Chapter 285: Roger Arrives
In the distance, a pirate ship slowly approached.
Its appearance surprised many people.
Compared to the other Rocks Pirates core cadres, his strength was no weaker, but he was too low-key, and there wasn't much news about him on The Great Sea.
The Captain of the Great Earth Pirates, and now the King of Stone Country, "Stone Buddha" Duncan.
Duncan did not participate in the great battle at God Valley.
He had the same concerns as Hades and could not directly oppose the World Government.
Dealing with the Marines was no problem, but Duncan would not make a move against the World Noble.
Of course, Duncan also paid a considerable price, offering treasure worth a full thirty billion Beli in exchange for the mission to receive the Rocks Pirates.
Such a price was not small for Duncan and Stone Country, but it was all worth it.
After the God Valley great battle, Duncan parted ways with them and did not return to Honeycomb Island.
It was unexpected that he had also come this time.
The identity of a pirate was already a thing of the past for Duncan.
For Hades, Duncan was now the King of Stone Country, while he was the King of Kronos Kingdom.
There was considerable cooperation between the two kingdoms.
At least for the construction of the Battle Pyramid and Paros Island, Stone Country provided a lot of metal and stone materials.
They nodded to each other without speaking, found a place to stand, and waited with Hades.
They, too, had this qualification.
Three large pirate crews approached side by side, separated by about a hundred meters.
The Five Peaks Pirates, the John Pirates, and the Silver Axe Pirates.
As supernovas from the early days of the Rocks Pirates, in terms of seniority, John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi had the highest seniority in the Rocks Pirates, second only to the Four Kings.
To Hades and the others, these three were elders of the Rocks Pirates.
And nearing fifty years old, they had reached their true peak in all aspects.
Wang Zhi and John were both world-class swordsmen, one pursuing strength, the other pursuing speed and technique.
Silver Axe was the strongest among the three, slightly a cut above.
His natural monstrous strength and powerful physique, coupled with the boost from the Paramecia Type Riki Riki no Mi, would make anyone who encountered him feel stress.
Age was their advantage, representing that compared to Newgate and Shiki, their physiques had been tempered by Haki for at least ten more years.
They had no flaws in any aspect.
In this era, these three were undoubtedly among the most powerful contenders for the sole hegemon.
However, this was only for this era.
Time was everyone's enemy, and it was their enemy even more so.
Currently, it seemed impossible.
There was no one with an absolute advantage.
In another five years, even if the peak Rocks D.
Xebec returned, he would not be able to establish the Rocks Pirates again and rule Great Sea.
Was the absence of Rocks a good thing?
No, this meant that the Marines and the World Government would face a group of Rocks, and the stress would be unprecedentedly great.
"Hades, haven't Roger and Shiki arrived yet?
Should we just forget about them?"
John said in a sarcastic tone, clearly showing his unfriendly attitude.
As for why, everyone present knew perfectly well.
Before the World Expo began, the John Pirates had a considerable conflict with the Roger Pirates.
The John Pirates undoubtedly suffered a loss in the end.
The Roger Pirates, possessing three top tier combatants, had no rivals except for the Pluto Pirates.
Even the Flying Pirates were the same; Shiki "The Golden Lion"'s right-hand man had not yet grown up.
As for Shiki, their connections within the Rocks Pirates were never good.
"Haha!
You should tell them that to their faces."
Hades laughed heartily.
He wouldn't do something that would offend people like that.
His gaze turned towards Great Sea.
"Speak of Roger, and Roger arrives."
The Oro Jackson sailed across The Great Sea.
Roger stood on the Goddess Figurehead, constantly waving his arms.
The crewmates on the ship were eagerly looking forward, gazing at Paros Island getting closer and closer.
"Full speed ahead!"
Wearing a red pirate coat that fluttered in the wind, his shirt was open, revealing his muscular physique.
Roger laughed excitedly, drawing Ace from his waist.
"Hey!
Roger, isn't that a bit much?!"
Seeing Roger's action, Rayleigh's expression changed.
He saw what his Captain intended to do.
"Haha!
This is a Sword Tournament!
Let's give them a welcoming gift!"
Roger laughed loudly, holding Ace vertically downwards and unleashing a slash!
The terrifying aura of the sword slash was like a dazzling star.
The next moment, a terrifying slash split Great Sea in two, crossing tens of kilometers of Great Sea and striking towards Paros Island from afar.
And the target, seemingly deliberately, was right in the center of Paros Island's Port, which was where Hades and the others were located.
"Hard to starboard, hard to starboard!"
The Roger Pirates were in a panic.
Ahead was the ten-thousand-meter Chasm created by Roger.
With a single mistake, the Oro Jackson would fall.
Who would have thought that they themselves would be the first to suffer?
"Captain, you're too reckless."
Facing the accusations of his many crewmates, Roger scratched his head and apologized with a smile, while his gaze was fixed on the direction of Paros Island.
"Let me handle it."
Newgate clenched his fist.
Facing his old rival, he was impatient to make a move.
However, Hades stepped in front of him first.
"Let Titan handle this one.
If the commotion is too big, a lot of ships will be damaged."
Newgate then remembered that this was the Port of Paros Island.
A large number of ships were gathered there.
With the power of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit, it would be difficult to control.
Once it erupted, who knows how many ships would be affected and destroyed.
He couldn't afford to compensate even if he sold himself.
He stepped back reluctantly.
This was not a good time.
He could only find another opportunity later.
"Roar!"
Accompanied by a giant roar, a hundred-meter-tall Monster appeared.
Its terrifying aura made people feel fear involuntarily.
Titan made his move, transforming into Glutton, spreading his fleshy wings, and flying towards the continuously incoming slash.
"This guy is even more terrifying."
Titan was a well-known Monster, and also a recognized Monster within the Rocks Pirates.
Even Charlotte Linlin coveted his bloodline.
Even without his Devil Fruit ability, Titan was still a super Monster.
Why were the Pluto Pirates the Strongest Pirate Crew?
Because besides Pluto Hades, there was also "Glutton" Titan, a Strongman who could rank among the top core cadres.
His massive physique, powerful physique, terrifying monstrous strength, almost infinite stamina, and vast Haki.
This was an enemy difficult for anyone to deal with.
In a head-on great battle, they would undoubtedly be worn down to death.
Like Hades' body technique, Titan's overall ability was also virtually unsolvable.
In this era, the current Strongest Creature was Titan!
