Pirates: Building a Pirate Family

At the bow of that golden ship, stood a towering figure, a majestic presence reaching ten meters in height.

This figure resembled an unshakeable war god, his right hand raised high in a throwing stance.

And the trident planted in front of Akainu was none other than Napoleon's Sea God Trident.

Ranked among the Supreme Grade Swords, the Twelve Craftsmen.

Akainu stared at the trident before him, his gaze gradually becoming solemn.

His eyes followed the trident upward, finally settling on the tall figure above.

Then, he gritted his teeth and said, "The Rockefeller Kingdom, the Rockefeller Family! Hmph, it's you lot again, hindering our Navy's operations time and time again!"

As his words fell, Akainu's magma began to churn and surge violently, as if ready to erupt at any moment, turning everything around him to ashes.

In that instant, Napoleon leaped up like a lithe cheetah, standing steadily on the turbulent sea surface.

The originally unfathomable and dangerous sea now seemed like a docile sheep, obediently supporting him and sending him towards the harbor at an astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, Napoleon sped over like a bolt of lightning, then leaped lightly, landing accurately in front of Luffy.

He clenched his right hand forward, and instantly, the trident, which had been standing straight and motionless in the ground, began to tremble violently.

As if sensing its master's call, this weapon of immense power instantly transformed into a stream of light, swiftly returning to Napoleon's hand.

At this moment, Napoleon stood before Akainu, wielding the trident with imposing might, like an insurmountable mountain.

His tall and majestic figure completely blocked Luffy and Ace behind him.

"Long time no see, Ace! I didn't expect you to break our promise!"

Napoleon turned his head, his eyes like torches, staring at Ace as he spoke.

The three-year agreement, but now the deadline had arrived, yet Ace had failed to appear as promised.

Ace looked at the sudden appearance of Napoleon, a complex emotion flowing in his eyes.

"You... why are you here?"

Ace asked, looking at Napoleon with some surprise.

Faced with Ace's question, Napoleon simply smiled slightly, answering casually, "You are the crew member I have set my sights on, how could I stand by and watch you die? Besides, you still owe me a hearty battle! So, I can't let you leave this world so easily!"

"Napoleon, does the Rockefeller Kingdom really intend to get involved in this great war? Could it be that the Rockefeller Kingdom is ready to formally declare war on the World Government?"

Akainu did not rush to attack, his sharp, eagle-like eyes locked onto Napoleon before him, while simultaneously throwing out such an incredibly heavy accusation.

Faced with Akainu's questioning, Napoleon's lips curved into a faint smile.

"The Rockefeller Kingdom is naturally the Rockefeller Kingdom, but I am merely myself. My personal actions cannot be completely equated with the will and position of the entire Rockefeller Kingdom. Today, all the actions I take standing here represent only my own inner thoughts and decisions!"

As he spoke, Napoleon resolutely raised the cold, gleaming trident in his hand, pointing it straight at Akainu, his aura like a surging wave, impossible to ignore.

Seeing this, Akainu's eyes narrowed slightly, like two narrow and dangerous slits.

In an instant, the veins on his forehead bulged, and drops of scarlet blood flowed slowly down his cheeks, as if forced by Napoleon's fierce aura.

However, even so, Akainu still did not flinch, he stared intently at Napoleon in front of him, exuding a chilling pressure.

"Hmph, if that's the case, then be smart and leave here immediately! As long as you turn around and leave now, I will pretend that today's events never happened, and I will not pursue the matter any further!"

Akainu stared at Napoleon, speaking coldly.

Hearing this, Napoleon simply shook his head gently, a look of determination appearing on his face.

"No, I'm set on protecting Ace! No matter what, I will never allow anyone to harm him in the slightest!"

Having said that, Napoleon once again turned his gaze to Akainu, and the atmosphere between the two instantly became tense.

"Then there's nothing to talk about!"

Upon hearing these words, Akainu's eyes instantly became extremely sharp. Knowing that further words were useless, he decided to let his strength do the talking.

He clenched his fists with both hands, and instantly, both fists transformed into rolling, flowing, scorching magma, as if burning with endless rage.

"Hellhound!"

With Akainu's angry roar, the huge fist formed from magma, like a shooting star, slammed towards Napoleon with the force of a thunderbolt.

Faced with such a fierce offensive, Napoleon was not afraid. He quickly raised the cold, gleaming trident in his hand, and without hesitation, thrust it straight towards the oncoming magma fist.

There was a loud "clang", deafening, like the sound of two extremely hard metals colliding with each other.

Immediately following, a piercing tearing sound came.

Napoleon's originally tall and mighty body actually slid backwards uncontrollably.

His expression instantly became serious, clearly the power of the opponent's attack exceeded his expectations.

However, Napoleon did not intend to retreat. He gripped the trident in his hand tightly, gathering all the strength in his body to his arm, and the force in his hand increased sharply again.

Akainu stared coldly at the tall opponent before him – Napoleon.

He coldly said again, "I'll say it one last time, get out of here immediately! Otherwise, you'll bear the consequences!"

As he spoke, Akainu's magma fist in his right hand increased its strength by several degrees, as if ready to completely crush Napoleon in the next moment.

However, Napoleon showed no fear, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Want me to leave? Unless you can defeat me first!"
