Chapter 292: Diddy & Freyja Vs Admirals

Speedily flying through the air, I headed directly towards the incoming marines; throwing Naga-sa into the ocean, it promptly enlarged until it was sticking out of the ocean, allowing me to land on it as I stood before the two Admirals.

"Hehe, so Akainu sent you two? Aren't I lucky? I can have some fun with both of you." Remarked Diddy with a feral grin, his voice echoing through the area as he eyed Fujitora and Ryokugyu.

The two admirals didn't say anything and merely readied themselves to confront me, causing me to grin as my arms dangerously arced with lightning before I thrust them into the ocean, spreading the lightning through the ocean. As I manipulated the lightning to attack the numerous battleships, hundreds of massive lightning bolts emerged from the ocean and were about to bombard the numerous ships, yet before they could, they were all sliced in half.

"Too many casualties for my liking." Said Fujitora calmly as he sheathed his sword while facing Diddy, whose smile only grew.

"Heh, I hope you don't think that'll be enough to stop me; I just didn't want a bunch of weaklings interfering with our battle." Stated Diddy with a smile as his lightning intensified, causing hundreds if not thousands of arcs of lightning to emerge from the ocean.

As I attacked the numerous battleships, most were able to protect themselves since they had a Vice-admiral manning the battleship, yet those unlucky ones weren't able to withstand the damage my lightning inflicted, causing them to explode while slowly sinking into the ocean.

"Tch, I'm done waiting!" Said Ryokugyu in annoyance as he clicked his tongue before leaping off the ship, lunging towards Diddy, who simply grinned.

"Hehe, I hope you don't think I'm going to be easily defeated just because I'm injured!" Stated Diddy with a massive grin as he clenched his fist before punching the air, using one of his seventy-two Bian to create a cylinder of air that hit Ryokugyu.

"Not at all, but with two of us here, you'll lose your life." Remarked Fujitora as he slashed his sword at the incoming attack, cutting it in half, though it still forced him back.

Leaping into the air, I summoned Nimbus out from Naga-sa before rapidly enlarging it into a flat surface as it floated just above the water, causing both Fujitora and Ryokugyu to land on it while I rested my bo-staff on my shoulder.

"Hehe, lose my life? Just you two? If you want to kill me, Akainu should've come himself; that really would've made things fun." Remarked Diddy as he pushed off the fluffy ground, lunging towards the two Admirals while violently swinging Naga-sa.

"Hmph, you talk big for an injured pirate." Said Ryokugyu with a deep frown as he raised his hands and arms, morphing them into the roots of a tree as he blocked Diddy's attack, which caused the ocean behind him to split for multiple miles.

Kicking off Ryokugyu's body and dodging a slash from Fujitora, I kicked toward the two of them, launching a sharp blade of wind that prevented them from following up while I landed on the ground.

"And you talk big for a mere Admiral…" Said Diddy with a smirk as he licked his fangs while his haki surged aggressively toward the two Admirals, who could resist his haki with their combined might.

"…However, instead of talking, why don't we fight? As a pirate, violence, and strength is the only language I respect." Added Diddy with a ferocious grin as he suddenly slammed his lightning-coated fist into the air.

Creating a massive wall of lightning, preventing anyone from easily passing, forcing everyone to focus their sights on me, causing me to grin as I Ignored the massive disadvantage and lunged forth, getting shot at with cannon fire while the two Admirals did the same.

'Beastly Incursion!' Thought Diddy with a feral grin as he violently swung his bo-staff toward Fujitora and Ryokugyu.

"Captain should be fine, right? He was still very injured from his fight against Big Mom, not to mention it's only been like an hour since he has woken." Asked Trenza lightly with a slight frown as she stood beside Freyja, the two gazing toward Whole Cake Island while Pandemonium swam to safety.

I was about to respond to Trenza, but before I could, a large purple pillar extended into the sky, only for a meteor the size of a mountain to emerge from behind a thick layer of clouds; however, before it could hit its intended target, a faint bolt of lightning charged towards the meteor, causing it to suddenly crack before exploding into millions of tiny pieces.

"He'll be fine; he's probably enjoying himself right now anyway." Remarked Freyja lightly as she shrugged her shoulders before turning around and walking away.

"Eh, well, you're probably not wrong." Muttered Trenza softly as she gazed fixedly at Whole Cake Island, watching as massive sparks of lightning arced everywhere.

With Diddy holding off the marines, we were free to escape without any trouble whatsoever, and eventually, after thirty or so minutes, we reached the edge of Totto Land, which prompted Pandemonium to slow down. However, just when we thought we had finally escaped, the last one appeared as if he had been waiting for us.

"Well, well, it seems I wasn't too late." Said Kizaru lightly as his voice echoed through Pandemonium, stirring everyone into action.

Hearing that familiar voice, I instantly transformed into my Satan's soul and busted through the wall as I slashed down at Kizaru, yet he blocked such an attack with his arm before kicking me in the stomach, flinging right back into the wall I had emerged from.

'Urgh, that hurt.' Thought Freyja softly as she quickly stood back up and exited through the destroyed area, only to see Mael, Sebas, and Scar struggling to fight Kizaru.

"Oh, so strong, I suppose it's good you are all injured." Remarked Kizaru lightly as he kicked Mael, Scar, and Sebas away, causing them to crash into different parts of the fortress.

Seeing how easily Kizaru handled our strongest, I clicked my tongue in annoyance; if they weren't so injured, we had a good chance of resisting Kizaru; after all, none of the Apocalyptic Commanders were weak, but with the way they were right now, I was the only one who could realistically fight against him, and from that one attack alone, my chances of winning were low.

'Tsk, I can't just give up though.' Mused Freyja with a frown, her body surging with strength as she coated her wings in inky black flames before lunging toward Kizaru.

Slamming into Kizaru, forcing him to take a few steps back, I grabbed his clothes and lifted him into the air as I rapidly flapped my wings, flying far away from Pandemonium; with our current state, we weren't going to be able to deal with Kizaru, but just like what Diddy was doing, I could prevent him from chasing after them, though, I doubted I'd be able to escape.

"I'LL DEAL WITH KIZARU!" Yelled Freyja loudly as she glanced back at Pandemonium, only to grunt in pain when several beams of light scorched her back, yet she stayed firm.

I didn't hear what my crew mates had to say and simply flew further away as fast as I could while constantly dealing with beams hitting my back, a few even piercing through my wings; eventually, though, Kizaru must've gotten annoyed as he kneed me in the stomach, causing me to suddenly stop flying as I let go of him before kicking him in the face.

"Ouch, that hurt." Said Kizaru lightly as he rubbed his nose, wiping the blood away before glancing at Freyja.

"Heh, I'll show you a real good time, one that you'll never forget." Said Freyja with a smile, sounding seductive yet dangerous as she violently attacked Kizaru.

Kicking the air, flying through the sky, I spat out a clump of blood that had been stuck in my lungs, finally allowing me to breathe in pleasure as I no longer felt like I was constantly drowning.

"Heh, that was one fun fight; I wish I could've stayed longer." Said Diddy with a smirk as he glanced at a small piece of paper, which was tugging in a certain direction.

I had ended up fighting Fujitora and Ryokugyu for far longer than I originally intended, but that was fine; it was definitely worth it, though now I was even more injured than before, not to mention I suffered a pretty large gash on my back while escaping; neither of them were allowing me to leave so easily, I thought I was going to have to sacrifice an arm, but nope. That idiot Ryokugyu allowed me to fall into the water, which immensely helped me escape; after all, they couldn't follow after me once I reached a certain depth.

Right now, I'm heading towards Pandemonium, which should be close as I've already been flying for quite some time.

'Ah, there they are, finally.' Mused Diddy as he glanced at Pandemonium emerging from beyond the horizon.

Descending towards Pandemonium, I gently landed atop the roof and promptly stretched, only to faintly frown when I noticed the disappearance of someone.

"Hmm, where is Freyja?" Muttered Diddy with a slight frown as he used his haki to search for Freyja's presence, only to come up empty-handed.

Leaping off the roof, I landed on the floor below it and promptly entered the lounge, only to see all of my Commanders quietly sitting with their heads down.

"Why is everyone depressed? Did I miss something? Actually, you know what, tell me later. I'm tired; also, Grand, patch my wound." Remarked Diddy with a raised eyebrow as he looked at everyone before walking forward and laying down on the table, drifting to sleep mere moments later, causing Grand to sigh as he grabbed his first-aid kit.
