Bab 169: Kizaru’s trump card!
Having heard Ian's intention about killing the two elders Kizaru hurried to speak.
"I'm sorry! But I can't let you kill them on my watch!" Kizaru spoke up. His voice was quite serious in contrast to his usual laziness.
He had seen Ian's speed from earlier so he decided to be more careful and use his all from the start.
"Haha, such confidence! I'm afraid today you are going to go back disappointed for not achieving what you wanted! There is no way that they are going to leave here alive! And if you stand in my way… even if you would prove a valuable ally against the diávoloi… I would not show any mercy!" Ian laughed at first before issuing a fair warning towards him.
He was giving him a chance to leave. If he did so, he could still claim later that Ian had caught him by surprise or something like that to the remaining elders and Akainu… but if he stayed… Ian would not bother with him anymore.
By now the two elders had already healed from all of the injuries they sustained. They were mostly internal, but one of them had had his arms broken. Still, it was quite shocking for Kizaru to see them heal all of this.
The two elders had already been furious for being treated like small fries by Ian, and then they got their asses kicked… and now…
Hearing the two talking about them like they were small kids needing protection left a bad taste in their mouths… one of them could not help but remark.
"Such unparalleled arrogance! Never have I heard someone boast this much!" The sword-wielding elder shook his head as he talked.
With his fellow illusion master doing the same. If a third party were to see this they would think of them as right due to how wise their words and tone sounded.
"Arrogance? Boasting? Did I not just almost kill you with a simple strike of mine? Are you perhaps blind? I was not aware that when one becomes half a devil they would lose their sight! Well, I guess the saying the more you live the more you know is quite true!" Ian replied back sarcastically.
These two old men were entertaining, to say the least.
And his reply to them angered them to no ends. They shared a look and prepared to go all out right at this moment.
Kizaru stood guard in front of them. Ian's warning blaring in his mind. But at this moment he chose to ignore it.
Seeing this Ian resolved to teach them all a valuable lesson. To quit when you can, otherwise, it would be too late later.
He was going to show them what real strength is.
Although Kizaru was quite alert ever since he made his mind, he still couldn't see when Ian had made his move.
A sound caught his attention and he turned to see what was wrong when he suddenly saw the two elders were both caught in Ian's hands by their necks. Ian was floating and holding them effortlessly.
Then Ian smirked at Kizaru before he discharged electricity through his arms.
Ian had discharged the highest amount of voltage he was capable of while using his 'blue' lightning.
This was far from Ian's limit, but it was enough for these two.
As evidenced by the two elders screaming their lungs out.
"NO!" Kizaru yelled as he used his teleportation technique to near Ian.
He could not let him kill them.
And by his estimation, if the two elders' stayed in Ian's grasp for a few more seconds then they would really die.
Just as he neared Ian, the person himself released them to fall to the ground. Before he brought out his shield again and this time, he coated it in Haki and swung at Kizaru using the advanced form of Haki: Emission.
With this technique, Kizaru would have to dodge even further back as using emission would let one hurt even his opponent without even touching them.
And since Kizaru was using his light sword against Ian, who even two years ago was capable of going toe to toe with that devil that outclassed the marines, Kizaru chose to run.
But Ian wouldn't let him.
He followed after him, merely redirecting his strike towards the light human.
Kizaru started to panic.
But after a few seconds, he regained his calm.
Using his ability he started glowing for a bit before the glow exploded and managed to blind Ian for a bit.
This brought Kizaru a few seconds to run away backward and check on the two elders.
When he did, his face couldn't help but turn ugly.
If he didn't take them now and give them some medical help they would definitely die. One heart or two hearts won't matter… as both were damaged.
Thinking at a furious speed, Kizaru saw only one method left for him, to both save them, and potentially kill Ian.
This was something every admiral would have to have before they could accept the position.
A trump card that manages to deter the emperors of the sea.
Their devil fruit awakening.
In Kizaru's case… since his fruit is the light-light fruit… his speed in that state would enter into a whole new realm… although the time he could stay in that state would be very small…
By now Ian was moving towards him, his right hand rubbing his eyes.
"So sneaky!" Ian chuckled.
Kizaru didn't like how Ian was so confident… but the time was against him. And with one final resolute look at the two elders, he chose his course of action.
Suddenly the surrounding space around Ian and Kizaru started distorting as if a mere illusion. Yellow-colored energy started to surround them all.
Ian was still floating in the sky, but then all of a sudden his eyes glowed red before he started moving at a very fast speed. His future sight had triggered and what he saw didn't please him at all.
He used his scaly mode to surround himself in his armor and then further added his Haki!
He didn't stop though… no… using his telekinesis he layered barrier after barrier through his body and then circle after circle around him until he for the first time in a while started to feel tired mentally.
Only after doing this did he feel it was enough for what was coming next!
