[The timeline for Ohara is a bit off, consider it my own headcanon—delayed by one year!
Early third year since Roger’s execution!] “Hahaha, Leo Flying Kick!” A wildly arrogant burst of laughter rang out in the sky.
Mina’s right leg, wreathed in golden-red flames, tore through the atmosphere like a burning meteor falling from the heavens, kicking straight down toward the Marine warships below.
Below, Ohara was already a sea of flames.
The Marine fleet executing the “Buster Call” was systematically conducting saturation shelling, slowly erasing this island, a symbol of knowledge and history, from the map.
Suddenly, the sky darkened, and everyone subconsciously looked up.
When they saw the “meteor” dragging a long tail of flames, falling with an aura that seemed to boil the sea and burn the heavens, a look of despair appeared on the faces of the vast majority of Marine soldiers.
Their bodies went limp uncontrollably, or they scrambled to find places to hide, throwing the entire formation into chaos.
“What are you panicking about!
All units, spread out!” Akainu, standing on the flagship’s deck, regained his composure instantly after the initial shock.
There was no fear on his rock-hard face, only the anger of seeing “Justice” forcibly interfered with.
“Meteor Volcano!” Akainu roared, his arms instantly turning into scorching magma.
Countless giant magma fists, over ten meters in diameter, shot into the sky like anti-aircraft fire, slamming head-on into Mina’s flying kick!
“Boom, boom, boom, boom—!!!” Deafening explosions merged into one in mid-air.
Countless magma fists were easily pierced like fragile eggs the moment they touched Mina’s kick, and the exploding magma formed brilliant fireworks in the sky.
Mina’s offensive was not hindered in the slightest, piercing through Akainu’s barrage with unstoppable force.
However, her target shifted at the last moment.
The massive sole of her foot grazed the flagship where Akainu was located and slammed into the sea behind it.
“Boom—!!!” The next second, a terrifying impact comparable to an asteroid collision made the entire sea boil.
Water sprays hundreds of meters high shot into the sky, forming a circular white wall of water.
The violent shockwave spread in all directions, and over a dozen Marine warships that were too close were instantly overturned and torn apart like fallen leaves swept by a gale.
On the island, the burning “Tree of Knowledge” let out a mournful cry amidst the aftermath of this impact and collapsed with a crash.
When the water mist gradually dissipated, a towering, gigantic figure appeared in the view of all the survivors.
Mina stood barefoot in knee-deep seawater, the eternal flame behind her back illuminating her exquisitely beautiful face as if she were a god or demon.
Not far away, Akainu recovered from his elemental state, a trace of crimson blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
He stared fixedly at Mina, the killing intent in his eyes like a ten-thousand-year ice cellar.
“Hahahaha!
Is this what you Marines call ‘Justice’?
Attacking defenseless civilians and declaring your justice through slaughter?
It really opens my eyes!” Mina’s mocking laughter rang out like a thunderclap in every Marine’s ears.
Looking at this colossal figure like a demon god before them, and feeling that suffocating pressure, many Marine soldiers showed confusion and hesitation on their faces.
However, their hands gripping their weapons did not let go, and they continued to repeat numbly, “For Justice…” “Shut up!” Akainu roared with a hideous expression, “This is absolute justice!
Any obstacle must be completely eradicated!
Root and branch!” “Tsk, tsk, tsk, that sounds so nice,” Mina said, full of disdain.
“It’s just a high-sounding excuse for your own slaughter.
In the end, aren’t you just a dog raised by the World Government?” Just as the atmosphere was tense, a shrill, eunuch-like voice rang out inappropriately.
“Kill her!
Kill this monster that hinders justice!
And those damned ignorant fools on the island!
Not a single person who came here can be allowed to escape!” A guy wearing a mask, with a thin build and a standard villainous face, jumped out from a surviving CP9 ship.
He was the person in charge of this Buster Call, Spandine.
He pointed at Mina, then at the survivors on the island, issuing orders with a tough attitude.
That ugly face made Mina feel nauseated.
“Open fire quickly!
Blow her to pieces for me!” Under Spandine’s order, the cannons on the surrounding ships turned again and launched an attack on Mina.
Countless cannonballs fell on Mina, but only splashed up insignificant dust, failing to even leave a mark on her fair skin.
“Really…
so noisy.” Mina’s eyes turned completely cold.
She raised her right fist, clenched it, and swung it toward the direction where Spandine was.
“Galaxy Impact!” The next moment, a visible, violent shockwave of fist wind formed rapidly and rushed toward the area where Spandine was.
Wherever the shockwave passed, the air was torn apart, and the sea surface was plowed into a deep chasm.
The arrogance on Spandine’s face froze instantly, and the despair of death was reflected in his pupils.
The few CP0 agents behind him rushed forward to protect him, but it was to no avail; that destructive attack pierced through them easily and blasted out a large ten-meter crater.
Spandine and the CP agents beside him were all turned into primal fragments, not even a piece of wreckage left behind.
“Oh?
Refusing to help?
It seems you Marines aren’t very united internally.” Mina mocked Akainu again.
Just now, Akainu, who was not far away, clearly had the chance to save them; with his strength, it would have been very easy, but he chose to turn a blind eye.
This remark, which struck straight at the heart, completely ignited Akainu’s fury.
“Great Eruption!” Overwhelmed with shame and anger, Akainu stopped talking nonsense.
Half of his body turned into a towering magma, and he blasted out a terrifying giant magma fist over twenty meters wide, bringing with it the aura of burning everything to ashes as it roared toward Mina.
“You explode if you say one more word, don’t you!” Mina didn’t retreat but advanced, meeting the attack with a fist of her own, the flames behind her surging and covering her entire right arm.
“Fire Fist!” A larger flaming giant fist, a hundred meters wide, was blasted out with a roar.
“Boom—!” Fire and magma collided in mid-air, without the slightest suspense.
Akainu’s three-meter-tall body was instantly completely swallowed by Mina’s hundred-meter pillar of fire.
However, Mina’s Observation Haki could clearly perceive that inside that pillar of fire, Akainu was maintaining his elemental form, braving the terrifying high temperature, and rushing toward her.
“Don’t tell me you think elementalization is truly invincible.” Mina curled her lips, her right fist instantly covered with pitch-black Armament Haki.
She stomped hard on the sea, splashing up a massive spray, and her whole body shot into her own Fire Fist like a cannonball leaving the barrel.
The next second, the iron fist wrapped in Armament Haki accurately captured the high-speed moving figure in the magma.
A punch, blasted out!
“Pow—!!!” Terrifying mountain-crushing power erupted at the core of the fire pillar.
Akainu’s elementalized body was forced out of the magma, and like a kite with a broken string, he flew backward for thousands of meters, slamming hard onto the ruins of Ohara.
The huge impact left a giant crater a hundred meters deep on the ground, and the edges of the crater were instantly melted by the high temperature, turning into a pool of scorching magma.
“Vice Admiral Akainu!” The surviving Marines watched this scene, dumbfounded, and let out worried exclamations.
In the deep pit, magma surged, and soon, Akainu’s figure, with only half his body left, slowly rose from the magma, panting heavily.
He stared at the huge figure in the distance like he was facing a formidable enemy, his voice hoarse as he squeezed out a few words.
“Truly…
a monster, stronger than the average giant!” Just as Mina was about to open her mouth to mock him a few more times, a bone-chilling, extreme cold that seemed capable of freezing the soul struck from all directions without warning.
“Crackle…
crackle, crackle…” The teeth-aching sound of freezing spread rapidly through the area.
With Mina as the center, the sea surface for a hundred miles, along with the ruins of the island, were completely frozen by a layer of absurdly thick solid ice in this instant.
Mina’s movements froze in place, her huge body completely encased in ice, her face still maintaining that mocking expression she was about to speak with.
Amidst the biting cold air, a tall figure dressed in blue and black slowly emerged, emitting a cold killing intent that kept people at a distance.
It was the Marine Vice Admiral who had just awakened from his confusion not far away, Aokiji.
“Ice Age.”
