Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

How could you have such a thought?

Lockes was speechless: "Just put yourself in their shoes. Imagine some guy suddenly comes over, acts all high and mighty, beats me and Yixiao, and then swaggers away."

"If it were you, would you be grateful?"

"Uh..."

Nami realized what was going on and couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.

He felt he had said something stupid.

It's good enough that the other party doesn't hold a grudge against them, how could they possibly be grateful?

She shouldn't say whatever comes to mind anymore, or people will think she's not very bright.

She's not stupid.

It's just that I've been feeling a bit bloated lately.

Even their thoughts have turned into the mindset of "big shots"...

Robin felt it was a coincidence to encounter Kizaru: "However, we just returned from Skypiea and ran into a Marine Headquarters Admiral. Our... [unclear - possibly a reference to a character or idiom]..."

"No, I think it's quite easy to copy!"

Lox counted on his fingers and said with a smile, "I used to just think it, but now I'm completely sure."

"I do indeed possess the ability to confront a Navy Admiral head-on."

"It is important to have a clear understanding of our own abilities, as it can determine our future actions and prevent us from being as timid as before."

Strength is the foundation of confidence.

Having been able to take down Kizaru, Rocks felt even more confident.

Even if two naval admirals were to act together now, they would not back down.

One against one, two against two!

You can be a little more arrogant in the future.

No longer needing to be as timid and hesitant as I was a few months ago, and no longer needing to go to the sky island to live in seclusion for a period of time.

His journey to "not eat beef" begins now!

"Who is that important person who was defeated by the captain?"

New member Rachi didn't know Kizaru, so she asked, "He seems really strong. Are there many people like him in this ocean?"

Wapa didn't say anything, but he was very interested in it and listened attentively.

"Of course he's strong! He's a Navy Admiral, one of the Navy's top combat forces!"

Nami decided to educate her "little brothers and sisters" who had just arrived at the Grand Line about how terrifying this sea was: "And the Navy is the most powerful force on this sea..."

"..."

After listening to Nami's explanation of the Marines, Rachi and Wapa gained a general understanding.

They now know the true value of being a Navy Admiral.

They also learned just how remarkable it was that Rocks was able to defeat a Marine Headquarters Admiral.

As expected, Lord Lox is a big shot in the Blue Ocean.

No wonder he was able to kill Enel so easily...

Later, Nami mentioned the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Four Emperors.

Their understanding of this sea has greatly increased, and they are also surprised to find that it is home to so many powerful beings...

The two of them inexplicably felt immense pressure.

With their strength, can they be of any help to Lord Lox and the Blackwing Demon Adventure Group?

I haven't been practicing diligently enough...

……

A few days later.

A newspaper, broadcast by newsbirds, is noticed by people all over the world.

This newspaper carried the news that the Blackwing Demon Adventurer's party had reappeared—

[After more than seven months, the Blackwing Demon King has reappeared on the Grand Line!]

The title was so concise and clear that it immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Although more than seven months have passed.

But the name of Blackwing Daemon is not so easily forgotten.

After all, the other party has accomplished too many major feats.

Two of the Seven Warlords of the Sea died at the hands of the other side...

This is how it was described in the newspaper—

In the year 1518 of the Ocean Calendar, the Blackwing Demon Sea Monster, who had been missing for seven months, returned to the Great Sea Route!

Where has the Blackwing Demon Lord been during these seven months?

Nobody knows!

However, the fact that they have set sail again indicates that they are not afraid of the sea, but have other purposes!

And according to reliable sources.

The Blackwing Demon Sea F, setting sail once again, has set its sights on the Navy.

They attacked the warship where Admiral Kizaru Borsalino was stationed, demonstrating their vicious nature!

Although Kizaru defeated Blackwing Daimyo in this battle, he himself was also seriously injured!

In this battle, "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks displayed even more terrifying power than he had seven months earlier.

He can fight against Marine Admiral "Kizaru" Borsalino without being at a disadvantage!

So fierce and so domineering, "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks perfectly embodies the title of "most ferocious newcomer"!

No, it's no longer possible to demonstrate the opponent's strength by using newcomers!

"Black-haired swordsman" Rocks has already surpassed the category of a newcomer.

In a sense, it has even acquired some of the momentum of a "sea emperor"!

The opponent's strength, ambition, and personality... destined them not to linger for long in the first half.

The new world is their goal!

Perhaps it won't be long...

Will the sea known as the "New World" welcome another "Sea Emperor"?

The era of the Four Emperors is coming to an end; the future may well be the era of the Five Emperors!

Following a lengthy report in the newspaper was a brand-new wanted poster and additional detailed information—

Captain "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks, the captain of the Blackwing Demon Shipwrecked F.

Its ability is confirmed to be Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Beast, Blackwing Daima form.

The opponent has apparently awakened the Devil Fruit, allowing them to transform into the "Black Winged Demon"!

He possesses abilities similar to teleportation, an extraordinary self-healing power that allows him to regenerate severed limbs, a physique as strong as a monster, swordsmanship capable of rivaling the world's greatest swordsman, and terrifying physical skills that can shatter mountains...

Given the increased threat from the other side, the previous bounty amount no longer reflects that threat.

Therefore, the reward order has been changed.

Captain "Blackwing Demon" Rocks, captain of the pirate ship "Blackwing Demon" F, has a bounty of 1.56 billion Berries!!

Chapter 163 The Fifth Sea Emperor? Targeted by the Four Emperors before even reaching the New World!

This newspaper caused a huge uproar at sea.

The Blackwing Demon Lord Haiji F, who had disappeared for more than seven months, has reappeared.

And its strength has become even stronger than before. As soon as it appeared, it chose to attack a Marine Headquarters Admiral. It's really vicious!

certainly.

The most noteworthy thing is... the title of the fifth Emperor of the Sea!

This is the first time that newspapers have publicized the existence of "another sea emperor".

This naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Some believe that Blackwing Daemon's strength is indeed enough to qualify him as the "Fifth Emperor of the Sea".

Although the Blackwing Demon Lord's F has a small number of members, they are all formidable individuals.

Among the Blackwing Demons, there are already two individuals capable of fighting against a Marine Admiral...

Some people think that, in terms of both strength and influence, Blackwing Daemon is still far from being a "Sea Emperor".

The fleet of a few people could not compare to the immense power of the Four Emperors.

Whether they are executives or ordinary members, they are still worlds apart from the Four Emperors...

總之。

Regarding the title of "Fifth Emperor of the Sea," many people on the high seas have different opinions.

No one can convince anyone else.

Some people know more, but others believe that this title might be a covert trick by the Navy.

The purpose was to demonstrate the threat posed by the Blackwing Demon King, and to make those true sea emperors take notice of him!

Another sea emperor named Rocks will definitely attract more attention from the other four emperors!

That is indeed the case.

Leaving aside "Red-haired" Shanks and "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate.

The other two of the Four Emperors...

Kaido, the "Beast," and Charlotte Linlin, the "Big Mom," did indeed develop feelings for this so-called "fifth Emperor of the Sea"...

……

A new world, the ocean of nations, on Whole Cake Island.

A hoarse, witch-like voice echoed across the entire island: "Mmm, the fifth Emperor of the Sea?"

"What right does a newbie who hasn't even reached the New World have to stand on the same level as me?"

"Come on! Let's hurry to the new world!"

"I can't wait to see if you, the 'Fifth Emperor of the Sea,' Rocks, still have any of the imposing presence of the former 'Rocks'!"

On that day, the Whole Cake Island was shrouded in dark clouds and filled with thunder and lightning...

……

The New World, Wano Country, Onigashima.

The dragon soared into the sky, roaring, "Hooray! After hiding for half a year, you've finally set sail again?"

"I was furious that I couldn't find you in the first half!"

"Killing Hanafza and interfering with my progress in building the Animal Legion... I've been holding this grudge for a long time!"

"The fifth Emperor of the Sea? The Five Emperors? Oh ho ho, only those who defeat us head-on deserve to be called Emperors of the Sea!"

The dragon swam about, its roars causing the Oni Island to tremble...

……

East China Sea.

Many people were also happy and relieved by the reappearance of the Blackwing Demon Lord.

After all, he had been missing for more than seven months.
