Chapter 1250 Retention

"Want to leave? Hahahahaha..." A low and playful laughter sounded, as if the entire space was shrouded in this laughter.

"It's too late! What kind of place do you think this is? You can come and go as you please?" As Aokiji and the others heard these words, they felt the ground beneath their feet begin to tremble violently, as if a huge beast was awakening underground.

Just before everyone reacted, the next second, several extremely sharp slashes suddenly shot out from the ground like lightning, smashing into the ground with a terrifying momentum. With a loud bang, the originally solid ground was instantly shattered by these slashes, and gravel and dust flew everywhere.

Faced with such a sudden attack, Aokiji and the other two did not dare to be negligent at all. They quickly dodged and each used their own unique skills to narrowly avoid those fatal blows.

At this moment, a red figure rushed out from the broken ground like a ghost, flying straight into the air. Looking closely, it was the Red Earl who had just escaped! He was surrounded by a layer of rich blood-red energy, flowing like a burning flame. At this moment, the Red Earl looked refreshed, obviously because he had just absorbed a lot of energy, not only was his physical strength greatly replenished, but even his domineering aura was completely restored to its peak state!

After Aokiji and the other two managed to stabilize themselves, they all raised their heads and looked at the Red Earl in mid-air, their faces darkening. They knew very well that the enemy before them was no longer the weak one before, but a powerful and threatening enemy!

"Oh my, I was too complacent just now." Kizaru muttered to himself with a trace of regret on his face. He knew very well that his underestimation of the enemy just now might have an adverse effect on the battle situation.

"You two, this is not the time to be in a daze!" Yixiao, who was standing by, saw this and quickly drew out the long sword from his waist without hesitation. He took a deep breath, and the powerful domineering energy in his body surged out like a tide and quickly covered the entire blade.

"Gravity Blade!" With a loud shout, Yixiao swung the long sword in his hand fiercely and slashed forward fiercely. In an instant, a purple slash whizzed out, and the space seemed to be distorted wherever it passed. This purple slash was like a cannonball, rushing straight towards the Red Earl not far away at an astonishing speed.

Faced with such a fierce blow, the Red Earl remained calm. He calmly raised the long sword in his hand and swung it downwards with force. With a crisp "clang" sound, the powerful gravity slash was split in two in an instant. The remaining power of the split slash continued to fly behind the Red Earl, and finally exploded behind him.

"Boom!!!" With a loud noise that shook the world, violent energy raged everywhere, and the strong shock wave even blew the Red Earl's hair. However, the Red Earl stood as steady as a mountain, unscathed.

"I will take the lead from now on, and you two will wait for an opportunity to move on the side and help to hold him back!" Kizaru acted decisively, and before he finished speaking, he turned into a dazzling flash of light and rushed towards the Red Earl like lightning. At the same time, Aokiji on the other side was not idle either. He slowly raised his hand, and extremely sharp ice spikes suddenly condensed in the air. The next second, Aokiji waved his arm, and dozens of ice bullets flew out like raindrops, attacking the Red Earl in an overwhelming manner.

"Blood Shadow Kill!" With this roar, the Red Earl suddenly flapped his huge and bright red wings, and in an instant, several figures that looked exactly like him appeared in the air. These figures were lifelike, as if they were real.

At this moment, countless icy bullets flashing with cold light rained down on them. However, the Red Earl and his many clones showed no fear and rushed forward. For a moment, broken ice fragments were flying everywhere in the sky, like snowflakes floating all over the sky.

The sharp-eyed Kizaru quickly spotted one of the Red Earls. He flashed and appeared in front of the Red Earl at lightning speed. At the same time, his right foot emitted an extremely dazzling laser, like a scorching sun shining in the sky. The next moment, Kizaru kicked out with the speed of light without hesitation.

With a loud bang, the Red Earl's clone was instantly blown to pieces, turning into a thick blood mist that spread in the air. But Kizaru did not pause or hesitate at all. He scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, quickly locked onto the next target, and then rushed over like lightning.

Just like that, two more clones of the Red Earl were blown up by Kizaru's incredibly powerful light-speed kick. Each explosion triggered a strong shock wave that made the surrounding air tremble.

However, when the Red Earl saw his multiple clones being defeated one after another, he did not panic. Instead, he calmly raised his right hand and shouted, "Blood Rain!"

As his voice fell, the remaining clones suddenly exploded and turned into a scarlet blood mist. What was even more surprising was that even the blood mist formed by the clones that were kicked by Kizaru before seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force and quickly merged with it.

"Fall!" Along with this shout, the whole world seemed to change color. In the sky, countless scarlet blood drops as dense as raindrops poured down. The scene was as terrifying as the end of the world.

Just as the blood rain was about to fall, Aokiji and Ichisho's extremely sharp observation Haki suddenly sounded the alarm, warning them that they were facing a huge danger. The two did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and quickly dodged, trying to avoid the sudden blood rain attack.

However, the blood rain fell very fast. Although they had tried their best, some of it still fell on the ground. With a "chi" sound, the blood rain immediately produced a violent chemical reaction as soon as it touched the ground. The ground was corroded in an instant, and thick smoke billowed out. The pungent smell spread, making people feel suffocated.

Aokiji was out of breath and exhausted because he had consumed a lot of energy in the previous battle. But he knew that the situation was critical and if he did not take action to stop the disaster, the consequences would be disastrous. So he gritted his teeth, endured the weakness of his body, and used all his strength to forcibly release his devil fruit ability - Ice Age!

As Aokiji roared, an extremely cold breath gushed out from his body and quickly swept across the entire battlefield.

"Crack!!!" Under the influence of this powerful force, the ground that was originally flowing with blood solidified into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, the entire battlefield turned into an ice world, and everything was firmly frozen in place.

"Stop, Red Earl!" Aokiji raised his head and shouted, his voice echoing throughout the battlefield.

"We just want to leave here safely!" He reiterated his intention, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

However, what responded to Aokiji was an extremely sharp and powerful slash that carried endless power!
