Chapter 185

The magma and the fire clashed. Josh was feeling both amused and angry, seeing that Akainu was using his Epic rank Katana, which happened to be the first weapon that accompanied him. 

Furrowing his eyebrows, Josh's flames started pushing Akainu's back.  His wrath got stronger, and thus, his fire got hotter. 

Akainu's frown got deeper, and he extended his other hand, sending magma from it. 

The heat was rising higher and higher. There was Armament Haki covering the attacks, making them more damaging. The island started feeling like it was a living volcano, but neither of the two seemed to be bothered. 

*BOOM*! 

A great explosion occurred in the middle of the island, destroying everything on the scale of 100 meters. 

The pressure had been so great that it led to this. 

Akainu pressed his feet on the ground, sliding ten meters back. He raised his head as the cloud of smoke was cleared, revealing the demon who was flapping his wings. 

Akainu almost flinched when he noticed his magma on Josh's scales. Josh turned his head to look over his shoulder. A piece of magma was there. He lifted it with his free hand, and crushed it, using flame wrath. As he opened his palm, the magma turned into ashes. 

"Demons are creatures that are born in hell. Your magma makes me feel like I'm at home." Josh told Akainu with a lazy tone. 

Josh was just saying some myths related to Demons, as it can be used to justify his Ancient Demon powers. 

Attacking your enemy morals is very necessary if you want to win.

To Akainu, however, it sounded different. 

Taking advantage of the fact that Josh is talking, probably because of the alcohols, Akainu reached his pocket and pulled out something. Quickly, he threw in Josh's direction, sending it at a very high speed. 

Josh, subconsciously, held that object. He stared at it. It was a Sea stone Knife, the same one that Josh used to stab Akainu. 

"I knew it!" Akainu clenched his fists. "I've always wondered how could a Zoan user not be affected by Sea stone. Seeing that you are still in your form, it solved the mystery in my head." 

Josh raised his eyebrow. What the hell is he talking about. 

Akainu made direct eye contact with Josh's demonic red eyes. 

He pointed at Josh with his finger and said. 

"I've looked for you. You have no existence, and you just appeared a year ago on some island." Akainu said. "You have no history...

"You Are A Real Demon!" Akainu yelled.

Josh, unable to handle the sarcasm, and the alcohols, put his hands on his face and opened his mouth widely.  'Gasps in Spanish…'

 Seeing the expression that took over Josh's face, Akainu became certain. That's the body language, which Josh just showed, indicating the shock. 

Akainu, taking advantage of this rare precious situation, waved the sword. 

"Magma's storm!" 

The Katana created a tornado that surrounded Josh from every direction. What's more, the tornado was made of magma. Being in the centre was worse than being inside a furnace. 

Akainu believed that this secret attack can kill Whitebeard in the moment of heat. 

Akainu felt something off as another storm appeared from inside his storm. It was made of the same dark fog that Josh had used to attack early. The magma vanished into thin air, leaving only fire surrounding them, which came from the burning trees. 

"It's too early for the summer," Josh said, getting higher in the sky. "Let me show you what real attack is."

Josh ascended in the sky and pointed with his sword at the sun. 

Demonic energy, with different colours, surrounded the sword. 

What's more, a black aura surrounded his sword. 

Light, flames, and a cold breeze danced on the top of the sharp tip. 

'Let the Armament Haki flow and press the element from every direction. It will explode in three seconds. I have to let it get far from me…' 

Pressing Haki to create an explosion was a technique that josh used in Impel Down. However, he had never tried to use it to its strongest potentials. 

Josh's face was sweating as he could feel the attributes of the demonic energy getting pressed. He had never used the attributes at the same time. 

'Three…' 

Josh lowered his head to see that Akainu made both of his fists grow bigger, so big that it can swallow a building. 

Joining his hands together, Akainu sent the giant fists toward the demon. He believed that this attack can do it. 

'Two…' 

Josh held the grip with both hands, before chopping down.

A gigantic air blade flew down. It was pretty, with multi colours, and shiny. It was cold and hot at the same time, with Armament Haki surrounding it. 

The arc cut the magma in half, and it headed to Akainu, who took a step to the side, saving himself from the cut. 

"Is this your best?" Akainu mocked. 

"One…" Josh flapped his wing. 

Akainu. His Observation Haki suddenly warned him. 

*Boom*

The whole island cracked and started collapsing. 

A great explosion covered all of this place. Winds surged everywhere, and the explosion reached the sky. 

Strong winds surged in every direction, and the water in the sea was lifted.

Josh, depending on his speed, managed to dodge it, and he looked down. 

The island was gone, literally. What was a rich land was now all but a big hole with ashes all around. Moreover, there was a very large crack that cut the island in half. 

This attack is so strong. However, it was not based on strength. It was based on technique. Heat and Coldness are meant to create more pressure. The light was meant to make the attack fast. And Armament Haki was to press all of this into a very strong bomb, plus the swordsmanship. 

'I don't hear the notification.' 

Josh thought as he didn't get his rewards from the system. He slowly landed on his feet and spread his observation Haki. 

Josh looked over his shoulder. The island, which had just turned into a hole, started to slowly turn into a volcano. Lakes of magma appeared everywhere. The sky turned red as smoke started raising. Magma interrupted from the crack that split the island in half. 

This island turned into a volcano. The ground, the air, and the sky changed. 

"So, it's awakened…" 

Josh put his sword on his shoulder and smirked. "Let's see."
