One Piece: Starting with the Immortal Rocks Pirates

Page 102

Zefa spoke in a deep voice.

Steel Bones Void: "..."

Are your ears all that sharp? Is there any secret left in the Marshal's office?

"Water City..."

He had barely uttered the location name, and before he could give any instructions, Garp and Zephyr had already turned and left.

Chapter 125 Dimon's [Prince's Strategy]

After a day of leisurely strolling around Water Seven, Damon takes Tom on a voyage.

Before leaving, Tom instructed his disciple, "Iceberg, I'm entrusting Tom's Studio to you while I'm away."

"Yes, Mr. Tom, have a safe trip."

The younger version of the iceberg stood on the shore waving goodbye.

This kid is destined to be the mayor of Water Seven, but right now he's just a shipwright's apprentice.

Kokoro smiled and said, "Go ahead without worry. Don't worry about things here. Go early and come back early."

After bidding farewell to the elderly Kokkoro and the young Iceberg, the pirate ship set sail smoothly.

On the deck, Tom turned to Dimon and the other man and said:

"Leave the trip to the Sabaody Archipelago to me. I'll let the fish lead the way. We expect to arrive in five days, but we'll be passing through the Devil's Triangle, which is a pretty dangerous area."

Having a merman to guide you is so convenient!

Normally, the record pointer will only point to Fishman Island after a week of magnetic energy has been stored in Water Seven.

Tom doesn't need that. He was born in the Dragon Palace Kingdom and, as a horned fishman, he can easily command schools of fish to lead the way.

However, the route will still pass through the Devil's Triangle.

Moria is still a rookie pirate, and the Moria Pirates have only recently been established. Thriller Bark doesn't even exist in that area yet.

But with the ghost ship, we might run into Brook along the way.

The weather along the Grand Line can change in an instant; one moment it's clear skies, the next a storm is brewing.

Those who have never sailed the Grand Line can hardly imagine what it feels like to have giant waves crashing against a ship.

It was like a train rushing towards them; the enormous impact would tilt the pirate ship, with the maximum tilt angle approaching sixty degrees, as if it were about to capsize at any moment.

Without a skilled navigator to guide you, sailing in these treacherous waters is practically a gamble with your life.

Fortunately, Dimon was no ordinary man; his punch shook the ocean, preventing any waves from getting close to the ship.

Having successfully weathered the storm, the ship entered the Devil's Triangle the following day.

This area is shrouded in fog year-round, with complex sea conditions and extremely chaotic geomagnetism, celestial phenomena, ocean currents, and air currents.

The overall atmosphere is eerie and terrifying. When the fog is thickest in the morning and at night, visibility is no more than ten meters.

These were nothing to Dumon and his group; they successfully completed the journey in a day, though they unfortunately missed encountering the ghost ship.

At this moment, Dimon sat on the figurehead, gazing at the sea ahead, where he could vaguely see a ship sailing towards him.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his Observation Haki rapidly probed into the distance, quickly transmitting feedback.

"Roger," he called out to those behind him.

"What's wrong? It'll be another two or three days before we arrive, right?" Roger walked over wearing floral shorts and carrying a bottle of wine.

Tom followed them to the bow. "The fish said there's a ship ahead, a warship!"

"It really is..." Roger activated his Observation Haki, his face filled with astonishment: "Garp's aura!"

What the hell? Garp is like a ghost that won't leave me. How come I keep running into him wherever I go?

Roger seriously wondered if he had some kind of radar tracking device on him!

Dimon chuckled. "And there's Zephyr's scent. Looks like the Navy got wind of our appearance in Water Seven."

"How do we do it?" Roger grinned, eager to try.

The fight with Dimon a few days ago was not pleasant at all. He can't fly, but Dimon can, so he was completely on the defensive and getting beaten up.

Things are different now; he can fly now, but Garp can't!

"Of course I'll go say hello."

With a thought, Dimon entered his demon form, flapped his wings, and flew toward the warship. "Mr. Tom, you sail to Sabaody Archipelago alone. We'll catch up with you later."

Roger also conjured wings. "Please, Tom!"

The two flew toward the warship one after the other, leaving Tom dumbfounded.

When did Roger eat a Devil Fruit?

There are only a handful of Zoan-type Devil Fruit users in the entire world who can fly.

These two have the same style of wings; no two Devil Fruits are the same in the world.

The deck of a dog-headed warship.

Lieutenant Bogard lowered his binoculars, turned around and shouted to Karp:

"Vice Admiral Garp, a pirate ship has been spotted ahead! Two people are flying over from the ship – it's the brewer Damon and the Pirate King Roger!"

Kapu was lying on a beach chair sunbathing when he heard this. He quickly got up, went to the bow of the boat, and snatched the binoculars to look through them.

Zefa immediately came up from the cabin to the deck and asked in a deep voice:

"Is it really Dimon?"

“Yes, General Zephyr.” Bogard nodded.

Garp grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth. "Bogart, bring me my cannonballs!"

Soon, the marines brought over a pile of cannonballs, and Garp grabbed one in each hand and hurled them at Damon and Garp.

"Roger! You're not getting away this time!!"

With a whoosh, the cannonball, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, hurtled straight toward Roger.

Roger slightly dodged one, and when he turned around, he saw the shell fall into the sea, causing a huge wave.

The second one then hit directly.

Thick smoke billowed out in an instant.

Dimon quickly created distance. Garp is a good guy; he only attacks Roger and not him.

"Garp, you bastard!"

Roger's angry curses echoed from the smoke and dust. With a flap of his wings, he accelerated sharply towards the warship.

He dodged the cannonballs that Garp kept throwing and landed above the warship.

"When did you grow wings?" Garp gasped in astonishment. "You ate a Devil Fruit? This isn't like you at all!"

Roger stood with his arms crossed, hovering in mid-air. "Hahaha, Garp, you used to be the one chasing me, but this time it's different!"

As he spoke, he drew Ace from his waist and slashed out with his sword.

"Trying to sabotage my ship?"

Garp snorted and leaped up to catch the slash.

However, at that moment, a black light attacked from behind Roger, instantly cutting into the side of the warship and smashing through the ship's hull in the most primitive and brutal way, exiting from the other side.

"Dimmon!" Zephyr roared.

Seawater poured in through the breach in the warship, the watertight compartments were destroyed, and the warship began to sink, throwing the sailors on deck into panic.

“Sashiberdana, Zepha, I’m relieved to see your upper body growing back.”

Dimon smiled, but his words were sharp: "Haven't I gotten any stronger in a year?"

Zefa's face darkened. "Ever since I lost to you, I've been training day and night. I won't let you succeed so easily this time!"

With that, he leaped into the air and launched a sudden attack on Dimon, who was in mid-air.

Dimon extended his index finger and pointed it directly at Zefa.

Seeing this action, Zephyr felt a chill run down his spine; memories of his death were attacking him.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The high-speed stomping of his foot produced a dull sound as Zephyr's figure streaked erratically through the air.

Dimon activates his precognitive ability and locks onto Zephyr.

"Useless. I can also use Observation Haki to foresee the future!"

Zefa kept changing positions, repeatedly cutting into Dimon's blind spots.

The two people's premonitions of the future are clashing fiercely.

You predict the future, I change the future; you predict again, I change it again.

Zefa dared not act rashly. If he misjudged the situation and got too close, he would be finished off with a single Limit Break technique.

"Excellent, excellent! I'm very pleased with your progress!"

Dimon said with a smile, "My 'Berserk Flash' does require a little charging time, enough for you to foresee the future and change your location, but..."

As he spoke, he opened his other four folded fingers, turning one finger into one palm.

A large amount of Armament Haki gathered in his palm, and black and red lightning crackled.

"What makes you think that all I know is the 'Dash' move?"

The moment the words left his mouth, a dense barrage of black energy spheres rained down on Zefa.

Its charging time is less than one-tenth of that of the Overlord Flash.

"This move is called... the Prince's Battle Technique!"

Chapter 126 Zephyr was instantly killed again!

Dimon flew high above, continuously releasing one black energy ball after another from the palm of his right hand.

Faced with such a dense attack, Zephyr had no time to think about how to attack; all his attention was focused on dodging.

His Observation Haki allows him to see into the immediate future, and in countless futures, he is struck almost every time.

"As long as I want to get closer to the other person, is this future certain?"

Zephyr dodged rapidly in mid-air, shocked by the outcome.

It's almost identical to the techniques of his disciple, Kizaru, the user of the Glint-Glint Fruit. The Yasakani no Magatama can fire hundreds of light-emitting bullets in a second.

While Damon's Armament Haki energy balls weren't as numerous as Kizaru's, their power was far greater.

"What's wrong? Have you given up?"

From his elevated position, Dimon relentlessly unleashed a barrage of black orbs, declaring, "If you don't get close to me, how will you defeat me?"

As they spoke, countless black spheres fell into the sea, each triggering a massive explosion and creating waves tens of meters high.

The sailors on the warship looked terrified.

"They're numerous and incredibly powerful! General Zephyr has absolutely no chance against them!"

"That's terrifying! Even a single glancing blow could destroy a warship!"

"It's about to sink now!"

The warship had a large hole punched through its hull; it was only a matter of time before it sank.

Noticing the situation with the warships, Zephyr finally couldn't hold back any longer; delaying would only put him at a disadvantage.

"Armed Color Hardened!"

Zephyr turned completely black, transforming into a black man, and charged towards Dimon while enduring the Armament Haki energy blast.

The energy ball bombarded him, making a loud noise, but he did not flinch.

"Dimmon, this is a punch back at you!"
