I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

"Lox and Sieg... I have a feeling there's some big secret involved," Dorr muttered to himself.

"For me, it doesn't matter when I leave."

As a naval admiral who has fought in many battles, he has full confidence in his strength and ability.

He hesitated for a moment, then instead of stepping through the air portal, he opened another air portal and stepped into the alternate dimension, heading back towards the battlefield of the Island of All Things.

............

Naval Headquarters, Marshal's Office.

After hanging up the phone, Zhan Guo got up and paced around his office, lost in thought.

"Notify them immediately—" He was about to give the order when he suddenly frowned, looking somewhat uneasy.

He sat back down in his seat, picked up the receiver of the Den Den Mushi (a type of telephone) on the table, and dialed Dol's number again.

The call was not answered.

Sengoku's expression suddenly darkened, and he turned to look at the secretary beside him:

"Go and retrieve General Dort's life card," he said in a deep voice.

Dol's ability is unique; he can come and go freely in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise if he so desires.

After returning to the position of Admiral, at the request of the World Government, Admiral Dol left a Vivre Card at headquarters.

This was supposed to be used to determine Dor's location, but now, Sengoku had a bad feeling.

Chapter 1047 The Truth Behind Rocks' Death 5K

Boom!Boom!

Under the Emperor Engine mode, after devouring about a hundred shadows, Sig's body swelled up, becoming as robust as an iron tower, his skin turning a strange indigo blue, making him look like a demon and inspiring fear.

But the Rocks before us is different.

No matter how many shadows he devoured, his corpse remained unchanged; his face was still pale, and his body did not swell, as if it were a bottomless pit.

"Give up. No matter how many shadows you devour, you are still not Lox," Sig said calmly.

Sigurd's punches were as swift as the wind as he fought fiercely with the zombie Rocks, each strike creating a powerful gust of wind.

With the shadow's enhancement, the power, comparable to that of an adult giant, expanded once more. As the two clashed in the night, the ground cracked and soil flew everywhere, and the previously tidy manor was almost overturned.

"My house...it's all money!" Sig felt a pang of heartache as he fought his way back towards the shore.

A strong wind blew, and the sea under the night sky was also surging with waves.

Occasionally, shadows would flash by, transforming into bats or spears to secretly attack Sig.

This one-against-two situation reminded Sieg of the decisive battle he had fought on an unnamed island.

That time, the fight against two opponents was between Sigurd and his shadow clone Dracula, but strictly speaking, it was still Sigurd alone.

This time, Zombie Rocks can also be seen as the power of Moria, the user of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit.

"Hey Rocks!" Moria shouted from behind Rocks.

"Tell me, how many shadows do you need to restore yourself to your peak condition in life and take down your former first mate?"

"I can give you as many shadows as you want!"

Moria's face contorted with rage, veins bulging, as he roared.

He had just suffered at the hands of Sieg, and now he was placing all his hopes on this former world's strongest man.

Zombie Rocks did not reply; he simply fought Sig in silence, occasionally soaring through the air to catch lone shadows and absorb them into his body.

"Rocks?" After the battle, Luo looked puzzled.

He glanced around.

The other forces that had been secretly watching had been scared away by Sig, the zombie army was almost wiped out, and Gilman and Kro's men were all unconscious.

At this moment, he only had Crocus by his side, along with Kro, Gilman, and Aaron, who had just been rescued and had just woken up from their coma.

“Mr. Crocus.” Luo turned to the oldest ship’s doctor and quietly asked the question that had been bothering him:

"Rocks... could he be some great pirate?"

"Gecko Moria is a well-known pirate himself, so why would he place such high hopes on a dead Rocks?"

Kurokas was slightly taken aback, then a look of emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, too much time has passed."

Legends of the Pirate King and the Mountain Bandit King still circulate in the world.

But this original maritime overlord has long been forgotten by history. Only those old folks who experienced the old era can truly understand the horrors of the Rocks era.

"Rocks was once the dominant sea king of the New World, and his pirate crew was undoubtedly the strongest pirate crew in the world at that time."

Crocus explained:

"He was the strongest enemy that Roger, the Pirate King, faced back then, and Higuma was also the vice-captain of his ship."

"Among the current Four Emperors, three of them... no, if we include Shiki the Golden Lion, among the five Pirate Emperors, Kaido, Shiki, Big Mom, and Whitebeard were all once subordinates of Rocks' ship."

"What? Such a thing happened in the past?"

As a rookie pirate of the new era, Law felt as if his worldview had been turned upside down when he first heard the rumors about Rocks.

Even the most outrageous tabloids on online forums wouldn't dare to make something like this!

Have the younger generation already forgotten my name?

A deep voice came from the distant battlefield.

Lox, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

His mind seemed to be returning, and he was remembering more things.

Rocks hadn't changed much from before, but to Luo, he seemed different from the nameless zombie from before; his figure appeared to have grown taller.

Law's psychological trauma is Doflamingo. Doflamingo is terrified of Kaido, and Kaido... despite being one of the Four Emperors, was just a newcomer on Rocks' ship back then.

Thinking about it this way... he really was a great figure worthy of respect.

"In short, there's a lot to talk about regarding Locus's past achievements..." Crocus continued:

"But what the great pirates of the old era remember most vividly is Rocks's epic death, the Battle of God Valley."

Ok?

The zombie Lox, who had been somewhat reminded of his past, suddenly felt a little lost.

The God Valley Battle... Did such a thing really happen?

In the brief moment when the zombie Locusts was momentarily distracted, a glint of light appeared in Sig's eyes.

Clang!

The Seastone Sword at his waist was drawn in an instant, flashing a cold light in the night!

While Sieg was exchanging blows with the zombie Rocks, he was also using his telekinesis to control the Seastone Sword to shoot through the air!

But it's similar to before.

The zombie Rocks seemed to instinctively fear Seastone. Instead of directly confronting Sieg head-on, the zombie Rocks deftly dodged the flying sword's strike by turning its body to the side.

After being dodged by the zombie Rocks, the sea stone flying sword suddenly increased in speed, piercing the sky in the night with a sharp whistling sound, and went straight for Moria in the distance!

Moria is not good at close combat, and because of his gigantic size, he is too big a target to dodge Sigurd's Seastone flying swords.

Hiding behind the zombie Lox is Sieg's true target.

"Split Bat!"

Moria's shadow split into hundreds of shadow bats that swooped down, but they were pierced by the faster Seastone swords, offering little resistance.

In the blink of an eye.

The seastone sword had already overcome the obstacles of the bats and was about to strike Moria's enormous body.

In the blink of an eye.

"Shadow Mage!"

The hundreds of shadow bats quickly gathered in the air, reforming into a shadow clone identical to Moria, standing not far behind the zombie Rocks.

"Shadow Warrior!"

Just as the Seastone sword was about to strike, Moria flashed and swapped positions with his shadow clone.

The sea stone flying sword pierced through, but only managed to pierce through Moria's shadow.

"Hehehehe... How could the same move possibly hit me twice?!"

Before Moria could finish speaking, another streak of light flashed by.

He suddenly shuddered and looked at his chest.

In the blink of an eye, Sieg's second seastone flying sword was also drawn swiftly, and as he laughed triumphantly, it pierced directly into his chest.

"It's Seastone again... Why can your abilities affect Seastone...?"

Before Moria could finish his sentence, he was completely exhausted, and shadows began to fly out of his wounds once again.

"No!"

This time, the flying sword pierced even deeper, almost into his chest. Moria gritted his teeth and tried to pull it out, but his arm was too weak to pull it out at all.

The restraining effect of Seastone on seawater can weaken the user and prevent them from actively using their Devil Fruit abilities, but it cannot strip the user of their Devil Fruit powers.

In other words, passive abilities and moves that do not require stamina to maintain are unaffected.

For example, Luffy's rubber body, Aokiji's ice creations, and Akainu's lava spewing out.

After the Seastone sword struck Moria, he immediately became exhausted and could no longer maintain the effect of "Shadow Gathering Ground." Shadows flew out rapidly from his wounds and mouth.

"No!" Moria cried out, as if a drowning man were grasping at a straw, trying to grab onto the fleeing shadow.

But he had lost the ability to manipulate shadows and could only watch as they slipped through his fingers.

"It's not over yet... I still have Rocks!" Moria turned to look at the zombie Rocks.
