One Piece : The Strongest Fleet Admiral

Marine Headquarters, Marineland.

"Ace...ahhh...I'm here to save you!"

"Hey! Why is it so high? I'm going to die...Help!"

"..."

Amidst excited and panicked shouts, a massive warship descended rapidly from the sky.

It seemed like it was about to smash through the frozen ground below.

In the vast bay square, the fierce battle paused momentarily as this unexpected event unfolded.

Both Marines and pirates stopped fighting and looked up at the source of the commotion.

"Ace! Ace! I'm here to save you!"

The excited shouting continued from the warship.

At the same time, beneath the towering execution platform in the distance, a tall man sitting in the center of three chairs also looked up, startled by the sudden disturbance.

The man had a square, serious face mostly hidden under a Marine cap, radiating an unapproachable and stern aura.

However, there was an odd trace of confusion in his eyes, which didn't match his usual demeanor.

Akari blinked, his thoughts muddled by the surrounding noise.

As he opened his eyes, he saw a crowd in front of him, with many familiar faces among them.

"Where is this? Why is it so noisy? Ace? That name sounds familiar!"

Akari turned his gaze to the battlefield ahead. After scanning his surroundings, realization struck.

"Wait a minute, Ace???"

"And the giant man with the crescent-shaped mustache—that's Whitebeard, isn't it? He's the big shot from One Piece!"

"No wonder this all looks so familiar. So... I've traveled to the world of One Piece?"

Akari couldn't help but feel a mix of shock and disbelief. Subconsciously, he stood up from his seat.

The fog in his mind cleared, and the sounds around him became sharper.

"That's the Sand Crocodile, Crocodile!"

"And the man in black stockings—that's the "Queen" of the Kamabakka Kingdom, Ivankov!"

Marines and pirates alike stared in disbelief as they recognized these individuals.

On the execution platform, Ace, consumed by guilt, froze when he heard the familiar voice.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku, standing next to him with a seagull perched on his head, glared at Garp.

"Garp! It's your grandson again, and he's brought out all the criminals from Impel Down. Your family is a mess!"

"I don't know what's going on in Impel Down or what's happened to Magellan!"

As Sengoku spoke, a flicker of concern crossed his face.

Garp, however, didn't seem to hear him, his eyes fixed on Luffy in the distance.

Sengoku sighed inwardly, feeling a pang of sympathy for his comrade, who had dedicated his life to the Marines.

...

Meanwhile, Akari's sudden movement had caught the attention of many.

"General Sakazuki!!!"

The shout from the Marine officers echoed across the battlefield.

Seeing their powerful general rise gave a morale boost to the Marines.

"Hohoho... Is that monster going to join the fight now?"

The Shichibukai turned their gazes toward him.

Doflamingo, observing Luffy's group falling from the sky, glanced between Whitebeard and Akainu before letting out a soft laugh.

On the execution platform, Ace, still shaken by Luffy's sudden arrival, grew anxious as he saw Sakazuki rise.

Even Garp's expression became uneasy.

"Hey~ Is Sakazuki about to make a move? So scary~" came a mocking voice from nearby.

"Sakazuki? General Akainu?"

Akari's mind cleared in an instant.

He glanced down at himself.

Standing more than three meters tall, his muscular body was even more impressive than the most famous bodybuilders or boxing champions from his previous life.

He wore a sharp red shirt, with a thick white cloak draped across his back.

A large cherry blossom tattoo was faintly visible on his chest.

Strangely, the tattoo seemed to react to his gaze, flashing briefly with a sinister red light before returning to normal.

Akari brushed it off as his imagination.

"Damn it! I've become Akainu, the Marine powerhouse criticized by so many fans."

After a brief pause, he corrected himself, "No, not Akainu—it's Sakazuki!"

Realizing his identity, he felt a surge of excitement.

Now he had the strength of a Marine Admiral, one of the strongest forces in the world of pirates. And later, he would rise to become Fleet Admiral—the ultimate leader of the Marines.

Compared to being a lowly pirate or a powerless Celestial Dragon, this was infinitely better.

Yes, he was now Sakazuki, Marine Admiral Akainu!

The current scene was clearly the Summit War, the biggest battle in the One Piece world.

Among the high-ranking fighters, he alone had fought fiercely against Whitebeard, the world's strongest man.

In comparison, the other two Admirals—one walked away with minor injuries, while the other got his clothes dirty.

Even becoming Fleet Admiral required him to fight Aokiji, who had barely participated in the war.

Thinking about this, Akari couldn't help but feel pity for Sakazuki in the original series.

"Sakazuki, the battlefield is getting chaotic. Follow the plan and take action!"

Akari snapped out of his thoughts as Sengoku's command echoed from the execution platform.

He froze.

What plan?

Oh no.

Akari realized he didn't have any of the original Sakazuki's memories!

"Okay, got it!"

He responded coldly, maintaining a composed exterior, but inwardly, he was panicking.

What if his next move was a one-on-one fight with Whitebeard?

Without Sakazuki's combat experience, he might actually die!

Desperately, Akari scanned the soldiers around him, hoping for guidance.

One nearby soldier, noticing Sakazuki's gaze, straightened up nervously.

But the soldier didn't say anything, leaving Akari disappointed.

Calm down.

Akari took a few deep breaths, regaining his composure.

Sengoku's doubtful expression didn't go unnoticed, but before Akari could react, his chest heated up.

The cherry blossom tattoo glowed again, brighter than before, its eerie red light impossible to ignore.

This time, it was no illusion.

As the light flashed, a flood of memories rushed into Akari's mind.

The memories of Sakazuki's life, from his childhood to the present, played out like a vivid movie.
