Izan"s eyes turned cold as he gazed at Charloss, the man in white and Aokiji."Don"t you dare stare at me like that, I am a Celestial Dragon!" Charloss roared out as he grabbed his pistol as he aimed towards Izan and shot, which the bullet missed Izan by a long shot.
Both Aokiji and the man in white felt a pressure coming from Izan, for once in their lives, they felt that a Celestial Dragon and threatened the wrong person.
"Wait... isn"t that the Heavenly Pirates? Seems like even Devil Child Robin has joined them." Aokiji spoke and afterwards chuckled, yet he was carefully staring at Izan who was staring right back at him without any fear.
"You, a mere trash, dare to say that you"ll take my women? You are not even worthy to peek a glance of them, you degenerated b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Izan"s voice as ice-cold as it sent shivers through everyone"s spines.
Even when Izan"s voice was cold, Hanc.o.c.k was surprised with joy as she heard and saw Izan standing up against a Celestial Dragon without any fear. Hanc.o.c.k felt her heart starting to beat faster while Izan was starting to become more beautiful in her eyes.
Before anyone could react, a tremendous pressure gushed out of Izan. The pressure alone made most marines unconscious while only the stronger ones being conscious.
"Conqueror"s Haki!" Aokiji, the man in white and Hanc.o.c.k whispered it as they stared at Izan. Aokiji and the man in white felt threatened whereas Hanc.o.c.k felt her heart beating faster.
Izan slowly walked on the deck, he stepped slightly higher, but his feet didn"t drop towards the deck, it dropped on the air. Izan walked higher and higher in the air as he walked towards the World Government ship as he coldly gazed at Charloss, Aokiji and the man in white.
No one was able to speak, it was even hard to breathe under Izan"s pressure which was infested with Conqueror"s Haki.
Jiutian let out a bright smile as she saw Izan awakening his Conqueror"s Haki and a part of the Nature Law, or to be more specific, Gravity Law. Still, Jiutian was able to see that Izan was only able to use a small amount of Gravity Law.
It didn"t take ten seconds before Izan stood above their ship. Izan raised his right hand and flickered it downwards as words came out of his mouth in a cold tone "Kneel!" Izan"s voice was cold and deep.
As Izan said that, the world seemed to obey Izan"s command, every single marine who was still conscious fell to their knees. Even the man in white knelt down as he couldn"t muster any strength to raise his head.
Charloss was a lost cause as when he dropped down to his knees, they shattered into pieces, yet he couldn"t scream.
The only one who wasn"t affected was Aokiji, but he felt the pressure growing stronger. His eyes twitched as he couldn"t imagine how much the Navy has underestimated a threat like Izan.
"Oy oy, calm down, will you?" Aokiji said in a mocking tone, yet he used more of his own strength to counter and contend against Izan.
Every thing around Aokiji turned into ice, creating a domain which held off Izan"s pressure. Aokiji wasn"t able to push away Izan"s powers and the two forces clashed against each other with thunderous explosions.
"Seems like you have been hiding your powers very well until now." Aokiji said in a calm voice as he remembered who Izan was. He had read a report over who Heavenly Izan was and his powers, they had concluded that Izan was at the strength of an Vice Admiral. Yet right now, Izan was able to hold strongly against himself, an Admiral.
Izan sneered loudly as he squinted his eyes. "Do you really think I am afraid of you? You might be able to stand against me, but I promise you, you will never be able to kill or capture me, not any of my followers." Izan spoke in a deep voice as the pressure Izan was giving off was growing stronger.
Aokiji had a hard time guarding Charloss while holding back Izan"s domain of pressure.
Izan"s necklace turned into a large purple scythe which made Izan"s pressure even more domineering and powerful, and it had a tinge of arrogance and pride.
Izan didn"t hesitate as he swiped his scythe towards Aokiji, who made an ice sword with ice Devil Fruit Powers.
A loud clash between the ice sword and the purple scythe made the entire area freeze in time before both Aokiji and Izan were pushed backwards.
Blood was dripping from Izan"s right hand which he used to hold his scythe. Whereas Aokiji wasn"t injured externally, but he felt both his hands bring numb from the one clash they had.
Jiutian gazed at the fight without interfering as she wanted to see how strong Izan was after having awakened a portion of his Soul Powers and Gravity Law. Slowly but surely, her smile turned into a grin as she saw Izan improving by the second.
Robin wished to help Izan, but she felt powerless ad she knew she couldn"t partic.i.p.ate in the battles had to fight.
"I want to become stronger. Way way stronger. I want to be strong enough that I can walk beyond Izan in the battlefield and protect his back." Robin spoke in a hoa.r.s.e voice as her eyes were slightly bloodshot as she gazed at Izan and Aokiji clashing.
Nojiko nodded slowly as she clenched her fists until they became pale.
Jiutian"s smirk vanished as she peeked at Robin and Nojiko. "If you seriously mean that, I will make the training you two are undergoing a step harder. I have also managed to awaken all types of Haki, therefore I can help you two to do the same as awakening Haki would help the two of you in future battles." Jiutian stated in a calm voice.
As the three of them were talking, Izan and Aokiji had clashed over fifty times. Izan"s right hand was bloodied, yet his grip on the scythe was firm as ever .
Aokiji"s hand were numb and he could barely feel them. His expression turned worse after every clash as he knew he had no way in defeating Izan as he couldn"t use all of his abilities, in case he harmed the marines or Charloss nearby.
The reason Aokiji didn"t do so was because he knew that if he harmed Charloss, there would be endlessly more trouble coming his way. That was why Aokiji could only be on the defensive in this battle.
Without anyone noticing, the man in white jumped behind Izan as he slashed his scimitar towards Izan"s unprotected back
Aokiji had a smile on his face, Robin and Nojiko were horrified, Hanc.o.c.k was scared for what would happen to Izan the only ones were Jiutian and Izan.
Jiutian smiled brightly as she sneered inside, whereas Izan smirked while he let the scimitar hit his unprotected back.
As the scimitar hit Izan, it sent him flying towards the deck. Izan crashed down on the deck, yet he chuckled as he wasn"t wounded Izan swiped his scythe before anyone could react.
And the one Izan was aiming for, was the kneeling Charloss. His fast swipe cut through Charloss"s neck which sent his head flying through the air with a shocked expression on his face and his eyes wide open in horror.
Hanc.o.c.k couldn"t believe that Izan killed a Celestial Dragon and which would lead to having the entire world chase him till they killed him or captured him.
Robin started laughing as she knew that it was going as Izan"s plans through this battle. She felt happy that Izan could even battle against an Admiral like Aokiji to such degree.
Aokiji had his eyes open wide as he couldn"t believe that Izan had killed a Celestial Dragon.
The man in white started to sweat, because he was chosen to protect Charloss. And now that he had failed, his only fate was to be tortured until he died. His only options were either get punished or run away.
