Chapter 146 Sicily Island, Battle Ends
Sakazuki glanced at Aokiji, then fixed his gaze on the white energy beams that were constantly crashing down from the sky.
He snorted coldly, and the temperature around his body instantly rose, while his speed also increased rapidly. Soon, the left half of his body turned into scalding magma, radiating suffocating heat.
As the white energy beam drew ever closer, Sakazuki shouted, "Dog bites Crimson Lotus!"
In an instant, Sakazuki's left fist transformed into a giant magma dog head, hurtling towards the white energy pillar in the sky with a wave of heat.
Soon, the white energy beam and the magma dog head collided violently, producing a deafening roar. The continuous "boom" sound seemed to shatter the entire world.
Sakazuki looked at the white energy beam he had temporarily blocked, a smug expression on his face, as if everything was under his control.
However, just as he was feeling smug, a crisp breaking sound suddenly rang out.
Sakazuki was startled and quickly looked over, only to see that his magma fist had been shattered by the powerful force of the white energy beam, and he had not been able to withstand the opponent's sudden attack at all.
"I refuse to believe I can't shatter you!" Sakazuki roared, his right hand instantly transforming into a massive magma fist, which he slammed into the white energy pillar once more, shouting, "Great Fireball!"
When the enormous magma fist collided with the white energy beam again, an even louder roar was produced, as if the entire world was trembling under the impact of this force.
This time, the white energy beam in the sky was finally completely blocked by Sakazuki's all-out attack.
Sakazuki looked at the white energy beam that had been blocked, a smug smile appearing on his face, and chuckled in a low voice, "I thought you were so strong!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sakazuki, in order to demonstrate his power, actually increased the force of the collision between his magma fist and the white energy beam.
With a deafening roar, Sakazuki's magma fist exploded simultaneously with the white energy beam.
A powerful airflow instantly spread outwards, like a destructive storm, constantly pounding the ice surface.
As Sakazuki's magma fist shattered, it transformed into countless smaller magma fists, which rained down from the sky.
Under the powerful impact and the effects of the high-temperature magma, the ice surface had already been shattered into pieces, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
Aokiji, standing to the side, watched as several magma fists hurtled towards the warship from the sky and shook his head helplessly.
He knew that if he did not act quickly, the warship would suffer serious damage.
So he stepped forward and unleashed a powerful surge of icy energy. The icy energy, like a surging torrent of cold, instantly collided with the small magma fists.
In an instant, the little magma fist was frozen and shattered by Aokiji's icy power, disappearing without a trace.
Soon, thanks to Aokiji's efforts, the warship was successfully saved.
Sakazuki's face darkened considerably when he saw Aokiji using his ice powers to clear his magma fist.
He felt that Aokiji had stolen his thunder. (◣_◢)
Aokiji glanced at Sakazuki indifferently and said calmly, "We should go back and report the situation here to Fleet Admiral Sengoku."
After saying that, he ignored Sakazuki and walked straight towards the warship.
Sakazuki watched Aokiji's departing figure, snorted coldly, and walked towards the warship.
……
In the sky, the Black Dragon King Minos had been waiting for a long time, but the system's familiar notification sound had not yet sounded.
Its enormous dragon mouth roared wildly, the sound like rolling thunder, making the air buzz.
The black wings flapped forcefully, each flap bringing with it a howling wind.
In an instant, a biting wind swept through the sky, air currents surged, and pillars of air shot into the sky, as if to shatter the heavens into pieces.
As everything gradually calmed down, the howling winds ceased, and the column of air slowly dissipated, the Black Dragon King Minos finally calmed down his raging fury.
However, the heavy breaths exhaled from its enormous dragon mouth still carried lingering anger, like a volcano still warm after an eruption.
After a long silence, the Black Dragon King Minos spoke in a low, threatening tone: "Fine, consider this your good luck for now!"
Immediately following, the voice of the Black Dragon King Minos seemed to come from the deepest hell, filled with endless chill: "When I break through to the King level, all of you will be plunged into endless fear; it will be your nightmare!"
After saying this, the Black Dragon King Minos spread his enormous wings that blotted out the sky, flapped them in a randomly chosen direction, and his figure gradually disappeared into the horizon.
However, in a corner unnoticed by everyone, amidst the ruins of broken walls, a small newsbird was quietly taking in all of this.
It carefully hid in the shadows, its keen eyes not missing a single detail.
This news bird was none other than the renowned war correspondent, Yamashita Masaya.
There are reasons why he would give up his comfortable position as deputy director of a news agency to risk his life to film intelligence in this dangerous place.
It turns out that, for a long time, Yamashita Maya had been accustomed to chasing after the Black Dragon King Minos and recording its every move.
Even after he rose to the high position of vice president, living a stable and prestigious life, he always felt something was missing deep down.
That yearning for trending events and adventure was like an inextinguishable flame, always burning brightly in his heart.
After careful consideration, Yamashita Maya resolutely decided to continue pursuing Minos's trail while retaining his position as vice president of the news agency.
After all, for him, photographing Minos's various deeds was the most meaningful thing in his journalism career.
In fact, Yamashita Maya had already started filming when Minos transformed into the Black Dragon King and unleashed a bloodbath on the island of Sicily.
Thanks to the Newsbird's unique and mysterious talent, even powerful figures like Minos and the world-renowned Whitebeard failed to notice that this tiny bird was secretly observing everything. (The Newsbird's special ability is truly astonishing. (◣_◢))
Only after confirming that everyone had completely left the devastated area did Yamashita Maya slowly emerge from a pile of ruins buried in ice and snow.
Looking at the shattered, snow-covered island before him, he was filled with emotion and couldn't help but sigh softly, "This is absolutely insane!"
"Minos not only slaughtered everyone on the island, but also engaged in an extremely fierce battle with Whitebeard, who was known as the strongest man in the world."
He frowned slightly, his eyes thoughtful: "After this battle, perhaps the so-called strongest person in the world is now none other than Minos?"
"Furthermore, it is quite rare for the navy to get involved in such a major event."
He recalled the scene of the battle and muttered to himself, "Moreover, Aokiji of the Marine Headquarters is not to be underestimated; he actually managed to frustrate a strongman like Whitebeard."
"Forget about that for now." Yamashita Maya shook his head, pulling his thoughts back from the thrilling battle.
"Next, let's head to the news agency headquarters as soon as possible!" After saying this in a low voice, he transformed into the form of a news bird and slowly flew into the sky, gradually disappearing into the vast horizon.
Thus, the thrilling battle on the island of Sicily finally came to a complete end.
A sense of weariness and heaviness permeated the battlefield, as if telling the story of the fierce and brutal battle.
P.S.: I originally wanted to write this chapter about the outcome for Xiao Yu and the Red-Haired Pirates, but it ended up being this long just because I wrote it casually.
P.S.: I'll have to write that later. (◣_◢)
