Chapter 209: Blasting Akainu? Have You Asked One Punch Man First?

Conqueror's Haki Infusion—an advanced technique and the ultimate application of Conqueror's Haki.

By infusing Conqueror's Haki into weapons or attacks, one can unleash devastating strikes that destroy defenses without even making direct contact. This ability is exceedingly rare, accessible only to the strongest individuals in the world of pirates.

Even among those who possess Conqueror's Haki—a scarce talent—only a handful can cultivate it to the highest level and advance to this technique.

Among the elite present, apart from Monkey D. Luffy, only Whitebeard could achieve this level.

And who is Whitebeard?

A man who rivaled the Pirate King himself.

The strongest man in the world.

One of the Four Emperors ruling the seas.

It's no exaggeration to say that anyone who can master Conqueror's Haki Infusion is on par with the Four Emperors.

Thus, when Monkey D. Luffy suddenly revealed such an overwhelming ability, even the most powerful figures present were stunned.

Did this mean the young man before them possessed combat power on the level of the Four Emperors?

"Stop him!"

Seeing Luffy closing in on the execution platform, Fleet Admiral Sengoku immediately issued an order.

The next moment, a crimson figure leaped into the air, blocking Luffy's path.

It was Admiral Akainu.

Kizaru, that lazy dog, had claimed he would "capture the leader first," but after his initial attack was intercepted by Marco, he had disappeared, avoiding any serious engagement.

At this point, the Marine Headquarters had few who could effectively oppose Luffy.

The closest candidates were Sengoku, Garp, Akainu, and Admiral Qin Muyin.

Sengoku, as the Fleet Admiral, was the commanding figure who had to hold the line. No battlefield starts with the general leading the charge.

Garp wasn't a suitable choice either.

Luffy was his grandson, and everyone knew Garp would hold back.

Admiral Qin Muyin had already intervened once and couldn't be asked to carry the burden alone.

Thus, the most fitting choice was Admiral Akainu.

Akainu, ever dutiful, jumped into action at Garp's signal.

When Luffy saw Akainu, his eyes immediately filled with hatred.

The last time, this "Red Dog" had killed Ace right in front of him.

This time, Luffy was determined to destroy him!

"Gurururu…"

Akainu made the first move.

His right arm transformed into molten lava, instantly raising the surrounding temperature to a scorching level.

"Great Eruption!!"

With a roar, Akainu hurled a massive magma fist at Luffy.

"Rubber Rubber… King Kong Gun!"

Luffy shouted back without a hint of retreat, coating his fist in Armament Haki as he launched a counterstrike.

"Boom!"

The two colossal fists collided with tremendous force.

For a moment, the world seemed to stand still.

A shockwave rippled out from the impact, centered on their fists, obliterating the surroundings in all directions.

Seeing Luffy take on Akainu's full-power punch head-on, countless onlookers were stunned.

This feat confirmed that not only could Luffy use Conqueror's Haki Infusion, but his body also housed extraordinary strength!

"Garp!!"

Sengoku erupted in anger. "You have such a grandson, yet you let him become a pirate? You've committed a grave crime!!"

Garp, still in shock from Luffy's display of power, was left speechless. His mind was blank, and he couldn't think of a single retort.

On the execution platform, Ace's jaw dropped in astonishment.

He couldn't comprehend how Luffy had grown so powerful.

That punch from Akainu—if it had been aimed at Ace—would have been impossible for him to block.

Moments later, both Akainu and Luffy withdrew their fists. Remarkably, they were evenly matched.

But Luffy wasn't about to let Akainu off so easily and immediately launched another attack.

"Rubber Rubber… Kong Gatling Gun!"

Luffy's fists flew like machine-gun rounds, bombarding Akainu relentlessly.

In an instant, the sky was filled with the shadows of Luffy's fists.

However, as a Marine Admiral, Akainu was no ordinary opponent.

He quickly transformed his body into lava, using his elemental form to evade Luffy's furious assault.

Akainu found himself completely suppressed by Luffy, unable to move or even retreat. This sight left everyone in utter shock.

At the critical moment, another top-tier expert intervened.

Luffy, who was relentlessly attacking in mid-air, suddenly felt an overwhelming gravitational force acting on him. It felt as though a massive mountain was pressing down on his back!

"Thud!"

Luffy was dragged straight from the sky to the ground.

Not only that, but the invisible force pinned him deep into the earth, burying him entirely.

In the blink of an eye, Luffy was nowhere to be seen.

The one who struck was not Qin Muyin but the blind veteran Admiral Fujitora.

As a staunch upholder of justice, Fujitora couldn't tolerate a pirate running rampant.

He didn't know who Luffy was, nor did it matter to him.

The technique he used was Gravitational Restraint, one of the abilities of his Gravity Fruit.

...

Meanwhile, Qin Muyin found herself approached by someone.

At this point, the only one who would dare come near her was Vice Admiral Chen Ye, nicknamed "Honey Badger."

Watching Luffy and Akainu's intense battle, as well as Fujitora's intervention, Chen Ye couldn't help but comment, "What a flashy mess this all is!"

Qin Muyin glanced at him and asked, "Why are you sneaking around here? And why are you dressed like a common Marine soldier?"

Chen Ye, who had swapped his vice-admiral uniform for a regular soldier's outfit, complete with a helmet that concealed his shiny bald head, replied, "This outfit is for our operation, of course!"

Keeping his voice low, he added, "See that woman standing beside Whitebeard?"

"I see her," Qin Muyin responded. "She's our target, isn't she?"

"Exactly," Chen Ye confirmed. "You'll distract her from the air while I sneak in from the ground. We'll take her out first!"

Hearing this, Qin Muyin nodded but cautioned, "She's standing right next to Whitebeard. He won't just watch as she gets killed."

"That's why we wait for Fleet Admiral Sengoku to trigger the trap first. Then, we strike."

Qin Muyin agreed without hesitation.

Her gaze shifted to Luffy, now buried underground, as she asked, "Chen Ye, where did that kid with the straw hat come from? I've reviewed Whitebeard's pirate crew archives, and they don't have someone like him. In fact, I've never heard of anyone this strong from any major force across the seas."

"And that swordsman with the three blades is equally powerful… Where is she finding these kinds of monsters?"

Chen Ye, aware of Luffy's yet-unrevealed full strength, chose to remain silent on that.

"I don't know either. That's why I'm suggesting we take out Kawashima Nao first. If she keeps summoning bizarre powerhouses, our mission will be in jeopardy."

Hearing this, Qin Muyin's expression turned serious as she nodded. "You're right. I'll fully cooperate with you."

"Good. I'll head down to prepare. When you see Fleet Admiral Sengoku trigger the trap, act immediately."

"Understood."

...

Aboard the Moby Dick, Kawashima Nao remained unfazed, even as Luffy faced the combined suppression of two admiral-level forces.

She knew that Luffy hadn't yet revealed his true power.

However, the premature arrival of Admiral Fujitora and Admiral Green Bull, characters who weren't supposed to appear yet, was indeed an unexpected complication.

As Kawashima Nao pondered her next move, Whitebeard suddenly bellowed, "We can't let Ace's little brother fight alone! Men, hear my orders! Protect the Straw Hat brat with everything you've got!"

Hearing this, the pirates, who had been itching to act, responded with a resounding roar.

"Woohoo!!"

In an instant, the Whitebeard Pirates sprang into action.

One by one, they leapt down and unleashed their abilities, aiming to break through the inner bay and reach the plaza.

On the other side, Fleet Admiral Sengoku immediately grabbed a Den Den Mushi and issued a new command.

"Sixth Division, prepare to activate the trap! No pirate is to step foot on the plaza!"
