240. It’s a coincidence
But then the same thing happened just like the previous time. Akainu's magma punch went straight through his body. Ken didn't even flinch when he was 'hit'.
"What?"
"Again?"
"What the hell is going on?"
Ace, who was ready to retaliate with his own words, felt fear when Akainu attacked from behind and almost warned him but seeing him not react at all made him happy. He had seen Obito in war so he knew the most dangerous power of this guy. Of course, he wasn't like Luffy who would unveil all secrets. He kept his mouth shut and if these people figured it out, at the end it wouldn't matter even if they knew what his ability was because it was broken to begin with.
Ken slowly turned around and looked at Akainu who had a very surprised look on his face. And Akainu wasn't the only one. Aokiji and Kizaru also attacked him from the two sides. Kizaru was bold enough to even kick him on his head. Garp trembled when he saw this and he almost got up to stop the Admirals but then he was more surprised.
Through his future sight he saw what had happened but even then he couldn't explain what was going on. Ken felt irritated that he was being seen as some kind of toy and in the next second huge lightning came straight down from the sky on the Admirals.
The admirals also felt the attack coming and had to elementalize the body to escape the wrath of lightning. The Admirals fell back on the platform and the lightning dissipated after leaving a huge burn mark on the platform. Sengoku and Garp were a little horrified. Garp especially. He had never seen Ken in this way.
He knew that Ken was powerful as he himself faced him before they went out to the sea but this was different. Not getting hit even after using haki. This was already ground breaking! And now summon lightning!
"We were brought up by your own hero here," Ken said, pointing at Garp. "Grandpa Garp. He is our grandfather. Yes, Ace was adopted by him, just like me. But your Fleet Admiral just said that Ace is the son of Roger, and though he didn't mention it, the main reason he brought it up at the start is to subtly imply that Ace is being executed because of his father. Isn't that right, Sengoku-san?"
Sengoku was taken aback by this accusation. Although he did mention it in the beginning, he didn't expect that Ken would catch the main point.
"What do you want to say, Kenny?" Sengoku asked.
"Well, your meaning is that a son of a devil can only be a devil. So in that case, I should go and kill Drake. He is the son of a navy turned pirate and betrayed the trust of the navy. So, in that case, he should be executed too since he is the filthy son of a pirate," Ken said with a smile hidden behind the mask.
This made Koby, Hellmeppo, Garp, Tsuru, and Sengoku flinch. Drake was the pirate and termed as one of the worst generation. He was the spy of the navy, though it crumbled apart in Sabody since the secret was out. Garp, Kizaru, and others were now horrified by Ken's words. Not because of the threat, but because of how far Ken seemed to have thought his plan.
At the beginning, he exposed Drake, and by now, people knew that he was a spy of the navy disguised as a pirate. But now that another revelation was out, it meant Ken had prepared all of this from the very beginning just to get back at Sengoku's words.
It was as if he had seen the future. The others might not get it, but those sitting on the upper levels definitely did.
"You are wrong. He is being executed because he is a criminal and his pirate lineage has nothing to do with it. It's is coincidental that he is the son of Roger." Sengoku said and tying to keep calm while thinking of ways to keep the mouth of Kenny shut. He was having a bad feeling as Ken had started talking.
Things were starting to get dangerous here after his arrival.
