Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

At the same time, Armament Haki instantly covered the area and began to flow and surge, transforming into a defense!

'Boom!'

Rocks' fists slammed down with unstoppable force, striking the invisible, flowing Armament Haki.

The two powerful auras clashed and collided, creating a deafening explosion.

'Crackling crackling...'

The dark purple lightning pulsed at the point of impact, producing a sonic boom.

'Snap!'

How could Aokiji's hastily summoned Haki possibly withstand Rocks's enraged attack?

They were instantly defeated!

Then, Rocks' fists continued their momentum, slamming heavily into the ice crystal shield and shattering it with a crisp cracking sound...

Then, though the force was somewhat reduced, his fists still slammed into Aokiji's chest.

'boom!'

Faced with this fierce attack, even Aokiji's Iron Body, one of his final six defensive techniques, could not withstand it.

Two fist marks were punched into his chest, and the force of the punch sent Aokiji flying.

In mid-air, Aokiji coughed up blood and flew backward from the Black Demon like a cannonball.

Finally, with a loud 'boom,' it crashed onto the frozen ice surface not far away, creating a huge crater.

The ice surface broke apart and cracks spread outwards...

"Elbaf Spear - Mighty Kingdom!"

Rocks was still furious.

He used his Observation Haki to pinpoint Aokiji's location, and then gripped the Seven Star Sword that was tucked at his waist.

He swung his sword heavily in that direction, unleashing a terrifying spiral shockwave!

'Boom!'

The spiral shockwave instantly spanned a distance of 100 meters, containing the power of a phantom and displaying an emerald green color.

The impact struck the crater created in the ice, which was where Aokiji was located...

Bombardment! Penetration!

The solid ice surface shattered under this attack, and the spiral shockwave tore through the ice and poured into the seabed.

The ice surface shattered into pieces, and water splashed up with chunks of ice...

"Whoosh..."

After unleashing his ultimate attack three times, Rocks was also panting, indicating that he had expended a considerable amount of energy.

He didn't pay any attention to that, and instead looked at Robin, who was standing there in a daze: "Are you alright, Robin? That guy didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"..."

Robin stared blankly at Rocks.

Seeing the other person's still angry face and concerned expression, she was deeply moved.

A warm feeling flowed through my heart...

The other person really cares about her...

She gently shook her head: "I'm fine, Captain, I'm sorry to have worried you..."

"It's good that you're alright!"

Rocks was relieved to see that Robin was indeed unharmed.

Then I stared at the patch of ice in front of me, which was now broken into pieces.

The anger in Lox's heart had not completely dissipated: "That damned guy dared to bully my people, he's got a death wish!"

Robin pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble..."

She still felt somewhat guilty.

If it weren't for her, Aokiji wouldn't have come here...

At the same time, she was also very worried: could someone like her really stay with Rocks?

Is her fate, as Aokiji said, to be forever living a life on the run?

"What trouble? You're my partner; anyone who dares to harm you is my enemy!"

Rocks glanced at Robin's expression and could glean some clues from it.

The anger that had subsided slightly flared up again: "Did that guy say something to you?"

"Using our security to threaten you?"

"..."

Robin didn't say anything.

He probably didn't know what to say...

Seeing this, Lockes was furious and cursed, "Damn it, you wait here. That guy actually dared to say such things. I'll go beat him up and avenge you!"

'Wow!'

The expression on Lox's face was one of anger and menacing intent.

With a light step, he charged forward, using his Observation Haki to pinpoint Aokiji's location.

The attack just now did injure Aokiji, but a Marine Admiral is not going to be defeated so easily...

Robin: "!?"

They tried to stop Rocks, but he had already disappeared.

Her mouth dropped open, and she didn't know what to do for a moment...

"You're making me very angry right now, Aokiji!"

Rocks looked at Aokiji, whose body was solidifying on the ice, his clothes torn, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and two faint fist marks visible on his chest...

His murderous aura intensified, and he coldly said, "Even a naval admiral can't bully my comrades. I'm furious right now..."

'Boom boom boom!'

Rocks unleashed a ferocious, demonic Conqueror's Haki that swirled the surrounding air.

Lox didn't bother with words, and immediately slashed down with his sword: "Extreme Slash!"

'Boom!'

The emerald green slash collided with the large bird formed from ice crystals in mid-air, shattering the slash and sending ice fragments flying.

The two attacks collided and exploded in mid-air...

"The Black-Haired Swordsman" Rocks...

Standing on the ice, radiating an aura of icy coldness, Aokiji finally got a clear look at Rocks' face.

After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he narrowed his eyes: "So that's how it is. Nico Robin has joined your ranks."

Nicole Robin has actually joined their ranks...

Doesn't the other party know about Nicole Robin's situation?

No, it should be that they don't care!

"none of your business?"

Rocks snorted coldly.

The Seven Star Sword unleashed a vibrant green slash, followed closely by a tap of its foot...

Aokiji: "..."

Is this guy really that irritable?

Where is the caution mentioned in the intelligence?

"Ice Block - Two-Spiked Spear!"

Faced with the incoming slash, Aokiji casually swung his hand.

The cold air surged and condensed, transforming into several ice spears that lashed out at Lox, who was attacking!

'boom!'

The slash collided with an ice spear in mid-air, both shattering simultaneously with a deafening explosion...

'Boom boom boom!'

Lox's fingertip tapping.

Several basketball-sized phantom bullets collided with the ice spear, exploding and intercepting it completely...

With that next step, Rocks appeared not far from Aokiji as if teleporting through space.

With a flick of his Seven Star Sword, a vibrant green slash unleashed once more!

'laugh……'

Aokiji's body was split in two, without any blood splattering, turning into an ice statue that shattered and cracked...

"You can calm down now, Black-haired Swordsman..."

In front of Rocks, ice crystals flowed and transformed into the figure of Aokiji.

He remained calm, raising his right hand to press down on Lox.

The palm contains an extremely cold energy, enough to freeze any substance...

"I told you, I'm furious right now!"

Rocks' Observation Haki surged wildly, foreshadowing danger.

If he were touched by this arm, he would be frozen into an ice sculpture...
