significant impact on the justice in Aokiji's heart."
Rob touched his chin, a slight smile forming on his lips.
"Maybe, I can drag him into my camp in the future!"
"No—this possibility is quite large! After all, under the original trajectory, this guy can even join the Blackbeard Pirates, so it should be easier to join me!"
If the opportunity arose, Rob would try to win Aokiji over. Even if Aokiji wouldn't become a core member, his sea "apex" level combat power was valuable.
An hour passed.
In the battle between the Terminator Legion and the Marine fleet, the Terminators, after losing some of their own, took the lead and seemed on the verge of completing the battle.
Two hours passed.
The Terminator Legion completely resolved the battle. All Marine general-level officers were defeated and captured, and nearly half of the Marine soldiers surrendered. For these captured Marines, Rob had no intention of killing them; he just detained them.
"Leftover—" Rob looked at the two remaining battlefields.
"It's just Akainu and Aokiji!"
He glanced at the two fierce battlefields but didn't choose to intervene immediately.
"Give them another hour! The test of combat power is enough! A single Seraphim, without mastering the power of Haki, should only be able to barely match the Marine Headquarters Admiral!"
"But if two join forces, they can suppress the Admiral of Headquarters! If three are together, it probably won't be a problem to kill an Admiral of Headquarters!"
The Seraphims, devoid of emotions and fear, could fully cooperate with each other. Thus, with each additional Seraphim, the combined combat power and strength were exponentially greater.
Quickly, another hour passed.
Pat.
Rob stood up, his eyes calm.
"It's almost time!"
Swish.
With a movement of Rob's figure, he stepped onto the frozen sea, and with gentle steps, walked directly towards the two battlefields of Akainu and Aokiji that had never been separated.
As he approached the battlefield, Rob spoke directly to give his order:
"You four, step back! Next—let me accompany them through two tricks!"
Hearing Rob's words, the four Seraphims, bearing injuries of varying degrees and traces of battle, did not hesitate. They let go of Akainu and Aokiji, who they had been suppressing, and immediately chose to retreat.
With a few quick movements, they reached Rob's side.
"Master!"
Nodding, Rob said:
"You guys have done a great job—I already know your strength! Next, leave it to me."
Hearing this, the four Seraphims responded and stepped aside, watching Rob's back.
thud
thud
The sound of Rob's footsteps was clear and gentle, without the slightest sense of urgency, bringing immense pressure to Akainu and Aokiji, who stood together with injuries all over their bodies.
Blood flowed from their heads, noses, and mouths, and there were battle marks on their bodies. Aokiji and Akainu, both in similar condition, looked at Rob with utmost seriousness and caution.
Before Rob even made a move, both of their faces were covered in cold sweat, and their backs were cold. The two adversaries subconsciously moved closer together.
"Rob!"
Seeing Rob's approaching figure, Akainu lowered his head slightly, gritted his teeth, and called out his name. His body turned into magma, exuding a terrifying high temperature.
"Haa—"
Aokiji's body was releasing cold air, and even the air around him felt frozen. He also looked at Rob with serious eyes, not daring to relax at all.
Casually drawing his sword, Rob looked at Aokiji and Akainu and said:
"One strike! It's your chance to save your lives!"

"I will only use one attack!"
Rob looked calmly at Aokiji and Akainu, holding a cup of magic tea in his hand:
"As long as you can withstand my one sword strike and survive, I won't kill you! If you can't take it and die under my sword, you should have no complaints! That's it, get ready!"
His voice fell.
Shinto uttered a clear and pleasant sword chant, and Rob's Armament Haki, like a wave, directly wrapped around the body of Shinto, merging with the monstrous aura emanating from it, which was extremely dazzling!
An extremely terrifying edge and oppressive force directly shrouded Akainu and Aokiji, making them feel uneasy, like needles on their backs, subconsciously wanting to distance themselves from Rob!
However, both Akainu and Aokiji were very clear that when fighting Rob, keeping a distance was meaningless. It was even very likely that Rob would directly defeat them both the moment they retreated!
Retreat?
It was absolutely impossible to retreat.
Only move forward!
This was the only way to receive Rob's attack.
Without any words or eye contact, at almost the same time, Aokiji and Akainu, under the oppression of Rob's momentum, immediately made a direct move to seize the upper hand.
In an instant, using Shave, the figures of Akainu and Aokiji were directly in front of Rob. Billowing magma and an extremely cold air directly brought the temperature difference reaction of Rob Ultimate!
"Hoo-"
Watching the two of them not backing down, taking the initiative to attack him.
The corners of Rob's mouth turned upward;
"Seizing the opportunity? It's a very good idea! It's just that - such a thing as an opportunity is only useful among opponents of the same level! Between the two of you and me, there is a world of difference.
"The levels are different, and it will be useless to seize the opportunity!"
While speaking, Rob slightly raised the Shinto in his hand, already stepping into the posture of attacking.
And at this moment——
"Dark Hound!"
Akainu poured all his strength into the next move, not choosing the most powerful one, but the one with the fastest attack speed and equally impressive attack quality.
An arm directly turned into a magma dog's head, instantly bombarding Rob's head at an extremely terrifying speed.
At the same time——
The choices of Aokiji and Akainu were exactly the same; instead of using their strongest attacks, they used their fastest ones.
Terrible cold gathered on Aokiji's arms:
"Ice Time!"
The timing of their attacks was extremely ingenious. The cold air released by Aokiji was in front, and even though there was still some distance, the air in front of Rob had already started to freeze, trying to reach and freeze Rob's body.
Aokiji wanted to use this trick to block all of Rob's movements, creating the most suitable attack timing for Akainu, a Magma-Magma Fruit user with stronger attack power, so he could deal the greatest damage.
But what neither Aokiji nor Akainu expected was that all the cold energy released by Aokiji was easily blocked a meter away by the Armament Haki erupting from Rob's body!
After realizing this, Aokiji chose to attack indiscriminately without hesitation, no longer focusing his attack on Rob.
At the same time, Akainu also punched out his magma fist with all his strength without hesitation.
Seeing the two attack without hesitation, the corners of Rob's mouth turned upward;
"Phantomless Blade!"
The moment the voice fell.
Slowly but with real speed, the Shinto in Rob's hand slashed towards the air that had been frozen by Aokiji's cold in front of him.
This slash was unremarkable yet possessed unparalleled strength!
It was what Rob could execute after persistent practice, without any Devil Fruit abilities, just using Armament Haki and his pure sword skills!
At the moment of the slash, everything in front of Rob—the frozen air, the cold released by Aokiji, and the magma fist punched by Akainu—was all split open like a mirror.
The figures of Akainu and Aokiji froze in the air for a moment!
Both of them turned white-eyed, vomited blood, and flew out with the force of the slash, losing all consciousness while still in the air.
At the same time, a large amount of blood gushed out from their bodies, and the deep bone wounds showed that Akainu and Aokiji had entered a dying state of life at that moment!
Above the sky in the distance, the thick cloud layer was directly split open by a huge hole at this moment!
It looked like the sky itself was split by Rob!
After a while, all the actions came to an end.
Rob, who swung the sword, let out a long breath of foul air.
"It's been a long time since I've done anything! It looks like my body is rusty too! The power of this sword is not what I expected!"
While speaking, Rob tactfully turned Shinto in his hand, and after bringing out a cold light, he put the sword back into its sheath.
He glanced at the big pit on the ice in the distance, where Akainu and Aokiji lay dying and completely unconscious, then turned his head to look at the four Aquarius behind him.
"Take all the Marines who are alive! Then organize the troops and prepare to return to the Paradise archipelago!"
Hearing Rob's words, the four Aquarius people bowed and took orders:
"Yes, master!"
Quickly, the four seraphs acted, imprisoning all the Marine generals and soldiers, and then prepared the four heavenly warships and the Marine warships used to transport the captives.
An hour later, in the broken channel, the four heavenly warships dragged the navigable Marine warships gradually away from the ice-covered Hive Island and the sea near the Hive Island.
At the same time—
In the waters of the Paradise Islands, broken Marine warships, carrying a large number of injured Marines, were evacuating from the ten sea areas that had just caused them to suffer a crushing defeat!
On board a warship of the retreating Marines, Kizaru, wearing a striped suit and sunglasses with battle marks on his face and body, held a Den Den Mushi, waiting to report the situation to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.
"On the twelve outer islands of the Paradise Islands, there are extremely powerful sea and air firepower. They are not traditional artillery but various high-end firepower such as air cannons, flame runners, and electromagnetic guns!"
Kizaru had a lazy expression on his face as he spoke:
"On the twelve islands, except for four of them, the remaining eight islands all have very powerful auras! Although I took Vice Admiral Momousagi and Vice Admiral Chaton to charge up."
"But we were blocked by two women! Vice Admiral Momousagi and Vice Admiral Chaton were also blocked by a woman each! I think that there are twelve equally powerful foes here in the Paradise Islands!"
"Sorry, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I really tried my best! But there is still no way to break through the defense of the outer islands of the Paradise Islands, so I can only retreat with the troops!"
After hearing Kizaru's report, Fleet Admiral Sengoku's face darkened, and a solemn expression flashed in his eyes.
"Can it stop you, and can it stop Gion and Tokikake? From your point of view, those powerful women should be far beyond the level of Vice Admiral!"
He pondered for a while.
Kizaru, unusually serious, replied:
"No! Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I think their strength should be comparable to Admirals! It's just strange that such strong individuals have not mastered Haki."
"If they master Haki, they could match the combat power of our three Admirals at Naval Headquarters, and battles involving more than two of them at the same time would increase exponentially!"
"And they don't seem to have any emotions of fear or hesitation. They are completely like fighting machines, or even killing weapons, which makes their threat level rise even higher!"
Hearing Kizaru's words, Sengoku's face changed slightly, and he thought to himself:
"Fighting machines...killing weapons?"
"Could it be that... these are similar to the developments and research in the science department? If this is the case, then the power that Rob possesses is too terrifying!"
Quickly, Sengoku came back to his senses and said:
"I understand! Thank you for your efforts. Return as soon as possible, Borsalino."
After advising Kizaru, Sengoku hung up the call with a frown, troubled thoughts swirling in his mind.
If it is true that the "combat machines" and "killing weapons" that Kizaru mentioned can fight against one Admiral of Headquarters, and Rob has a total of twelve such combat forces under his command, it would be extremely terrifying.
Sengoku was vaguely worried.
He said gravely:
"If there are really twelve special combat forces, and eight remain in the Paradise Islands, then there are four more, and they should be with Rob on Beehive Island! Akainu and Aokiji should be fine, right?"
With this troubling thought, Sengoku picked up the den den mushi and dialed the number of the warship of Akainu and Aokiji directly.
After a while, the den den mushi connected.
Sengoku narrowed his eyes when the other side didn't speak first.
Especially after looking at the phone bug and seeing those flat, indifferent eyes reflecting the situation in real time, Sengoku's heart sank to the bottom of the sea.
