Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

Kaido, in his madness, wouldn't hold back and would definitely cause a huge ruckus.

The other party should be handed over to the Navy to handle...

Upon hearing this, Kizaru's lips twitched wildly: "That's... terrifying..."

Momousagi sneered, "One day you'll be captured by the Navy, Blackwing Demon!"

"Ha, if time hadn't been on our side, and if it weren't for Kaido messing things up, I wouldn't mind sending you all to your deaths..."

Lockes gave a cold laugh.

Then his foot spun and he disappeared from the spot...

Watching Rocks leave, Momousagi fell silent: "..."

"Alright, alright, don't get provoked, Vice Admiral Momousagi. Now it's time to think about how to deal with Kaido..."

Kizaru quickly spoke up, his tone becoming heavy: "Having been beaten up by Blackwing Daedalus, that guy won't let it go easily, given his personality."

"If we find out that the Blackwing Demon is missing, we'll probably have to vent our anger on someone else..."

Kaido's personality is unpredictable and eccentric. If he comes to his senses and finds that the Blackwing Demon is gone, it would be strange if he didn't go crazy.

Their navy is really unlucky...

……

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Back on the Black Demon, Rocks addressed all his companions, then looked at Issho and said, "Issho, get out of here."

'Om! '

With a smile, he activated his power, and the Black Demon floated as if it had lost gravity, then flew away into the distance.

Without anyone stopping it, the Black Demon sped away at an extremely fast pace...

"Hahaha, you guys are having quite a blast, aren't you, you little devil Rocks!"

Just then, a loud laugh came from one of the locations.

Garp charged towards the Black Demon, leaping through the air, his laughter echoing around him: "Come down and have a good chat with this old man!"

“Garp…”

Rocks's expression darkened as he looked at Garp charging towards him.

This guy arrived pretty quickly.

Only about two hours have passed. Did you fly here using Moonwalk?

Nami also remembered Garp, and her expression changed: "Oh dear, this old guy came too fast!"

Moria's expression turned serious: "Another troublesome fellow has arrived..."

Robin frowned: "Even naval heroes are eyeing us?"

"You're too late, old man!"

Rocks stared at Karp as he approached and sneered, "If we had come sooner, we would have had a hard time leaving..."

"Late? What's late? Now is the perfect time!"

Garp laughed heartily.

They won't let Rocks and the others leave easily...

Having finally made it here from Naval Headquarters, I also want to know about Rocks' current strength.

How could they have let Rocks and the others get away so easily?

As for Kaido, whose appearance here is of unknown origin...

We'll clean it all up together later!

Rocks said coldly, "Don't push us, old man, or I can't guarantee that the Sabaody Archipelago will still be alright..."

Garp wasn't one to be threatened, and his smile remained unchanged: "Threatening me? You're getting more and more domineering, but the more you do that, the more I want to see your strength!"

"I heard you stole my and Zefa's fighting style. You haven't paid your tuition yet, have you? Get down here and pay your tuition now!"

"..."

Seeing that Garp really wanted to fight, Rocks' expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

He took a deep breath and said coldly, "Don't make me say it again, old man, I don't want to indiscriminately kill innocent people!"

"However, if you keep pestering me, I'll have Issho pull a meteorite from outer space and make everyone on the Sabaody Archipelago perish with it!"

Seeing Garp's furrowed brows, Rocks calmly said, "Don't look at me like that. I'm capable of anything if pushed to the limit, so let's compromise, old man."

"If you think I don't have that ability, you can try. I don't want to indiscriminately kill innocent people, nor do I want to cross my bottom line..."

"..."

Garp remained silent, his gaze fixed on Rocks.

It's like they're assessing whether what Rocks said is true...

Lox smiled and nodded: "Smile, pull down a meteorite, and it'll land on the sea. Hmm, just a small one, so it doesn't cause a tsunami. We can't be the bad guys..."

A smile: "..."

Okay, this is how I escaped...

He really resembles a vicious and unscrupulous villain.

Fortunately, Rocks remained very restrained, his only aim being to coerce Garp into stopping the pursuit.

He wouldn't mind taking action if it wasn't for the purpose of indiscriminately killing innocent people.

"I will make a move once..."

He smiled without refusing, and pressed down with his cane and knife.

A force of gravity rose from him, pulling a meteorite from outer space down...

'Hiss hiss hiss!'

As the meteorite rubbed against the atmosphere, a point of light appeared high in the sky, and a meteorite trailing a fiery tail crashed down.

Finally, it crashed onto the distant sea with a loud 'boom'...

The meteorite, roughly the size of a basketball, moved with tremendous force due to the pull of gravity, creating a huge splash upon impact that caused the seawater to surge and crash against it...

Garp: "..."

Is it really possible to do that?

The blind swordsman capable of such a feat had raised the level of threat in Garp's mind to its peak...

"This time it's only the size of a basketball, next time it will be the size of a warship..."

Seeing Garp's astonished expression, Rocks grinned: "How many people do you think would survive if a meteorite like that hit the Sabaody Archipelago?"

Garp took a deep breath, a look of utter displeasure on his face: "That's really something, kid, threatening me with the lives of ordinary people..."

Lox let out a breath: "I don't want to indiscriminately kill innocent people, nor do I want to cross moral boundaries, but when it comes to the safety of my companions, I have no choice but to be the bad guy!"

"This wouldn't have happened if you had stopped chasing us. I've already shown a lot of restraint by not letting Issho make a move directly but instead negotiating terms with you here!"

If Garp were to intervene at this moment, they wouldn't fare any better.

Kaido, who had been blasted away, has returned to fight his way back.

Time is of the essence; Rocks can no longer sustain high-intensity combat...

Leaving here is the best option.

The safety of his companions is of utmost importance to Rocks!

Therefore, he could only threaten Garp with words. He didn't want to go to extremes or indiscriminately kill innocent people; his bottom line was still there.

But it won't put my companions in danger either.

Even if a meteorite were to fall, that old guy Garp could definitely stop it. The fact that Rocks is still negotiating with Garp right now shows that he's already being very restrained...

"Instead of chasing me, you should consider dealing with that dragon."

Rocks pointed at Kaido, who was flying over, and said to Garp, "That guy is different from me. I would consider the lives of ordinary people, but that guy wouldn't."

"What if the entire Sabaody Archipelago gets overturned by them..."

"Get out of here, you're an eyesore!"

Garp was so angry that he puffed out his beard, glared, and gritted his teeth: "Don't let me catch you next time, or I'll beat you to a pulp!"

You think you're so right?

But he really couldn't gamble with the lives of ordinary people on whether Lox would "go easy on him."

If you really push the other person too far, he thinks they're capable of doing something like that.

It has nothing to do with indiscriminate killing of innocent people, and it has nothing to do with bottom lines.

It was purely for the safety of their partners...

Lox scoffed: "Heh, who'll be stronger next time we meet is hard to say..."

"Let's go, leave this place, and come back for the coating after things calm down!"

Rocks laughed heartily, his voice fading away as the Black Demon sailed into the distance...

"Where do you think you're going? Blackwing Demon, get back here!"

A ferocious roar echoed throughout the Sabaody Archipelago as Kaido transformed into a demonic dragon, charging towards them on a cloud of flames.

Staring at the Black Demon Ship gradually disappearing into the distance, Kaido exhaled a hot breath!

The raging heatwave hurtled toward the Black Demon, but was intercepted by a beam of emerald light.

It exploded in mid-air, the booming sound carrying far and wide...

"The main force of the navy is here. I don't have time to deal with you. But I'll remember the grudge you took the initiative to attack me this time!"

"Yes, thank you for your demonstration, which allowed me to understand the internal destruction of Armament Haki and the entanglement of Conqueror's Haki..."

Rocks' voice boomed over the explosion, carrying far and wide:

"If I don't smash your brains out next time, I'm not called Rocks! Hahaha!"

"You bastard!!"

Kaido roared in anger, wanting to continue the pursuit.

But then an annoyed voice rang out, and immediately afterward, Observation Haki detected danger—

"What's all the noise about? I'm already in a bad mood, and you're yelling and screaming here, it's hurting my ears!"

"Fist-bone impact!"

Kaido turned his head and saw Garp already throwing a punch at him...

A powerful, domineering lightning bolt erupted from the opponent's fist as it blasted out, its ferocious force crushing towards him...

"What are you doing here, old man?"

Upon seeing this, Kaido's pupils contracted.

However, he dared not slacken in the slightest. He transformed into a half-beast form, gripped his spiked club, and unleashed a powerful attack.

'Boom!!'

The attack collided and exploded in mid-air, sending out a powerful roar and a massive shockwave sweeping across the area...

How could a hastily thrown attack possibly block Garp's punch?

Kaido was blasted through the air and crashed diagonally towards the already shattered numbered island...

A loud 'boom'.

They smashed the island even more, making it probably uninhabitable from now on.

Even the island base was shattered, and it will gradually sink over time...

"What are you doing here? I'm a member of the Navy, and the Sabaody Archipelago is under Navy jurisdiction. Why do you think I'm here?"

Garp landed on the ground and grinned at Kaido, who had stood up, saying, "But you're in pretty bad shape now. Did that kid beat you up?"
