Chapter 237 Hunting Target

After realizing that Big Mom's [Soul Soul Fruit] might help him, Rhode's movements became more violent. He approached her and punched her hard. His powerful domineering aura burst out with each attack, damaging Big Mom's body.

Big Mom, who was injured by Rhode's attack, also used her true fire. The power of the three Homies "Zeus", "Prometheus" and "Napoleon" merged together and was controlled by her powerful strength. Each attack contained terrifying power.

The domineering color wrapped around Rhode's fist collided violently with the domineering aura on Big Mom's weapon. The amazing momentum burst out, and the terrifying air wave almost destroyed everything around.

"Too strong!"

On the Moby Dick, Ace watched Rhode's battle with Big Mom, and his heart was shocked again and again.

He could feel that the flames controlled by Big Mom with the power of the fruit were not inferior to his own Flame-Flame Fruit in terms of power.

However, this level of power was not a match for Rhode's fist.

Not only that, the domineering of these two people is far stronger than him.

Originally, after undergoing special training from Garp and joining the Whitebeard Pirates and experiencing many battles, Ace thought he was about to catch up with Rod's strength.

But feeling the momentum of the battle between Rod and Big Mom, Ace realized that he was still too immature. The gap in strength between the two of them not only did not narrow, but seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

"Gulala, are you scared?"

Whitebeard looked down at Ace.

Whitebeard had high hopes for this son who had just been accepted not long ago.

He himself knew that although the Whitebeard Pirates are now the strongest force in the New World, all of this is based on his strength and reputation.

However, he is old, and the injuries left in his youth are eating away at his life bit by bit.

After he gets old, the Whitebeard Pirates need a new captain, a captain who can lead his family to continue sailing in this world.

Although Marco is strong, calm, and considerate, he is not qualified to be a navigator.

The same is true for Joz and Vista. In terms of personality, they are not the kind of people who can be captains.

Not only that, the strength of the two of them is not as good as Marco, and they are not enough to support the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirates.

The pirate world is ultimately a world that speaks by strength.

But Ace is different.

He has a cheerful personality and an open mind. He has only joined the Whitebeard Pirates for a few months, but he has established deep friendships with the captains of the major squads. Even among the 43 subordinate pirate groups, many people have gathered around him and become good partners with him.

Not only that, Ace's strength is also good. Even now, he can rank among the top five in the Whitebeard Pirates.

The most important thing is that he is still very young and his strength is still improving.

In time, he will definitely be able to take over the heavy responsibility and become the new captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, leading his family to continue to sail freely on the sea!

"Fear? It's better to say I'm looking forward to it!"

Ace's eyes seemed to have a flame burning.

"I'm looking forward to the day when I can fight them head-on!"

"Gulala, this is my good son!"

Whitebeard laughed loudly upon hearing this, his voice full of relief.

"Ace, did you notice that?"

The laughter subsided, and Whitebeard pointed at the battle between Rod and Big Mom and spoke to Ace.

"The domineering of the two of them."

Ace focused slightly, feeling the domineering released by Rod and Big Mom.

That is the technique of letting the armed color domineering flow and release it to attack. When he was specially trained by his grandfather before, Ace also mastered that technique initially. After this period of fighting, he has been able to master it well.

Compared to simply wrapping the domineering around the body for hardening attack, this kind of flow release can ignore the opponent's defense to a certain extent and cause real damage to it.

However, Ace is now more accustomed to using the fruit ability to fight, and Ace has no good idea of ​​how to integrate this technique into the fruit ability.

However, in addition to the outward Armament Haki, there seems to be another kind of Haki power.

"Haki!"

Ace whispered.

"Yes, Haki!"

Whitebeard looked at Ace with satisfaction.

"Haki can also be entangled in attacks!"

"The two of them are using that technique to fight now. The entanglement of Haki can make the attack more powerful, and even enhance the power of Armament Haki to a certain extent."

"Watch carefully, learn carefully, such opportunities are not common!"

Ace's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at the battle between Rhodes and Big Mom more seriously.

He also has Haki!

After learning the entanglement of Haki, the gap between him and Rhodes can be reduced a little!

Also on the Moby Dick.

Blackbeard Teach hid in the crowd, looking at Rhodes who was fighting with Big Mom over there, with a hint of hidden ambition in his eyes.

'Just like this, confront the Four Emperors head-on, and then become famous in the world! '

'Sooner or later, I will do something like this, step on the corpses of these strong men today, and create my own reputation! ’

‘Dad is already old, so old that he can’t even suppress rising stars like Ba Fist Rhodes. The next era should be my era! ’

‘As long as I wait for that fruit, I can start my own plan! ! ’

Blackbeard Teach hid himself among the Whitebeard Pirates, nurturing his ambitions and silently waiting for opportunities.

···

Auntie's pirate ship

Nairo was left alone.

The group of members brought by Big Mom, led by Perospero, had all fallen at Nailu's feet.

It has been almost a year since he ate the [Thunder Fruit]. With the help of continuous practice and several battles, Neilu has now entered a new stage in developing the fruit's abilities.

Even when facing a big pirate like Margao who has been famous for a long time, he is not inferior in battle at all. He can even gain an advantage in some aspects with his powerful attack power and super fast mobility.

With Katakuri, the leader of the Big Mom Pirates' three dessert generals, not taking action, the other members of the Big Mom Pirates pose no threat to him!

Suddenly, Nailu turned his head and looked into the distance of the sea.

Why did they come here together?

···

‘That’s not good, Lingling seems to be no match for Ba Quan. ’

Such thoughts silently flashed through Kaido's mind, and then his thoughts began to wander again.

Do you want to help Lingling?

If he wanted to take action, I'm afraid Whitebeard wouldn't agree.

Moreover, these people under Ba Fist Rhodes seem to be very strong!

Even if you can't beat yourself, you can still hold yourself back for a while.

Very annoying! Otherwise, forget about it and just bring everyone in for a big fight!

Kaido gave up and continued to use his brain, preparing to use his body to control his head. Before he could take any action, he suddenly felt a familiar aura from a distance.

"Yamato!!"

Kaido turned his head, his sharp eyes piercing the sea in the distance.

"No, no, no, no, I must catch you this time!"

Kaido, who was already a little hesitant, immediately forgot about the battle between Rhodes and Big Mom, and turned into a blue dragon and soared into the sky, flying towards the distance.

While Kaido was taking action, the others also noticed a belated ship.

As Kaido took action, the hull began to appear in everyone's sight.

It was a huge pirate ship, just like a small island, sailing towards Urukum.

"The terrifying barque is Moonlight Moria!"

On the navy warship, Kizaru looked at the pirate ship appearing in the distance, feeling that the situation here was getting more and more chaotic.

"Not only Moonlight Moria, but also Crocodile!"

On the red-haired pirate ship, Ben Beckman took a puff of cigarette and felt that the situation in front of him was becoming more and more complicated.

According to the information they received, when Kaido went to Dressrosa, Moonlight Moria and Crocodile took the opportunity to board Wano Country and caused a lot of trouble. It is said that Kaido His daughter was also abducted by them.

In recent times, the Beasts Pirates' fleet outside has also had conflicts with Moria and Crocodile more than once, but they have been unable to do anything to them.

These two people are both great pirates who became famous twenty years ago. They are all very powerful, and it cannot be done by just a few people.

On the terrifying barque

"Hehehehehe, all the four emperors are here, it's really a big battle!"

Moria saw several ships docked around the island through the telescope, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Whitebeard!"

Crocodile's eyes crossed the distant sea and landed on Whitebeard, with an inexplicable look on his face.

"That's awesome, that's the Four Emperors!"

Yamato held his own weapon in his hand and looked carelessly at the several pirate ships over there, as well as a few people who noticed it at a glance.

Red hair, Big Mom, and White Beard, these big figures are famous in the new world and stand at the top of pirates!

Huh? Why is there another redhead?

Also, where is Kaido?

"Uh-huh-huh-huh, you actually dare to appear in front of me, are you ready to die?!"

Kaido's laughter came from the sky, and the next moment, a terrifying aura fell from the sky, pressing downwards fiercely.

"Thunder Gossip!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the green dragon hovering over the terrifying three-masted sailboat suddenly shrank and turned into a burly man. He held a mace in his hand and dropped from the sky. The terrifying thunder gathered on the mace in his hand, which contained a lot of meaning. Amazing power.

"Desert sword!"

"Shadow Horn Knife!"

"Thunder gossip!"

Facing Kaido's attack, Crocodile, Moonlight Moria, and Yamato attacked at the same time. The terrifying power collided instantly, and an astonishing air wave was emitted.

"How scary!!"

"Gonna die!"

"Help!"

As the battle between Kaido and Crocodile progressed, headed by Gar Dino and Perona, Crocodile and the members of Moonlight Moria fought one by one, their faces turned pale.

With their thin arms and legs, even the aftermath of the battle could kill them!

Why did the battle have to start on the pirate ship? Wouldn't it be better to fight on the island when we get close to it!

Thinking of this, while fearing the outbreak of a battle on the island, the timid group drove the horror three-masted sailboat and hurried to the seaside.

Squeak~~~

With a flash of lightning, a figure suddenly appeared on the horror three-masted sailboat.

"Why are you two here?"

Neru looked at Genos and Bakara.

The two of them should have teamed up to go out on a mission, so why did they come on Gekko Moria's pirate ship.

"In short, we were discovered by them on Ironwood Island, and we happened to hear that there might be a conflict with the Whitebeard Pirates here, so we just came along."

Bakara briefly explained the reason why they appeared on the ship.

In fact, the two of them were also full of doubts.

They found traces of Crocodile's actions on Ironwood Island and reported it to Rhode. Unexpectedly, Crocodile and Gekko Moriah were found soon after.

Originally, they thought they would have a big fight with them, but they didn't expect that the other party just invited them to come to Urukum Island together.

Genos and Bakara, who had known something between Rhode and the two, were full of doubts, but they still chose to come together.

Neru glanced at Crocodile and Gekko Moriah who were fighting Kaido.

Unlike Genos and Bakara, he knew a lot about Rhode's plan.

These two people were originally driven into the New World by Rhode to disrupt the situation.

So far, it has indeed played the role Rhode expected.

Previously on Urukum Island, Neru's observation color read the taste of "betrayal" from Kaido.

Recalling the information obtained before, Kaido and Big Mom were once pirate companions on the same ship, and even Kaido's devil fruit was given to him by Big Mom. Neru has always been worried that Kaido will turn against him.

Now, Kaido's attention is attracted by Crocodile and the others.

The Red Hair Pirates have no intention of attacking, the Whitebeard Pirates also choose to wait and see, and the Navy is eager for the pirates to fight each other.

In this way, no one will intervene in the battle between Rod and Big Mom.

"Be prepared, Bakara, Rod may need your ability."

Neru looked at Bakara and reminded him.

From the battle between Rod and Big Mom, Neru also read some of Rod's intentions.

He wants Big Mom's fruit!

Bakara's heart moved, and his body shook slightly.

That's the Four Emperors!

Even the fruit abilities of the Four Emperors have become hunting targets now!
