Chapter 640: Hong Lian's Despair!
Borsalino hadn't expected that his rare full-speed journey would lead him to such a baffling situation.
He had originally thought a tough battle was imminent.
But the Old Divine Dragon, seeing that it couldn't capture Kuzan, had simply decided not to fight anymore.
It even said it wanted to have a good talk with the World Government, and then directly turned around and left with Heimalin.
This put Borsalino in a very pleasant mood, as it saved him a lot of trouble~
However, now another headache-inducing problem lay before the two of them.
"Looks like there's nothing else going on, so I'll head back now, Kuzan~~"
Borsalino glanced at the various Warships around them, either Frozen on the Sea Surface or destroyed by the Battle Aftermath.
Besides that.
Onigumo, Tiger, Giyu Tomioka, and a group of other Marine Officers were also rushing over from a distance.
They were the lucky ones who had survived.
He believed that after counting the numbers later, they would know how many people were lost this time.
It could be said that more than half had died in the previous three-way battle.
The crucial part was that he was also responsible for taking these people back to the Star Gate Base, which would make the process even more troublesome.
So Borsalino quickly said his goodbyes to Kuzan.
He was about to use Photon Transformation to fly towards the sky that had recovered its clear blue color.
But unexpectedly, the latter grabbed his Arm.
"Arararara, don't be in such a hurry. Who knows if they'll come back for another look after you leave?"
The wry-mouthed Borsalino looked speechlessly at Kuzan, who was smiling broadly.
"Kuzan, I think I just saved you, didn't I?"
"I think so..."
Kuzan nodded readily in admission, smiling, "So you should stay and let me thank you."
"Later, you can help us melt this Ice. I'll personally catch you a few Danger Beasts. Their Meat doesn't taste much worse than Sea Kings, and they each have their own Characteristics~"
It turned out he was eyeing the other party's Flash, which had High Temperature and could also cause Explosions.
After all, there were still quite a few Battleships, Cruisers, and other vessels left here that could still be used.
As a Marine Admiral, he naturally had to try his best to bring back the assets belonging to Marine Headquarters.
But the problem was that the Ice-Ice Fruit Ability could only freeze water into Ice, but it couldn't melt Ice back into water.
"So that's how you repay kindness, Kuzan? How terrifying~~"
Borsalino looked surprised, as if he was seeing the other person anew.
But such mockery couldn't make Kuzan's strong hand loosen its grip.
Helpless, he could only stop his Element Transformation and stay, but his mouth didn't stop, continuing to tease.
"Next time, let Sakazuki save you. He's the professional for this kind of Matter~~"
"Arararara, perhaps next time I'll be the one saving you."
A moment later.
Borsalino flew high into the High Altitude again and used 'Yasakani no Magatama' once.
Moreover, he precisely controlled the Explosion range of each Light Bullet, melting most of the Frozen Sea Surface back into Seawater without damaging any Warships.
Only some scattered Ice Cubes remained, slowly drifting around.
Over the next few days, the World Government and the various Influence/Powers in this World did not engage in further Military Conflict.
The Main Combat Division led by Douglas Bullet remained firmly stationed near Mount Famu.
Charlotte Oven in the west also stopped pressuring the Alchemy Unit that had retreated into the Ptolla Region.
The Seas in the east were calm, with both sides' Fleets peacefully anchored in Port.
At the same time.
More than half of the Diplomatic Delegation previously sent by the Imperial Faction to the Star Gate Base had returned from the Titan World.
They were to report their observations and experiences, as well as several Requirements from the World Government, to the Imperial Higher-ups.
Additionally, the Alchemy Kingdom of Alkemi and the Shenhe Island Nation also began forming Diplomatic Teams to send to the Snow Mountain Valley where the Star Gate Base was located.
However.
No one expected that the Shenhe Island Nation had already written a Surrender Document for their Diplomat to take along.
They vowed to be the first Country to surrender to the World Government.
It goes without saying how much Yomi Tsukahara, Sword Saint and the Old Divine Dragon played a part in this.
However, this World was quite vast.
Coupled with the Efficiency restrictions of Transportation, it would take at least ten days to half a month for personnel from the various sides to travel back and forth once.
Therefore, the entire Imperial Arms World seemed to suddenly become very quiet.
【Roar————————】
However, located in the northernmost part of the Snow Region, completely within the Polar Circle of this Planet, inside a certain Snow Mountain near the Ice Sea,
At this moment, there were continuous Roars and angry shouts.
The entire expanse of white Snow Mountain was enveloped by a violent Blizzard.
The Temperature here was already close to eighty degrees below zero, fully meeting the standard for breath to freeze into frost.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
A giant Nine-Tailed White Fox, sixty meters tall, had scarlet Blood overflowing from the Corner of its Mouth.
With crimson eyes, it struggled to get up from the Frozen Earth covered in Cracks.
"How can there be such a Strong Human? Even stronger than that 'God of Lava' from before..."
Two days ago, it had just transmitted the Intelligence about Sakazuki to the other 'Deities' through its Clansmen, when this man wearing a White Greatcoat came knocking on its door.
Although there was another person with him at the time.
But due to the huge Gap in Aura, and the fact that the other person didn't make a move the entire time, its attention had been focused solely on the man.
Honestly.
Hong Lian was still puzzled about how these two had found it. It was inside a Mountain Cave at the time!
But what was most unbelievable was the other party's terrifying Strength.
He clearly didn't seem to possess any special Supernatural Power, yet its numerous Means were completely ineffective against him.
The fierce Blizzard and extreme Low Temperature seemed to not bother this guy at all, nor did they affect him in any way.
And the various Ice Attacks it created were either easily dodged by him or casually shattered with his Fists and feet.
Even when it was Frozen by its Cold Air a few times, he would directly shatter the Ice on his body and then laugh heartily before smashing a Fist towards it.
What was most infuriating was this.
With its massive body and the Strength of a Super Dangerous Beast, it had actually lost in a head-on Strength comparison!
Could you believe that?
Despite the Human's body being so tiny, he could repeatedly suppress it and give it a beating.
Even getting beaten was one thing, but why did it hurt so much?
It felt just like being constantly pricked by Sharpness needles into its Meat!
Hong Lian was now doubting if the Fur on its body and the Ice Crystals attached to it were fake.
Why did they seem so fragile, like thin snow?
"Ahhhhhhh, what exactly do you want, you bastard Human!!"
The Nine-Tailed White Fox roared hysterically at the figure who was steadily flying amidst the Wind and Snow, seemingly stepping on Air.
"Puhahaha, finally willing to Speaking properly with This Old Man? It would have been better to do this earlier, why bother getting beaten up first?"
Garp picked his nose, then threw his head back and laughed loudly.
This scene caused Muzan Kibutsuji, who was observing the Battle Situation from the peak of a Snow Mountain dozens of kilometers away using his Stare-Stare Fruit Ability, to shake his head with a Bitter Smile.
He truly didn't understand why such an unreliable person could possess such terrifying Combat Power and Talent.
"Listen up, Great Fox!"
"This Old Man is Garp, a Marine Headquarters Admiral under the World Government, ordered by the Command Department to Capture you Alive!"
"So you'd better behave yourself, otherwise This Old Man's Fist will land on you at any moment!"
Hong Lian naturally wouldn't agree upon hearing Garp's words. Angered, it straightened its upper body and roared madly, "Want to Capture This Venerable One Alive? Dream on!"
"Above the Sky, below the Underground, all things in the World, Frozen before This Venerable One, Roar————"
As its voice fell, a dazzling Blue Light bloomed before it, then transformed into a surging torrent that spread in all directions.
Everything swept by this Blue Light, even Snowflakes and Light, instantly Freeze.
Even Muzan Kibutsuji, who was extremely far away, was 'Frozen' in place.
"Puhahaha!"
But despite this, Hong Lian was horrified to find that Garp, whose entire skin had turned dark, laughed heartily again, completely unaffected.
"So this is what that brat Sakazuki called Freeze Time and Space? Seems it's nothing special!"
"Come, Great Fox, eat This Old Man's Fist!"
Hong Lian watched in Despair as Garp's Fist got closer and closer, its trembling Pupils already shrunk to pinpricks...
"Why?!"
