Vongola Primo in One Piece - Chapter 361
“As a Marine who’s supposed to uphold justice, you would stoop this low?”
In that instant, Ugetsu Asari got between Akainu and Knuckle. His Four Irregular Swords were already imbued with intense Rain Flames in his hands, and he dished out a powerful flying slash wave as if to cleave the sky and earth in two. The Tranquility characteristic of Rain Flame stopped Akainu’s Nether Dog mid-air. However, the flying slash wave was directly aimed at Akainu.
Ugetsu Asari also imbued this attack with Color of Arms Haki was also infused. Akainu was nowhere near capable of blocking this attack on his own, especially since he had just used Nether Dog and couldn’t react fast enough mid-air.
However, at that very moment, Kizaru transformed into light particle and travelled in the speed of light to reach Akainu in time. Although he felt that Akainu’s underhanded attack was despicable, he couldn’t stand just stand by and watch a fellow Admiral being struck down.
Kizaru then pointed his finger towards the flying slash wave unleashed by Ugetsu Asari and fired a laser to intercept it. Although he couldn’t completely block Ugetsu Asari’s flying slash wave, he could at least ensure that Akainu wasn’t fatally injured or killed. Losing an Admiral would be too heavy for the Marines.
But just like how the Marines came to Akainu’s rescue, why wouldn’t Vongola Family have one?
Xanxus had already raised his pistol, and he fired the Flame of Wrath from it. The powerful Flame of Wrath that was imbued with Color of Arms Haki formed a black and orange rotating beam of light that intercepted Kizaru’s attack halfway.
At the same time, Alaudi used Vongola Box Weapon to create a clone of himself once again, keeping Sengoku and Aokiji in check. He then said colcly, “Not only did you violate our agreement, but he even resorted to such an underhanded attack. No matter who he is, he must pay the price!”
“You stupid brat, did I ever teach you to do something that despicable?”
Even though he yelled at Akainu, Zephyr couldn’t just stand by and watch his former student being targeted like this. He rose from the ground with astonishing speed and rushed toward Akainu. He was also an Admiral-level combatant, and although he might not be able to defeat Vongola Family’s Guardians, he could certainly help shield Akainu from this attack.
However, when he was about ten meters away from Akainu, a lazy voice came from behind him, “It’s not a good habit to be distracted when I’m around, purple-haired old man. Boss is really pissed right now, so I’m sorry but I have to do something unpleasant to you! Relive the most painful moments of your life!”
Fran had already used his Mist Flame, and his illusions were no less potent than Demon Spade’s. As one of the best illusionist, he could trap his opponent in a terrifying and dreadful illusion world.
Zephyr had always maintained his concentration until now, preventing Fran from using his illusions effectively. But this moment gave Fran the perfect opportunity to invade his innermost thoughts. Zephyr probably wouldn’t underestimate the Frog-Head anymore in the future.
“I’d stop there if I were you. Your Admiral went too far just now, and I can’t tolerate such behavior. Although you guys are pretty strong, you sure underestimate me if you really think you can get past me to rescue your Admiral!” Red Hair Shanks immediately stopped Onigumo and Momonga in their tracks with his overwhelming Color of Supreme King Haki sweeping. He held his sword Gryphon and imbued it with Color of Arms Haki, ready to use the move he learned from Roger.
Although Onigumo and Momonga were almost at Admiral-level, Shanks was an Admiral-level powerhouse.
Even if the other Vice Admirals stepped in, they wouldn’t stand a chance.
In that split second, each Varia and Red Hair Pirates’ officers had kept the Vice Admirals in check. Anyone who dared to move in this situation would be subject to a barrage of attacks from them.
As for the Seven Warlords of the Sea…
They could’ve cared less about Akainu. Moreover, Hawkeye had already lost, so even if they saved Akainu, it wouldn’t change the fact that Vongola Family had the upper hand. There was nothing in it for them, and helping the Marines would only get themselves into trouble. That wasn’t something pirates like Crocodile and Doflamingo would do.
Hancock and Kuma in fact, were hoping that Akainu would die at Ugetsu Asari’s hand. If the Marine got weakened, they would be overjoyed!
“Bam!”
At this moment, there was no one who could help Akainu. Following the loud sound, Ugetsu Asari’s flying slash wave hit Akainu! His magma body couldn’t withstand such a powerful attack, and as it contained the Rain Flame, Akainu lost control over his body.
His chest was torn open by the sword energy, revealing a gaping wound from which blood gushed out. His breathing instantly weakened after that.
But that wasn’t all. Ugetsu Asari had no intention of sparing him. He lifted Enma again and said coldly, “You don’t even deserve to hear the Requiem of Soul. Let the rain cleanse your blood and impertinence; that’s more than good enough for someone like you.”
“Wait, if you kill an Admiral, the Marines and Vongola Family will be at each other’s throats. Have you thought this through?” Realizing that he couldn’t get past Alaudi, Sengoku could only shout, hoping that his words might persuade Ugetsu Asari to spare Akainu.
However…
Since when was Vongola Family afraid of fighting the Marines? They might not intend to provoke the Marines, but if they did, they wouldn’t cower in fear.
“Are you saying that the life of your Admiral worth more than the life of Vongola Family Guardian? I’ve decided to kill that man, and not even God can stop me!” Ugetsu Asari was infuriated. He had no intention of sparing a person who had attacked his comrades, “Nine-Headed Dragon Avalanche!”
