That brat!!

Chinjao's expression was already very serious.

That level of power, that level of Haki —this is definitely not a simple kid!

"Hey, old man!"

Chinjao's grandson, a man named Lao G, exclaimed in surprise, "Are you alright?!"

"What could possibly happen to me!"

Chinjao roared angrily, "Don't interfere! All of you get out of the way! I'll handle this kid myself!"

Lao G hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily and led his brother and subordinates to the side.

The Happo Navy is not a legitimate organization; it's a violent group that runs rampant in the West Blue. As long as they can defeat their opponents, they don't care about any code of honor. If they can't beat someone in a one-on-one fight, they'll fight side by side.

But since Dong Liang had spoken, they couldn't say anything and could only quietly step aside.

"You made a great decision!"

Jack grinned as he watched the Chinjao slowly approach him.

If those guys make a move, then without a doubt, his companions will follow suit.

Having a general understanding of Chinjao's level, Jack believed that if that were the case, it would be a catastrophic blow to the Happo Navy.

"Enough with the nonsense, kid!"

The Chinjao's flat head was covered in dark Armament Haki. "Let me show you the power I once wielded across the seas!!"

"Hasshoken - Hasshoken: Wutou!!"

He leaped into the air, his body spinning in mid-air, his head hurtling towards Jack like a meteorite.

"The old man is finally going to show his true skills!"

Lao G's younger brother, a man named Abu, excitedly waved his fist to cheer on his grandfather, shouting, "Smash that guy!"

But his elder brother, Lao G, looked somewhat worried. Could they really win?

"Roaming the vast ocean? Ha!"

Jack sneered, his body, much taller than Chinjao's, advancing instead of retreating in the face of Chinjao's attack, shouting, "Fish-Man Karate - Shark Tile Straight Punch!"

Boom!!

The air currents surged.

Jack's fist and Chinjao's head were locked in a stalemate in mid-air.

But.

"Is that all the power you have? Then fly back to where you were!" Jack roared.

The muscles in his right arm twitched, and the veins bulged out like a giant dragon.

"Whoa!!"

Chinjao cried out in pain and was blasted away again, barely managing to land with a stagger.

"How is that possible?!"

Abu exclaimed in disbelief, "The old man's Hasshoken: Wutou... it's been knocked away?"

But before Chinjao could even get a foothold, Jack attacked again.

"Is that a legend from the high seas?"

On the hillside, Ulti watched Jack and Chinjao's fight and mocked, "Even Jack can't beat you."

"Sis, you can't beat Brother Jack either, can you?"

Page One rolled his eyes.

"Hey! Pay-tan! Is this how you talk to your dear sister?" Ulti felt that her younger brother was becoming more and more disobedient as he grew up, always contradicting her.

It must be because of Sirius! Cute Pay-tan will only idolize him instead of her older sister!

She angrily reached out and pinched Page One's face.

Page One quickly hid behind Sirius.

When my older sister is angry, only my older brother can save her.

Sirius ignored the siblings' antics; it was standard practice on the ship.

As Page One grows older, he becomes increasingly rebellious, and he enjoys arguing with his sister more and more, which is quite different from the Page One in the original comics.

Faced with such a younger brother, Ulti had no choice but to transform into a devil and teach him a lesson about the consequences of disobeying his older sister.

On the icy plains, Jack and Chinjao's battle continues.

Jack's fists were like heavy hammers; each punch that landed on Chinjao's head made him tremble and his face contort.

"It seems this legendary figure isn't all that powerful after all."

Luo chuckled and said, "How did he manage to fight someone like Roger Karp back then?"

I'm curious too.

Sirius thought to himself, both were over seventy years old, but Sengoku the Sengoku beat up the Blackbeard Pirates, Iron Fist Garp Marco with a single punch, while Chinjao, at over seventy, was killed by Lao G.

What kind of product is Lao G?

The subordinates of Doflamingo's top executives.

It would be strange if he could gain the upper hand against Jack.

Although Jack is only twenty years old this year, he has already mastered the flowing Armament Haki, and is also proficient in the Six Powers and Fish-Man Technique. His strength is almost no less than that of the character who appeared in the original work.

Even though Chinjao isn't as old as he is in the original work, and is even stronger, he still has no chance of winning.

On the icy plains, Chinjao was being beaten back and forth. His once-proud Iron Head was now covered in bumps and bruises from Jack's beating, and his white beard and eyebrows were stained red with blood.

"Huff--Huff--Huff--"

After being punched away again, Chinjao gasped for breath, blood almost soaking his eyes.

"Old man!"

Lao G gritted his teeth.

Is this the Pirate Emperor?

One of his subordinates had already rendered the Dong Liang of the Happo Navy utterly powerless!

Mammoth Jack, that guy is a Devil Fruit Devil Fruit User! He didn't even use his Devil Fruit powers!

"Kid!! Don't think this is over!"

Chinjao roared, "I'll show you my strongest move!!"

He leaped up again, shouting, "Hasshoken Secret Technique - Dragon Without Cone - Nail Without Cone!"

An unprecedented and astonishing surge of energy gathered above his head, combining with Chinjao's Armament Haki, even causing Inazuma to flash in the sky.

Then, a destructive meteorite fell from the sky!

A strong wind blew in his face, and Jack grinned, "That move is at least somewhat decent, but—"

He clenched his right fist, "Fish-Man Karate Secret Technique - Demon Tile Straight Punch!!"

Compared to the astonishing spectacle of Chinjao's moves, Jack's punch seemed rather ordinary; it was simply a punch that was dark and fast.

However, there is no direct correlation between outward appearance and physical strength.

Boom!!

Thunder roared across the icy plains.

Iron Fist clashes with an iron head!

Jack sneered.

There wasn't even a stalemate; the Haki and fluctuations emanating from the Chinjao wrapped around his head seemed to have no effect whatsoever, utterly unable to withstand Jack's Iron Fist.

The Iron Fist dented the top of the Chinjao.

But then, something interesting happened.

The front half of the Chinjao's head was dented from the impact, and then suddenly, the back half bulged out, forming a sharp point!

Immediately afterwards, Chinjao was blasted away, like a volleyball that had been knocked out of bounds, jumping and gliding on the ice, before being punched directly by Jack and sent flying into the iceberg at the far end of the ice Iceburg.

Jack looked at his fist and began to question the meaning of life.

What just happened?

It was expected that the guy's head would be deformed, but the deformation was just too strange.

Is it over?

On the hillside, Luo asked.

"Not yet."

Yamato shook his head. "That guy is very tenacious!"

"No, it's over," Sirius said with a smile. "Let's go down."

"Huh?"

Yamato was very puzzled.

Later, in the distance, among the Iceburg at the edge of the ice field.

"Hahahaha!! I'm back! My proudest Cone Head is back!!"

Suddenly, a loud laugh rang out.

Jack frowned as he watched Chinjao leap out of the Iceburg and approach.

The old man was seriously injured; he was still spitting blood, walking unsteadily, and his whole body was trembling.

But he was laughing?

Or is he just smiling at himself?

Jack felt a chill run down his spine. Had he knocked this guy senseless?

"Old man?"

Lao G and Abu stared in shock at the pointed horn on the top of Chinjao's head.

The most powerful Cone Head has actually returned!

"Hahaha, Jack, right? You're my great benefactor!"

Chinjao had no intention of continuing the fight and shouted, "Let's end this battle here!"

"Ha?"

Jack was a little unsure of what the old man was up to.

Was he serious, or was he simply making excuses to surrender because he was scared of himself?

Isn't this great?

Sirius strolled over. "There was no need for a fight. If we must settle this, let's have a drinking contest at the banquet."

"Well said, Black Wolf!!"

Chinjao was overjoyed; nothing could make him happier than having his Cone Head back. He now looked at Koby affection than at his two grandsons.

"Let's have a feast! It's time to let the younger generation witness the drinking prowess of this old man who has roamed the seas!"

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly rolled back and he fainted.

"Old man!!"

The two grandsons exclaimed in surprise.

Jack's attack wasn't ineffective.

His extreme excitement kept him going for a while, but of course, it wouldn't last long.

Sirius, "My ship is nearby. If you don't mind, would you like us to treat him?"
