Chapter 354 Battle Situation

"Freeze."

Accompanied by a cold low shout, with the Seraphim Kuzan as the center, the area with a radius of 50 meters around was instantly covered by a thick layer of ice, and everything was frozen in this crystal clear but extremely cold ice layer.

Many of the people who were still fighting tensely were trapped inside, unable to move, and could only struggle anxiously.

Ace was instantly wrapped in hot flames, and the ice began to melt rapidly under the high temperature of the flames.

"Zizi"

White mist rose and filled the air.

As the ice gradually melted, the trapped people around were finally able to escape. They moved their stiff bodies and prepared for battle again.

"Is this guy Aokiji?"

Bista asked in confusion, after all, the appearance and moves used were somewhat similar to the former Aokiji.

"No, too young, and the hair color is not right." Joz retorted.

The Whitebeard Pirates had no information about the Seraphim before, so they were very surprised at the enemy who looked like Aokiji.

However, they all knew that no matter who the opponent was, they had only one goal at this moment, which was to defeat the enemy in front of them, and they must not retreat here.

Joz looked at the Seraphim Kuzan who had just used his freezing ability, his eyes full of anger.

He rushed towards the Seraphim Kuzan, and every step he took crushed the floor under his feet, like a heavy tank out of control.

Seraphim Kuzan was not in a hurry. He slowly opened his five fingers, and released strands of freezing air from his palms. The freezing air quickly spread towards Joz, intending to freeze Joz again.

"Fire Fist!"

Just as the freezing air was about to touch Joz, Ace took action in time.

His right fist ignited a huge ball of flame, and he swung it hard. The flame turned into a fierce fire fist, whistling towards the freezing air. The two collided in the air and instantly offset the freezing air.

Joz took advantage of this gap and continued to accelerate towards the Seraphim Kuzan, and was about to hit him.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly blocked him without warning.

"Bang!"

A thunderous sound spread throughout the institute, causing people's eardrums to ache.

The huge Joz was stopped just like this, and the opponent was pushing him back step by step. Joz's feet drew two deep grooves on the floor, but he still couldn't resist the powerful force.

"Dad???" Joz widened his eyes and looked at the child who blocked him. He actually looked a bit like Whitebeard. The familiar facial outline and unique temperament made Joz stunned for a moment. Countless memories related to his dad flashed through his mind, and he was a little absent-minded for a while.

But the Seraphim Whitebeard didn't care about Joz's thoughts at the moment. He took advantage of the moment when Joz was stunned and punched out without hesitation. The fist was full of powerful force and hit Joz hard.

Joz activated his ability, and his chest instantly turned into an extremely hard diamond, trying to use it to resist the punch.

However, the power of the Seraphim Whitebeard was too great. Even though Joz had a diamond-hard defense, he was still hit by this punch and flew out. He fell heavily to the ground, and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.

Others in the Whitebeard Pirates also noticed this newly appeared Seraphim. When they saw the appearance that resembled Whitebeard's childhood form, they couldn't help but fall into deep memories.

Those days when they had galloped across the sea with their father, those scenes of fighting side by side, flashed in their minds one by one like a movie, and the actions that were originally prepared to continue fighting in their hands stopped involuntarily. Everyone's face showed a complex expression, with nostalgia, anger, and more grief after being blasphemed.

"Damn Vegapunk," Marco clenched his fists tightly. He had already guessed what was going on and shouted angrily, "He's not Daddy!! He's just a fake!"

His voice echoed in the research institute, with endless anger and unwillingness.

The entire Whitebeard Pirates were completely enraged when they heard this. In their hearts, Whitebeard was a belief-like existence, but now he was imitated in this way and used as a tool for fighting. This was undoubtedly a great blasphemy against Whitebeard. How could they tolerate it? They all had red eyes and roared towards the two Seraphim.

The two Seraphim stood side by side, facing the siege of the Whitebeard Pirates expressionlessly.

The situation on the Straw Hat Pirates side seemed a little bad. They were facing three powerful opponents: Seraphim Blackbeard, Seraphim Katakuri, and Seraphim Boa Hancock.

You know, after Weiss's transformation, the strength of all the Seraphim members doubled, and they were also given different special abilities.

The special ability of Seraphim Blackbeard is called "Withering". Anyone who approaches him will have their vitality absorbed little by little, and then transformed into his own strength, so as to continuously weaken the opponent and strengthen himself.

Seraphim Katakuri's special ability is "Time Stop". Of course, this is not really stopping time, but a unique ability created by Weiss based on the inspiration from Tohsaka Tokiomi and combined with the observation Haki.

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

With this ability, almost no attack can hit him. He can always cleverly avoid it at the critical moment, and then launch a fierce counterattack, making the opponent exhausted.

The special ability of the Seraph Boa Hancock is "obsession". Anyone who covets her beauty will instantly fall into an obsession once their eyes touch her, becoming confused and losing the ability to fight, and can only be slaughtered. This is also an extremely tricky ability for the enemy.

The order received by these three Seraphs is to capture the Straw Hat Pirates alive.

Weiss wants to study what is so special about this protagonist group that can always turn danger into safety in various dangers, and see if there is really some mysterious power protecting them.

At this moment, Sanji, Nami, Usopp, and Chopper are already lying on the ground. Their bodies are soft and they have no ability to resist. Obviously, they have failed in the battle with the Seraphs.

The remaining Luffy, Zoro, Robin, Franky, Brook and others are still struggling to hold on. Although they are trying their best to resist, they seem to be a little powerless in the face of such a powerful and difficult opponent. They are more or less injured, but their eyes still reveal an unyielding fighting spirit and have no intention of giving up.

As for the Nine Red Scabbards, Vergo, and Monet, the situation is even more tragic.

Most of them were killed or injured by the killing of Seraph Big Mom and Seraph Kaido.

These two Seraphs seem to have inherited the brutal side of the original body and are extremely cruel.

Those who died in their hands were either smashed into meat paste or their bodies were separated. The scene was bloody and even a complete body could not be found.

Only Ashura Douji, Denjiro, Vergo, Cat Viper, and Inuarashi are still struggling to hold on. They are full of wounds and their clothes are stained red with blood, but they still grit their teeth and wave their weapons.

However, there were still no wounds on the bodies of the Seraphim, and their cold faces did not change at all.
