Chapter 2471 Akainu VS Crimson Lioness! (Bonus chapter for the humble reader who is a patron. 42)

Meleo Leona grinned: "It is my honor to receive Admiral Akainu's approval."

She has a forthright personality and a fiery fighting style, but as a member of royalty, she still maintains proper manners.

"That's why I'm even more eager to experience your power for myself!"

Sakazuki's gaze remained calm: "Commendable courage. Now that you're here, give it your all."

"Let me see just how far your flames can burn."

He raised his chin, his words carrying a hint of condescending scrutiny.

"You have ten minutes to show your skills."

A glint of fire flashed in Meleona's eyes: "Then...as you wish!"

"Magic Domain - Full Power!"

【boom----】

In an instant, a massive magical power, as powerful as a tsunami, erupted.

Blue and white flames surged from her body like a volcanic eruption.

But they immediately recede inward, gradually forming the graceful silhouette of a woman.

Meleo Leona's body had completely transformed into raging blue flames.

"True Flame Magic: Incarnation of Karmic Fire!"

The temperature around her rose sharply, and the ground beneath her feet melted continuously, forming rolling lava that flowed outwards.

"Burning Wrist - Consecutive Strike!"

With a roar, Melioleona unleashed a flurry of punches, leaving countless afterimages.

In an instant.

Under the influence of the magic field.

Thousands of blue fire fists, like a torrential downpour, rained down from all directions and angles, bombarding Sakazuki, who stood in the center, with a continuous, deafening roar.

Each punch contained enough heat and impact to easily destroy a mountain.

however.

Faced with such a fierce offensive.

Sakazuki, however, did not even move a step.

These blue fire fists seem to be incredibly powerful, enough to instantly kill colonels and senior colonels.

When you get within ten meters of him, it's like hitting an invisible wall.

They all collapsed and vanished on their own, ultimately failing to even cause a ripple.

The elemental authority granted by the second awakening of the Lava Fruit.

Make Sakazuki immune to fire attacks that are weaker than himself.

Furthermore, it can prevent them from taking effect within a certain range according to one's will.

As for how large this range is.
If he wanted, no flame that didn't belong to him could appear in the entire RL1111 area.

“This level of probing is pointless,” Sakazuki said calmly.

"understand!"

Merleona's pupils contracted slightly, and she responded loudly, her fighting spirit growing even stronger.

"Again. Scorching Wrist. Purgatory!"

She gathered all her scattered attacks and concentrated her magic on her right arm and right fist.

The blue-white, ultra-high-temperature flames are rapidly compressed and condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This made his entire right arm almost entirely turn a dazzling white!

All spectators, even through their screens, could feel the blinding light and the chills.

No one doubted that Merleona's next punch would contain terrifying power beyond imagination.

next moment.

She suddenly swung her right fist.

[Boom—]

A giant, dark blue pillar of fire, over 100 meters in diameter, shot out!

Wherever it passed, the earth was plowed open with deep lava trenches, and the surface rocks were instantly vaporized.

The temperature in the entire RL1111 area reached an alarming level.

The protective barrier around the edges and the sky rippled violently due to the extreme heat.

It was as if they might break completely at any moment due to the pressure.

This attack turned the entire battlefield into a true inferno!
Sakazuki faced a blow that posed a significant threat to the general.

Finally, some action has been taken.

But he simply raised his right palm and opened it forward.

That eerie blue pillar of fire, filling the entire field of vision, powerful enough to burn mountains and boil seas.

All its magic and heat flowed onto the surface of his palm like water, and a dark red magic circle quickly absorbed it.

Until wisps of blue smoke rose, all the blue flames completely disappeared.

"It's not bad."

Sakazuki lowered his right hand, his assessment remaining indifferent: "But is that all?"

This overwhelming disparity in strength was like a bucket of ice water poured over one's head.

But it did not extinguish the flame in Melioreona's heart.

Instead, it stirred up her indomitable spirit and pride.

Knowing she could hold back any longer, she roared, "Again!"

"Fire Magic Arcane Technique. Ultimate Magic. Scorching Arm. Abyss!"

The blue-white karmic flames burning on his body rose up once more.

This is her most powerful, trump card move, pushing the destructive power of fire magic to its extreme.

Merleona instantly appeared in the air, looking down at Sakazuki standing still below.

This time.

Her right arm, now flaming, was no longer white, but instead emitted jet-black flames.

"Black flames?"

This scene reminded army officers from all over the country of the Uchiha clan's Amaterasu.

Their guess was pretty accurate.

Mereoleona studied the properties of 'Amaterasu'.

A replica of the fire magic version of "Never Extinguish," which devours all flames.

By fusing it with his own ultimate magic, he further enhanced the power of 'Purgatory'.

And it was named 'Abyss'!
A very subtle ripple appeared on Sakazuki's usually impassive face.

He could tell that the power of this move was already at the level of a general.

Therefore, it was decided to launch a direct counterattack against Melioleona.

It's a kind of recognition, I suppose.

"Ancient Dragon. Lava Magic. Great Fireball."

As a sign of respect, Sakazuki uttered the name of the move in a low voice.

At the same time, molten lava surged from his clenched right fist.

Even more surprising is...

A colossal black fire fist, obscuring the sky, descended from above.

A magnificent dark red magic circle suddenly unfolded in front of his lava fist.

At the center of the magic circle, it seemed to connect to the Earth's core, or as if a giant dragon was roaring.

[Boom—]

In an instant.

A giant lava fist, far larger and more solid than Meleo Leona's 'Ultimate Magic: Scorching Arm: Abyss', and containing a regular burning power.

They shot straight into the sky through a slowly rotating magic circle.

Wherever the lava fist passed, the space trembled violently, emitting a strange, unbearable hum.

next second.

Black flames and lava.

Two terrifying forces, each containing extreme heat, collided violently in mid-air under the watchful eyes of countless people.

There was neither a stalemate nor a deafening explosion.

It was like a red-hot iron meeting fragile ice and snow.

Mereoleona's all-out ultimate technique, 'Abyss,' was no match for 'Great Fireball'.

It was annihilated in less than a second.

The dark red magic circle in front of Sakazuki appeared even brighter in the firelight.

at the same time.

The giant lava fist, its momentum undiminished, engulfed Mereo Leona, who was in mid-air.

“Ahhhhh————”

The piercing screams were broadcast live throughout the military.

It didn't take long.

Mereoleona's body was forcibly reverted from its 'Incarnation of Inferno' state back to its original form.

Like a falling fiery meteorite, it flew backward and crashed heavily onto the lava ground a kilometer away.

The earthquake created a large, circular crater that was immediately engulfed in flames.

At this moment.

The entire Army Headquarters seemed to fall into a deathly silence.

Loki, Irving, George, Spider-Man, and others also fell silent.

There is no doubt about Mereoleona's strength; she is definitely a general-level powerhouse.

But she couldn't stop Sakazuki's 'big fire breath'.

This is the absolute crushing power of a martial god over a general.

They're not even on the same level.
(I'll give you the monthly passes tomorrow, the 28th, guys, double!!)
