Chapter 179 Epiphany

Ice close to absolute zero swept across the land, and Ace went all out to stop the cold from freezing his brother.

Yun Tianxiang's body transformed into seven or eight kinds of clouds, which exploded together to resist Kuzan's ice age. However, facing Kuzan's powerful strength, his whole body was still frozen, but fortunately, his body was not frozen inside. Because the black knife in his hand was constantly emitting armed color domineering, helping him resist the ice.

Kuzan frowned as he looked at the black sword that exuded domineering aura. This was the first time he had ever encountered such a sword in his life, a sword that could actively convey domineering aura to its owner.

According to the Navy's data, there are indeed precious swords that can store domineering energy, but those swords often kill their owners. It is unheard of for a precious sword like this to save its owner.

Kuzan raised his hands and continuously activated his fruit ability. The ice of the Frozen Age continued to squeeze Yun Tianxiang's body. Yun Tianxiang's appearance was already a ten-meter-high mountain of ice and snow.

Yun Tianxiang's body was constantly releasing the huge roar produced by the mixed effect of clouds, but this force was suppressed by the pure low-temperature ice.

Under absolute power, this mixed force cannot produce quantitative changes.

The attribute cloud created by the Floating Cloud Fruit has an instantaneous burst of power that is only 30% of the power of the corresponding fruit. Even if multiple forces react with each other to generate several times the power, it is extremely difficult to reach 100% of the power of the corresponding attribute.

The combined power of the seven attribute clouds is roughly equal to 70% of the power of Ace Emperor Flame's Great Flame Ring, which is not enough to break the Ice Age.

Ice Age is a super skill that can freeze the sea instantly, forming an ice surface of more than a thousand meters. However, even the Flame Emperor's Great Flame Ring cannot easily break this skill.

Yun Tianxiang clenched his fists. He could feel that there was a lot of undiscovered power hidden in his body, waiting for him to discover and use.

He lowered his eyes to look at his sword. He was now relying on the armed color domineering transmitted in the sword to protect himself.

I am not yet able to use the Armament Haki freely. Once I can use the Armament Haki, I can mobilize the Haki in the sword to deal with Kuzan.

Take a deep breath and inhale the cold air.

The cold air makes the brain feel clear.

This slight chill was nothing compared to Nico Robin's twenty years of loneliness and betrayal.

"Armament Haki is a kind of reinforcement of the body and an application of qi. This kind of qi can recover on its own after being consumed. This is simply the power of cultivating immortals." Yun Tianxiang recalled the knowledge of Armament Haki taught by Rayleigh, he closed his eyes and began to comprehend.

"Oh. Close your eyes. Have you given up resistance?" Kuzan looked at Yun Tianxiang who closed his eyes, thinking that he had given up resistance. He stopped using Ice Age on Yun Tianxiang and turned to look at Ace.

"Tianxiang!" Luffy looked at Yun Tianxiang who closed his eyes and shouted anxiously.

"It's okay. Tianxiang is still alive. I think he closed his eyes because he must have his own thoughts." Ace patted Luffy's shoulder, signaling him to believe in his companions.

"Fire Fist Ace. I'm not interested in why you are here. I'm just here to catch Nico Robin. Please tell me where that girl is, okay?" Kuzan put his hands in his pockets, looking very lazy.

"That won't do. That girl is my friend." Fire Fist Ace clenched his fists and prepared for battle.

"Ace. Let's join forces." Luffy and Ace stood together and got ready.

"Luffy! Stop messing around. Get out of my way." Garp shouted behind Kuzan.

"Grandpa! Why are you here too!" Ace and Luffy shouted in shock at the same time.

"Why do you care about me?" Karp covered his nose with his hand and looked at his two grandsons with disdain.

"Oh my, old man Garp. Are you making things difficult for me?" Kuzan glanced at Garp behind him, asking for his opinion.

"Kuzan. You can do whatever you want. These two are my grandsons." Garp picked his nose and looked away with a sidelong look.

The only navy left were Kuzan and Garp, and the rest of the navy was next to Garp's dog-head warship.

"There's really no other way. Fire Fist Ace. Straw Hat Luffy. I'll just play with you guys." Kuzan stopped using the power of his fruit and turned into a pure physical battle.

"Huh? Ace's grandfather is a navy man?" Vivi looked at Ace in surprise.

"It should be a foster father-like relationship. After all, Ace is that man's son." Zoro hugged his body and shivered. He successfully realized that the admiral of the navy was a monster. His body was covered with dew condensed from the cold.

"I think so." Sanji wanted to light a cigarette to warm himself up, but found that he couldn't light it.

"Without grandpa, Ace would most likely not survive." Nami discussed in a low voice in the back.

"Rubber, rubber, machine gun shooting!" Luffy roared loudly.

His hands were as fast as afterimages, and one could not see the shadows of his punches at all. The only shadows that could be seen were those of dozens of punches.

Kuzan glanced at Garp, and Garp looked at Kuzan seriously. Kuzan had a bitter expression on his face. He put his hands in his pockets and dodged Luffy's rubber arms leisurely.

"How is that possible? Not a single punch landed." Luffy was attacking, but Kuzan was already in his face.

Kuzan gently pushed Luffy's chest, and Luffy flew out. "It hurts~"

"Alas, alas. It seems that I can't control my power well." Kuzan didn't dare to look back at Garp's expression. He explained lazily that he had tried his best.

"Armament Haki?" Ace clenched his fists, wrapped them with Armament Haki, and then punched Kuzan on the head.

"What a fierce attack. But, it's meaningless!" Kuzan activated the elementalization in advance and avoided Ace's attack.

"Did you see that? What a pity." Ace's punch missed Kuzan, but instead hit the iceberg that froze Yun Tianxiang, causing a small corner of the iceberg to crack.

Although the attack missed, Ace didn't get discouraged. After he gathered his breath, he rushed towards Kuzan again.

He stopped halfway through the rush.

A man stepped on his shoulder and punched Kuzan.

"Tianxiang!" The Straw Hat Pirates cheered happily for Yun Tianxiang's return after breaking through the ice.

Kuzan was caught off guard. Then Yun Tianxiang punched him into the sky, and he flew backwards with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

"Armament Haki?" Kuzan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up and looked at Yun Tianxiang.

But it doesn't matter when you take a look, you'll be shocked when you do.

The body of the originally strong young man now looked like skin wrapped around a skeleton, with not a single muscle visible on his body.

"It seems that that punch can't defeat you. However, I have already comprehended the Armament Haki. It is an invisible energy that gathers in the fat of the human body. The difficulty lies in how to find this energy and mobilize it!!!" Yun Tianxiang raised one hand, and the black knife flew into his hand. His body was slowly recovering, and the Armament Haki in the black knife was rushing into his body. He used the characteristics of the Floating Cloud Fruit to convert the Haki into normal strength to replenish the lost muscle strength.

"This kid." Garp put away his casual expression and started to be serious, because he sensed a threat to Kuzan from the black knife.

Kuzan raised one hand, condensed an ice blade, and was ready for battle.

Seeing Kuzan bleeding twice, Garp couldn't bear it after all, and reminded him: "Kuzan, be careful. That knife is not simple."

"Got it, old man. I can handle it!" Kuzan answered casually, and he took the lead in launching an attack!

"Don't underestimate me!"

I just lack the fight!

It doesn't mean that I don't have a talent for fighting!

Yun Tianxiang used his Armament Haki and Observation Haki to simulate the fighting methods of the two...
