Chapter 7: Leviathan axe trial
Everyone stood frozen in place, unable to process what they had just witnessed. The villagers stared at Kratos with wide, reverent eyes—like worshippers who had just seen a god descend. Even the Straw Hat Pirates were silent, overwhelmed by the sheer power he displayed.
Kratos walked forward, his heavy footsteps cracking the frost beneath him. Nami, Zoro, and the villagers watched him approach, their expressions a mix of awe, shock, and disbelief.
“It’s finished now,” Kratos said, his deep voice echoing across the ruined remains of Arlong Park.
Those words snapped the villagers out of their trance. Joy erupted instantly. Some cried, some cheered, and others ran toward him. Before Kratos could react, a group of villagers hoisted him into the air, tossing him up in celebration.
Kratos’ expression twitched in surprise—he clearly wasn’t used to this.
“Put me down,” he muttered, struggling as the crowd tossed him higher.
But then—
A sharp *SWISH* slashed through the air.
Everyone froze.
The sea surrounding Cocoyasi Village began to glaze over with ice, spreading rapidly across the surface in seconds. The temperature dropped so sharply that villagers could see their breath.
A massive swirl of blue energy formed in the sky, condensing into a streak of light that plummeted toward the village like a meteor.
But Kratos recognized it instantly.
The **Leviathan Axe**.
And something was wrong.
The axe’s aura was wildly unstable—overflowing with accumulated divine frost. It spiraled uncontrollably, vibrating with the force of an avalanche.
Kratos’ eyes sharpened.
It wasn’t returning.
It was attacking.
He raised his hand, attempting to command it through their divine bond—but the axe resisted. Sparks of frost lashed out like wild lightning.
Realizing he couldn’t stop it from afar, Kratos bent his knees and launched himself upward, meeting the axe mid-air. When his hand met the handle—
**BOOOOM!**
A massive eruption of frost exploded outward, forming a dome of icy shockwaves that blasted across kilometers. The ground shook violently. Arlong Park froze solid in less than a second—ice thick enough to trap entire buildings.
The cold radiating from the Leviathan Axe easily surpassed the chill of Admiral Aokiji’s ice—this was divine frost, born from the world of gods.
“Not now…” Kratos growled, gritting his teeth.
“This is not the time for a trial.”
But the Leviathan Axe didn’t care.
It pushed harder, pouring out even more energy. The ground beneath Kratos cracked as he slid backward, his boots carving trenches into the ice.
“Everyone RUN!” Zoro yelled.
The Straw Hats retreated immediately, dragging the villagers with them. Even from hundreds of meters away, the cold bit into their skin like needles.
If Kratos hadn’t warned them earlier, they would have been statues of ice already.
Kratos planted his feet, frost creeping up his arms as he tried to force the axe to yield.
“You unfilial weapon…
I COMMAND YOU!”
He activated **Spartan Rage**—his muscles expanding, veins burning with molten fury. His eyes glowed with crimson fire as he pounded the axe with explosive punches.
But the Leviathan Axe roared back with divine strength no mortal weapon could match. It surged forward and dragged Kratos several meters toward the retreating villagers.
The moment Kratos realized the axe was heading toward his companions—
his anger reached its breaking point.
“YOU BASTARD!” he roared.
“I WON’T LET YOU TOUCH THEM!”
The axe tilted, slicing downwards. Its blade scraped Kratos’ shoulder—and then plunged deep, carving through muscle and leaving a wound that instantly turned purple from the divine frost.
Blood sizzled as it froze mid-drip.
Kratos’ roar of pain echoed across the entire island.
But he didn’t stop.
Channeling every last fragment of his rage, Kratos threw a punch so powerful the air itself detonated.
**THUUUUUUUM!**
The shockwave blasted across Conomi Island, uprooting trees, shattering ice plates, and sending millions of ice shards slicing through the landscape.
When everything settled, Kratos stood alone in the center of a crater.
The Leviathan Axe was embedded deep into his shoulder, frost spreading outward. Blood pooled beneath him, freezing on contact.
The villagers, far behind the shelter of rocks, stared at him with trembling fear and admiration.
Kratos grabbed the axe handle.
The skin of his hand froze instantly—but he tightened his grip anyway.
“You stubborn brat,” he growled, ripping the axe from his shoulder in one brutal motion. Frost exploded outward from the wound.
He clenched his fist, channeling the Leviathan’s frost into the wound to seal it shut. A permanent scar was already forming—a divine scar that would never heal.
He staggered as he walked back to the others.
Everyone watched in silent awe.
Zoro stepped forward.
“Your weapon tested you, right?” he asked, voice steady.
Kratos looked at the swordsman, surprised he understood.
Zoro lifted Wado Ichimonji.
“A weapon like that chooses who it serves. Same with swords like Kitetsu or Enma. If it rejects you… it attacks.”
Kratos nodded slowly.
“Yes.”
Usopp limped over proudly. “W-Well… I defeated that fishman officer! The one who spits water bullets! Hahaha… ha…”
Sanji dusted off his suit. “And I handled Kuroobi, that fishman karate freak.”
Kratos looked at the destroyed village, guilt shadowed on his face.
He approached Genzo, the sheriff, and pulled out a large box of shining gold.
“150 million berries,” Kratos said.
“For the damage. Use it to rebuild.”
Genzo’s eyes widened. “This… this is too much! You already saved us! We can’t—!”
Kratos’ stern look silenced him immediately.
Genzo swallowed hard.
“…I’ll use it well. I promise.”
Finally, Kratos pulled up his status window—a golden projection appearing in front of him.
