One Piece: Gambling to The Top

The two admirals were gasping the shock as they stopped, staring at Josh, who just killed the last hope for reviving Akainu.

What's more shocking was that Josh was having Magma-Magma Devil Fruit in his hand, and he was smirking cruelly at the admirals.

"You have to know, if I gave you something, I'll take something in return. Only children and women think the otherwise." Josh said very provoking words… making the admirals on the same level with children. "That's not how the world works, neither physics."

Clenching his teeth, Aokiji punched the ground. A new layer of ice covered the island. Josh, since he is calm now, decided to see the future. He picked up the vessel and jumped high as spikes of ice appeared from the ground. At that moment, Kizaru appeared next to him. Kizaru was having a sword made of light, and he waved it down.

"Give that back. It belongs to the Marines." Kizaru had a very angry expression on his face as he looked at Akainu's fruit, his dead comrade's fruit.

Josh's action broke the canon characters.

Josh smirked cruelly and brought his great sword to parry Kizaru's. Just as was about to activate the darkness, Kizaru half-closed his eyes, as if he was knowing exactly what was going to happen.

In instant, he vanished and appeared behind Josh. He chopped down with the light sword, trying to cut Josh in half. Alas, a light shield appeared on Josh's back, and his aura gave a different impression, an impression of superiority.

"I can make light materialise too." The vessel vanished to the storage. That instant Josh took to hide his precious item, a few ice spears were in front of him. "Iron Mass." Declared Josh, and the ice broke on his chest before he turned and slashed at Kizaru, who brought up his knees, shooting a light beam from them.

The beam exploded on Josh's chest, making him flip back, heading to the ground. Although it was a bit painful, Josh's previous experience didn't allow him to be affected by such a thing, except getting stronger a bit.

Kizaru looked coldly at Josh, who lifted his head and smirked at him

"You make great teamwork," Josh said. He opened his mouth, gathering fire. Josh gave the impression of rage.

Kizaru saw the future, and he obviously dodged and appeared on the ground behind. Both Kizaru and Aokiji lifted their hands, aiming at Josh and charging very powerful attacks.

Josh wasn't aiming at Kizaru's previous spot, as he had wanted to make him stand next to Aokiji.

'Not all of them are so fast.'

Light and ice headed toward him. Flapping his wings, using Shave and Moonwalk, Josh moved at a very high speed and appeared on the ground, in front of the admirals, catching them off guard.

*Roar*

With a strong roar, a sea of crimson flame swallowed them.

The Wrath Flame was way hotter and way bigger. This time, it covered the whole island, melting the ice and reaching the sea.

'It seems that Asura spirit increased my attacks three folds. Love the Divine Rank.'

Orbs of light appeared above the sun, forming Kizaru, and had a slight burning mark on his clothes.

On the other hand, Aokiji wasn't as fast. But he had been experienced. As Josh found that Kizaru is planning to attack, he lifted his head, changing the fire's direction toward Kizaru, covering his view and forcing the admiral to teleport somewhere else.

Although the land in front of him turned into a burned land, however, it started freezing again. Aokiji seemed to use his awakening to change the terrain again to an ice island.

'This will take forever, with both of them around. Probably couple of days or more.'

Josh extended his hands to left and right, each hand with a sword, and he spun on himself.

A tornado was created as the island turned into ice spikes that headed at him. But the sharp pressed air countered them.

'Tsk, two days… that's a huge waste of time.'

A big light beam clashed with the tornado, creating a huge explosion.

'Also, I have refused the gamble to beat them earlier, If I beat them now, I'll get nothing.' Josh was considering his options. 'But as I got a rematch with Akainu, I can get one with them. The divine rank is totally worth it.'

Both Akainu and Aokiji appeared next to him. Darkness spread around Josh, touching the admirals, and chopped down with his swords on each one of them.

The admirals had an aura covering them, and they extended their hands to meet with the blades.

There was also an aura around Josh's swords. As Josh kept pushing, sparks appeared, and the admirals were struggling to stay standing.

'Also, if the battle took too long, Hancock would be attacked… doubt they can defeat her though. But the navy may attack my home at water 7. I have enough money that I don't need my position as a Warlord…'

"Come on," Aokiji said. "It's a matter of time."

"Yes…" Kizaru replied, pushing.

Josh, with a cold voice, said. "Defeating you like this… has no meaning… Heal your wounds… get strong, after that, we'll settle the matter."

The armament Haki around Josh's sword started spreading, covering the Haki of the admirals, and pressing it.

At the same time, red lightning started dancing on Josh. Cracks spread from the ground, the ice started collapsing, but the admirals didn't seem to be affected. However, they flinched, knowing this aura was of the aura of conquerors. But something like that is nothing for them.

"You think you can escape," Kizaru said, light appearing on his shield.

"You're going to die today." The cold breeze danced around Aokiji.

"Love your courage. But I have a business, son." Josh scoffed.

The Armament Haki Josh had used to cover the admirals was meant to create pressure... and you know what pressure can make.

"Move!" Kizaru yelled as he jumped backwards. Aokiji, getting the message late, tried to escape.

Alas, huge explosions spread from Josh's sides. Aokiji was caught in the attack, and he flipped back several hundred meters, while Kizaru had found himself forced to the edge of the island.

Josh had one purpose of not continuing this. He had to save his time. Also, with his current power, and 18000 Draw Points, he can get a power that allows him to steal every bank in the world.

The admirals were on the sides of the island, and they stared at Josh, who turned into his human form, coldly looking at the ground.

"You two are just a waste of time. Get strong in the future." A paper appeared in Josh's hand. That was an item he had won right before he had died.

[Teleport Talisman (Legend)]

(Can be used to teleport the user to an island he had visited before. Usability (2 times)])

Kizaru tilted his eyebrows, and he turned into a beam that headed to Josh. The speed was the speed of the real light, and the admiral didn't seem to fear any backlash of clashing of such speed.

But alas, Josh just vanished into thin air.
