Chapter 132
"Ah, are young people nowadays so rude that they don't even want to address me as the general."
Aokiji was lying on a beach chair, wearing an eye mask, resting his head on his arms, looking lazy.
Zhang Lie didn't know what to say when he heard this. The first thing he thought of was whether he should reveal his identity as an undercover agent, but that would make him seem too unprofessional, so he had to bite the bullet and say:
"I'm a pirate, why should I respect you, a navy? Admirals and such can scare... They can't scare me. Why are you here?"
"As for me, of course I was bored, so I came out for a walk." Seeing this, Aokiji suddenly wanted to tease him:
"Zhang Lie was born in the East China Sea. When he first went to sea, he was known as a traitor to the navy. After that, his strength has been rising all the way until now, he has reached a bounty of 300 million. Now that I have met him, I can't just pretend that I didn't see him. It's your bad luck."
Zhang Lie's hair stood on end on the spot. He put on the forbidden magic armor on both hands and used the second gear directly, preparing to struggle first and then reveal his identity.
Just as he got into position, he felt an extremely dangerous warning from behind him, and Aokiji quietly turned into an ice sculpture, using his ability without him noticing.
Zhang Lie turned around and attacked without hesitation, and the forbidden magic arm armor hit the target, but the figure behind him was also a piece of ice.
Aokiji completed the transfer of the entity in an instant, and re-condensed his body not far away, and commented slowly:
"You are very fast, strong, and sensitive. You are not far from fully awakening your observation Haki. Also, the arm armor on your hand is inlaid with seastone, right? It's really dangerous."
""Don't joke, you are a general, how can you be in danger?" Zhang Lie complained, feeling that Aokiji was possessed by Kizaru at this moment. Aokiji slowly exhaled a breath of cold air, and it was obvious that he would make a move next:"You are done, it is my turn next."
An ice spear appeared in Aokiji's hand, and the figure suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Lie, and the speed seemed to be teleportation.
However, this was still within the range of Zhang Lie's response in the second gear. He did not dare to catch the ice spear with his hands, and swung out a sword to block the ice spear.
""Oh? This force is stronger than I expected." Aokiji said in a teasing tone, and then pressed down harder, wanting to test how strong it was.
Zhang Lie felt that the force from the ice spear was getting stronger and stronger, and soon he couldn't bear it. Obviously, even if it was a competition of pure strength, Aokiji was far superior to him.
In fact, this was as it should be. After all, he was an admiral. Without such a strong physique, how could he fight for ten days and ten nights?
Zhang Lie hurriedly exerted force on his feet and retreated. At this time, he was full of flaws, but Aokiji obviously had no intention of chasing him.
"Yes, you can let me use 40% of my strength. You have no rivals in this paradise. No wonder you dare to recruit the former CP9 wanted criminals."
After saying this, Qingzhi waited leisurely for Zhang Lie to land, and then did not make any further moves. Instead, he spread his hands and said:
"Okay, now it's your turn, I'll defend."
This sentence made veins pop out on Zhang Lie's forehead. He hadn't been looked down upon like this for a long time. Although the opponent was a general, he still got furious.
"I'm not playing games with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Lie rushed forward quickly, but suddenly changed direction when he was one step away from Aokiji, and kept flashing around.
Aokiji still didn't move, and didn't even move his eyes, as if he was completely unprepared:
"Are you planning to rely on speed? I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. In front of Observation Haki, unless your speed reaches the level of Borsalino, it will be useless."
Sure enough, Zhang Lie also found that no matter how he changed direction, it was useless, because Aokiji had no response at all, so he stopped doing these useless things and acted decisively.
Aokiji is a natural type. He doesn't have Armament Haki now, and Ghost Cut doesn't work much, so he can only rely on Forbidden Magic.
Zhang Lie approached Aokiji again. This time he didn't change direction again, but used the second gear state with all his strength to shave. Even he himself couldn't fully master this speed.
With a punch, Aokiji was smashed to pieces on the spot. Zhang Lie didn't stop his action. His body turned immediately and attacked again at the place where Aokiji's body was condensed.
Aokiji's body had just condensed half when Zhang Lie arrived, but he was suddenly wrapped in an extremely cold force, and even the hot blood in his body cooled down.
Aokiji slowly condensed his whole body at this time:"Who told you that condensing your body is a flaw? It's very convenient to activate abilities in this state, right?"
"You didn't block it just now, you dodged it." Zhang Lie said to Aokiji in a fit of anger, and he regretted it right after he finished speaking. If he could move, he would have wanted to slap himself twice.
But Aokiji didn't refute it, because Zhang Lie had indeed exceeded his expectations before.
Because the two were very close when they fought, he calculated at the first time that he would not have time to raise his hand to block it, so his body directly elementalized to avoid the effect of seastone in advance.
"You are right, your speed is indeed very fast, which is beyond the scope of the park, but you were able to succeed only because I was not prepared in advance, otherwise you would not have been able to succeed"
"You are right." Zhang Lie resolutely admitted his mistake. There was nothing he could do. The gap between the two was too big.
"But you are a navy admiral, and I am just a small pirate with a bounty of 300 million. We are not at the same level. It is too low for you to compare with me."
But at this time, Aokiji suddenly released his ability. Before Zhang Lie could figure out why he let him go, he heard Aokiji say:
"You are not only a pirate with a bounty of 300 million, but also a captain of the Navy Headquarters and the captain of SWORD."
"???!!!"Zhang Lie's expression changed from questioning to shock, but he quickly reacted,"You are in charge of the Naval Intelligence Department and SWORD, right?"
"You are not stupid. I am the commander of SWORD, the highest person in charge of the intelligence department. You and Mott are my subordinates."Aokiji admitted it directly, but he also began to question Zhang Lie.
"Since you are not stupid and have figured out the enemy this time, why do you have to deal with it alone?"
Zhang Lie knew that the matter of the Golden Lion was exposed, but he didn't want to give up this huge profit:
"General, don't worry, I can handle it."
Aokiji was confused:"The competition just now was not only to assess your strength, but also to let you realize the gap between you and the real strong. Even so, you don't plan to solve it by yourself?"
"General, you may be wrong. Shiki is not the super strong man he used to be. Give me some time, I can deal with him, and I don't have to fight him head-on."
Aokiji circled Zhang Lie three times, looked him up and down, and finally walked back to the beach chair and put on the blindfold again:
"Since you have already realized it and are so confident, then go for it. But I hope you won't be too stubborn. There are very few navies with great potential in the future, not to mention that you are related to Beehive Island."
A huge joy rushed to Zhang Lie's head, and he immediately stood at attention and saluted in a very non-standard way:
"Yes, Admiral, I promise to put an end to this legendary pirate!"
