Chapter 96: The Frozen Judgment
"Be careful of his cold air," Lilith warned.
Then, with a flap of her wings, a powerful hurricane formed and swept toward Aokiji. The sea ice beneath the storm cracked and shattered as chunks of ice were sucked into the swirling winds.
"A troublesome ability," Aokiji muttered with a frown. He raised his right hand, summoning a surge of freezing air. Then, with another wave, he launched a terrifying counterattack.
"Pheasant Beak!"
A massive bird, sculpted entirely from ice, soared toward the hurricane. When they collided, the bird shattered into frozen shards while the hurricane dispersed into wind and snow. The two powers canceled each other out.
But the moment the winds calmed—
Lilith's figure flashed behind Aokiji, her leg lashing out in a kick coated with Armament Haki. Aokiji's eyes narrowed, but his instincts and experience kicked in. He spun around and raised an ice shield in time to block the attack.
"This ability..." Aokiji muttered.
He leapt back, putting distance between them. His gaze locked onto Lilith, then shifted briefly to Mio. That technique—her sudden appearance behind him—it was eerily similar to what Mio had used earlier.
It should have been a Devil Fruit ability.
But how could two people possess the same Devil Fruit power?
