Chapter 139 Ross Vs Aokiji (2/2)
In the past, he relied on the power of Distortion Fruit to constantly suppress the enemy. This time his power was suppressed from the opposite direction and not only his fruit ability but also his body, Haki or speed, he was completely suppressed.
The only thing that can barely be said to be advantageous is the flexibility of the Distortion Fruit.
“Ice burst!”
Ross flicked his arm and the frozen traces peeled off inch by inch under the action of the power of distortion. Then he shouted angrily, and power of distortion suddenly poured into the frozen earth.
Bang Rumble!
The whole earth burst into pieces in an instant, with cracks hundreds of meters in length and width appearing. They broke apart rapidly and turned into huge blocks of ice and rocks and they rushed towards Aokiji in the sky.
At the same time, Ross flew away from Aokiji and into the other direction without looking back, His purpose was still to escape.
Even someone reckless and stupid like Luffy chose to run away when he and his crew were faced with an Admiral on Sabaody Archipelago because he realized the strength gap between them, So there is no need to mention Ross who was aware of the difference between their strength from the start.
“Huh…”
Aokiji looked at the cracked earth and the huge ice and rubble flying toward him. He breathed softly and raised his hand against the coming rubble.
Kāchā! Kāchā!
His arm instantly turned into ice and spread all the way, freezing all the huge ice and rubble in mid-air, then he pushed the frozen rubble hard and made it a kilometer long and then he sent it away towards Ross.
Ross had no idea of confronting him. He continued to run away. Soru and Geppo and Gravity Distortion were all brought to their extreme. His entire figure was like an arrow on the ground, lashing into the distance.
However.
Aokiji is still faster than him.
As he dashed forward, the ground ahead gave a sudden bang and a larger wall of ice rose again, blocking his escape route.
Ross tried to fly upwards as before, but the huge ice block, nearly a kilometer long, had fallen like hell, blocking all directions of escape.
“…”
Looking at the size of the ice, Ross slightly gritted his teeth and slammed his foot on the ground and the Distortion broke down as he drilled into the bottom.
Bang!
The huge ice fell, wrapped in a terrifying impact and landed on the ground. Although Ross did not bear it head-on, the impact still penetrated the surface and hit him below.
Ross ignited the power of distortion to the extreme, resisting this part of the impact, but when it was blocked, Aokiji appeared above the surface of the earth and the power of ice plunged into the earth.
Kāchā! Kāchā!
Ross withstood the impact of a huge icefall but could no longer completely withstand Aokiji’s freezing power and he was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture.
At the same time, the Underground space created by the power of distortion collapsed and the whole earth collapsed suddenly and the crushed ice and gravel from above crashed down.
“Almost.”
Aokiji’s frozen body slowly returned to its normal state, breathing out a cold breath, looking coldly down at the ice and perceiving Ross’s state.
One second… two seconds… three seconds…
Five seconds later, Aokiji’s face changed slightly as a crack suddenly appeared on the ice like a spider’s web spreading in all directions.
Ross, who was covered in blood, rushed out of the Underground. His body was covered with frost everywhere. It was like a pedestrian coming out of a snowstorm. Without frost, there were a lot of scars and blood was spilled from the wound.
“Still alive.”
Aokiji looked at Ross with a solemn face and breathed out a cold breath again.
Ross’s body was scarred and there were also hidden injuries in his body that were overloaded with the power of distortion. He gasped fiercely and his eyes sparkled with inexplicable light.
In this depressing situation, he suddenly laughed and his lips opened a little.
“Oh, how could I die without turning the world upside down?”
