Chapter 63 - The Shining Katakuri

After the ice bird was shattered by a blow from Katakuri, Kuzan, who was responsible for covering the advance of Sengoku, had to stop.

Although the injuries suffered by Kuzan before in Loguetown had not healed since the scene, he certainly did not retreat from the statement.

So, in the face of the sudden appearance of Katakuri, the two ice sabers also quickly condensed in Kuzan’s hands.

Compared to the ice saber squeezing by Kuzan, Kattakuri didn’t have any weapons in his hands. He was different from the second son of the Charlotte family in this world; this Katakuri basically finished the battle with his bare hands.

“I would like to see what kind of strength the Admiral here had.”

Because Katakuri was only reshaped by the copy when Wexford entered the first half of the Grand Line, he had not fight with Kuzan and Garp.

“Then I’ll let you see.”

After Kuzan whispered, his whole body lurched forward. The ice saber then swung towards Kattakuri.

The five-meter tall Katakuri had no intention of dodging in the face of the ice saber that swung over. When the ice saber was about to cut into him, the man who had been reclusive for years suddenly raised his only remaining hand.

Katakuri’s hand was covered with a large amount of Busoshoku Haki directly to the ice saber. Because of the Busoshoku Haki protection, Katakuri’s left hand was not hurt by the sharp ice saber. Kuzan’s ice saber, however, was touched by Katakuri’s Busoshoku Haki and then disintegrated.

However, Kuzan was one of the marine’s top combatants. The ice saber disintegration didn’t stop his attack.

When Katakuri’s hand just shattered the ice saber, Kuzan backhandedly squeezed Katakuri’s left arm, intending to use his fruit power to freeze Katakuri.

However, when Kuzan just reached out to Katakuri, Katakuri, as if he had seen it coming, directly pulled his left hand down, avoiding Kuzan’s attack.

Kuzan was still puzzled by the opponent’s fast reaction. The opponent pulled down the left hand and lifted it up.

At this time, the attack of Kuzan just fell short. His whole body was in a state of falling. Facing Katakuri’s defensive to offensive attack of a punch, Kuzan seemed to have no place to dodge.

Although Kuzan couldn’t avoid it, he wouldn’t sit still to die. After all, Katakuri’s attack contained a powerful Busoshosku Haki. Even if Kuzan himself using the Logia Devil fruit to elementalize, he still couldn’t dodge this attack.

“ICE AGE!”

In the face of the fist that was about to hit him, five icicles shot out from the hands of Kuzan, heading straight for the face of the Katakuri.

However, just like the blow, Kuzan’s ice pillar just flew out. The upper part of Katakuri’s body had already dodged to the side in advance. With his powerful foreknowledge of his Kenbunshoku Haki, Katakuri wasn’t afraid of such ordinary attacks.

While dodging, Katakuri went upward, swinging fist but did not stop. With Busoshoku Haki, he slammed his fist into Kuzan’s body.

If it were usual, Kuzan was able to avoid the attack of Katakuri. However, because he was seriously injured by the Pirate Garp in Loguetown, he hadn’t recovered completely, and his body’s reaction was half a beat slower than usual.

Although Kuzan was only half a beat slower than usual…. in this kind of battle, half a beat slower might mean losing the battle.

BOOM!

As Katakuri’s fist landed on Kuzan, after a loud bang, Kuzan flew backward directly to the Water 7 behind him.

“Admiral Kuzan!”

The marine, which was constantly entering the ice field to prepare for the attack with Sengoku and others, was in disbelief after seeing Kuzan, who was sent flying.

Although before this, Kuzan had already been defeated once in Loguetown, most of the marines hadn’t witnessed the defeat of the Admiral.

Admiral of the marine was a god-like existence for these marine forces. The three highest battle power against the pirates had always been invincible.

By now, this myth might be about to be shattered.

However, the good thing was that several giant marine forces on the pier did not step on the ice field.

BOOM!

However, the giant marine seemed to have underestimated the power of the Katakuri. Kuzan, who flew backwards to the pier, smashed into the giant marine with a huge force, knocking the giant down on the pier.

“What a powerful force…”

The marine who watched the giant fall was amazed. The strength of the opponent was beyond their imagination.

However, the good thing was, with the buffer of the giant marine, Kuzan didn’t suffer much. Although the corners of Kuzan’s mouth had oozed blood stains, the Admiral stood up and then attacked Katakuri.

However, after the experience just now, he also knew that the opponent should have a powerful Kenbunshoku Haki. In this case, Kuzan tried to pull the distance between the two, using the ability of Devil Fruit to attack Katakuri.

Under the swing of Kuzan’s hands, a large number of ice cones flew out from his hands, covering a large area where Katakuri was.

“Admiral Kuzan threw out a large number of ice cones in an attempt to cover the entire area where the other powerful pirate was.”

“Under such an attack, even if this pirate’s reaction speed is fast, it is impossible to dodge it!”

Although the reporter of the World Economy Newspaper holding the video bug seems very calm in explaining the movement of the battlefield, at this time, his hands have been flooded with sweat. If the giant had fallen towards this reporter, he would have been buried in the rubble.

In this reporter’s trembling heart introduction, suddenly, a large number of white orbs flew out of the area covered by the ice cone. In contact with the ice cone, these orbs wrapped up all these ice cones.

Under the drive of these white orbs, the ice cones had lost their forward force and smashed straight down toward the ground.

“What is that thing?!”

“The previous information only said that he could extend his arms and legs, but what kind of ability is this now?”

Seeing his attack fall short again, Kuzan also had some doubts about Katakuri’s ability before.

Previously, the marine learned from Crocodile’s introduction that Katakuri can stretch their arms and legs. The marine also thought that Katakuri could only control his body’s ability.

However, now it seemed that the information was not complete.

This guy had a strong Kenbunshoku Haki, and the power was similar to the Logia Devil Fruit!

‘Even if it is not Logia, this is definitely not the usual ability.’
