One Piece: Starting with God Valley, intercepting the Dark-Dark Fruit

Lingling narrowed her eyes slightly and said,

"That brat..."

Roger's face lit up with surprise, and he said,

"Just as I expected, he also possesses this qualification!"

The Roger Pirates were all happy about Shanks' awakening, except for Bullet, who only glanced at him before looking away.

In his view, Shanks, who had awakened Conqueror's Haki, was still not enough to warrant his attention.

Katakuri had already awakened Conqueror's Haki, so he was only slightly surprised.

Roger and Lingling seemed to be making a fuss over nothing.

But is this really the case?

It's important to know that both of them have cultivated their Conqueror's Haki to the point where it can be used to entangle enemies, especially Roger, whose Conqueror's Haki can even cause substantial damage when released.

Roger could sense that Shanks' Conqueror's Haki was extremely "pure," a true kingly quality!

Once this Conqueror's Haki is awakened, the speed at which one can cultivate it will reach a level that is beyond the reach of others. Roger was absolutely certain of this, because he himself was in this situation.

Given time, Shanks will surely catch up with, or even surpass, him, after all, he doesn't have much time left to live.

(Personally, I think Conqueror's Haki does have different grades, and awakening it will accelerate the training speed. The higher the grade, the faster the training. Refer to Shanks, the youngest of the Four Emperors in the original work, and the protagonist Luffy. Of course, this is just my personal opinion, and you can take it as a secondary view.)

Roger thought of Giger again. During their battle, he also sensed a level of Conqueror's Haki in Giger that was no weaker than his own. He couldn't imagine how such an arrogant feeling could appear in a Marine.

However, Giger was watching Shanks with a look of satisfaction. The reason he hadn't made a move was to see if he could force Shanks to use his Conqueror's Haki ahead of time.

In his view, Shanks' situation just now perfectly met the conditions for the awakening of Conqueror's Haki.

One is Shanks himself, who is in danger, and the other is Buggy, who is getting beaten up.

Facts have proved that his judgment was correct.

……

Cracker, momentarily dazed by Shanks' Conqueror's Haki, was now staring intently at Shanks with eyes full of jealousy and resentment, gritting his teeth as he spoke...

"How dare someone like you awaken Conqueror's Haki? You don't deserve it!"

He ignored Bucky, who was already half-dead from the torture, and manipulated all the biscuit men to charge at Shanks.

Roger wanted to help when he saw this, but Lingling held him back.

Lingling sneered,

"Want to save that brat? Give Irving back to me first!"

Roger was so angry that he cursed.

"You stupid woman! I already said I didn't do it!"

By now, Shanks' stamina was completely depleted. Facing the charging Biscuit Man, he roared, seemingly wanting to unleash his Conqueror's Haki once more.

However, his Conqueror's Haki had only just awakened, and he couldn't control it at will. This roar only helped him to perk up a bit and didn't cause any further unusual phenomena.

At that very moment, Giger, in the distance, parted his lips slightly.

"break."

buzzing...

To Shanks's bewildered gaze, all the biscuit men suddenly began to tremble at a specific frequency, and countless cracks appeared on their bodies. Before they could even reach him, they all shattered.

Shanks looked at the cookie crumbs scattered on the ground, blinked a few times, and thought he had really released Conqueror's Haki again, but wasn't the power a bit too outrageous?

Cracker's jaw almost dropped to the ground, his face filled with disbelief.

Roger and Lingling suddenly stopped fighting and looked in the same direction at the same time.

Giger reached out and pressed his hand on Owen's head, giving it a gentle twist.

With a crisp snapping sound, Irving's head detached from his body.

Giger grabbed Irving's head and tossed it around, whispering,

"We've been found out. I was hoping to see a little more of this dog-eat-dog drama..."

The next second, Irving's head turned black and shot out like a cannonball...

Chapter 204 Giger VS Lingling

Irving's Armament Haki Iron Head accelerated continuously along the way, heading straight for Cracker.

The whooshing sound startled Cracker so much that he clapped his hands so hard they left afterimages. Several enormous biscuits shot up, forming impenetrable walls. Each of these biscuits was several meters tall and incredibly thick.

However, these incredibly hard cookies were so fragile in front of Owen's iron head, and were completely crushed to pieces, eventually crashing into Cracker and sending him flying backward toward Linlin.

Fortunately, the cookie barriers he had created earlier weren't entirely useless; they provided some cushioning, so the impact only sent him flying without endangering his life.

Lingling stretched out her big hand and blocked the chocolate bar with a snap.

Cracker's eyes rolled back, and he was holding a charred object in his arms, which could barely be made out to be a human head.

Before Lingling could even get angry, Giger had already picked up Owen's headless corpse with one hand and thrown it towards the garden. Then, he leaped up and landed steadily on the headless corpse flying at high speed, as if he were standing on a surfboard.

To everyone's astonishment, Giggs descended from the sky, stepping on Irving.

Roger frowned, staring intently at Giggs, and said,

"It's you again! You're like a persistent ghost!"

Giger shrugged and said,

"You won't see me anymore once you die, will you?"

Lingling's children saw the headless corpse under Giger's feet and confirmed from the clothing and physique that it was the missing Owen.

As the user of the Heat-Heat Fruit, he was now completely cold.

Upon seeing Zig, Bucky painstakingly reassembled his body, gritted his teeth, and approached Shanks, finally feeling a little safer.

Lingling casually tossed aside the unconscious Cracker, stared at Giger for a while, and suddenly said,

"As expected, you're that brat from God Valley back then!"

Lingling had naturally seen Giger's photos before, as they were frequent subjects in the newspaper.

When she first saw Giger's photo, she felt it looked very familiar and quickly recalled the scene in God Valley.

The reason she remembered it so vividly was because of the Paw-Paw Fruit. If Gigg hadn't interfered, the Paw-Paw Fruit would have been hers.

It's truly ironic how fate works; that little brat who looked like an ant in her eyes back then has now become a Marine Admiral.

Giger smiled, opened his palm, and a dark vortex appeared in his palm, instantly sucking in the cracker that Lingling had thrown aside.

Lingling was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to react, Giger snapped Cracker's head off with a snap and tossed it behind him. Cracker's head rolled to Shanks' feet.

From the moment Giggs appeared until now, Shanks had been staring blankly at Giggs's back until Krieg's head rolled over, at which point he snapped out of his daze.

Bucky, who was standing to the side, was startled at first. Then he remembered how Cracker had tortured him earlier, and he was immediately filled with rage. He raised his foot and stomped on it hard, grinding it several times.

Shanks ignored the crazed Bucky and opened his mouth as if to say something, but was interrupted by Linlin's scream.

"You bastard! How dare you kill Cracker right in front of me!!!"

Lingling was furious. She never expected that Giger would be so "uncivilized," attacking without even giving a warning beforehand, and targeting Cracker who had already lost consciousness.

This was truly the first time she had ever encountered a naval admiral with this kind of style of operation!

Faced with Lingling's anger, Giger merely frowned slightly and said unhappily,

Why are you shouting so loudly?

These words completely ignited Lingling's anger. She raised her hand and, without saying a word, the fireball Prometheus merged directly with her hair. Zeus transformed into a dark thundercloud and quickly flew over Gige.

Lingling roared, grabbed the flaming Napoleon, and flashed in front of Giger, bringing it down on his head.

"Blade Mother Flame!!!"

call!

A terrifying sea of ​​fire erupted from Napoleon, instantly engulfing Giger, and the air itself became distorted by the intense heat.

Seeing this, Lingling's children revealed mocking smiles and said,

"Damn the navy, may you turn to ashes in Mother's wrath!"

The Roger Pirates watched calmly. Having fought Gigg before, they were quite familiar with his strength. However, whether this level of attack could even break Gigg's defenses was still an unknown.

Soon, the smiles on the faces of the Big Mom Pirates froze, and they all stared in astonishment at the black figure that flashed out from the sea of ​​fire.

With his hands in his pockets, Giger strolled leisurely out of the raging flames.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it in the flame behind him, took a drag, and exhaled a long wisp of smoke, looking quite content.

This gesture was undoubtedly a resounding slap in the face to the Big Mom Pirates.

Lingling, refusing to believe it, threw several more huge fireballs at Jig, but without exception, Jig remained unharmed.

It's important to know that Gigg, who possesses the bloodline factor of the Lunaria race, is a true "fire-immune" physique. Soaking in flames is no different from taking a bath for him.

Seeing this, Lingling was so angry that she trembled all over, her teeth were grinding, and the veins on the back of her hand holding Napoleon's were bulging.
