One Piece : Prince of Charlotte Family

Chapter 38: Chapter 38 : Dual-Knife Style, Aggrieved Akainu



"Keng..."

In the fire that soared into the sky,

The hot magma fist burst forth, accompanied by intense waves of heat and a torrent of burning breath.

It made the scalp tingle.

Another pushback against Wilhelm's attack.

"Not only does he have a strange ability, but also a Grandmaster-level dual swordsmanship?"

Akainu's expression was cold, his eyes sharp.

Charlotte Wilhelm's distinctive and refined dual-knife swordsmanship had begun to unsettle him.

With perfect coordination between the two legendary swords, Shichiseiken and

Nidai Kitetsu, the power behind his strikes doubled.

One plus one became far greater than two—nearly impossible to defend against.

However, this only fueled Akainu's intense murderous intent.

The more impressive Wilhelm became, the greater the threat to Marine's future.

A member of the Charlotte family, said to have inherited Charlotte Linlin's monstrous talent perfectly, must not be allowed to return alive.

Otherwise, it would only be a matter of time before Wilhelm grew into a second Charlotte Linlin.

When that happens, the BIG-MOM Pirates' already overwhelming power will become even more terrifying, and it will be impossible to contain.

"Shave!"

In the next moment, Akainu stomped his feet.

His body became a blur, a speed too fast for the naked eye to track.

Using Observation Haki, he swiftly struck toward Wilhelm's rear without hesitation.

However, Wilhelm, who appeared there in an instant, vanished like lightning again.

The hot magma distorted the air, and with a loud boom, large waves of magma erupted, thick clouds of smoke billowing into the sky.

The thick hull of the ship was easily burned through, crumbling like fragile tofu.

People couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Akainu was one of the few powerful Vice Admirals in the Marine Headquarters.

Constantly fighting on the front lines, his experience in battle was vast.

Though seemingly at a disadvantage, his calm and calculated approach made him formidable.

As he blocked the lightning-fast attacks from every direction, he remained patient, waiting for the right moment to find weaknesses in Wilhelm's defenses.

His overwhelming strength, combined with high-level Armament Haki, caused his indestructible, incredibly hot magma fists to shake Wilhelm's arms numb, forcing him to retreat violently.

As the clash continued,

Even Wilhelm's twin swords, wrapped in Haki and crackling with electricity, couldn't fully shield him from the terrifying heat of the Magu Magu no Mi Fruit.

The temperature of the swords began to rise to unbearable levels, scorching to the point of discomfort.

Only a natural monster like Wilhelm could endure such intense heat, capable of holding his sword even in such a condition—sufficiently hot to sear raw meat.

For anyone else, holding the hilt in this state would be almost impossible.

"Woo hoo hoo…"

"Crackling…"

The wind howled fiercely.

Flames blazed, and thick smoke filled the battlefield.

Wilhelm's figure flickered like a ghost, constantly moving and shifting locations.

Blinding, dazzling electric lights wove together, jumping and sparkling unpredictably, making it impossible to maintain focus.

"Chi-chi-"

Terrifying slashes rained down in rapid succession, densely packed from all directions.

In an instant, they formed a web of steel, encasing Sakazuki within.

The flames roared, and Wilhelm's afterimage shimmered across the sinking wreckage of the warship, creating an illusion of countless clones.

Each wielded either the Natural Tooth or the Seven Star Sword, striking with astonishing precision, launching a horrifying onslaught upon Akainu.

The fearsome power of Paramecia Transferring Fruit was fully unleashed at this moment.

"You brat, don't get too arrogant…"

The furious Akainu roared, his voice echoing across the battlefield.

"Great Eruption!"

Veins bulged from his right arm as a surge of magma burst forth in torrents.

An impossibly massive magma giant fist, radiating searing heat, was enveloped in high-level Armament Haki, invisible to the naked eye.

With a powerful blow, it crashed down onto the dense sword net above, tearing through it with unstoppable force.

"Boom…"

"Woo hoo hoo…"

The deafening roar shook the heavens, while the heat wave rolled mercilessly across the battlefield.

The overwhelming slashes were shattered by the colossal magma fist, disintegrating the web into nothingness.

The enormous magma giant fist shattered into fragments, leaving behind a chaotic storm of destruction.

"Shhhhhh…"

"Boom…boom…"

Countless volcanic bombs erupted in every direction, spewing magma and destruction with alarming speed.

Splashes of magma surged everywhere, creating a sense of impending doom.

"Clatter…crash…"

The sea rumbled, waves violently tossing and tumbling in every direction.

The flaming warship disintegrated entirely, sinking beneath the waves, leaving nothing but floating wreckage.

"Zizi…"

"Ahhh…"

The misty sea was boiling with heat.

The terrifying temperature from the magma directly caused the seawater to bubble uncontrollably.

Marine survivors still clinging to life screamed as they were scalded by the boiling water.

"Crack, crack…"

The waves churned fiercely beneath the misty surface.

Using Moonwalk, Wilhelm stepped on the atmosphere and floated momentarily in the air.

"Damn it, unrestricted teleportation? This ability is too troublesome…"

Sakazuki's expression darkened as he observed the battlefield.

He no longer cared about the fate of his subordinates.

With sharp vigilance, Observation Haki guided him, as he dared not let his guard down.

The fight was intense and brief.

Sakazuki had a general understanding of Wilhelm's ability.

It seemed that Wilhelm could instantly teleport himself or any target. The speed of this ability far exceeded Borsalino Sparkling Fruit, making it nearly impossible to guard against—swift, unpredictable, and difficult to counter.

For Akainu, who wields the power of the Magu Magu no Mi Fruit, this posed a challenge. While he could use Moonwalk to stay airborne for short periods, the Red line around them limited his mobility. The land provided a much-needed foundation for his devastating attacks, but here, with nothing but water, his full potential was restrained.

However, Wilhelm, with his Transfer Fruit ability and mastery of Moonwalk, thrived in this environment. His swordsmanship, combined with the ability to teleport, gave him an advantage that Akainu couldn't easily overcome.

The battle shifted tides with the unpredictable use of fruit transfer. Even with Akainu's superior strength, in terms of both Haki and raw power, he struggled to gain the upper hand.

A sigh of frustration escaped Sakazuki.

"Haaah—"

Without warning, using his Observation Haki, Sakazuki unleashed his magma-infused fist toward Wilhelm's head.

In an instant, Wilhelm's figure materialized high in the sky, only to disappear again like lightning just before the lava fist could strike.

The next moment, a silver blur appeared directly behind Akainu.

"Double Sword Style: Extreme Tiger Hunting!"

Two sharp swords—Nidai Kitetsu and the Shichiseiken—intertwined with crackling electric sparks and wrapped in high-level Armament Haki. With overwhelming force, they slashed down with precision.

Akainu, still recovering from his earlier attack, widened his eyes as his hurriedly formed Armament Haki defense shattered like brittle steel.

"Keng…"

"Shhh…"

Blood and magma splattered into the air as Akainu's hurried block couldn't withstand the brutal onslaught.

Almost simultaneously, Wilhelm activated his Transfer Fruit ability again.

"Dark Hound!"

An explosive eruption of magma, accompanied by terrifying speed, surged forth from Akainu's fist. His high-level Armament Haki enhanced it further, but Wilhelm didn't hesitate.

In an instant, he vanished, appearing far away in a flash.

"Boom!!!"

The shockwave from the collision sent tremors through the battlefield, leaving the battlefield even more chaotic and dangerous.
