CHAPTER 140 THE DISTORTION LIGHT EXPLODES

“Your mind has gone astray.”

Aokiji shook his head slowly. A man whose mind had gone astray and whose will was very firm was terrible.

Once left to their own devices, the worst can be that they become like Doflamingo, a Shichibukai, who has mastered countless dark deals and even made various deals with Yonkō (Four Emperors)!

In any case.

Today, Ross can’t be allowed to escape. Such a person can either be executed as soon as possible or be detained as soon as possible in Impel Down so that he can spend the rest of his life in the dark.

“Astray… Do you think so?

Ross gently smiled looked terrifying with his face covered with blood as he said, “Me going astray, Isn’t that the result of your so-called Justice.”

Marine’s justice, the darkness of the government, Straw Hat Pirates, the adventurer and the wicked who burned and plundered, and so on… Ross doesn’t really care.

He did not want to distinguish between justice and evil.

It was Marine and the government who forced the tag of evil on the top of his head and imposed the so-called justice on him.

Since both the government and Marine regard him as evil, then he will be evil from now on and will become the real evil that makes the government and Marine tremble!

“…”

Aokiji was calm and did not speak anymore. It was no use talking nonsense to a man who was determined and had terrible thoughts. It was not a voice but power that safeguarded justice.

Aokiji disappeared in place in a sudden flash. The next time he appeared, he came to Ross, clenched his right hand into a fist, turned it into a huge frost fist and hit Ross.

Bang!

In the state of Spirit Heart, Ross’s Observation Haki captured Aokiji’s movements. Although he couldn’t react as fast as Aokiji, he still had time to react and slammed his fist against the coming ice fist.

Aokiji’s frost fist crumbled and was hardly affected by the impact of his fists, while Ross flew straight backward.

He is severely outclassed.

Ross even feels that Aokiji hasn’t done all he can and he is holding back his powers. After all, he can easily turn an island into an ice sheet, or even freeze the sea between two islands for up to a week.

Accept fate?

No, this idea didn’t exist from the beginning.

In any case, as long as he has not fallen, he will never give up.

His strength today is far from Aokiji, but he is much stronger than the straw hats pirates that landed on the Sabaody Archipelago. He will not give up even if there is not a single possibility remain.

“Distortion, Sonic Explosion!”

Ross whispered, hissing and cracking again in Aokiji’s ear.

However, this time, Aokiji was prepared. His ears were instantly frozen, filled with ice, and not affected by sound blasting.

“If the same trick worked on me twice then I would have no qualification to remain as a Marine Admiral.” Aokiji breathed out a cold breath and charges violently towards Ross.

But.

Almost immediately as he approached Ross, Ross’s eyes suddenly flashed with really bright light, like Kizaru’s lasers, piercing Aokiji’s eyes.

Distortion, Light Explosion!

Aokiji’s eyes ached and his movements deformed instantly. Ross did not hesitate to seize the opportunity, kicked out with one leg between Aokiji’s chest and abdomen and caused Aokiji to fly back from the impact.

Ross did not escape this time. He knew that he could not escape now. Aokiji was hardly injured. He could recover in the next moment and come back.

He flashed and rushed towards Aokiji.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A series of punches and kicks poured down on Aokiji and while Aokiji remains mostly unaffected the constant attacks caused him to sink into the ice below him.

Without any hesitation, Ross lifted his foot and utilized Geppō (Moonwalk) and Gravity Distortion and rose rapidly toward the sky, trying to break into the fog above and disappear.

Whiz!

Almost 100 meters away from Ross, Aokiji’s face was as cold as frost, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, his eyes racing in cold pursuit, his arms staggering in front of him and waving violently.

“Ice Saber!”

His arms are like two swords. Instead of sword energy, he chops out two white sabers, revealing the cold power of the weapons. He sends them towards Ross in the sky at a very fast speed.

Ross was forced to avoid them sideways.

Aokiji speeds up again and catches up with Ross, he swings his hands violently and the ability of the ice fruit erupts as countless ice blocks appear in the sky, condensing into numerous sharp spears and like a wind Rainstorm, they rained down on Ross.

“It’s still a little short…”

Ross’s eyes are low as the perception of the Observation Haki is limited. A few of them are able to cover an island like Enel.

This is a sea of mist, with poor vision. To escape from Aokiji’s hands, he needs to escape and create an opportunity to escape from Aokiji Kenbonshoku’s(Observation) perception of distance.

Kāchā! Kāchā!

Faced with the falling ice spears, Ross could only keep fisting and smashing the spears. When a spear was about to fall on him, Aokiji flashed over to Ross and attacked him with one leg.

Ross punched up but failed to stand still for a second and then flew backward under Aokiji’s power, He fell to the ground again.

“Ice Block: Partisan!”

Aokiji stood in mid-air, his eyes glaring and his arms are united which are turned into very thick pikes, He attacked Ross with these pikes as Ross was crashed into the ground.

The fallen Ross concentrates the power of distortion and Armament Haki on the front and back and the power of distortion and Armament Haki offset most of the impact in a collision.

However.

Even so, he still suffered a heavy blow and blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

Because of the existence of Tenacious talent, his body is very durable. But In this case, where he was attacked repeatedly with heavy blows, his body is now on the verge of serious injury.

“If I go to this way, even if I have Tenacious talent, it won’t last long…”

He broke the ice on impact and had to drill out of it. Ross, who was breathing heavily, blinked eyes, constantly thinking about all the opportunities that might exist.

If he got attacked just one more time, He will be seriously injured and will enter a situation where he cannot heal himself. His own strength will be greatly affected and then there will be no possibility of escape.

Countless ideas flashed in his mind in the state of Spirit Heart and were excluded one by one until only one left.

“The only possibility is this… In that case, let’s try it.”

Ross took a deep breath and looked at Aokiji, who fell not far away. The light in his eyes finally settled.
