029: Bai Ye: After all, it's just a bunch of hypocritical guys. Akainu shot!

...

Now.

This unknown desert island, destined to attract the attention of the world, is here.

"...Marine Admiral."

"The World Government is exclusively at the beck and call of Celestial Dragons' CP0 members..."

"Coupled with the number of warships exceeding thirty, is this still a Buster Call?"

Bai Ye stood on the deserted island and glanced over.

All of the Marine's terrifying lineups fell into view this time.

Facing the approaching warship, Akainu's expression sank on the deck of the warship not far away.

Behind him, there was a group of "special" troops in uniform World Government costumes wearing various masks.

A look of disdain appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly:

"It's really ironic, what should come and what shouldn't come have come."

Bai Ye's voice was not loud.

But in front of the silent desert island at the moment, it clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.

The ordinary Marines on the warship looked at such a terrifying lineup.

On the deserted island, the healthy and elderly figure showed no fear.

They couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

He was indeed a monster worthy of the Naval Headquarters' decision to employ "nearly all possible forces" to destroy.

Alone.

He was obviously the party that should be wiped out by the Marine's terrifying lineup.

But he seemed to be actively waiting for them to come!

Just that calmness.

If they faced this terrifying lineup sent by the Marines...

Let's say his face didn't change; just being able to stand still without incontinence was already a miracle!

"Humph!"

A cold hum sounded from the sea, breaking everyone's thoughts when the Marines came this time.

"As a Marine, facing such evil people, why are you still hesitating? Take action!"

The man with the antler mask saw Bai Ye standing on the deserted island, seemingly aboveboard, waiting for them to come.

In his astonishment, there was a hint of anger in his eyes under the mask.

Just an old guy by himself.

He was just a remnant of the old era that should have been eliminated by the new era long ago!

In this sphere of influence that had been controlled by the Marine government and the World Government for an unknown number of years...

The other party was acting like this.

What was the difference from not paying attention to those useless Marines and their CP0 special forces?

Then.

The man leading the CP0 force immediately issued an order to all Marine fleets.

For a while...

The Marine Admirals participated in the battle as the main force for this extermination operation.

The CP0 sent by the World Government had the highest command.

With the voice of the man with antlers, he issued...

Akainu and Kizaru's expressions changed slightly.

Immediately.

One after another, the warships began to turn their pitch-black muzzles, facing the deserted island ahead.

"Evil?"

Facing this scene...

The coldness in Bai Ye's eyes intensified.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Pitch-black cannonballs began to fly into the sky.

Under Bai Ye's gaze...

They, like raindrops, densely began to occupy the entire sky.

Thereafter...

The torrential rain of shells from the sky fell towards the deserted island!

"That's it! Anyone who dares to challenge the world will definitely die in the most miserable way!"

The man with the antler mask clasped his five fingers.

Finding that the shells were about to engulf Bai Ye on the deserted island, he couldn't help but shout.

However...

The man with the antler mask didn't notice the slight change in the expressions of Akainu and Kizaru.

They subconsciously looked up to the sky.

"This is...?"

The surrounding space seems to be distorted by some kind of force...?!

Akainu and Kizaru subconsciously looked at the man on the deserted island.

Only at that moment...

All the flying cannonballs seemed to be frozen in mid-air in the eyes of everyone's gradually widening eyes!

Reiatsu began to suffocate the air.

Though Bai Ye's eyes remained indifferent, the oppressive aura that emanated from him made it difficult to maintain eye contact.

The next second, Bai Ye raised his hand, clenching his five fingers into a fist.

Looking up, his sharp, cold eyes fixed on the warships at sea.

"Who defines evil?"

"Who is labeled as evil?"

Glaring at Akainu and Kizaru with stern faces on the warship, Bai Ye snorted coldly:

"In the end, what stands before me now is simply a group of extremely hypocritical men, nothing more!"

"One bone!"

As his words fell, Bai Ye swung his right fist at a speed invisible to the naked eye, a powerful combination of strength and speed.

Instantly, the air in front was torn apart, and the sonic boom followed the impact of his fist.

In the ensuing moment, most of the cannonballs falling like a rainstorm from the sky exploded.

Simultaneously, thick dust and smoke filled the air.

The few shells that were far from Bai Ye and unaffected by his Reiatsu flew back toward the direction of the Marine warship at sea.

"Are... are you kidding me?!"

The CP0 man with the antler mask froze, his pupils widening in shock.

Witnessing this small number, yet comparable to a Buster Call's barrage, sent a shock through his core.

If all those shells had landed in the dense Marine formation...

It was certain that the Marines who had arrived would lose considerable combat strength without even starting a true battle!

With his muscles tensing, the man with the antler mask gritted his teeth, prepared to act.

But at that moment, a figure in a beige suit stepped in with greater speed.

Kizaru stepped forward, his expression one of reluctant acceptance.

The 'strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons' had acted foolishly, and as a Marine Admiral, he couldn't just stand idly by.

Golden light particles appeared on Kizaru's arms.

He extended his hand upwards, pushing towards the heavens.

In rapid succession, light whooshed.

The Pacifista could only release a laser once, but Kizaru, as a Marine Admiral, was not so limited.

In one go, he exhibited the terrifying, exaggerated power of the Marines' top combat force.

He didn't handle the lasers one by one or even in dozens.

Instead, with a mere gesture, Kizaru unleashed hundreds of them, enveloping the mid-air space in front of the Marine fleet in a golden light.

He detonated all the shells pushed back by the wind pressure in advance.

Meanwhile, the man in the antler mask breathed a sigh of relief, awaiting a new order.

Standing behind Kizaru, Akainu's steely gaze swept over them.

Molten, high-temperature lava poured from his fists as black smoke billowed.

Akainu's voice was stern.

"Just watch the next battle. Since you're here to 'supervise' the Marines' strength, at least look the part!"

"...You!"

The noted change in the expression of the man in the antler mask was evident.

However, Akainu disregarded him entirely.

With powerful legs, he leaped up suddenly!

And thus, the real battle commenced.

He expected no interference from these people because, after all, from the beginning to the end,

When facing enemies with fire powers, as the possessor of the superior Devil Fruit that could restrain all fire elements, the owner of the Logia Lava Fruit,

This extermination operation had one clear objective in Akainu's mind:

Eliminate Bai Ye, the "evil man."

He alone was sufficient.

Akainu's face was grim as he bellowed angrily in mid-air, the hot lava already gathering in his fist:

"Great... volcanic fist!"
