Chapter 181. Luffy vs Kuzan 01.

[Chapter Size: 2100 Words.]
Third Person POV

Somewhere, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Enel followed Luffy to various islands in the region, destroying smuggling bases, which didn't take long for this information to reach important ears.

"What are you saying?!" Doflamingo spoke, furrowing his brow at this.

"Lord Doflamingo! Our bases are being attacked! And it's not just Luffy, the user of the lightning logia is with him!" A subordinate spoke into the den den mushi in desperation, one didn't need to be a big figure to know what a logia could do and identify its properties.

"The lightning logia?" A voice was heard next to Doflamingo, sounding displeased.

"It seems we've found our target." Doflamingo said, they had been looking for Luffy for a while and thought he had gone to the center of the grandline, but it seems they were wrong and Luffy was hiding somewhere in that area and decided to show up now.

"Shall we go, are you leading the way?" Jack asked, since Doflamingo could move through the air.

"I'll go to Jaya and wait for you there, I don't want to fight against the straw hats and the thunder logia user at the same time. It doesn't seem smart."

Doflamingo flew into the sky and Jack with his crew followed in that direction.

Meanwhile, on one of the islands Luffy attacked, two marine ships docked at the port.

"It seems Mugiwara created chaos here..." Smoker said in a dark tone.

"Hina thinks we should capture this pirate soon." The pink-haired woman said beside him while smoking a cigarette.

"And this story of a lightning user?" Tashigi commented beside.

"What do you think?" Smoker turned to the person behind them as they looked at the destruction in a specific building on the island.

"If it's really a lightning logia, its user has been without the power for hundreds of years, so it will be quite troublesome." Kuzan commented with his cold breath.

"Hina finds it strange, why did they attack just this building? And more than 5 islands were targeted in the same way..."

"This was a smuggling depot, a place used by the underworld to trade illegal weapons and slaves." Kuzan said looking at the place, as an admiral, he had to have this information memorized, the marines knew about it, but since it's under the name of a shichibukai, they couldn't act so easily.

"That's terrible..." Tashigi commented.

The marines were patrolling the area, looking for survivors and removing some debris, they found drugs and weapons in the destroyed structures, even leading to the arrest of some of the local guards.

"At least, Garp's grandson didn't destroy the city." Kuzan admitted, but soon felt something with his observation haki and looked up at the sky.

"Anyway, let's capture, mugiwaras is a half-billion criminal." Smoker said.

"Hina just needs to find him." Hina said and Fullbody next to her looked with hearts in his eyes at his superior. No one had noticed the admiral's behavior behind them who continued to look at the sky, until he decided to speak.

"That's not necessary, he's already found us." Kuzan commented and at that moment a meteor fell from the sky in front of them.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!*

"What is this?!" Tashigi commented, shielding her eyes with her sword from the debris created by the explosion.

"Look who's here..." A voice came from the debris and Smoker looked surprised, already recognizing the owner of the voice.

Hina and Tashigi prepared for whoever had arrived and Kuzan frowned, not expecting that this pirate would take the action to attack him so openly.

Luffy emerged from the debris with his cape flying in the wind and walked towards the marines with a smile on his face, it was no surprise to him while everyone looked scared at the pirate as he walked towards Admiral Kuzan.

"Hello, frozen admiral." Luffy announced without losing his smile and lightning struck beside him, Enel arrived soon after, looking at the others with his usual arrogance.

"Monkey D. Luffy, a 500 million pirate and Garp's grandson..." Kuzan commented seeing this figure for the first time.

"Look Smoker, as always, good to see you. And who might this lady be, would you like to go out with me sometime, miss?" Luffy greeted everyone and joked, he wasn't serious with Hina, but it was an opportunity to flirt with the enemy.

"Hina doesn't go out with pirates." She said. Luffy had no reaction to this and looked to the side seeing Fullbody as a subordinate of Hina as Tashigi with Smoker.

"Fullbody, it's been a while, decided to leave EastBlue?" Luffy commented and Fullbody had veins on his face, "You damn pirate!" He yelled.

"Are these people strong?" Enel asked, still trying to find someone powerful since he came down with Luffy, but they all seemed weak.

"Not all of them, that big guy over there can easily defeat you, I want you to take care of those two." Luffy pointed to Hina and Smoker.

"Mugiwara, you will be arrested!" Smoker said, looking at Luffy.

"First, take care of Enel, he's a logia like you, while I'll fight the admiral, I want to see if he lives up to his reputation, you're okay with that, aren't you, Admiral Kuzan?" Luffy commented with a smile.

The marines around them were surprised to see Luffy walking fearlessly and challenging an admiral, as it represented the highest power of the navy.

"Did I hear that right..."

"This is really a bit disconcerting..."

"Did that pirate really come to challenge the admiral?"

"What are we going to do?"

Luffy continued walking towards them, even passing by Smoker and Hina who had furrowed brows as the pirate treated them like nothing more than air. He continued, but no one stopped him until he was face to face with Kuzan.

"You admirals are really tall, mega admiral, how is my sister doing in Marinefort? I hope she's getting strong, I miss her already." Luffy commented nonchalantly while looking at the man who, even at 210 cm, was still not taller than an admiral of 266 cm.

Kuzan observed Luffy with a calm expression, though his eyes showed a hint of curiosity. He didn't seem surprised by Luffy's direct and challenging approach, but there was an implicit caution in his look.

"Your sister is doing well. She's becoming a strong and capable sailor with the training my teacher is giving her and with her grandfather also taking care of her," Kuzan responded, maintaining his serene tone.

Luffy laughed. "That's good to hear. I knew she would be in good hands. So, Admiral Kuzan, ready for a little confrontation?"

Kuzan raised an eyebrow. "You're quite an upfront person. But know that I will not hold back just because you are Garp's grandson."

Luffy nodded, still smiling. "I wouldn't expect anything less from an admiral. But before we start, I have a question."

"What is it?" Kuzan asked, his expression still relaxed.

"What do you think of the current state of the navy? Are they really doing the right thing, fiercely pursuing pirates and you turn a blind eye to criminal shichibukais out there?" Luffy asked, his voice carrying a more serious tone than usual.

The people beside fell silent in this conversation, not even breathing as Luffy talked with the admiral. Kuzan paused for a moment, reflecting on the question. "The navy has its flaws, like any organization. I may not always agree with the decisions made by superiors, but that doesn't change the fact that pirates like you are a threat to the world."

"Really, you execute any order like a good soldier, don't you? Is that what happened with Ohara?" Luffy commented, and the atmosphere immediately turned cold.

Luffy and Kuzan stared at each other, each assessing the other. Kuzan, without any sudden movement, caused the ground under Luffy's feet to start freezing. The ice quickly spread, rising up Luffy's feet. Surprisingly, Luffy made no move to escape or counter-attack. He remained still, allowing the freezing to cover his entire body.

As the ice enveloped Luffy, turning him into a frozen statue, a calm and confident expression remained on his face in front of the admiral. It was as if Luffy had control and confidence in his ability to escape from that situation at any moment.

Kuzan, observing the scene, showed no surprise. His eyes reflected a mix of respect and curiosity. "You didn't even move... do you really think you can escape from my ice?" said Kuzan, his voice tranquil.

The spectators around, watched in silence, intrigued and a little anxious. They knew Luffy was not an ordinary pirate and that his abilities were extraordinary from the newspaper reports. The question was: how would he respond to Admiral Kuzan's ice power?

Luffy, encased in ice, remained motionless for a brief moment, but then a dramatic change occurred. Suddenly, purple flames erupted from his body, shattering the ice with an intense and vibrant explosion. The flames melted the ice at an impressive speed, freeing Luffy from his frozen prison in milliseconds and sending steam in all directions.

Before Kuzan could react, Luffy was already in motion. With a surprising speed that broke the ground beneath him, he rushed towards the Admiral. His fist, wrapped in a dense black aura of Armament Haki, was launched towards Kuzan with brutal force.

Kuzan, sensing the imminent threat, quickly went into a defensive stance, but even with his abilities, he wasn't fully prepared for the impact of Luffy's punch. The punch hit him with overwhelming power, sending him flying backward like a rocket.

Kuzan soared through the air, crossing the space of the port, and crashing into the sea with a loud splash. Upon hitting the water, he caused the entire sea in that small area to surge. A moment later, the sea began to freeze, and in an instant, a vast area of the sea transformed into a frozen, crystalline field.

The scene left everyone present astonished. The strength of Luffy, capable of sending a Navy Admiral flying with a single punch, and the subsequent reaction of the sea freezing, were testimonies to the extraordinary level of power of Admiral Kuzan.

The marines, shocked by the turn of events, quickly regrouped. They surrounded Luffy at the port, with their weapons pointed directly at him. The tension was palpable in the air, and the sound of triggers being cocked echoed around the area. The eyes of every marine were fixed on the pirate, ready to shoot at any sign of threat.

Luffy was hit by bullets, which simply did not penetrate his body, stopping upon contact with his skin. "You know that won't work against me, right?" Luffy commented, looking around while remaining calm. He turned to Enel, who was watching everything with his usual expression of arrogance. "Enel," Luffy called, drawing the attention of the former God of Skypiea. "I need you to deal with these marines. But remember, I don't want you to kill anyone."

Enel nodded in agreement. He then raised his hands, and an electrical aura began to form around him. With a swift movement, he released a series of controlled electrical discharges towards the marines. The discharges were powerful enough to incapacitate the soldiers without causing fatal damage.

The marines, caught off guard by the speed and precision of Enel's attacks, began to fall one after the other, struck by the electricity. The gunfire stopped, and weapons fell from the hands of the unconscious marines.

At that moment, a force emerged in the air to confront Enel, only Smoker and Hina remained in combat and went to face Enel. At that moment, Kuzan surfaced above the frozen sea, his figure emerging from the icy waters. He had a thin line of blood running down his forehead, a clear sign of the impact of the blow that Luffy had struck.

"He's more skilled in haki than Momonga had detailed in his report..." he commented, looking at the blood on his forehead, yet his expression was calm and lazy.

Luffy wasted no time and leaped into the air, leaving the port behind and landing smoothly in front of him, sporting a confident smile. "So, frozen admiral," Luffy said, looking straight into Kuzan's eyes, "our fight is about to begin."
