Chapter 265: The Battle at the Top Begins
After hearing what Uchiha Feiyu said, Sengoku's face finally relaxed a little. After all, the other party was not his navy. As long as he could ensure the battle with Whitebeard, Sengoku didn't want to care where Uchiha Feiyu had just gone.
The Whitebeard Pirates, who had just emerged from the sea, had no idea what was going on. However, as they talked, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates also realized that Uchiha Hiba was their enemy.
"You are so arrogant! If you want to deal with our Whitebeard Pirates, let me meet you!"
The first to speak was the captain of the third team of the Whitebeard Pirates, Jozu, the user of the Diamond Fruit. He jumped up, skipped across a long section of sea water, and landed in front of Uchiha Feiyu.
Then, his skin gradually transformed into a sparkling diamond, and a dark and strong aura wrapped around his fists:
"Kid, are you ready for the price of provoking the Whitebeard Pirates?!"
As soon as the words were spoken, a shiny black fist as big as a casserole hit Uchiha Feiyu's head directly.
Looking at the swinging fist, Uchiha Feiyu chuckled, and did not even pull out the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand. Instead, he stretched out a palm, without even covering it with domineering aura, and directly grabbed the opponent's fist.
Joz's eyes lit up and he immediately put more strength into his fist. As the user of the Diamond Fruit, he couldn't say anything about other aspects, but in terms of head-on confrontation, this guy even dared to compete with Kaido and Big Mom. Seeing that the other party didn't know what was good for him and just stretched out his hand, he had decided to break the bones of the guy in front of him.
"Be careful, that's Diamond Joz, his ability..."
The one who shouted was Admiral Qing Zhi, but he stopped halfway through his words, a look of shock on his face.
Uchiha Feiyu's strength has been fully demonstrated in the battle with Garp. All the senior naval officers present did not think that he would be defeated by Jozu, but without using Haki to fight a monster like Jozu, they all felt that he would probably suffer a loss.
But at the moment when Diamond Joz's fist came into contact with Uchiha Feiyu, his whole body went limp, and he felt that all the energy in his body had dissipated. Even his devil fruit ability could not be activated at all. He could even feel that everything he had was being absorbed by the opponent's palm.
"My...my ability...what happened?"
Joz opened his mouth to speak, and his voice became hoarse, which surprised even himself. His originally tall, full, and muscular body withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even his height of more than four meters was getting shorter. After a moment, he shrunk into a little old man of only about 1.56 meters.
"What kind of ability is this? What a terrifying devil fruit ability!"
Marco's face was full of shock. He jumped up immediately, waved his hands and turned them into burning flaming wings. Two balls of flames hit Uchiha Feiyu directly.
At the same time, Whitebeard also tightened the sword in his hand, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.
The destructive power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit was too incredible. If he were to use it, the first person to die would be the now extremely weak Joz. So after thinking about it for a while, he finally decided not to do it.
Seeing that Marco's flame was about to hit Uchiha Feiyu's head, Uchiha Feiyu did not show any fear. The black gas in his hand spread and absorbed the flame in an instant.
At this moment, Joz, who had turned into a little old man, let out a weak and painful groan, took his last breath, and turned into a mummy.
For a moment, the entire Navy Headquarters fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the corpse in Uchiha Feiyu's hand, until Uchiha Feiyu gently waved his hand and threw the light corpse to the ground. Then, with a slight click, the corpse broke into pieces, like a dried clay doll.
After a moment of silence, a volcanic eruption sounded from the Whitebeard Pirates, and Whitebeard standing on the deck roared:
"Damn you little brat! Go to hell!"
Amidst the roar, a huge ball of white light condensed from Whitebeard's Kusukimi sword and smashed hard at Uchiha Toba who was standing in the square of the Navy Headquarters.
At first there was just a slight vibration, then the entire square began to tilt, and finally there was an earth-shattering tremor. Just the prelude to the activation of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit was enough to make people feel as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was breaking.
"Watch out! The strongest man in the world is about to take action!"
Admiral Sengoku, who was standing at the highest point, roared loudly, and under the vibration of the white light ball, the Navy Headquarters began to tilt. Many strong men took action without saying a word to prevent the entire Navy Headquarters from being torn apart.
As the direct target of the vibrating light ball, Uchiha Feiyu slowly stretched out a hand and grabbed the white light ball. In the faint black air, the light ball was instantly sucked up by Uchiha Feiyu.
The abilities of Devil Fruits are also restrained against each other. For example, Whitebeard's Tremor Fruit is not very effective against Nature-type abilities. This is also the reason why Akainu didn't seem to be seriously injured after being hit so many times by Whitebeard in the original work - if it was an Animal-type Devil Fruit of the same level, even if it was a Mythical Beast-type Devil Fruit, Akainu would be shocked to the point of being burned to death, and would be disabled if not dead.
As for restraint, Uchiha Feiyu's Dark Dark Fruit can confidently say: I can restrain all devil fruits!
No matter how powerful the destructive power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is, when facing the Dark-Dark Fruit that can absorb and devour all fruit powers and develop to awakening, the final result is that all the vibration power will be absorbed.
"What!? That kind of power... can even ignore the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!"
"Is the vampire fruit so scary?"
Garp's eyes widened, he looked at Sengoku and asked.
Zhan Guo shook his head, glanced at the flames wrapped around Uchiha Feiyu, and said very straightforwardly:
"How should I know? You know, the Fantasy Devil Fruit itself is very rare, and there are even fewer that can be developed to awaken. As for the development and awakening of the Vampire Fruit... Over the years, maybe there is only one example like this kid. Who knows what functions they have?"
Both the navy and the pirates were shocked by Uchiha Feiyu's explosive power. Fortunately, the Dark-Dark Fruit and the Vampire Fruit are basically evil types, and both the black energy and the blood energy look similar, so they were not suspected by others.
Of course, there was no point in doubting, anyway, now Uchiha Feiyu no longer needed to deliberately conceal himself. A bloody figure flashed, and the power of the Momo Fruit was activated. Uchiha Feiyu's speed was almost as fast as space teleportation, and he appeared directly on the Mobius and slashed at Whitebeard.
Although the power of the Momo Fruit was not maximized, Uchiha Feiyu's current speed was more than ten times the speed of sound. Even if Whitebeard reacted with his observation Haki, the speed of his body's movements was far behind his own Haki.
Facing the Sandai Kitetsu that was chopped down by Uchiha Hiha, Whitebeard could only try his best to condense the Armament Haki and block the Sandai Kitetsu.
The Sandai Kitetsu hovered in front of Whitebeard's chest for a moment, and the Armament Haki on the sword collided with the Armament Haki on Whitebeard's chest in mid-air. The terrifying air waves spread out, causing cracks to appear on the deck of the Mobius.
With a "puff", Whitebeard, in his haste, finally failed to block the sharp sword of the Sandai Kitetsu. The sword tip flashing with blood pierced into his chest and instantly began to suck the blood and vitality from his body.
But it was only a moment, and a huge domineering aura suddenly burst out, blocking Uchiha Feiyu's devil fruit ability. At the same time, Whitebeard punched down, and a terrifying shock wave burst into the air, directly shocking Uchiha Feiyu away.
After falling down twice, Uchiha Feiyu stabbed his sword into the square and retreated seven or eight meters before he stabilized his body. Although the Dark-Dark Fruit can absorb the power of the Vibration Fruit, it cannot absorb the physical phenomena directly caused by the Vibration Fruit. Whitebeard just detonated the light ball of the Vibration Fruit's ability in his hand, which caught Uchiha Feiyu off guard and sent him flying.
However, although Uchiha Feiyu was blown away, he was only a little embarrassed and did not suffer any injuries. Instead, White Beard covered his chest and coughed, with cold sweat on his forehead.
The wound on the chest was not a big deal, after all, it only pierced the muscle and did not hurt the internal organs. It was just that in order to become immune to the power of the vampire fruit, Whitebeard's domineering aura was greatly depleted.
You must know that Uchiha Feiyu's vampire fruit has long been strengthened and developed to an unpredictable level. Although Whitebeard relied on his own domineering aura to be immune to the power of the fruit, the consumption can be imagined.
The power of devil fruits can indeed be offset by Haki, but they are not immune to Haki. The stronger the developed fruit ability, the more Haki is needed to offset it.
Only a Four Emperor of Whitebeard's level can offset the power of Uchiha Toba's vampire fruit. But this can only be done once. If it happens too many times, the loss of domineering aura alone will exhaust the Four Emperors.
Although Whitebeard was old and frail, he was also experienced and had fought many battles. After one move, he knew that if Uchiha Feiyu had another chance to get close, there would be no need to fight, as he would definitely die - to a certain extent, the vampire fruit could be said to be specifically designed to defeat old men.
So he ignored the backlash of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and clenched his fists, swinging them with a huge vibration force. With Whitebeard crossing his fists, he punched the air next to him hard. With the sound of cracking, dense cracks suddenly appeared, and the horrible shockwaves erupted in an instant, directly leading to a devastating tsunami.
No matter what kind of devil fruit user it is, they cannot change the characteristic of being restrained by sea water!
Looking at the raging tsunami, Uchiha Feiyu returned to the execution platform in a flash. His performance just now had completely wiped out the bad impression of being late, so he spoke without hesitation:
"General Qingzhi, it's your turn! I can't stop these tsunamis!"
Without Uchiha Feiyu saying anything, Qing Zhi stood up, threw his cape behind him, and jumped out:
"Frozen moment—Ice Age!"
The ice fruit took effect instantly, and the extremely cold air spread, freezing the oncoming tsunami that was dozens of meters high into an ice wall in an instant. It also froze several kilometers of sea surface directly into ice cubes, and at the same time froze the Whitebeard Pirates' large fleet.
In fact, the navy's biggest trump card that allowed them to go to war with Whitebeard was Aoki, the user of the Ice Fruit. Otherwise, facing the tsunami, every high-ranking navy officer would at most be able to escape with his life, but the 10 navy officers would not be able to be saved.
During the battle at the top, although Akainu was the one who worked the hardest, the one who played the biggest role was Aokiji, who had been paddling all the time, because only he could restrain Whitebeard's sea shock ability.
Otherwise, facing a disaster-level fruit like the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, ordinary soldiers would probably be wiped out in the first round of attack. If the devil fruit user does not have the physical skills and domineering level of a general-level officer, he will definitely die.
As Aoki froze the entire sea, the pirates also had a foothold. The pirates from the Whitebeard Pirates rushed over from the ice, howling, and the two sides immediately engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
The navy was not to be outdone, and a group of vice admirals led by the admiral came forward. As for the Seven Warlords of the Sea - they just took a leisurely approach, and no one expected these guys to take any real action.
Not to mention that among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Jinbe was imprisoned in Impel Down for opposing the Battle of Marineford. Uchiha Toba didn't know whether he had killed this guy when he was on the sixth floor?
Another Shichibukai, Blackbeard, had already defected from the navy and died at the hands of Uchiha Toba while advancing into the city.
In fact, there are only five Shichibukai left in the entire navy, and they are all a bunch of lazy people. Unless Sengoku is mentally retarded, he can't expect them to fight tough battles.
The strong men from both sides immediately started fighting fiercely. Uchiha Feiyu, who was standing on top, had a smile on his face. Rich blood and black energy came out of his body, as if he was a big devil. The blood and black energy condensed into the shape of a bat and then spread out.
"There are so many vampire bats! Ughhhhhhhhh!"
"Don't touch these bats! They'll suck your blood in an instant!"
"Why don't attacks have any effect on these bats? It's just like they are transformed into nature elements!"
“Aaaaah! There are more of them! These bats can increase their numbers by sucking blood!!”
"Damn it... it's that bastard Blood Demon again!! The power of the Vampire Fruit is too troublesome!"
As Uchiha Feiyu used this group attack again, the ordinary pirates on the battlefield were immediately in trouble. Without dual-color domineering and no special devil fruit abilities, they would die if they were faced with the blood bats created by the vampire fruit. After they died, more bats would be created...
Among the tens of thousands of pirates under Whitebeard, 90% of them were the type that relied only on brute force. Facing the overwhelming swarms of blood bats, they were almost killed or injured in just a dozen minutes.
