【The One-Tailed Shukaku, besides being adept at using wind and sand powers, can also form powerful sealing techniques relying on the patterns on its body…】
【Therefore, facing Akainu’s natural Logia Devil Fruit elementalization ability, the One-Tailed Shukaku immediately used its sealing power…】
【The effect was quite obvious, Akainu directly lost his elementalization ability, being directly sealed within the sand…】
【‘Haha… I’ve got you now… You damn eel, you can’t escape now!…’ Seeing Akainu captured, the One-Tailed Shukaku roared excitedly…】
【‘Damn it… What kind of ability is this!? It actually made me lose the elementalization ability of my Logia Devil Fruit…’ Akainu’s face also revealed a panicked expression…】
【Akainu, as a Logia Devil Fruit user, elementalization is his most important ability. Relying on elementalization, his magma can easily inflict massive damage on enemies and also allows him to dodge attacks…】
【But now, he has actually lost his elementalization ability, which instantly reduced Akainu’s combat power by 30%…】
【More importantly, Akainu is now surrounded by countless yellow sands…】
【Normally, Akainu wouldn’t even care about these sands. Relying on his powerful strength, Akainu could easily crush these sands…】
【However, this time Akainu discovered that these seemingly soft sands felt like they had a crushing force. No matter how hard Akainu struggled, he couldn’t budge these sands at all…】
【‘No good!… Akainu-san is bound, quickly… support Akainu-san…’ The nearby Marines, seeing Akainu bound in the sand, were also shocked. They didn’t hesitate at all, immediately manipulating the cannons and guns in their hands, launching attacks towards the One-Tailed Shukaku to support Akainu…】
【‘Bang… bang… bang… boom… boom… boom…’ Countless cannonballs and bullets bombarded the One-Tailed Shukaku, creating a series of massive explosions…】
【However, could these attacks really harm the One-Tailed Shukaku!? Obviously not…】
【These attacks not only failed to hurt the One-Tailed Shukaku, they actually enraged it…】
【‘You damn bastards!…’ The enraged One-Tailed Shukaku roared, then raised its head high. At the same time, countless red and blue energies gathered on the One-Tailed Shukaku’s head, quickly forming a huge, pitch-black energy sphere…】
【And this energy sphere was the most powerful ability of the Tailed Beasts… the Tailed Beast Ball…】
【‘All of you, die!…’ When the pitch-black energy sphere reached its peak, it instantly launched towards Akainu and the other Marines…】
【‘This is… Not good!… Quickly retreat, get out of the way!…’ Though Akainu didn’t know what this huge, pitch-black energy sphere was, relying on years of combat experience, he could still sense the threat it posed…】
【Akainu wanted to retreat, to escape, but unfortunately, he was currently sealed and couldn’t dodge…】
【He could only watch helplessly as the pitch-black energy sphere rushed towards him…】
【‘Rumbling…’ Accompanied by a deafening explosion, a giant mushroom cloud rose into the air…】
【The extremely terrifying explosion was destroying everything around it…】
With that, the video ended, and the screen in the sky instantly transformed into starlight and disappeared…
However, although the video ended, the shock it brought to everyone on the sea did not disappear.
“My god! Did you see that… what a terrifying creature!…”
“Yes! This is the Tailed Beast that Akatsuki is looking for!? Truly terrifying, there are such frightening creatures in the sea…”
“This creature is called the One-Tailed Shukaku!? It’s not even a match for the Marine Admiral…”
“You guys think, if we could get this creature, wouldn’t we also be able to defeat the Marine Admirals…”
“Definitely… If I get this creature, I’d definitely be able to defeat the Marine Admirals…”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go get the Tailed Beast…”
“But to get the Tailed Beast, you need the blood of a Celestial Dragon! Do we need to capture a Celestial Dragon too!?… Celestial Dragons are world nobles…”
“What’s there to be afraid of!? As long as we can get the power of the Tailed Beast, we’ll have the strength to fight the Marine Admirals. What are we afraid of the Celestial Dragons for…”
“That’s right, let’s capture a Celestial Dragon, get the powerful Tailed Beast…”
“…”
For a while, everyone on the sea started moving.
They now have only one goal, and that is to capture a Celestial Dragon and obtain the power of the Tailed Beast.
As long as they can obtain the power of the Tailed Beast, they can get powerful strength, enough to fight the Marine Admirals.
…
In a secret base in the Alabasta Kingdom, Crocodile and the members of Baroque Works were gathered here.
Although Crocodile had decided to lead Baroque Works to leave the Alabasta Kingdom due to the appearance of the video.
However, seeing the power of the Tailed Beast in the video, that kind of power that could easily crush a Marine Admiral and change the entire area, this instantly caught Crocodile’s attention and gave him a new idea.
“The Tailed Beast!? The One-Tailed Shukaku!? What terrifying power!…”
“If I could get this power, wouldn’t I be able to conquer the sea…”
Crocodile thought, his eyes gleaming.
Crocodile wanted to get the legendary ancient weapon because he wanted to get powerful strength and reconquer the sea.
Unfortunately, he stayed in Alabasta Kingdom for so long, yet he couldn’t find the legendary ancient weapon, nor could he confirm whether Alabasta Kingdom really had the legendary ancient weapon.
But now, things are different, through the video Crocodile knows that there’s an even more powerful force in Alabasta Kingdom, the Tailed Beast.
Crocodile couldn’t give up.
Since he couldn’t find the legendary ancient weapon, getting the power of the Tailed Beast would also be quite good.
“Change the plan, we’ll go to the ruins of Alabasta Kingdom, and take the power of the Tailed Beast…” Crocodile commanded.
“Yes… Boss, but to get the power of the Tailed Beast, we need to capture a Celestial Dragon…”
“Wouldn’t that attract a world government bounty and Marine Admirals chasing after us…”
One of the members of Baroque Works said worriedly.
“What are you afraid of!? As long as we get the power of the Tailed Beast, we’ll have nothing to fear from the world government or the Marine Admirals…” Crocodile said nonchalantly.
