----------
"It won't be enough to kill him, but..." A cold light flashed in Ikki's eyes, "I still have to teach him a lesson. Do it, Robin!"
After the words fell, the corners of Nico Robin's mouth suddenly rose.
The violent slashing in her hand stopped imdiately, and she took a step back under Vergo's puzzled gaze.
But the next mont, his eyes widened.
Nico Robin held a sword in her right hand in front of her, and a strange aura began to hover around her.
"That's... the technique Admiral Aokiji once ntioned?!"
Vergo opened his mouth, and when he reacted, he imdiately wanted to rush forward and stop Nico Robin.
However, he was still a step too slow after all.
"Scatter, Senbonzakura."
After the cold words fell, the long sword in Nico Robin's hand turned into hundreds of cherry blossom petals, wrapping Vergo's entire body.
Even when Vergo waved the weapon in his hand, he couldn't separate the flowing cherry blossom blades.
In desperation, he could only choose to continue strengthening his Armant Haki, trying to use his defensive power to stop Nico Robin's Zanpakutō.
Slice! Slice! Cut!
A heart-wrenching sound ca from Vergo who was wrapped in cherry blossoms.
In less than a minute, streams of blood flowed out from under the petals of the flying flowers.
Obviously, even Vergo's defense was unable to withstand Nico Robin's current Senbonzakura power.
"Ikki, stop it!"
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Onigumo picked up his remaining weapons and wanted to step forward.
It's just that even if Vivi didn't use Absolute Zero, if she wanted to break through quickly, even an elite Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral like Onigumo found it very difficult.
"Ikki, please, Hina begs you, please stop."
Hina grabbed Ikki's arm and said anxiously.
Ikki glanced at Hina with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Although Sadi-chan and Tashigi were held back by Nami and Nojiko, Ikki could still feel the anxious eyes from the two of them, which were as anxious as Hina's.
"That's enough." Ikki shook his head, his eyes falling on Nico Robin. "That's probably enough - just make it impossible for the guy to leave the hospital bed in a short period of ti."
Hearing this, Robin nodded, and after giving Kalifa a look, she waved the handle of the sword in her right hand.
In an instant, the cherry blossom petals that originally surrounded Vergo began to gather quickly, re-forming their original Zanpakutō appearance.
"Damn... damn it!"
Vergo exhaled a breath and stared at Nico Robin fiercely.
At this mont, although his body still had skin that was darkened by Armant Haki, more of his skin had been cut by the sharp cherry blossom blades.
Up close, Vergo looked like a bloody man.
However, Onigumo and others breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Vergo's injuries looked serious, they were just superficial wounds.
With their Marine Vice Admiral constitution, he only needed to rest for a day or two to fully recover.
Especially Vergo who could skillfully use Marine Six Styles.
But at this mont, a sudden sound rang out.
"Katen Kyōkotsu, Takaoni!"
"Black!"
Whoosh!
Behind Vergo, the sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out.
Vergo frowned, feeling the weak wind behind him. He didn't choose to move, but stood still and planned to use his Armant Haki to defend.
At the sa ti, his eyes were fixed on Ikki and Nico Robin, just in case they continued to attack.
'This guy Ikki said he would make unable to get out of bed in a short period of ti.'
'The current injury isn't enough... huh?!'
Vergo's eyes widened and he felt a sharp pain coming from his liver, then he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He lowered his head and saw a black blade protruding from his chest.
"I was stabbed...? How is that possible?"
Vergo opened his mouth and wanted to turn his head and look behind him in disbelief.
There, pretty Kalifa was holding Zanpakutō Katen Kyōkotsu with a smile on her face.
To be precise, she looked at the red blood all over Vergo's body and the small area of exposed black skin with a smile.
Although Vergo's defense was very strong, Katen Kyōkotsu's 'Takaoni' had a special ability.
Kalifa was wearing a black won's suit, and most of her body was black.
And only a small part of Vergo's black color was exposed now.
Under the strange ability of Katen Kyōkotsu, he would naturally be seriously injured.
"Fortunately, you're still alive. I'm not very proficient in this ability yet. Killing you would go against Ikki's original intention."
Kalifa glared at Vergo mockingly and pulled out the Zanpakutō.
Vergo, who lost his support, could only fall to the ground in pain.
"Vergo!"
Onigumo quickly passed Vivi and ran to Vergo.
After seeing his injuries, Onigumo's already ugly face beca even uglier.
"Ikki, how dare you!"
"Haha, why don't I dare? I said, I was just defending myself."
Ikki waved his hand and continued:
"Onigumo, you can report this matter to the Marines' Sengoku. In my opinion, this matter is purely because you're causing trouble for us. Tell Sengoku that I will complain to him about your attack on us."
After saying that, Ikki pulled Hina and walked forward with his other crewmates past Onigumo and Vergo.
Naturally, the Marines along the way didn't dare to stop Ikki and the others.
After all, Onigumo didn't give the order, and there was no need for them to throw their lives away.
"Bastard!"
The angry roar of Onigumo spread far and wide.
'Onigumo Eight Sword Style - this can be considered a swordsmanship school.'
'However, it doesn't feel right to use swords with my hair.'
Ikki stared at his personal panel, hesitating whether to use the [Onigumo Kendo School] that Vivi got after defeating Onigumo.
'The Life Return that cos with it is a good thing.'
'Unexpectedly, after practicing the Six Styles for so long, I learned this ability from Onigumo.'
'However, this eight-sword style is no longer needed.'
Ikki made up his mind and closed his personal panel.
At the sa ti, the "Onigumo Eight Sword Style" swordsmanship experience gained by Vivi was distributed to her.
Vivi, who was walking in front of Ikki, blinked with confusion on her face.
But soon, she looked at Ikki beside her.
She understood that only Ikki could achieve this ability.
"It's your freedom to use your hair or not to use your sword. But with the swordsmanship of Water Breathing and Zanpakutō Sode no Shirayuki, I don't think you need to use it."
"But the Life Return in it is a good thing. Maybe it can help you learn Geppo and other Marine Six Styles."
Ikki smiled and patted Vivi on the shoulder, then turned to look at Hina and Tashigi on the other side of him, who had their heads lowered and remained silent.
"Are you two angry with ? Don't worry, Vice Admiral Vergo isn't dead - he hasn't suffered any fatal injuries. He just has to stay in the hospital bed for several months."
"You two shouldn't bla for acting in reasonable self-defense, should you? Having said that, even if you two bla , I will still make the decision I just made when encountering such a thing in the future."
Hearing this, Hina instantly raised her head and glared at Ikki.
"You! Hmph!"
Hina turned her head directly and looked away.
"I don't bla you, Ikki. Those two Marines went too far."
At this ti, Sadi-chan stepped forward and spoke in a very supportive tone.
"I understand, that's why I said unlike Hina and Tashigi, you didn't bla , Sadi-chan."
"Hehe, how do you want to reward ? Do you want to give a good weapon?"
"You're dreaming!"
On the side, Tashigi turned her head and looked at Ikki and Sadi-chan who were laughing and playing, with a trace of envy in her eyes.
She took a deep breath, walked up to Ikki and said:
"Ikki, let's find a way to contact Captain Smoker. Let him help us talk to the superiors about this matter. I'm worried that having Vice Admiral Vergo and Vice Admiral Onigumo report to the top may cause misunderstandings."
"I see." Ikki nodded slightly. "So Tashigi, you're concerned about - I'm very happy. But you don't have to worry too much."
"Your Fleet Admiral Sengoku isn't a fool. He and I are old acquaintances, and he should know who is under his command. It's not good to explain these things too much."
Ikki patted Tashigi's shoulder with his other hand to express comfort, and looked up at the group of fish-n walking anxiously across from them.
The fish-man soldiers, led by the tall shark fish-man, quickly ca to Ikki and others.
"Are you the humans who just had a conflict with the Marines at the port of Fish-Man Island? You have a conflict with the Marines - are you pirates?"
The tall shark fish-man asked Ikki with a frown.
"We're not pirates. On the contrary, the Marines and I still cooperate. Your Excellency should be the eldest prince of Fish-Man Island."
Ikki laughed.
"You know ?"
"How could I not recognize you? After all, you're the son of the king who rules this country. Just in ti, I have sothing to talk to your royal family about."
"You're looking for the royal family? What's the matter?"
"Actually, it's this thing."
Ikki raised his hand and pointed behind himself.
There, Vivi was standing holding the frozen body of Vander Decken IX.
"This is... an ice sculpture?"
Fish-Man Island Prince Shark Star looked at the ice sculpture strangely, and then at Ikki with an expression like 'you're playing with .'
"Look carefully - who does this ice statue look like?"
"Who does it look like?" Shark Star looked intently, and his eyes suddenly widened in the next mont. "This is Vander Decken IX? Why did you make his ice sculpture?"
"It's not an ice sculpture - it's his body frozen into ice."
"Corpse?"
"That's right. If you don't believe it, you can check it carefully. I rember that your country spent a lot of money to offer a bounty on this guy - the bounty should not be small."
"If it really is that bastard's body, the bounty will certainly not be small. Your Excellency, please wait a mont - I want to confirm it first."
Shark Star nodded solemnly to Ikki and quickly ca to Vivi.
A pair of eyes looked up and down at the ice sculpture in front of him.
Vivi raised her hand and pressed it on Sode no Shirayuki at the right ti, controlling the ice to slowly lt.
Soon, the body of Vander Decken IX, turned purple and hard due to the ice, appeared in front of Prince Shark Star.
"This... is this really his body?"
Shark Star grabbed the body of Vander Decken IX with an extrely complicated expression.
He seed happy and surprised at the sa ti.
After a while, he ca to his senses and approached Ikki solemnly.
"Your Excellency, you have brought the body of Vander Decken IX. Then you are our friend on Fish-Man Island. Please co with - I think my father will be happy to entertain you."
"We will also give the bounty to you in Ryugu Palace."
"No problem." Ikki nodded.
Although Ikki would rather see the Poneglyph, he didn't mind visiting Ryugu Palace first.
Shark Star agreed when he saw Ikki, and enthusiastically guided Ikki and others.
At the sa ti, he also took out his Den Den Mushi and started contacting his family mbers in Ryugu Palace.
On the other side, Marine Headquarters.
"What? You had a conflict with Ikki? The masked woman next to him even injured Vergo? Why? Where's Vergo - how is he now?"
Sengoku held the Den Den Mushi microphone in his hand, and his face instantly beca serious because of Onigumo's report.
On the side, Aokiji and Tsuru, who were also in the office, looked at each other. They both noticed the masked woman in Onigumo's report.
"Vergo was seriously injured. Although it's not life-threatening, he may need a long ti to recover."
Onigumo looked at Vergo who was being treated by the dics, and said with an ugly expression.
"As long as there's no danger! Tell why Ikki's partner took action."
Sengoku's eyes were extrely serious - he had to be serious when it ca to the powerful Ikki.
At the sa ti, he was also quite confused.
He had just sent three people to study with Ikki.
There was no reason for Ikki to be at odds with the Marines.
"Actually... that's what happened, Fleet Admiral Sengoku."
Onigumo was silent for a while, then told everything about himself, Vergo, Ikki and others.
Sengoku's brows beca tighter and tighter as he listened.
