One Piece: Nico Robin Collection

Chapter 101 Defeat CG
"Salmon Crocodile..."

Looking at the gloomy face, Caesar snorted.

"This bastard!"

Brockie and Donley both got up and wiped the blood from their chests.

Although they were accidentally hit by the attack, fortunately, although the attack was fast, the damage was not high. For the two giants with strong physiques, it was not even a minor injury.

This is also the weakness of the giants. Although they have strength that is difficult for humans to match, their huge physique limits their speed, and they can easily suffer losses if they encounter a nimble guy.

This is not only true for giants, but also for people with larger bodies.

"This guy is here to look for the little girl named Robin."

Dongli looked at Caesar and reminded him.

"Ah, it seems so. But I didn't expect this guy to be so brave, or should I say... arrogant?"

Caesar sneered, not trying to hide his disdain.

"Kim Caesar..."

Looking at the figure looking down at him, Crocodile's face was gloomy.

To be honest, he thought he could do it.

Although Caesar's record is impressive, such as a draw with Doflamingo, a draw with Kaido, and defeating Garp...

But so what?

Who hasn’t fought against the Four Emperors?
I had fought with Barrett and the result was draw, and I had also challenged Whitebeard. Although I didn't beat him, I did fight him after all.

But what about the results?

Caesar's kick almost knocked his kidney out...

Regardless of Caesar's strength, at least this power is definitely inhuman!
But strength is strength. With the ability to create sandstorms, he didn't think Caesar had the ability to keep him.

Crocodile staggered to his feet with a gloomy look on his face.

"That woman Nico Robin is under your command, right?"

"What? Is there a problem?"

"Make a condition."

Crocodile raised his hand and said, "That woman is of some use to me. What do you want me to do to get her?"

Just as he finished speaking, a shoe sole suddenly enlarged in front of his eyes, and with a loud bang, Caesar kicked his head into the ground!

"You bastard..."

boom--

Another strange force came down, stepping back the words in his mouth.

"Did I hear wrongly?"

The sole of his shoe rubbed against Crocodile's head, and Caesar's smile turned cold: "You came all the way here, hurt my friend, and threatened to buy my woman?"

"Just because you managed to escape Whitebeard's clutches, you think you have the guts to challenge the Four Emperors?"

"You...deserve...to die!"

Hearing Caesar's mocking words, Crocodile's eyes turned red, veins bulged on his head, and he struggled to swing the golden hook in his hand, slashing towards Caesar's waist.

"Yo~ Baring your teeth and claws, digging inside your mouth~"

Caesar released his foot that was stepping on Crocodile's head, slightly sideways to avoid the golden hook, and when Crocodile stood up, he suddenly turned around and kicked, his heel sweeping heavily on the opponent's face, knocking him away.

"Desert sword!"

Clang——

Before he even hit the ground, Crocodile adjusted his body and swung his hand towards Caesar, splitting his figure in two and slashing the ground with a sharp blow.

Thumping...

The blood-colored bats scattered and reunited to form Caesar's figure.

"Elementalization..."

Crocodile's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

Is it a mythical beast that can transform into an element, a guy like Marco?
And those bats...

No, it should be blood, but it appears in the form of a bat.

This means that even without Armament Haki, Caesar's ability can restrain him.

"Broky, Donli, you two go and rest first, let Luo treat your wounds." Caesar called.

"Oh! Then I leave it to you. Beat up this bastard who dares to interfere with our duel!" Broki said angrily.

"give it to me…"

Caesar glanced at Crocodile, who looked disheveled and had his shoe prints on his face. "That's not necessary."

As he was speaking, other people also rushed over.

Caesar waved his hand and said, "Ace, I leave this guy to you. If you defeat him, you will be ranked first in this ocean!"

"Just him?"

Ace's eyes fell on the shoe prints on Crocodile's face, with a look of disbelief.

"This guy is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Crocodile."

"Asshole, stop looking down on me!"

Seeing that Caesar was going to use him as a whetstone, Crocodile became furious and turned into mad sand and rushed towards Caesar.

"Oh!"

Flying in front of Caesar, Ace raised his foot and kicked Crocodile's big golden hook.

"That won't do! If I can't even stop you, wouldn't I be so embarrassed?"

After saying that, Ace raised his hand and punched.

"fire punch!"

boom--

The flames gushed out, turning into a sea of ​​fire, and collided with the sandstorm.

"Nature..."

Crocodile's heart sank.

Not only is it the nature system, but it also has troublesome abilities like fire.

This kind of element suitable for combat is quite troublesome to fight even without domineering power.

Not to mention the level of domineering of this kid in front of him... well, not inferior to him.

"Your level of domineering power doesn't match your arrogant appearance." Ace laughed and flew up to punch out.

clang--

The fist collided with the golden hook, making a deafening explosion.

"Arrogant brat!"

"You are the one who is arrogant!"

Ace dodged the sweeping golden hook with a bridge move, supported himself with his hands, and kicked Crocodile in the chin.

"puff…"

Crocodile suddenly raised his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Honestly, your physical skills are pretty bad!" Ace couldn't help but complain.

"Damn it..."

Crocodile's expression gradually became ferocious.

Even though he couldn't beat Caesar, he could still say that the guy was a natural monster and it was normal that he couldn't beat him.

But he couldn't even get past an unknown guy under the opponent's command, which made him a little overwhelmed.

Not to mention that there was a group of people watching the fun not far away!
Crocodile sneered in his heart when he saw Robin, who looked calm in the crowd, and slammed the ground.

boom--

The earth cracked, and endless sand gushed out from the cracks like rivers.

The raging sand surged and turned into dust all over the sky, blocking everyone's sight. His figure also disappeared and dissipated in the yellow sand.

"I'm screwed this time, Caesar..."

Crocodile's voice came from all directions, revealing a sense of aloofness.

"But don't be too proud, you poof—"

There was a muffled bang, followed by Barto's wild laughter.

"Hey, hahahahahahahaha, I knew this guy couldn't hold his fart well!"

In the sandstorm, Barto made a barrier gesture, and the barrier box protected everyone except Big Bear.

Outside the barrier, Crocodile covered his nose, a trickle of blood seeping from between his fingers. Inside the barrier, a group of people, completely unaffected by the sandstorm, stared at him as if he were a fool.

"Barrier Fruit, you didn't expect that, idiot!"

Barto crossed his eyes and stuck out his tongue at Crocodile, then imitated Crocodile's tone: "But don't be too proud, hahahaha!"

"Hahaha, is this guy an idiot?"

Seeing Barto's expression, Bonnie burst into laughter.

"Asshole..."

Crocodile's eyes hardened and he raised his hand and pressed it on the barrier.

This kind of thing, just absorb the moisture...

"Desert Prison!"

hum-

An invisible force covered the barrier, and the barrier remained motionless.

Baby5: "What is he doing?"

Robin: "Maybe some kind of performance art?"

Crocodile: "..."

It was visibly visible that his face quickly turned pale.

Suddenly, a flash of fire bloomed in the sandstorm, and the surging flames dispersed the sandstorm. Ace flew up and kicked Crocodile.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Crocodile stood up and flew into the sky.

At this moment, he finally gave up the goal of becoming Robin and turned into a sandstorm, flying rapidly towards the place where the ship was parked in the distance!
Suddenly, a shadow fell over his head.

He was a tall man wearing a bear-ear hat. His seven-meter-tall figure was like a hill, blocking the sunlight above his head.

As if by teleportation, the man appeared in front of him out of thin air, his calm tone seemed to be devoid of any emotion.

"The battle is not over yet."

"Get out of my way!"

Crocodile waved his hand fiercely: "Desert Diamond Sword!"

Boo!
The man waved his hand, causing the sand knife to shatter, and the oncoming Bear Paw Air Cannon hit Crocodile right in the chest, sending him slapping back into the battlefield.

"Haha, thanks a lot, Big Bear!"

Ace waved his hand: "I almost let this guy get away."

Not far away, Caesar watched and shook his head: "This Crocodile is so lame, he can't even beat a little boy."

"damn it…"

The sandstorm dissipated, and Crocodile was shocked and angry.

How did things become like this?
He just came here to catch a woman, but ended up getting himself involved!
Before he could continue thinking, Ace's voice that made him extremely angry sounded again.

"fire punch!"

You don't have any other tricks, right?

Crocodile's face turned cold, he picked up the golden hook and rushed forward.

Since I can't run away, there's nothing more to say.

Dry!
boom--

The flames and the sandstorm collided again.

"fire punch!"

"fire punch!"

"Eula!"

The battle soon became intense. Ace said nothing, but just kept throwing fire punches, which made Crocodile suffer terribly!

Nami watched the two fighting and hesitated, "Are the Seven Warlords of the Sea so weak?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Caesar chuckled, "You must first remember that strength is actually linked to your spirit. Without that spirit, even the strength of the top warriors will plummet."

"As for Crocodile, he was quite capable when he was young, but he seems to have been dormant for many years since he was defeated by Whitebeard. If he could keep striving and constantly improve himself, Ace would definitely not be his opponent now."

"But a lean camel is bigger than a horse. If he can regain his faith, he will soon be among the strongest."

"So, if you, Caesar, lose your faith, you'll become as weak as that guy?"

Nami asked curiously. She couldn't imagine what Caesar would be like if he lost his faith, and deep down she didn't want to think about it.

"Do you understand what numerical values ​​are? That's true for normal people, but for someone like Big Mom Kaido, even if his strength declines, he can still kill a supernova with one punch."

Caesar couldn't help but laugh: "For most people, being a Vice Admiral or a member of the Imperial Corps is already an unattainable pinnacle of life. But for me, the strength of the Four Emperors is just the lowest limit of my growth, even if I do nothing."

"Not to mention that I don't have any beliefs to speak of. Ruling the world is my ideal, but even if I fail, there's nothing to regret. Regrets are inevitable in life..."

"No, I will definitely help you realize your dream, Caesar!" Yamato raised his hands high, full of energy.

"What a cocky guy..."

Nami curled her lips and turned to look in the direction of the battlefield.

boom--

The flames exploded and the smoke dissipated.

Ace and Crocodile are facing each other from a distance.

Crocodile was panting and looked in a mess, but Ace looked full of fighting spirit in comparison.

"You bastard, is this the only trick you have?"

"You're a Nature type, so other moves won't work on you, right? Then why should I waste my energy?"

Ace clenched his fist and threw another punch: "Fire Fist!"

Crocodile dodged, but suddenly Ace turned around, kicked his heel with flames, and stepped on Crocodile's face.

“Go…to hell!”

Being stepped on the face again, Crocodile was filled with murderous intent. He endured the powerful force and hooked Ace's back.

call--

The flames dissipated, and the golden hook slid through the flames smoothly.

"Observation and hearing color..."

Crocodile's eyes were full of unwillingness. This guy had just not shown any ability of Observation Haki, but at this critical moment he used Observation Haki to predict his attack and elementalized his body in advance!
"Rocket Punch!"

boom!
As he turned around, Ace's elbow sprayed flames, and his fist wrapped in Armament Haki slammed heavily into Crocodile's face!

Crocodile flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground, his mouth wide open, his eyes rolled back, and he had already lost consciousness.

"Win!"

Deuce swung his fist.

"Huh... This guy is weaker than I thought?"

Ace breathed a sigh of relief, acting like it was nothing. "Your physical skills are terrible! You rely too much on your fruit abilities, idiot!"

Caesar rolled his eyes.

If I hadn't taught you how to practice, your dependence on the fruit would be even more serious than his, right?
But he didn't give this guy any face. It was inevitable that a young boy would be a little excited after defeating a well-known strong man. He pretended to be like this when he defeated Jhin.

Let him pretend this time...

At best, I can wait until the next time this kid challenges me to face reality.

click-

Caesar took out his camera to capture the victory or defeat at this moment. He planned to send the photo to the navy and Morgans to spread the word among his men.

Then Caesar took out the seastone and handcuffed Crocodile, waved his hand, and motioned Barto to come forward.

"Girls, stay away! Come on! Barto! Take this guy's pants off!"

"what?!"

Barto was stunned: "Take off your pants? Why?"

"Huh!!!"

Nami looked disgusted: "You guy, you don't even let men go?"

"I'll beat you to death!"

Caesar's mouth twitched as he explained, "This guy is a well-known figure on the sea, and he has quite a bit of assets!"

"Oh——I searched so hard~"

Nami raised the corner of her mouth in a sinister arc, and Caesar also smiled maliciously. The two looked at each other and let out a burst of wicked laughter.

Everyone: "..."
