Chapter 898 Aokiji: How can these people just fight whenever they want?
Aokiji was silent for a while, then told her his plan: "Anyway, I have no intention of taking Nico Robin away this time, so you can rest assured."
"Really? That's good! But even if you want to arrest her, we can't let you take her away..."
This answer actually surprised Aokiji: "Huh? Why? I remember you two have only known each other for less than half a month?"
"Because Robin-san is a good person!"
"We don't know what she did in the past, but the old man said that no matter how evil a person is, as long as they are willing to turn back from their wrongdoings, they should be given a chance to reform! Life is precious. Instead of killing someone, it is better to let them atone for their mistakes with their actions."
Aokiji's eyes flashed: "It sounds like something a very kind and wise old man would say..."
"Is that so?? The old man is really awesome!!" Natsu said as he puffed out his chest unconsciously, his face full of pride, as if he was honored.
However, Aokiji quickly changed the subject: "But how much do you know about Nico Robin's past? If her existence itself is a threat to the world, can you still say such a thing?"
"It would be much easier if that were the case!"
This time it was not Natsu who answered him, but Happy. He directly brought out the teachings Kira had given him on a daily basis: "Kira said that no one is guilty just because they exist. Those are just excuses used by bad people to deceive others! People who say that are either stupid or bad!"
Hearing this, Aokiji was speechless. He suddenly had a very funny idea: as an admiral of the navy, the justice in his heart might not be as firm as that of a cat!
Even a cat has this kind of awareness. I don't think these wizards are bad guys...
Is this considered "justice without killing"? If it were the former teacher Zefa, he would probably admire this group of people, right?
Just as Aokiji's thoughts were immersed in teacher Zephyr who had already left the navy, Erza appeared in front of them with Robin.
"Aokiji?! Why are you here?!!"
The first time he saw the person in front of him, Robin was so frightened that his face turned pale, his hands and feet became weak, his whole body trembled, and then he collapsed to the ground with a thump.
This reaction was completely different from when she met Bruno before.
But this is normal. Not to mention that the importance of the Navy Admiral and CP9 is completely different, the psychological shadow left by the other party in her childhood is not so easy to eliminate.
"Robin-san?!"
"Are you okay?!"
Although they have not officially joined Fairy Tail, after spending many days together, they have already regarded Robin as a friend, a partner, and a family member. Now seeing her terrified look, they suddenly became anxious.
Wendy immediately went forward to check, but when she found that Robin was just generally scared, she was at a loss as to what to do.
"Who is this person?" Erza quickly realized the reason why Robin was afraid, and stared at Aokiji with an unfriendly look.
"He is the admiral of the navy, Aokiji!"
"Navy? That means the World Government?"
Erza had already regarded CP9 and Aokiji as the same group. She thought that his purpose of appearing here, like Bruno before, was to forcibly take Robin away, so she summoned the long sword from space without hesitation, "I told you, Robin is a friend of Fairy Tail! Since you don't intend to let her go, then be prepared to be our enemy!"
Something seems to be wrong!
Seeing the other party pointing swords at each other, Aokiji was not panicked, but he also felt that things were getting tricky: "Is there any misunderstanding between us? I said I didn't plan to take Nico Robin away ..."
"Someone claiming to be CP9 has just approached Robin and tried to threaten her to go with them using our lives. Aren't you guys in the same group?"
Erza's words shocked Natsu and the others.
"What?! Using us as a threat..."
"What a despicable method!!"
"You absolutely cannot agree to something like this, Robin-san!!"
"Whenever the safety of their partners is involved, the wizards of Fairy Tail never give the other party room for negotiation! If you want to fight, then fight. If you want to fight, then fight! No matter what difficulties we encounter, as long as we face it together, there will be absolutely no problem!!"
"That's right! As long as anyone attacks our family or friends, we will not hesitate to kill them even if they are gods!!"
Aokiji was speechless at this time. He didn't expect that there were CP9 spies on this island, and from what they said just now, they should have attacked Nico Robin, but failed.
However, CP9's actions are very covert. If they encounter someone like Nico Robin during a mission, they will definitely choose to report it. The superiors will give orders to capture her, and the mission will eventually succeed or fail. These are all very common things. But what Aokiji didn't expect was that not only did the other party fail, but they also invisibly pitted himself.
"you……"
Listening to these hot-blooded idiotic speeches, Robin was deeply moved. She had not expected that after only spending less than half a month with them, these people would dare to become enemies of the World Government for her.
"Um...should we sit down first..."
"No need to say anything! Take it!!"
Natsu shouted, interrupting Aokiji's unfinished words, and then he clenched his fist and rushed forward, with a large amount of flames wrapped around his right arm, "Fire Dragon's...Iron Fist!!"
Aokiji originally wanted to have a friendly conversation, but was attacked instead. He really had to fight back. After sighing helplessly, his body was instantly covered in ice. At the same time, he stretched out his hands and shot out five icicles.
“Ice Ball!!”
ice?!
Natsu, who was attacking, and Gray, who was about to take off his clothes and rush forward, were both surprised. It seemed that they did not expect that their opponent this time would be an ice fighter.
BANG!!
The icicles and flames collided in mid-air, producing a large amount of fog that obscured the vision of both parties.
At the same time, Aokiji's mind flashed with the information he got from Smoker: 'Natsu Dragneel , a wizard who claims to use the magic of fire dragon slayer, has the power to devour flames and fight with flames.'
"This ability... is it some kind of fire-attributed superhuman fruit ability? Or is it an animal-attributed fire dragon form?"
Yes, like most people, Aokiji does not think this is magic, because that kind of power has never appeared in history, so he believes that this is the ability of the devil fruit!
"But this temperature is higher than the Flame-Flame Fruit... maybe even higher than that Sakaski guy's magma! !"
"This is troublesome..."
At this moment, the high temperature dispersed the gauze-like mist, and another ball of fire was coming towards them!
"Fire Dragon's Wing Attack!!"
Aokiji did not panic. Since the opponent's ability was fire, it would counteract his own ice. He had many years of experience on the sea, so facing this mere 20-year-old kid, wouldn't it be easy?
The ability of the Ice Fruit was activated again, and a large amount of cold air leaked out, forming a thick ice wall two meters in front of Aokiji, trying to keep Natsu's fire out.
BANG!!!
The moment the fire wing hit the ice wall, the solid ice wall was smashed into pieces by a powerful force, and then quickly melted and evaporated in the high temperature!
"Not only pure fire attacks, but also physical attacks? This kid's physical fitness is comparable to that of a lieutenant general in our headquarters..."
By the second move of the fight, Aokiji had already realized how high the temperature of Natsu's flame was, and what shocked him even more was that this temperature seemed far from the upper limit!
"Fire Dragon's... Collapse Fist!!"
With the third move, Natsu increased his output and punched Aokiji in the chest with a force far greater than the previous two moves.
Crackling!!!
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Aokiji's body turned into countless pieces of ice and fell to the ground, leaving only the three-meter-wide icy ground where he was originally standing.
“Ehhhh?!! That old man’s body is broken?!”
Natsu's face instantly turned livid, and he screamed in horror, "Did I kill someone? I'm sorry!! I didn't mean to do it!!"
Natsu clasped his hands together with a "snap" sound, and kept bending down to apologize to Aokiji, who had turned into ice chips on the ground. Behind him, Aokiji, who had recondensed his body, paused slightly with his hands that had turned into ice and were about to press on Natsu.
"This kid... is he so thick-skinned?"
"Idiot Natsu, watch out behind you!!"
Gray's loud shout suddenly woke Natsu up. He sniffed and immediately smelled the scent coming from behind him. He then moved his magic power with a thought, and a coat of flames surged out of his body to cover his entire skin.
But at the same time, Aokiji also resumed his movements. He took a step forward and grabbed Natsu's shoulders. In less than a second, the silver-white ice froze his whole body into ice.
"What a pity! If you don't know how to use Haki, your attack on a natural ability user will be ineffective. Flame boy, you should take a break first..."
Crack! !
Aokiji's eyes widened instantly.
But in less than a sentence, a crisp sound was heard from the frozen Natsu's body, and then there was a loud bang, and flames broke out, evaporating all the ice on the frozen man's surface.
“I’m on fire!!”
