One Piece: Starting with the Immortal Rocks Pirates

Page 20

Only those who possess the mark can be teleported through the magic circle.

“Rocks would be very disappointed if he knew your situation,” Dimon said calmly, his hands in his pockets as he looked down from above.

Harald gripped the greatsword tightly, closed his eyes with a complex expression, and opened them again after a moment, his resolve restored.

"This was all for Elbaf! I'm sorry, brewer!"

With a roar, Harald swung his sword down.

The giants' terrifying power was such that a mere swing of their swords could create a powerful gust of wind.

The sword blade was imbued with Conqueror's Haki, and black lightning erupted from it.

"I have no interest in fighting you. Goodbye."

Dimon chuckled, flapped his wings, and transformed into a streak of black light, instantly bypassing Harald.

He descended, scooped up Stusi who was watching the show, and flew away in the blink of an eye.

"Chase him! We absolutely cannot let him escape!"

Saturn Satan snorted coldly. This was an order directly given by Im, and it had to be carried out no matter what.

Harald swung his sword, but missed his target. However, the sword energy spread out of the Valley of the Gods in an instant, cleaving the ocean in two.

The slash that tore through the sea spanned thousands of meters.

Stussy was held in Dimon's arms, his arms wrapped around Dimon's neck, and he could see the sea right in front of him, which made his scalp tingle.

"How terrifying, the Giant King! Why does he still obey the World Government?"

"Who knows? They're out of their mind."

Don't associate with idiots, especially idiots who are exceptionally powerful.

Dimon flew high in the sky, observing the entire island from above. His Observation Haki spread out, enough to capture the atmosphere of the entire island.

Battles were breaking out everywhere, with all sorts of powerful clashes echoing through the air.

The Rocks Pirates encountered resistance, and it was no ordinary enemy; it was likely the Knights of God.

"Let's go find the competition prizes first!"

As he spoke, Dimon paused slightly, sensing several powerful auras emerging from the west coast.

"That is……"

Valley of the Gods, West Coast.

"It's the Ono Jackson...!"

The navy deployed on the west coast screamed in terror.

The ship, crafted by the precious tree "Adam," features a pair of mermaids and a forward-facing cannon at the bow, and has three masts with red sails.

The sails are adorned with a pirate flag, featuring a white skull and a golden beard.

"The Roger Pirates have appeared!"

"Notify the entire army, the Roger Pirates have appeared on the west coast!"

"Damn it, first the Rocks Pirates, then the Roger Pirates, what's going to happen to this island?!"

A warship was cut in two by the sword energy. On the pirate ship, Roger, holding the famous sword Ace, leaped ashore.

"I've been waiting for a whole year! It definitely exists on this island!"

Behind him, Rayleigh and Jabba followed closely.

"Looks like we can really make a scene today!"

"Roger, this isn't a matter for the captain's special privileges!"

With the arrival of the three major forces, more members of Roger's pirate crew also rushed to the beach.

"Oh, oh, oh, let's have a good time!"

Valley of the Gods, South Bank.

"It's reinforcements! Reinforcements have arrived!"

"Vice Admiral Garp's ship!"

The naval personnel on the south bank were overjoyed.

A dog-headed warship sailed through the waves, rapidly approaching the shore.

On the figurehead, Garp, unable to wait for the ship to dock, leaped up and shouted:

"Where?! Tell me quickly, where is Roger?!"

Valley of the Gods, above the woodland.

Dimon suppressed his domineering aura and began to conceal his presence.

"Everyone's here, it's quite a scene." He glanced back at Harald the Giant King, who was still chasing him. "Hold on tight, I need to speed up and shake him off."

"Yes, please."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dimon's demon wings flapped violently, and as he descended, he plunged into the forest, flying close to the ground.

In the heart of the Valley of the Gods, between two steep, sheer mountains.

All the Celestial Dragons near the podium had fled, leaving only six unguarded prize chests.

Two children quietly emerged from behind; one of them had a large face and an unusually large, dark purple afro.

Ivankov quickly picked up the two treasure chests and said to the other, somewhat dazed boy behind him:

"Quick, Bear, move all the treasure chests!"

"okay."

The bear was very big, and upon hearing this, it obediently carried the other four treasure chests on its shoulders.

A constant roar came from all directions, and every now and then a domineering aura swept past.

Ivankov shuddered: "Let's find a safe place first. Our plan is to get the Paw-Paw Fruit. With it, we can escape! Follow me!"

The two children quietly escaped with the treasure chest and soon found a small warehouse where miscellaneous items were stored.

The two put down the treasure chests and each opened one.

Ivankov exclaimed in surprise, "This is the Mythical Zoan type Azure Dragon Fruit, the strongest Zoan-type Devil Fruit! What's yours?"

The bear also took out a pink, fleshy, ball-shaped fruit from the box.

"Yes, that's the Paw-Paw Fruit. Let's each eat one. Don't be afraid. Even if we become unable to swim, this is our only hope of escaping!"

Just as the two opened their mouths to swallow the fruit, a tall figure burst through the door with a bang.

Charlotte Linlin grabbed Ivankov and snatched the Azure Dragon Fruit.

"This kind of thing isn't for you little brats to eat. You should thank me for taking it for me."

They're from the Rocks Pirates!

Ivankov's expression changed, and he roared at the stunned bear, "Run! What are you standing there for?"

The bear suddenly realized what was happening, gritted its teeth, and turned to flee outside.

"Eat it! Live on!" Ivankov shouted.

Abandoning his friends and fleeing alone, the bear painfully closed his eyes and opened his mouth to put the Paw Paw Fruit into his mouth.

However, at that moment, a hand grabbed his wrist, stopping him from making the next move.

Xiong hurriedly opened his eyes and saw a man and a woman; the one who had grabbed him was the man.

Dimon smiled and said, "Little friend, please give this fruit to your uncle. Uncle will see you off."

Chapter 26 Top-Tier Fruit Acquired! You Want to Capture Me? LOL

The bear stared blankly at the Paw-Paw Fruit in its hand as the man in front of it took it away.

"No! Give it back to me! Without it, we can't save everyone!"

Realizing what was happening too late, the bear pounced on Dimon.

Dimon held the Paw-Paw Fruit in one hand and pressed down on the bear's head with the other.

"Don't worry, I will make sure you leave this island safely. As for this fruit, you can leave it to your uncle."

Stussy burst out laughing. A weirdo snatching a lollipop from a child?

"What are you laughing laughing?"

Dimon rolled his eyes at her, then turned to look at Charlotte Linlin, who was choking Ivankov.

"Let him go. Lingling, what about the other fruits?"

"They're all here, in the box."

Charlotte Linlin released her grip and opened the remaining four treasure chests one by one, revealing that they were all filled with Devil Fruits.

"I recognize the Azure Dragon and the Meatball, but what kind of fruits are these four?"

Dimon walked over and looked down at him.

A top-tier fruit that can be offered as a prize alongside Azure Dragon and Meatball must be something extraordinary.

"You'd have to ask Rocks," Charlotte Linlin shook her head; she hadn't seen the fruit encyclopedia either.

"Put it away for now, we'll talk about it later."

Dimon searched the warehouse and found a piece of cloth. He put the Paw Paw Fruit and the remaining four fruits inside and wrapped them up.

Then, he stood up and said, "What are you going to do with the Azure Dragon Fruit? Give it to Kaido?"

"I can't give it to him for free; he'll owe me a favor!"

"Do whatever you want with them. I'll send these kids away. We've got the stuff, time to retreat."

After saying that, Dimon gestured for Ivankov to lead the way.

Can we trust you?

Ivankov hesitated for a moment. There was no better way now. All the fruits had been taken by these people. He could only take one last gamble.

He pulled the bear along and led the way.

Stussy didn't follow, but simply watched Dimon leave.

Charlotte Linlin teased, "Why aren't you sticking to the white beard anymore? Have you changed your target?"

“Newgate is nowhere near as fun as Dimon,” Stussy replied with a smile.

"Let's go find Kaido." Charlotte Linlin was speechless.

The two were walking together when a gunshot rang out. The bullet pierced Stusi's temple, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

Charlotte Linlin clicked her tongue and had to stop.

Their Observation Haki immediately locked onto their target, a rock about ten kilometers away to their right.

The girl playfully stuck out her tongue, holding a sniper rifle, and giggled.

"But... immortality?"

Stussy, whose forehead had been pierced, slowly stood up; the wound had already healed.

"I'm really angry! Why do you always hit me!" Stussy's eyes darkened. "Is it the Knights of God? Don't underestimate scientists, you bastards!"

Dimon followed Ivankov to a cave.

The cave is hiding many people, all of whom are slaves of the Celestial Dragons and are the targets of this hunting competition.

"Brother Ivankov, dear Bear!"

From the crowd, a petite little girl with light freckles on her face stepped forward.

"he is……"

“It’s the Rocks Pirates. I’m sorry, Ginny, the plan didn’t work out.” Ivankov apologized first, then tried to encourage everyone: “But he promised to get us out of here safely…”

"The Rocks Pirates!"
