Chapter 59: The Taboo of Sengoku!
_____
Sengoku and Borsalino were both stunned when they heard the words "Destroy!" If anyone had said this to them before, they would have scoffed, but after experiencing Robin's immense strength, they now have no doubt about the veracity of Robin's words.
They believe it is better to trust in her power, even if it's frightening than to have nothing at all.
Previously, they believed that the person behind Robin was just strong, but they had not realized how terrifying this person truly was. They have silently revised their opinions and now believe that the person behind Robin must be even more powerful than an Admiral.
Sengoku's expression became grim as it dawned on him that it was impossible for such a formidable person to only have one disciple.
God knows if there are others disciples under this so-called teacher.
If there are any disciples with the strength of Robin, then they could very well be comparable to the existence of the Roger Pirates.
Borsalino approached Sengoku and asked, "Admiral, what should we do?"
After a moment of contemplation, Sengoku gritted his teeth and said, "Today, we have suffered enough. If we continue, even the wounded won't be treated." He then turned to Robin and said, "Nico Robin, today's events will end here. We will settle accounts for your crimes in the future."
Robin's face was full of sarcasm as she replied, "End here?" She then spread her arms and they transformed into hundreds of branches, each one with a sharp ice blade.
The navy was stunned, witnessing her ability which combined the powers of two devil fruits: Demon God Manifestation: Demon's Extract (which they think is a devil fruit), and the Hana Hana no Mi.
Sengoku turned into a golden Daibutsu to block Robin's attack on the warship, while Borsalino used his Light Speed Kicks to defend against her ice blades.
The powerful navy Admiral and the future Admiral were now forced to be frightened and defensive.
Qin Tian, Robin's teacher, reminded her, ("Robin, Sengoku was involved in the Buster Call Order. I will find the right time to kill him using the frozen space-time.") Robin responded silently in her heart, ("Yes, Teacher Sunny, I agree.")
"Come out, my little pets!" Robin shouted.
Robin's small hand was raised to the sky and the waves around the three fleeing navy warships suddenly rolled. The ice cavalries emerged from the seawater and the temperature dropped drastically.
"This is bad! She's trying to attack the bottom of the kettle! Borsalino, go and destroy those ice cavalries!" exclaimed Sengoku, turning anxiously to look at the warship behind him.
("It's now or never!") Qin Tian shouted in Robin's mind.
"Mahāpadma!" Upon Qin Tian's signal, Robin immediately focused.
Instantly, space-time froze for just 0.2 seconds. But with a quick enough start, the outcome could be successful.
An arm appeared above Sengoku's chest, wielding an ice blade and thrusting it toward his heart.
Initially, Qin Tian had planned to take over Robin's left body and personally deliver the fatal blow.
This way, he could use the Armament Haki on the arm holding the ice blade and increase the chances of killing Sengoku.
However, after careful consideration, Qin Tian decided that Robin should carry out the attack. Qin Tian lacked practice and had slower muscle reactions compared to Robin. Moreover, Robin was already skilled in using this technique, having used it to wound Sakazuki. Therefore, Robin had a higher success rate without Qin Tian's arm with his Armament Haki.
Boom!
The ice blade shattered as it struck Sengoku.
At the same time, Sengoku was freed from the space-time freeze. He leaned his body and broke the ice blade with his fist.
"As expected! That was just a distraction. It was exactly like last time with Sakazuki," said Sengoku, looking at Robin coldly. "Last time, I was puzzled as to how you were able to seriously wound Sakazuki. So, I was on guard when facing you today. From the moment I appeared, several key parts of my body were fully covered with my Observation Haki and body protection Daibutsu light."
With that, Sengoku opened his collar, revealing the Observation Haki using.
"Old fox! You're lucky," said Qin Tian, realizing that he couldn't kill Sengoku. After all, the space-time freezing ability was too short and Sengoku had watched the video of Sakazuki's injury.
"What a surprise! Your ability just now shocked me. The moment of attack was completely untraceable, just as if time had stopped for a moment. What a terrifying ability! What is it?" Sengoku asked seriously.
Sengoku's words surprised Qin Tian. He realized that the opponent's abilities and effects could be analyzed from a single confrontation. It seemed that Sengoku's title as a wise Admiral was well-deserved.
"Guess what the ability is!" Robin finished, printing with one hand.
Two ice dragons rose from the water and charged toward Sengoku. Meanwhile, Borsalino rushed to the warship and defeated some of the ice cavalries. The remaining ice cavalries entered the water under Robin's control to avoid waste.
It had to be said that Sengoku was now at his peak strength was still formidable. He no longer engaged in a direct confrontation with Qin Tian's Armament Haki and took attrition, maintaining an equal standing with Robin on the scene.
Soon, Borsalino also joined the fight against Robin with Sengoku.
After a while of fighting, Sengoku noticed that the warship had departed.
"Let's go!" said Sengoku after noticing that.
Borsalino and Sengoku no longer desired to continue fighting and promptly headed towards the departing warship, using Geppo.
("They're going to escape!") Robin thought to herself.
Qin Tian contemplated for a moment before saying, ("Don't pursue them. They were simply caught off guard by my Armament Haki force at first. If they are resolved to engage in a war of attrition with you, the outcome will be unfavorable for you. Our objective has already been achieved as they are now intimidated. I dare say that they will not trouble Ohara for a long time.")
At Qin Tian's request, Robin yelled toward the departing Sengoku and Borsalino, "Ha! If my teacher were still waiting for me to cook for him, I would have chased after you into the navy headquarters. You two won't get away!"
