One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

Under Stella's precise control, Ark Proverb sailed along the course of the recording pointer for several more days.

During this time, the newcomers on the ship gradually adapted to the rhythm of the Roy Pirates.

Moria was suffering terribly under Barrett's "hellish" physical training.

However, he could also clearly feel his physical strength and domineering aura slowly increasing, and that bit of resentment turned into motivation to become stronger.

Under Stella's guidance, Vera also began physical training, and Roy gave her a lot of advice on fruit development.

Dr. Gracia, however, was frustrated by the lack of experimental equipment and complained to Roy several times.

Roy had no choice; his priority now was to improve his strength. He could only promise the doctor that he would get the experimental equipment as soon as possible before sending him away.

To keep Dr. Gracia busy, Roy also arranged for Barrett to begin giving him basic physical training.

After all, as the only scientist on the ship and a Devil Fruit user, it would be a huge disgrace to Roy if he didn't even have the basic ability to escape.

On this day, the weather was clear and cloudless.

Roy and Hawkeye were sparring on the deck. The blades flashed and the sword energy crisscrossed, but both of them kept it within a very small range, showing their exquisite control over their power.

At this moment, Stella, who had left the driver's seat, interrupted their sparring session.

"Roy! We're now inside Whitebeard's territory!"

Where are we supposed to find them?

Roy and Hawkeye simultaneously sheathed their swords and retreated. Roy waved his hand, and a newspaper floated out of the cabin.

Roy unfolded the newspaper.

"Look here," Roy pointed to a news report on the edge of the newspaper.

The Roger Pirates have once again escaped the pursuit of Marine Hero Garp!!!

According to witnesses, the Roger Pirates were last seen near Brewing Island in Whitebeard's territory.

"Roger and Whitebeard? They are certainly worthy opponents!"

Having gained a great deal from his battle with Shiki, Hawkeye is clearly very interested in Whitebeard and Roger.

"That's right."

Roy folded up the newspaper, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"Roger and his crew's objective this time is Kozuki Oden, the second division captain on Whitebeard's ship."

"Given how much Whitebeard values ​​his family, there's bound to be a big fight between them."

Stella immediately understood Roy's intention in going to the Whitebeard's territory and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Roy...you want to...intervene in the clash between two 'kings,' but last time you faced the Golden Lion..."

"Don't worry, Stella."

Roy gave him a reassuring look.

"This time it's different from the Golden Lion fight; there won't be a fight to the death."

"Moreover, a clash between two legendary pirate crews is a rare and precious opportunity for us to hone our skills and learn from each other!"

"How could our Roy Pirates miss an opportunity like this?!"

"Alright!" Stella could only helplessly reply, looking at Roy's enthusiastic expression.

"good!!"

"Then adjust course! Destination—Brewing Island! Full speed ahead!"

"Understood!" Stella immediately returned to the cockpit, and the Ark Maxim, propelled by golden-red lightning, sliced ​​through the sea and changed course.

Upon hearing the news, Barrett was so excited he almost roared to the sky.

Being able to participate in the clash between the elite members of the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates was the battle he had always dreamed of!

Tesoro, while manipulating lightning to replenish the ship's energy, muttered to himself...

"Hopefully I can also snag some benefits... I've heard Roger's treasure is quite substantial..."

After several days of sailing, the outline of "Brewing Island" came into view.

Roy spread his Observation Haki, but did not detect any trace of Roger or the others on the island.

"We're too late! Looks like they've already set off!" Roy thought to himself as he stood at the bow of the ship.

According to Roy, the great battle between Whitebeard and Roger should have taken place on a deserted island.

However, due to my intervention, I don't know if we can still fight on the deserted island as before.

"Sigh! Hopefully, I can catch up with their battle!"

Roy sighed inwardly, signaled Stella to stop the boat, and looked at Tesoro.

"Tesoro, you're fast. Go up the island and gather some information. Find out where the Roger Pirates went."

"Leave it to me!"

Tesoro responded, his body instantly becoming elemental, turning into a bolt of lightning and disappearing from the spot. The next moment, he appeared on the streets of Brewing Island.

"Roy..."

"Let's talk about it when Tezzolo gets back!"

Roy patted Barrett on the shoulder, interrupting him as he was about to say something.

The group remained on the boat, waiting, and the atmosphere was somewhat somber.

The anticipated showdown did not happen, which disappointed Barrett and his team who had been looking forward to it.

About half an hour later, a flash of lightning appeared, and Tesoro returned to the deck. Before anyone could ask, he hurriedly began to speak.

"Boss, we've found out."

"The tavern owner on the island said that the Roger Pirates did arrive here two days ago, but they only stayed for a short time, replenished some supplies, and left in a hurry."

"Which way did you leave in?"

"It's in the northeast!"

"And there's another crucial piece of information—shortly after the Roger Pirates left, a Navy warship followed them and headed in that direction."

"Karp!" Barrett's fighting spirit ignited instantly.

"That naval hero got involved too!"

"Oh! No, the tavern owner said it's just an ordinary warship."

Tezzolo's answer immediately dampened Barrett's spirits, but Roy was overjoyed.

If I remember correctly, before the major battle between the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates, Roger and his crew did indeed deal with a group of Marines first.

It seems that their meeting was not affected by Roy's involvement.

Roy instructed Stella to unfold the nautical chart, and then traced his finger towards the northeast.

"This area... is an unmarked archipelago region."

Stella carefully examined the nautical chart and calculated the distance.

"They've only been gone two days. If their course remains the same, the Ark's Proverb should be able to catch up quickly!"

"Let's go!"

"Full speed ahead, keep up with them! Hopefully, you won't miss this battle between legends!"

"Um!"

Barrett clenched his fists tightly; he had been looking forward to this battle for a long time.

Hawkeye silently began polishing his black knife.

Apart from the three who had just boarded, everyone else on the boat looked on with anticipation.

Ark Proverb changed course again, heading at full speed along the northeastern route.

After sailing at full speed for about a day, Roy, standing at the bow, suddenly frowned.

"There are lingering signs of battle ahead..."

As the ship continued forward, everyone saw a large number of ship fragments floating on the sea, clearly the wreckage of warships.

Some fragments of naval uniforms were also floating in the seawater.

"This is...the warship that was tracking Roger?" Tesoro looked at the scene before him with delight.

Barrett clenched his fist excitedly: "So, we're getting closer and closer to them!"

"It seems so." Roy nodded.

"keep going!"

After Roy finished speaking, he unleashed his full Observation Haki, and the Ark Maxim took flight under Tesoro's control, flying even faster towards the front.
