"Hmph!"
Esdeath slowly exhaled, a smile gracing her lips as she gazed at the Thousand-Year Ice Prison before her.
Although the two wouldn't freeze to death, as long as she didn't actively release them, they would remain frozen inside and eventually perish.
As for trying to break out of the Thousand-Year Ice Prison from the inside?
That was simply impossible!
This was her confidence in Hyōrinmaru after its Bankai.
"It seems that Lady Esdeath's battle has concluded; I must also accelerate my efforts!"
Issho, upon sensing the end of the battle, first felt disbelief, then looked up, sensing the two individuals fighting him.
"Monsters!"
Doflamingo and Tesoro gasped for breath, staring at the blind Issho.
He was clearly a blind old man, yet his strength was terrifyingly formidable, even suppressing them both, leaving them no room to retaliate!
Their awakened Devil Fruit abilities, under that terrifying gravity, were like women at someone's mercy, unable to lift their heads.
Their attacks couldn't even get close to this man before being directly pressed to the ground by the gravity.
Most importantly, the entire area around their battle was already filled with gravity, so they were essentially fighting while enduring gravity.
It was even more unbearable!
"Damn it!"
"A desperate gamble, Tesoro!"
All the white threads wriggling on the ground were gathered by Doflamingo, slowly compressing and solidifying.
The dark Armed Color also began to spread over the white threads on the ground, instantly covering them.
"You don't need to tell me!"
"No one can command me!"
Tesoro, the half-golden giant, gritted his teeth, all the gold slowly coalescing, similarly enveloped in Armed Color!
"Let's go!"
"Golden Divine Punishment!"
"16 Holy Assassination!"
The two attacks combined, the Armed Color white threads slowly intertwining with Tesoro's gold.
"This is truly..."
Facing the furious attacks of the two, Issho remained unperturbed, slowly sheathing his cane sword.
The purple gravity was slowly compressed into the scabbard!
"Gravity Blade: Fierce Tiger!"
The moment the sword was drawn, a purple tiger instantly appeared!
"Roar!"
The tiger leaped out!
The surrounding objects were directly torn apart, and the tiger's figure lunged directly at the combined attack of the two!
Boom!
The two energies collided, and a powerful energy shockwave swept out!
"Damn it!"
Doflamingo and Tesoro, combining their strength, gritted their teeth and withstood Issho's Gravity Blade!
But a full-power attack from an Admiral-level individual was not so easy to resist!
"Ah!"
"!"
Two screams echoed!
Doflamingo and Tesoro lay sprawled on the ground, their eyes devoid of light.
Their chests were sunken in, and they were clearly taking in more air than they were exhaling!
"Damn it!"
Doflamingo's finger moved imperceptibly.
"Parasitic string..."
A thread pierced into Doflamingo's neck, and only after completing this did Doflamingo pass out!
"Meteor Volcano!"
Before Esdeath and Issho could even catch their breath, a furious roar echoed, immediately followed by countless lava fists appearing in the sky.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Countless lava fists rained down from the sky!
"Akainu?"
A helpless Esdeath erected an ice wall to block Akainu's attacks, while Issho used gravity to evade damage.
The lava fists finished falling.
Dressrosa, which was already in ruins, had now become a lava wasteland!
Akainu strode over, his deep, resonant, and questioning voice rising: "Where are the enemies?"
"The enemies have all been dealt with, Admiral Akainu..."
Scanning the surroundings, only Tesoro, an unfortunate soul, had died on the spot, pierced by a lava fist because he had fainted.
Doflamingo was lucky and unharmed.
"This is bad..."
His gaze shifted towards the Thousand-Year Ice Prison...
Although the Thousand-Year Ice Prison was unbreakable, it was hard to guard against an inside job!
It was a pipe dream to try and open the Thousand-Year Ice Prison from the inside, because the people inside couldn't move, but those outside could!
"Sure enough..."
The originally intact Thousand-Year Ice Prison, struck by the lava fists, already showed signs of melting slightly.
"Admiral Akainu, whose side are you on!"
"Fortunately, nothing went wrong."
Seeing Esdeath reprimand him, Akainu wasn't embarrassed; as long as the enemies were dealt with, it was fine. If nothing went wrong, that ice block that looked like a prison.
It should be the one that froze the two Four Emperors!
Because he sensed familiar auras inside from the outside—it was those two!
"You've worked hard, Esdeath!"
Solving two Four Emperors at once was something he couldn't even do, but he didn't expect this young Marine to surpass him!
Although he was usually busy, he still knew a bit about Esdeath, who frequently made world headlines.
Even because of her, many people joined the Marine and gave up becoming pirates!
This was a good thing!
"Tch, you almost let those two out, don't even talk about it!"
Esdeath showed Akainu no mercy; this guy really just came in and immediately changed the terrain, truly not afraid of harming himself.
Akainu's old face flushed...
Although he was relatively extreme, he certainly acknowledged those who made achievements!
Throughout Marineford, the one he thought most highly of was none other than the rising Esdeath!
He would even be willing to give up competing for Fleet Admiral, or even relinquish his Admiral position!
Everything was for the Marine to become better!
Just as everyone was discussing how to deal with Big Mom and Kaido, a mirror appeared, instantly catching Esdeath's attention.
"Ice Lance!"
In the blink of an eye, an ice cone shot out!
But the mirror directly sucked the giant ice block into its interior!
The Ice Lance caused no damage; instead, it was also absorbed by the mirror into the Mirror World.
"Chase!"
Before she could move, the mirror vanished!
And the ice block containing Kaido and Big Mom also disappeared from its original spot.
"This..."
Akainu's expression darkened!
He was here, yet someone had snatched the two Four Emperors right in front of him; this was nothing short of a slap in Akainu's face.
Esdeath had already finished the battle before he arrived, so it was fine that he hadn't helped, but now that he was here, he watched helplessly as the Four Emperors were rescued!
He had let Esdeath down!
"This is my fault, Esdeath!"
"It's nothing, Admiral Akainu. Since I can defeat them once, I can naturally defeat them twice."
Esdeath wasn't too bothered by this matter; rather, it was due to her own oversight, as she had actually forgotten about Charlotte Brulee, that woman!
The Mirror-Mirror Devil Fruit user!
Her ability could truly be described as appearing and disappearing like a ghost; she had actually fallen for it!
