"Hey, listen to me carefully!"

Kizaru sighed and told the officers around him:

"I will immediately return to the navy headquarters, and we will hide the news of losing my arm!"

"Yes!"

They immediately replied to their Vice-Admiral's order. They were aware of what this news would cause if it went to the public.

Meanwhile, Akira, who had already teleported to Karakuri Island, has collapsed on the ground weakly, panting heavily.

"I almost died there!"

After spitting out blood several times, Akira gradually calmed down.

"But it was worth it. At least I sealed Kizaru's arm with the Totsuka Sword ."

Recalling the scene of cutting Kizaru's right arm, Akira bitterly laughed, saying.

"Ahem!"

However, the laughter affected the injury in his body, causing him to take a deep breath.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Even if his fight with Kizaru did not take so long, the intensity of the battle was too high, so the pressure on his body was enormous.

"I am physically exhausted. I am worn down and out. Moreover, by excessively using the Sharingan many times, I can barely open my eyes now. My eyelids are too heavy!"

"I must recover from my physical injuries as soon as possible; otherwise, it will definitely have a great impact on my combat power in the future."

Akira finally backed to his senses and gathered his last remaining energy to fold his hands together, preparing to enter the Sage-Mode.

During his fight against Kizaru, after switching to the Uchiha Itachi template, although the stored natural energy brought by the Sage-Mode remained, the imaginary organ that was responsible for absorbing and storing the unique natural energy from the surrounding had disappeared.

Therefore, He was able to use the Perfect Susanoo longer, thanks to the remaining natural energy that was leftover from the Sage-Mode.

"It's time to move carefully. After completing the third primary task quickly, as long as I can merge the templates of Minato and Itachi into one, I will fear no one in this world." Akira was drenched in his thoughts.

"But before that, I have to build my own pirate ship."

"It seems I have to be going to the Water 7 city first."

As his eyes flickered, Akira focused more on meditating, and the natural energy around him slowly began to pour into his body.

He closed his eyes, and after a short while, he had entered the Sage-Mode entirely.

Using the imaginary natural energy-storing organ, he began to heal his injuries.

...

After the return of Borsalino Kizaru, the navy headquarters became quite a mess.

Inside the Marineford, a large number of admirals were in chaos, sweating out of stress.

In the Fleet-Admiral office, Sengoku was holding his forehead, and his face filled with despair.

"The Vice-Admiral Borsalino has lost an arm!"

"He is one of the strongest Vice-Admirals!"

"Purupuru!"

Just then, the Den Den Mushi rang.

"Fleet-Amiral! Come to The Holy Land Mary Geoise!"

Answering the Den Den Mushi, the voice of the World Government Commander-in-Chief, Kong, came from the other side.

Although Kong's tone was peaceful, Sengoku still felt a stern rebuke waiting for him.

"Understood, I will be there as soon as possible," Sengoku replied softly.

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, he looked at everyone in the office in front of him and sighed helplessly.

There was Garp, Tsuru, Aokiji, Akainu, and Borsalino, who was wrapped in bandages in front of him.

"Borsalino, I have always heard that you and Zephyr are not getting along. I never imagined that you would lose an arm like him, hahaha!"

Regardless of the heavy atmosphere in the office, Garp laughed loudly with a wide-open mouth, provoking Kizaru.

"Garp!"

Sengoku looked at the depressed Kizaru and shouted: "Garp! Borsalino has lost his arm in the line of duty. How can you laugh at him like this?! You don't know how the seriousness of this situation?!"

Garp laughed and said, "Don't worry, Borsalino's arm is sealed. Just find the kid and unlock the seal."

"Um?"

Vice-Amiral Tsuru looked at Garp with interest.

"What's the meaning of this?!"

Sengoku quickly asked.

Everyone in the office also looked at Garp.

Garp took out a plate of donuts from behind, stuffed a piece of donut into his mouth, muttering:

"In the past, the Rocks Pirates also had a devil fruit user who possessed similar abilities. When Roger was fighting with them in the God Valley, he was hit by this ability, and both of his legs disappeared. Roger's wound was exactly the same as that of Borsalino's now. I was terrified at the time."

"The Rocks Pirates!"

Hearing Garp mentioning the name of the pirate group, everyone in the meeting room suddenly looked very serious.

However, Garp carelessly picked up Sengoku's cup and took a sip, looking at Sengoku, and continued:

"But after that guy was knocked unconscious, the ability was removed, and Roger's legs recovered."

Vice-Admiral Tsuru asked at this moment:

"Do you know the name of that devil fruit?"

Garp shook his head and said:

"I don't know. The ability that the man showed at that time is completely different from what Borsalino has faced."

"Is that so?"

Vice-Admiral Tsuru frowned, not knowing what are they facing.
