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

Jig's expression turned grave; he thought to himself, "This is really troublesome."

The man in the suit was surprised that Xiong could actually stand up and speak. He raised an eyebrow and said,

"You must be that brat from the Bakania tribe. You're quite physically fit."

As he spoke, he put his hands in his pockets and walked step by step toward Giggs and the others, saying as he went.

"What have you four little devils been doing, sneaking around like this ever since you entered the city instead of running for your lives? That's really suspicious."

Ivan rushed to Gig and the bear, opened his arms, and shouted,

"You won't hurt them!"

The man in the suit didn't take Ivan seriously at all. He slowly raised a hand, and Ivan instinctively closed his eyes. Suddenly, Giger spoke.

"You're not qualified to attack us, are you? Only the Celestial Dragons are qualified to kill us now. Do you want to break the rules?!"

The man in the suit's hand hovered in mid-air. Although he was annoyed by being yelled at by a slave, what Gigg said was indeed to the point.

He was indeed not qualified to attack Giger and the others; these were all his masters' valuable points.

But these four little devils are really suspicious. Just now, I almost let that Bakania kid into the house behind him. You can't go into that house!

If the contents inside are lost, he won't be able to save his life.

After a moment's thought, he spat on the ground and said impatiently,

"Forget it, you're just four brats. You won't live much longer anyway, so get lost and stop loitering around here!"

Upon hearing this, Giger didn't hesitate for a second. He and Ivankini helped the bear up and left in the other direction without looking back.

On the way, Ivan lowered his head and whispered to Giger,

“Gig, that house…”

Giger understood Ivan's meaning, and he said decisively,

There must be a Devil Fruit in that house!

As he said this, Giger tried hard to suppress his excitement, afraid that he might suddenly have a relapse.

The man in the suit was clearly trying to cover something up. Anyone with a brain would know that there must be something important in that house, and what else could it be but a Devil Fruit?

Ginny didn't show much excitement upon hearing the news; she frowned and said...

"But with that person there, how are we supposed to get in? And Bear Cub is so badly injured this time..."

Xiong tried to say something, but all he could do was cough uncontrollably. Ivan, supporting Xiong, said with a grim expression,

"That bastard! He actually beat the bear up like this!"

Hearing the bear cough, Giger felt uneasy. He clenched his fists and said coldly,

"I promise I'll make that guy pay the price."

"Boom boom boom!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of explosions rang out, and thick smoke began to billow into the sky above the town.

Immediately afterwards, a loud roar resounded through the sky.

"You bastards of the Heavenly Dragon Sect! Are you ready to face my wrath!?"

Gigg was not surprised but delighted. There was only one person who dared to curse the Celestial Dragons like that, and that was Rocks!

In the palace in the center of town, Satan, one of the Five Elders, changed his expression and disappeared in the next second, appearing outside the palace.

Sensing the approaching, terrifying auras, Saint Satan took out a Den Den Mushi and said in a deep voice,

"King Garin, immediately lead the Knights of God back to defend the royal city! The Rocks Pirates have arrived!"

The Den Den Mushi responded quickly.

"Okay, leave it to us."

Shortly after the Rocks Pirates arrived at God Valley, several naval warships followed closely behind. Fleet Admiral Kong was the first to disembark from the warship and, along with Garp and other naval officers and soldiers, chased after the Rocks Pirates.

However, the Navy was a step too slow; the Rocks Pirates had already arrived in the town where Gigg was located.

Lox and his group landed on a street. Lox, who was in the lead, looked up at the royal city located in the center, and Satan also looked in the same direction.

Their eyes met, and without saying a word, Lockes threw a punch at the royal city from a distance.

A surge of red and black energy mixed with arcs of electricity burst forth from his fist, blasting everything in its path, whether people or objects, into dust.

Satan Saint's expression was somewhat unpleasant. His strength was certainly not weak, but compared to Lox, he was still far inferior.

Faced with Rocks's fierce punch, he wanted to dodge, but there were still many weak Celestial Dragons in the palace. If he dodged, it would be a case of one dying and the whole family dying.

"Tear!"

Satan Saint's lower body clothing suddenly ripped apart, revealing eight jet-black spider legs, a pair of black bull horns growing from his head, and his entire body swelled up considerably.

He raised his cane and braced himself to meet Rocks' attack. The moment they touched, the ground beneath him collapsed, and he was forced to retreat. Just when he was about to be overwhelmed, the commander of the Knights of God, Garin Saint, finally arrived and shattered the attack with a single strike.

Seeing his attack blocked, Rocks just smiled contemptuously. He had plenty of time to deal with these Celestial Dragons today.

In a small alley not far behind him, Giger and his companions witnessed everything that had just happened. The power of a max-level expert was truly terrifying.

Bear and Ginny were speechless with shock at Rocks' power, and Ivan's voice trembled.

"That...that's the legendary Captain Rocks! He can cause such destruction with just one punch, he's a monster!"

This was the first time that Gigg had actually witnessed a top-tier fighter in the One Piece world in action, and the shock he felt was far beyond what reading the manga could provide.

But he felt no fear; instead, his blood began to boil involuntarily. This abnormal situation left him completely bewildered. He had been deliberately controlling his emotions, but it felt like he was having another episode!

Chapter 6 The battle begins!

"Ok?"

Lockes and his companions were incredibly perceptive; this barely perceptible disturbance immediately caught their attention, and they quickly spotted Giggs and his three companions peeking out from the alleyway.

Upon seeing that they were just a few children, the Rocks Pirates immediately lost interest.

Lingling chuckled lightly: "Oh, so they're just a few brats. Even brats like them have been captured and used as prey?"

Lockes, however, stroked his chin and scanned Gigg with a look of keen interest.

"That brat is interesting. Was that fighting spirit just now? After witnessing my strength, does he still want to fight me?"

Giger was no longer concerned about the attention of Lox and the others; he was clutching his heart tightly, cursing under his breath.

"Damn it, what's going on? Slow down!!"

When Ivan and the other two saw Giger's condition, they panicked and thought he was having a "relapse".

However, Giger felt no weakness whatsoever; instead, he felt intense excitement. In short, he wanted to grab a brick and take down Lox.

In fact, his strength was now extraordinary. He covered his chest with one hand and gripped the wall with the other, which he had actually crushed.

This was the first time such an unusual situation had occurred, and Giger was already thinking...

"Could this be a final burst of energy before death?!"

Over there, Lox had already withdrawn his gaze. Gigg had only piqued his slight interest. In front of him, the Knights of God led by Saint Garin and Saint Satan were eyeing this place covetously.

He shook his neck a few times and said casually,

"Newgate, how about using your abilities to give those Celestial Dragons a little something to say when you meet them?"

Newgate, with his long blond hair, took a step forward, clenched his right fist, and a semi-transparent white halo appeared before he slammed it down.

"Crack!"

A sound like a mirror shattering rang out, and several cracks spread from Newgate's fist. In an instant, the entire Valley of the Gods shook violently, and houses collapsed.

This is the power of the Paramecia-type Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and in the hands of Newgate, who is now in his prime, its power has been brought to its ultimate expression.

The bear behind them had already used its body to shield Giger and the other two, blocking the constantly collapsing bricks and stones.

However, the ensuing earthquake began to alter the terrain, and the bear, carrying Giger and the other two, rolled away until they were buried under a pile of rocks.

At the royal palace, Saint Garin has already ordered several members of the Knights of God to rescue the Celestial Dragons.

Newgate's attack was actually less powerful than Rocks' initial punch, but it caused far more trouble. That punch must have killed countless weak Celestial Dragons.

Satan Saint couldn't hold back any longer. He had been stalling for time because he knew that the God Knights here alone would probably have a hard time fighting against the Rocks Pirates, not to mention that he also had to spare some attention to rescue the Celestial Dragons. So he had to wait for the Navy to arrive.

Finally, just as he was getting impatient, the Marines led by Fleet Admiral Kong arrived. Garp shouted,

"Where is Roger?!"

He was enjoying his vacation, and if Sengoku hadn't told him that Roger would also be showing up, he wouldn't have bothered with the Celestial Dragons' nonsense.

Sengoku, still a general, pulled him back and said in a deep voice.

"Forget about Roger for now. Look, the entire Rocks Pirates are here. Things are probably going to be more troublesome than we anticipated!"

General Zefa looked around and saw only ruins everywhere. He frowned and said...

"Was that Newgate's ability just now? The destructive power is terrifying."

Rocks was not surprised by the arrival of the navy. He looked at the navy opposite him and said with a mocking expression,

"Oh, so you're a Celestial Dragon's dog after all, coming to protect your master, huh?"
