One Piece: Reborn in Ohara

Near Beehive Island, on the frozen sea...

Aquarius holds a sword in his right hand and a seastone weapon in his left. The cloak on his body flaps as he looks at Akainu calmly.

Click.

He twisted his neck.

A trace of blood left the corner of Akainu's mouth, his eyes were very calm. He looked at Aquarius intensely, then shifted his gaze down, locking onto the seastone weapon in her hand. His eyes slightly narrowed.

Aokiji, on the other side, put down his blocking hands.

"Hah..."

He exhaled a long breath of cold air, and white mist rose from his body.

Aokiji looked sharply at the fingerless glove on Pisces's hand.

"That glove should be a seastone weapon! It's fast, powerful, and definitely used by a strong person...but why use a seastone weapon?"

On the other side, Akainu's face was serious.

"The slash is very powerful, but it also didn't use Haki! Otherwise, the sword just now could have caused me more serious injuries! But they didn't use Haki and are also equipped with seastone weapons!"

Swish.

Swish.

Both Akainu and Aokiji looked up, locking onto the powerful enemy in front of them.

In unison, they said:

"Although they are powerful, they don't have the power of Haki!"

Just as Akainu and Aokiji were making their judgments, Rob on the shore had a smile on his face.

He raised his hands and applauded the two:

"Good analysis! Both of you can directly judged that they don't have Haki! As expected of Admirals - at least they have some brains! The two of you, not bad!"

"Although they are very powerful, they really don't have Haki's power - but if you underestimate them because of this, you will suffer a big loss!"

Sitting casually on a piece of ice in a leisurely manner, Rob looked at Akainu and Aokiji.

"I deliberately released the news of the attack on Beehive Island this time! There is only one purpose - to attract enemies of sufficient strength, so that they can get enough training and test their combat efficiency!"

"To be honest—although I don't take you guys seriously, I have to say that the strength of Admirals is indeed very suitable for testing their current strength!"

"You two work hard, as long as you can defeat the four of them, you will be able to face me!"

Hearing Rob's words...

Akainu and Aokiji froze for a moment before they could say anything more.

Swish! Swish!

Aries and Taurus, who were still standing beside Rob, flew directly into the air, and each used their seastone weapons to attack Akainu and Aokiji simultaneously at a very fast speed!

"Um?!!"

Both Akainu and Aokiji's faces changed as they launched their counterattacks.

However—

Just as they began to intercept Aries and Taurus, Aquarius and Pisces, who had already made their moves, followed closely behind and attacked them.

Quickly, the fierce confrontation and battle began on the two battlefields.

Aquarius and Aries vs. Akainu, Pisces and Taurus vs. Aokiji.

Even though the four Seraphs don't have the power of Haki, their seastone weapons make up for it, posing a huge threat to Akainu and Aokiji.

Coupled with Rob's Devil Fruit ability implanted in their blood factors, they have no emotion and no fear in fighting, calculating each move with precision.

Under such circumstances—

Akainu and Aokiji found themselves at a disadvantage after less than a minute of stalemate.

As they left the T1-type terminators to find Rob, they hoped to replicate their past victory on Jaya Island. Now stronger, they aimed for a righteous two-on-oneattack on Rob!

They wanted to test the gap between themselves and Rob today and prove they were no longer the weaklings who couldn't even make a move in front of him.

Especially Akainu—

He was killed by a single strike back then, but it did not leave a psychological shadow. On the contrary, he became more courageous, working hard to improve his strength over the years, just to be able to stand in front of Rob.

To tell Rob himself—

He has become stronger!

But now, in the face of Rob's four subordinates, the ones who wanted to fight two-on-one, are being attacked by two of Rob's subordinated. They weren't completely overwhelmed, but they were definitely struggling.

Time passed bit by bit.

Rob just watched the battle on the three battlefields.

The T1 Terminator Legion, along with Marine Vice Admirals, Rear Admirals, and a large number of Marine soldiers, were initially in a balanced state. However, as time went by, many Marine soldiers were defeated. With all the Terminators focusing on the high-ranking officers, the Terminators began to gain the upper hand.

Aquarius and Aries worked together to suppress Akainu, but achieving absolute victory seemed to require more time. Aokiji, on the other hand, was being suppressed more ruthlessly by Pisces and Taurus, but victory was still not imminent.

"Both of them have become stronger!" Rob observed calmly, but internally he was evaluating the situation.

"The current Akainu can already be considered at the 'apex' of the sea! This Admiral of Headquarters is indeed fully capable! Aokiji is slightly stronger than Akainu."

"It should be his inner confusion that restricts the speed of his strength improvement. It seems that many things I did before have had a significant impact on the justice in Aokiji's heart."

Rob touched his chin, a slight smile forming on his lips.

"Maybe, I can drag him into my camp in the future!"

"No—this possibility is quite large! After all, under the original trajectory, this guy can even join the Blackbeard Pirates, so it should be easier to join me!"

If the opportunity arose, Rob would try to win Aokiji over. Even if Aokiji wouldn't become a core member, his sea "apex" level combat power was valuable.

An hour passed. 

In the battle between the Terminator Legion and the Marine fleet, the Terminators, after losing some of their own, took the lead and seemed on the verge of completing the battle.

Two hours passed.

The Terminator Legion completely resolved the battle. All Marine general-level officers were defeated and captured, and nearly half of the Marine soldiers surrendered. For these captured Marines, Rob had no intention of killing them; he just detained them.

"Leftover—" Rob looked at the two remaining battlefields.

"It's just Akainu and Aokiji!"

He glanced at the two fierce battlefields but didn't choose to intervene immediately.

"Give them another hour! The test of combat power is enough! A single Seraphim, without mastering the power of Haki, should only be able to barely match the Marine Headquarters Admiral!"

"But if two join forces, they can suppress the Admiral of Headquarters! If three are together, it probably won't be a problem to kill an Admiral of Headquarters!"

The Seraphims, devoid of emotions and fear, could fully cooperate with each other. Thus, with each additional Seraphim, the combined combat power and strength were exponentially greater.

Quickly, another hour passed.

Pat.

Rob stood up, his eyes calm.

"It's almost time!"

Swish.

With a movement of Rob's figure, he stepped onto the frozen sea, and with gentle steps, walked directly towards the two battlefields of Akainu and Aokiji that had never been separated.

As he approached the battlefield, Rob spoke directly to give his order:

"You four, step back! Next—let me accompany them through two tricks!"

Hearing Rob's words, the four Seraphims, bearing injuries of varying degrees and traces of battle, did not hesitate. They let go of Akainu and Aokiji, who they had been suppressing, and immediately chose to retreat.

With a few quick movements, they reached Rob's side.

"Master!"

Nodding, Rob said:

"You guys have done a great job—I already know your strength! Next, leave it to me."

Hearing this, the four Seraphims responded and stepped aside, watching Rob's back.

thud

thud

The sound of Rob's footsteps was clear and gentle, without the slightest sense of urgency, bringing immense pressure to Akainu and Aokiji, who stood together with injuries all over their bodies.

Blood flowed from their heads, noses, and mouths, and there were battle marks on their bodies. Aokiji and Akainu, both in similar condition, looked at Rob with utmost seriousness and caution.

Before Rob even made a move, both of their faces were covered in cold sweat, and their backs were cold. The two adversaries subconsciously moved closer together.

"Rob!"

Seeing Rob's approaching figure, Akainu lowered his head slightly, gritted his teeth, and called out his name. His body turned into magma, exuding a terrifying high temperature.

"Haa—"

Aokiji's body was releasing cold air, and even the air around him felt frozen. He also looked at Rob with serious eyes, not daring to relax at all.

Casually drawing his sword, Rob looked at Aokiji and Akainu and said:

"One strike! It's your chance to save your lives!"
