One Piece: Under the Throne

Kizaru, who was cut into two pieces by the blue blade, turned into a stream of light again and distanced himself from Leo.

"That was a close call. I almost died."

"Stop lying, Brother Kizaru, your acting skills are so bad that it won't work."

Kizaru seemed not to have heard Leo's words, and asked on his own: "You are obviously a parahuman type, why can you transform into an element?"

Apparently, Kizaru was confused by Leo's body turning into sea water in the previous confrontation. According to naval intelligence records, Leo can control water, but in today's battle with Kizaru, he found that the information was ridiculously wrong. The range of this water control is too large, and it is even more unreasonable that the opponent is obviously a superhuman type, but he can actually transform into a natural element. Could it be that Leo also has a natural fruit?

This is too outrageous, is it the power of the awakened fruit? But how old is he, but he has reached a level that many people with special abilities cannot reach in their lifetime. It's too exaggerated.

It seems that we need to be more serious.

Kizaru raised his hand and pointed at Leo, with golden light flashing at his fingertips [laser beam].

A thicker and faster laser shot towards Leo, and Leo also fired back with a laser, wearing the long-lost seastone armor. The blue and gold lasers collided in mid-air, and the energy formed a tug-of-war in the stalemate.

Kizaru raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Leo, your move is very similar to mine. Have you seen me before?"

Leo smiled and responded: "Don't underestimate the power of science. I don't think I have a freak-like physical talent. I can only rely on external forces."

Leo's words brought back some memories for Kizaru: "My teacher also said the same thing to me, but I don't agree. It seems that we are the same kind of people."

【Eight-foot mirror】

Kizaru's body turned into golden light and appeared in front of Leo in the blink of an eye, then he drew out the [Sword of Ame-no-Kurokumo].

"But the teacher is right about one thing. It's always good to learn more things."

Yan Bi slashed towards Leo with a golden slash.

Although Leo used his observation Haki to capture Kizaru's movements, his body could not keep up. He failed to completely dodge when he dodged backwards and was slashed by Kizaru's sword on the seastone armor. Fortunately, the seastone armor was extremely strong and was knocked away by the sword.

While flying backwards, Leo stepped on the sea surface with his feet to ease the impact. Seeing Kizaru's body glowing with golden light again, Leo got a headache.

"Damn it! Another speed-type opponent. First it was the Thunder Fruit, and now it's the even faster Pikachu Fruit."

But Leo didn't have time to think, he just fell to the ground and completely fell into the sea. Leo kept diving underwater, and when he reached a certain depth, he began to activate his ability.

In an instant, the sea became turbulent, and dozens of waterspouts composed of sea water rushed straight into the sky.

The sky suddenly darkened, and large dark clouds gathered as the waterspout rose into the sky.

"How terrifying! It can actually affect the weather. Where will you attack next?" Although he said some nonsense, Kizaru's eyes were fixed on the sea. He had lost track of Leo since the moment he entered the sea. Even if his Observation Haki tried to sense him, he could not find him, as if Leo had merged into one with the sea.

Suddenly, an unforgettable scene appeared in the space covered by Leo's ability. Countless water droplets floated up on the sea surface, and the dark clouds above began to rain heavily. Kizaru felt that the space was disordered, and he could not tell which side was the sky and which side was the sea.

Leo's voice sounded at the same time: "Welcome to my world, Brother Kizaru, let's fight again."

Leo completely transformed this space into his own domain, where everything was controlled by him. Leo's figure floated in the air and stood opposite Kizaru.

When Kizaru saw him appear, he turned into golden light again. In the blink of an eye, he slashed Leo's body with a sword, but this time he only hit Leo's illusion.

"Water can refract light, and naturally it can deceive vision. In my world, you have already lost the opportunity to take the initiative [Water Sword: Thousand Blades Slash]."

Following Leo's roar, the water droplets seemed to stagnate in the air for a second, and then formed into countless blades, submerging Kizaru.

Of course, these attacks were useless to Kizaru. When he saw the water droplets rising from the sea, he always maintained his elemental state. Even if the water blades chopped him into pieces, they could not hurt his body.

"Without Haki, you can't touch the Natural System. Don't you know such a simple truth?"

"Haha, it's rare for you to use your ultimate move so that I can show off for a while. Try this now."

Leo instantly separated the temperature in a water sword, turning it into an ice sword and aiming it at Kizaru: "This is my first time using this move, and I can't control the strength well. Brother Kizaru, don't die."

Then a powerful aura burst out, black lightning appeared in the dense rain, Leo burst out with domineering aura and reached out to grasp the ice sword, and the domineering aura wrapped around Leo's arm and onto the sword.

"Overlord Color Entanglement"

Kizaru looked extremely solemn: "Has it grown to this extent? How scary."

The ice sword wrapped in the color of dominance slashed towards Kizaru. Kizaru was holding a lightsaber but did not dare to fight the opponent head-on, so he had to dodge.

However, what Kizaru did not expect was that this was just an illusion. By the time he reacted, the ice sword wrapped in the domineering color had already appeared in front of him.

"What a trouble!" Kizaru complained. Even if Leo managed to catch Kizaru off guard, he still couldn't touch the corner of Kizaru's clothes. As long as the user of the Pikachu Fruit didn't want to, no one could touch him.

And this time, Kizaru gave up the opportunity to counterattack and flashed directly out of Leo's territory.

The battle between the two sides attracted much attention, and the impact of the battle was also transmitted back to the Holy Land and the Navy Marshal's Office by Den Den Mushi.

Everyone who witnessed this battle was speechless. Too strong! Is this still the same Vice Admiral Kizaru who always slacked off at work? Is the Water Angel really only in his twenties?

After a while, the environmental warrior god Mas Saint among the Five Elders spoke up: "After this battle, Kizaru can be promoted to a higher rank. He is fully qualified to take over the title of admiral."

Peter Saint, the God of Agriculture, agreed: "Indeed, it is a waste that the three admiral positions have been vacant. It is right to quickly add capable people. After all, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are all unruly guys."

The God of Finance, Nasujuro Sei, was furious: "The Water Angel disobeyed orders, released the wanted criminals and blocked the navy. This is a contempt for the orders of the World Government."

The God of Law and Order, Woqiulisheng, disagreed with his opinion: "That guy has always wanted to recommend Yu Ren to become a Shichibukai. I think it is still feasible. After all, the Ryugu Kingdom is also a government member. I think it is better to approve Leo's proposal. What we want is stability. There is no need to lose combat power because of such a small matter."

The God of Science Defense expressed a neutral opinion: "I am very interested in the technology and weapons displayed by the Water Angel. If he is willing to hand it over to the World Government, we can pretend that this little incident he caused never happened."

"Second x4."

As expected, what the God of Science Defense proposed is in the best interest of the World Government, as it can obtain Leo's technology without causing internal friction.

At the same time, in the office of the Navy Marshal, Sengoku was looking at the pictures sent back by Den Den Mushi and wondered what he was thinking.

Seeing that both sides were unable to do anything to each other, Zhan Guo gave an order to his adjutant: "Tell them to stop fighting and return to the headquarters as soon as possible."

"Marshal, does the order include the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Sea Angels?"

"Tell them to return as soon as possible. I don't want to say it again."

Seeing the marshal was angry, the adjutant quickly shut up and left.

In the waters near Forxia Island, Leo was floating in the rain and looking at Kizaru in the distance: "Tsk! Brother, your title is well deserved, you are as agile as a monkey."

Before Kizaru could say anything, he was interrupted by the ringing of Den Den Mushi.

"Vice Admiral Kizaru, pass on the marshal's order, please return to the Marine Headquarters with the Water Angel immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Kizaru showed his signature obscene smile: "No more calls, it's time to get off work, Brother Leo, I'll invite you to have coffee at the Marine Headquarters."

Leo: ...
