This was the first time Akainu felt so humiliated since he became an Admiral, and it was even worse than when he was a Vice Admiral.
Back when he fought with Vongola Family, he still stood a chance even though his opponent was strong. But when he was facing Byakuran now, his guts told him that he had no chance of winning!
From the beginning of the battle, he didn't hold back at all. Even if he was an Admiral, he had to be careful. How could he block his attack with one finger and even sent him flying?
From this fact alone, it was clear that his opponent was at least an Admiral-calibre combatant.
But it wasn't like it was impossible for him to win. As one of the strongest Admiral, Akainu didn't think he'd lose, even if his opponent was Vongola Primo himself! Of course, that was nothing but his own assumption. He would only know the truth after they fought. There weren't that many people who understood Giotto's power in the first place.
"You will pay for your arrogance, Byakuran! I will arrest you today at all cost!"
The pressure that Akainu exuded intensified. Several Dark Hounds were formed. In order to improve his strength, he had not slacked off in the slightest during these past few years. He had been honing his Devil Fruit ability. Vongola Family's unique animal that exuded Dying Will Flame also gave him an inspiration. That was why he shaped his magma to resemble an animal and control it.
Every single one of these Magma Hounds bared their teeth. What dripped from their mouths was not saliva but hot magma. They stared fiercely at Byakuran, as if they were going to tear him apart in the next second.
"I was planning to use this against Vongola Family. I didn't expect that I have to use it on a guy like you today. Although you are not famous, you're certainly strong."
Akainu revealed a serious look. He developed this move to deal with Vongola Family, and he certainly didn't mind using it against Byakuran. Although he hadn't heard of Millefiore Family before, this young man called Byakuran deserved his trump card!
Someone who could block the Dark Hound with one finger was definitely one of the top powerhouses in the New World!
If Akainu knew that Byakuran was Vongola Primo's double, he would probably think that his judgment was absolutely correct...
"What a cute little animal. What do you want to do with them? Don't tell me you actually want them to bite me? And you actually made so many... Haha, why don't you change your name to Admiral Dog King?" Byakuran said mockingly.
The veins on Akainu's forehead bulged and nearly popped and he could no longer contain his rage.
[Family member Genkishi killed Doberman. Unlocked Rate has increased by 3%. ]
[Current Second Family Unlock Rate: 17%. Unlocked character: Real Storm Funeral Wreath, Zakuro! ]
Just as Byakuran was about to take care of Akainu, the system's notification rang out once more.
At the same time, Genkishi, who was now wearing an armor made from the power of Hell Ring slowly walked toward Byakuran with a slightly injured face and said respectfully, "Byakuran-sama, the Vice Admiral has been dealt with. Do you want me to kill that guy as well?"
Although he was injured at the moment, as long as Byakuran gave an order, he would undoubtedly carry it out, even if his opponent was an Admiral who was stronger than him!
Seeing Genkishi, Akainu naturally knew that Doberman had been defeated and might've even lost his life.
However, this didn't make him waver. Instead, it made him more determined to capture Byakuran and Genkishi. After all, losing a Vice Admiral in the North Blue without even catching an enemy was too shameful for him.
"There is no need for that. Since the task has been completed, then go ahead and have a good rest, Genkishi. Zakuro has arrived just now. There is no doubt that he is the best candidate to deal with this Admiral, isn't it?"
Byakuran smiled. He wanted to see how Zakuro devastated Akainu, or rather Giotto had long wanted to see this scene. After all, Zakuro was someone who treated magma as hot springs, and Asura Boxes was different from Vongola's Box Weapons. Asura Boxes' power boost was was very similar to that of Zoan.
"If it is Zakuro-sama, then he could indeed deal with this Admiral easily!"
Genkishi nodded and immediately retreated behind Byakuran, but he remained cautious. If someone attacked Byakuran, he would immediately fight with all his strength.
"Then, can we wait a bit, Admiral Akainu?"
Byakuran calmly looked at Akainu and whispered: "Of course, if you can't wait to fight, I can teach you a lesson. But you may have a slight chance of winning against Zakuro instead of having no hope of winning against me."
At this time, a red-haired figure slowly walked over. He held his ear with one hand and revealed a condescending smile as he said, "Hey Byakuran, I can deal with him effortlessly, okay? Do you think the Marine headquarters has the chance of winning against me?"
"Hmm? You're pretty quick, Zakuro."
After saying that, Byakuran looked at Akainu, "Admiral-san, let me introduce you. This is one of Millefiore Family's Six Funeral Wreath, Zakuro, who is also your next opponent. A friendly reminder, Zakuro temporarily won't use Color of Arms Haki, so you can use your Logia power at ease. Even so, you don't have much chance of winning...Because he was born with the ability to withstand magma!"
