Chapter 790 Just Hold On
Faced with such harsh accusations, Aokiji remained unmoved, responding in a tone so cold it seemed to freeze the air: "I cannot obey such a heinous military order!"
"You..." Faced with such sharp words, the Five Elders were speechless for a moment, completely unsure how to respond.
"Hey! If you want the Marines to fight to the death for you, then hurry up and remove that damn barrier!" Seeing that these high-ranking and powerful people remained silent, Aokiji could no longer suppress the raging anger burning in his heart.
At this moment, he was like a pack of snarling, arrogant, and reckless hellhounds, or a pack of starving wolves, pouncing on the Five Elders like a madman.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard these vicious dogs tried to break through that seemingly impregnable and rock-solid barrier, they could only end in failure.
Aokiji knew perfectly well that even for someone as powerful as the Five Elders, completely subduing this pack of ferocious dogs that had escaped from the depths of hell would be no easy task.
That's why they rely so heavily on that barrier to protect themselves.
"Hmph, do you really think you can stop us with just these tricks?" Izanbaron V. Nassshuro Sei's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cold, mocking smile.
"No matter how masterful your ice magic is, it's still just ordinary ice. How can it withstand the rolling lava from hell?"
Just as he finished speaking, something unexpected happened—inside the ice in the previously intact crack.
Suddenly, a crisp yet piercing "creak" sound rang out.
The thick ice began to crack.
The scalding lava was melting the ice at the top at an extremely fast speed, and waves of heat filled the entire square.
"They're really impressive!" Aokiji couldn't help but sneer, thinking to himself. The scene before him flashed through his mind like lightning, instantly pulling him back to that thrilling battle two years ago—the life-or-death duel with Akainu.
As a user of the Ice-Ice Fruit, Aokiji has always been confident in his abilities.
However, faced with Akainu's molten, magma-like power, he held his breath and refused to admit defeat.
At this moment, watching the molten lava continuously gushing out from the crack, Aokiji unhesitatingly unleashed his power once again, continuously injecting icy cold air into the crack.
The ice surface, which had been melted by the magma, was re-frozen at an astonishing speed under the influence of Aokiji's powerful ice energy.
The ice layer thickened rapidly, resembling an impregnable fortress, stubbornly resisting the surging magma below.
Just then, a figure appeared silently beside Aokiji like a ghost.
It was Ye Fei. He smiled slightly and said in a teasing tone, "Kuzan, you really have some skill in suppressing this hundreds of meters of magma all by yourself!"
Hearing this, Aokiji turned to Ye Fei speechlessly and replied irritably, "Hey, Ye Fei, now's not the time for sarcastic remarks!"
As he spoke, Aokiji continued to channel cold energy into the crack without stopping, not daring to slacken his efforts in the slightest.
He knew very well that if he paused even slightly, the scalding lava would likely break through the ice and cause unimaginable consequences.
Ye Fei, however, appeared remarkably calm and composed. He shrugged leisurely and replied with a smile, "Oh, you mean you want me to take action? Don't worry, I know you can hold out for a long time. After all, you fought that guy Akainu for ten days and ten nights! This little scene shouldn't be a problem for you, right?"
After saying that, Ye Fei remained standing in the same spot, showing no sign of wanting to help.
"Hey! What are you thinking? Aren't you going to end this chaos right now?"
Ye Fei's indifferent yet calm attitude finally made Qingzhi unable to suppress his inner anxiety any longer.
You have to understand, he brought hundreds of thousands of his men with him on this mission! Are they just going to stand by and watch them fall one by one under the enemy's blade?
"Hmph, as long as you can successfully suppress this place, there won't be too much of a problem. Those vicious hellhounds up there will soon be completely wiped out!" Ye Fei remained calm, simply responding with this sentence before quickly shifting his gaze to the wide plaza.
