246. I am Moses
The horizon appeared to warp and distort, as if reality itself were being twisted. The ocean''s surface itself started to ripple and undte in a way that defied thews of physics. It was as though an invisible hand had reached down from the heavens, stirring the waters with an otherworldly power.
"It''s happening again!"
"Everyone, turn around NOW!"
"Get out of here. This is massive."
"What on earth is this?"
Akainu was moonwalking at a very high altitude, so he too felt the push. The gravity around him seemed to shift, and the best thing he could do was to distance himself from it. Going upward wasn''t an option, as the attack approached too swiftly. He could only move sideways.
The ocean''s response was swift and dramatic. Enormous waves formed in an instant, rising higher and higher, their crests crowned with frothy white peaks. The ships, once stable on the tranquil sea, found themselves at the mercy of an unimaginable force. rms red, and crew members struggled to keep their footing as the vessels were tossed around like toys in a raging storm.
And then, amidst the chaos, stood Ken – a lone figure atop the undting waves. The tremendous pressure exerted by this power managed to push back the tumultuous waves, creating a circr void on the ocean''s surface – a hollow sanctuary amid the chaos. The navy ships caught in this maelstrom weren''t spared.
Akainu, despite exerting all his strength, found himself unable to escape the water tsunami. He used his magma sts to create a hole in the ocean, but the water engulfed everything. All of this was captured by a drone flying high above, recording the entire scene with its sound and video feed.
People around the world watched in horror. The ocean had been divided? What on earth was happening?
As quickly as it began, the cataclysmic disy came to an end. The invisible force released its grip, allowing the ships to crash back into the sea with colossal sshes. The waters settled, and the waves calmed in the aftermath of the tempest.
Thankfully, this spectacle unfolded far away from Marineford, so many didn''t witness it from a distance. However, they did see the immense tsunami being created and then turned their gazes toward Whitebeard. Whitebeard himself felt a bit puzzled, but a smile crossed his face. He had observed Ken disappearing and Akainu going missing, indicating that these two had likely yed a significant role in the extraordinary events.
Ken floated, looking down upon his own creation.
''No wonder Nagato only did it once and had to sacrifice a significant portion of his chakra. The consumption is enormous. Even for my body,'' Ken thought, his expression devoid of emotion. He understood that this attack wouldn''t be sufficient to eliminate the entire navy. While many would be injured and a considerable number might drown, he was certain that Akainu would survive the tsunami''s impact. The water hadn''t receded, and the ocean floor was now smooth and even, devoid of corals or uneven terrain.
After a few seconds, the water gradually returned to the ocean floor. Unlike the previous tsunami, this time there was no massive wave; the water simply resumed its ce amid damaged ships, lifeless fish, and coral fragments. Ken floated in silence, observing everything without a trace of sympathy.
Lately, he had grown colder, perhaps influenced by Obito''s demeanor. In times of war,passion had no ce. A few momentster, bodies began emerging from the water. These were surviving navy members who had been submerged but not killed. However, not everyone resurfaced. Among them, one navy officer stood out, carrying Akainu on his shoulder. Using a wooden splinter, he hoisted Akainu above the waterline.
*Cough* *Cough*
Akainu coughed intensely, as if emerging from a nightmare, his expression contorted and ugly. He felt a sense of shame, needing the assistance of someone of much lower rank to survive.
Aoto noticed this and descended slowly, approaching Akainu. Akainu turned his gaze toward Ken with a menacing re. His hands ignited like a disy of fireworks, ready to unleash a furious assault on Ken and then end his life.
"I was raised near the Grey Terminal of the Goa Kingdom, essentially the kingdom''s dumping ground. Grandpa couldn''t spare time for us, but we managed to enjoy life regardless. One day, your beloved Celestial Dragons dered their intention to visit the Goa Kingdom. To portray the kingdom as clean and virtuous, they decided to incinerate the entire Grey Terminal, along with the people residing there. Yes, there were criminals among them, but there were also innocent men. The Government, however, cared little. They employed the cruelest methods to ughter and burn the entire refuse pile," Ken recounted.
"Much like you showed no concern for the innocent boats during the Ohara incident. How does it feel to be on the receiving end of such an attack? Is it satisfying? I''m willing to bet it is," Ken said, a smile forming on his lips. Initially, Akainu dismissed Ken''s words, but a shiver ran down his spine as Ken mentioned the Ohara incident, prompting him to use Moon Walk to distance himself from the ocean.
"You know too much, Punisher Kenny," Akainu roared, hurling magma balls at Ken. Employing his usual push and pull techniques, Ken managed to deflect the attack. However, Akainu wasn''t finished; he charged in,unching a physical assault on Ken.
But Akainu miscalcted. He thought that his gravitational pull could be countered with strength. He was gravely mistaken. As Akainu came inches to his face he stopped mid air. He was trying his best to propel himself and gritted his teeth in fury. But nothing happened. Not an inch moved.
"You thought I am Fujitora?" Ken said. "This isn''t his Devil fruit Akainu."
"Begone!"
And with one massive push he was thrown away and this time Akainu was sent back to the Marineford. It was better for him to be at Marineford, then y as some schemer here.
