Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

The reason he previously judged the Great Demon to be "harmful" was because the Great Demon had almost "drained" him.

This caused immense psychological trauma to Rocks, who had just transmigrated at the time...

From that time on, Lox was extremely wary of the Great Demon...

As his consciousness detached from the mental world, Lox said to his companions, "Now that things here are resolved, it's time for us to leave."

Stay here?

no need.

He had nothing to talk about with the Dressrosa royal family.

As for the destruction here...

His factors were involved.

But the World Government, Kaido, and others also have them.

Without these people's involvement, this place wouldn't have been destroyed like this...

Anyway, Rocks did save Dressrosa, and Dressrosa owes him a huge favor. Let's use that favor to offset the damage he caused here...

We're even!

Rocks had no time to worry about anything else.

He's a good person, but not a pushover.

This matter needs to be handled by the Dressrosa royal family.

If he's still implicated by the World Government, then... it's like he'll destroy the World Government later, which would be revenge for them...

*Sizzle!*

As Rocks tore through space and was about to leave, he turned to Sabo, who was not far away, and said:

"Our ship is docked on the east coast. We haven't finished discussing the previous deal yet. By the way, thank you for your help."

Sabo replied, "Yes, Lord Lox, we will keep our appointment."

"Ah."

Lockes nodded.

He then led the others back to the Black Demon.

"call……"

Seeing the members of the Blackwing Demon Adventurer Group leave, Sabo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The Blackwing Demon from just now was really scary.

What is that power?

I still feel terrified when I think about it now.

That power was beyond his imagination; even Kaido, the "King of the Beasts," and the "King of the World" were suppressed...

The Blackwing Demon is too powerful!

"Let's go find Koala and Haku first. They should have found the former royal family of Dressrosa, right? They were probably stunned by that 'King of the World's' Conqueror's Haki earlier..."

Sabo unleashed his Observation Haki, locked onto a location, and charged towards it...

He learned a lot from this trip and gained some insight into the inner workings of the world government.

He even made a deal with Nicole Robin.

This trip was very fruitful!

He also needs to communicate with the previous royal family of Dressrosa to clarify some things...

……

Rocks and the others returned to the Black Demon.

The others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Rocks and the others had returned safely...

Nami asked nervously, "Xiao Luo, what happened to you just now? I sensed that your aura had become terrifying and evil!"

Although she was on the Black Demon, Nami's Observation Haki was enough to cover the entire island.

They sensed the appearance of the Knights of God, the appearance of Im, and the change in the aura emanating from Rocks...

If Robin hadn't told her to calm down, she definitely would have turned into lightning and charged over there.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and Rocks and the others seemed to be alright, which put Nami at ease...

Rocks patted Nami on the head and said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's just that the great demon inside her caused a ruckus."

Nami exclaimed in realization, "No wonder..."

Many people on the ship knew about the peculiarity of Rocks' abilities; there was a demon within him, a demon that could potentially cause Rocks to "go berserk."

So, did Rocks just "go berserk"?

Xiao Yi handed over the recovery medicine: "Captain, here's your medicine!"

"Thank you, Xiao Yi."

Actually, Rocks wasn't injured; rather, he recovered entirely thanks to his super-fast regeneration.

However, the consumption of physical strength and domineering aura is also considerable...

Now, Rocks is also feeling somewhat tired.

Xiao Yi's recovery medicine can speed up the recovery of physical strength and reduce fatigue.

Seeing Lox swallow the recovery potion, Xiao Yi was very happy: "You're welcome, it's what Xiao Yi should do!"

Lox smiled and ruffled Little Yi's hair.

Perona floated over and boasted to Rocks, "Boss, you have to praise me too! I just stopped Electro-Girl from causing trouble over there!"

To prevent Nami from causing trouble, she subtly gave Nami a negative phantom.

Yes, there's definitely some personal grudge involved...

She desperately needs a powerful backer!

Rocks smiled and said, "You did the right thing. If Nami dares to retaliate against you, come to me and I'll stand up for you."

"hey-hey……"

Perona grinned foolishly at Rocks, but then raised an eyebrow at Nami, her words full of provocation, as if to say, "With the boss protecting me, you can't touch me!"

Nami: "..."

That damn ghost woman!

I really want to electrocute her!

"Horo horo horo..."

Seeing Nami's helpless and furious state, Perona was in a great mood and laughed arrogantly!

Nami: "..."

He had already begun plotting his revenge against Perona.

You'll be finished in a while, you wretched ghost woman.

'This silly girl…'

Looking at his arrogant, foolish adopted daughter, Moria couldn't help but shake his head.

I couldn't help but sigh.

This silly girl is going to suffer a lot from now on.

Miss Navigator, you even dared to hit Captain Rocks on the head, why don't you learn your lesson?

Kuina, who looked somewhat weak, asked, "What happened after we left?"

"The Conqueror's Haki from before was very strong; even from this distance, it almost made Illya faint..."

Kuina still vividly remembers the burst of Conqueror's Haki she just witnessed.

To my knowledge, no one else possesses such intensity of Conqueror's Haki...

Lox let out a breath: "A formidable opponent has arrived. If I hadn't brought out the Great Demon, I wouldn't be a match for him..."

Without the Great Demon's "Berserk" rampage, Rocks is no match for Im.

Rocks is now very fortunate.

Despite a series of unforeseen circumstances, he still emerged victorious. Without the intervention of the Great Demon, it's unclear how the situation would have unfolded...

"Who?"

"Im, the true ruler of the World Government, the King of the World..."

"King of the World?"

"This isn't even their full strength; they're merely controlling a 'human puppet.' The strength of their 'true self' probably surpasses that of all current powerhouses..."

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, those who had never seen Im in action gasped in astonishment.

The World Government actually has such a powerful figure?

"Only now have I figured out one thing: why Roger started the Great Pirate Era instead of revealing 'ONE PIECE' in its entirety."

With a smile and a sigh, he said, "I'm afraid Roger learned of the World Government's power from the 'Void Century'."

"That's why they chose to create turmoil in the ocean, thereby further weakening the World Government's power..."

"Otherwise... who else could shake the rule of the World Government?"

The eyes of Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, probably saw very, very far.

The World Government's foundation is so deep that even a powerful force like the "Sea Emperors" would find it difficult to contend with it.

It's extremely difficult to bring down this "source of darkness".

Some of Roger's actions are understandable.
