Technology Showdown! The Promised Land!

Teach does indeed have many flaws.

Greedy, lustful, and easily carried away by success.

But he also has one most significant advantage.

An extraordinary capacity for tolerance.

It was one thing to recruit the monsters imprisoned on Level 6 of Impel Down, but in the original work, he even tried to recruit Ace, who was pursuing him.

Upon encountering Aokiji, a defector from the Navy, his first reaction was to immediately recruit the man to his cause.

For Teach, as long as he could win over useful people, he didn't care about sacrificing his dignity.

It should be said that this is the only thing he has in common with his deceased Pops.

"Hahaha!"

Although Doflamingo broke his right arm with a single punch, his entire arm was now limp as if it had no bones, and the intense pain even caused Teach to sweat enough to soak through his bandages.

However, his laughter remained hearty. "Impressive power! Doflamingo, I acknowledge you! Even I would have a headache making an enemy of someone like you! It's definitely better to shake hands and make peace!"

Doflamingo was already severely injured and almost unconscious, was genuinely stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. "Good! It's great that we've made peace! Teach, we've always been partners!"

Beside him, Bege's lips twitched.

No, if you two make up like this, my position will become very awkward.

However, Teach wasn't oblivious to the atmosphere. He raised his intact left hand, patted Bege on the shoulder, and laughed, "From now on, let's get along well! Hehehehe!"

"Fufu, fufufu..."

Doflamingo also managed a somewhat strained laugh.

Although I don't know what Teach is thinking, at least he should be safe now.

On the rooftop.

"An interesting kid."

Kaido interest.

They are very good at assessing situations and situations.

Knowing that the blond brat posed a threat to his power, he decisively abandoned the idea of continuing the hostility.

This kind of decisiveness is something not everyone can do.

"This kid is really interesting."

Roa nodded in agreement.

This already shows the difference.

This is why Doflamingo is only Shichibukai, and Kaido and Akainu both look down on him, while Teach will be Four Emperors and a strong candidate for the final boss.

It's not just a difference in aptitude; it's more about personality, or rather, spirit.

Doflamingo is a fool who keeps talking about taking revenge on the World Government, but in fact, he always tries to emulate the Celestial Dragons.

Teach, on the other hand, is a truly ruthless character who will do anything for his dream, even throwing away his dignity and face. Paramount War, in order to survive, he was even able to beg for mercy from Whitebeard, showing no bottom line and yet not caring at all.

They were never on the same level from the start.

"In addition,"

Roa suddenly said with great interest, "Big Brother Kaido, you'll find it quite interesting when you see Teach's face too."

Suddenly, I'm even more looking forward to the upcoming class reunion.

"Huh? What do you mean by that, kid?"

Hahaha! You'll find out soon enough!

Therefore, I really dislike Roa's cryptic personality.

I really wanted to punch him, but I couldn't beat him anymore.

That night.

Roa's bedroom.

Having finished his Kaido, Roa leaned back in the spacious bathtub with a look of delight on his face. The water, which would be too hot for most people, was just right for Roa.

"Indeed, a nice bath before bed is the ultimate indulgence."

Roa closed his eyes comfortably, leaning lazily against the smooth bathtub wall, the steam blurring his features.

"What are you standing there for? Come over here and give me a scrub."

At the edge of the bathtub, Kozuki Toki bit her lower lip tightly, her face flushed crimson as if dripping blood.

Her gaze was fixed on the misty tiles in the distance, as if there was something extremely attractive there, and she dared not, nor was she able to, turn her eyes to Roa in the bathtub.

"To force a woman in this way,"

Her voice trembled almost imperceptibly, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between her teeth, "But... but this is definitely not the demeanor of a strong person..."

Although she dared not disobey Roa's orders, it did not mean that Kozuki Toki had lost her own will.

The intense shame, like vines, coiled around my heart, mixed with unvented anger, burning within my chest.

That's why Roa found it more interesting.

"The actions of the strong?"

Roa didn't even lift his eyelids, and lazily said, "If I can't do whatever I want, then what's the point of being a strongman?"

"At that time, well, you didn't want to either..."

A wave of shame washed over him like an icy tide, Kozuki Toki was already moving uncontrollably.

She could not defy Roa.

She slowly moved to the edge of the bathtub, hesitant, yet with a resolute air of facing death.

As her thin clothes slipped off, Kozuki Toki stepped into the bath, gently lifting Roa's muscular right arm.

The warm pool water enveloped her body, and the moment her fingertips touched the boy's skin, a slight electric current made her almost pull her hand back.

She could only muster all her strength to steady herself and carefully begin to wipe the arm that contained terrifying power with a soft cloth.

What a despicable man!

What a twisted and vicious soul lies hidden beneath that handsome exterior!

But,

"Roa, why?"

Unable to understand, Kozuki Toki finally couldn't help but ask, "Why did you do this?"

Roa already possesses unparalleled power, is the ruler of a country, and even owns half of Wano Country.

He had everything: power, wealth, authority, and even beautiful women.

He already possesses everything that ordinary people can only dream of! He has already reached the pinnacle of the world!

Why use such pure and unparalleled malice to trample on this world?

Roa opened his eyes, his gaze shifting and settling on Kozuki Toki Shi's beautiful face.

He scratched his head somewhat sheepishly, looking rather simple and honest. "It's embarrassing to admit, but it's actually because of... my appetite."

"..."

Kozuki Toki's fair face instantly lost all color.

She remembered what Kaido had said before: Roa feeds on human suffering.

So, is that why?

It's because of this ridiculous reason!!

She suddenly felt nauseous.

Because of this, is Roa even planning to take over this entire sea area?

A chilling despair suddenly surged from the deepest part of her heart, and Kozuki Toki's shoulders abruptly trembled. For no reason, scalding tears suddenly streamed down her face.

Perhaps she is crying for the world.

How could such a monster exist in the world!

How will he ultimately transform this world?

Perhaps, we could try sending him to the future?

No!

This is completely meaningless; monsters will still be monsters in the future, and people in the future will still suffer disasters.

Roa, why, why is there someone like you?

Kozuki Toki's shoulders trembled slightly, her emotions indescribable.

Roa, however, let out a comfortable hum.

They even have dessert while you take a bath, not bad!

The next day, the Snail Fleet set sail again.

However, this time, the Beasts Pirates left Wano Country along with them.

Roa and his uncles and aunts had arranged a meeting place and were on their way there.

There are two main reasons why the meeting place wasn't chosen to be in Wano Country.

One reason is that people come from different distances, so they can't arrive at the same time.

The second reason is that Kaido worried that if the negotiations break down and a fight breaks out, Wano Country, the meeting place, will be in trouble.

The monsters, enraged, unleash their attack, and the entire island may suffer irreparable destruction.

So, let's just find a deserted island that's close to everyone and not crowded. It won't take much effort.

Meanwhile, on a platform on the snail's back.

"Mwahahahaha! Judge! I haven't been idle these past few years!"

Sain twisted his neck, making a crackling sound, "This time I'm going to show you who the better scientist is among us!"

Across from him, Judge, the chief scientist of Calamity Company, curled his lip in disdain. "Enough with the nonsense. If you really want to impress me, produce results!"

"Hahaha! You idiot, you better open your eyes wide and watch carefully! Aaaaaah!"

Suddenly, Sain began to scream.

His body began to swell at that instant.

Thick scales began to emerge from his body, and a thick tail grew from his rear, with a heavy hammer extending from its end.

"Oh?"

On one side of the platform, Roa, who was holding Yamato teasing Yamato, suddenly brightened up, "Ancient Zoan?"

Kaido, sitting cross-legged beside him, casually replied while chugging wine from his gourd, "Hanafusa has been collecting Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit, and there just happens to be one that suits this guy."

To be honest, Kaido was very unwilling to accept this.

Roa himself is one thing, but now he even has two Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit User among his subordinates!

Who exactly is the Beasts Pirates?

"Oh, this is..."

Roa clearly saw Sien's current appearance, "The Ankylosaurus form of the Dragon-Dragon Fruit?"

It was clad in heavy armor, and its thick, long tail had a heavy hammer at the end.

Without a doubt, this is the famous Ankylosaurus among dinosaurs.

The Brachiosaurus Form was eaten by Winch Green, but after receiving a fruit in return, is it still a dinosaur?

"Mwahahaha! Judge! Look!"

The enormous dinosaur, over twenty meters long, laughed loudly, "This is my achievement!"

His body bears numerous signs of modification; his armor is almost entirely metallic, making it clear that his defensive capabilities are extraordinary.

The heavy hammer at the end of the tail was the focus of the modification; it was not only transformed into a large iron hammer, but also had a thick cannon muzzle on it.

"How about it, Judge! My Devil Fruit power has been modified!"

That's interesting.

Roa thought.

Queen isn't just a simple body modifier!

If it's a body modification, where is he hiding the massive metal warhammer within his body?

His research proved one thing: Devil Fruit abilities can also be modified.

It's essentially like adding some DLC to the base game.

However, Judge simply crossed his arms, his face full of arrogance, and said, "Is that all? Only an idiot like you would think this is amazing!"

His proud research findings were scorned, and Sain instantly flew into a rage, "You bastard Judge! Then come and experience my technology for yourself! I'll crush you into a meat patty right now!"

"Idiot, scientists don't go to the battlefield!"

The former mercenary leader Judge, naturally said that.

"You want to see my skills? Then let them be your opponents!"

Judge clapped his hands.

Five figures shot over instantly and landed neatly in front of him.

"Um?"

Sain was slightly taken aback, then subconsciously looked closely.

"Hahahaha! Are you trying to make me laugh to death? Judge, aren't these the boring androids you created, you idiot? You think I've never seen them before?!"

It's basically just a teenage version of Clone soldiers!

"They actually think they can fight me with these guys? I'll stand here and let them hit me, and they won't even be able to hurt a hair on my head!"

"You said it!"

Judge smirked, "Then let's not hold back, charge, Calamity Knights!"

Before the words were even finished, the attack had already begun!

The giant fireball hurled by Spark Red hurtled towards us, the dazzling Inazuma released by Electric Blue tore through the air, and the sharp wind blades swung by Storm Fury whistled through the air.

Three destructive forces rushed toward the target almost simultaneously.

"Huh?! What's going on--"

Before the bewilderment on Sain's face could even turn into astonishment, his massive body was completely engulfed by the violent energy!

Boom--!

Thunder roared, flames surged, and the wind howled! The three violent elemental forces surged and merged, instantly engulfing the enormous armored dragon completely!

"Wow!!!"

A piercing scream instantly pierced through the dust and soared into the sky.

It seems that Queen is still far from reaching his future potential.

Roa narrowed his eyes with great interest.

Kaido's eyes lit up.

"Ga--zhi--!!"

With a furious roar, the enormous ankylosaur figure burst forth from the smoke.

However, he looked utterly disheveled at this moment. His once-proud, sturdy metal scales were charred and torn in many places, and his massive body was unsteady on its feet, staggering as if it would collapse at any moment.

Before his angry question could even be uttered, the ghostly figure of the Poison Pink had already closed in!

A purple, highly poisonous mist, carrying an ominous, sweet scent, erupted forth!

"Wow! Cough cough! What the hell is this?!"

Caught off guard, Sain inhaled several mouthfuls and was instantly choked, coughing violently. His massive body staggered backward uncontrollably!

Moreover, as an expert in drug use, just a few puffs were enough to make him instantly aware of his situation, with the deep-seated numbness and burning sensation reaching his very bones.

"Poison?! You actually used poison! Judge, you bastard, you're so despicable! I haven't even had a chance to use it yet!"

Sion, filled with shock and rage, suppressed his discomfort and swung his massive tail violently, the cannon-like muzzle at its end flashing with a dangerous light. "Then you'll have to taste this yourself!"

Energy surged wildly at the cannon's muzzle, Sion's counterattack was poised to launch!

Only.

Boom!!!

A massive, yet ferociously powerful black shadow, like a runaway battering ram, slammed into Sion's battered and massive body from the side at an astonishing speed!

"Wow!!!"

Already severely injured and with his position unstable, how could Sion withstand this premeditated and brutal attack?

His enormous ankylosaur body, now like a heavy rag doll, let out an even more pitiful howl as it was knocked off its balance, its four feet leaving the ground, tumbling and flying away in a sorry state!

He is Winch Green, who has transformed into a gigantic dinosaur. Among the five brothers, he possesses overwhelming power.

"This is--"

Kaido's eyes lit up as he watched the Five Color Squad's performance.

"An upgraded version of Clone soldiers, also a product of Lineage Factor technology."

Roa shrugged, looking completely nonchalant.

"That--"

Kaido's burning gaze immediately fell upon them.

But.

"Excuse me, Big Brother Kaido,"

Roa smiled. "Because production capacity is very low, we are not selling them to the public for the time being."

To be honest, expanding the production capacity of the Calamity Knights would require more funds.

Where can I get a large amount of money all at once?

Hmm, there really is such a place, where gold is practically free, and if you're lucky, you might even get a powerful Logia Devil Fruit!

It's decided, I'll go there after this trip!

"Tsk."

Kaido his tongue in displeasure.

Seeing something but not being able to have it—there's nothing more frustrating than that.

Lineage Factor Warrior?

I want one too!

That bastard Roa, not only is he improving rapidly, but his power is also expanding at an astonishing pace!

Two days after the minor incident, the Snail Fleet arrived at the agreed meeting place.

Some people have already arrived.

"Heh heh heh heh! Kid! If your so-called grand plan doesn't satisfy me, don't blame me for throwing a tantrum!!"
