บท 146: Chapter 146
"Admiral!"
The shivering Marines saw their Admiral return and quickly ran over to check on him, only to see Akainu severely injured, causing them to be shocked.
Even the Fleet Admiral could be gravely wounded—did this mean the monster was stronger than the Admiral?!
With that thought, a sense of despair washed over all the Marines.
"What's with those expressions? What are you afraid of?! I'm not dead yet!"
Seeing the expressions of the Marines, Akainu angrily rebuked them, forcing himself to stand up before spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"That monster seems to be called Godzilla. Its beam attack is pretty terrifying."
Kizaru looked at Godzilla, who was currently walking out of Skull Island.
Upon seeing their natural enemy, Godzilla and the MUTOs immediately began fighting each other, which helped ease the pressure on the Navy's side.
"Oh my, those big birds have flown away. Who knows where they'll end up."
Kizaru looked at the sky; without his interference, the Rodans were flying off unimpeded. No one knew what they would do.
Meanwhile, the people on Sabaody Archipelago were terrified at the sudden appearance of the giant flying beasts, screaming and running for their lives.
"In any case, we must stop these monsters from escaping. We have to get serious now!"
Akainu glared at Godzilla in frustration. It had been a long time since he'd been beaten this badly, and he was determined to get back at them!
At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku and Garp both wore serious expressions upon seeing the two Admirals struggling.
"Even the two of them are having a hard time... It seems that Skull Island is a place that surpasses even the power of the Four Emperors."
Sengoku's expression grew even more solemn, never expecting the monsters on Skull Island to be so powerful.
"Looks like I'll have to go myself after all."
Garp sighed, feeling a headache coming on. He had assumed that these monsters were just scary in appearance and that two Admirals would be enough to handle them. Had he known how things would turn out, he would have gone in the first place.
"Burururu."
At that moment, the Den Den Mushi rang, and Sengoku immediately answered—it was Aokiji calling.
"This is Aokiji. Leave the rest to me."
At this point, Aokiji had already arrived near Skull Island with over twenty warships.
The Marines on board, even the Vice Admirals, were seeing Godzilla and these monsters for the first time. They were also confused by the sudden appearance of the island.
"Roar, roar, roar!!!"
Roars echoed from the island as more and more monsters emerged. Realizing they were in a strange new world, they intended to leave Skull Island to explore.
Skullcrawlers, Behemoths, MUTOs, Godzilla, Kong, Scylla—some of the most famous monsters in their world—appeared in numbers.
Seeing this, countless Marines were petrified—who had ever seen such a scene?
"Fire! We can't let these monsters get out!"
The Vice Admiral remained calm, ordering a bombardment to intimidate the monsters.
More than twenty warships fired upon Skull Island, attempting a Buster Call to eliminate the monsters.
However, they severely underestimated the toughness of the monsters' bodies. The shells were nothing but an itch to them and had no effect at all.
"You don't need to do anything—leave it to me!"
With that, Aokiji's voice rang out. In the next instant, he disappeared from his original position.
Aokiji appeared on the sea near Skull Island, his hands submerged in the water.
"Let me test the power of absolute zero!"
There was a hint of anticipation in Aokiji's voice. Since learning about absolute zero, he had been experimenting with his new power, which was far stronger than before. Now, with such formidable opponents, he intended to fully unleash it!
"Akainu, Kizaru! Give me a hand!"
Aokiji called out to them.
As colleagues, they didn't need many words to understand what needed to be done.
Kizaru and Akainu looked at each other and immediately jumped into the air.
"Meteor Volcano!"
"Yasakani no Magatama!"
Akainu and Kizaru launched their attacks with full force, pushing their Logia abilities to the limit. They also infused Armament Haki into their attacks, greatly increasing their destructive power.
However, their target wasn't the monsters on Skull Island—it was the surrounding sea.
With their relentless bombardment, the sea erupted into massive waves, akin to a natural disaster!
"Ice Age!"
At that moment, Aokiji made his move. The extreme temperature of absolute zero was unleashed!
In that instant, everything around Aokiji seemed to come to a standstill. Not only did the splashing water freeze into ice, but even the air and light were forming ice crystals.
This phenomenon spread rapidly, covering the sea around Skull Island. In just a short time, a massive ice wall had formed around the island.
Moreover, the ice wall continued to grow upwards, seemingly forming a cage.
"Roar, roar, roar!!!"
The monsters on Skull Island seemed to realize what was about to happen and began attacking.
Various rays and giant boulders were hurled at the ice, as the monsters tried everything to break it and escape.
But breaking the ice formed at absolute zero wasn't easy.
Any material that came into contact with it would freeze instantly.
The freezing effect even started to creep along the rays back towards the monsters.
"Roar, roar, roar!!!"
These monsters weren't stupid. Seeing their attacks fail, they stopped and watched in fury as the ice cage slowly took shape.
Now, only the flying monsters had any hope of escape.
More and more flying monsters began trying to get out before the cage was completed.
Rodans, Death Vultures, Wings of Icarus, and other flying monsters were attempting to break through the ice cage.
However, they underestimated the danger. As they approached the exit, their bodies began to be affected by the freezing air emanating from the surrounding ice.
They shivered uncontrollably, their movements becoming stiff and sluggish.
"I can't let you get out of here. It's already troublesome enough that a few of you escaped."
At that moment, Kizaru appeared, blocking the exit and unleashing Yasakani no Magatama, bombarding the monsters and preventing them from flying away.
Meanwhile, Aokiji continued to exert himself, speeding up the freezing process!
In just an instant, the ice prison surrounding Skull Island was completed, trapping the monsters inside for the foreseeable future.
"Huff, huff... The power of absolute zero is no joke."
Aokiji panted heavily. In the past, large-scale freezing wouldn't have exhausted him, but ever since upgrading his freezing ability to absolute zero, he sometimes found even he couldn't handle the extreme cold. Using it on such a large scale had taken a toll on him.
"I'll have to use it less in the future."
Aokiji said helplessly.
"Admiral Kuzan!"
"Admiral Kuzan!"
At that moment, the surrounding Marines couldn't help but cheer for Aokiji. The monsters they couldn't fight were dealt with by Aokiji alone, filling them with excitement and admiration.
Most importantly, the other two Admirals had been struggling, which instantly elevated Aokiji's reputation to unimaginable heights.
