Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

He held the slightly crimson demon sword, Muramasa Sandai, pointing it directly at Rocks: "Since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"

The moment the words left his mouth, he charged toward Rocks.

After all, the black-haired swordsman was also a wanted criminal with only a few tens of millions less bounty than him, so he naturally wouldn't be careless and would test the waters first...

"You still haven't said how much your bounty is, never mind..."

Lox smirked as he looked at the approaching opponent and said slowly, "Although I don't know how much your bounty is, you're too impatient. Are you affected by that demonic sword in your hand?"

"If that's the case, then I think you probably can't use this Seven Star Sword..."

A sharp, murderous glint appeared in Lox's eyes as he met the opponent's attack with a slash!

Clang!

The next second, the sound of metal clashing rang out as two black swords collided, instantly sparking a shower of sparks.

The two swords clashed, their domineering auras clashed, and their forces resisted each other!

Centered on the two individuals, the earth cracked open at that moment, and the resulting debris was carried away by the shockwave like bullets...

The impact was even more intense and powerful than the clash with Sauron, as this collision was imbued with Haki, making its destructive power even more astonishing!

Having blocked the force of the sword strike, Rocks grinned coldly: "Has anyone ever told you? You're actually quite weak!"

The opponent was stronger than Sauron before, but that was all; in his eyes, he was still very weak...

Chapter 118 One Punch Kills and Subdues the Seven Star Sword!

'boom!'

After saying that, Rocks had a thought, and the power of the Hollow Bullet instantly erupted, exploding from the center of the clash of swords.

The burst of power deflected Aaronda's demon sword, Muramasa Sandai, and forced him to retreat several steps...

'boom!'

Without waiting for the other party to make the next move.

Rocks' eyes narrowed, and a demonic aura of Conqueror's Haki erupted from his body, pressing forward.

The powerful Conqueror's Haki assaulted Aaronda's mind at close range, causing him to momentarily lose focus and reveal an opening...

"A serious punch!"

At that very moment, Rocks stepped forward.

He had already gathered his domineering aura in his left arm and unleashed a punch that slammed into Aaronda's chest.

The jet-black fist was illuminated with a faint glow, exuding an aura of dominance, and the air around the fist's edge rippled with subtle movements.

I don't care what kind of "demon sword" Aaronda you are.

Since you dare to attack him, then face his attack head-on.

Rocks never holds back against his enemies; this was a punch delivered with almost full power!

"you……"

In that instant, Aaronda's expression changed drastically as he sensed the approaching premonition of death.

It terrified him, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints...

This guy is terrifying.

The moment she deflected him, she unleashed her Conqueror's Haki, catching him off guard and causing him to momentarily lose focus, thus revealing an opening...

The other party was too decisive.

The attack followed immediately, and it was an attack of this caliber right from the start.

He had no chance to dodge and could only watch helplessly as the fist drew closer and closer.

All one can do is instantly activate Armament Haki for defense.

They attempted to withstand Rocks' attack.

At that moment, a thought inexplicably welled up in his mind—why was the opponent using his fists? Wasn't the opponent famous as a swordsman?

No one would explain the reason to him, and there wasn't enough time...

'boom!!'

As Rocks' fist landed, a deafening roar resounded.

Even more powerful air ripples rippled continuously, the emerald green light of the projectile became increasingly dazzling, and this time the Armament Haki flowed outwards successfully...

Faced with such a powerful attack, Zephyr had to be extremely careful and dared not use his body to resist it easily.

And for Aaronda, who revealed her weakness, the outcome may already be predetermined...

'Snap!'

Amidst the terrifying roar, the sound of bones shattering was also clearly audible.

Aaronda's hastily activated Haki defense was unable to withstand this terrifying punch and was shattered.

Although much of the force of the punch was neutralized, Aaronda still felt as if he had been struck hard in the chest with a sledgehammer, and his body stiffened as if struck by lightning.

Immediately afterwards, a penetrating fist force surged into his body, causing damage.

The internal organs all looked like they had been broken into pieces.

With a "whoosh," Aaronda coughed up a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs.

Immediately afterwards, a burst of violent power erupted, sending his body flying backwards like a cannonball.

With a series of booming sounds, it crashed through many towering trees in that direction, finally slamming heavily onto a distant mountain peak.

The impact dented the mountainside, and the body became embedded in the dent.

The impact also caused the mountain to tremble slightly, and pieces of rock rolled down from the summit...

……

Quiet.

An eerie silence fell over the room.

Everyone stared blankly at what had just happened, wondering if they were hallucinating...

Those who recognized "Demon Blade" Aaronda gasped in shock: "That's... the 'Demon Blade' Aaronda with a bounty of 510 million Berries, right? How could he... be sent flying so easily?"

He couldn't really see things clearly because things happened too fast.

The scene was already chaotic, and he was so focused on retreating that he didn't look until the commotion started.

I saw "Demon Blade" Aaronda charge towards someone, and then the next second he was sent flying backward at an even faster speed...

A powerful figure with a bounty of 500 million Berries was no match for that person!?

Someone recognized Rocks' identity, and their tone became extremely shocked: "The Black-Haired Swordsman! That person is the Black-Haired Swordsman! He actually came too, and he made such an exaggerated move right from the start!"

The other person took a deep breath: "Two big shots have arrived all at once, and one of them even blasted the other away..."

"The bounty for the 'Demon Blade' is higher than that for the 'Black-Haired Swordsman,' right? How could this be..."

"A person's strength is only a reference. The black-haired swordsman is a strongman who can fight against the former admiral Zephyr. There must be something wrong with the 450 million Berry bounty. The other party is definitely worth more than that!"

"The reason why the Demon Blade's bounty exceeds 500 million is because he massacred several towns and ultimately destroyed a branch base. Although he is very strong, it is mainly because the things he did were too heinous..."

"But this is too exaggerated. Is Aaronda really going to lose like this?"

A murmur of discussion arose in the room, with people expressing their amazement and shock at the scene before them...

The sudden appearance of two high-ranking figures with such large bounties is enough to shake many people.

Not to mention, the two even got into a fight, and one of them easily blasted the other flying...

This had quite a visual impact on them!

They all looked at Rocks with awe and fear.

Many people previously felt that the events described in the newspapers were somewhat exaggerated.

How could a newcomer, fresh out of school, possibly fight a seasoned general without being at a disadvantage?

It must be that "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks escaped from Zephyr's clutches through some means.

As a result, the World Economic News reported the matter in an "exaggerated" manner.

The World Economic News newspaper has also published reports that exaggerate the facts.

It's all for the sake of newspaper sales.

Having witnessed this scene, no one present would doubt the authenticity of the newspaper anymore...

"Black-haired swordsman" Rocks is indeed a terrifyingly strong man who can fight against former general "Black Arm" Zephyr!

The bounty of 450 million Berries was undoubtedly a huge blunder!

……

"I don't know if you're unlucky or lucky."

Ignoring the surrounding chatter, Locke looked at Aaronda, who was embedded in the mountainside.

He twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "This time, your domineering aura actually worked. You didn't lose unjustly..."

I don't know if this guy's luck is good or bad.

He actually managed to unleash a punch using the outward flow of Armament Haki.

This made his punch even more powerful.

If you take his punch head-on, he'll be seriously injured, if not killed.

If the opponent has a health bar, this punch would probably leave them with very low health...

Anyway, Rocks didn't think the other side had the strength to fight again.

One punch and he's dead!

Rocks shook his head: "This is what happens when you're not careful enough. Hmm, it's also because you're really too weak. If you were stronger, this punch wouldn't have been enough to defeat you..."

The opponent actually has some strength, a bit stronger than that major general in Rogge Town.
