Zakuro, one of Millefore Family Clan's Real Six Funeral Wreath, and the holder of Storm Mare Ring.
Before becoming a real person, he was just a poor person living in a dilapidated house. In order to show his loyalty to Byakuran, he destroyed his hometown that he had lived in for a long time. Although he usually looked listless, he would be very strong and maniac once he was in battle, and his destructive power was also worth noting.
Even without Asura Box, he could casually bath in magma as if it was a hot spring. If his opponent was Aokiji or Kizaru, it might be hard to say who would win and who would lose, but since the opponent was Akainu, Zakuro naturally had the advantage because Akainu's magma couldn't injure Zakuro that easily!
After being looked down by Byakuran, Akainu couldn't stand it any longer. Natural resistance to magma? Let's see if you all can still run your mouth once you are drowned by magma!
"Dog Biting Crimson Lotus!"
His arm turned into the dog head-shaped magma that he thrust at Byakuran. He didn't care about Zakuro who just came at all. So what if he was a Real Six Funeral Wreath? Did he think that he was on the same level as Vongola Family's Storm Guardian?
What Akainu didn't know was that the real Six Funeral Wreath of the Millefiore Family was indeed on the same level as Vongola Family's Guardians. Even if they might not be equally strong, they were equal in terms of standing.
"You hopeless bastard! I am standing right here. Who told you to ignore me?"
Zakuro took a step forward and used his body to block Akainu's attack. He seemed to be completely unharmed even though he stood in the lava. He had a maniacal smile as he looked at Akainu, "Are you trying to scratch my back or what? This doesn't even tickle. What exactly do you want to devour? Let me show you what true strength is! Asura Box!"
Along with Zakuro's maniacal laughter, crimson Flame was exuded from Zakuro's Storm Mare Ring, tearing his clothes and revealing the box that was embedded in his chest. Then, he channeled his Storm Flame into the box on his chest. The terrifying crimson flames erupted at this moment, forming a continuously rotating flame that enveloped his body.
The magma that Akainu blasted out was disintegrated due to the effect of Storm Flame!
Asura Boxes were a special ability that only Millefiore Family could use. By lighting the Asura Box that was implanted into the Real Six Funeral Wreaths Body, the user would be transformed into a weapon/human hybrid with all the abilities of the Box Weapon at their disposal, becoming the strongest weapon with enhanced phsique. It was an ability that surpassed the limits of all living beings.
It was precisely because of this that Zakuro could do something as ridiculous as bathing in magma!
After Storm Flame scattered, Zakuro's figure also reappeared in everyone's vision. His body doubled in size, resembling a red dinosaur and complete with tails and claws!
"Ancient Zoan?" Akainu frowned when he felt the strong and unique energy from Zakuro.
Zakuro's appearance undoubtedly showed that he was an Ancient Zoan user. If that was the case, then it kind of explained why Zakuro could withstand his magma. Ancient Zoan users were known to be extremely tough, and if they had reached Awakening, it would make sense if Zakuro could withstand his magma.
"Huh? What are you talking about, idiot?"
However, Zakuro was not a Zoan user. He grinned and said, "This is the power of that huge monster that exists in ancient times… Tyrannosaurus. I will show you firsthand."
Suddenly, the Storm Flame burst out from Zakuro's back, resembling wings. In an instant, he disappeared and grabbed Akainu's chest with his claw in the next moment...
However, Akainu's Color of Observation Haki allowed him to detect Zakuro's movement. His body subconsciously reacted, and he backed away a few steps. The Tyrannosaurus' claw nearly grazed his chest. Akainu's chest was nearly tore open.
"Your reaction speed is pretty good!" Instead of continuing his attack, Zakuro praised Akainu for being able to react to his attack.
However, the look on his face clearly said that he was ridiculing Akainu.
"Is this guy on the same level as that monster Kaido?"
Akainu's expression was extremely serious. He now understood why Byakuran let this guy take his place. There was no doubt that this Tyrannosaurus guy was indeed an Admiral-calibre combatant, and the natural resistance Byakuran referred to earlier must be Tyrannosaurus' resistance that could easily handle high temperature, and that was why his body could withstand his scorching magma!
"What's wrong, idiot! Are you so scared that you don't even have the courage to fight? A weak and hopeless guy like you is an Admiral? You are called Akainu, right? If that's the case, then it will be very easy..."
Zakuro laughed maniacally. He didn't even take any stance, leaving himself wide open for Akainu to attack: "Akainu means Red Dog, right? Then get on your feet and bark like a dog you are! I may spare you if you if you do it!"
Akainu had never been humiliated this badly in his whole life!
He was now sure that these guys in front of him were not Vongola Family. Although Vongola Family and his men were also criminals, at least they never ridiculed their opponent!
"Shut your damn mouth! Trash like you don't deserve to insult an Admiral! Great Eruption!"
Being consumed by rage, Akainu used all of his strength to punch Zakuro, but even at this moment, Zakuro was still laughing. He didn't take Akainu's attack seriously...
