Chapter 183 – Luffy vs Kuzan 03.

[Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]
Third Person POV

Somewhere on sea, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

Explosions continued to echo in the sky above the sea of water and ice, both using Geppo and their Haki-coated swords, exchanging blows that created explosions with shock waves.

After clashing with Kuzan's ice sword, Luffy concentrated his flames in his free hand and punched towards the admiral, expanding his flames like a flamethrower. Kuzan responded by creating a massive ice dragon, which collided with the fire torrent in the air, causing a colossal explosion that lit up the entire sky, followed by a deafening roar, creating a cloud of steam above the sea.

The fight continued amid explosions in the midst of all that cold smoke.

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

The two combatants moved with superhuman speed and precision, exchanging blows in the middle of the sky. Luffy, with his speed enhanced by the Moa Moa no Mi, tried to overcome Kuzan's defense, while the Admiral, with his superior Haki, blocked and counter-attacked with icy precision.

The sound of their punches and crossed swords was like thunder, echoing across the island and making the ground tremble. This lasted for the next few hours as ice and flames were being created in the sky, the marines were waking up, but Luffy did not want to worry about reinforcements arriving in his fight, so he occasionally released his King's aura to knock out anyone who could report the situation to the superiors in the midst of this fight.

"Conqueror's Haki... I'm not surprised... but it's quite troublesome..." Kuzan commented, looking more injured from the fight.

"Don't pay attention to that," Luffy said, appearing in his phase form to continue the fight, equally injured, as fighting an admiral was quite problematic. The fight in these last hours was frenetic and it seemed they would fight for days at this rate, the sea below him was frozen and ablaze with steam creating a smoke curtain in front of the village.

"You have in your crew, Nico Robin, right?" As the blows continued against each other, Kuzan commented, making Luffy raise an eyebrow at this.

"That's true, Robin became a valuable companion even before we entered Alabasta," Luffy said, parrying Kuzan's blows.

"You should get rid of that woman," Kuzan mentioned, and Luffy just snorted.

"Why would I do that? She is quite precious and trustworthy."

"All the crews she joined were destroyed, yours will be no different," he said seriously, Luffy recognized that this was the reason for Kuzan finding him as in the original work.

"That may be true, but Robin has proven to be trustworthy and I believe in her, as do all my companions. We have a common goal and I am interested in the history of the lost century," Luffy commented with a smile, making Kuzan frown.

"You can't be serious, the World Government would never let you go free after discovering this ambition of yours."

"You don't understand, do you?" Luffy appeared, surprising Kuzan with his speed, and delivered a punch to the admiral's stomach, sending him flying hundreds of meters before stabilizing again.

Luffy looked at him with a smile and said, "This is my journey, my adventure, I'm a pirate and I do what I want, I don't care what the government thinks of me and my ambitions, I won't bow down to these organizations and no one." Luffy spoke confidently.

"You don't know what you're talking about, Garp's grandson," Kuzan still insisted.

"Let me tell you something, admiral. I've already killed a Tenryuubito in the East Blue, do you think I'm afraid of the government?" Luffy admitted, knowing that Kuzan wouldn't easily disclose this information and it wouldn't be long before the world also knew about it, so it was just a matter of time.

"You killed that Tenryuubito?" Kuzan wondered in shock, everything indicated that it was Monkey D. Dragon and wanted to capture Luffy to use him as a method of catching Luffy, ironically, Luffy was the author of the murder.

"Oh yes, if that doesn't prove to you that I'll keep Robin with me and I'm not afraid of any report you talk about her, I don't know what can convince you..." Luffy spoke firmly, he had Robin as his woman, how could he let someone speak ill of her.

"I understand..." Kuzan admitted.

The fight continued for another 2 hours with explosions as they each injured the other in a clash of Haki and elements. Luffy, breathing heavily but still full of energy, paused the fight and looked directly at Kuzan. "You know, Admiral, I think this could last for days. Don't you think it would be better to continue this at another time? I don't see either of us winning right now, and I have other things to do. I wanted to test my skills against you and I've seen what I'm capable of compared to a marine admiral," Luffy suggested, maintaining a slightly playful but serious tone.

"You have a point, Monkey D. Luffy," Kuzan responded in a weary tone, he wasn't here to defeat Luffy, just to see the rookie and talk to him about Robin, the girl he once spared. "This fight could indeed last for days, and we both have other responsibilities. I'll take your suggestion and let you go for now. But remember, this isn't a truce, just a postponement."

Luffy nodded, satisfied with Kuzan's response, as he sheathed Ace and Kuzan dissolved his ice sword. "Understood, Admiral. Let's leave our next meeting for another day. It will be a pleasure to face you again," Luffy said, with a confident smile.

Kuzan, acknowledging the end of the fight, retreated to the island behind all that steam surrounding them, and Luffy followed him to the city to look for Enel. Reaching Enel, who was still in a fierce clash with Smoker, who was visibly tired, despite not being injured, he was having difficulty breathing after hours.

"You really are a persistent mortal..." Enel mocked, and Smoker growled.

"Don't you get tired of talking that nonsense?!" The former captain, who was promoted to commodore after Alabasta, exclaimed.

"Enel, that's enough," Luffy called, drawing the attention of the Goro Goro no Mi user. "Let's get out of here," Luffy commented, and Kuzan was a bit away telling Smoker to stop as well.

Enel, somewhat reluctant to interrupt the fight, cast a last defiant look at Smoker before turning to Luffy. "Fine, demon. But I was having fun with the smoke man," he replied, with a tone of voice mixing frustration and excitement.

"Tsk," Smoker clicked his tongue hearing that.

"With that, we're leaving. Tell my grandfather and sister I miss them," Luffy said to Kuzan, but he didn't respond.

Knowing this was a confirmation, Luffy shot into the air and Enel followed him turning into a bolt of lightning, "We're letting him go?" Smoker commented, looking towards where Luffy and Enel had left.

"I have no choice, the pirate Monkey D. Luffy is at the level of an admiral..." Kuzan had to admit.

"What?! How can a rookie be at this level?!" Smoker exclaimed, alarmed by this information.

"I don't know, Garp's grandson is much more powerful than the reports showed. And Momonga had spoken of him as a Haki beginner, what I saw today was more than that, and it's only been 3 weeks since he left Alabasta..." Kuzan was thinking.

"I can understand that he's strong for defeating Shichibukais and a vice admiral, but to be at an admiral's strength... he can't be getting stronger in such a short time, can he?" Smoker spoke in a reluctant tone, not wanting to believe that someone could become so strong so quickly.

"I don't know... but it's strange... he's hiding something, beyond his growth, the reports from Garp and Momonga detail his explosion of strength and speed that not even his Haki of observation can identify... They are theorizing that Luffy is a dual user of Akuma no Mi and I'm starting to believe that after our fight," Kuzan admitted, looking up at the sky.

"Dual Akuma no Mi user?! Really?" Smoker couldn't believe it.

"So troublesome, his crew already has 4 mythical Zoan users and they all have techniques of their styles. If Garp's grandson continues to grow at this pace and he really is a dual Akuma no Mi user, I believe the sea will become very turbulent from now on," Kuzan spoke. If he thought Nico Robin would be the downfall of the crew, now he feared Luffy, the boy who didn't even seem to be 20 years old was a threat like he had never seen. The World Government and the Marines would be using all their forces to eliminate him with the information Kuzan had.

"What are we going to do now?" Smoker asked.

"I'm going back to the headquarters and report how I failed to capture Monkey D. Luffy," Kuzan yawned.

"Can I... go too?" Smoker commented.

"Hm? You want to go back there finally?" Kuzan asked, curious about his friend.

"I realized I'm too weak. I received training manuals from Garp, but I'm not ready to defeat the Straw Hats... I need to get stronger," Smoker admitted.

"That's good, we should return then," Kuzan said, and they began to wake the other marines and calm the town, before returning directly to the headquarters.

Meanwhile, in the air, Luffy and Enel were traveling through the sky towards their next destination, Jaya.

"Hm?!" Enel spoke beside Luffy.

"What is it?" Luffy looked at him curiously. Enel had a range of observation Haki that even Luffy envied with his fruit.

"Something is approaching us at high speed through the sky," Enel pointed out, and Luffy and he stopped in the air.

"That..." Luffy looked in the direction where Enel pointed. He might not identify the person approaching, but he had a very bad feeling about it.

On the other side, a blond-haired man wearing an astronaut helmet and exotic clothing like a Tenryuubito, holding a sword, flew towards Luffy and Enel through the air with Geppo at high speed. He had finally discovered the location of Straw Hat fighting against the Navy and headed in that direction.

"I finally found you," he said without a smile, just heading towards Luffy in the sky, like a Holy Knight, he exuded an aura of authority and threat. It was evident he was not there for a casual conversation; he had a clear goal, and Luffy was the target. After hunting him for weeks, he finally saw him in the distance with his advanced observation Haki.

Luffy had no idea he was being hunted by an elite of the World Government, and he would soon know what a Holy Knight could do after having fought for a few hours with a Navy admiral.
