Oden finally looked at the opponent in front of him and asked with a solemn expression, "Marine, what's your name?"
Carl responded calmly, "Marine School student, Carl."
Hearing this, the surrounding pirates looked horrified. A person with such strength was actually just a student in the Marine! Are you kidding me? If all the new Marine recruits are like him, how can they survive on the sea in the future?
However, before they could recover from the shock, several warships appeared on the sea not far away. Several transparent bear paws sped over at a speed invisible to the naked eye and instantly appeared on the deck behind Carl. Six large bear-paw-shaped pits appeared, indicating that Kuma had arrived.
As for Zephyr, he had been transported aboard the Moby-Dick by Kuma.
Akainu glanced around, and when he saw the Marine soldiers lying on the ground, hot lava instantly emerged from his body, and the temperature on the entire deck suddenly rose.
Seeing this scene, Oden's pupils shrank, and he said in shock,
"Magma!? No! He's Logia! Get out of here!"
However, it was too late. Akainu didn't say much. His arms had already transformed into elements and blasted directly at the surrounding pirates. With just one encounter, a large number of pirates were turned to ashes by the hot magma, and many unlucky ones were blasted out of the warship by the powerful explosive force of the magma, falling into the sea like dumplings.
Seeing this scene, the morale of the remaining Marines on the deck immediately increased, and they shouted to kill the pirates who were rushing to the opposite side.
The Whitebeard Pirates are not ordinary pirates, and they quickly adjusted their position. Oden was the first to rush forward, aiming directly at Carl and Akainu.
Carl looked calm and exuded an inexplicable pressure. He said in a deep voice, "This guy is not easy to deal with. Borsalino, Sakazuki, you two come with me. The others disperse to deal with the remaining cadres."
The other six heard the words without any hesitation and all started to act as Carl said. Lucia spread her black wings, and her whole body turned into a black stream of light and rushed towards Nekomamushi and Inuarashi, with Gion following closely behind.
Ginny found a young pirate who also used a gun and wore a pink kimono.
Kuma dodged and his huge body blocked Marco and Jozu.
Oden had no time to care about anything else. He had already formed a cross with his swords and said in a deep voice, "Two-sword style!"
This was his unique skill, showing that he attached great importance to Carl.
Kizaru, who had always been carefree, was extremely serious at this moment. Seeing the dead Marine soldiers around him, his heart was not as peaceful as he appeared.
He used his ability to condense the Sword and stood side by side with Carl and Akainu.
Seeing the lightsword in Kizaru's hand, Oden's mind froze slightly. He couldn't help but think of the scene when Carl used his ability just now.
"Three Logia?!"
Thinking of this, Oden gritted his teeth and desperately injected Haki into the two swords in his hands. He was not stupid. If these three were allowed to grow, the future life of the Whitebeard Pirates would be truly difficult. So he made up his mind to eliminate the three Marine newcomers in front of him today.
Buzz!
A cross-shaped Slash Wave shot out, and Carl stepped forward, Conqueror's Haki surrounding him.
"King's Sword!"
Carl held Muramasa and chopped at the Slash Wave. However, this was Oden's full-force attack. It was not easy to withstand Oden's full attack.
Fortunately, he was not alone. Golden light flashed as Kizaru appeared beside Carl. The two of them worked together to scatter the sword wave.
Oden's wave was not just a simple sword attack, as Oden followed up by wielding a pair of swords.
Akainu narrowed his eyes, and his whole body turned into a pool of raging lava. When Oden appeared above the magma, Akainu's figure suddenly surged out of it. His magma-formed left hand was highly concentrated, burning with red flames, and he punched Oden's chest!
Even Oden didn't dare to resist the magma's attack with his weapons. He had to put away his attack and protect his chest with his two swords, but the impact, like a volcanic eruption, still knocked him away.
Carl seized the opportunity and pressed the darkness on the ground with his left hand. As soon as Oden landed, the ground under his feet suddenly turned dark. Carl's voice sounded,
"Dark Wave!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strong suction force erupted from the darkened ground. Oden struggled to resist but was still pulled into the darkness below his knees. Soon, Oden felt that his limbs submerged in the darkness were being torn apart by a violent force. He quickly activated his weapons to defend himself while trying to use his strength to break away from the shackles of darkness.
Of course, Carl would not miss this opportunity. His entire left arm had turned dark, and the power of darkness became more and more violent. Oden felt as if his two calves were about to be torn apart, and he couldn't help but let out a groan of pain.
At this moment, Carl shouted lowly, "Hidden Waterfall Burial!"
The power of darkness completely exploded. Oden's eyes widened suddenly, and he screamed in pain. Under the intense stimulation, he finally broke free from the darkness and fell heavily to a ground that was not affected by the darkness.
There was no way. To deal with an extremely powerful enemy like Oden, Carl could not let the power of darkness be too dispersed. Otherwise, with his ability, it would be easy for darkness to cover the entire deck.
Elsewhere, Nekomamushi and Inuarashi's expressions changed drastically when they heard Oden's screams. They ignored Lucia and Gion, who were attacking, and after enduring a wave of damage, they rushed towards Oden.
When the two of them saw Oden, they immediately became enraged and shouted, "Lord Oden!!"
Oden's face was pale, and he was leaning on two swords to support his body. His right leg had disappeared from the knee down, and blood sprayed on the ground along his trouser legs. He looked extremely miserable.
Nekomamushi and Inuarashi rushed to Oden's side like madmen, each supporting him on one side. The grumpy Nekomamushi roared,
"Who!? Who hurt Lord Oden like this!?"
Oden endured the severe pain and said feebly,
"I'm too impulsive. This element...is it darkness?"
He broke away from the two and stood with only one leg left, trying to stabilize his body as he said through gritted teeth,
"We must not let these three go. Kill them!"
Needless to say, Nekomamushi and Inuarashi, who were extremely loyal to him, were already furious. Nekomamushi was about to take action immediately, but Inuarashi, who was relatively calm, suddenly held him down and said, "Wait a minute! Look at the sky!"
Nekomamushi was stunned for a moment, then looked at the sky. When he saw the full moon, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face.
"Today is the night of the full moon! Hahaha! You are dead!"
