Fujitora

High up in the sky, several thousand meters above, Eiji observed Dressrosa Island, which appeared round like a pie in his eyes.

"According to my calculations, the Straw Hat Pirates are still on Fish-Man Island or sailing toward Punk Hazard."

"I hope Doflamingo finds the Kanjo Kanjo no Mi before the Straw Hat Pirates arrive in Dressrosa."

Since Rayleigh trained him in Haki, he and Luffy could be considered senior brothers. Therefore, even though he knew Doflamingo's fate would be to lose to Luffy, Eiji did not intervene, even though he needed Doflamingo's help.

"If Doflamingo fails to find the Kanjo Kanjo no Mi before being defeated by Luffy, I'll have to find another underworld broker. Morgans? No, his location is not fixed, and even the World Government has trouble finding him."

"Try asking Shakky; she knows many people. Maybe she can recommend a broker as good as Doflamingo."

No longer dwelling on the matter, Eiji took one last look at Dressrosa Island before flying away.

With the Limitless Technique, he could teleport to any location he had previously visited. Technically, he could teleport to Amazon Lily in the blink of an eye.

The reason Eiji chose to fly back instead was purely to satisfy his curiosity. He had been in too much of a rush to reach Dressrosa before and didn't have time to enjoy the scenery of the islands he passed by.

His cousin did something similar, which is why Satoru traveled by car instead of teleporting with the Limitless Technique.

"Pirates who don't appear in the main story can die."

On his journey, Eiji spotted a pirate ship firing cannons toward a harbor on an island.

This is the nature of real pirates—they are cruel, evil, immoral, and many other negative stigmas are attached to them.

It's normal for civilians to hate and fear pirates. On the other hand, exploration-type pirates like Luffy and Roger are actual anomalies.

"Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue."

A blue light condensed at his fingertip, targeting the pirates below. Eiji fired Blue.

*SWOOSH*

Blue shot through the air and stopped twenty meters above the pirate ship. In the next moment, an incredibly powerful suction force swallowed everything.

The Green-Haired Pirates were too focused on attacking the island to notice the danger coming their way.

"What's happening?!?"

"Captain, help me!"

"AHHH—... NOOO!!!"

The crew tried to hold on to the ship's parts to avoid being pulled upward, but it was in vain. Even the ship couldn't withstand the terrifying pulling force, and its parts began to collapse and be sucked in.

"FUCK! What the hell is this!"

The Green-Haired Pirate Captain, who had a bounty of 200 million belly, was powerless as he watched his crew get swallowed by the blue sphere floating in the air. His fate was no different from theirs; he could only struggle for a little longer before he too was sucked in and swallowed by Blue.

"How boring."

After saying that, Eiji had no intention of showing himself as a savior to the confused islanders. He flew off without looking back.

His previous action wasn't out of pity; he was just bored. To him, the Green-Haired Pirates looked annoying, so he destroyed them.

That was all.

*KRAK-KABOOM!*

The weather changes in the New World were incredibly unpredictable. Suddenly, dark clouds appeared, and heavy rain began to pour. Not only that, but Eiji was struck by lightning because he was flying.

However, natural lightning couldn't penetrate Infinity; even raindrops stopped several meters away and didn't touch his body.

"The climate changes in the One Piece world are extreme. No wonder there's always a navigator on pirate ships. Without one, a ship would sink when faced with the forces of nature."

Aside from Devil Fruits and Haki, Eiji admired the weather changes. This couldn't be explained by 21st-century science.

*ZUUUUMM*

A purple light, like a pillar, suddenly enveloped him. Caught off guard, Eiji didn't have time to react. Then, his body was pulled by a gravitational force and fell into the sea below.

*SPLASH*

Emerging from the sea, his clothes remained dry, untouched by water, as Eiji's gaze focused on a Marine warship a few dozen meters away.

Standing atop a large cannon with three barrels was a middle-aged man dressed in all purple and wearing a white coat with "Admiral" written on the back.

Upon closer inspection, the middle-aged man was blind!

"So that's it. No wonder you managed to penetrate my Infinity. The one who attacked me was you, Admiral Fujitora."

With just a glance, Eiji recognized the other party's identity.

Fujitora's real name is Issho, and he's 54 years old. He was a new member of the Marines, joining in the massive recruitment after the Summit War.

After Akainu's duel with Aokiji, there was a vacancy in the Admiral position. The only one still in that position was Borsalino.

Kuzan decided to step down after losing the duel against Akainu. Meanwhile, Akainu was promoted to Fleet Admiral, replacing Sengoku.

Issho and Ryokugyu then quickly rose to become Admirals.

Back to the main topic.

Issho's success in penetrating Infinity was because Eiji didn't consider gravity a threat. It's important to note that the invisible barrier created by Infinity can be expanded to keep harmful substances away from the user or to defeat someone by increasing its output. Thus, with Eiji not considering gravity a threat, Infinity didn't respond to the incoming attack.

"This is our first meeting, Kamiki Eiji, or should I call you Chaosbringer?"

Behind Issho, Marine officers held rifles and aimed at Eiji.

"Previously, I thought the person in the air was Golden Lion Shiki, but it turns out I was wrong. As you can see, I'm blind, and I recognized the wrong person."

Issho's speech was very old-fashioned, giving the impression of someone out of touch with modern times.

"Let me warn you, your attack won't work on me again." Eiji stated the fact.

"Is that so? Then let me try it."

Issho joined the Marines to uphold justice. Of course, he would try to capture a bounty individual.

"Moko!"

Facing an opponent like Eiji, Issho didn't hold back and used his full power.

"ROARRR—"

A giant purple tiger was formed by an immense level of gravitational force. The tiger then charged horizontally with a destructive aura.

"..."

Eiji just stood still, watching the incoming attack.

Under Issho's observation through Kenbunshoku Haki, his attack seemed to stop in front of the opponent.

"I already told you, your attack succeeded because I was caught off guard earlier. I won't make the same mistake twice."

After revising the threat object in his mind, Infinity slowed down the gravitational attack until it moved infinitely slowly.

Others might fear facing an Admiral, but not Eiji.
