Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

……

At this time, there were other people present at the port location of Dock No. 1.

Regarding the Tyrant Dragon Pirates' domineering and ferocious nature, some people are indignant, some are worried, and some are calm and composed.

Especially a man with a pigeon perched on his shoulder.

He concealed his presence and was inconspicuous in the crowd.

CP9 agents.

Rob Lucci, known as "the strongest in CP9 history".

Rob Lucci watched everything unfolding before him with a calm expression, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He pondered to himself, 'The Seven Warlords of the Sea, huh? They're truly a bunch of destabilizing individuals.'

'However, it's not without its downsides; perhaps after this experience, Esbag's guard will lower.'

'The chances of finding the blueprints for "Pluto" are much greater...'

He wouldn't care what happened as long as their mission wasn't disrupted.

This might actually lower Espargo's guard, allowing them to find the blueprints for Pluto, one of the ancient weapons, more quickly...

I've been undercover here for two years and haven't gotten anything out of it.

Forced by the orders of a foolish superior, he could only plan step by step.

It's still unknown when the mission will be completed.

If only this could be a catalyst...

"This is blatant sexual harassment..."

Kalifa, also a member of CP9, looked at the "Tyrannosaurus Rex" Hanafuda, pushed up her glasses, and showed a look of disgust in her eyes.

Her voice was very soft and hidden in the crowd, so she wouldn't be noticed.

For an excellent agent, caution and concealment are ingrained in their very being.

There was only one other CP9 member, Kaku, next to her...

……

Ten minutes later.

In the sealed-off No. 1 dock port, a tall, slender figure slowly walked towards this direction.

The footsteps weren't loud, but they were so clearly heard in the oppressive, solemn, and quiet harbor...

"Oh? They don't seem to be a bunch of cowards..."

Hanafuda heard footsteps immediately and paused in his drinking motion.

His gaze swept over, and a sinister grin spread across his face: "Hahaha, this is really interesting, so very interesting!"

"They actually came..."

Aisbagu also looked over, and upon seeing the person, he couldn't hide the guilt on his face.

If Hanafuda hadn't been watching, he would have wanted to warn the owners of the Black Demon not to come and die...

When it was targeted by one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the fate of the Black Demon was perhaps already sealed.

The master of the Black Demon can't change anything...

There aren't that many "Fire Fist" Ace or "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks on this sea. To defeat or kill even a Shichibukai...

Most of the Carrera company members and boatmen also showed similar expressions to Espargo.

While sympathizing with the owner of the Black Demon, I am also angry at the actions of the Tyrant Dragon Pirates.

But there's nothing they can do.

There was nothing we could do...

The title of the Seven Warlords of the Sea completely overwhelmed them!

"Ok?"

The CP9 members in the corner, however, felt a vague sense of familiarity when they saw Rocks wearing sunglasses...

"This face...could it be...?"

Kaku, with his long, rectangular nose, stared at Lox's face, a sudden idea flashing through his mind.

His eyes widened in astonishment and confusion, and he hesitated before whispering, "The 'Black-Haired Swordsman' Rocks, with a bounty of 450 million Berries!?"

"Even with sunglasses on, his handsome face was still undeniable."

Kalifa pushed up her glasses.

She was in charge of intelligence within CP9 and confirmed Kaku's guess: "It really is 'Black-haired Swordsman' Rocks, heh... It seems 'Tyrant Dragon' Hanafuda is going to kick a hornet's nest..."

"..."

Only Rob Lucci remained silent.

His brows furrowed slightly.

He certainly couldn't possibly be unaware of the name "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks.

A powerful figure who defeated Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and fought to a draw with former Admiral Zephyr.

This was reported in the newspaper not long ago.

The ship that "Tyrant Dragon" Hanafuda has its eye on actually belongs to "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks?

This is getting interesting!

"Wow, it's so quiet? What are you all doing?"

Lockes walked slowly over, his gaze sweeping across the harbor before settling on a burly man sitting in a prominent position.

"I heard someone's trying to steal my Dark Devil account? Is it you?"

"Hahaha, that's right, it's me!"

Upon hearing Lox's words, Hanafuda laughed instead.

He bluntly admitted, "But you're wrong. It's my ship. The moment I set my sights on it, it became my property..."

'Wow!'

'boom!!'

In Hanafuda's sight, Locke, who was a dozen meters away, suddenly disappeared.

The next moment, Hanafuda felt as if her head had been hit hard by a hammer...

You will see it if you play it in slow speed.

Hanafuda's left cheek was twisted and dented by Rocks's whip kick, and his head was tilted to one side by the force of the kick...

Followed by.

Hanafuda felt an overwhelming pain coming from his head and cheeks, followed by a surge of superhuman strength.

The immense force blasted Hanafuda's massive body away, sending it flying like a cannonball towards a certain location...

Its body traced a path, and with a final 'boom,' it smashed the debris in that direction, sending it flying in all directions...

"You think your things are yours just because you say so? Do you think I'm made of clay?"

Rocks sat down in the same spot where he had sat on Hanafuda, his posture even more domineering than before.

It's like a king taking his seat on his own throne.

Looking at the location where the hanafuda had flown backward, Locke curled his lip and said, "I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you in my entire life."

"Being domineering is fine, but trying to be domineering towards me? You're asking for trouble, aren't you?"

"Neither Zephyr nor Aokiji would dare to talk to me like that!"

"..."

This all happened too fast.

Everyone stared blankly at Rocks, who was sitting in his seat, their eyes wide with disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost...

what happened?

They only felt a blur before their eyes.

Then there's Hanafuda, which they consider untouchable and incredibly powerful...

He was just sent flying like that!?

Everyone was still in a daze, completely bewildered!

'boom!'

Gravel and debris were blown away by a tremendous force, and the flower cards rose from the ground.

His left cheek was swollen and black, and a trickle of blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth...

"You bastard..."

Hanafuda felt the stinging pain on his face, his mind still a little dazed.

But the anger and murderous intent in his eyes were so obvious...

This guy... actually managed to hurt him!

Unforgivable!

"who are you?"

However, Hanafuda did not make any rash moves at this moment. This guy was not simple; his speed was so fast that even he did not have time to react...

The other party is no ordinary person!

"How should I put it? She's someone you shouldn't mess with, right?"

Lockes said calmly.

Then, staring at Hanafuda's swollen face, he grinned and said, "But you're pretty tough. Although I didn't use Haki in the rush, I didn't hold back much either."
