Because even Aokiji, who was at the top of his class, would basically have a narrow escape if he stayed in this situation.
But Maud was different.
The shadow fruit's ability to change shape is simply a magical skill.
then-
When the impel city was rising, Mod jumped down decisively.
On the one hand, it is to break up the rear, and on the other hand, it is to allow Jinbei and Xia Qi, who are still restraining Kizaru, to escape and return to the impelling castle.
And his provocative action of hooking his fingers was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, causing every navy's anger level to reach its peak immediately.
No matter what, we must stop the Mod Pirates from escaping here!
When the navy were angry, all they could think about was to end the lives of the Mod Pirates here.
Akainu's eyes were filled with monstrous rage, and his arms filled with hot lava were raised high towards the sky.
"Meteor volcano!"
He suddenly released his ultimate move.
The molten fists were like a wave of machine guns, spraying fist-shaped lava towards the bright sky.
A large number of lava fists flew into the clouds, turning the entire sky red and exuding an ominous aura.
"Ah la la..."
Qing Pheasant raised his head and looked at the clouds that looked as if they were burned red by flames. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a large amount of cold air silently appeared on his body surface.
Later.
Countless meteor-like lava fists will fall from the red sky.
If these lava fists are allowed to fall, not to mention the terrifying three-masted ship, even the impel city will be completely destroyed by the lava fists in a short time.
but-
The Navy has Akainu, but the Mod Pirates have Aokiji.
"call-"
Aokiji exhaled a breath of cold air, slowly took his hands out of his pockets, and was ready to block the Akainu Meteor Volcano.
at the same time.
Mod looked at the many lava fists flying into the sky, his eyes so calm that he couldn't see any waves.
This kind of large-scale move that can easily destroy a fleet is nothing in front of Aokiji who has the ability to control the field.
So Maud wasn't worried at all.
He didn't pay too much attention to the apocalyptic meteor volcano, and instead looked at Kizaru who was fighting with Jinbei Shaqi.
Further away, thousands of naval forces are rushing towards this side.
"Let Jinbei and Xia Qi escape first."
Maud had a slight thought.
Apparition!
Quietly, Mod and the shadow clone exchanged positions.
The instant change in his aura immediately alerted Kizaru, and he realized that the shadow clone that was still besieging him a second ago had been replaced by Mord's true body.
The strength of the main body and the shadow clone are so different that Kizaru cannot be cautious.
After exchanging positions with the shadow clone, Morde seamlessly went on the offensive and slashed at Kizaru.
The black-red electric arc coiled around Qiushui Dao's body exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.
Kizaru, who was highly vigilant, instantly dodged out of Morde's attack range when Morde swung his sword.
This kind of response speed is not unpleasant.
But the weapons in Maud's hand were not only a pair of autumn water, but also a pistol transformed by Bailey.
After the sword missed, Maude raised the muzzle of the gun, pointed it at Kizaru and pulled the trigger continuously.
Bang bang...!
The weapon-colored bullets were wrapped around him and chased directly after Kizaru.
In the midst of the lightning and flint, Kizaru couldn't be sure whether the bullets that flew towards him and were entwined with armament colors were mixed with shadow bullets that would allow Mod to change his body.
Therefore, having a deep understanding of Mod's strength, he did not dare to rashly use [Elemental Hollow] to evade the attack. Instead, he directly stepped out of the strike range covered by the armed bullets.
Kizaru's decision was exactly what Maud wanted.
Immediately.
Mod didn't care about the consumption of Haki at all, and relied on Bailey's unlimited ammunition characteristics to pull out a barrage full of shock, forcing Kizaru to retreat outside the battle circle.
Jinbei and Xia Qi, who no longer had to chase Kizaru, left the battle.
"You guys go back to the ship."
After forcing Kizaru away with gunfire, Mod glanced at Jinbei and Shaqi.
"Be careful, little Maud."
Xia Qi nodded to Mod and immediately returned to Impel Down City without hesitation.
She knew that Mord had the ability to transform, so after hearing Mord's words, she didn't stop for a moment and ran towards Impel Down City very simply.
But Jinbei remained motionless.
"Jinbei?"
Maud glanced at Jinbei from the corner of her eye and frowned slightly.
Jinbei looked calm and said: "A person's power is limited after all, so I will stay here to do my best."
"No need, and you'll die."
Maud came to the conclusion without hesitation.
He has the ability to transform and can return to the terrifying barque at any time.
But Jinbei was different. If he was determined to stay and cut off, the survival rate would be basically zero.
You know, once the unchecked Akainu, Fujitora, Garp, Kizaru and many other top combat powers join forces, even if Jinbe is extremely powerful, he will be crushed to pieces in a short period of time.
"It doesn't matter."
Jinbei knew that it was dangerous, but he still looked calm, as if he had no regard for life or death.
Mod saw Jinbei's determination and couldn't help but remain silent. She was too lazy to waste time trying to change Jinbei's mind at this juncture.
However, Mod didn't want Jinbei to die here.
After waiting for the mission to be completed, before leaving, he wanted to ensure that Jinbei could get into the sea.
In that case, with the racial expertise of the fishmen, escaping from here should not be a problem.
Maude made up his mind, and when he saw that Kizaru had retreated far enough, he put away his gun.
now.
The red-haired pirates were leaving the battle one after another, and the navy obviously had no intention of pursuing the red-haired pirates and had transferred most of its combat power to the Impel Down City.
Several Shichibukai, such as Qingjiao, Hawkeye, Orombus, and Bobby, who participated in the war but had no notable achievements, cleverly and quietly retreated to the edge of the war circle when they realized that the war was coming to an end.
They have fulfilled their obligations, and they will not be stupid enough to try to stand out when the war is about to end.
At times like this, just wait until the dust settles.
On the other hand, Olumbus, who led a large fleet to participate in the battle, suffered heavy losses.
The large fleet of nearly 6,000 people has been killed and injured so far, and there are only less than 500 people left who are capable of fighting.
Originally, before the war started, Olombus had told his subordinates to be passive and lazy in the fight, and there was no need to risk their lives for the navy.
Who would have thought—
At the beginning of the war, Mod and Jaya used a set of combined skills. Before the entire large fleet had time to paddle, they were torn apart by the debris of the island falling from the sky.
At that time, Olumbus's heart was bleeding.
Now that this war is about to end, all he wants to do is to return to the new world quickly, raise the banner, recruit new subordinates, and fill the vacancies as soon as possible.
As for Qingjiao and Bobby, they basically have the same idea.
It's just that Qingjiao will pay attention to what's going on with Garp from time to time.
If given the chance to kill Garp, Qingjiao would definitely not hesitate.
But he will only take action when he is sure.
After all, if he killed Garp on such an occasion, he would not be able to escape unscathed.
He didn't want to do something stupid like losing his life in vain. If he was exchanging one life with Garp, the nature would be different.
Hawkeye is different from the other Shichibukai.
Before the war started, he was already thinking about fighting Shanks.
However, the opposite happened.
He didn't get the chance to face off against Shanks, so he had no choice but to show off to Beckman, paddle out brazenly, and then wait for the war to end.
"If there is a chance..."
Hawkeye stood on the edge of the battle circle, his gaze passed through the navy team and landed on Maud.
There were wisps of luster in those falcon-like eyes.
The actions of the Shichibukai clearly indicated that they did not want to participate in the finishing operation.
only-
The Shichibukai were determined to stay out of the matter, but they didn't know that the navy had no intention of letting them leave here alive from the beginning.
At this time, it was naturally impossible for the navy to correct the attitude of the Shichibukai, and all their thoughts were focused on the Mod Pirates.
Also at this time—
Countless fist-shaped lava fell from the red clouds, like meteors, drawing red lines in the sky, falling diagonally towards the impel city and the terrifying three-masted ship below.
As soon as the meteor volcano emerged from the clouds, the blue pheasant made some moves.
The majestic cold air released from his body suddenly formed giant ice thorn spears around him.
In just two or three seconds, nearly a hundred ice thorn spears were suspended next to Qing Pheasant.
Green Pheasant's eyes glowed red, he raised his head to look at the lava falling from the sky, and raised his hand to wave.
The ice thorn spears formed by the cold air flew out through the air, crushing the lava falling from the air one by one.
While crushing the lava, the impact contained in it will knock the lava fragments away, preventing them from affecting the impel city and the terrifying three-masted ship.
Boom boom boom!
In the bright sky, the confrontation between ice and fire burst into brilliant fireworks.
"Kuzan...!!!"
Seeing the meteor volcano being blocked by the Aokiji, Akainu's eyes suddenly burst out with chills, and he wished he could melt the Aokiji with lava.
Perhaps Aokiji is not as aggressive as Akainu and Kizaru, but in terms of defensive ability and field control ability, Akainu and Kizaru are definitely not as good as Aokiji.
The defeat of Meteor Volcano made the navy realize that as long as Aokiji stood on the side of the Mod Pirates, they could withstand Akainu's destructive large-scale attack.
At this time, Fujitora silently stepped out of the battle formation.
At the critical moment when Akainu failed, Fujitora took action.
Clang!
The sword is unsheathed.
The gravity circle glowing with purple light patterns pressed on the Impel Down City from a distance.
The rising impel city seemed to be suppressed by an invisible hand, and it was immediately unable to move.
Everyone in the impel city and the terrifying three-masted ship was also affected by gravity in an instant, and their bodies immediately felt very heavy.
